Welcome!

Hello, Skvery, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

You may also want to complete the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Again, welcome!--Biografer (talk) 20:12, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Appreciate the enthusiasm, but ...

[edit]

... please don't overuse the WP:Notifications/Thanks feature. It triggers a notice with each use, and one "thank" is enough for an entire series of related edits.  :-) I thought at first I'd triggered some kind of huge dispute or something.  — SMcCandlish ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ʌ<  11:31, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bolding of complex numbers

[edit]

Please stop bolding terms that represent complex numbers. Variables taking on complex quantities are still just numbers and are normally rendered as such (unbolded, italics) in mathematical expressions. SpinningSpark 21:43, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know whether italic vectors is more correct or not, but I do know that Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Mathematics uses upright and WP:STYLEVAR mandates against wholesale changes of style without first getting consensus in a discussion, so please stop doing this for now.

[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Mathematics/Archive 1, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. SpinningSpark 21:51, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Voting in the 2020 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 7 December 2020. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
