Tagging SVG[edit]

Hi Tilman, your question about text rendering has been answered in the meantime. At this opportunity I saw that the tagging you are using for SVG is suboptimal.
Please, don't categorize into Valid SVG and into Created with Inkscape! Rather categorize into Valid SVG created with Inkscape.
Better will be into one of its subcategories as Valid SVG created with Inkscape:Diagrams.
Best might be to use e.g. Valid SVG created with Inkscape:Hasse diagrams. The tagging is easy as you can see at your Nested set V4; elements in Hasse diagram.svg.
Not any problem if you prefer other subcategories. Of course the tagging can occur in the description, but there is as well an own field for the tag (SVG rozwój).
If you have any other question about that, or when I can help you to categorize your fine work, please just tell me. sarang사랑 05:51, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Sarang, your templates are sophisticated, but really not easy to use. (I will think about writing a Python script that generates the right template parameters after selecting options from a menu.) You used |other fields={{Igen|+|s=hd}} and it generated the SVG development field in the table. But in File:8-cube matrix.svg I used |other fields={{Igen|T|s=:Diagrams}}, and the boxes are outside of the table now. Watchduck (quack) 08:40, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

To have them inside the table use the "+" parameter: |other fields={{Igen|T|+|s=d}}. That will work! sarang사랑 05:41, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

File:Venn diagram gr la ru.svg[edit]

Λ and Л can look the same in some special "monumental" styles, but in the great majority of ordinary text they are not the same. I would suggest that you not make any further radical changes to that file without, at a minimum, discussing the proposed changes first. AnonMoos (talk) 07:16, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

Category:Genji chapter symbols[edit]

User:Lipedia, User:Boolean_Algebra, User:Mate2Code, User:Watchduck, User:WatchDuck -- Why did you place Category:Genji chapter symbols in Category:Language-neutral diagrams, when not all images in that category are Language-neutral diagrams? -- AnonMoos (talk) 07:46, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

I took it from your file File:Genji chapter symbols groupings of 5 elements.svg, and thought that the symbols themselves are the "diagrams" in question. But a view at Category:Language-neutral diagrams shows me, that "diagrams" refers to the complete images. Thanks for the hint. Watchduck (quack) 11:07, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

Category: Chiral images with rotational symmetry[edit]

This is wrecking. I won’t look for another word for it, even knowing that this damage to the system of categories might be non-deliberate. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 17:39, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

File:Inkscape radial gradient test; red displayed as green.svg[edit]

The file you uploaded had inconsistent conflicting "stop-color" specifications. In the following code fragment, how is the SVG renderer supposed to know whether you want #0a0 or #bf0000? Doing either one really could not be called an error... AnonMoos (talk) 06:30, 19 November 2016 (UTC)

      <stop
         offset="0.48611075"
         stop-color="#0a0"
         id="stop14570-682"
         style="stop-color:#bf0000;stop-opacity:1" />
Thanks. I will be suspicious of the style attribute in SVG code generated by Inkscape. --Watchduck (quack) 11:57, 19 November 2016 (UTC)

Permutohedron[edit]

Hi Tilman. Two of your graphics that appear on the 'Permutohedron' page (and other places) appear to have errors.

In the file 'Symmetric group 4; permutohedron 3D; l-e factorial numbers.svg' the vertices are labeled correctly but the edge coloring is wrong. If the edge coloring indicates the coordinate transpositions where blue swaps (1 2), green swaps (2 3) and red swaps (3 4), then the edges of all 6 squares should alternate between red and blue and the 12 edges interconnecting the squares should all be green.

In the file 'Symmetric group 4; Cayley graph 1,2,6 (3D).svg', the edge coloring is correct but the vertices may be labeled wrong. I'm not sure since I don't understand the difference between a permutohedron and Cayley graph. The section on Cayley labeling is somewhat opaque; perhaps the Cayley labeling should be 'the inverse of the permutation given by its coordinates'. So coordinate (1,2,3,4) should be labeled (4,3,2,1)?

In other words, a fully correct image of an order 4 permutohedron can be generated by combining the vertices and edges from the first graphic with the edge coloring of the second. Tomldavis (talk) 01:10, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Please take a look at v:Inversion_(discrete_mathematics)#Weak_order_of_permutations, and see if it clarifies this indeed confusing topic for you. Dont forget to open the box with the Cayley graph. The permutohedron is not the Cayley graph, so of course the colors are not what you would expect in a Cayley graph. They just illustrate which digit of the vector below the permutation changes. Watchduck (quack) 01:21, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia discussion of syllogisms[edit]

Hello We were discussing your entry on Celaront and other four-step syllogisms that are represented as dubious three-steps in the narrative legend on the left-hand side of the page.

I hesitate to amend your entries. Would you like to do it?

Regards

Moving subdivision triangles category[edit]

Thank you for your work on the math categories. I've moved a few categories that you've created:

And created a new category, Category:Skew subdivision triangles, that I'll be filling shortly. Sorry if I didn't give you much notice, but those categories were fairly new, and the semicolon in the names was going to interfere with my upload tool. -Apocheir (talk) 23:06, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

If you move a category, please move also the files. (Currently I see images on this redirect page.) You can use Cat-a-lot to do that.
Semicolons in category names interfere with your upload tool?! Then you are using a horrible upload tool, and you should stop using it. That tool should use a pipe instead (like Commonist does).
You removed Category:Triangular tilings and Category:Yellow triangles. Do you think these images should not be in these categories, or do you mean to add them in a different way?
In short: Do what you think is right, but please finish what you start. Watchduck (quack) 23:48, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
