dragging this out on the talk page, but you're shooting yourself in the foot by doing so because you're damaging the next RfC's chances; if the subject truly is notable at a later point it might very well get overlooked because it will just seem like a continuation of the same pointless discussion that you've been carrying on non-stop. Don't take my word on it, look at other discussions on Knowledge (XXG); the more that time passes between RfCs or topics being brought up the more likely it is that editors will take a fresh look at the subject and discuss it on the merits of the subject, but when it's been a short time or when it's been continuously discussed editors are not inclined to do so. I'm not asking you to stop but I wanted to point that out in cast it had not occurred to you. You're not helping the subject became a standalone article by doing so, you're in fact doing quite the opposite. Other than my birthday being on "Tau day" I have no real opinion or connection to the subject in any way and if reliable sources can demonstrate notability I will support it being an article. If an RfC determines that the subject does not warrant a separate article, I want it to be because it's not notable, not because editors are tired of discussion being dragged out. I'm not going to say anything else about this but believe me, you're not helping your case by not letting it rest for a while. -
1722:(some recent enthusiasts feel this was the wrong choice and wish to re-standardize on something else). Unless/until the tauists succeed, we are not going to rewrite any of our actual mathematical articles using this alternative notation, and we are not going to have duplicate warring articles for the two choices of notation, because that would be an inappropriate content fork. So the only remaining possibility is to write about the activism. And if the activists are using things like "the 15th-century Persian mathematicians used the number 2π rather than the number π (with whatever notation) and therefore we should standardize our own notation around that number." as their arguments, then our hypothetical article about the activism should report on those arguments, but it should also report on their fallaciousness — when choosing whether to re-standardize, why should we care about historical trivia? — 1138:" as the period of the sine and cosine and number of radians in a circle does not because of "We've discussed this formally twice recently" and the need to marginalize tau by "creation of a wiki article on the "τ movement", but ... not be allowed to reproduce a list of mathematical formulae with pi replaced by tau." Or, in other words, threats, lack of following guidelines, and no good reason at all. Is this correct? Or is it that you really don't want to answer "What if an article is wrote about '2pi (2π 6.283185307179)' with the section that has tau in the "In popular culture" section? Why, other than spite, would there *not* be an article?" -- 560:
uninteresting. It is also undeniable that there is a group of people who do consider the subject interesting and important, there are plenty of sources to verify that fact. I think these people are crazy but I can, at least understand where they are coming from. There seems to be another bunch of people who object strongly to the existence on WP of any kind of article on this subject. I have no idea why this should be and why they should have such strong feelings but it certainly has nothing to do with notability.
276: 1612:
do see enough for the "movement". And editors are making their sensitivities known about how that distinction gets reflected in the title. We're not on the verge of agreeing to have an article right here and now. We can't. Like I said before, a formal RFC will have to be called. Impromptu discussions like this can make sure it's not called prematurely, and that it's worded closest to something that can get agreement. --

other ways couldn't be just as normal and commonplace. (2) Some people find it interesting when an old idea is "rediscovered". Lots of magazine articles about modern electric cars take time out to describe how some of the very earliest cars were electric. Not because the writers think we can learn something from that old technology, but just because some readers find the "rediscovery" aspect interesting. --

well-written Tazerdadog's article was. Until we get agreement that a topic, whether tau the number or the tau movement, is notable enough for an article based on available sources, it's a waste of time to start writing an article. So there's no advantage to moving to someone's userspace. And it has the clear disadvantage of scattering the history of this issue among yet more places on Knowledge (XXG). --

It would be of particular interest to scrutinize references prior to 1706, i.e. when the symbol π was first used to represent the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, regarding whether they indeed imply a value for the ratio circumference to diameter of a circle or actually something else. 1229:
either side was able to come up with a good title. But the idea that the article should focus on the push by some people to switch over to tau. I don't recall any opposition to that. However, the article has to describe what those people say are their reasons for advocating it. That's true of any article about a group advocating for something. --

The correct chronology is (various related values were used by different mathematicians in different cultures) =: -->
1736:
I don't think any tau supporters/activists are arguing that we should switch to tau because some particular ancient mathematicians used the number. Their reasons for mentioning it are probably (1) To provide perspective, that just because everybody does something a particular way today, doesn't mean

I do understand the concern about a potential article being too promotional, I have seen it happen, and the reverse, where an article becomes an attack site. However, I do not think this is a valid reason for not having a WP article on any subject. In this particular case, I belive that there is a

