message: This article needs some cleanup for NPOV. It is pretty clear that a former crewmember added the paragraph about the events of September 1, 1983.

Talk:Paul Hudson

message: This editorial, where he argues that there is no global warming but instead global cooling was my first introduction to this person.  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8299079.stm  He seems to be quite out there in terms of his positions so its surprising that there's nothing on his wiki page.  Not only is he a skeptic of the theory in general.  He apparently does not acknowledge basic climate records even for the last few years. 18:16, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: "Out there"?  Not really.  All he was doing there was drawing attention to some debates and arguments around climate change. There's not much in this recent piece in terms of "positions".  --Dannyno (talk) 19:54, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: This is the first time I've added to a Talk page so apologies in advance if I get something wrong.  He has a blog on the BBC site (http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/paulhudson/) which may not be openly sceptical in content but plays a "Oh there're all sorts of views out there - who's to know for sure..." line.  He publicises papers from the journal E&E (http://www.multi-science.co.uk/ee.htm) which has a, er, questionable history of peer-review rigour, one could say.  In the first article mentioned above, which became the first post in the blog he wrote: "For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures."

*Second, simplify the language used in the article so that it can be more easily understood.
*Third, review all text for grammatical errors, in both languages.

Talk:John Porter (musician, born 1947)

message: According to All Music (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&token=&sql=33:hxfrxzlrldje) John Porter has a writing credit on The Smiths song 'Panic', found on the album 'The World Won't Listen'.
He also gets a credit for 'Money changes everything' on the same album. I can't find my CD copy of 'The World Won't Listen' so I can't check the sleeve notes.
Perhaps if somebody does have a copy to hand they could look into this?
No idea what other Smiths songs he may have a credit on. According to the mp3 tagging that Windows Media Player does, none.
:I think Allmusic is simply wrong, I've checked the sleeve notes and those songs are credited to Morrissey and Marr only. I have "Panic" on 4 different albums and it's always Morrissey/Marr credited only. All original Smiths songs are Morrissey/Marr except the instrumentals which are Marr.

Talk:Compartmental models in epidemiology

message: Herrmann et al. argue that "none of the above models, currently predicting the COVID-19 pandemic, take into consideration the structure underlying the human interaction network, thus limiting the possible mitigation strategies that can be considered." and "Current COVID-19 models are based on differential equations or random diffusions which assume that human interaction behaviours are generally homogeneous (i.e. alike). It is, however, well-documented that many biological interactions, including human face-to-face communications, are not homogeneous and not random", see https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1478-3975/aba8ec - anyone wants to comment or integrate?

replies: text: Yup. There are issues with the way this article cites COVID and uses COVID examples. We should strive to make this article a bit more general, and use a variety of examples from many diseases, and limit the COVID examples. Particularly concerning is the Ohio-data figure that shows multiple COVID waves and uses it as an example for the SIR and SIRV model. Neither of these models can predict more than a single wave. So this multi-wave example does not belong as a figure illustrating these models in an encyclopedia article. Jaredroach (talk) 20:03, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Distraction graphic must go 

message: This proof is flawed. At first someone could easily notice that it is obviously not equal to 1. The "simple proof" posted seems to make sense but it doesn't. One problem there may be the way that infinity is defined. It is very misleading to regular people, but since as far as math goes, using number 1 as the answer is very good for performing calculations with it. 
1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 ..... 1/2^(∞-2) + 1/2^(∞-1) + 1/2^∞
( 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 ..... 1/2^(∞-2) + 1/2^(∞-1) + 1/2^∞ )*2 =
1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 ..... 1/2^(∞-3) + 1/2^(∞-2) + 1/2^(∞-1)
And not the same as the top one. 
Then you can notice that due to the fact of how "infinity" ( ∞ ) is defined in math that it is the same but really it isn't.
 ∞    1      ∞      1
 ∑  ----- =  ∑  ---------
X=1  2^X    X=1 2^(∞-X+1)
 ∞      1
 ∑  --------- = UNDEFINED
X=1 2^(∞-X+1)
 ∞    1
 ∑  ----- = UNDEFINED, NOT 1
X=1  2^X

:Grumble.  We've dealt with this before.  See, for example .999....  — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 12:19, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I am starting to believe that it isn't worth it discussing this with others. It obviously is not 1. This really makes me sad, seeing how someone would believe that it really is 1. 0.999... is not equal to one. 1>0.999... which is really the truth. The proof that attempts to prove it uses a faulty assumption, you can not multiply infinity. 0.999.... cannot be multiplied because it never ends. But multiplication by 10 is also believed to be simply moving the decimal point. That isn't what multiplication is, especially not with imaginary numbers.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.191.67.15 (talk) 03:35, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
