User talk:Cat2020

Hello and welcome here. I noticed your edits on Scientific Computation. In answer to your question "how do you link in Wikipedia???": I am not sure what you mean, perhaps How to edit a page or External links answers your question. Also, could you Please include some references to articles in the literature discussing "Scientific Computation" in the above meaning? We have a no-original-research policy here, which means that one cannot include one's own unpublished research.

Anyway, I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some more good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;) for just your name. If you have any questions, you can post to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page at User talk:Jitse Niesen. Again, welcome! -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 09:32, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

On links
Welcome from me too! Some remarks. There is a policy somewhere that says that if a link already exists in text, it should not be showing up in the "see also" section.

For example, you added a link to numerical analysis at the bottom of root-finding algorithms. However, that is a bit reduntant, it is clear from the introduction that this is a numerical analysis article, and the link to numerical analysis is there. so, putting it in the "See also" section is not that helpful.

This is a very minor thing, but I thought I would let you know. And thank you for your additions to the introduction of numerical analysis, I like how it sounds. Enjoy! Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:00, 26 November 2005 (UTC)


 * PS It is good if you put an edit summary when you contribute, it helps others see what you are up to. Cheers, Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:00, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

On naming
One more remark about style. On Wikipedia we try not to use capitals too much. So, saying "trapezoidal rule" is better than "Trapezoidal Rule". I changed that at numerical analysis. Thanks. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 23:21, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Web-screenshot tag
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. I've noticed you've uploaded some images tagged with web-screenshot. This tag is not meant to be used for images that came from Web pages; it's meant to be used for images of Web pages (such as Image:Google screenshot.png, for example). I've retagged the images below as having no license information. Please make sure that Wikipedia has permission to use these images. Then edit the image description pages to include information about the licenses these images are under. You may find an appropriate tag at Image copyright tags or Template messages, or if none of these fit you may write a description of the license yourself. You may want to refer to the image use policy. If the use of this image on Wikipedia is a copyright violation, please follow the steps at Images and media for deletion to nominate this image to be deleted. If you have any questions, please feel free to post a message on my talk page. —Bkell 06:49, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:PaulBecker.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:PaulBecker.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL-self to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Image Tagging Image:MichaelChristopher.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:MichaelChristopher.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too.
