Projects
I'll put up an info box for Mary Star of the Sea. Also, I intend to buy Earphoria, so I'll be able to put up a cover photo.
I've started working on mathematical topics I know, such as geometric group theory, amenability, and Thompson's group. I plan to add info about Bounded Robot Dances, the Følner sequence, tree diagrams for <math>F<math>, and more. Right now, I'm still trying to get my references together.
I find the list of mathematical proofs interesting. I'll be adding some entries to it when I finally add the topics listed above. Also, there's the list of mathematical topics and list of requested mathematical articles.
Maybe I could add something useful to line graph.
I should add the statement and a proof of the stable marriage theorem. Maybe I'll add the proof of the marriage theorem.
I'll take a picture of a pallet at work to put in that article.
Contributions
- I've been fixing the category system for mountains, moving pages to the most specific category, and adding sort keys.
- I started alternating knot and Nagata-Smirnov metrization theorem
- I replaced "the result quickly follows" as the last step in the proof of the Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem with four paragraphs of
mathematicsnonsense, oops.
- I corrected links to Paul Erdős and other pages with his name in them.
- I've been asking questions about Finno-Ugric languages on its talk page, which has helped instigate others to add a lot to the article. Since I'm totally ignorant of linguistics, I can point out bits that aren't explained sufficiently. I originally went to that page out of curiosity (I lived in Hungary for a few months, and heard that Hungarian wasn't related to any European languages other than Finnish), but stayed because they were having an edit war with a crank. It was quite amusing to watch.
- I updated the screen shot of the Nano text editor. Interestingly self-referential.
Other comments
Maybe eventually I'll write about
- Tonight, Tonight, a single by The Smashing Pumpkins that won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Video, Best Direction, Best Special Effects, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, and Breakthrough Video in 1996.
- 1979, another single, that won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Alternative Video in 1996.
- The End Is the Beginning Is the End, another song, which won the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance in 1998.
- Skindive, a band. They published the eponymous Skindive (2001).
- Madder Rose, a band. They published Swim (1993), Panic On (1994), The Love You Save (1995), Tragic Magic (1997), and Hello June Fool (1999)
- The Smalls, a band from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. They published To Each a Zone (1992), The Smalls (1993), Waste & Tragedy (1995), and My Dear Little Angle (1999)
- Stephen Landsburg, author of The Armchair Economist and the Everyday Economics column on Slate.
- Marilynne Robinson, author of Housekeeping
The Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums should be helpful for the music.
Shouldn't geographic pages have average elevation and other statistics?
Don't you think that "the universe" should be in lowercase? I read an article some time ago on why "the internet" should be, and it's a similar case.
Note to self: remember to look at Iditarod on December 4 for NPOV stuff.
Bombardier beetles are so cool: they're rocket propelled! Perhaps if I can get to a library I'll try to flesh out the article.
