I just wanted you to know that we have the full text of the MER news breifings at this wikisource page. Sennheiser!

I added a stub for this comet and linked to it at List of comets. It's noteworthy because it's now broken up into 19 fragments, some photos are available. You can de-stubbify it if you have the time and inclination. Curps 19:27, 11 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Cool! I will check out, today. Awolf002 14:08, 12 Apr 2004 (UTC)
List of periodic comet numbers
See the new page List of periodic comet numbers for all numbered periodic comets. Curps 01:19, 12 Apr 2004 (UTC)

RST Article
Waiting for your continuing comments on the strawman I've been drafting. Doug 13:36, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Do you ever check this page? You asked for comments and an effort to rewrite the article and then you just ignore the response. I can see that you are plenty active elsewhere in the pedia so what's the deal? Doug 17:56, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
ndash instead of mdash for number or date ranges
Hi,
For a range of numbers or a range of dates, the usual typographical convention is to use an "ndash" instead of an "mdash" (it's a bit shorter). For instance, for "date of birth" – "date of death".

Also, you should add a "[[Category:Astronomers|Surname, Firstname]]" tag to pages that you create for astronomers.
Great work, by the way.

I wrote a small Perl script that extracts the obituary references from http://www.astro.uni-bonn.de/~pbrosche/persons/obit/index.html and converts them to NASA ADS links. I find it's easier to do that than to try to add the obits manually.

Charley radar image
Nice catch on that NEXRAD image of Hurricane Charley. I meant to grab one around that time, but forgot what I was doing and ended up getting one from an hour later when it was a bit less impressive. Did you download it "live" or is there somewhere to get them after the fact? -- Cyrius|✎ 03:48, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Maxwell-Boltzman distribution
- I always thought the M-B distribution function has as value the probability, not its density
This statement seems confused. Every probability distribution on the real line has a cumulative probability distribution function; some of them (the ones that are absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure) also have probability density functions. Obviously the cumulative probability distribution function has probabilities as its values, and obviously the probability density function does not. Since these graphs are of density functions, their values are not probabilities. But I need to ask you: the probability of what event? If you're talking about the cumulative probability distribution function, the event would be that of being less than or equal to the argument to the function. Is that what you had in mind? In a sense, the probability distribution does have probabilities as its values, but it cannot be graphed, since it assigns a probability to every Borel set of reals, so if you want a graph, you've got the density function and the c.d.f., and perhaps other things (specify which, if any, you meant).

Tampa Wikimeet Cancelled
Hi. You had listed yourself as interested but unable to attend this weekend's meetup. I just wanted to let you know that I cancelled it for lack of participation; it would have only been User:TheCustomOfLife and me. But we should all get together on an informal mailing list or something to plan some activity for the future. Jimbo Wales 12:37, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)
