Dwyer function
I read the new article that you created at Dwyer Function. If you have references from reliable sources that refer to this function by this name, it would be a good idea to add them to the article, to demonstrate that it does not breach Wikipedia's "no original research" policy.

Hi Gandalf61. Thanks for the tip - I have added reliable sources to the page and will add more soon.


 * I see you have provided a link to a paper at Algana Associates. I think this falls under the category of self-published sources, which are not generally regarded as reliable sources in Wikipedia. A reference to the term "Dwyer function" in a peer-reviewed publication would be better. Also, if you are the same John Dwyer who authored that paper, you should make sure you are aware of the guidelines at Conflict of interest. Gandalf61 (talk) 11:17, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

I've brought that page closer to the conventions of Manual of Style and Manual of Style (mathematics). In particular, note the lower-case initial "f" in the article's title and the various math notation edits I did. Michael Hardy (talk) 16:35, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
