User talk:Gmac4247

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 19:10, 28 December 2020 (UTC) I see, what you mean. Sorry, uncleBubba.Gmac4247 (talk) 19:54, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

As far as I recall you have used the {{Reply to}} template about five times when talking to me here, at English Wikipedia. However, your way of using it must be wrong somehow, because it's ineffective – I haven't got any single notification from you.

Please read the template's documentation to see how it should be used to work properly. --CiaPan (talk) 14:23, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@CiaPan: Cool. Gmac4247 (talk) 17:11, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ebony Jackson: I'll keep in mind, what you wrote. Making the content understandable for everyone is a tough challenge for me, because I've received different feedbacks. Different people require different level of explanation. Some say, it's self evident, others say it's totally wrong. I've sent it to multiple journals, asking them to review it. Some of them allow content to be published only, if it's not been published elsewhere. It's catch 22. Gmac4247 (talk) 20:29, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Gmac4247. I am coming here from Talk:Area of a circle. Please do not edit old posts on a talk page. Doing so often changes the meaning of other editors' posts, thereby rendering the thread misleading or incomprehensible. If you want to amend what you've posted, then simply add a new post with whatever corrections are needed. Thank you.

Regarding the prior publishing issue, I think that you should not count these Wikipedia talk pages. Lots of people nowadays discuss math on the Internet before publishing it. Just go ahead, submit your research for peer review, get it published, and then we can figure out whether it should be in Wikipedia. :)

Meanwhile, Wikipedia talk pages are specifically about edits to Wikipedia articles. Until your work is published, there is nothing to discuss about it on Wikipedia. If you want to discuss your ideas on the Internet before publishing, consider the site Math Overflow.

Best wishes. Mgnbar (talk) 22:01, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Gmac4247. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that User:Gmac4247/Gmac4247/basic-geometry, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 23:01, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Gmac4247. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Gmac4247/basic-geometry".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:43, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: Ok. Gmac4247 (talk) 20:28, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Gmac4247. At Talk:Area of a circle, you have just edited some of your old posts. Please do not do that. Please just add new posts at the bottom.

It is especially important that you not edit posts after other editors have already responded to them. Doing so changes the context for those responses. It sometimes changes the meaning of those responses. It makes the conversation hard to read. Regards, Mgnbar (talk) 11:16, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I get it. I agree. But half of the content was deleted somehow. That changed the context alright. Instead of reverting, I just mended it, with keeping the context. Regards, Gmac4247 (talk) 09:20, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, those posts were not deleted. They were moved to archives, you can find them at Talk:Area of a circle/Archive 3. --CiaPan (talk) 12:23, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. Pinging Mgnbar.

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Cone for general discussion of this or other topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See the talk page guidelines for more information. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 16:20, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your concern, but most folks look up the encyclopedia to find helpful content. The WP guidelines are meant to ensure, that they get it. The volume of a cone is a fine example of the straight opposite of that. Please take some time and consider, how in the world could be the volume of a cone base*height/3? Look at its vertical cross section. It's an isosceles triangle. Look at its vertical cross section in a cylinder. It can be divided into 2 identical size triangles. Turn it around 180°, you get the cone in the cylinder. Equal cross section means equal volume. V=base*height/2. So thanks for reminding me, but I'm busy trying to improve the article. In my understanding, that is exactly what the talk page is for. Talking about the subject. Gmac4247 (talk) 16:38, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No. Wikipedia is not a platform for you to argue against the mainstream. I suggest you start your own website. MrOllie (talk) 16:59, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have two. Check them out:

The area of the base can be calculated as 3.2 radius².

The circle is cut into 4 quadrants, each placed with their origos on the vertices of a square. When the arcs of the quadrant circles intersect at the quarter of the centerline of the square, their combined area equals area of the square. The ratio between the radius of the circle and the side of the square can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem. The area of the circle equals 16 times the right triangle, with legs of a/4 and a/2. A=16/5r².

The volume of a cone = 1.6r²height .

Gmac4247 (talk) 12:12, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The volume of a tetrahedron can be calculated using the same methodology as the cone:

Volume=Area of base * height / 2 . (√(1/32)edge³)

If it was base*height/3, ((√2/12)edge³) the volume of the tetrahedron should fit more, than 8 times in a cube, with the same length of edge, which is obviously impossible.
