Accept reason: I have granted you an IP block exemption so that you are able to edit over the Great Firewall. –MuZemike 07:47, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a reason you're editing through a proxy? Please see WM:NOP for more information. Elockid ^(Talk) 22:06, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm from China, I have to use proxies to bypass The Great Firewall.--Atry (talk) 01:59, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Vernier Scale Edits[edit]

Hi, Atry. I just noticed some of the edits you made to the page on Vernier scales. Very interesting! I looked into the references you posted, but I was a bit confused. What part of the technology was invented in ancient China, the calipers, or the two sliding scales with different gradations? It seems to me from the references that it was only the physical portion that was invented in 9 AD, presumably with only a single scale? Any thoughts?

Yes. You are right. There is only a single scale on it. --Atry (talk) 05:27, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
