I added a diambig page for Charles Stein. --Diogenes99 19:44, 25 July 2006 (UTC)Diogenes99[reply]

characterization

Does Stein's lemma really characterize the normal distribution? I had not heard that before, and it is not mentioned in the Stein's lemma article. Can you add something on that, if indeed it is true? Michael Hardy 22:11, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You started a new page for Half-normal but have not included any detail. I think it would be better to write about the half-Normal in the chi distribution page, then redirect Half-normal to that page. StoptheDatabaseState 00:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:CharlesStein in color.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 14:36, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
