Talk:Cornford & Cross

message: Removed these two paragraphs that are copied, almost exactly as is, from http://www.ngca.co.uk/home/default.asp?id=76
:Matthew Cornford and David Cross have created a unique body of work made both in the public realm and for galleries. In the main, their way of working has been to respond to a particular context or situation, by examining the problems that arise out of it. Accordingly, each of their projects has been radically different, not only in form but in function. Equally, the artists have not worked in a single media, but produced sculpture and installations, worked with video and photography, and created one-off events and sound works.
:One particular focus for the artists has been creating site-specific and commissioned projects for public spaces; architectural and sculptural interventions in the public realm. Often, these have been provocative, testing the limits of what shape artworks can take and how they contribute to our quality of life. As almost all these projects have been deliberately temporary, the artists' intention prior to undertaking each has been that they would be experienced primarily - and indeed located in - their photographic legacy.

Talk:Maasai religion

message: Hi.  I tried to alter the spelling of Masai to Maasai in the title, but was unable to do so.  The reason I attempted this change is it seems the generally accepted (English) spelling is Maasai (which I'm guessing comes from Maa, the word for their language, according to the article), rather than Masai. I was attempting to facilitate some kind of standardization/conformity of the spelling on Wikipedia.  Under the "See also" section of the "Maasai" article I changed the spelling from "Masai mythology" to "Maasai mythology" in anticipation of being able to correct the spelling of the title here, but broke the link between the two due to the change in spelling.  I'm giving this background for this reason: Is there a way to correct the spelling on this article title so it will be spelled correctly & can be reconnected to the other article as a result?  If you know how, please do so, as I don't know how to do it.  Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Leia tyndall (talk • contribs).

replies: text: There's an understatement. The existence and premise of this article violate NPOV in the most basic fashion. Equating religion to mythology is taking a single point of view.--Buckboard 20:45, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There is one problem with the mythology-religion view stated above. You are correct, not all religions should be considered simply 'mythology', but you cannot seperate them, especially in ancient culuture. The mythology given above explains the Maasai's idea of why the sun shines, why the moon looks the way it does, and why some people have cattle when others have grain. Mythology is used by a people to expalin the world around them, as is done in this article with the Maasai. In this instance and many others, you cannot seperate the myth from the religion.  It just so happens that this particular myth directly feeds into their daily religion and thus, can't be seperated. In ancient religions, you can not use such a simple rule for division; an editor has to look at each story and decide how much the mythology is tied into the practiced religion. --Vickler (talk) 16:59, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion/User:Zenosaga/Neanderthal theory

message: Modify. "The word theory has a number of distinct meanings in different fields of knowledge, depending on their methodologies and the context of discussion.In common usage, people often use the word theory to signify a conjecture, an opinion, or a speculation. In this usage, a theory is not necessarily based on facts; in other words, it is not required to be consistent with true descriptions of reality" source : Wikipedia.
So it can be labeled as a theory even if from a scientific perspective it is an unproven conjecture. Please consider the "9/11 conspiracy theories" on Wikipedia as an example. Maybe "Neanderthal hypothesis" would be better instead? Deleting this entry will destroy an interesting content.  Alfred Duroyon 74.15.159.141 19:50, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Prior to 1828

message: I went to school in Dahlonega (Lumpkin Middle) and we were taught that gold was originally discovered in 1828 by a man named Benjamin Parks who tripped over a large gold nugget while deer hunting. I have no historical facts to back this with, but someone might. I believe it comes from a book called "Gold in Them There Hills". The author's name was Kenimer and she was purported to be the grandmother of our school principal.
Edit: I found evidence that confirms what I was saying: Kenimer, Doris Bray. Gold in Them Thar Hills. Gainesville, Ga.: Matthews Printing Co., 1980.

message: There's no way that the University of Cape Town should top this list when another university (in Prague) uses these initials and when one of the most-used abbreviations for Coordinated Universal Time is "UCT", AND there's an AIRPORT with that IATA code "UTC". IATA codes are UNIQUE, while the initials of universities are not. Someone with some alumnus pride or the agenda of advancing the University of Cape Town is hijacking Wikipedia for a promotional purpose and you should not let them do so. I had never heard of the University of Cape Town before today and I don't believe I will ever hear of them again for the rest of my life. Someone has a seriously overinflated idea of how important that University is. They do not rate having an article about them as the default destination for "UCT" nor as an "above-the-title credit" in the disambiguation-page when these initials are far more likely to refer to something else (in the mind of the Wikipedia user) than to refer to this University of Cape Town.

