message: In my opinion, the Library of Congress seems to be a part of the US Federal Government, and its reports are therefore public domain and can be used as a basis.
That said, when quoting sources, it is far better to write it as quotes and reference them using footnotes than simply to copy the text and have a generic reference. The easier it is to see what's quoted and what's not, the better. --Alvestrand (talk) 20:13, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

I think that part of the problem is that few worthwhile sources will bother to discuss such a trivial topic.

message: Check grammar, punctuation, and sentence format. Some commas that were not necessary were noticed (i.e. “The reality was, that cremation via funeral pyre was a skilled task that takes many hours to be done properly”). Either remove the comma or change the format of this sentence because it is slightly awkward. Overall well done though!
Try to add more primary sources to describe the Historical facts about Pyre. Need more detailed description for each country’s Pyre. 
Most of the titles of contents include pyre, however, suddenly a word “cremation” comes out. It would be better if it is changed to something like “Roman Pyre”. It feels like it is off the topic.

Talk:Fast folding algorithm

message: I implemented an FFA in python some time ago, so I can give a rough description of how it works. 
During one pass of the FFA, all periods between n samples and n+1 samples are folded at once. The key idea is to divide the time series into m nonoverlapping blocks of n samples. Then the period-n profile is obtained by simply adding all the blocks. For a period between n and n+1, if one were simply folding the data, one would accumulate the profiles, but because the period is slightly longer than n, the phase would drift slightly. When the phase was wrong by one bin, you would begin cyclically shifting profiles to compensate for the drift. Thus to look at all possible periods, you should look at many different sequences of cyclic shifts. But the set of folds of m periods can be obtained from the set of folds of m/2 periods on the first and second halves by combining them both with and without shifting. So there's a divide-and-conquer algorithm.
In a way, this is very much like an FFT algorithm where the complex values have been replaced by profiles and the multiplication by "twiddle factors", roots of unity, has been replaced by cyclic shifts.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.95.19.27 (talk) 07:33, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

message: Under "Education" it is written "She received her English Literature degree from Cambridge University." This is surprising.
Firstly, Cambridge did not award degrees to women until 1948 (that might be seen as a technicality - Mme Gilot could certainly have studied for a degree and perhaps received a form of certificate).
Cambridge degrees require years of residence and study (a minimum of two years even in wartime, and war had not yet started).
On her biographical website, it is written "In the fall and winter [of 1938], Gilot attends the Sorbonne and the British Institute in Paris where she completes a degree in English literature from Cambridge University the following spring." Elsewhere online it is said that the then British Institute taught English language to French students.
