A belated welcome--Jpatt 23:38, 9 July 2009 (EDT)

Thanks, and thanks for your note about math level. I'd say that, on the EMHA (elementary/middle/high-school/advanced) scale, you are an M-level reader. The articles I was asking about (curl and divergence) are probably H-level. Though they don't have templates; I will fix that.

I would say that evaluating the accuracy of math/science articles, even up to A-level, shouldn't be a problem---we have some A-level people around. Just from looking at recent contributions, they include me, MarkGall, LemonPeel, JacobB, ChuckK, and probably others.

If you see an E or M level article that you think isn't right, say so. On the article's talk page, or my talk page, or .... you know what to do. If you see an H-level article that you think goes too fast, also say so.

I will look at curl and divergence. I think the direction they are going, while technically correct, isn't what H-level is suposed to be doing. PatrickD 22:38, 16 July 2009 (EDT)

Page creation...

Do not re-create the pages of previously blocked users/persona's without Admin permission. --ṬK_/Admin^/Talk 15:16, 10 July 2009 (EDT)

OK. I figured out what you must be referring to. I can assure you I have absolutely no interest in re-creating deleted subpages of deleted user pages of banned users. I am putting everything in the mainspace, where it belongs.

Oh, and thanks for the better picture on the Boston article. That church is as awesome inside as it is outside. PatrickD 22:38, 16 July 2009 (EDT)

Thanks, no problem, it was an odd picture to represent Boston, if you find one better, just let me know. That template, I liked the concept if not the formula, BTW. ;-) --ṬK_/Admin^/Talk 22:24, 17 July 2009 (EDT)

Actually, Bostonians are somewhat proud of their juxtaposition of the very old and the very new. Trinity happens to be very close to the all-glass Hancock tower (too close, in fact, construction of Hancock threatened to damage Trinity.) If I get into Boston, which isn't very common, since I live some distance away, I'll see if I can take a picture that juxtaposes the two in a striking way.

Template: Are you saying you like the idea of the templates but not the chosen format, with an illustrative equation on the left and the text on the right? Or you like the format, but not that particular equation? I like the format, and I think the first 3 equations (E, M, and H) are fine, but I think the "A" equation is over the top. In any case, do you want me to come up with another "H" equation, preferably one that doesn't use primes, so I'll stop grousing about it? PatrickD 23:59, 17 July 2009 (EDT)

It was just that particular one.....is all. I'll ask Ed Poor to take a gander as well....but demonstrations are always better than text for most things, I think. --ṬK_/Admin^/Talk 04:13, 18 July 2009 (EDT)
