December 2018

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Wikipedia:Teahouse, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:08, 20 December 2018 (UTC)

Your Sandbox

Hi, Miroslav. Now I've looked at your sandbox, and I'm afraid that I don't think it is suitable for Wikipedia, or will ever be until some people unconnected with you writes a book, or several articles, about modeloids. Wikipedia articles have to be about notable subjects - and we have a special meaning for "notable": it's not famous, or important, or a number of other meanings the word has in ordinary use. It means that people unconnected with a subject have noted it, that is, written about it at some length, and been published in a reliable source, such as a book from a reputable publisher. When that happens, Wikipedia can have an article about the subject - but ideally it should not be written by you, as you have a conflict of interest. You are not forbidden to write it, but you are discouraged; and any such article should be based close to 100% on what those independent people have published on the subject, not on what you have published. Writing an article based wholly or mostly on your own published work is really an example of original research, which is not permitted in Wikipedia. In short, I think you are trying to use Wikipedia to tell the world about your invention. This is called promotion, and not permitted, whether the subject is a band, a company, a charity, or an idea, no matter how worthy. It's simply not the purpose of Wikipedia. Sorry. --ColinFine (talk) 21:23, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

Comments from another former model theorist.

Yes, Miroslav's work on modeloids is original research, and has been overlooked, in my opinion, by the mathematical community for quite a number of years. His work is in fact very relevant, but most mathematicians took another direction in his field of study. There is definitely a connection to many other areas of mathematics, and I'd like to discuss it with him in details, as I believe his work needs to be recast in another vocabulary to make it accessible to the rest of the world. So, yes, it's original research, and has been for quite some time... Which is a shame.

@Miroslav Benda: please contact me on this webpage, or on Terence Tao's blog (Google: "Benda Hrushovski" to get on the relevant webpage). There's a few things that needs to be explained to you about the meaning of your own work: Permutations do not arise out of nowhere. There's a reason why modeloids work. And it culturally cannot be understood by model theorists educated in a die-hard set-theoretic mindset. I wish to expand your mind a bit. Maybe we'll manage to make your work more than "original research". Best regards.
