Talk:Impossible world

message: This definition is hilarious.
A thing (an impossible world) is exactly the same thing as something else (a possible world), except that it is different.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.72.191.171 (talk) 06:10, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  possible vs. impossible 

message: there is exactly 4 kinds of impossible worlds and non-normal is only a part of this, please rewrite the whole thing because it only talks about non-normal worlds which only deals with logic but impossible worlds are not only about logic, thanks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.143.178.204 (talk) 11:57, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

Didn't Emperor Claudius compile an Etruscan-Latin dictionary oh, seven or eight centuries earlier?

replies: text: Did he? Did "Emperor Claudius compile an Etruscan-Latin dictionary oh, seven or eight centuries earlier?" Was it "substantial", and has it survived?

thread_title: [Untitled]

message: K. C. Tang queried what I meant as "substantial" when talking about this dictionary (see history page of main article). Well, I would say a dictionary in three volumes (on the Mahayana, the Hinayana, and one of Indexes), which had 9,565 lexical entries divided into 277 chapters and descriptions of the meaning of the more difficult words, would qualify as "substantial", whereas, say, a wordlist of a few hundred words would not. This dictionary was developed under royal patronage by an international team of some of the finest scholars of the day. There is nothing definite about what makes up a "substantial work," but I think most readers would agree that this is indeed quite a substantial work  John Hill 05:12, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Daniel Lima

message: A tag has been placed on :Daniel Lima requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. 
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.  Codemonkey76 04:43, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Predicate abstraction

message: In computer science, predicate abstraction means something quite different.
It is a form of Abstract interpretation where the possible states of a computer program are managed as formulas over a set of predicates. This can be used to prove safety properties of computer programs. For example, the SLAM project uses this to verify that Windows device drivers do not crash.
Would it make sense to split this article into Predicate abstraction (Logic) and Predicate abstraction (Computer science)? I admit that I know nothing about predicate abstraction in logic, but could help with the CS part.

message: The scientific community... doesn't regard "Vlach" (as in Serbia) or Moldovan, last I checked, as different languages. Governments do. Should we really be favoring politics over science in the infobox? I'm fine if we agree to do so and will abide by it, but I want to know the thoughts of others: .--Calthinus (talk) 16:35, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, they are not different languages (scientifically as well), however, there are official stances we may not ignore, if there are two main article about it and linked to the template (any offical things may be regarded just a derivative of politics, even if every official thing is by the way the result of politics). However, if you meant "infobox" here in the template, the "speech community" phrase is well set as it does not say it would not be the same language, just grouping the speakers combined with location.(KIENGIR (talk) 22:57, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: As I understand "Vlach language in Serbia" is dedicated to the Romanian variant spoken in Serbia (and is a variant of the Banat dialects of Romanian), Moldovan is the Romanian variant of Moldova (and Transnistria). I assume that both variants have it peculiarities (primarily for political and historical reasons). As far as I know, politics does sometimes matter: Serbian language and Croatian language; Czech language and Slovakian language; German language.... Borsoka (talk) 00:26, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

text: This is the idea, to present these language variants ​​(as they are called) of the respective communities. In Serbia (and Bulgaria, in the adjacent area), the Romanian community on the Timok Valley is called Vlach (unlike the Romanian community in Vojvodina (western Banat)); subdialectal, the so called Vlach language is divided between the variants spoken in Banat and Oltenia. Regarding Moldova, both names, Romanian or Moldovan, are used. However, I have no objections to other better ways of highlighting these two links (articles).

Talk:1971 Masters Tournament

message: The article says that Harmon withdrew "during" the first round and that Middlecoff withdrew "during" the second round. I question that phraseology, even though it comes from newspaper reports at the time. I believe that the sportswriter who wrote that did not mean that the two former champions literally walked off the course in the middle of their rounds which is what "during" connotes.
My best guess is that Middlecoff signed for his first-round 75, and then decided to not play the second round. And I guess that Harmon had a poor first round and did not sign his scorecard, thereby withdrawing. So Harmon's withdrawal would have been reported in the write-ups of the first round whereas Middlecoff's withdrawal would not have been known to the sportswriters until the day of the second round.
Can anyone shed light on this matter? I think we should probably get this resolved one way or the other since withdrawing "during" a round is a serious no-no for a professional golfer.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whosnext23 (talk • contribs) 23:58, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

message: This article reads very much from a Catholic point of view.  It may be that this term is used only in Catholicism, and that no similar term exists in any other culture.  It may also be that the information here presented is entirely accurate within the context of Roman Catholicism.  However, all else aside, it appears that this article is almost a word-for-word port from the Catholic Encyclopaedia; and while it may well serve the purpose of informing the reader about 'heroic virtue, the context in which it has been written may favour those who share that viewpoint.  - Shrivenzale 06:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:General Electric F110

message: I've never bothered to do this before, but I'm a bit annoyed. I haven't looked at more than a few articles on jet engines, but why is it that none of the ones I have read, like RB-199, or the F110 never bother to list the dry thrust in the specs.? At least in the RB-199 article, it mentions both dry and augmented thrust in the text. On this page all that is mentioned (in the text AND the specifications) is Maximum Thrust, i.e. on afterburner. Since a jet spends most of it's flight time on dry thrust, it seems like it would be nice to include that as well. I suppose instead of bitching about it, I should just go dig up my big tome on modern jets, look it up and fix it myself. I just wonder if ALL the jet engine articles neglect this, or if I was just unlucky. .45Colt  (talk)