The most recently discussed version of the article was written like an advocacy piece (a long listing of formulas involving tau with editorialization about how the notation improved them), with a tacked-on piece of revisionist history at the end explaining how various historical mathematicians really

I don't recall any "tauists" being "strongly opposed to" the article being about tauism, as Arthur stated. Or even mildly opposed. I think there was some uncertainty about whether the precise title should be "tauism". That name is really just a joke made by Michael Hartl. Unfortunately, nobody on

Let's not start that (notability) argument now. It seems people here are just talking about where sufficient notability is most likely to be found in the near future. Multiple editors here (and in the past) have made clear they're nowhere near seeing enough for the number, but may soon or already
1410:
I don't think "Tau movement" is an accurate title. It's not like there's generally coordinated action in defense of tau; rather, various people have been promoting the concept in different venues, often based in previous/contemporary activity but usually not coordinated with it. "Tauism" is an even
1166:
Count me in too. Whilst I do not believe that that tau is a serious, or even interesting, mathematical, topic I do believe that the movement to promote tau easily meets the WP criteria for inclusion, along with many other fringe subjects. I remain baffled by the strength of feeling against having

There is nothing to stop editors creating the page outside article space, as a userspace draft. That means there is content to discuss and in userspace there are no notability requirements. Then once ready it can be proposed as an article. But this should only be done if it's substantially improved
396:
No, this is the talk page for a redirect, it has no content for discuss. A valid question might be 'should this be an article?' except we've had that discussion, in an RfC, the point of which is for everyone to put their views and try and come to consensus. That has now ended and there is no point

I see no benefit in leaving the subject for a while. What is going to happen. Will the hard line 'no article' editors change their minds? Will they move on and leave the subject to others? I have read the previous discussions and there was an AfD with the result 'keep' followed by an RfC on a
559:
Sudo, my case is your case. Like you, I have no special interest in the subject only an interest in improving Knowledge (XXG). There are very few mathematician who discuss whether it might have been better to have used Tau rather than Pi but for the most part mathematicians find the subject very

My approach is going to be to continue to post new possible sources here on this page as I come across them. Until I see reason to believe that some editors' opinions have been changed, at least to neutral, I see no reason to waste everybody's time, especially my own, with anything beyond that.
496:
It would also mean there was a new article that could be proposed for mainspace like at the last RfC, because 'is this topic notable' is a pretty meaningless question without an article, and has already been answered for Tazerdadog's version. Of course I would only advise this if the article were

My point is that the existing historical references should be scrutinized. The convention to use π as standard circle constant was established only a few hundred years ago. One has to be careful in the case of older documents when saying that they "imply" a value for π. For example, based on the

Conflating usage from times before mathematicians standardized on π (when 2π was one of several values used in circle calculations) with the modern push to replace the symbol π with a symbol for 2π is probably a mistake. This is not an example of "really people already use tau as a symbol so it

A thought for the tauists: the fringe following of τ may eventually result in the creation of a wiki article on the "τ movement", but what is clear is that such an article will most likely not be allowed to reproduce a list of mathematical formulae with pi replaced by tau. Such an exercise will

1205:
I agree. I see little scope for ever creating an article on the mathematical properties of 2π, separate from our article on π, as for the foreseeable future π will remain the primary name for this topic and the two numbers just don't have significant differences in their mathematics. If tau is

This subject far exceeds the normal criteria for notability. Academic web sites are considered reliable sources and there are two that mention this subject in a light-hearted but mathematical fashion. There is an abundance of quality news sources mentioning the crazy Tau movement. By any
1492:
Unless something has changed since the previous RFC, there aren't any reliable sources to warrant an article on any such "movement". Outside of a few brief mentions in the same exact sources that fail to show notability for Tau itself, there's no coverage of any such movement. -
859:
Will not work, still have not rose Euler from the dead. But, if this textbook had problems based in tau and used it where ever 2pi was used? What about with a Wikibook? How much use has to be proved in order for an article to exist? Why does have to be different for tau? -+-
1704:
One example: According to "Pi - Unleashed" p. 167, the Babylonian clay tablet states that the circumference of an hexagon is 24/25 times the circumference of the circumscribed circle. It does not mention the ratio circumference to diameter of the circle.

Bottom line is, it will take another RFC process to reverse the decision not to have a separate article. There's no point putting all of us through that until a different outcome is expected. Which side is right simply doesn't matter.
