replies: text: That is a trivial reduction. Let preference = cost (i.e. rated 1-5, 1 is highest) or cost = 1/preference owise Joseph.Re 20:15, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not exactly. First of all, there is a problem with the question itself (to ask a proper question is just as important as to give a proper answer). Now, the Assignment problems consists of two parts: weight function and  cost function, both of them make the assignment problem the assigment problem. In your answer you assumed that the asking person wants the sum to be the cost function. But if it were so, I believe he would not have asked the question at all, since it is trivial to understand that it does not matter what to sum: weights or places, like when skating is judged. What was asked is the problem of ranking, which is indeed undercovered in wikipedia. There are many situations when  summation is bad idea for ranking, and more complex rank functions are used  (the simplest example (again, from sports competitions) is when the highest and the lowest individual ranks are discarded and the rest is summed), and the best total rank is no longer modelled by the assignment problem. `'Míkka 20:30, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Atari 5200

message: I think it's really time to fix this longstanding error that's only becoming increasingly entrenched as it's allowed to linger. I've posted on the ColecoVision talk page as well because there was considerable if not universal consensus that the Third Generation (often described as "Third Wave" back then) started with it. And the 5200 launched two or three months later. Moving the 5200, ColecoVision, and Vectrex to Third Generation solves every problem and is consistent with the, frankly, robust primary sources from the era.

Wikipedia currently isn't even consistent with itself. The ColecoVision and SG-1000 are for all intents and purposes the same machine released 11 months of each other yet the SG-1000 is in the Third Generation. The 5200's placement is logically inconsistent since it's effectively Atari's Wii U. Everyone is in agreement that the Wii U was "next gen" to the Wii and the Switch was a mid-cycle replacement. Nobody disputes this. We don't retroactively group the Wii U with it's predecessor because it flopped. So why are we doing it to the 5200? The discrepancy of all this is irreconcilable. Bumping the ColecoVision, 5200, and Vectrex to Third Generation cures every problem. 47.16.172.103 (talk) 15:49, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

message: I don't know the Terry Carr novel --- does the title refer to either a circus or a glacial valley? If so, wouldn't it be redundant? -- hike395 01:38, 5 Aug 2003 (UTC)

message: The move suggested by Stan in 2004 is so long overdue.  Essentially all references to "cirque" on WP refer to the landform, so this page should be moved to "Cirque (disambiguation)" and "Cirque (landform)" renamed to "Cirque".  This fits the guidelines in Wikipedia:Disambiguation.
In the course of writing dozens of geological (volcano, glacier, etc.) articles recently, I've gotten so sick of having to paste in cirque every time I need to refer to cirques.  It's time this huge annoyance was ended.  I'm going to go ahead and do this, since 3 yrs have passed with no dissenting opinions.

Hobby uses MetaPost in the User's Guide.  He also says it is okay to use all caps METAPOST (in the logo tex font).  I think the original wiki link I started editing was from the Metafont page, and it was first-caps only like the Metafont entry, so that kind of stuck in my writing of this page.

thread_title:  Remove Template:Educational research 

message: Participation in technical and vocational education and training (TVET) for young adults remains low in many parts of the world. Some progress can be observed in vocational educational enrolment between 2000 and 2020 in Central Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, as well as in East Asia and the Pacific with up to 15% of 15-24 years enrolled in TVET programs. In the lowest income countries, however, and in regions such as sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, enrolment in TVET has remained low and stagnant at only around 1% of the age group. It is important to recall that vocational skills development is not restricted to formal education and training and that youth in the significant informal economies of many countries may have access to traditional apprenticeships or informal skills development. Yet, data from the International Labour Organization indicate that more than one in five youth (16-24) worldwide are not in education, training, or employment, two thirds of whom are young women.

Also you might say that this is just trivial and of no importance to the page, I would have to disagree with that statement because it is not.
