Looking to be a mod on any Wiki
Hey, if you guys happen to know a Wiki thats looking for a mod, could you please send me a link to it? Thanks a lot!
Auto-confirmed User?
So yesterday, I was looking around this Wiki, seeing if there was anything I could edit, and then went to my message wall and saw my account, nothing strange there, but when I looked I saw next to my profile, it said "Autoconfirmed User". I don't know what it means, so I hope someone could explain it to me... Or I could just look it up on Google, whatever works.
NCERT on KA?
Khan Academy has assembled lots of video and made new Sections called NCERT (National Council for Education and Research training)
For guys who are wondering, this is totally a great news for me, because I am learning 10th grade NCERT(Unfortunately its yet to be released)

Math problem of the week (3)
The more armour is sloped, the thicker it be. You are in the Tiger-H tank with frontal armour of 100mm. An enemy soldier fire the RPG at you with piercing power of 180mm. The question is how many degree of slope armour you need in order to stop the RPG. Use basic trigonometry and calculator to solve the question. :1
KA Chat Dark Theme
This is a theme that can be used in your http://khanacademy.wikia.com/wiki/Special:MyPage/wikia.css. It adds a dark theme to the chat. To apply it, copy and paste the following code into your http://khanacademy.wikia.com/wiki/Special:MyPage/wikia.css file. Once completed, hard refresh the chat page via Ctrl+Shift+R in Webkit browsers or a similar method in others. Check back here frequently for any updates. You can check this by comparing the version number below to the one found in your CSS file. If you would like your name to have a special effect added to it, tell me in the community chat or comment below.
Having theme issues? No problem, copy from pastebin here to avoid keeping styles: http://pastebin.com/y3Z1xcaY
More themes are to come…
Math Problem of the Week.... week 2!
Let's go easy today....
Use the successor function .
I know how to do this already, just seeing who knows this. Tommorrow I will post the answers here.
6th grade math check
I have a problem that I'm kind of stuck on. My dad says it's a 6th grade problem. I don't think so. It's
How many degrees Celsius (°C) is 167°F? Use the formula below.
× (F – 32)
When I got stuck, dad gave me a hint. He said it's either 269°C, 111°C, 75°C, or 333°C.
I have no idea what so ever how to solve this. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but for some reason think it's 75°C
I would like any help or conclusions I admit that am feeling a bit confused. Okay, totally confused. Thanks!
Problem of the Day
Anyone want to solve this?
Solve for x.
That's what I got, hopefully you got the same thing!

Why not to Spam in Chat
Yesterday I was banned from chat for spamming. Never again. While chatting, remember: • Never spam, even when you are alone. • Never use capital letters only, even when you are alone. • All the guidelines apply even when you are alone! You are never above the law! :)
i haz moar classez :(
So since it's almost September I've got more schoolwork to do. I'm probably going to be less active, but still come on regularly.
Auto-refresh for Recent Activity
On Plants Vs. Zombies Wiki, their recent activity automatically refreshes when something new happens. I was wondering if we could get this feature :1
Here is the code (I'm not sure where it goes):
This will be really useful especially for vandalism, because users won't have to refresh the page a lot to see if they edited again.
Suppose
- Anthony Jacquez
- Balu.ur
Oppose
- TibetPrime
It's today!
Summer Surge! Ends! Today! (hope they release a leaderboard)
It's going to officially be released "11:59 PM PDT", or in my timezone, 3 in the morning tomorrow. :D
Law of cosines/sines question???
So, I recently got the Law of cosines and Law of sines exercises to practiced. Today, I got a mastery challenge, so I tried to do it.
The direction says:
Find .
Note that is acute. Round to the nearest degree.
There's a triangle, but I don't know if I'm supposed to use the law of cosines or the law of sines to solve it!!!
Why I should be an admin!
Because I was an admin on my previous account, Poohbear71, I should be an admin on this one
Help!
Tangents to polar curves is missing... and I forgot calculus a long time ago. Can someone help create this page?
Also: Users under 18, make sure you know what you're up against.
77 missing pages, 77 missing, Tariq down, pass it around, 76 missing pages
I made a script to search for math exercises which weren't on the wiki. Turns out there were 77 of them! Me & Tariq split it up almost evenly. I'm creating 39 pages, he's creating 38!

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door ..
Hey, guess who is roller ??
It was a pizza delivery person with five pizza boxes ..
My Cousins were not hungry ..
So the pizza all for me !!
But there were not any pizzas in the boxes !!
I was very sad ..
Indirect Eval: Possible Security Vulnerability in KA
Alright, so I'll sum this up in 5 words: Eval is working in KA! I'll report to Zendesk as soon as I have the time.
This is crazy. I'll try to give an explanation, so tell me if it's OK.
So, if you have a function f
, it can be called using f()
. This is called "Direct Calling". But there's another way to do it.
To understand this method, you first need to understand the comma operator. From Wikipedia,
the comma operator (represented by the token
,
) is a binary operator that evaluates its first operand and discards the result, and then evaluates the second operand and returns this value (and type).
For example, 0, 1
will always return 1
, and 0, 1, 2
will first evaluate 0, 1
, returning 1, and then compute 1, 2
which will return 2.
So can you guess what happens w…

Today is one of our important user birthday. It's good news for that particular user because it's one year closer to his inevitable life :1 Lets see how our users would response (just for fun, don't get serious :1).

- Cyan Wind: Happy~~
- HMcCoy: Let's me become more and less specific. You’re older. You’re wiser. You’re far too mature to be concerned with material things like presents. Take "cake"
- John Lee: ?
- Tariq Jabbar: Cool! :1 Thank :1

2,000,000 and Cam from KA's challenge
So I got the email this morning from Cam @ KA for a challenge to earn more than 50,000 points from today to August 28. So I thought, "Well I can beat that!" and earned 62,884 points as soon as I saw the email. In the process, I passed my personal goal of 2,000,000 points! Some pics:
Before:
After:
Woohoo!
EDIT: I am aware that the title of this blog post has an uncanny resemblance to Numberphile video titles. It was a honest coincidence.
