Natural Law
This is about the natural law page. I understand that you feel that it is superfluous to say that some of the early Church fathers accepted the natural law tradition despite its pagan origins, and that this qualification is at any rate unsubstantiated. Yet I feel it is important to note &mdash; if not to emphasize &mdash; that a number of other Church fathers opposed the introduction of natural law theory and terminology into Christianity, and did so because of its origin among the pagan Stoics. And later, this was the explicit criticism of Martin Luther of Thomas Aquinas. I have consequently restored the offending phrase.

racial conversion machine
That was, by any standard, the funniest vandalism i have ever, ever, ever read. i don't think i would have been able to hit "undo" on that. your fortitude is astounding. --Chalyres 00:10, 9 February 2007 (UTC)


 * For sake of preservation, here is the content that I deleted:
 * A little-known aspect of the abolitionist movement was a plan by Thomas Jefferson to turn everyone white. Since white Americans could not be enslaved, slavery would end, as Jefferson had wanted. He hired Benjamin Franklin to build a Racial Conversion machine, which sent out Euro-waves thorughout the American Republic. The waves, however, had no success in transforming non-white people into whites and the plan backfired when Jefferson and Franklin turned purple for a day, becoming the normal skin color by that night, much to their relief. It is unsure exactly when this happened, but it must have happened before or during 1790, since that is the year that Franklin died.

"Vandalism"?
Emote, how can you message me and say I committed "vandalism"? All that junk about some boss in "Star Fox" on a page about a Greek mythological creature should be considered "vandalism", not my removal of it. I suspect you're the one who added that useless info in the first place, given your attack on me. Get real. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.4.207.20 (talk) 04:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC).


 * Thanks for the apology, I see now how you could have misinterpreted my edits. If I came off abbrasive in my defense, it was only because I mean well to this website and have little patience for vandals myself, so being accused of acting like one may have struck a nerve. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.4.207.20 (talk) 22:34, 8 March 2007 (UTC).

Archiving
"Archiving of one's own user talk page is not required. A user may simply delete any comments they have read, whether they have acted on them or not. The only exception to this are warnings of vandalism and other abuse on anon IP talk pages. These must be retained so that admins can readily apply or remove edit blocks."

The Sligh discussion is better posted on the "List" page, and the miscellaneous parts of it do not need to be retained on my talk page as well.--John Foxe 13:13, 16 March 2007 (UTC)


 * One may delete all material from one's own talk pages. The only material that may not be deleted are "warnings of vandalism and other abuse on anon IP talk pages."--John Foxe 18:12, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
 * "If you feel that your user talk page is getting too large and is taking a long time to load, you may archive it. You may then remove comments from your talk page, but please make sure that those comments are readily accessible on another page. … Removing warnings, whether for vandalism or other forms of prohibited/discouraged behavior, from one's talk page is also considered vandalism" (Removing warnings).
 * "Removing warnings from one's own talk page is often frowned upon" (Types of vandalism).
 * —Emote Talk Page 18:12, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I wonder if anyone has noticed that these statements from different parts of Wikipedia don't square with one another? In fact, the two you quote aren't completely congruent either, one calling removal of warnings "vandalism" and the other saying only that the practice is "often frowned upon."--John Foxe 20:09, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Upon further research, I discovered that this policy is still being formulated. My apologies for appealing to what I mistakenly thought was a fixed rule. During RCP I often issue warnings to anonymous IP vandals for blanking their own talk pages. I always assumed the rule applied to all users, anonymous or registered. But apparently there is some debate about whether a user talk page is primarily the Wikipedia community's property or the individual user's property. At any rate, I won't plague your talk page over a disputed policy, although I would still ask you not to "hound" pages. You would go a long way towards maintaining rapport with other editors if you were to show respect for good-faith edits, especially when such edits are helpful and informative additions to an article.—Emote Talk Page 02:58, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I certainly accept your apology. I believe we could easily work together. (It's uncanny how similar are our non-professional interests.)--John Foxe 10:32, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I'm recommending to all participants in WikiProject Calvinism that they keep up with at least the News page for this project. The methods I'd recommend for doing this are any or all of:
 * Add the abovementioned page to your watchlist
 * Include the page on another page you look at regularly; in my case, this is my user page, since I keep my personal "todo" list there. That would look something like:

Thank you
"Allegations of gaming were legitimate (see Yakuman's talk page)—troll warning is unnecessary"

Thank you for this. I really appreciate it.

