math thing

I think there might be some typos? What is "Sen x dx" ? and what is "u"? And here: " cos x.sec x = 1" you might either want an asterisk for multiply, or nothing. Just copyediting the hard way (I don't want to fuck it up). human 02:56, 30 December 2007 (EST)

Yep, "Sen" is "Sin", language issues, and u refers to the integration by parts equation thing, though I'm not sure how to make that clear without having it look messy. NightFlare 03:13, 30 December 2007 (EST)

Ah yeah, right. You're integrating u dv, right? How about a footnote showing the formula to follow? Maybe I'll follow the WP link and try to put in in a simple way. human 16:48, 30 December 2007 (EST)

I guess that'll work. NightFlare 00:20, 31 December 2007 (EST)

Hope ya don't mind. It took me a while to remember the whole u/dv thing, so now it's in the footnote. With a link to the WP article. I still haven't headached out what the "error" is in that section, maybe one of these days. Nice work... human 03:22, 31 December 2007 (EST)

It boggled me as well when I tried to figure it out, eventually I had to ask some people. NightFlare 00:57, 1 January 2008 (EST)

Pascal's Wager

Apologies for nuking your edit. I was trying to rollback several steps but it didn't work. My mop & bucket skills are a bit rusty. However, the original is back up, sans edit history. Genghis ^Marauding 07:28, 5 January 2008 (EST)

No need for apologies, the original/current one is clearly better than my stub. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 07:33, 5 January 2008 (EST)

PS in adv.

Actually we should have moved PS in Adv to PS in adv - the title shouldn't have that capital letter in it. And mea culpa, 'cause I created it way back when. Maybe I fix one of these days... human 18:22, 20 January 2008 (EST)

Yeah, I was wondering about that, though I couldn't remember for sure which one was the correct way. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 18:37, 20 January 2008 (EST)

Thanks for fixing it! I made the capped version a redirect. And we pretty much use "wikipedia" style - no unnecessary capitals in titles. Which makes them easier to remember, and easier to use directly in text. human 09:51, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Vandalism RV

Thanks for cleaning up my user page. Genghis ^Marauding 17:28, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Thou art welcome. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 19:01, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Can I mess up your page? -- ^suolucnamuħ   19:02, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Not if you don't say the magic words. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 19:03, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Thanks

Thanks for taking care of that crap, it seems I pissed our latest wandal off somehow. Pinto's5150 ^Talk 19:28, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Welcome thou art. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 19:30, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Looks like you lot managed to do the cleanup before I got to it. Sorry for not being quicker. --Kels 19:32, 21 January 2008 (EST)

I feel like I missed out on some of the action. (I was busy fussing with my profiles on other wikis.) :( -- Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 19:45, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Neh problam. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 10:27, 25 February 2008 (EST)

Thanks

I don't know much about you, but thanks for trying to moderate. I was going to confront Susan again and I saw your last edit and decided against it. JazzMan 21:26, 24 February 2008 (EST)

Glad to see it (kind of) worked. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 10:28, 25 February 2008 (EST)

I'm glad to be here, thank you.--Elliott Rosewater 10:42, 27 February 2008 (EST)

Fillmore!

Why did you delete that article? Thor 23:00, 28 February 2008 (EST)

For good luck. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 23:03, 28 February 2008 (EST)

You're just jealous because the Fillmore! characters shown in that picture are so much hooter than anyone on RationalWiki. Thor 23:04, 28 February 2008 (EST)

Its true. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 23:06, 28 February 2008 (EST)

What article? Diff/deletion links demanded by those too curious for their own good!? human 00:08, 29 February 2008 (EST)

Fillmore! The article about the cartoon with the Prussian blue image that was here a few days ago.[1]. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 00:26, 29 February 2008 (EST)

Ah, ok, not that loser affirmative action loser cartoon loser Mallard Fillmore then? human 00:34, 29 February 2008 (EST)

Chickenhawk/NHG/

Hey, I don't mean to be mean, but the "NHG" subarticles are archives from another site, so we shouldn't change them. Feel free to go nuts on chickenhawk, though - and I'm sure it's fine to copy things from the NHG ones to our article if we want and improve them. human 23:14, 1 March 2008 (EST)

Lock 'em? Susan^{The Earth Moved} 23:21, 1 March 2008 (EST)

Nah, most of us are sysops ;) Watching is enough. I suppose I could put a little "please do not edit" template on them though. human 23:27, 1 March 2008 (EST)

If it was locked it'd give people cause to thik but why not just put a note @ the top? Susan^{The Earth Moved} 23:32, 1 March 2008 (EST) Must go to bed

That's what happens when I only read the section I'm interested about and ignore the rest. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 01:16, 2 March 2008 (EST)

Susan, that's what I said ;) Are you deep in your insomniac cups? Hehe! Nightflare, no big deal, I just wanted to do more than "revert", and explain here. human 01:20, 2 March 2008 (EST)

Thank you

It's just hard enough to get real work done without getting mired down in someone's pet meta-discussion... I mean, I like TK just fine, but some people might want to work.-- -PalMD ^{--yada yada} 20:25, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

Um. Uchiha^KATON! 20:44, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

I apologize if I have trampled on your sense of fairness. But that's it.-- -PalMD ^{--yada yada} 20:48, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

Alright, but... I would prudently suggest a greater display of transparency with regards to these matters (i.e. "I blocked him and for this long because...") Making history traceable on a wiki and all that, and not just "trust me, this was necessary" (not that I'd accuse you of such behaviour, but I ask on principle). Uchiha^KATON! 20:52, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

I agree with Uchiha on this one. From here on, we've actually got to start putting descriptive comments for blocks, and either make joke blocks very obviously different from real blocks or do away with them entirely. Plus, being accountable when you do make a block if someone asks "why did you make that block" would be good.

Additionally, can we stop just undoing each other's blocks willy-nilly? I know it's a violation of human rights to deny someone access to a wiki for a few minutes, but if you're going to undo a block, could you maybe tell the blocking sysop you're planning to and why, and give them a chance to state their case? Might add a little confidence overall. --Kels 21:56, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

I agree with Kels and Uchiha. We should clarify our blocking/unblocking actions from now on. -- Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 22:17, 25 March 2008 (EDT)
