User talk:Femke/crime against significant digits

Nice - publish?

Hello @Femke,

Can you or I publish this good advice? It might help my argument at Talk:Turkey#Water Chidgk1 (talk) 09:06, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean move to Wikipedia space? User-space essays are not per se unpublished. I don't mind moving it to Wikipedia space, but the title is more suitable to a "user-space" essay. Busy for a while, only have phone access. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 19:01, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I guess it would be more visible and seem more authoritative in Wikipedia space. For some reason Turks seem particularly prone to this so perhaps I will be able to get a native speaker to translate it. I think the existing title is fine, but if you think not I suppose it could be changed to “Better to be accurate than precise” or “Are your digits really significant?” or “How tall are you to the nearest nanometre?”.

This is neither important nor urgent, so if it gets forgotten no worries. Hope you are having a good week. Chidgk1 (talk) 19:28, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