Talk:Stirling's theorem

message: First, define a sequence of positive numbers that corresponds to the limit in the theorem (by a factor of √2π):
:a_n := \frac{n!}{\sqrt{n}} \left( \frac{e}{n} \right)^n .
Next, show that the sequence converges to a real number α by using the ratio of successive terms:
 \begin{align}
\frac{a_n}{a_{n+1}} & = \frac{ \frac{n!}{\sqrt{n}} \left( \frac{e}{n} \right)^n }{ \frac{(n+1)!}{\sqrt{n+1}} \left( \frac{e}{n+1} \right)^{n+1} } \\ 
& = \frac{1}{n+1} \sqrt{ \frac{n+1}{n} } \left( \frac{1}{e} \frac{(n+1)^{n+1}}{n^n} \right) \\ 
& = \frac{1}{e} \left( 1+\frac{1}{n} \right)^{n+ 1/2}
\end{align} 
By taking the natural logarithm of the ratio, it is possible to set up an asymptotic expression.
 \begin{align}
\log \left( \frac{a_n}{a_{n+1}} \right) & = \left( n + \frac{1}{2} \right) \log \left( 1 + \frac{1}{n} \right) - 1 \\
& = \left( n + \frac{1}{2} \right) \left( \frac{1}{n} - \frac{1}{2n^2} + \frac{1}{3n^3} + \mathcal{O} \left( \frac{1}{n^4} \right) \right) \\
& = \frac{1}{12n^2} + \mathcal{O} \left( \frac{1}{n^3} \right) 
\end{align} 
(Note the cancellation required for the last expression.) This implies that eventually
: 0 < \log \left( \frac{a_n}{a_{n+1}} \right) \le \frac{1}{6n^2} .
So for M > N,
:\log \left( \frac{a_N}{a_M} \right) = \sum_{i=N}^{M-1} \log \left( \frac{a_i}{a_{i+1}} \right) \le \sum_{i=N}^{M-1} \frac{1}{6i^2} \le \frac{\pi^2}{36}.
(See Basel problem.) A lower bound

Talk:ANOVA gauge R&R

message: So this is about all Wikipedia has on the subject huh?</br>
The thing is, people regularly make hundred million dollar decisions based on results from these things. </br>
More often than not the study is calculated with software or spreadsheet coming from who knows where, numbers go in, numbers come out and nobody involved knows what the heck is going on inside the black box. Run the same test again, get different results - a bit of a replicability problem there. Find a different black box, input same numbers, get significantly different results - a reproducability problem.</br>
Closest I've come to finding a reference example of this kind of study is here MSA_Reference_Manual_4th_Edition.pdf page 127</br>
Problem is, if you redo the calculation yourself you are not going to get exact same results unless you introduce the exact same rounding/loss of significance errors that are done in this "golden" example. This is for GaugeR&R with mean/range method by the way, closest thing to canon reference I have found in any case. 4th edition(Is this latest even?) reference manual By Chrysler, Ford and GM.</br>
Frankly the entire thing smells of consultant job security, but eh.. if you can't beat them - join them.

replies: text: As a scientist turned metrologist who uses this form of study regularly, I can confirm that the people using this are metrologists, not scientists. The difference? A metrologist's task is to measure parts, lots of parts. It's like a real-world version of a monte carlo simulation, as frightening as that sounds. They make and measure hundreds of parts with the goal of saying that this or that technique results in a statistically significant improvement, without understanding why (whereas a scientist could tell you why by studying just a few parts). So if GRR looks like shake-and-bake pseudoresearch, that's because it is designed to be performed by people with a high-school level statistics background. 2620:10D:C091:480:0:0:0:19FF (talk) 18:02, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Targowica Confederation

message: This article makes no sense. IT should be removed or at least completely redone .
For the first thing this article is a stub and should be labeled as such - it says hardly anything about the Targowica Confederation save for enumerating it's prominent members. 
The other problem is that Targowica was NOT an military organisation - it was a merely puppet of Catherine II of Russia, it haven't had any "forces" to speak of, the War in Defense of the Constitution was fought and won entirely by the Russian army. Given the way it is written here one may think that it was a polish civil war, when in fact it was a fight with an armed intervention of the Russians, trying to restore their protectorate over Poland. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.18.170.26 (talk) 21:55, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Burning of Jaffna Public Library/Archive 1

message: :::::::::: Exactly! Wikipedia:WikiProject Sri Lanka Reconciliation is an ongoing mediation effort. It is bipartisan, including Sinhalese as well as Tamils. The classification of sources has been reached in consensus, which is quite an achievement for two factions who are so utterly at odds!
::::::::::  The classification "Qualified Sources" is a compromise between Reliable Sources and unreliable sources. This is necessary because it so happens that there are many borderline reliable sources in the Sri Lanka conflict, and discussions of whether they are RS or UnRS have not reached consensus in the past. (Only one reliable news agency - BBC - sends reporters to Sri Lanka, and they can't be everywhere.)

Talk:Prince Alexander of Hesse and by Rhine

message: There seems to be a lot of talk in this article about the supposedly scandalous nature of Prince Alexander's marriage.  This seems kind of hyperbolic - it's not as though morganatic marriages were unknown, and the fact that Julia was given a title by her brother-in-law only a week after the marriage suggests that Ludwig III was not all that upset about it.  This was only one in a series of morganatic marriages by German and other princes in the nineteenth century - just looking through genealogies, I count about a dozen such marriages in the decades leading up to Alexander's marriage.  One such marriage was that of the head of the whole house of Hesse, the Elector Frederick William, who had contracted a morganatic marriage some decades before.  I'm not sure what the truth of this story is, but the account here seems embellished. john k (talk) 04:01, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
