Wikipedia talk:Requests for checkuser/Case/Mattisse

message: Responding to Daniel.Bryant note. Part of the motivation to this RFCU is that some users are repeatidly branding users as sockpuppets of Mattise. If we assume the negative (i.e. they are not socks) then this is causing those users un-necessary distress. I am think of taking the dispute to WP:DR, but before that happens it will be easier to establish one way or the other whether there is a sock-puppet element. --Salix alba (talk) 11:51, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed. That sounds fair enough. However, filing an RFCU to "clear the air" is not disruptive; only in blatantly-obvious attempts at disruption is it warranted to accuse the filer of the RFCU of violating WP:POINT. Daniel.Bryant 12:06, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Larry Yaeger

message: Why is this article in Wikipedia? The article gives the impression that he is a scientist - however, his publication list i.e. in dblp is rather sparse. Especially if you compare it to other, well known scientists in his field. The article does not mention any substantial contributions to science. The "Polyworld" program (which also has an wikipedia article), seems like a rather trivial visualisation of a genetic algorithm. The article doesn't give any background information on this person, i.e., academic career. 
99.186.237.180 (talk) 04:14, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes this article has been mostly just sitting here for a couple years without significant expansion. It could use a lot more love and care. Since he spent a significant part of his career in industry instead of academia, I'm not sure we could measure his notability in the same way as a pure academic / scientist. You would have to weigh in on the Apple Newton work and other things. But I'm not sure exactly how to compare. - Owlmonkey (talk) 05:49, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Gabriel Voisin

message: The written caption on this photograph of the Voisin brothers at the Library of Congress appears to indicate that the brother denoted as Gabriel in the Wikipedia photo caption is actually Charles. Can anybody clear this up?
*Cleared up by LOC. It turns out that Bain Photo Service got the name reversed. The brother on the left is indeed Gabriel. LOC will eventually put a subject note on the photo's page.
::So Bain made a mistake(?) But someone also wrote apparently on the original that Charles is on the left. And when I look at it, of these two gents in the picture (who should've been ~26 and ~24 at the time), I'd hazard a guess that the guy on the left is the younger, i.e. Charles. Possibly independently of this picture's provenance, at AirFrance, I see a very similar portrait of the other guy reversed titled Gabriel...

message: For the most part this article is cited well, but a few things in Early Life and Recognition seem to be missing citations. All the info included is relevant, and maybe even sparse in some places. For example, 2003-present doesn’t have a lot of resent info, and Personal Life is a bit short. The sites that information is drawn from are neutral enough because they represent publishers and biography cites as well as official awards cites. They also represent a good variety.

Talk:Powerball (Australia)

message: The US Powerball game, I believe, was invented so that players could win by matching only ONE number (the PowerBALL). The US games Mega Millions and Hot Lotto, as well as others, allow this. Yet, the Australian lotteries did not have that in mind when it was brought across the Pacific. You need THREE numbers (2+1 or 3+0) to win Down Under. 216.179.123.146 17:44, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Simply put: why? 12 games seems like such a strange number and there's nothing else in the article to suggest that playing 12 games has some significance. Also bear in mind that you cannot just divide the 76,767,600 in 76,767,600:1 and call that the odds of winning once in 12 games; the Binomial Distribution strongly disagrees with that. I'd suggest that this article uses only a single table which merges all the information (and getting rid of this "12" business.) I'll give it some time before making the changes just in case somebody points out all the sense I've missed! JaeDyWolf ~ Baka-San (talk) 16:46, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Odds based on 12 games" 

message: I am trying to calculate the odds for a "Powerhit" game (20 games including all PowerBall numbers 1...20). This would reduce PowerBall to a 7 out of 35 lotto game. Applying (N over K) = 35!/K!/(35-K)! with K=7...2 I am getting odds of 6,724,520 | 1,623,160 | 324,632 | 52,360 | 6,545 | 595 respectively. This seems to be at "Odds" with the table!

Considering the prominent projects that they clearly have done, it seems somewhat likely that this may well be true and that they are not excited about claiming responsibility for helping to remove this beloved landmark.

Talk:Profit-à-prendre

message: The existing page at Profit (real estate) is much the better article, but it is clear the two articles are about the same thing (profits a prendre) and they should be merged. 
I am suggesting that the correct place for them to go is under the heading profit a prendre because:
* it avoids overloading the term profit - otherwise readers have to use a disambiguation page
* profit is short for profit a prendre, and it is probably sensible to use the whole phrase as the page title, even if it is pointed to by redirects etc

The bogies (arms with a wheel at each end) should be to the front, and the rockers (arms with a wheel at one end and a pivot connection to a bogie at the other end) should be to the rear.
# The suspension of the chassis is not modeled correctly. The chassis does not remain level regardless of the terrain. Per the text of the article, the chassis is attached via a differential gear so that its pitch angle is always the average of the pitch angles of the two rocker arms.

Wikipedia talk:Statistics on WikiProject creation

message: Hello. The WikiProject Council has recently updated the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory.  This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.   B2T2 13:35, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors.
