Constructive geometry

I saw your request for an article on Constructive geometry but was a bit unclear on what exactly you had in mind. If you were thinking along the lines of the construction of various figures using the traditional methods of Euclidean Geometry then perhaps Compass and straightedge constructions has what you intended. If you're looking for more detail, I've found Eagles' Constructive Geometry of Plane Curves a useful reference. Such a detailed treatment would really be more appropriate for Wikibooks though. There is also Constructive solid geometry which is related to computer graphics; I'm not sure if a 2-dimensional version exists.--RDBury (talk) 12:53, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

My bad. I didn't read that far in to it. My apologies. SpigotMap 13:28, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Danish cinema, etc.

Hello Pavel. Glad to see you have joined WikiProject Denmark. Great to have an Estonian with us. I have several Estonian friends/colleagues who have worked wonders with building up cultural resources on the Web. Your interest in cinema is welcome too. I see you have already made a few edits on Cinema of Denmark. It's not a bad article but it could do with a lot more work, especially on finding good references and generally keeping it up to date. If you find time to take it a bit further, I think it would be well worth the effort. Furthermore, if you are interested in any of the other aspects of Danish culture (art, architecture, photography, music) we could also do with additional help. Good luck.

Etymology format

Hi.Which should be the format of an etymology that includes non-Latin characters? Have a look here; is the way I formatted the etymological text correct or incorrect? Is there a WP guideline about it? Eipnvn (talk) 09:38, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Leonardo and Vegetarianism

The reference by Corsali to Leonardo was what you might a "passing reference". It is, however, evidence that Leonardo was, in fact, generally accepted to be vegetarian.

But the precise nature and geographic location of the people about whom Corsali was talking has no relevance to an article on Leonardo's private life and doesn't need expanding. (We have no idea if Leonardo knew about these people. In the sentence they are being likened to him, not the other way around). Moreover, when it is necessary to expand something because clarity is required (eg within an article specifically about the Jains) then the extra info must not be added in the middle of a quotation. The moment you add something to a quotation, it is no longer the words of the person being quoted.

Meal ticket (idiom)

I believe an etymology section in the article Meal ticket (idiom) would be of help. Asinthior ^(talk) 16:10, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
