Revert

Hello, I have reverted your edit to Absolute convergence. I believe the part you have remove shows an important property of alternating series that does not converge absolutely. I believe, based on your edit summary, that you might have not completely understood the article. It is mathematically correct and it does not imply "ln(2) = ln(2)/2". What it implies is "changing order of an infinite series that converges conditionally will change the sum". I have made minor wording changes to make this more clear. If you have time, you can read that article again to see if it makes more sense. Thanks, Rockvee (talk) 01:29, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Reordering the terms of a series creates a different series.

No, I understood the article completely. A series is an ordered sum. If you change the order, then you have a new series. It is false to say that a series can converge to different values depending on the ordering. The ordering is a fundamental part of the series.

In particular, the series that you exhibit converges to ln(2). If you change the ordering, then you have a different series which may converge differently. But it is wrong to say that the "series converges differently depending on the ordering". If you "reorder" a series, then you have a different series from the one that you suggested. You're saying that this series converges to ln(2) and ln(2)/2. This suggests ln(2) = ln(2)/2 which is a very big problem.

All of this is correctly summed up on the absolute convergence page: http://en.wikipedia.org/Absolute_convergence#Rearrangements_and_unconditional_convergence

ps Thanks for getting back to me though.... I'm going to re-edit that stuff out of there...

Alternating Series

Yes, the original version with "series can converge to different values if ordered differently" is pretty bad. Your edit made it much better! I don't get notification unless you post on my talk page, so most people just keep posting on each others talk page. I have to say it is not good for keep conversation threaded...

Proposed deletion of Monetary Sovereignty

The article Monetary Sovereignty has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No references, very short article

While all contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —>εϻαdιν _{Ͼδητrιβμτιoης} 17:10, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

November 2011

Hello, and welcome! Although everyone is welcome to contribute, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Debt crisis with this edit, did not appear to be constructive, and has been reverted or removed. Thank you! Template:Z86 ~ Arjun 14:42, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Hacker

Hi. The list of real people at Hacker is supposed to be people *called* Hack or Hacker - it's not a list of general scientific investigators -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:54, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Sustainable Economics

Hello, Chetrasho, and thanks for your contributions to Misplaced Pages!

I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you worked on, Sustainable Economics, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

1. edit the page
2. remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
3. save the page

It helps to explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the Help Desk. Thanks again for contributing!Template:Z79 Sparthorse (talk) 13:42, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

What did you think about the deletion notice you received?

Hi Chetrasho,

In November you received a message about either "Nomination for deletion" or "Proposed deletion" of an article you created. I'd like to ask you a few quick questions:

1. Was the message helpful? Were the instructions clear and easy to follow?
2. If not, how do you think the message could be improved?
3. What do you think about the deletion process in general? Do you understand how to contest a deletion?

You can feel free to answer on my talk page or send me your response by email (mpinchukwikimedia.org). (I won't quote you or link your answers to your username if you don't feel comfortable with that.) Your feedback is incredibly useful for improving the content of deletion notifications, so please take a minute to think about and answer these questions. Thank you!

Re: Help on Phil Schneider

Re your message: You are welcome to write an article about him with the necessary sources. I only did a technical deletion of an orphaned talk page, not a deletion of the main article itself. I recommend that you write a draft article in your user page and then either ask the admin that protected the article, Stephen, to unprotect the article for you or ask for a deletion review. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:47, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Discussion on Monetary Sovereignty

Dear Chetrasho

Just a quick note to let you know a discussion is underway on the talk page of the article you created, Monetary Sovereignty. We are discussing whether or not monopolistic prerogative over money issuance and management is a charactestic of monetary sovereignty. If you have a valuable opinion to contribute it would be appreciated.

Cheers
