Coastal architecture? Flood zone architecture?

since this is doubled up, I'll remove it. if you want to check out the discussion go to: Talk:Architecture

Restored this thread to the Talk:Architecture page, to provide context for the architecture components

I see that you are an inexperienced editor. It is a judgement call whether something is off topic, or informative context. Fortunately, rules are more relaxed on the talk page than on the article page, so we don't need to make that judgement. --Silverback 23:36, 13 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

no problem. just thought that pollution/consumption wasn't exactly that important to architecture. I thought others might get bored, but if you're happy to make that call, I agree.--Naught101 01:52, 15 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Image:30x20px-Australian_aboriginal_flag_icon.png

Ref your new image at Image:30x20px-Australian_aboriginal_flag_icon.png. It is not within the fair use guidelines to use a copyrighted image or design on a template. Regards--A Y Arktos 11:55, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Since this image is unlikely to be used (the flag article will use the bigger one, of course), it should probably be deleted. Are you happy for me to have it deleted?

You can write a reply on my Talk page. Also, WELCOME to the 'pedia and all that. :) Here are some Australia links you might find useful:

User box TfD

Do you really want another red link on your user page? I don't understand why you're voting delete. WAvegetarian ^(talk) (email) ^(contribs) 03:01, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I voted delete as I feel that's what's appropriate. I don't particularly care about userboxes, and I don't really think they are all that appropriate to an encyclopedia. And I'd also thank you not to privately lobby people on their user pages, as that's exactly what the problem with userboxes entails. keep it to the Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/userbox templates concerning beliefs and convictions. cheers. --naught101 03:27, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lake Cowal Campaign

Hi - I am proposing that the Lake Cowal Campaign article be merged with Lake Cowal - the campaign would of course redirect there and if the content got too large then it could be broken out again into a separate article. As the creator of the campaign aricle you may wish to comment on the merger at Talk:Lake Cowal. Regards--A Y Arktos 23:52, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

good idea, replied on Talk:Lake Cowal. --naught101 23:55, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sustainable tourism

Thank you for addition of the sustainable travel section to Sustainable tourism. It is important for people to know just how their travel affects the environment. I am a big picture person, and not aware the specific facts. If you have any specific details on how tourism affects the environment (or culture or economy), the page could use some additions.

Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikify

Hi Naught101. I know that you've been involved in wikifying articles in the past, so I thought I'd draw your attention to this new project. We currently have a backlog of over 6500 articles, so any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated, even if it's only one or two articles! Alternatively, if you know anyone else who might like to help out, please tell them about it. Thanks :) -Ladybirdintheuk 09:49, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Ladybird, sorry, but I have very little time. I applaud you efforts, and will help out by wikifying articles that I find that need it when I can, but I can't commit to helping, sorry. good luck --naught101 03:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Farside (band)

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Farside (band), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Farside (band). You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

List of attacks on free speech has also been proposed for deletion. NickelShoe (Talk) 05:52, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of TiN Radio

TiN Radio, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that TiN Radio satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TiN Radio and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of TiN Radio during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 02:18, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:ArchimedesScreenShot.png

Thanks for uploading Image:ArchimedesScreenShot.png. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 07:08, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A study on how to cover scientific uncertainties/controversies

Hi. I would like to ask whether you would agree to participate in a short survey on how to cover scientific uncertainties/controversies in articles pertaining to global warming and climate change. If interested, please get in touch via my talkpage or email me Encyclopaedia21 (talk) 18:05, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of TiN Radio

The article TiN Radio has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced, non-wikified article that fails to assert notability. The url in the external links section is not registered. Doesn't appear to be an actual radio station.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. AussieLegend (talk) 04:35, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:ArchimedesScreenShot.png

A tag has been placed on File:ArchimedesScreenShot.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

distance correlation image

You recently added an image of correlation examples with distance correlation computed. It appears that you (or some other editor) has corrected the R code provided with it as suggested in my message on the talk page http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/File_talk:Correlation_examples2.svg. Appreciate the correction.

The image is interesting, but the prominent display there on Distance correlation probably suggests a direct comparison with Pearson correlation statistics is appropriate, which is not the case. The correlation and distance correlation really cannot be compared directly except in a few special cases such as when cor=1 or for the bivariate normal (in that case there is a deterministic relation of r² with dcor²). In general, however, it is difficult to interpret the degree of association by reading the value of the dcor statistic. Mathstat (talk) 05:21, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thanks for the heads up Mathstat. My stats knowledge is pretty limited, and I've only just come across distance correlation. I basically just made the image to help myself get my head around the concept, and I thought it might be useful on wikipedia. Sounds like it still might be, if someone changes the caption appropriately? Please do, if you can think of a way.

I didn't change the code at all, except to change cor to dcor() and to create another row with reduced spread in y, or in y and x, where it seemed appropriate. Maybe someone else did? --naught101 (talk) 12:21, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll take another look. You are right about the caption. I am not sure what else to write, but I'll try to come up with something later. I agree that the image is helpful (actually the bivariate case is the only one we can easily visualize, although dcor is good for arbitrary dimensions). It does appear that someone corrected the code at the line [ x = runif(n, -1, 1) ] for generating the first sample. This has little effect on the shape of the clouds but it is important so that the data is a random sample (x, y) and not a time series. I had a hard time following the history because apparently that is on Wikimedia, where I did not even have an account until yesterday or so. Anyway, thanks for adding the image.Mathstat (talk) 17:38, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

IPO

I have initiated an RfD discussion on the appropriate target of IPO. I have also made all the current links point directly to Initial Public Offering, so incoming links will not factor into the discussion. Cheers! bd2412 T 23:26, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
