First Sandbox

Could someone please make me a sandbox? I did read, but the file path looks like UNIX. I'm too young to know UNIX, LOL, so I might make a dirty cat box if I try! {{help me}} Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 11:01, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Where are the tools to set this equation?

How do I write these 2 equations in a wiki compatible form; does wiki formating survive our PDF rendering to a printer? Math guy!

KEY: division /, multiplication *, exponential ^, nested grouping (), matrix [] , equals =

Is this what you want? WP:MATH? --Tyw7 (talk) 11:37, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

(ec)

You should indeed use math - e.g. <math>E = mc^2 \,\!</math> produces;

$E=mc^{2}\,\!$

If you download as a PDF through the link to do so, on the left (example) - which uses Special:Book - then that should render OK, depending on your printer, etc. Alternatively, you can use the link to the 'printable version' and print from there (example). Chzz ► 11:48, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

<math> dict=Partition[Flatten[Tuples[Reverse[IdentityMatrix[alpha]],word]],(alpha*word)] </math>

oops, this doesn't work because it is computer code, not straight math:

$dict=Partition[Flatten[Tuples[Reverse[IdentityMatrix[alpha]],word]],(alpha*word)]$

I wonder if there is freeware somewhere that understands this code ??? But commands like "Flatten" probably don't set like a math text book. So, I probably stay in code, where such terms are defined. That will make a giant mess of definitions, unreadable by anyone who does not program. Hummm, nice project for a college math student, but not me.

Comparison of TeX editors ? (Also, BTW, I replied on User talk:Chzz#As ur daughter_... Chzz ► 12:24, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your code ((Transpose[dict])*((alpha)^-(word -1)))-((word - 1)/(alpha^word)/word) seems to mean (replacing dict with d and word with w for brevity)

d^{\mathrm {T} }\alpha ^{-(w-1)}-{\frac {\frac {w-1}{\alpha ^{w}}}{w}}

. I don't know what most of the functions in your first example are supposed to do, so I can't really interpret that one. But yes, if you want to typeset mathematics properly (on Wikipedia or elsewhere), you should learn some variety of TeX. Algebraist 12:31, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mathematical Orneriness

Mathematicians have been known to publish the solution to significant problems in very strange places. If I find a fellow wikipedia editor who is obviously using his / her real name, and I can confirm the equation to be true, may I grab the equation from a discussion page on the subject and drop it into that person's biography? I might post this question several times under {{Help me}} unless someone helps by giving a very definitive wiki rule for editing. Seems like a grey area to me.

Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 13:14, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If by biography you mean the person's Wikipedia article, no. It would be original research because it hadn't previously been published. Does that answer your question? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:15, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

(ec)

If you mean, can you take it from a Wikipedia discussion page and put it in an article - then no.

Wikipedia articles only contain facts that have been published in reliable sources. A Wikipedia discussion page is not a reliable source (in the same way that blogs and other 'user-generated content' are not) - the discussion pages do not have 'editorial control' or a 'reputation for fact-checking and accuracy'.

It would have to be published elsewhere, before we could use it.

{{Help Me}} oops - I found a tool here: http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/pcount/index.php?name=Peter+cohen&lang=en&wiki=wikinews with graphics that I wanted, and this section just appeared. IDK what I did. I wanted those graphs, not some identity thing Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 01:40, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please tell us what you exactly need, and when you do, either when you reply to Dusti|Dusti, or in general, feel free to replace the {{helpme}} block in your userspace, and we will be able to help you, or you can join us in our IRC channel at #wikipedia-en-help with the webclient or directly with #wikipedia-en-help Thanks! --Wolfnix • Talk • 05:08, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Let's close the help me. I did cite the wrong hyperlink, above, and it does indeed have no graphics. I was on a user page, which I can't find. This guy had a pie chart that summarized where he had been editing, e.g., a segment for articles, discussion, etc. I usually stay on discussion pages because I still fear messing up references by inserting anything with a reference. So, I would have a large segment for "discussion", which might be unusual and help characterize me to other editors when I do try to edit in actual articles. Thanks Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 10:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your own edit stats are here. I wouldn't worry too much about the percentages; look at my own, which is over 40% to user talks, because I mostly help users.

It's good to edit at least some articles though. Don't be worried about references; it's really quite easy. Just put the ref details in-between <ref> and </ref>, and that will do fine.

