[edit] Moulton plane

Thank you for the new Moulton plane article. It would be nice if you could expand it a bit though, if you can. Enjoy the wiki. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 04:52, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Divisibility

Hello, Kmhkmh. Yes, the article could be revised. My suggestion would be to have sections (or an article) for (1) definition, no remainder; times and divide are inverse functions. (2) Two simple rules for divisibility: by 2, 5, 10 on sight; by sum of digits 3, 6, 9 (and proof). (3) Separate Article --- Vedic math algorithm --- Osculation (simple, complex, multiplex, positive, and negative). (4) Separate Article?, advanced high school algebra --- Modulo arithmetic and proofs of divisibility. and ? (5) Remainder Theorem. (6) Proof of 9-rems method, casting out nines. Larry R.

[edit] A bit of TeXnical nitpicking

In Morrie's law, I changed this:

\cos(20^o) \cdot \cos(40^o) \cdot \cos(80^o)=\frac{1}{8}.

to this:

\cos(20^\circ) \cdot \cos(40^\circ) \cdot \cos(80^\circ)=\frac{1}{8}.

I'm not altogether sure that there's not some other notation considered standard, but I'm pretty sure the first one is not. The difference in appearance is not only the difference between o and \circ, but also the positioning of the parentheses seems better in the second case. Michael Hardy 20:33, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License violation

I found this :

Image:800px-Thales theorem 6.png

By no means you are the author of this picture which is a derivative work. You did not respect the GFDL because you should have at least mentionned the source and the author. I had drawn this picture long time ago :

I fixed the description but please be careful next time, and fix other descriptions if you had performed the same kind of copy with other pictures.

The pictures have always been on Commons. In fact, it would be better to ask an admin to delete the pictures here on :en, they are redundant. Regards, Dake 18:44, 28 September 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Heinsohn Article

Hi, I agree that the Gunnar Heinsohn article needs information on mainstream scholarship´s opinions about his work. Eventually, I plan to overhaul the article completely, referencing the criticisms that I can find, but that might take me some time. I did include a reference to a criticism of Heinsohn´s economic model by Nikolaus K.A. Läufer (see article, Footnote 18), and I found an article by a german historian Walter Rummel [1] which I will reference in the Heinsohn article with another footnote. --Thewolf37 00:27, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

  I look forward to a thorough revision this entry concerning chronology, especially since cites
  to critiques of it have been added--critiques in publications that have published Heinsohn's
  ideas and which he has ignored.  The influence of "editors" 89.122... and 86.106... (probably
  only one person in Romania) needs to be neutralized considering this person does not seem to
  appreciate the absolute veto power of negative evidence as has been provided by Cardona,
  Cochrane, Mitcham, Stiebing, and Rees.  Also, why does the English version not mention the
  biographical details mentioned in the German version, such as Gunnar's father's service in
  the Kriegsmarine?  Phaedrus7 22:23, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Well I`m kinda the wrong person todiscuss that with, you need to talk to Thewolf37, he is the author of the article. I just tagged since in its current form it lacked the criticism of Heihnsohn and the info, that he is considered outside of the scientific mainstream on most issues.--Kmhkmh 05:52, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

I'll try to may more attention next time - too often i hit the save button before filling in the summary line--Kmhkmh 00:02, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
