Please click here to leave me a new message. Women in Red World Contest Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest. There's a new bonus prize of $200 worth of books of your choice to win for creating the most new women biographies between 0:00 on the 26th and 23:59 on 30th November. If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale! Cipolla's algorithm and Tonelli's algorithm are able to find square roots of powers of prime modula I looked up Dickson's History of Numbers vol 1 p215(Tonelli) and p218(Cipolla) and Dickson clearly shows that both modular square root algorithms can handle powers of prime modula (whereas the Wiki articles say they can only do prime modula). I've updated the TALK pages of both articles with the relevant Dickson math, along with numeric runthroughs with Mathematica code. However, I am not a professional mathematician so I hesitate to update the articles. Perhaps yourself, or someone else in the Computer science field could update the relevant articles with this information from Dickson. The articles in question are: Tonelli–Shanks algorithm Cipolla's algorithm Endo999 (talk) 18:18, 2 February 2018 (UTC) Mark WikiProject Linux as inactive? Hi! I was directed to your talk page by the participants list on WikiProject Linux. I've started a discussion whether we can keep it running, or mark it as inactive.– Abuluntu ( talk 06:51, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
