thread_title: Writing Math Notation

message: It's mathematically false that the average relative fitness goes down with the addition of a creature with greater or less than average fitness. You have to factor in the population change, which changes all the frequencies, and the result is that unless the creature is the fittest, the mean changes in the direction of the creature's fitness relative to the mean. A new fittest drives down the relative fitness by changing the max. 
The equation layout to see this:
avg fitness = (1/N)*(sum over all alleles)[fitness*total creatures with given allele]
new average fitness = (1/(N+1))*(fitness of new allele + the same sum as above)
You can treat the new creature as if its allele is unique even if its degenerate because the sum is the same either way.

thread_title:  Mutation math 

message: The section "Causes" states "Most mutations are deleterious, and occur at a high rate." This is perhaps a bit broad and a bit wrong. Most mutations have little effect on fitness, though the larger the effect the more likely they are to be deleterious. The per-base mutation rate is extremely low (on the order of 1 in ten billion), though since genomes are often billions of bps, and germ cells are generated after tens of cell divisions, the per genome per generation mutation rate is relatively high.Paulhummerman (talk) 22:49, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

message: Whether a particular instrument is called a borescope or an endoscope is up to the manufacturer, not what it is used for, nor what its diameter is.
Some of the best mechanical-use scopes are called endoscopes.
I have met people who would limit the term "borescope" to relatively small diameter instruments, such as those used to inspect the bore of a rifle.

replies: text: A boroscope is purely optical in design function.  The typically means a multi-stranded fiber optic cable or a hollow tube.  An endoscope is a camera on the end of some cable like assembly coupled with a display device. Early boroscopes were literally straight tubes with lenses near the ends similar in construction to a refractor type telescope hence the term "bore..."  These have been around for over a century. The endoscope has an image sensor at the "end."  Now you know there is a distinct difference.  Someone willing to edit can fix this please. 216.49.255.43 (talk) 01:49, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Voronezh

message: Hi, i'm a new user, and I just have a few suggestion.
I was born and raised until the age 11 in Voronezh.
This city is famous for its fighting during World War II, when Nazis occupied the left side of the river, and Russians were on the right. I was taught that in school, although I don't know if I can find references to that. 
Another thing that I think that should be included in the article is an exlanation of what Black Earth means. Black Earth is the most fertile soil the world, and that's the type of soil Voronezh has. It's just a suggestion. I don't really know how to edit, so I'll just leave it up to the professionals. Thanks.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.87.243.242 (talk • contribs).
:Thanks for your suggestion, an anonymous contributor.  We do actually have an article on Black Earth (see chernozem).  Since it is something that, strictly speaking, is not directly related to the city, no explanation need to be provided in the article.  It can, however, be mentioned and wikilinked to.
:As for WWII history, you are more than welcome to add that information yourself (just click the "edit this page" tab in the article).  Don't worry about screwing up something—you'll learn the ropes as you go, and meanwhile someone will always be there to make corrections.

message: In Malta at least, emphyteusis isn't assumed to be a perpetual right, and such a contract is qualified as being perpetual or temporary, the latter operating like a lease in English law.

Category talk:Mysore Division geography stubs

message: The districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi were unified for a long time. For ease of administration, they have been split into two. Political administration is just about the only category under which they are separate. They are extremely similar in terms of language, culture and geography. Hence this category was created. But I agree that this category does not conform to the wikipedia rules for geographical categories. The actual region (Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and the adjoining Kasaragod district in Kerala) comprise what is called as the Tulunadu region, based on the Tulu language that is spoken in those parts. I suggest that this category be renamed as "Tulunadu stubs".
We can, of course, work on a suitable stub template to make all the stubs uniform. But I request that this category NOT be removed.
