Talk:Life After Life (Moody book)

message: I'm in favor of spinning off the band part. Personally I hardly ever look for bands so all the incidental band (and Simpsons) info in the articles is rather distracting for me.

message: Verbal has placed a "notability" tag on this article, but has not explained why. The book is a bestseller. It has a forward by the famed Elizabeth Kubler Ross and according to Amazon.com has been cited by at least one hundred books 
In a critical review of Life After Life, in Kindred Spirit the journal of the Dallas Theological Seminary, Charles Caldwell Ryrie refers to Moody as a "respected medical researcher" and points out that Life After Life has appeared in a condensed version in the Readers' Digest.  The book is obviously notable. I shall remove the tag. Sunray (talk) 06:41, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

message: The article associated with this book is pretty brief, but I would have expected something in the way of criticism.  It doesn't take a Ph.D. in statistics to observe that a "study" containing a synthesis of 150 case reports does not constitute reliable scientific evidence.

Talk:Square engine

message: I think there needs to be a disambiguation page for "Square Engine".  It can mean at least two things:
# A particular piston configuration typical of 4-cylinder motorcycles
# An engine where bore and stroke are equal (or at least approximately equal)
The current "Square Engine" article deals with meaning 1 above, but does not address meaning 2.  However, I found at least one link to the "Square Engine" article that seems to have been inserted with meaning 2 in mind.  An example is the "Stroke Ratio" article.
: If #2 is used less frequently, then just link to #2 from the top of this page.  --Interiot 22:55, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: disambiguation

message: Most of the article seems to be devoted to the "square four" engine, which is the special case of a U engine with four cylinders.
One sentence in the article is given for the usual meaning of a "square engine", that being an engine with a stroke ratio of 1.
My suggestion for a plan of action is as follows:
* Create a subsection in the U engine article titled "square four"
* Move the "square four" information to that subsection.
* Turn this article into a disambiguation page, directing readers to either U engine for the "square four" or Stroke ratio for the engine with a stroke ration of 1.
This should be satisfactory for all concerned. Respectfully, SamBlob (talk) 14:57, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

message: The page says, "an engine with a stroke ratio of 1 (+/- 5%)"
Minor question, I agree with "stroke ratio" but is square used a description for a cylinder or an engine in this case? I would have said cylinder.  --Bridge Boy (talk) 10:20, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Shoma Morita

message: I think you will find that much of the text here comes from my circa 1999 article "A Gentle Introduction to Constructive Living" preserved at the Wayback Machine and while I don't mind, in fact the footer on the preserved wayback page does tell you it was Open Content, but I'm thinking it would be kind of nice if I was given credit.  Oh and feel free to pillage more content from the original too!  As for the Freud reference, I put that into the original for cinematic effect, to set the time period as something familiar to western readers and to emphasize the tragedy that even to this day modern psychology studies ignore Morita, at best dismiss him in a paragraph or two.  Also it is not entirely correct to say that Morita Therapy is a branch of Cognitive Therapy as that discipline did not exist at his time; it is more accurate to say that his method is comparable to modern cognitive therapy --Teledyn (talk) 22:21, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

message: 'Implicit in Morita's method ... is an independence of thought and action, something a little alien to the Western ideal to "follow our whims and moods."'
Absurd statement. For one thing, the need for Morita's therapy wouldn't have existed in Japan if there weren't so many people suffering as a result of following their whims and moods. And what Western ideal are you talking about? The stiff upper lip? Stoicism?
More importantly, it doesn't seem that Morita himself held this opinion of West vs. East but is rather a fanciful interpolation by somebody ignorant of both cultures.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:12C1:4B2F:6CBB:E3F7:C92:CEF6 (talk) 12:57, 8 June 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Film industry in Florida

message: At the very least, the capitals need to be removed. I'm thinking perhaps Cinema of Florida, to bring it in line with the naming conventions established by the World Cinema series, or perhaps film industry of Florida or film in Florida (similar to film in Kansas City).

thread_title:  Needs moving 

message: I changed the title to Film industry in Florida to align it with the titles for other states. "Cinema of Florida" really implies that the films' contents are somehow specific to Florida, as they would be for a country. An example: Cinema of Mexico might imply not only the film industry in Mexico, but also the specifically Mexican content of the films, Mexico being a country. An article about film in Florida is not about that, it's about the industry, the economy of it, the incentives and so forth. So to speak of the industry (film industry) as opposed to the art (cinema) seems more appropriate. And it was how just slightly more articles were titled. Keizersnl (talk) 02:43, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Change in title 

message: This article needs a monitor to keep it current with events in the industry. The 2006 citation of the Florida Film Commission is horribly out of date for something like this, and businesses and studios may be out of business or new studio locations may have been built. I only had time for one movie listing update. If it is to be turned into an article that does not require updating, it needs to be edited to reflect only the top most notable accomplishments of the industry in Florida.

Talk:Alma, Colorado

message: As we have begun discussing on Extreme points of the United States, there is a argument over whether WP or Alma is the highest town in the US. Winter Park would be higher because of the recent annexing of Winter Park Resort into the town. The ski area goes all the way up to aprox 12,000ft. That clearly makes WP higher.

thread_title:  Article maintenance 

message: This article is promarily about the Boldt Decision, but when it comes to fishing rights in the PNW, it seems that the Belloni Decision, coming from Sohappy v. Smith a few years prior, is similarly important legal precedent.
Recently Sohappy v. Smith was proposed for deletion. As a result,  and I have explored that case and its connections to this one. We're both a little uncertain: Is the best approach to merge what little content exists there into this article, and redirect here, or to build out that article to be a little more thorough? It seems as though one or the other of those approaches is needed, as the current stub-like article is not particularly informative, and even lead me (the creator of that article) to get confused between United States v. Washington and United States v. Oregon. Neither of us are expert in complex legal cases, so some help from someone more conversant in this area would be most welcome.

The ONLY indication that this ride is currently referred to as "Batman the Ride" is on employee certification cards, where it is called that.
