[edit] Double redirects

Hello, and also a warm welcome from me. Thank you for your efforts in improving our maths articles. The reason that I'm writing to you is to explain that double redirects do not work. For instance, you created a redirect from overestimate to estimate, and estimate is a redirect to estimation. In that situation, a link to overestimate will not follow both redirects and point to estimation. Instead, you should make overestimate a redirect to estimation. I fixed that now for you, but this is one of the (many many) things to keep into mind when working here.

I hope to see more contributions by you! Best wishes, Jitse Niesen (talk) 06:30, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

My appologies for the mistake, thank you for explaining this. I'll keep it in mind. 48v 06:41, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Propose deletion of Order (algebra)

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Order (algebra), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Order (algebra). If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. grubber 20:29, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know, I replied in the talk page, I think your point is reasonable. 48v 20:40, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Torrent project

File right here.Nominaladversary 13:51, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Metrics on our project performance are pretty hard to come up with, but I have taken a run at it. If your BitTorrent client keep tracks of file-specific accumulated upload, please tell it here. -- Paleorthid 16:18, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your offer of a server to munge the picture dumps. I am following up on Sj's offer first, as those machines have the dumps, I may get back to you. BTW - you realise how big these things are, right? Probably 100Gig for pictures, another 100G space needed to unpack, fiddle.. Wizzy…☎ 08:33, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
If I shuffle around a few disks, I will probably be able to get that much space. I didn't realize it was quite that much, but I think it's still possible. anyway, I'll investigate more if the other dosen't pan out. 48v 00:15, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Strange edit

Was there a reason for removing the (Admittedly strangely titled) "mac on windows" section in " this edit? I was about to answer that question. 68.39.174.238 01:44, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

I appologize, I must have made some mistake. I may have mis-clicked or somesuch. I meant to reply to the previous question, but that reply didn't take either. Thanks for catching this. 48v 21:21, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Torrent project

Not sure if you know, but, the 0.5 WPCD released a couple of days ago, and we made a torrent for it. It seems to be running, for both files (.iso and a compress .bz2). Come check it out! Here!. Nominaladversary 03:33, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Need help with Disambiguation

{{helpme}} I hope I am using this tag correctly. I think that the article on Front of house deserves a disambiguation page, as did somebody else. However, I don't know how to do this. Perhaps someone could either explain here, or just seperate the articles? Thanks, 48v 16:17, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Their are many articles under similar titles, they can just be linked to each other via the info on the top of the above article. If they were three articles under very similar names then a Disambiguation would be appropriate but I think you're OK here. That should help! TellyaddictTalk 16:25, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mathematics CotW

Hey 48v, I am writing you to let you know that the Mathematics Collaboration of the week(soon to "of the month") is getting an overhaul of sorts and I would encourage you to participate in whatever way you can, i.e. nominate an article, contribute to an article, or sign up to be part of the project. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks--Cronholm144 17:05, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
