The purpose of this thread is to help focus the attention of the community on posts that may require exceptional handling. This includes requests for reopen and undeletion votes. A request should be posted as an answer below.

Please do not use this thread to engage in debates on contentious matters (e.g. reasons for closure). That should be done in a separate linked thread. The goal is to keep this meta thread free of tension, so that everyone feels comfortable posting here. Please be polite, and respect the many different viewpoints in our diverse community.

To inform readers of the current (and past) states of the targeted post, please append tags such [REOPENED,RECLOSED] or [UNDELETED] at the start of the answer.

Beware that "short" requests such as "request reopening of <link>" may be automatically converted to comments by the SE software, so you may need to write more (e.g. why you think that the question should be reopened or undeleted).

  • $\begingroup$ For reopen requests that are run-of-the-mill (e.g. aren't meant to debate reasons for closure), do you think it would make sense to have a generic reopen-request thread, so that we don't end up with hundreds or thousands of questions on such. Then each request would simply be an answer in the reopen thread, and it being bumped would get the same exposure as a new question. Thoughts? Unless I hear any objections I will create such a thread. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @Willie It's probably useful to have some nontrivial history remain so that folks $\rm < 10K$ can gain some idea about what types of questions do get reopened, and what types don't. By quickly scanning the requests it might help to convey some idea of the community consensus on marginal topics. To keep the unopened requests at the top of the active sort, they could easily be bumped if there is still interest. $\endgroup$

It seems that I was too quick to suggest closing this question as an exact duplicate: Find the limit of $(\sqrt2-\root3\of2 )(\sqrt2 -\root4\of2 )...(\sqrt 2-\root{n}\of2 )$ without using the squeezing principle

As Thomas Andrews says in his comment this question asks explicitly about proofs not using squeezing theorem.

The other questions about the same limit do not have such proof. (Finding the limit of roots products $(\sqrt{2}-\sqrt[3]{2})(\sqrt{2}-\sqrt[4]{2})(\sqrt{2}-\sqrt[5]{2})\cdot \cdot \cdot (\sqrt{2}-\sqrt[n]{2})$, What is $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty}(\sqrt2-\sqrt[3]2)\cdots(\sqrt2-\sqrt[n]2)$?

This question about radian measures was recently marked as a duplicate of this question about $\pi$ being the same for all circles. The former question asks 2 concrete questions in its body, and I feel that at most one of them is covered by the latter question. I think it would be better if the question about $\pi$ were mentioned in a comment, rather than designated a duplicate.

I think the following question should be re-opened.

Content of the book "Group Theory Seminar Lectures:1960-1961"

The question is asking about the contents of a specific book. I cannot find anything on the internet about what is in this book, and it is not in my uni's library. I fail to see how this question can possible be "too broad". Presumably it contains some papers, so the titles of these papers would be a sufficient answer. A more vague answer, for example saying "finite $p$-groups" would also be clearly acceptable.

If you do not think that this question should be re-opened, then I would be interested to know how you would suggest the OP found out this information, without having to buy this book?

  • $\begingroup$ The question as posed is too broad, and lacks context.

I recently asked this question and was told it was a duplicate. However, the said "original" question did not satisfactorily answer my question. I was looking to solve the problem a specific way, the other answer took a different approach. Not only that, but my question turned out to be algebraic and calculus based; I did not have a question about the specific probability laws, but whether or not I was using them correctly because I thought I had a recurrence relation. I would like the question reopened so that I may give proper credit to the commenter who answered my question; which, I repeat, was not answered by the "original."

[Re-opened]

Please consider whether this question should be reopened.

I am not 100% sold on the question meeting our quality standards myself. But I disagree with the close reason, as IMHO the original version was already clear about what was being asked. The question asks about a specific detail of a planar motion. I took the liberty of adding a few animations hopefully making it clear to all what that motion looks like. The OP's notation is non-standard, but I explained that in a comment (just to make sure - IMO there is only one sensible interpretation). I am bit reluctant to edit the notation, as that might hurt OP's chances of understanding an eventual answer.

My interpretation is that the original close voter was taken aback by the odd notation, terse problem description, and the air of a HW problem. The others observed the same weaknesses, and then followed suit. If I misinterpreted the close-voters motives, then I apologize for my own trigger-happiness. All those weaknesses are undeniable, but I voted to reopen this, because IMO there is a well-defined answerable question in here. Checking out the OP's profile makes it probable that the OP is in self-study mode, so I am not worried about any cheating taking place here.

I do not intend to answer the question myself. Leaving that to the interested calculus-experts. After looking at the animations I would be very surprised, if my guess about the correct answer would not pop out :-)

Although the problem is upon analysis like the old chestnut of finding compound interest rate parameters, the User's application is different.

    $\begingroup$ Asaf, @user1729 I have added a few sentences which could be considered as adding context. (Per the recommendation to improve questions, which I want them to stay on the site.) Feel free to rollback, if you disagree with the changes. (Or, perhaps better option, feel free to improve questions further.) $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Martin I think your edit is above and beyond what I'd consider necessary. I've cast the third-and-final reopen vote. I would still like those comments to be removed though. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ (Just to be clear: I meant undelete, not reopen. What I say is not always what I mean. Which make writing papers...interesting...) $\endgroup$
