Mathematicians
This is one of the reasons that the term "priority" is better than "importance", which sounds much more judgmental. I don't have any sound way of determining priority for mathematician biographies, since I have only had to rate a handful of them at most. But my general opinion would be to look at the awards the person has received. So a Fields medalist is probably going to be a high-priority article, and someone who is well known in his or her area but not well-known among mathematicians in general would be low priority.
On the other hand, I try not to worry too much about making perfect assessments. The overall idea is that other people can correct the ratings, os that over time the settle into the correct values. — Carl (CBM · talk) 02:51, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Project Recognized Content & A-Class Articles
You had asked about adding support for A-Class articles in my bot. It was a popular request and I finally implemented it as I was able to allocate some time. I added a new content type parameter that allows you to specify a category for A-Class articles. See the template for how to use. If there are any questions or issues with the results, let me know. -- JLaTondre (talk) 00:20, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
ratemath and empty talk pages
The problem with ratemath and empty talk pages has been fixed, thanks to help from AzaToth. This was what caused it – you can see why I was confused about what was wrong with my code. — Carl (CBM · talk) 19:54, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
- Nice, thanks. Works fine now. --Robin (talk) 21:39, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
Additional; WoRC Request
I've received an additional request for the WoRC bot task. I'd like to get some additional input before implementing. If you wish, please comment at this discussion. -- JLaTondre (talk) 22:22, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Computational complexity of mathematical operations
re: recent revert. I overlooked the definition of M(n) because it's buried in a specific table, yet used throughout the article. Maybe it should be moved out of the table in question? -kj (talk) 18:38, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
