[edit] De Moivre's formula
wouldn't this more aptly be called De Moivre's Theorem?-- Revived 04:25, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- The standard name is De Moivre's formula and there is nothing we can do about it. You are right, it is a theorem. Oleg Alexandrov 04:29, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Collaboration of the Week
League of Nations is the new Collaboration of the Week. Please join in helping make it a feature article.
[edit] Hello!
Just saying hello, from one Waterloo student to another. There are a few UW students around here, in case you're interested. Looking at the page history of the University of Waterloo article is a good place to find them! Good work on the Keith Geddes article. If you work with the Maple group you might want to seriously expand the article on Maple, as I think it's lacking a bit now. Cheers. CryptoDerk 03:02, Dec 28, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Baron Black of Crossharbour
Hi! Agree with you about the CB article. Go for it. Caveat: this is ongoing news, so it's difficult to write a well-developed article. Perhaps limiting yourself to a chronology of events related to Hollinger. This would be factual and NPOV.
The article could be organized like this, for instance. (short intro) 1. Early life 2. Press career 3. Published works 4. Marriage to Barbara Amiel and social life 5. Hollinger chronology
You might want to examine different aspects of the man; he's fascinating. Got expelled from UCC (or LCC?) for selling essays to classmates. Black (an anglo!) wrote one of the best political bios of any French Canadian politician, "Duplessis". He (a right wing capitalist!) wrote perhaps the best single volume bio of FDR, in unabashed praise of the New Deal. He's also active on the social scenes attending lots of parties with the Rich and Famous. Infamously attended a costume party dressed as Cardinal Richelieu. People tend to avoid sitting next to him at dinner because he bores listeners with endless statistics on, say, the exact number of ships wrecked ashore when the Spanish Armada foundered in the 16th century. And then he names and descibes each ship. I'd consider doing it myself, but no time for the research. Good luck. Vincent 04:34, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] FEDS
Sorry, I am just a PhD student at UW, I did my undergrad in the states, so I know nothing about anything that goes on at UW. Good luck with the article, looks good thus far. CryptoDerk 03:10, Apr 14, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Referring to students' unions
I would probably use they vs it, it sounds really... impersonal. Whichever you decide to use, make sure it's consistant in the article. --Spinboy 04:20, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] User:211.160.80.35
He got his warning, so I'm watching to see if he vandalizes again. If he does, I'll block him. – ClockworkSoul 03:10, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Well, he didn't heed the warnings, so he's blocked for 24 hours. – ClockworkSoul 03:18, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] RuneScape cheats
Your help with fixing the vandalism is very appreciated. Currently JAGex is trying to delete the article with an AFD recommendation. Please take a minute and comment on the talk page so that the article can be improved instead of removed.Jonathan888 (talk) 15:18, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Block on 129.97.58.55
I unblocked 129.97.58.55, so you should be safe to log in again. Owen× ☎ 19:01, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry about that, 48 hours was definitely excessive. // Pathoschild 00:06, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] User:68.171.249.212
He stopped vandalizing after you warned him. If he continues, issue a final ({{test3}} or {{test4}}) warning and alert me. Thanks! Owen× ☎ 00:20, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Charlie Wolf
I reverted the article back to the original text by Harry Alexander Glockler, following vandalism by User:81.96.2.3. Please may I restore this original text. 195.92.67.68 17:56, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- I've done it anyway. 195.92.67.71 23:40, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hi & feedback requested
You welcomed me to Wikipedia last year with a note on my talk page. I was wondering if you have any specific feedback or suggestions for me, as we haven't corresponded since. Peter C Talk! 13:31, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WP:CVU status
The Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to {{inactive}} and/or {{historical}} status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you!