Pro Rege, Yakuman 02:47, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * A troll warning is never really "necessary". It might be helpful, though, if there is a general breakdown of trust; where motives are discredited, where cooperation is hampered.  It is not an accusation.  It is advice: don't react. &mdash; Mark (Mkmcconn) ** 02:53, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Mark, I never asked for an edit war. I did ask that you not confuse the uninitiated, a point that is apparently misunderstood. This is a simple task -- and it shouldn't be turned into a popularity contest or a voting booth. It shows the challenge of creating unrefereed articles about religious matters.

As for Barth, he could never be considered an of Calvinism. You seem willing to take strident measures ("protecting" the template, chopping it up, or eliminating it entirely) to protect your ability to claim otherwise. This obviously violates NPOV, since at minimum, it is a debatable point upon which Wikipedia is neutral. Even worse, leaving it in can mislead the unschooled ones astray. It would be better for such an editor that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. But at least it won't be my neck. =) Yakuman 02:52, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Template:Calvinism
Emote, please tell me your evaluation of what is happening on that page. You seem to have a different perception; can you explain it? &mdash; Mark (Mkmcconn) ** 02:49, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Mark, I'm not sure whether you're asking for my comments about the RB/Barth issue or the Yakuman/Flex/trolling/gaming issue. I'll assume the latter. If you review Yakuman's talk page, you will see that Flex accused him of violating consensus, engaging in "disruptive behavior," and further attempted to bully him with the threat(?) of a 3RR block. On March 26, when I looked at the history of the page in question, I found that Yakuman had made only two recent reverts. You and Flex had shown support for Barth's inclusion; Yakuman and I had opposed it. Four people splitting their votes 50-50 is not a consensus. Hence my comment to that effect. Regarding the trolling warning, I still don't understand what that was for. Originally I left it alone. But after Yakuman took offense and removed it, you reverted his changes and expressed that the warning was in fact directed at him. I removed it because (1) there was no trolling on the page, (2) it appeared to be a sort of under-the-table insult, and (3) nothing productive was going to result from it. Hope that answers your question. If not, drop me another message and I'll try again.—Emote Talk Page 06:16, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, as I've said, I don't really argue for Barth's inclusion; but in the face of a wider view of things, I conceded - and I've explained why. Flex worked on gathering views. Yakuman ignored these proceedings and did as he pleased. Flex reacted.

My "trolling" advice was directed to Yakuman and to Flex, as one complained of being gamed, and the other complained of "disruptive behavior". I advised Yakuman not to react - whether he thinks he's being played, or whether he's the player, makes no difference.

But you seem to think that I'm picking on Yakuman, by trying to get him to work collaboratively instead of unilaterally. Is that really your view? &mdash; Mark (Mkmcconn) ** 07:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * There's nothing wrong with unilateral edits. I've made thousands of them.  Apparently one editor believes that certain articles are his turf and he intends to defend it, claiming a silent consensus supporting him.  My edits were within policy, but the reversals, with no clear justification, are simply disruptive.  If I take your words seriously, which I do, it seems only one person cares about including Barth!  So why on Earth did you get get sucked into defending the wrong side? Yakuman 09:23, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, when objections are raised to what you're doing, and discussion is attempted, but unilateral editing goes on, there is something "wrong" with that. I got "sucked into" defending doing things in an orderly way.  &mdash; Mark (Mkmcconn) ** 16:18, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, Flex worked on gathering views (one of which was mine). The summation of those views did not exhibit any kind of agreement on the issue. Even if they had, Yakuman is still free to make good-faith changes to the template. Because silence is interpreted as consensus on Wikipedia, one method of demonstrating a lack of consensus is simply not to be silent. At any rate, the fact that Flex was gathering views does not imply that Yakuman should not have been making edits during that time.


 * AFAIK, complaining of abuse from other editors does not constitute trolling. Neither Flex nor Yakuman is/was guilty of trolling in this discussion.


