Picard went by Emile, not Charles Emile[edit]

Hi, Cutler, good catch. I was trying to make the link read "Emile Picard", because as my citations show, that is the name he went by. But the biography, not improperly, uses his full name, Charles Emile Picard. I think that in cases like this, we want to cite the name the historical character was best known by, but of course we want to make sure the reader gets to the correct article. I think the solution I just entered solves this problem and serves as a model for similar cases in the future.

Moveable, not removeable[edit]

Hi, Oleg,

Thanks, but I did mean to say moveable rather than removeable. Despite the similar appearance of these two nouns, they denote completely different notions! So I changed removeable singularity back to moveable singularity ---3 July 2005 06:18 (UTC)

Graphs[edit]

Would it be too much to ask to make some graphs for these interesting functions? --HappyCamper 18:31, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yup. Diagrams are definitely needed. Reyk _YO! 09:40, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Surely theses graphs are a joke? These are nonlinear complex differential equations, so just drawing one graph captures very little of their behavior. Maybe remove the graphs, or draw many many more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.199.2.16 (talk) 10:42, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Degenerations[edit]

In the section titled "Degenerations", there is no explanation of what that term means in this context nor any relevant wikilink. Can someone provide something? Michael Kinyon (talk) 02:50, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
