Wow! Guess I better go and find all of my old talk pages...

Manning, I was about to rip out a whole bunch of chatty stuff in Lebesgue integration when I saw your pertinent critique in that article's "discussion" page. I've just been wrecking havoc in the integration pages, but I'm concerned the articles might be too concise for a non-specialist. Please take a gander at integral, numerical integration and also Riemann integral. The entire Introduction section in Lebesgue integration is what I was about to rip out. However, does that section help make the article pertinent to a non-specialist?

You can leave notes in the discussion section of the relevant pages. -Loisel

Hi Manning -- Just wanted to let you know you've been much missed! J Hofmann Kemp

Ahh Jules, you sweet talker you! It's good to be back, even if it is only for 10 days :( - MB

Thanks for the welcome... welcome back yourself! I'll have to think about the list - I already have 18 mailing lists feeding into my mailbox every day, though if Yahoo keeps on being beastly that number will be diminishing considerably... anyway, I bet you're glad to be back in Australia :) KJ

I see you succumbed and joined the list... hehe, I knew you would. Face it, you're an addict like the rest of us :) Am I glad to be back in God's Own Earth...? Don't get me started. Still we need to be sent overseas to third world places such as India, Kenya, Bangladesh,England and the United States every now and then to be reminded how privileged we are to live in Paradise. - Cheers MB
You're so glad to be back here that you're leaving again! Tell me - did the doctors ever say you swallowed anything unusual when you were a child? A boomerang perhaps?! lol Scuse me - it's just the sleep-deprivation talking. Must not write. Must go... to... bed... no - write more... no - bed... no - wri... zzzzzzzzz Seriously, I'm very glad that my friend Michael showed me this url - I wonder if he's around still? Not under his real name if he is. - KJ

Hi Manning - I've just been looking at an article on Meta - 'The problem of defining sanity', originally by Bruce Harrington. It seemed to me (and at least one other user) that this was a reasonably valid and NPOV encyclopedia article - maybe not perfect but a good start. Admittedly I'm no expert on the subject to judge. I noticed it was you that put it in Meta - do you have any particular objections to it being in the encyclopedia? Enchanter

Enchanter - Believe it or not I have never even read the article. Before the meta site existed we use to hae a page called "Wikipedia Commentary" which was a place where people could put their essays, and it was specifically free of NPOV restrictions. Hence Bruce himself put the article there. When meta was created I was simply tasked with relocating all the material from the commentary section to the meta domain. - cheers MB


Found this over in stub articles, it's an orphan too: ManningBartlett/revision 93. Can I delete it? It looks like some kind of old leftover from an experiment long past. Bryan Derksen, Sunday, May 26, 2002

Thanks for fixing the Georgetown problem. -- Zoe

Hey Manning, great to see you back in action! A few of us sysops have been overwhelmed as being the only fully active members of the militia for a couple of months now. I hope you don't think I've been trying to take things over here -- its just in my nature to fill leadership voids until someone more qualified shows up. I really do want to get back to writing and editing more articles -- there is only so much joy in spending most of my time here focused on doing sysop duties such as organization, reviewing pages in the deletion queue, and welcoming newcomers. I have a feeling you will be a very strong (re)addition to the militia -- don't expect me to agree with you on everything though. :) --maveric149

Hey mate - I'll reply offline and you can fill me in. You've done very good work though :) And when have we ever "all" agreed on anything, ever? - MMGB

Important note for all sysops: There is a bug in the administrative move feature that truncates the moved history and changes the edit times. Please do not use this feature until this bug is fixed. More information can be found in the talk of Brion VIBBER and maveric149. Thank you. --maveric149

Hi Manning. I took the liberty of moving your numerous old subpages (ManningBartlett/pages) to the user namespace, as I'm on a bit of a cleaning kick at the moment. None of the links are broken. Just wanted to let you know that I was messing around with your stuff. :) --Stephen Gilbert

Are you back now, or just visiting? It would be great to see more of you in Recent Changes. --mav

  • Is that your polite way of saying "Manning, you've been a slack bastard!" ? :-) I'll do my best - been really busy in my annoying real life.
