Hi, I've had too much other work and haven't had time to do any work on the article (but saw a few things that I needed to deal with, beyond the additions I already had in mind). But I have a bit more time and will get back to it now. You asked:
Well amplitude and phase are varied, but when talking about spectrum or transfer function, frequency is an independent variable (that is, it doesn't have a specific value but any value you choose to consider). So it would be more correct to say that the amplitude at any frequency is multiplied by the frequency response at that frequency (thus directly proportional to the input amplitude, as you say) and the phase varied by adding the phase of the transfer function at that frequency. I could try to write something in the article to that effect but will word it more simply. In fact I could easily make a diagram showing the spectra of the input, output and transfer function. But I haven't (yet) had any experience in uploading images (I just look for ones already present) but need to learn to do that sooner or later anyway.
On a similar subject, I would consider it useful to upload some audio files, as are present in some articles, with a short sample of music before and after particular filters. Again, I have no experience uploading those. Furthermore before making those (which won't be hard) I need to figure out what I can use that wouldn't pose a copyright concern. Would taking a 10 second clip from a pop song be considered "fair use?" Or do I need to find a musician to do an original performance and get a release statement? -- Interferometrist ( talk) 12:54, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
Actually I didn't find the audio clip in the Talk Box article but only in the article for the song itself (which didn't contain the talk box segment but I listened to the whole song elsewhere to refresh my memory!). And by the way, a talk box, come to think of it, IS an example of audio filtering (yes, a linear filter!) where the filter consists of the person's mouth cavity (like the jaw-harp). But anyway, if you don't think use of a song clip in this manner would be legal then it shouldn't be hard to get a musician to produce such a clip and then it could also be more directly suited to illustrate what the article is trying to say. I'd pass the sound through a few different filters (which I could implement on the computer) showing those filter's frequency responses (and specifying their parameters). I have written a quick draft of such a section (but without the figures that I would add after obtaining the music file) which I uploaded to my subpage: User:Interferometrist/AudioFilter. Finishing the audio and image files will take a bit of work but I'd probably have time later next week or so.
So I guess I should ask you: are you a musician? :-) Or at least in a position to play a few notes (perhaps on a piano, say) and sing something (sounding much better than I would!) that could be used?
I would say that it modifies the frequency content of the signal, as explained in what I wrote (tell me if it makes sense to you, and to the average reader).
Uh, no.... I don't know if you really want a mathematical explanation of terms. But an "independent variable" is something that you just specify as you please in order to find out what the dependent variable is at that point. For instance, if you are measuring altitude above sea level, your independent variables would be latitude and longitude, and at every specified location, you have a particular altitude (the dependent variable) which corresponds to that position. Most of those don't apply to Joe who is at point A, but setting the independent variable to point A will give you Joe's altitude. Thus setting the frequency to 440Hz will give you the amplitude of the middle A (perhaps zero, until someone hits that note on the piano) and the value of a filter's frequency response (dependent variable) AT 440Hz will tell you just how much that note will be boosted or attenuated when it is played through the system. Likewise for every other frequency that could be played (including the harmonics of those notes, so that the filter also changes their sound -- I would have said "tone"). Does that make sense? -- Interferometrist ( talk) 21:02, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

I fully intend to be impolite about the kind of fetishizing of wikietiquette and making a show of "assuming good faith" that has enabled racist editors to proliferate and manipulate the entire project.

I know that you think that your are protecting the integrity of the project, with actions like this and this, but the truth is you are only giving camouflage to the very contributor you are lambasting, who can now legitimately claim that he has faced personal attacks of equal seriousness to those he has dished out, which previously was a hyperbolic argument, and in so doing needlessly and significantly complicated the effort to restrain his problematic behaviour. These, frankly childish, histrionics are going to have no positive benefit whatsoever. Again, I know you believe you are making a principled stand against racism -- frankly your motive, as reflected by comments on this page and elsewhere, seems to be at least as much about your personal vendetta with Director, but let's assume for the moment that's not the case -- but all you are doing is complicating the mature, genuine, and tactical efforts of other editors that actually have real and practical benefits for curbing the inclusion of such material. Right now you are a liability to the effort to keep racist material off of Wikipedia, not the champion of that cause you, in your flayling and combative mindset, perceive yourself to be. Please remove or strike any personal attacks directed at Director, or the editors you feel are failing to bring him to task in a manner to your liking, from the AfD talk page or I will blank them myself as unambiguously disruptive and of no value to the project and be the "tattle-tale" who makes sure your behaviour goes up for review right next to Director and Producer. I certainly don't relish the thought of further complicating that debate and giving either of them cover for their incivility, but you have proven yourself to be an equally disruptive influence to this project (and much faster than either of them did, I might add) and we cannot turn a blind eye to this.

