Since this sub-forum seldom sees activity, why not (similar to Na'vi of the Week) have MoTW? Would you like to have it? Vote above.

I think it's a good idea but mildly redundant.

As what would they do?

Maybe just have a Maths problem of the week and whoever solves it first gets to set the next one?
Only mostly AWOL.

Yayo

How is it redundant? I do like your idea though..

Similarly to NoTW, they would explain how they're involved in Math, what they have achieved etc. This is the reason why I've offered my poll choices..

Do you mean "star"-mathematicians or someone of this forum?

Yayo

I'm not sure I understand your question

I mean someone famous like Albert Einstein was or Ramanujan

Yayo

No. But that could be an idea.. We nominate someone on the forum and then associate them with a historical figure.

Okay. I'd like to commence as soon as possible but there are a few things that would be required.


  • A board dedicated to Mathematician of the Week to be placed in this board.
  • Somehow create banners (similar to that of the NotW ones)...

Can anyone offer any insight upon these requirements?

I think you've got to ask the Admins about that.

Second one: Should be possible, NotW have one, as well as dict-navi.com

I love idea that Tawtute said, to have a math problem or a puzzle every week, and first one who solve it gets a cookie and he post next weeks puzzle :D

Dreams die first because people give them up so easily...

Yayo

Well, maybe we could incorporate that in the idea because I have received the affirmative from Markì.

Hi Markì,
Could you please consider all that has been brought up in this thread?

So in short, we were wanting to create something similar to NotW but call it "Mathematician of the Week". I'm open to ideas and suggestions and please keep you feedback honest!
Thanks,
Yayo.

Seems like this would be of limited interest,  but let's give it a go.

So, is everyone ready?

Will there be love for the statisticians/econometricians of this board?  ;)

Yayo

I'm sure I can find room.  ;D

Haha, of course there is. The board is called "Mathematics and Statistics".
