If you don't see Greek symbols among the various squiggles, take a look at the research paper itself [3]. The say the symbols include "some Greek letters" on page3. They transcribed the symbols using short abbreviations for the letters which are on page 4 of the paper. It looks like del is Greek delta, gam is gamma, lam is lambda, there is pi of course. What confuses things is they used "nu" and "mu" for "n underlined" and "m underlined" rather than the Greek letters of those names. The equilateral triangle, base down could have been encoded as uppercase delta, but they didn't. They one they transcribed as "sqi" looks like uppercase gamma, but they didn't call it that. Their "iot" may be Greek iota, lower case. Regards. Edison (talk) 18:12, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
Countries of origin a third timeThank you for your note. No, there is no systematic policy against use of 'English'. It seems very appropriate to have 'English', 'Welsh' etc. in contexts where that categorisation seems the essential identifier, rather than Britain or British. My misgivings about them were purely re-active, as it looked as if it was becoming Wikipedia policy always to prefer the regional terms, 'English', 'Scottish' &c. rather than the national one. I wondered whether such a policy might be taken to have a political edge, out of keeping with an encyclopedia. It would also be inconsistent in that Wikipedia doesn't seem to adopt such a policy in the case of any other country - e.g. Germans are referred to as Germans rather than Hanoverians, Prussians, Bavarians &c.; Italians as Italians rather than Piedmontese, Marchese, Apulians &c. (even in cases where 'German' and 'Italian' might strictly speaking be regarded as anachronistic). Similarly terms such as Chinese, Indian, Russian are used rather than regional identities. (And naturally it is displeasing to Welshmen, Scots and Irish if movements into and out of Britain are habitually described as movements into and out of England.) Would it be appropriate to begin articles with the broad nationality term and allow the unfolding of the article to indicate to the reader any further categorisation? Of course if a person was known to be a passionate local nationalist, it will seem appropriate and courteous to use as a main descriptor such a term as Welsh, Cornish, Karelian, Basque, Catalan &c. &c. Category terms can be focussed legitimately in many different ways. So it may be courteous to allow in the Category terms at the end of articles - say - both 'Spanish politician' and 'Catalan politician', or 'British novelist' and 'Irish novelist', in order to allow searches from legitimately different starting-points. (Even though some editors would want to regard one term as a sub-term of the other.) Another possibility (which I see has happened in some articles) is to drop the habit of adding a nationality term at the beginning of every article. More often than not it is not relevant to the person's achievement. I think somebody questioned long ago whether there could be a German mathematics distinct from a French mathematics. Please accept my apologies if my misgivings about habitually defining British people as English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish &c. seemed unfounded.Swansnic (talk) 21:45, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

AN/IHello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. AndyTheGrump (talk) 21:54, 12 September 2012 (UTC) Morality in a multiverseI am taking the unusual step of starting a thread on my own talk page, because I saw user:Count_Iblis mention this problem on the ref desk talk page:
(The context was actually a discussion about a deleted ref desk question about the best method to commit suicide, so I don't really want to interrupt it with philosophical nonsense.) So I have a couple of things to say about that. First of all, the problem gets worse. Not only is it apparently irrelevant whether you kill people or not, since the multiverse as a whole remains unchanged, it's also irrelevant whether you do anything at all, good or bad. The awareness of living in a multiverse, on the face it, ought to undermine all motivation. What's more, the exception "except for which World you end up in" doesn't apply either; a multiverse is a deterministic thing, since it plots out all probabilities and is completely static, so all the many worlds in which you end up are predetermined. Except, of course, the prefix "pre-" doesn't really apply, since the multiverse exists outside of time; time is a function of the multiverse. I think this is a clue to the solution. "Change" doesn't have meaning in the context of the multiverse either. However, change does have a meaning from a human perspective. Though all our hopes, dreams, successes, failures, and ideas may be predetermined, they still exist, and the concept of change is among those ideas. It would be a mistake to see humans as mechanistic simply because one has an idea of a mechanism for time, within which everything functions. There's a related idea which I can't think of a better article for at the moment than WP:duck. If a simulated duck is identical in every way to a duck, then it is a duck. (This is the answer to people who say "what if life is just dream" - the answer is "so what if it is?", and "if that means nothing, it isn't true".) Well, the reality of change, and a sense of purpose, and morality, isn't diminished by a deterministic structure for time; and a non-deterministic structure is something I can't imagine, since it would entail randomness without even underlying probabilities. If a decision quacks like it matters, so to speak, then it actually does matter. Card Zero (talk) 13:43, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Primal Groudon’s Ancient Egyptian Refetence Desk Question.A while ago, I submitted a question to the reference desk about not being able to see characters in articles that use ancient Egyptian script. You asked if I could see every symbol in the Egyptian Hieroglyphics Unicode Block. I can. The characters I cannot see aren’t the hieroglyphics, but the characters used for transliteration.

If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add Indian sceptre@Card Zero Thanks for detailed insight at WP:RD/H. While looking for sources, during ongoing discourse many people incl. Wikipedians might not have taken into account that Tamil script word for Sengol is transliterated with multiple spellings in English and Sanskrit word for the sceptre is 'Danda' so for accessing more sources one may need to google with more words and spellings there of. I am working on User:Bookku/Indian sceptre in sandbox where I have collected more refs, some of which may interest you, but sandbox article is still under development. Thanks.

There's some kind of animal at the lower part of the image buried beneath the drawing on top. It looks like a reptile of some kind? I can see a head, eyes, and feet, but not much else. Any ideas? It reminds me of a turtle, but there's no shell. What's weird, is that the artist reused the paper from a previous drawing even though they apparently had enough money to use new paper. Part of the literature on the subject says they were wealthy, but the other part says they didn't have any money after their father died, so maybe they were trying to conserve the paper that they had by reusing it.
