[edit] Distance error measurements

Hi Ketiltrout. I'd like to ask you not to include error measurements after the star distances when it it already covered by the parallax error. This messes up the formating and I don't believe the parallax error directly translates into a distance error. (For example, 100 ± 10 mas (10 parsecs) is the same as .090&ndas;.110", which is 11.11–9.09 (or 10+1.11 to 10-0.91) not 10 ± 1.) Thank you!!! — RJH 20:59, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Thanks for taking an interest in my contributions. Quoting a measured quantity without quoting its significance is a bit misleading, so I'd like not to do it. Can't we change the formatting? Also, that's not a good way to calcuate the error on the distance. These errors aren't hard limits, they're 1-sigma points. So, since distance is:d={1\over\pi}, the error in d is:\delta d = \delta \left( {1 \over \pi} \right) ={\delta \pi \over \pi^2}, so using your example, π=0.1″, δπ=0.001″, gives: \delta d = { 0.001'' \over \left( 0.1'' \right)^2 } = { 1 \over 0.1'' } = 0.1 \mbox{pc}, so the proper distance to quote is, in fact, 10 ± 1 pc. -- Ketil Trout 22:09, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Salvatore Fiume

Thank you for correcting my article! Just a question: in this sentence In 1962, a hundred pictures of Fiume's toured through several German museums, including those of Cologne and Regensburg., I think that the 's should be omitted, shouldn't it? I would say a hundred Fiume's pictures toured.... Where do you come from? --Daĉjoпочта 19:40, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Central Asian geo-stub categories

Hi. I'm concerned to see you've recently created five new categories for geography stubs of countries in Central Asia. New stub categories are only created when they are viable for use by editor - which by long-standing convention is when there are 60-65 stubs which can use the new category. They are then proposed at WP:WSS/P, as stated at WP:STUB and at the top of almost all stub categories. The goegraphy stubs for individual nations are tallied every two to three weeks to check when new categories reach that level. None of the ones you created yet do, and two of them are severely undersized. All five of these new categories are now listed at WP:WSS/D, and it is likely that a couple of them may be proposed for deletion unless they quickly reach the standard threshold for stub categories. In the case of Cat:Kyrgyzstan geography stubs, this is a re-creation of a category that was only recently deleted after vote at WP:SFD. Please, in future, do not create new stub templates or categories without first going through the normal proposal process. Grutness...wha? 01:20, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] link to 3-d

Hello, when you want to link to the article about something 3D, please do not link to 3-D, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as 3D computer graphics by writing out [[3D computer graphics|3-D]] Regards, -- Jeff3000 03:03, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Source question

Hi. I noticed you created the article Sigma Tauri, and I wondered what source you got all that information from. Just googling isn't turning up a reliable source very quickly, so I thought I'd go straight to the author. Thanks in advance for your help. -GTBacchus(talk) 04:49, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing me to the source. I wasn't able to make heads or tails of that site, but I believe that someone with more knowledge than I could use it to find information, and I added a link to the article. -GTBacchus(talk) 21:20, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Information Literacy

Thanks for the definition you added. But have you any ideas how to straighten out this extremely illogical page? Ity seems to have been started to expound a particular method of library instruction, and then had a number of completely incompatible things added. ?DGG 05:28, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] International banking

In re: Bank of Portugal et al: In looking over my watchlist, I am pleased by your interest in corporate nomenclature and English translations of bank names, and I hope you are aware that in some cases there are name overlaps between the English versions of a company name and an extant company that could lead to a re-move; just in case it comes up in the future. Although the English names are nice, there do exist cases in which the original name is selected over a translation to avoid confusion. (I am not checking any of these moves, and I am definitely not aware of any such name confusion in these articles at this time.) Cheers. --McTrixie/Mr Accountable 13:19, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Central banks

Hi Ketiltrout, I've noticed that you've went through all the "Central banks" redlinks in Wikipedia:Requested_articles/Business_and_Economics and started stubs. Although your efforts are commendable, "The Central Bank of X is the central bank of X" blurb is not useful at all. Do you plan on expanding these articles? If not, I either have to request speedy deletion so the request links stay red, or tag them with {{expand}} so that somebody will start working on them. -- Emana 20:54, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of central banks

As an editor who has been so keen to improve the list, guess you'd perhaps be interested to take a look at user:Huaiwei's recent edits. :-) He insisted the Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the Monetary Authority of Macao to be listed under the People's Bank of China, and insisted to spell Macao in Monetary Authority of Macao different from its official name as according to the official website. — Instantnood 18:00, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Roundels

Ketiltrout, mah man!

Thank you for your assistance in plugging in national roundels! I have been trying to follow a policy of using military insignia for military crashes, and national flagicons for civilian crashes - though c.n. 3118, a military Herc flown by an Air America crew (10 April 1970) was a toss-up... I opted for the flag as it was a civilian flight crew.

I hadn't been able to figure out how the describe the roundel svg. image for smaller air arms. I surely do appreciate your help!

Alas, "vacationing" is indeed a word on the west side of the Atlantic, where they love to turn nouns into verbs ("transitioning" being another example). I assume that you, like me, come from the east side. Rodparkes 02:48, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Last Orders

Hello Ketiltrout. I just wanted to drop a note to thank you for being thorough in fixing the links for the cast of this fine film. Not every editor realizes that new pages will effect other items in wikipedia. When I was watching this in the theatre a few years ago it dawned on me that Helen Mirren and Bob Hoskins had acted together in a film early in both of their careers. It is The Long Good Friday. Now you probably were already aware of this but, as several friends that have watched these two together have thanked me for recommending them, I thought I would pass the info along just in case. Thanks again and happy editing. MarnetteD | Talk 21:39, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Uzel (disambiguation)

A tag has been placed on Uzel (disambiguation), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Staffordboy (talkcontribs) 21:37, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DuMont disambiguation merge

Hi Ketiltrout!