Whatever you put in-between the <ref> and the </ref> will appear automatically in the references section.

Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

Speedy deletion nomination of Youvan's Apologetics

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Youvan's Apologetics, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Teapotgeorge^Talk 15:20, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Youvan's Apologetics, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Teapotgeorge, top banner reads: "This user believes the world would be a happier, safer and saner place without religion." Other editors can determine for themselves if that is an obvious POV to attack someone like Youvan in favor of someone like Dawkings. I thought we wanted wikipedia to be a place for people to find reliable information. TeaPot is on the verge of censorship and defamation. Youvan is a living person.

Replying... JohnCD (talk) 16:25, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies but as I said in my edit summary, with a quick reading of the article it did indeed appear to be nonsense. I see now that it has been deleted as a copyright infringement. Please assume good faith I am not out to attack, censor or defame anyone either!!! Kind regardsTeapotgeorge^Talk 16:37, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please also note that Wikipedia:No personal attacks states.. "Do not make personal attacks. Comment on content, not on the contributor. Personal attacks do not help make a point; they only hurt the Wikipedia community and deter users from helping to create a good encyclopaedia." Kind Regards. Teapotgeorge^Talk 18:25, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do not think that either the "nonsense" or "advertising" tags were appropriate; but I have deleted the article because it was a copyright violation - a direct copy from Youvan's website. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere - see Wikipedia:Copy-paste - unless a formal copyright release has been made, as described at WP:Copyrights#Contributors' rights and obligations. Assertion of permission to reproduce is not enough.

I do not advise you to organise a copyright release, though, because the article is unsuitable for other reasons, particularly our policy of publishing WP:No original research. An article about Youvan and his views might be appropriate, if "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" can be cited to establish notability, but Wikipedia is not a place to publish extended copies of his writings. They might be acceptable to our sister site Wikisource - I don't know their inclusion policies. JohnCD (talk) 16:42, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see he has an article at Douglas Youvan. JohnCD (talk) 16:54, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Youvan's website reads that the contents are released to the public domain. You might be reading a cached copy. Refresh directly from www.youvan.org. I don't want an edit war. I am a newbie with no vested interests. If this is going to turn into a war, I will just go away. There are lots of blue words that could be linked into the article - why not just help instead of delete?Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 17:17, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I see on the home page that the site is PD - apologies, I had only looked at the source page. Very well, I will restore it, but I will also nominate it at Articles for deletion, which will start a debate lasting seven days, to which you will be welcome to contribute. The answer to your question "Why delete?" is that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and only remains one by having clear policies about what to include, one of which is WP:NOR: "Wikipedia does not publish original research. The term "original research" refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and stories—not already published by reliable sources." A reliable source, for this purpose, means one with some independent editorial control, so prior publication on Youvan's website is not enough. JohnCD (talk) 17:29, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Are you saying that if a newspaper picks up this deletion, it becomes newsworthy, and then the article is publishable? Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 18:05, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's not a case of being newsworthy, the question is whether these ideas have attracted independent comment. WP:NOR again: "If no reliable third-party sources can be found on an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article about it." Read the whole of WP:NOR to understand what it's getting at. We wouldn't in any case quote someone's work in extenso like this - what an encyclopedia does is summarise material which has already been published elsewhere. See also WP:NOTLINK #3 and WP:NOTSOAPBOX #1 and 2 - all part of the rather long list of What Wikipedia is not, by which we try to remain an encyclopedia. I would think the right treatment of this is a mention in Youvan's article, with a link to that page of his website. JohnCD (talk) 18:46, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Youvan's Apologetics for deletion

A discussion has begun about whether the article Youvan's Apologetics, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Youvan's Apologetics until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. JohnCD (talk) 17:48, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

John: I don't see how the primary website for Youvan's biography could be considered unreliable. It’s not-for-profit; the biography (in progress) can be freely downloaded. I know Youvan’s questions are irritating to most people. That is expected in polemics. In any debate over deletion, do you really believe that our editors can free themselves of faith-based POV’s? Youvan's questions could cause hate and anger in some editors. Very few people are open to a change of faith and they will find any reason they can to delete Youvan’s Apologetics. Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 18:29, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have another question: If a journal or newspaper picks up this deletion, or deletion debate, and publishes Youvan's questions in apologetics, does that somehow make this article reliable? Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 18:32, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You don't need to put "helpme" each time, I am watching this page. Answer coming soon, but it may be an hour or so, real life is intruding... JohnCD (talk) 18:50, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I just got hacked - got to my child's computer but not this one. Expert told me to "go pull ISP records on sockets". You guys debate this - I'm off here. bye Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 19:32, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure Youvan's website is reliable in that it reproduces his views accurately, but that's not the point: it's a self-published source and so not independent. Anyone can set up a website and propound his views on it; if he could use that as a basis for copying them into Wikipedia, we would cease to be an encyclopedia and become a notice-board, soap-box or discussion forum.

