message: I disagree with Redrose64's decision to remove the wikilink from England (see edit summary, which says people can click the Oldham link to find out about England), because:
* in a quick check of a few other articles referring to places, the country was linked in every case. So unless the ones I found were unrepresentative, it's inconsistent to omit the link here.
* someone who decides they want to read about England will want to go directly to the England article.
I've restored the link.

message: The train service to Blackpool was not just a service during the 2000s. I travelled on it many times during the early 1980s.

Talk:Land of Make Believe (amusement park)

message: In your site you mentioned about the moo-moo bird with reference to a particular picture in The Land of Make Believe painting by Jaro Hess and not knowing where that picture comes from. I believe that scene comes from the book The Wonderful Adventures of Nils. I have not read the book but there is a similar picture in the book. Since Hess drew in fairtale character images, his version of the scene or picture would be a more animated one. In Texas, a moo bird would be a cow bird. I searched for the Japanese and the Hawaiian version of a moo-moo bird and came up empty handed. However, after viewing some of the information on the book The Wonderful Adventures of Nils and seeing a picture of a goose with Nils on it, I believe that is the book where that picture in The Land of Make Believe comes from. The information about the Nils book is in your website.

I hope that Frank's eminence in a number of fields (art, architecture, academe and cartoons) speaks for itself in terms of his note-worthiness.  A quick google search will establish this.
There was a Times obituary which, when I have it to hand, will be included as one of his references.  In time, many others will be added.  I would be grateful for any assistance.

Talk:Eigenfunction

message: This explanation seems way to complicated. If someone understood this, they wouldn't need Wikipedia to explain it to them.
: To understand this you have to know that functions can behave analogously to vectors, and function spaces to vector spaces, and that a linear operator converts vectors to other vectors (or functions). If you multiply a vector by a scalar, you merely change a vector's magnitude, and not it's direction. So an eigenfunction is one whose direction is unchanged by the linear operator it is an eigenfunction of. ᛭ LokiClock (talk) 08:36, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

"In some special cases, such as the coefficients of the Fourier series of a sinusoidal function, this column vector has finite dimension."
This feels invalid to me. To my mind, the column vector is still infinite, it simply has a finite number of non-zero values. Just because the rest of the values are "unused" doesn't mean they don't exist.

message: ;1. Boldface
I changed the format thruout by "bolding" the whole lines that identify winners, rather than the leading numerals alone, ie the dates/years. This makes the winners more prominent relative to the runners-up.
2012 now differs from 2013 and 2014 in its use of 'Title, Author' format for all listings -- a comma (,) rather than the word 'by' without a comma to separate the book titles and author names.
2014 now differs from 2012 and 2013 in presenting the category names and category winners on one line --eg, Teen – Geek Girl by Holly Smale-- above the shortlists, rather than category names alone above lists with the winners listed bold and first, the others plain and alphabetical by surname.
;2. Redlink authors
I replaced false bluelinks with plain author names rather than disambiguate them from the people who do have pages here. Thus I confirmed or corrected all bluelinks. At a glance I now find three redlinks were disambiguated by previous editors (Frost, Stevens, Ward).

Talk:George Wallace 1968 presidential campaign

message: When I read "won almost 10 million votes" I immediately thought of the obvious "next question" - that is, "Out of how many total votes?" So I added that total (from the Wikipedia entry on the 1968 election). As I did, I thought of the other obvious "next questions" that arose as I read - what percentage of the total were his almost 10 million votes? So I added that from Wikipedia. And I also wondered what the actual number was (how "almost" to 10 million was it?) I figured it'd be paradoxically easier to read and process the actual 7-digit number than "almost 10 million," so I replaced the latter.
