[edit] Erdős number 2
Hi Roger, I wonder if you could insert information as to Erdős numbers into articles that you add to categories such as Category: Erdős number 2 , via a "Misc", "Trivia", or "other" section. For example, Albert Einstein and William Thurston, according to your edits, have Erdős number 2 , but there is no quick way to verify this or see the chain of collaborations, which is something a great many people would probably regard as of key interest.--Chan-Ho (Talk) 16:02, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
There is a chain of links that ends up in a pretty good source: Category:Erdős number 2 to Erdős number to (in the External Links section [[1]]. Roger Hui 16:09, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
- I've added a link to the category page that links directly to your source's Erdos 2 list. My concern was that people clicking on the category page would be confused, but I think that's taken care of now. --Chan-Ho (Talk) 16:59, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi Roger. Why are you not listed in Category:Erdős number 2 ? The stated source document for the category, http://www.oakland.edu/enp/Erdos2 , does list you. Rohan Jayasekera 06:06, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
- Because I am adverse to editing my own page, and no one else has put in the category reference. Roger Hui 06:10, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

- I thought so. You're listed now! Rohan Jayasekera 03:10, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re-greetings
Hi Roger! Yes, I've been updating Wikipedia for some time, mostly just small fixes such as the one you noticed. I've written one article from scratch, Allison Crowe. I've also created a Rohan Jayasekera page: not about me, but rather a disambiguation page for the two Rohan Jayasekera entries, neither of which is about me!
Congratulations on having an Erdős number of 2! (Normally when I end a sentence with an exclamation point and there is a number immediately preceding, I insert a space to avoid an interpretation of "factorial". Fortunately in this particular case that's not a problem!) --Rohan Jayasekera 10:07, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

- I guess I started this whole mess by creating Category:Erdős number 1 and Category:Erdős number 2. I've cast my vote. Roger Hui 11:41, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
