LaTex and Wikipedia[edit]

Why would someone write this:

x

,

y

\in

R_{i}

instead of this?:

x,y\in R_{i}

This is lunacy. Michael Hardy (talk) 18:56, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Editors benefit from advice and (especially gentle) corrections, even more than from pointers to massive style manuals. Please try to explain stylistic edits with kindness, particularly for those of us who have trouble detecting the difference between TeX and other styles. ("Lunacy" was a bit harsh, imho.) Thank you.

Tightening up[edit]

The article in its present state is quite diffuse and not well organized. I'm making an attempt at improvement, but it will need more work. I hope others can help. Zaslav (talk) 04:02, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the following that seems to belong in a coding theory article (preserved here in case of need):

For a review of distance concepts for Hamming codes, visit the University at Buffalo's CSE 545 page. In particular, please read Lectures 3, 4, and 10. Zaslav (talk) 04:02, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Use?[edit]

This article has been placed in Category:Experimental design and Category:Analysis of variance, and has "design of experiments" and "statistics" templates, but says absolutely nothing about how an "association scheme" is relevant to any of these topics. Melcombe (talk) 13:36, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try to add some text in next weeks. Bailey's textbook describes the links. Association schemes are good for balanced experiments of Anova type. Kiefer.Wolfowitz (talk) 18:05, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

P- and Q-polynomial Association Schemes[edit]

Please provide more (possibly another article) on polynomial association schemes, particularly the P- and Q-polynomial association schemes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.198.90.10 (talk) 02:33, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
