Hello.

Please note that conventionally \cup is used in things like

$A\cup B,\qquad A_{1}\cup \cdots \cup A_{n}\,$

and \bigcup in things like

$\bigcup _{k=1}^{n}A_{k}.$

Disambiguation link notification for May 13

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Marine flooding surface, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hiatus (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:23, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

Initial context-setting

Please note this edit. I don't think the phrase "In measure theory" tells the lay reader that mathematics is what this is about. Michael Hardy (talk) 22:13, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Creating WP:DAB pages

Please read MOS:DAB before creating disambiguation pages such as LcscH. Specifically MOS:DABACRO and WP:DABABBREV: "Do not add articles to abbreviation or acronym disambiguation pages unless the target article includes the acronym or abbreviation". Currently, none of the linked articles mention this "LcscH" abbreviation at all. Also, see MOS:DABENTRY for how the entries should be listed (one blue link per entry).

LcscH

Hey, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I've moved the page LcscH to the draft space where it may be reviewed by experienced reviewers. I don't think a disambiguation is appropriate to connect the three related articles but it may be better to have its own article if it is notable enough. In the draft space, you or any other interested editors can work on it without the risk of deletion. When you think the article is ready to be published, submit it for review. Connecting three related articles that have no similarity in the title is not how disambiguation works. Regards.

Adjust links after

Pls remember to adjust links when changing/removing the target of a redirect. E.g. your target removal and someone else's adjustment. Thx, Rfassbind – talk 12:37, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

Setting context at the outset

You started an article with this:

A measurable acting group is a special group that acts on some space in a way that is compatible with structures of measure theory.

When the lay reader sees something about a "special group that acts", (s)he's probably thinking about performers who work in a theater, and then "on some space" could refer to the stage on which these performers appear before an audience. I changed it to this:

In mathematics, a measurable acting group is a special group that acts on some space in a way that is compatible with structures of measure theory.

In some articles, such a phrase is not needed because the article's title or something else about it makes it clear that mathematics is what it's about. Michael Hardy (talk) 18:20, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Hello Michael Hardy (talk · contribs). I generally agree with your position to write good and approachable introductions. However in this particular case i do disagree with your position, since both relevant sub-disciplines of math and the main article for math can be found before the end of the second sentence and your example appears not plausible to me. Please let this disagreement not prevent you from giving further feedback or changing/reverting my edits. Cheers, --NikelsenH (talk) 19:02, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

A Wikipedia page titled Schismatic temperament is about musical scales, but I reached the second sentence before I found out it's not about a psychiatric condition. (It's been edited since then). I'd rather know at the beginning. Michael Hardy (talk) 20:04, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

I wonder what you mean by "both of the relevant subdisciplines" and by saying they're found before the end of the second sentence. If you mean _links_, I think that's not enough, and the second sentence is far too late. And the lay reader doesn't know what measure theory is. Michael Hardy (talk) 20:23, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