Thanks for your edits to Wikipedia. Please make sure that when you merge articles or disambiguation pages together that you are actually merging content from both pages. Here you "merged" Dumont and DuMont by blanking and redirecting DuMont to Dumont without adding the content at DuMont to Dumont. You changed a single word at Dumont without incorporating anything from DuMont into Dumont. That's not a merger of content. The content that was in DuMont but not included in Dumont was effectively edited out of the encyclopedia when you did that. I have since added the remaining content from DuMont into Dumont. Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 22:39, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Ack. Thanks for catching (and correcting) that omission.—Ketil Trout (<><!) 20:30, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
No problem. I just wanted to make sure you weren't "merging" articles like that all the time. Happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 21:16, 12 June 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Why the succession box?

Why the sucession box on John Frederic Daniell? Just how are these people predecessors or successors? Gauss was a mathemetician, not a chemist! Please explain. --Wtshymanski 16:51, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

They are all natural scientists. But in this case, they're successors in that they were awarded the Copley Medal in successive years. So, they're were leaders in the natural sciences of their age, at least in the opinion of the Royal Society.—Ketil Trout (<><!) 19:42, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I think it's an odd way to organize scientists. Are the Nobel winners organized the same way? King Dimwitt Flathead IX is an obvious natural sucessor to King Dimwitt Flathead VIII; but I'm not sure what I'm learning from a list of scientific beauty-contest winners; the succession says more about the judges than about the scientists. Am I going to get a coherent picture of the evolution of scientific thought by following the chain of successors? And I notice the chain *branches* - which branch is more relevant? Faraday or Gauss? --Wtshymanski 20:48, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Space music

Hi. It seems like you have an interest in ambient music. I wonder if you wouldn't mind taking a look at Space music when you get a chance. There is currently an ongoing issue there with one editor trying to suggest that space music is not a genre of ambient - and the discussion would certainly benefit from outside opinions by knowledgeable parties. --Gene_poole 07:14, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Nice work on the map/template for Yonge-University-Spadina (TTC) subway line. I was also working on this but I felt that the linear layout did not properly show the U shape of the line. I recently found a template that that lets you put text on both sides and therefore place the east and west stations geographically across from each other. If you think this is a better depiction of the line you may take the code and update it with the additional information you have. What I noticed is that your attempt to show the crossovers and interchanges for St. George and Bay stations which are NOT used in the operation of the trains confuses the route of the subway train. Perhaps we could work on an additional diagram to show these tracks and Lower Bay Station, to be placed beside the sections of Bay (TTC), Museum (TTC) and St. George (TTC) stations that refer to this. Secondarywaltz 20:15, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Nice work. I like that map. I've made a few minor edits to it; most importantly, it was missing Glencairn. I've updated the template, and asked people to share their views on which is better on the talk page. Regarding the interchanges at St. George and Bay, I think it's important to show them, to indicate the system's capabilities. It would be nice to have them in the light blue of not in use track to distinguish them, but I don't think the necessary tiles exist. I've brought this point up on the talk page, as well. It would also be nice to have Union Station at the bottom of the loop, but, again, non-existent vertical interchange symbols appear to prevent that. Please feel free to edit it further, if it can be improved. Cheers,—Ketil Trout (<><!) 22:02, 18 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Notability of Serif Systems

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Serif Systems, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Serif Systems seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Serif Systems, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD.

[edit] Inaccessible Island and dab pages

In instances where there is one major usage of a name and several smaller ones it is conventional to leave the major one in the namespace and have a link in the top to the others (or to Inaccessible Island (disambiguation). Surely 99.9% of people interested in Inaccessible Island are going to be looking for the main one, so wouldn't it have made more sense to have left it there rather than making it a redirect? Sabine's Sunbird talk 03:17, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Apologies for the delay in response. I really don't know what the usage statistics are for those pages; but, if they're as skewed as you say, perhaps my changes should be undone. Cheers—Ketil Trout (<><!) 01:32, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
My own apologises for the tardiness of my reply. I never got round to requesting a move, but have moved it now. The majority of the klinks to Inaccessible Island were after the Tristan one. Sabine's Sunbird talk 22:27, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Quick note

First, excellent work on CSD taggings. However, I just wanted to drop a note to say that you should put {{db-redirtypo}} above the REDIRECT line; otherwise, the page still redirects and admins have to click back to delete the page. Thanks. hbdragon88 (talk) 00:38, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, good point; I'll remember that.—Ketil Trout (<><!) 00:40, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Page redirects?

Just curious... it seems that you are moving pages like Harold Elliott (football coach) to Harold Elliott, and have done that to many, many pages. Since these pages are a part of Wikipedia:WikiProject College football, we've put together many pages on small college football coaches specifically with the tag "(football coach)" to prevent confusion of other people with the same name. Anyway, if this is you or one of your bots doing this, for now please stop and if you want to continue please go to the discussion on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football about the topic.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:46, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

WikiProject Canada Roads
Hi, you are graciously extended an invitation to join the Canada Roads WikiProject! The Canada Roads WikiProject is an evolving and expanding WikiProject. We are a group of editors who are dedicated to creating, revising, and expanding articles, lists, categories, and Wikiprojects, to do with anything related to Canadian Roads.
As you have shown an interest in List of highways numbered 970 we thought you might like to take an interest in this growing WikiProject.
We look forward to welcoming you to the project! SriMesh | talk 04:44, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
