Discussion[edit]

Hello. I am not sure whether widespread mathematical delusions a subject fit for inclusion in an encyclopaedia, and I cannot make much sense of the article. Hence, I asked for some more opinions on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mathematics#Widespread mathematical delusions. You may want to comment on my questions there. Yours, Jitse Niesen (talk) 05:15, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Probably you are right partly. Especially it concerns the second section of paper. However the first section without doubts keeps within a well-known encyclopaedic category “Paradoxes in mathematics”. Russian mirror of this paper contains, for example, popular delusions which often meet at discussion on “Fermat's last theorem”, “Parallel lines in Lobachevsky's geometry”, “Events with zero probability”. Can be it is necessary to open a new category “Paradoxes in mathematics” into which this paper could enter? Your opinion? :: The delusion consists in popular attempts to justify or to prove or to deduce definition: P(AB)=P(A)P(B) from other assumptions. Mathematical definitions do not demand proofs, especially in a preamble to encyclopaedic paper. The criticism is directed only on style of a preamble. All other sections of paper “Statistical” are quite correct. - Helgus 12:32, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AfD Nomination Delusions in probability theory and statistics[edit]

I've nominated the article Delusions in probability theory and statistics for deletion under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Delusions in probability theory and statistics satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I have explained why in the nomination space (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Delusions in probability theory and statistics. Don't forget to add four tildes (˜˜˜˜) at the end of each of your comments to sign them. You are free to edit the content of Delusions in probability theory and statistics during the discussion, but please do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top). Doing so will not end the discussion. --Lambiam ^Talk 22:35, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your time:) - Helgus 23:50, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rapid edits[edit]

I've noticed that you make a large number of very minor edits, such as moving references from word to word, and in quick succession. Since you seem to regret your earlier changes so soon, you should use the "preview" feature so that you can be sure, before committing, that you really want the change. It cuts down on noise, and also on work for you. Ryan Reich 01:48, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are absolutely right. I work in this editor only a few days. I have not got used yet to it. Thanks, I shall be corrected:) - Helgus 02:00, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You also mark all your edits "minor"; this may be a Preference setting for you (in which case you should take care to change either the preference or the check box when you make an edit), but by convention an edit should be extremely minor to be marked as such. Anything where you add an actual idea is not minor; usually this is reserved for grammatical changes, small stylistic changes, and the like. Ryan Reich 02:04, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This mistake is consequence of the first. I shall consider also it. Thanks once again:) - Helgus 02:13, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Eventology - articles for AfD[edit]

In case you haven't noticed, your Eventology articles have been nominated for deletion. As one of the people wading through the articles, I have a major question that needs an answer before I decide as to inclusion/exclusion (and I must note that I am mathematics faculty at an American college): have there been any mathematical (or other refereed) journals outside Russia that have accepted and published your theses regarding eventology (which, I must point out, is a musical term in English that goes back into the 1930s)? How widespread is the acceptance of your propositions? Some editors at Wikipedia are a bit nervous about having the article written by you, the originator of the movement/term, in addition to 10 out of 11 references provided in that article. B.Wind 15:29, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am a neophyte in Wiki, sorry:) Having got acquainted with discussion and is closer with Wiki-rules, I have come to conclusion, that Eventology is OR. Eventology is known by Lotfi A. Zadeh, Dietrich Stoyan (Thechnical University, Freiberg, Germany) , Vladimir Lefebvre (University of California, Berckley) and a number of less known mathematicians outside Russia. Some special sessions on international conferences (Beiing’2005, Barcelona’2005, Paris’2006). Perhaps, that’s all. Though 100 years later eventology will be a classical section of the theory. I’m quite assured:) I did not know about the musical term of 1930th years. It is very curious, thanx:) However, it seems to me, the term “eventology” more approaches to section of probability theory, than to music. Will agree!:)

Among marked AfD eventological papers there is such which it is possible to state without references to eventology: Event-terrace, Distribution of a set of events, Set of events, Random set of events. Thank you for your time:) - Helgus 04:19, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

p.s. Now I translate my book «Introduction in Eventology» from Russian into English. My English has no that graceful level which for this purpose is required:) The assistant with brilliant English in the field of probability theory is very necessary to me. - Helgus 04:19, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 22[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Beta distribution, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Probability density. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Helgus. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Helgus~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

File permission problem with File:Eventology (book).jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Eventology (book).jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 11:40, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