 * I don't think I said that you are "picking on" Yakuman, did I? Whether he works collaboratively or unilaterally is of little concern to me. Part of the Wikipedia process is "the fight." That's just the way things work here. If he has the desire and the stamina to fight this battle, he's free to do so without being accused of trolling.—Emote Talk Page 15:29, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I've answered back on my talk page. Collaboration is all this community will acknowledge of a shared ethic, and it is important to me for that reason. &mdash; Mark (Mkmcconn) ** 16:18, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Gaming the system
Emote, I strive to be a helpful, fair, and spirit-of-the-law-abiding Wikipedian, and if I have failed in that, I would like to be corrected so I can know how to do things better in the future. I see what you said above about how you see this matter, but I hope you'll let me explain my side of the story and tell me if and where I went wrong. Semper reformanda.

First, a matter of policy: WP:3RR is not only concerned with 3 reverts within a 24 hour period (which neither Yakuman nor I had violated). To quote the policy: "Editors may still be blocked even if they have not made more than three edits in any given 24 hour period, if their behavior is clearly disruptive" (emphasis in the original). Disruptive behavior is defined in WP:DE and includes an editor who is "tendentious" (i.e., he "continues editing an article or group of articles in pursuit of a certain point for an extended time despite opposition from one or more other editors") and "rejects community input" (the community referenced in the guideline is the third-party mediation procedures, but I'd suggest that Yakuman had rejected community input at an even earlier stage of dispute resolution by not discussing things with us on the talk page when it was clear there was disagreement). I believe I have properly followed the outlined model for dealing with disruptive editors.

As I see it, after a bit of back and forth, I appropriately left Yakuman's deletion of Barth and the Reformed Baptists, stopping the potential edit war, and brought the discussion to the talk page (cf. WP:DR and WP:CONSENSUS). Mark, Brian, and I all agreed explicitly that the RBs should remain. An anon (who is not me, and because of the apparent newbie slip of adding a non-existent link to the template, I presume is not any of the others who were involved) also registered support by re-adding a synonymous entry for RBs. Though I had left the template alone and waited for further discussion for a week, Yakuman didn't join us, though that would have been the appropriate step under the aforementioned guidelines. Add to this small consensus that there are numerous articles about notables such as Bunyan, Gill, Spurgeon, Boyce, Piper, Mohler, Begg, and even odd-balls like MacArthur that are members of Category:Calvinists, and Reformed churches includes RBs, while Reformed Christian confessions of faith includes the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith. The content of the template, of the categories, and of the Reformed articles have stably included Baptists for quite some time, though anyone could have changed it. This sort of silence and stability, WP:CONSENSUS says, implies consent. Therefore, I maintain that I was strongly in the right and not gaming the system on this point. On the other hand, Yakuman was acting unilaterally where there was clearly dispute and an implicit and explicit consensus against his unsubstantiated (and unargued!) view.

With respect to Barth, I agree the consensus was less clear, but I still contend that it was in my favor. The same sort of arguments apply here: we debated including Barth at some length on the talk page going on two years ago, and three of us came to unanimity on the matter. Barth has been in Category:Reformed theologians for two years and had been before I ever edited the article. In any case, only Mark had responded about Barth on the talk page and a week had gone by. Since we had previously reached a small consensus, since Barth had long been categorized as a Reformed theologian, and since the only other responder agreed Barth should stay (note that you responded after I had issued the 3RR warning), I felt the reversions and the 3RR warning were justified. Had he deleted only Barth, for whom the case is clearly weaker, but left the RBs, for whom there is a pretty clear consensus, I probably would have acted differently, but Yakuman's repeated deletion of both together without discussion seemed in clear violation of wikiquette and WP:DR and was disruptive.

In short, I don't doubt that Yakuman was acting in good faith with his deletions, but it was obvious by the back-and-forth that there was dispute about the matter. Yet he did not come to the talk page per WP:DR. That refusal to engage the community coupled with an insistence on a controversial position qualifies as disruptive editing, which is why I warned him that he might be in danger of being blocked if he persisted.

