[edit] Some hints
I would be grateful if you could try to integrate the edits you are making into the rest of the article. I am refering in particular to your addition to tridiagonal matrix. On that page, I removed the sentence "A tridiagonal matrix is a asymmetric bidiagonal matrix" because bidiagonal matrix is often used with a different meaning (a matrix with nonzero entries only on the diagonal and either the superdiagonal or the subdiagonal). Furthermore, I think that you should use less capitals. But most importantly, I am glad to see our coverage of numerical linear algebra expanded and I look forward to your future additions. Best wishes, Jitse Niesen 12:56, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Moving pages
Please don't move pages via cut-n-paste (as you did with Matrix representation), as this loses the history, which we need to keep for Wikipedia:Copyright reasons. It makes work for an admin (me, in this case) who has to come along and perform special hand-done magic to put the history back together. In future, please do moves with the "Move this page" link; that's what it's there for! If the button won't work (as it sometimes doesn't, e.g. in this case), please use WP:RM to request an admin's assistance with the move. Noel (talk) 03:55, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
PS: I don't usually check other User_talk: pages (so that I don't have to monitor a whole long list of User_Talk: pages - one for each person with whom I am having a "conversation"), so please leave any messages for me on my talk page (above); if you leave a message for me here I probably will not see it. I know not everyone uses this style (they would rather keep all the text of a thread in one place), but I simply can't monitor all the User_talk: pages I leave messages on. Thanks!
[edit] Elementary reflector (mathematics)
Hi there. I just wonder if you plan to do any kind of expansion on elementary reflector (mathematics). It was nice that you started it, but it is in a very sorry state. Even a couple of sentences would help. Thanks. Oleg Alexandrov 03:20, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Title/Boris Floricic
I noticed you created a subpage of the Title article, named Boris Floricic. I am not sure what the purpose is; was it created by accident? Wikipedia does already have a Boris Floricic article. --Hansnesse 07:09, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- Since I haven't heard anything and nothing seems to link there, I went ahead and moved the page to User:Mdupont/Boris Floricic, which is a subpage of your userpage. Thanks, --Hansnesse 08:00, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
