Importance of animation of polar or parametric graphs
On the contrary, it is essential to know, and everyone familiar with the concept of graphing mathematical expressions knows the importance of visualising how a polar or parametric graph is constructed from a starting point to an ending point. The links that I provided and substituted for the non-existent original external link is the only known polar and parametric graphing (online or off-line) tools that do the job, thereby improving the Wikipedia page. Obviously, it was the original external link which was un-necessary. It was not just un-necessary, but also it was damaging the page for redirecting the visitors to a non-excitant page. You will see the page can further be improved (in addition to this improvement). Without doubt, it was the non-existent original external link which should have been deleted by you or other contributors. MathZi (talk) 18:07, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
- So? That the previous link did not work is no reason to include another (in fact, I just removed yours. It is, probably like the old lnk, superfluous. Consider this a first warning, the link you add fails our inclusion standards, see WP:EL. --Dirk Beetstra T C 19:31, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
My above statement has TWO parts: the first part (referring to mathematical topics and their relevance to the content of the related Wikipedia page,) is directed to those who have mathematical knowledge; the second part (referring to invalid external link) should be understandable by everyone particularly by those who lack adequate mathematical knowledge. Clearly, the only reason for the inclusion was the tremendous relevance of the external links (see External linking) to the content of the page as was stated previously . That the invalid original link directed visitors to a web page that did not even exist only shows the extent of mismanagement of the related Wikipedia page before I corrected and added the pertinent external links. I strongly recommend that you refrain from deleting pertinent materials from the mathematics-related pages for you have demonstrated a lack of adequate knowledge about mathematical topics. Otherwise your actions would constitute sabotaging the related Wikipedia page. This is the first and last warning.MathZi (talk) 12:47, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- "is directed to those who have mathematical knowledge". My comment is directed to you:
This is your only warning; if you insert a spam link to Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. .- And refrain from assuming knowledge you don'thave. --Dirk Beetstra T C 12:59, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- @Beetstra:. They are not spam links. See what spam means. Only if you had sufficient mathematical knowledge you would know the links provide the most legitimate and the most relevant tools that are appreciated by people who got the know-how (mathematically capable). You had been warned, due to your lack of mathematical knowledge, not to tamper with added legitimate materials. Your tampering with the related page is now regarded as a deliberate act of sabotage.

I have started a discussion here: Wikipedia:External_links/Noticeboard#Butterfly_curve_.28transcendental.29. There is still no consensus to include those links, which means they stay out. Do not include them again until consensus has been achieved there. --Dirk Beetstra T C 06:20, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