There is currently a discussion at
Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.
I really think you should consider your review a little better - particularly parts where you insinuate I am an antisemite. Then I think you need to review Obi-wan's edits because you've made a claim about him that cannot be substantiated; "but the bulk of his edits pertain to pet issues and causes of Men's Rights Activists". Then I think you should read WP:NPA where it says "Accusations about personal behavior that lack evidence. Serious accusations require serious evidence" and Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Manning_naming_dispute#Casting_aspersions, "An editor must not accuse another of misbehavior without evidence, especially when the accusations are repeated or severe. If accusations must be made, they should be raised, with evidence, on the user-talk page of the editor they concern or in the appropriate forums." Calling an editor a misogynist or antisemitic requires serious evidence. Furthermore, I do not get onboard popular platforms simply because they are popular. Wikipedia needs a lot less activism and more levelheads. Being passive is not at all a sign that someone doesn't support something, or that someone supports the opposite. I do not need to be actively engaged to support woman's rights and support closing the gender gap. Nor should any admin working in any topic area suggest they are one way or the other. Admins are expected to be passive and disinterested, per WP:INVOLVED: "This is because involved administrators may have, or may be seen as having, a conflict of interest in disputes they have been a party to or have strong feelings about." You really misunderstand the role of administrators if you think activism is an appropriate activity for an administrator.--v/r - T P 03:51, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I've had too much other work and haven't had time to do any work on the article (but saw a few things that I needed to deal with, beyond the additions I already had in mind). But I have a bit more time and will get back to it now. You asked:
Well amplitude and phase are varied, but when talking about spectrum or transfer function, frequency is an independent variable (that is, it doesn't have a specific value but any value you choose to consider). So it would be more correct to say that the amplitude at any frequency is multiplied by the frequency response at that frequency (thus directly proportional to the input amplitude, as you say) and the phase varied by adding the phase of the transfer function at that frequency. I could try to write something in the article to that effect but will word it more simply. In fact I could easily make a diagram showing the spectra of the input, output and transfer function. But I haven't (yet) had any experience in uploading images (I just look for ones already present) but need to learn to do that sooner or later anyway.

Actually I didn't find the audio clip in the Talk Box article but only in the article for the song itself (which didn't contain the talk box segment but I listened to the whole song elsewhere to refresh my memory!). And by the way, a talk box, come to think of it, IS an example of audio filtering (yes, a linear filter!) where the filter consists of the person's mouth cavity (like the jaw-harp). But anyway, if you don't think use of a song clip in this manner would be legal then it shouldn't be hard to get a musician to produce such a clip and then it could also be more directly suited to illustrate what the article is trying to say. I'd pass the sound through a few different filters (which I could implement on the computer) showing those filter's frequency responses (and specifying their parameters). I have written a quick draft of such a section (but without the figures that I would add after obtaining the music file) which I uploaded to my subpage: User:Interferometrist/AudioFilter. Finishing the audio and image files will take a bit of work but I'd probably have time later next week or so.
So I guess I should ask you: are you a musician? :-) Or at least in a position to play a few notes (perhaps on a piano, say) and sing something (sounding much better than I would!) that could be used?
I would say that it modifies the frequency content of the signal, as explained in what I wrote (tell me if it makes sense to you, and to the average reader).
Uh, no.... I don't know if you really want a mathematical explanation of terms. But an "independent variable" is something that you just specify as you please in order to find out what the dependent variable is at that point. For instance, if you are measuring altitude above sea level, your independent variables would be latitude and longitude, and at every specified location, you have a particular altitude (the dependent variable) which corresponds to that position. Most of those don't apply to Joe who is at point A, but setting the independent variable to point A will give you Joe's altitude. Thus setting the frequency to 440Hz will give you the amplitude of the middle A (perhaps zero, until someone hits that note on the piano) and the value of a filter's frequency response (dependent variable) AT 440Hz will tell you just how much that note will be boosted or attenuated when it is played through the system.

