from your house to the telephone switching center), and the people you could reach by calling that number. Nowadays numbers are not associated with physical wires and houses. Unfortunately because of the title for this article it would not make sense to use the other meaning of "telephone number" for this concept, even though that might translate better to modern cell systems. โ€”
696:, which lists an indiscriminate collection of far too many things, has been a magnet for problem editors pushing even more stuff into it, and doesn't currently link this article (nor should it be expanded). I don't think it provides any useful information to readers. It is just an excuse to link stuff for the purpose of linking stuff. โ€” 1198:
Heh. None of the four friends I asked got it right, but maybe we're just unusually ignorant. I mean, one could simply phrase it as "how many ways can n people call each other?" but it loses the exclusivity implication and so would need more clarification. Another option is to give a short definition,

Also what? The Hosoya index of a complete graph counts the number of patterns of pairwise connections between n vertices in a graph where any pair can be connected. The nth telephone number counts the number of patterns of pairwise connections between n subscribers to a telephone system where any

Maybe we need to think about writing this in terminology that will be comprehensible to younger generations. A "phone line" used to mean the number you would dial (not press, dial), the wire into your house carrying the service for that number (a single twisted pair of wires extending all the way

pair can be connected. Except for changing the words "vertices" to "subscribers" and "graph" to "telephone system" they are exactly the same thing. The part before the semicolon explains why they are the same thing (because any pair can be connected). โ€”

This one, on the other hand, is I think just a random combinatorics text, replaceable by any number of equivalent combinatorics texts. I don't have any complaints about it but I don't see it as standing out from a crowded field.
1266:
Oh, I see. I was reading it wrong, and thought "for which any pattern of pairwise connections is possible" was solely to describe complete graphs, rather than also as a logical tool for the connection to telephone numbers.

2b: These sources are fine, but I'm not sure that this is the only information available. Can you please tell me if this is all the information available. I'll put this and 3a as a pass if it is fine.

Except for a couple of brief questions that don't really address the GA criteria, there has been no review since you agreed to take this on 2 1/2 months ago. When can I expect a review? โ€”

6b: This is not a big problem, but I would suggest to move the pictures up a bit, so that it won't go into the next section. This is optional though, so you don't have to do it.

Could we use "telephone pole" instead of "telephone line"? It's very easy to think of "telephone lines" as the wires/edges connecting the poles/vertices.

Should it be "probabilist", "probabilistic" or "probabilist's"? I changed it to the latter but that's just my intuition.

Ok, that's fine, I was just asking because I wasn't sure about it.
