Please don't insert external links all over the place. I did not find them so helpful and you seem to be way too insistent. If other people find them useful they will add them themselves, without you doing that again and again. Thanks. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 03:04, 27 October 2006 (UTC)


 * First of all, I am not adding links "all over the place". I am adding links where they seem to be appropiate. Secondly, I am quite sure you have not even read trough the contents of such links. You have not explained why you don't find them so helpful, so please, elaborate your remarks otherwise I will not understand your reasons for erasing some selected links. -- Arithmonic (copied from User talk:Oleg Alexandrov)


 * I agree with Oleg that they're not useful. The main problem is that the webpage seems to be about a mathematical theory which is not published in a reliable source like peer-reviewed journals. Furthermore, there is no analysis of the new root-finding methods. The text is impossible to understand. You added the link to Newton's method, yet the web page is not at all about Newton's method. That's why I am removing the link. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 12:03, 27 October 2006 (UTC)


 * And don't insist, really. Make your case on each individual talk page and let us see what people say. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 16:02, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, Cube root, Nth root, Mediant, Arithmetic mean and Mean.