A Harmonizer is a 19" rack mounted effects unit manufactured by Eventide Clockworks Inc., NY, USA in the early 1970's.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Middle-earth wars and battles, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Isildur's Bane ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Replying to your comment on my talk page. I am not an administrator. I closed that deletion discussion AFTER an administrator had deleted the article, because he neglected to close the AfD after doing so. I have looked at the articles you mentioned. I don't see either as qualifying for speedy deletion as advertising, but they possibly could qualify for regular deletion under notability. I would just let the normal deletion process run its course. Safiel ( talk) 20:56, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you make
personal attacks on other people again, as you did at
Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2014 March 14, you may be
blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Besides your comment being a pretty blatant personal attack, it totally does not pertain: deletion review is to discuss whether a particular discussion was closed properly, not whether some article strikes you as wrong.

14:43, 16 March 2014 (UTC)Drmies, like the offending Wikipedia article Jew Watch aims not to investigate communism as a movement which has historically appealed to impoverished and oppressed people, which early 20th century Jews admittedly often were, but to give the misleading impression that it has a specifically Jewish character or somehow appeals more to Jews than other communities of humans. http://www.jewwatch.com/jew-communists.html

Request reason:
I'm actually not going to ask to be unblocked but to have my account closed permenantly. The fact that PRODUCER/DIREKTOR succeeded in having me blocked means he's won. You have an Anti-Semite you can't call an Anti-Semite and a sockpuppet you can't call a sockpuppet. It was very important to me to not allow anti-Semitism to go unchallenged, but I see now that you have to be nice to it and afford it the courtesy you would an honest well-intentioned person. And believe me,it will constantly remind you of this and report you the second you don't. Atlantictire ( talk) 01:22, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
Decline reason:
No action will be taken to "close" your account. You can simply stop coming to Wikipedia to work whenever you want, and no one here will force you to come back. Jayron 32 03:07, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Your account can't be closed permanently. Some administrators will indefinitely block a user in response to their request. You can, of course, just stop editing here. You might also look at WP:VANISH, but given that you would be leaving not "in good standing", a request to vanish would probably be denied. There may be other options I'm either unaware of or are not coming to me at the moment. Other administrators who pass through here may have views on the issue.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 01:30, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

I fully intend to be impolite about the kind of fetishizing of wikietiquette and making a show of "assuming good faith" that has enabled racist editors to proliferate and manipulate the entire project.
Given the kind of judgment admins have been exercising of late, I fully expect to be sanctioned for it. Consider this an experiment. How long until yet another racist tattletale succeeds in having me blocked? Go!-- Atlantictire ( talk) 21:08, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
I know that you think that your are protecting the integrity of the project, with actions like this and this, but the truth is you are only giving camouflage to the very contributor you are lambasting, who can now legitimately claim that he has faced personal attacks of equal seriousness to those he has dished out, which previously was a hyperbolic argument, and in so doing needlessly and significantly complicated the effort to restrain his problematic behaviour. These, frankly childish, histrionics are going to have no positive benefit whatsoever. Again, I know you believe you are making a principled stand against racism -- frankly your motive, as reflected by comments on this page and elsewhere, seems to be at least as much about your personal vendetta with Director, but let's assume for the moment that's not the case -- but all you are doing is complicating the mature, genuine, and tactical efforts of other editors that actually have real and practical benefits for curbing the inclusion of such material. Right now you are a liability to the effort to keep racist material off of Wikipedia, not the champion of that cause you, in your flayling and combative mindset, perceive yourself to be. Please remove or strike any personal attacks directed at Director, or the editors you feel are failing to bring him to task in a manner to your liking, from the AfD talk page or I will blank them myself as unambiguously disruptive and of no value to the project and be the "tattle-tale" who makes sure your behaviour goes up for review right next to Director and Producer. I certainly don't relish the thought of further complicating that debate and giving either of them cover for their incivility, but you have proven yourself to be an equally disruptive influence to this project (and much faster than either of them did, I might add) and we cannot turn a blind eye to this.

