removal of innuendo
|
| Nov 20, 2015 at 17:35 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | I agree that any factual assertions ought to be sourced, and this answer should either undergo a major edit to remove innuendo, or be deleted. I am going to delete the first sentence particularly as it seems to impute bad faith to the paper's author without any sort of documentation. Virtually the entirety of the post looks like expression of opinion and innuendo without any discussion of what might be wrong with the mathematics. | |
| Nov 20, 2015 at 16:38 | comment | added | Boris Bukh | I downvote, and flag this post for moderator's attention as it is a speculation about the papers done behind a veil of anonymity. If you have a particular problem with the paper, it is OK to mention it, but this kind of non-mathematical talk is not constructive. Saying rumours "Yet I know..." without sources is especially damaging. Are you the editor, are you the referee? If so, stand behind your decisions, and reveal your identity and specific concerns about the paper. Otherwise, how do you know? | |

| Nov 18, 2015 at 12:26 | comment | added | TOM | Oh yes, the author has recently posted the paper claiming to solve yet another whale-sized problem - the union closed conjecture. Either the man is a genius and the world of mathematics should celebrate him, or maybe more like a fermatist every month or so sending a new proof of some long standing conjecture. Anyhow, a conlusive diagnosis would be handy. | |
