[edit] coin flipping

Hello. Your large cut from coin flipping, under a minor edit, is not appreciated. I don't think you should be so cavalier, even if you feel the material is below standard. Charles Matthews 10:43, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Noted. -Grick 02:39, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] take a little care

Please be careful when editing, in predatory pricing, you created a 'see also' section that didnt have any links and just said predatory pricing, and adding clean tag to tying was innapropriate, consider, who do you want to edit it? an economics expert in the economics section, or an average joe who has no idea what tying is in the cleanup section? thanks Bluemoose 12:03, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Whoops, that was supposed to be a link to tying. -Grick 02:31, Mar 16, 2005 (UTC)

I just mean that the page was not 'messy' and didnt need to be cleaned up in that sense, it did however need more work, therefore it is an economics stub, not a 'cleanup', and when it is a technical term it is fairly useless putting it in the cleanup category as few people would know how to add to it. thanks Bluemoose 11:07, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Gotcha. thanks. -Grick 18:42, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding one of you edits...

I am confident you had something else in mind... but are you aware I am pregnant ? [1]

[edit] Vandalism in progress

First of all, let me apologize for nominating you on this page, especially since you're right, in that you only made your change to U.S. Constition once. That said, I would have appreciated hearing your rationale at Talk:United States Constitution. Why not simply correct me there in October, as I invited you to, rather than remove my question from your talk page and not go to the talk page? It was that, rather than your edit, that set off warning bells. Very sorry about the mix-up; it could have been avoided with a little more communication. Thanks very much, Meelar (talk) 06:10, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)

No problem. Again, the mistake was mine. Best wishes, and I hope you keep contibuting. Yours, Meelar (talk) 06:23, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Embrace and extend

Please detail the problems you have with this page on Talk, or the disputed tag will be removed. AlistairMcMillan 15:02, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Multiple templates

I've often seen them used on pages, and I'm not sure what the alternative is when there's more than one problem, not covered by a single template. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:48, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Recording articles

Hi Grick! You mentioned on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Spoken Wikipedia that you would like to participate in the Spoken Wikipedia project. Well, please feel free! Find any article of your choice (for example, browse the Featured articles) and record it. Then upload the finished file (preferably encoded as Ogg) and add the text "{{Spoken Wikipedia|Sound file.ogg|2005-06-16}}" to the article. Of course, you need to replace "Sound file.ogg" with the name of the sound file, and the date with the date of the revision of the article you recorded. Thanks for your participation! — Timwi 18:11, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Interested in an L.A.-area Wiki meetup?

It appears as though L.A. has never had a Wiki meetup. Would you be interested in attending such an event? If so, checkout User:Eric Shalov/Wikimeetup

- Eric 16:24, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Nah, don't think that would work; thanks for the invite though. -Grick(talk to me!) 02:13, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Arrow's Theorem

This is a stronger assumption, because assuming both monotonicity and independence of irrelevant alternatives implies Pareto efficiency.

That makes it (Pareto efficiency) a weaker assumption, right? And that makes the theorem stronger, since it says the same conclusion holds under broader conditions, yes? Josh Cherry 12:58, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

If I've misunderstood the article, please feel free to edit/revert it. -Grick(talk to me!) 14:45, September 2, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Jimbo Wales to Attend San Diego Meetup on October 18 2005

Hello, Jimbo Wales will be in San Diego to attend OOPSLA and has agreed to come by and visit with the San Diego wikipedians. If you are interested, you will find more info on my talk page. Johntex\talk 00:54, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Perfect information

Hi Grick. Thanks for your interest in Perfect information. You added poker as an example of a game with imperfect information. We actually had a rather long discussion of this at Talk:Complete information and concluded that poker is not the best example. Basically this is because poker does not fit neatly into many accepted definitions of perfect/imperfect and complete/incomplete information. I'm going to change the article back for the time being, but if you want to reopen the discussion about the matter, feel free. Also, if you're generally interested in game theory we have a Wikipedia:WikiProject Game theory and would love to have you join us! Thanks again. --best, kevin [kzollman][talk] 21:47, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] war (card game)

Sorry for the confusion. I was indeed editing an old version of the page but I thought my second edit had fixed that. I'm not sure how I managed to overlook your changes. —Blotwell 01:24, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
