Convex Function
I put back "in" instead of ε at convex function. The general Wikipedia style is to avoid symbolic notation unless necessary, and use words if that suffices. Hope that's fine with you. You can reply here if you have comments. Thanks. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 03:28, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Metric space aimed at its subspace
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Metric space aimed at its subspace, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add db-author to the top of the page.

 * As I said in the tag on the article, Wikipedia is not the place for random listings of numbers. If there is going to be an article, explain the numbers rather than simply listing them. Make an article about the numbers, equations, etc if you think that it should be kept. In its current format, the article should not be on Wikipedia. Captain   panda  23:03, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, the reason that I did not respond sooner is that I was not on my computer at the time. Sorry, that you had to wait for a response. Captain   panda  23:05, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I am sorry, but I do not see how I am interfering. I simply nominated it for proposed deletion. Whether the article is deleted or not is not decided by me at this point as I am not an administator. The purpose of Wikipedia is not to guide someone throughout all the intricacies of mathematics as policy found here indicates. I hope this explains why I think that it should be deleted.

Re: your comments
I replied on my talk page on the two topics you started there. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 04:37, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Interwiki on personal page
Hi, Wlod, nice to meet hou here.

I see you inform readers of your nickname here and pl-wiki — so I think you might want to add interlanguage links on both your peronal pages:  en:User:Wlod  on pl-wiki, and  pl:User:Wlod  here. --CiaPan 13:53, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Your remarks
I am not aware of your training as a mathematician, but the kind of needless insulting remarks you made about the administrator Arthur Rubin and myself are quite uncalled for. What you wrote on the talk page of prime number seems to be your own point of view and seems to have little to do with standard usage in the mathematical profession. Why not contribute to the wikipedia with some real contributions to mathematics articles rather than pedantic quibbles? Mathsci 21:46, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Please try to avoid (a) self-promotion on the WP; (b) making personal allegations of harrassment in WP edit summaries. You should be aware that most practising mathematicians avoid discussing or advertising their own personal research or writings in WP articles. Often their friends, colleagues or other researchers in the area will add these details, if they merit inclusion in an encyclopedia. You should therefore not be surprised to receive criticism if you have created articles about your own research. There are issues of WP:COI, WP:OR and WP:OWN involved here. --Mathsci 11:30, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Please stop treating the Talk:Prime number page as a forum and writing your comments wherever you see fit. Please post your comments on a mathematics forum if you have nothing to discuss relevant to edits of the main article.

Talk:Ed Trice
Your comment on Talk:Ed Trice was inappropriate, upset Ed Trice's feelings, and contributed nothing to the Wikipedia. Please keep in mind people have feelings when posting on talk pages. Thank you. Just to clarify (talk) 17:01, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Fair division
You are right that differing values means the people can possible get more of what they want, but it doesn't make the problem of fair division easier. Fair division is hard because their values differ. Perhaps another go at it? Dmcq (talk) 12:31, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Dingo and square-kilometres in diameter
W związku z Twoim wpisem w dyskusji artykułu o dingo Talk:Dingo podpowiadam: dokument podwiązany jako Reference 14 w artykule Dingo podaje na stronie 81 (to jest 82. strona w numeracji pliku PDF, bo pierwsza jest nienumerowana strona tytułowa):
 * Results show urban dingoes to have comparably small home range sizes (mean 2.17km2 TAP or 4.14km2 MCP) and exhibit crepuscular activity patterns and flexible habitat use. (....) However, at all times, all urban dingoes were within 700m of residential homes, were often within 200m of homes, and were regularly in extremely close proximity to homes. One 27kg urban dingo even had a core area in a small patch of bushland at the bottom of popular primary school in the heart of a large town. (....)

Nie wiem co to jest TAP i MCP, wg niektórych znalezisk to drugie mogłoby być 'minimal convex polygon'. W takim razie pierwsze byłoby powierzchnią rzeczywistego terytorium, drugie - jego otoczki wypukłej. --CiaPan (talk) 10:45, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Blue Monday (date)
The original publicity stunt was an advert. The article is an article about an advert. It's had media coverage, it's notable, so we write about it. Wikipedia isn't saying that people should believe it's true, and we're certainly not saying people should buy their holidays from this or that place. If you think the article can be made clearer, then help, but please don't disrupt. Also, you might be able to make Blue_Monday clearer; Google translate implies that it's still reporting the thing as being fact. Pseudomonas(talk) 10:28, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Furthermore, look at Category:Advertising_campaigns for such articles as Atheist Bus Campaign, a notable campaign that is described without Wikipedia taking any view on the existence or otherwise of a God :) Pseudomonas(talk) 13:34, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Piotr Czerniawski
Edits like this are completely inappropriate and violate Wikipedia's policy on living people. Please read over WP:NPOV, as well as Verifiability. If you have qualms with the article, the best place to take it would be AFD. If you continue to attack the subject of the article, you will be blocked. Tiptoety talk 22:53, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited List of Polish people, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Violinist (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disambiguation link notification for September 6
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jan Jaworowski, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bloomington. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Jan Jaworowski
Can you add any references for the article (Jan Jaworowski)? Bibliographical references of some books written by him (or references to works based on his achievments), that will prove his works were important (Notability (people), Notability (academics))?

You know Wikipedia in general accepts only information which is verifiable (Verifiability), that is supported by some referenced, publicly available, reliable sources (Identifying reliable sources). One's personal knowledge is not suficient here (No original research). Please make some effort to fit Wikipedia's rules. I appreciate your input, but if it doesn't meet standards it may get deleted. --CiaPan (talk) 06:53, 7 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Ja Cię nie straszę, tylko doradzam. Nie mam ani możliwości, ani nawet chęci usuwania czegokolwiek (z wyjątkiem, z rzadka, oczywistych bzdur). Niemniej znam realia wikipedyjne (i Ty również je znasz!): hasła nie spełniające minimum wymogów formalnych są usuwane, lub cofane do brudnopisów. I choćbyś miał nie wiem ile racji, jeśli hasłu brak publicznych źródeł – wyleci. Dlatego warto się postarać.
 * A może poprosić o pomoc? Zobacz np. jak David Eppstein rozwinął Twoje hasło o Wiesławie Nizioł: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wies%C5%82awa_Nizio%C5%82&action=history – może miałby źródła i chęć, by poszerzyć też biogram J.Jaworowskiego? --CiaPan (talk) 10:09, 7 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Can you see what happened? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=679900738 “rzeczy pozostawione samym sobie zmieniają się – niemal zawsze – na gorsze” --CiaPan (talk) 17:52, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Čech homology
To tematy Tobie bliskie, więc zapewne będziesz wiedział: czy wyrażenie 'Čech homology' w pierwszym akapicie Shape theory (mathematics) powinno wiązać do hasła Čech cohomology? --CiaPan (talk) 08:31, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Borsuk's conjecture and Perkal's work
Hi. Wlod,

is from 3 January 2013 yours?

If so, could you, please, verify once again the journal/year/volume?

I intended to add an URL to an online version of the Perkal's paper, but couldn't find any. I did not even manage to find the title in Colloquium Mathematicum archives at IMPAN pages (https://www.impan.pl/..../colloquium-mathematicum/all).

Wszystkiego najlepszego. --CiaPan (talk) 10:40, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

P.S. Answer here, if you wish – I'm watching your talk page. :) You can also add  to your answer, if you want to notify me asap. CiaPan (talk)

Discretionary Sanctions Notice re: Trump-Ukraine scandal
Please note that I also reverted your edit to the lead in the article, as it went against the current consensus to clearly refer to the issue as a scandal. OhKayeSierra (talk) 08:15, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
