Talk:Gibibit

message: Discussion about centralization took place at Talk:Binary prefix.
Right, according to the article there is a clear distinction between 10 to the power 9 and 2 to the power 30, while they are stated as equivalent in the table. Why is this?
Balenman
The table does not say that 109 is equivalent to 230; rather, it says that "gigabit" is either 109 or 230 (because "gigabit" is ambiguous) and that "gigabit" is related to "gibibit".

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Fora

message: The issue, I believe, that a lot of these forums have in common, is the debate over 'size'.  It seems that if a forum or discussion board is 'big', then it is kept, otherwise, it is deleted.  For example, GameFAQs is obviously huge, so it gets lots of keep votes, but a forum set up by a 15-year-old with 300 forums using InvisionFree, with his kid brother and himself as the other member, as the only two members, gets lots of delete votes.
So, I think that it is necessary for to set some sort of criteria of 'size' for articles.
Unfortunately, this is generally quite a grey area...

message: Ok, I know the spelling has always been contentious and don't wish to open a bunfight but Newport City Council's own website consistently refers to 'Lliswerry' as the ward and area as does all spelling of the name for buildings and organisations in the area. eg Lliswerry schools, Lliswerry AFC and all Wikipedia references. The only anomaly is the actual article title 'Liswerry'. Therefore unless there is an objection I propose for consistency to move the page from Liswerry to Lliswerry.

Talk:Aldinga, South Australia

message: The edits have been made.  FIRSTLY, sections ‘Tourism’ and ‘Local Political Issues’ have been removed because these sections are off-topic (i.e. the content is relevant to the suburb of Aldinga Beach) and do not have any citations.  In particularly, ‘Local Political Issues’ was tagged as being ‘uncited’ since October 2009 (i.e. 5 years ago).  SECONDLY, the ‘History’ section has been upgraded to replace content is either trivial (i.e. Flinders did sail past but he did not specifically mention the locality in his book) or incorrect (i.e. the local port was Port Willunga and the Fleurieu Peninsula whose name came into use during the 20th century was served by ports at Myponga Beach, Carrickalinga, Normanville, Second Valley, Rapid Bay et al).  THIRDLY, the following sentence from the lead section has been removed because the suburb is not on the coast (but rather several kilometres inland) and that it is not on the Fleurieu Peninsula: ‘Aldinga is well known for its long flat beaches on the Gulf St Vincent on the western side of Fleurieu Peninsula.’  Regards Cowdy001 (talk) 00:03, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Emperor Higashiyama

message: It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it to be moved. Paul August ☎ 21:13, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
There is a standard format for the titles of articles on monarchs, and there is no reason for Emperor Higashiyama to be exempt from this. Just as Emperor Go-Toba of Japan and Richard II of England are listed as such, so should this article be moved back to "Emperor Higashiyama of Japan". LordAmeth 11:03, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: This discussion is already going on without you at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related articles). The consensus at this point (with a couple of exceptions) is that the titles should be "Emperor X" only. (The person who moved this article is a rogue who is just acting unilaterally.) The Wikipedia rules on naming monarchs makes an exception for Asian monarchs and the rule for adding the country name preemptively only applies to European monarchs where there might be confusion. There is no possibility of confusing Emperor Higashiyama. Even the word Higashiyama is about as Japanese as you can get. In any event, there is presently zero support for leaving the "of Japan" on the titles. Please continue this discussion at the above referenced page. -Jefu 12:10, August 19, 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Virginia State Route 620 (Fairfax and Loudoun Counties)

message: I do not think Braddock Road in Alexandria is 'related' as the Braddock Road that runs through Fairfax and Loudon Counties. There's a rather significant gap between the western terminus of the Alexandria road  (at North Beauregard Street near the Alexandria campus of the Northern Virginia Community College), and the eastern terminus of the Fairfax/Loudon portion (at Columbia Pike, near Lake Barcroft). Also, the Fairfax/Loudon Braddock Road generally runs several miles to the south of Alexandria's Braddock Road (e.g. No part of Alexandria's Braddock Road is south of Rt 236 whereas all but the ultimate eastern terminus of Fairfax/Loudon's remains about two miles south of 236. Looking at where and how the two roads ends, I can't see a possible connection that would have made them continuous...

Talk:Marine shrimp farming/FIGIS data

message: This table is transcluded in the article Shrimp farm. I generally don't construct articles through transclusion, but in this case I thought the mechanism was handy. It separates the table (with all its layout directives) from the main article text. This facilitates editing the article, because the huge text needed to compose the table just isn't there. Furthermore, transcluding the table helps avoid sneaky vandalism because it's not that easy to get to the table in the first place. I chose to transclude a subpage instead of a template because I didn't want to pollute the Template: space with stuff that applies to one article only. Lupo 12:21, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
:However, this is not a subpage. Subpages don't exist in the main article namespace any more, that fuctionality was disabled long ago.