No, it's not a case of being newsworthy, the question is whether these ideas have attracted independent comment. WP:NOR again: "If no reliable third-party sources can be found on an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article about it." Read the whole of WP:NOR to understand what it's getting at. In fact, it would help you to read all our three, somewhat interlinked, key content policies:

We wouldn't in any case reproduce someone's work in extenso like this - what an encyclopedia does is summarise material which has already been published elsewhere. See also WP:NOTLINK #3 and WP:NOTSOAPBOX #1 and 2 - all part of the rather long list of What Wikipedia is not, by which we try to remain an encyclopedia.

I would think the right way for Wikipedia to treat this is with a mention in Youvan's article, with a link to that page of his website, and I have added that here.

One of Wikipedia's most important guidelines for contributors is Assume good faith. Please do not assume that anyone who disagrees with you has a political or religious motivation. Exactly the same no original research arguments would be applied to someone trying to copy into Wikipedia extended passages from Richard Dawkins' website. The deletion debate will be conducted in terms of Wikipedia's policies. It is possible that some contributors may be unable to "free themselves of faith-based POV’s" and may base opinions on whether they agree or disagree with the content, but the uninvolved administrator who closes the debate will discount any such opinions. Note that although participants in the debate will write Keep or Delete, this is not a count of heads - the administrator will decide which side makes the better case in terms of policies. The question is not, is the article right? wrong? irritating? upsetting? but is it original research in terms of WP:NOR? If so, whatever its POV, it has no place in Wikipedia.

And no, before you say it, this is not censorship, the First Amendment does not require Wikipedia to give a platform to all comers - see WP:Free Speech.

I hope you manage to get un-hacked soon. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 20:40, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

November 2010

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Youvan's Apologetics. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Teapotgeorge^Talk 19:42, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Then I will take you to be a "ruling authority", and submit to your governance:

Romans 13 (New International Version)

Submission to Governing Authorities

1 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities,

for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience. 6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

Thank you Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 21:09, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

36.How could a physicist prove that the problem he was studying had no underlying and/or solvable mathematics?

37.If you were Adam, and God was having you name the animals, what would you call a horse?

38.Does acceptance of Darwin somehow promote abortion, in vitro fertilization, stem cell therapy and/or eugenics?

39.Sometime in the future, will valid scientific challenges to Darwinism be considered "hate speech"?

40.Has Dysgenics now taken the form that the rich are superior to the poor?

41.Could we be on the verge of genetic engineering experiments wherein human pain and suffering do not matter?

46.In church, why do we say we are "the people of God", when we really do not know God's will?

49.Do human secularists really believe that the elimination of religions would stop wars?

50.What is the difference between a person that was a Believer from childhood and a person Born Again at an old age?

60.Why did God put something as simple as the Lorentz factor into Relativity?

61.After Heisenberg, why did Einstein turn towards dice (and a non-existent unified field theory) instead of God?

62.When was the population of the Earth 100% Christian?

63.When was the population of the Earth 100% Jewish?

64.If a non-Believer partially denies the touch of the Holy Spirit, will they be perceived as having a psychiatric disorder?

Help me to end this dispute. I just deleted as much of the article as I know how. Bridgettttttte_babble^poop 21:35, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, it's not a dispute, this is the normal way we do business here; this is extremely good-tempered compared to some discussions. The article has been restored, because we don't delete things in the middle of a deletion debate. A suggestion has been made there that we keep the title as a "redirect" to the section in Youvan's article whih I have inserted about his apologetics, so anyone who clicks on it will get taken there; and that, in turn, has a link to the web site. If you are agreeable to that, it seems to me a good solution, and I will back up the proposal at the deletion debate. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:46, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
