Thanks Dysprosia 11:51, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Actually it is the other way around :) Changed RFaber->Rasmus Faber and wanted to mention that on the RFaber page.
Ok, nifty. You haven't made any edits under the username User:RFaber though. (Oh, you mean User:Rfaber :) Dysprosia 13:28, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Factorization

Strictly, factorization is definately in NP - given a factor, we can see that that factor factors n. (try saying that 5 times fast...)

That does not imply that it is in NP-Complete, which is the real issue. -- Pakaran 16:19, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Tip: the capitalization of the first letter of a wikilink doesn't matter, e.g., Mahatma Gandhi and mahatma Gandhi link to the same article. Cheers, Cyan 16:28, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Ah. My bad, then. -- Cyan 16:39, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Classical pantheism

Just so you know, Pantheism IS NOT synonymous with Cosmotheism, particularly not with the Cosmotheist denomination from which the anonymous editor who made the mess out of this page is from. They are related however, in broad areas of doctrine. I appreciate your assistance in repairing the article, and welcome you to ask any questions you may have in the talk. In case your interested, Cosmotheism could particularly use assistance ;) Jack 12:58, 13 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Actually, Classical pantheism is synonymous with Cosmotheism. You and many others, Jack Lynch, have just been confused by the false and deliberate "mis-association" of the "religion" of cosmotheism with the unpopular "politics" of White separatism, by the critics of the latter.-PV

CAM confusion

In response to your comments on talk:evidence-based medicine.

No problem! It is easy for YOU to be confused! Searching on PubMed with this text string:

cam [sb] nutrition

yields 14,292 hits. Searching on PubMed with this text string:

cam [sb] epidemiology

yields even more hits at 17,073.

Ergo, my point is perfectly valid and is not POV. -- Mr-Natural-Health 02:04, 17 Jan 2004 (UTC)

STOP moving my comments!

-- Mr-Natural-Health 01:26, 20 Jan 2004 (UTC)

You've got mail!

It is indisputable!

There is NO Edit War in Alternative medicine, nor is the content in dispute. You guys are playing dirty. And, of course, all of my editing is made in order to improve articles. -- Mr-Natural-Health 15:03, 21 Jan 2004 (UTC)

da.wikipedia.org

Hi Rasmus. If you have some extra time to spare, we can always use more contributors over at da.wikipedia.org; you could e.g. use your English language article about Jens Christian Skou to expand the rather short Danish one. If you're already contributing to the Danish Wikipedia, please disregard this message. :-) - Kåre Thor Olsen (Kaare) 15:42, 21 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Alpha-beta pruning

Thanks for reverting my anti-correction. Most of the time when an anon reverses the meaning of something without an edit comment it is vandalism. --mav 09:47, 10 Feb 2004 (UTC)

The Queen of Denmark

Her name is Þorhildur in Danish, but Thorhildur in English, because Þ is not a letter of the English alphabet. Just as the President of Russia is Владимир Путин in Russian but Vladimir Putin in English. If ð and Þ have been used at the Iceland Prime Ministers page that is wrong and I will change it.

Important pages

What would you consider important pages?

Massage

High, I notice massage has been getting an attack of the Mr Natural Healths. You might be interested to know about this process: MNH in arbitration.

If you would like to detail your edit war with Mr Natural Health please consider doing so in the style of the evidence there relating to World Health Organization or Lifestyle diseases.

Both of those articles are ones I put down the basis of evidence for despite having no real interest in the articles themselves - but I'm just determined that this relentless box placing must stop. However, it is tiring and boring to try and do every article so afflicted. So, I hope you'll help. If you can't, please let me know and perhaps I'll take a deep breath and... --bodnotbod 13:45, Jun 11, 2004 (UTC)

Where did the content go?

Rasmus. What happened to the Massage therapy item? It was a comprehensive article covering many different types of massage therapy, moving along very nicely to NPOV. You have moved it to a new page with a three-sentence stub content. Where is the informaton from the massage therapy page? . Moriori 21:00, Jun 11, 2004 (UTC)

Tks for your comment on my talk page.Aaaaargh. Should have guessed. No problem -- I think it's fine as it is. Moriori 22:41, Jun 11, 2004 (UTC)

Testing on the Main Page.

My test had to take place on the Main Page, it was a test of the main page. I found a glitch earlier that took to the “View Source” for the main page when I typed in http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?Title=Template:In_the_news&action=edit and I thought that Template:In the news might be protected now. Also, I was testing how long it took for the so-called “vandalism”—It was not vandalism—to be reverted. 10 minutes. Not bad. — El Chico! Talk 12:12, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Protecting pages

Thanks for that I'll make the necessary apologies theresa knott 13:01, 21 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Public key cryptography

Rasmus,

In (belatedly) following up on your query at public key, I decided to see who had caught me out. Having now noted your interests, it occurred to me that you might (or might not) want to participate in the revamping of the cryptography / cryptology / topics on cryptography / books on cryptography articles which, it seems, has begun. See Talk:Cryptography, Talk:Books on ..., and User:Arvindn/crypto for the current (chronicleistically confused) state of play.

The main players at the moment, as far as I'm aware, are myself, Imran, and Arvindn. JDForrester has put an oar in now and again as well. We are in NY (me), England (Imran, I think), India (Arvindn), and so a Dane would be appropriate additional distribution. We'd only need an Australian, an Antartician, a South American, and perhaps a Far East Asian to complete a continental (plus some subcontinents and large islands) sweep. Or something like that.

Cryptography is currently under consideration as a WP featured article (see the featured article candidates page for details), and there are clearly some differences with regard to the meta issues of cryptography and their coverage and emphasis in assorted crypto related articles. Being in the business (on the development side?) you are likely to have some ideas on these matters. If you'd like to throw them into the pot, well.... ww 15:25, 3 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Chelation therapy

Thanks for digging up that ACAM news release, Rasmus! Rosemary Amey 17:02, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The Humungous Image Tagging Project

Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Wikipedia:Danish wikipedians' notice board.

You have shown an interest in Denmark or Danish related topics in the past, so I invite you to have a look at Wikipedia:Danish wikipedians' notice board. It is a tool to help people interested in Denmark post articles they'd like to see, and to keep track of the existent coverage of Denmark. It can also serve as a place to address concerns regarding any aspect of Danish coverage on the english wikipedia. Hope you find it useful! In any case, could you please look at it and fill in any articles you know of that are not covered by the list? Thanks,

Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Ram-Man&action=edit&section=new)| talk)

Links Removed

Hello,

I would like to know why you deleted all the external links I added yesterday. Those links pointed to a variety of articles published in Bohème Magazine, which is a free, non profit and non commercial cultural webzine; all the links were relevant, and would have been of interest to people researching those topics.

I fail to see how this could be considered "spam," anymore than the other external links listed.

Calcutta -> Kolkata name change

Hi there. I noticed you voted in the Wikipedia:Naming policy poll to keep the Wikipedia policy of naming an article with the most familiar English name. You may not be aware that another attempt has begun to rename the Calcutta article to Kolkata, which is blatantly not the most common name of the city, whether it's official or not. If you want to vote on the issue you can do so at Talk:Calcutta. Cheers. -- Necrothesp 14:07, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Danish placenames

I was under the impression that the Å spellings had been officially preferred since 1948. As for Aalborg, you'll find something interesting here (http://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aalborg) (not my doing). I notice, though, that the Aa spelling is used in the text. Kelisi 16:09, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Karameh

Fixed the copyvio and the POV in one fell swoop. :-D -- BDAbramson talk 13:39, 2005 Jun 8 (UTC)
