User talk:4pq1injbok

Welcome, number fan! Glad to have you here at Wikipedia. I'm also glad about your interest in number theory. Your discussion with User:Anton Mravcek about representations of 1/2 has got me thinking. But I'm supposed to suggest to you some general open tasks:

Glad to have you aboard, man. PrimeFan 02:37, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome! I've now taken a bunch of stuff from HAKMEM and created an article on the interesting prime 239. (Incidentally, is this the customary place to respond, or should it be on your talk page or something?) 4pq1injbok 03:17, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure about that, I've seen it done a bunch of different ways. If you reply on my talk page then I'm going to be notified I have a message the next time I log in. But then the flow of the conversation is broken across two pages. Replying on the same makes the flow of the conversation readily understood to other users, but it might take longer between replies.

Predictable
"Long-distance assimilation" no matter what is vague to the average reader. Long-distance to what? "Non-adjacent assimilation" is also used, look it up) and it's more obvious what it means. Please take your autism elsewhere, nerd. LOL!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.79.73.9 (talk) 05:46, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

nice flame war you started over nothing, pig. ROFL! you're obvious. and you're still a nerd who can't focus on the real shit. ROFL!

Your User page
I just responded to your thoughtful comments on pronic/oblong/heteromecic #s at Talk:Heteromecic number. When you get a chance you ought to write your user page so that your username doesn't keep showing up in red, even if it's just to say "Hello everyone." PrimeFan 20:34, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Yes, 4pq1injbok, it's nice to have your own user page. For one thing, people don't question your edits as much. I heard somewhere there's a deletionist who reverts newbies' edits without even reading them. Anton Mravcek 21:19, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)


 * That seems highly unlikely, because such behavior would get that user banned for violations of Wikipedia policies. RickK 21:26, Jul 27, 2004 (UTC)


 * It does sound unlikely, but the behavior of some deletionists can be quite outrageous sometimes. Hopefully our new friend 4pq1injbok won't have any run-ins with them.

Can we get an oversighter to revdel this? JohnSmith13345 (talk) 16:42, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

sorting "other fields"
I want to sort other fields for the number articles, but i can't remember where the sorting criteria is on the wikiproject numbers page or if its somewhere else (I need to know it because their will inevitably be disagreements about what should come before what). Its something along the lines of "the most universal and eternal first, the most local and ephemeral last" I can't remember where i read that. Do you know where that's at? Numerao 23:03, 22 August 2005 (UTC)


 * (Sorry about the delay; I've been on vacation for two weeks.)
 * There's something about that on the project page, section 3.1, Outline of Template (and you quoted it with surprising accuracy for not remembering where it is). But overall, my impression is that we've devoted much less attention to the order of these properties than the order of the mathematical properties; and anyway, it's not always clear which of two properties is the more universal and eternal.
 * That said, I'd like to help with this sorting as well. User:Anton Mravcek has alrady declared his intention to undertake the sorting, but he appears to be sorting by general topic as opposed to by ephemerality.   4pq1injbok 01:49, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Moved from my main user page
Hey! Do you have a reference that talks about the property of (Z/24Z)* you mentioned at 24 (number)? I'm interested to see how that property arises in connection with Moonshine. Sigfpe 17:21, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Hare
I saw that you had written well informed things on the talk page for the Slave language, in particular the Hare dialect. I have become interested in the Hare dialect of Slave and have found the easy to find bibliographic things. I am however interested in being in touch with a linguist or linguists actively doing research on Hare or other Slave dialects and would really like to be in contact with speakers of Hare. Would you be able to offer any advice? Thank you --Tibetologist (talk) 15:39, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not really in a good position to come up with anyone. My own interest in linguistics is decidedly avocational, and I don't really know much about Slave.  (If I remember right, when I was editing the Slave page, I'd just come across Crippen's materials on Tlingit, which in one of his survey sections cited someone identifying these Hare consonants more plausibly-sounding than the statement Wikipedia had at the time.)  The closest I'd have to a personal contact is a professor at the University of Calgary that I had in undergrad who'd worked on Athabaskan phonology, Darin Howe, but it'd probably be just as out-of-the-blue for me to write him as for you to, at this juncture... 4pq1injbok (talk) 22:26, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Vietnamese (Alphabet and other pages)
Hi, noticed some of the changes you made to the consonant section that I revised. I appreciate a lot of the rewording, and some of the changes you made helped bring it in line with other Vietnamese pages. That being said, I don't necessarily agree with the assessment of $⟨kh⟩$ being realized as [kʰ] in the South, and it doesn't seem to be in line with other articles either. I've never heard of this myself or in texts, could you provide any sources for this? Hopefully we can work together to improve the quality of these pages over time. Mijcon (talk) 23:38, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I hadn't checked the primary sources there. For that change I was also going by Vietnamese phonology as it existed at the time, but I see that you've changed that as well (and I don't know what other articles are relevant).  You should probably ask whoever put [kʰ] in there in the first instance &mdash; ah, here it is,.
 * My first attempt to Google a source up yields which chooses /x/ as the phoneme symbol, seemingly out of tidiness of analysis (it needed a fortis velar continuant to fill out the table), but notes that it has "an allophone with stop onset" (p 458, fn 10). 4pq1injbok (talk) 06:15, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Awesome, thank you. I would presume that in the 55 years since its publishing the allophone may have disappeared. I see no reason to keep [kʰ] listed anywhere, since the accepted phoneme would be /x/ and I don't think the goal is necessarily precise phones but rather the core phonemes. Do you agree? Mijcon (talk) 16:41, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, you may be correct, and I'm not one to wave the rulebook in people's faces, but as you know they like reliable sources around here, not just personal experience. So it'd seem best if you found one: the one I turned up says there is (was) this [kʰ] allophone.  But if you just wanna be bold, I won't stop you.
 * For the record, I asked Caisse Phung. 4pq1injbok (talk) 20:49, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I'll see what I can find. There aren't many sources on Southern dialect, but I also think that there existing "an allophone with stop onset" is very different from "the phoneme consists of a stop onset". In your experience, have you ever heard [kʰ] from a Southern speaker? Just curious. Mijcon (talk) 21:55, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Euler operator (digital geometry)


A tag has been placed on Euler operator (digital geometry) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://firemonkey35.rssing.com/chan-65778027/all_p2.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
