Hello, I'm DVdm. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Internet censorship in the United States— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

RE: Undo <AKS is slow> What is your definition of "slow?"[edit]

I have generally heard the terms "slow" and "fast" in computer science jargon used to mean "polynomial time" and "not known to be polynomial time."

It is true, I suppose, that for a sufficiently large probability of error, very simple non-deterministic algorithms have fewer steps.

But as the numbers get large and the precision gets arbitrarily good, non-deterministic methods will take an infinite amount of time to match the finite time performance of a deterministic algorithm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1MathematicalGuy (talk • contribs) 02:18, 14 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A polynomial-time algorithm is a necessary condition for a fast algorithm, but not a sufficient one. Polynomial-time algorithms with large exponents, like AKS, are still too slow to be used much in practice. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 03:33, 14 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

About Zawyeh art gallery[edit]

Hi 50.248.234.77 and thank you for bringing this to admin attention.
Instead of outright deleting the article, I have WP:ROLLBACK-d the article to what would appear to me the version without the WP:COPYVIO-s, and then WP:REVDEL-d all the copyright infringements (which included your contributions, even though you weren't the person adding them).
I would appreciate your opinion on whether this was an adequate response. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. And also (I guess I'm obliged to say this), have you considered creating a username, etc?

Revert of my edit to Amy Coney Barrett Supreme Court nomination[edit]

Hi, I noticed you reverted my edit to Amy Coney Barrett Supreme Court nomination. Looking back, I agree that it is not "so-called", it is simply called that in general. In light of this, I think that most of my edit was reasonable, since the details of the court-packing plan are additional to the sentence and not the main focus, so do you think my edit would be "an improvement" if I remove the "so-called"? Thanks, ChromeGames923 (talk · contribs) 06:30, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, my only objection was to that specific phrase, which can be neutral, but can also be construed as casting doubt. I have no other objection to your prose edits. I would, however, prefer that changes to one article should be discussed on that one article's talk page. That's not an objection to this message, just a thought for the future. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 06:33, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate the quick response, I see that using "so-called" was not optimal word choice when referring to the common name, as I did not intend for it to be interpreted as casting doubt on its validity. And thank you for your suggestion to discuss changes on the article's talk page instead, I will certainly keep that in mind in the future. Best, ChromeGames923 (talk · contribs) 06:43, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

COI guidelines?[edit]

I added a Request for Article for my employer Cerence (NASDAQ: CRNC) since after nearly a year nobody picked up the spinoff and added an entry. Since I work there, I cannot add a new Cerence entry for obvious COI reasons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requested_articles/Business_and_economics/Companies/A-E#C

But -- can I add a one line REFERENCED^[1] blurb to the old parent company Nuance that we were spun off and divested to Cerence? I haven't had employment or a stake in Nuance for over a year. Would that still be COI?

Frazierjason (talk) 18:03, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know anything about this, sorry. If there's a reason you're contacting me specifically, you'll need to say what that reason is. In general I suggest that you abide by the COI guidelines, however. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 18:19, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for responding. I saw your reverts on the Nuance page with comments that you were removing COI edits, so I figured you would be well-versed in COI and might have some advice about COI guidelines on company articles. This was my reason for contacting you. I'll continue seeking advice elsewhere. Frazierjason (talk) 19:32, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, that. Please be specific when you can. Yes, the Nuance Communications article was and is terrible, don't emulate it. You are already doing well by declaring that you do have a COI, unlike the company employees and investors who keep trying to edit that page. If you want advice for a new editor, I suggest asking a question at Wikipedia:Teahouse, which is friendly to new and inexperienced editors. Otherwise, if you feel you have a tricky question that can't be answered there, you can post at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard, but I suggest starting at the Teahouse. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 20:27, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Done, thanks, and got a very useful reply. Wikipedia:Teahouse#How long after leaving a company until page edits no longer considered COI? Frazierjason (talk) 20:58, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad to see it. Thanks for being above board with your disclosure. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 21:04, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Lol1VNIO. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Anno Domini—because it did not appear constructive.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