Please let me hear your thoughts on my account, Emote. --Fl e x (talk|contribs) 17:15, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * It seems that I am largely ignorant of the histories of both the Barth question and the dispute with Yakuman. As you know, I am new to this page and almost certainly would not have involved myself in the argument except that I was asked for my input on a particular question. I assumed that my opinion was requested because of a lack of consensus. (Usually when there is existing consensus on an issue, additional opinions are not sought out.) However, this assumption was apparently mistaken, as a general consensus was achieved quite some time ago. Forgive me for my misconception here as well as my intrusion into an aged dispute with Yakuman, and please excuse me from this discussion. My time constraints are such that I can't respond as punctually as I would like. Furthermore, Barth's presence or absence in the template is not important to me.—Emote Talk Page 08:52, 31 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Your comments were not intrusive in any way. I'm thankful for them, and for the guide that they provided in preventing me from dealing more harshly with the disagreement with the other user. God bless. &mdash; Mark (Mkmcconn) ** 09:38, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

CMOS transistor
Eric, your new CMOS transistor drawing is confusingly inaccurate, I think. In particular, you show the gate very thin compared to the oxide, which is exactly backwards. And you show a depletion region that corresponds to only a particular unusual state of the device; since the depletion region is not a structural feature, it might be best to omit it. Let me know if you need a better source to work from. Dicklyon 20:45, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Free Presbyterian Church Edit War
Emote, you know the score on Wikipedia. Even if users don't abuse the 3RR, they can still be referred to admin for edit warring. I issued a warning on Wolfpelt's page. Personally (and I stated this on the FP talk page) I agree with you - honorary doctrates are legal qualifications - if this can't be resolved, I think we need the arbitration committee to sort this out but that is last resort. This is now a 27 edit long war. Olly150 23:16, 17 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Emote, I understand completely where your coming from. You just can't work with guys who refuse to discuss the matter. Maybe a block is just what we need to wake him up and get him to stop these edits. Your's is the last edit so if he decides to revert, we can consider the advice given on the Admin Notice Board 3RR. The preliminary advice here is to talk it through, but since our guy isn't too keen on that, we may need to report it. An admin can block him or protect the page, but hopefully it won't come to that. We'll see what his response to my warning is and take it from there. Hopefully this can be sorted once and for all - 27 edits is a long list of the same thing. Thanks Olly150  01:29, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Examples of convolution
I saw the wiki page, but I couldn't find any examples using actual numbers evaluating the formula. Could you give some examples of convolution, please? Mathijs Krijzer (talk) 22:13, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Definition
The convolution of f and g is written f∗g, using an asterisk or star. It is defined as the integral of the product of the two functions after one is reversed and shifted. As such, it is a particular kind of integral transform:




 * $$(f * g )(t)\ \ \,$$
 * $$\stackrel{\mathrm{def}}{=}\ \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(\tau)\, g(t - \tau)\, d\tau$$
 * $$= \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(t-\tau)\, g(\tau)\, d\tau.$$      (commutativity)
 * }
 * $$= \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(t-\tau)\, g(\tau)\, d\tau.$$      (commutativity)
 * }

Domain of definition
The convolution of two complex-valued functions on Rd
 * $$(f*g)(x) = \int_{\mathbf{R}^d}f(y)g(x-y)\,dy$$

is well-defined only if f and g decay sufficiently rapidly at infinity in order for the integral to exist. Conditions for the existence of the convolution may be tricky, since a blow-up in g at infinity can be easily offset by sufficiently rapid decay in f. The question of existence thus may involve different conditions on f and g.

Circular discrete convolution
When a function gN is periodic, with period N, then for functions, f, such that f∗gN exists, the convolution is also periodic and identical to:


 * $$(f * g_N)[n] \equiv \sum_{m=0}^{N-1} \left(\sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty {f}[m+kN] \right) g_N[n-m].\,$$

Circular convolution
When a function gT is periodic, with period T, then for functions, f, such that f∗gT exists, the convolution is also periodic and identical to:


 * $$(f * g_T)(t) \equiv \int_{t_0}^{t_0+T} \left[\sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty f(\tau + kT)\right] g_T(t - \tau)\, d\tau,$$

where to is an arbitrary choice. The summation is called a periodic summation of the function f.

Discrete convolution
For complex-valued functions f, g defined on the set Z of integers, the discrete convolution of f and g is given by:


 * $$(f * g)[n]\ \stackrel{\mathrm{def}}{=}\ \sum_{m=-\infty}^\infty f[m]\, g[n - m]$$
 * $$= \sum_{m=-\infty}^\infty f[n-m]\, g[m].$$      (commutativity)

When multiplying two polynomials, the coefficients of the product are given by the convolution of the original coefficient sequences, extended with zeros where necessary to avoid undefined terms; this is known as the Cauchy product of the coefficients of the two polynomials.
