Your comments on Algebraic Topology

[edit]

Hi Dylan, I hope you're well. I'm not sure that I agree with your comments. Would you say that a knot was a topological object of study? Would you say that a polynomial was an algebraic object of study? If your answer to these two questions is "yes", then how would you describe the Alexander polynomial, the HOMFLY polynomial and the Jones polynomial? They are algebraic constructions used to study toplogical objects, ergo part of algebraic topology. ~~ Dr Dec (Talk) ~~ 13:56, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

American Buddhists dispute

[edit]

I'm having a dispute on the List of American Buddhists page, attempting to delete the many unsourced listings on the page. (I know some of the people personally, but that's not really relevant, since as I understand it, the burden would be on the editor User:Rojer Aurther to prove that people are Buddhist.) Dylan Thurston (talk) 18:01, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not quite sure why you used the {{help me}} template, as you haven't asked a question, but this is a topic for discussion at Talk:List of American Buddhists, discussion with the other editor in question, and (if you get into a "stalemate" with them) further input at WP:DRN. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 18:10, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
