Julius König

Thank you for improving my article on Julius König. Perhaps you would like to have a look on the following articles too: Jules Richard, Actual infinity, Paradoxes of Set Theory.

In particular I have quoted some German literature there, which should be available and would be preferable in English. Regards, WM 15:27, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi WLior, I see you were on this site. Your correction is welcome. (By "cardinal" I meant an abbreviation for cardinal number as one sometimes says real instead of real number. But that might have been too much slang.) 217.94.220.246 07:53, 25 April 2007 (UTC) Regards, WM[reply]

Using "cardinal" is ok, but it's not great English. Rather than saying "the number of people in the US is larger than the number of people in Canada" normal usage is "the population of the US is larger than the population of Canada". In other words, it's more natural (and shorter) to talk about the "cardinality" of a set rather than of the "associated cardinal number". WLior 13:09, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You seem to have reverted my edit to the calendar issue in the introduction. I think it's better to say you can't peg Mulism holidays to the solar year than to the Gergorian calendar, since the issue is independent of the solar calendar you use (you can't peg them to the Persian calendar any more than the Gergorian one). The difference is between the lengths of the solar year and 12 lunar months, not between any two particular calendars. WLior (talk) 22:07, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

e does not redirect to solar calendar; it redirects to tropical year, which is not precisely the same thing. And, yes, it's true that you cannot peg the event to the Iranian calendar, but you can't peg it to a variety of other things either (say, for example, the Hebrew calendar). The point is that you can't peg it to the most commonly used calendar, the Gregorian calendar. Yes, there are other calendars, ones that aren't used as widely, but the comparison is mostly there help the average reader – who primarily knows the Gregorian calendar – understand the concept. -- tariqabjotu 05:09, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't make sense to say that the "Gregorian Calendar" is 11 days longer. The calendar lasts forever -- it's the year that's longer. I'll try something to that effect. WLior (talk) 05:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:01, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lisa Blatt (December 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Curb Safe Charmer was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Lisa Blatt and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Lisa Blatt, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

József Solymosi distinction

Hi WLior, I hadn't noticed that I removed the distinction from the top of József Solymosi, it was accidental, thanks for restoring! GanzKnusper (talk) 09:40, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem -- I guessed that's what happened. WLior (talk) 11:28, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
