Talk:Frey effect

message: I'm currently working on cleaning up this article, more or less from the top down. Please excuse some inconsistencies in the meantime, such as duplicated references. (This notice will be removed in a few days when I consider my cleanups complete.) Colin M. 14:42, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  In the process of article cleanup 

message: Antaeus suggests that this article be merged into Microwave auditory effect. Is there consensus for a merge? --AI 02:43, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur. Other pages with similar names, such as "microwave hearing effect", redirect here. I don't think there's any reason to keep Frey effect and Microwave auditory effect separate, as it implies that there is some sort of distinction between the two that I don't believe actually exists. Colin M. 04:12, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, but where should they all redirect to?  Frey effect or Microwave auditory effect?  Personally I prefer Frey. --AI 05:05, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  Sorry, I didn't see this comment until after I'd already done the merge. I merged to "microwave auditory effect" because that article is older and there is evidence that the Frey effect article was created with the intention of a "fork". I have no strong preference for it to be in one place or another -- and Google hits for the two names are almost equally common -- but decided it was best to merge the two pages now as opposed to later, especially since I intended to spend some time cleaning up the Frey effect article and it seemed to make more sense to merge first so that the final result is hopefully more coherent overall. If there is substantial consensus that the page should be moved to Frey effect later, I am fine with that. Colin M. 09:52, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge 

message: I've taken the liberty of merging the Frey effect page into the microwave auditory effect page. The microwave auditory effect page has now inherited the cleanup tag, as I believe most of the sections of the Frey effect page needed heavy copy editing and fact checking. I still plan on going through and finishing up this dirty work at some point soon. In the meantime, it's still the case that many references are duplicated. In fact, this has probably gotten worse because of the merge. Sometime in the next week or so I intend to be done with the cleanup and will remove the tag at that point unless someone objects.

Talk:WOTV

message: "Prior to the LMA, one of their news anchors was murdered by her husband."  First of all, I highly doubt the local marketing agreement had anything to do with the anchor's death.  A date, even as vague as a year or perhaps even a decade, would be helpful here instead of attempting to tie what are probably two completely unrelated events.  Secondly, dare I ask, which news anchor?  Finally, this is a serious charge that without substantiation could be a serious problem for Wikipedia.  If, for example, the community suspects that the husband did it, but charges were never brought or if he were found not guilty, the husband could potentially sue for libel were this article ever to identify him.  This fact should be verified, or else the claim should be scrapped. -- SwissCelt 23:05, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Talk:List of Rolls-Royce engines

message: I am not sure if the current format is the best way to organise things. Do people think it would be better to split the page into past/present sections? Or perhaps just a straight list of all the engines is better? Or does it need information like the dates of production? Bobbis 23:08, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for putting this up. The present format is imperfect, but most of the alternatives would also be problematic. Perhaps ordering them by type instead of by usage would make it a little simpler, and eliminate duplication (eg. piston/jet/turbofan/turboshaft/turbine etc. - this way (eg) the Spey would not need to be listed multiple times; the Merlin was also used in a tank IIRC).

Talk:Congruent transformation

message: Hi. You recently created the article congruent transformation. I'm afraid that I don't quite understand it. First of all, the definition (transformations of the form  x \mapsto D^\top x D) does not include translations, but the last sentence about triangle implies that translations are included. Secondly, if one takes
: D = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{bmatrix} 
then the transformation is not an isometry. Could you please clarify? Arigatō, Jitse Niesen (talk) 23:09, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Category talk:Dynamical systems

message: What is this category supposed to contain? From the introduction, it seems to be more a category for dynamics (mechanics) than for dynamical systems. Things like having mechanics as a parent category, and containing fictitious force and centrifugal force, also hint at it. But perhaps my view is too narrow. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 23:19, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Content 

message: I think the purpose of this entry will be to define the term and provide a connecting point to many other related topics. I think Dynamical Systems is primarily a topic of pure math that has applicability in many different disciplines. This particular writeup has many false sub-topics; topics that are related but with no explanation as to how they relate to the main topic. I'm a newbie so I'm not going to immediately try to rewrite it until I have a better feel for how to best contribute to the project.

:Categories usually do not "explain" what they contain, although the article dynamical system should be a good guide. Funny that you called it "pure math", some people think its applied math and others, physics, even.  What do you consider to be a "false subtopic"? linas 02:24, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  What Should This Category Contain? 

message: There are two articles that claim to cover dynamical systems: Page A (Dynamical system) and Page B (Dynamical systems).  Page A attempts to portray the field of dynamical systems as it is practiced by mathematicians publishing in journals such as the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society and indexed in Mathematical Reviews.  Page B is more limited and offers a distorted view of the questions being considered by those that have their work reviewed in Mathematical Reviews. Maybe the Wikipedians with interest in creating a dynamical systems theory page, such as Page B, could focus the definition given early in that page so no confusion arises with the topic of Page A. 
In full disclosure, I did a complete re-write of page A in June of 2005.   XaosBits (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 14:27, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Category talk:Rabbis

message: Should this category be broken down into :Category:Rabbis by nationality? As for Conservative/Reform/Orthodox/Reconstructionist, should that be under :Category:Rabbis by sect or :Category:Rabbis by sect or something? – Quadell (talk) (sleuth) 23:20, August 11, 2005 (UTC)
*It's self-understood that :Category:Orthodox rabbis & :Category:Conservative rabbis & :Category:Reform rabbis are "Rabbis by sect". And besides no-one uses the nomeclature of "rabbis by sect", it's unheard of. Also, at this time, there are not enough rabbis listed to list them by nationality. IZAK 10:50, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I think we should have a discussion about a rational division of rabbis.  For example, I notice that the Vilna of Gaon is categorized as an Orthodox rabbi.  Setting aside the controversy over which movement is a more faithful heir to the rabbinic legacy, isn't it reasonable to say that back in his time, the O/C/R/R distinction didn't exist?  On the other hand, there are meaningful historical distinctions, i.e., between Chasidim and Mitnagdim, etc.  This categorization can be valuable for anyone who wants to understand rabbinic history and literature, so I think we should try to work on it.  What do others think?  --Leifern 13:20, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
