Talk:Wang Shiwei

message: hi all, I am not quite sure of the english translation of "¦«­ê". I'll try to do some research on it. But I hope someone would find an appropriate translation of the term. (0101LAMsy)
hi all my group members,
I can only find little information about Wang on the web, and I can't even find a photo of his. I may go to the library and search for more information about him. Hope that our page will have more information later. (0101CHANmw)
hello again!
yes, it's difficult to find information about Wang. There is little information availabled. Anyway I find one photo of him. However, it's quite blur, and I'll try to put up here some time later. (0101LAMsy)
Hi everyone!
should we divide the article into 6 sections? i mean dividing it according to the questions set. (0101TSANGlm)
Hi, guys. Yes, I agree with Tsang. We better divide our work into sections. This is definitely clearer and allows easier access to data, which is very important to nowadays' busy people. (0101WONGpl)
hihi, i do think we should divide it into 6 sections. try to search 'Ming Pao' ( which was done by last year's student ), u'll see it divided very clearly, but i don't know how can they divide it into different sections with different edit places. take a look at it.
thanks!
hello! i've read 野百合花 ( his famous work ) and tried to find out the elements of journalism in it. but i have problems understanding the elements, for example, what does it mean by 'provide a forum for public criticism'. if it's only the author criticizing something, does it match this element of journalism? (0101TSANGlm)
Hi, i got his pic from a book abt him. would that be better? Anyway, i'll try to finish the book asap and try to make our page more fruitful. I know it's tough, cuz it's really hard to find his info. Anyway, add oil, groupmates~ Btw, i found a timeline of him, should we add it in? (0101LAMkp)
hihi, yes I think your pic is better than mine, as it is clearer. I'll delete mine from the page. I think the idea of a timeline is good. Perhaps you can post it out and see how the others comment on it. Should we add a category stating all his works?  (0101LAMsy)
hello again, I have added two lists of the publication and translation works of Wang. However, I guess some are missing, and further research needed to be done. I think we should add the date of the work too. At this moment I have some of the dates, but miss the dates of 鬥爭, 陳老四, & 小長兒.
Also, can anyone find out the english translation of <<薩芙>> , the work of Alphonse Daudet (都德)? I have spent quite long hrs searching this =_= 0101LAMsy 16:21, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Beslan school siege/Archive 1

message: Why does this article mention Mashkadov instead of Shamil Basayev (who claimed responsibility for the Moscow attack and is considerably more likely to be behind this one)? Ambi 12:17, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Because Maskhadov has publicly denied any responsibility but nothing has been heard from Basayev. While it's certainly possible that his group is behind it, mentioning it at this stage would be pure speculation. -- ChrisO 12:55, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: The Chechen rebel leader Aslan Maskhadov has denied that his forces are involved in the siege, but the crisis is strikingly similar to the Moscow Theatre Siege of February 2002. Emphasis mine. My point is that at the moment, this section (whether intentionally or not) makes the implication that Maskhadov is linked to at least the Moscow siege, with the connotation that he may well also have been involved in this as well, though. Ambi 13:41, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm, perhaps it could be reworded to "Aslan Maskhadov has denied that his forces are involved in the siege. Shamil Basayev, who claimed responsibility for the Moscow Theatre Siege, has not yet commented on the situation, but there are various similarities between both crises." Any criticisms?

Talk:8128

message: :8,128 is the 127th triangular number, the 64th hexagonal number, the eighth 292-gonal number, and the fourth 1356-gonal number.
I just noticed a pattern to this. 8128 is the xth 3-, 6-, 292-, and 1356-gonal number, with x taking the values 4, 8, 64, 127. I have a feeling the above ought to say 8128 is the 128th triangular number. The sequence 4, 8, 64, 127 yields no results from Sloane's, but 4, 8, 64, 128 does. PrimeFan 22:42, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: :One property that 8128 doesn't share with all the other perfect numbers is that it is the sum of every fourth entry of a row in Pascal's triangle.
Removed, because I can't make head or tail of it. I've tried summing every fourth number in each row of Pascal's triangle, and none come to 8128. Does this mean something else? sjorford →•← 09:40, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: An OEIS search for ",8128, AND pascal" gives five results, including A038504 Sum of every 4th entry of row n in Pascal's triangle, starting at "n choose 1" and A038505 Sum of every 4th entry of row n in Pascal's triangle, starting at "n choose 2". It seems to me though that this requires further investigation and clarification before restoration. Anton Mravcek 19:15, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Right, I've worked it out from the OEIS entry - take the second diagonal of PT (the top right-bottom left diagonal that goes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7...), and on each row of the triangle sum every fourth number beginning with that diagonal. This gives 8128 on row 16:
 1 15 105 455 1365 3003 5005 6435 6435 5005 3003 1365 455 105 15 1
...15 + 3003 + 5005 + 105 = 8128.
Whether this is interesting enough to be in this article, I'm not sure - we can't include every time 8128 appears in OEIS! Perhaps it's saying it's the only perfect number with this property, but I'm not certain. sjorford →•← 20:43, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: Should Pan-American Highway (North America) and Pan-American Highway (South America) both be merged to this article? Reasons would include avoiding needless duplication of content, or possible conflicts in content, when different pages have been edited or updated at different times by different editors. This would instead create a single, comprehensive article.This would also have the benefit of a single talk page, instead of having discussions spread across two or three different pages, or having different editors discussing the same content on different pages, (either at the same to different times), leading to competing outcomes for the same content issues.

Anyone wishing to travel those segaments from the mainland need to take a ferry, but we don't have separate articles because of that. I'm sure there's other examples, but surely you get the point. Furthermore, this page is called the "Pan-American Highway"... singular. The articles for the north and south legs require disambiguation. The content on both is essentially duplicated from the main article, (and vice-versa) or it should be. What's the benefit of having three pages for the same content, when it can all be easily and conveniently covered, and better kept up-to-date, by the single article?