Atlantictire, perhaps I'm being paranoid.

Guys my intent is to say that the only reason this article is headed for deletion is b/c someone found concrete proof that it was plagiarized from an Antisemitic thingamijiggy. There's a lot of people who should feel pretty terrible. Not just Director and his merry band of allies. All of you have lost your minds. :-)-- Atlantictire ( talk) 22:40, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
Ok, I'm gonna assume good faith here and say you missed where I explained that I used that image because it would be every bit as horrible for an editor to accuse someone of bad faith for calling that racist as it was for editors to defend the hateful Jews and Communism article. Do you disagree?- Atlantictire ( talk) 02:53, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
I've put words in your mouth, or rather put conjectural motives behind your words, in the current discussion at WP:ANI. I may well have erred in this; your intention might not be the one I have ascribed to you. I don't know that you have an intention at all. But I do think there is method here -- not to say that you are not very angry indeed -- and that Wikipedia admins should pause and think before acting reflexively. If I am mistaken, I suggest that you simply add a short note to the effect that User:MarkBernstein is entitled to his opinion, but doesn't speak for me. I've tried to make that clear myself.

Hmm. I wonder if anyone else in the world agrees with your interpretation of Jones' work as fringe. Let's see: Adam Jones: [5], with an h-index of 16 (whereas the average in the social sciences (according to wikipedia) is from 2.6-8), so not bad for a professor, with a net total of 1105 citations to his work. His paper on gendercide and genocide has been cited by 79 other publications, and he was apparently published as one of the "50 key thinkers about genocide". Why is he fringe? You haven't provided any evidence yet, nor have you provided evidence that any of the literature I provided links to was problematic or fringe. @ TParis: so he knows I resopnded here instead of at ANI.-- Obi-Wan Kenobi ( talk) 22:25, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
Hi, Just to let you know, I agree with your recent assessment on ANI board regarding WP:PUSH, WP:CHERRYPICK, WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS, WP:NPOV and WP:VERIFY. I’ve seen all of that myself. I noticed a lot of the oppose people were acting like it was simply ridiculous, while at same time admitting they really hadn’t looked into what he’s been doing lately in topic area of violence against men/violence against women, so in that sense, I think a lot of the criticism of your proposed topic ban was unjustified. My only objection was proposal seemed slightly too stern, but I do agree he's getting there. -- BoboMeowCat ( talk) 13:28, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at
Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.
I really think you should consider your review a little better - particularly parts where you insinuate I am an antisemite. Then I think you need to review Obi-wan's edits because you've made a claim about him that cannot be substantiated; "but the bulk of his edits pertain to pet issues and causes of Men's Rights Activists". Then I think you should read WP:NPA where it says "Accusations about personal behavior that lack evidence. Serious accusations require serious evidence" and Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Manning_naming_dispute#Casting_aspersions, "An editor must not accuse another of misbehavior without evidence, especially when the accusations are repeated or severe. If accusations must be made, they should be raised, with evidence, on the user-talk page of the editor they concern or in the appropriate forums." Calling an editor a misogynist or antisemitic requires serious evidence. Furthermore, I do not get onboard popular platforms simply because they are popular. Wikipedia needs a lot less activism and more levelheads. Being passive is not at all a sign that someone doesn't support something, or that someone supports the opposite. I do not need to be actively engaged to support woman's rights and support closing the gender gap. Nor should any admin working in any topic area suggest they are one way or the other. Admins are expected to be passive and disinterested, per WP:INVOLVED: "This is because involved administrators may have, or may be seen as having, a conflict of interest in disputes they have been a party to or have strong feelings about." You really misunderstand the role of administrators if you think activism is an appropriate activity for an administrator.--v/r - T P 03:51, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
