thread_title:  How do Allegro and the [[Simple DirectMedia Layer]] library compare? 

message: A recent edit added this: "Allegro has been successfully ported to Xbox, though it cannot be released due to legality reasons."
Anyone has a reference for that, and info by who and in what way it was ported? Else I guess that should be removed or somehow marked as unverified info.. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Allefant (talk • contribs) .
:Actually, from what I know it is not completely true. Shawn said that Allegro graphics were working, but not the other elements like sound and timers.   Note that it is true the part about legal stuff, you must own the SDK to release it, and could be used only for those who have bought the SDK. He did so to include a copy of a game he wrote with Allegro in Moto GP. He also confirmed that the port is not finished.  -- ReyBrujo 04:25, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes, that's just what I thought: "I never properly ported Allegro to Xbox, and never used it for anything" - in light of that, i removed the links to MotoGP games (they are *not* games made with Allegro) and the claim of an XBox port (there is no port, even if it's possible to get some Allegro examples running (without Allegro though)). --Allefant 22:56, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Um. A google search for "Allegro library" yields 43800 results, and on the first page they all seem to refer to this library. A search for "Allegro project" yields 617 results, and they seem to mostly refer to some other projects (including the #1 hit). I also know that on the mailing list and in forums it is referred to as library, not project - so changed back to the old name for now. --Allefant 00:54, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Requested move

message: Since the switch from Geshi to Pygments for syntax highlighting (phab:T85794), support for 'q' was unfortunately dropped, as can be seen with the plain text formatting on this page, and other such as K (programming language), ELI (programming language).  If we want 'q' syntax highlight support again, it will need to be added to Pygments.  However, Pygments does include support for 'apl', 'j', etc, which may be a suitable fallback, and it can be very easily added like this patch. 
Also, Q (programming language from Kx Systems) uses lang=q.  Is that correct? John Vandenberg (chat) 21:32, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

My mother's maden name is Linda Burnett daughter of Madeline and Kenneth Burnett of West Des Moines Iowa.

message: I wonder if this should be redirected to individualism? Michael Hardy 19:57, 5 Sep 2003 (UTC)

message: The new additions to the article are interesting and inventive; unfortunately they seem like original research and seem to be more about the concept of the individual or achievements of individuals, rather than individuality.  Unless some sources and some relevance can be added, it seems that these changes will have to be removed.  Maybe instead of that, the additions can be broken up into sections, such as "definitions of individuality," "roles of the individual," "threats to individuality," and so on--but sources will still be required.--Pariah (talk) 05:12, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pauper's oath

message: It's called a "fee waiver" in California: California Judicial Council Forms.  Click on the "fee waiver" form.
This seems to be a current site for judicial council forms.  I believe that pro per filing guidelines  holds true for federal civil courts, although a stubborn judge can stop a litigant from pursuing appeals in pro per using filing fee waivers (an example being United States District Court for the Southern District of California Judge Marilyn Huff and Alan Bersin).  And California has the "vexatious litigant" laws, seemingly aimed at irate impoverished plaintiffs. And prisoners can always file appeals and writs in pro per (here pro se).  Fee waiver and pro per requests often appear in the same court filing.
So it's still possible to begin litigation with fee waivers, it's just a little bit harder to win a case.  But "wronged party" and "innocent person" are still words in the English language, so even with stiffer guidelines for seeking redress in court, satisfaction can still be won by an impoverished litigant.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.55.37.12 (talk) 03:50, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I don't know if there's any source for this infatuation, but if there is, we must remember that Joan suffered a biased religious press at the time. It's not the sort of analysis you expect to see in a medieval history article, to be honest.
In any case, the comment makes dubious sense in its own terms, does it not? Joan's life started in 1328 and Charles's started in 1345, seventeen years later. It's true that Joan brought him up at her court, where she could, I suppose, have become infatuated with him later on; but he would have needed to be a young man for that to happen, surely, so we're talking about 1360 at the very earliest, by which time the major part of Joan's life was in the past. So she couldn't have been *infatuated with him throughout her life".

Talk:John Dudley, 1st Duke of Northumberland

message: Err...shouldn't this be at "John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland"?  The man was known by various titles over the course of his life - Viscount Lisle, Earl of Warwick, Duke of Northumberland.  Presumably, the highest should be the one in the article title. john 06:33, 6 Sep 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: The supposed system actually is to use the title someone is best known by. There are currently a number of entries (mostly for more modern politicans who became peers after their political retirement) which illustrate this. However, in this case, I think Dudley is better known as Duke of Northumberland, and I've actually contemplated moving it myself. Loren Rosen 06:44, 6 Sep 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, if somebody is very clearly best known by one title, that title should be used.  Thus, I put John Carteret, Earl Granville, in as John Carteret, 2nd Lord Carteret, his title for the most important part of his political career.  Or Benjamin Disraeli as that, rather than Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield.  However, when it's unclear what title is the most commonly used, the default should be to use the highest.

In this Carrollian political satire, c. 1904, Sir Howard Vincent is shown as the White Knight, and one of the gadgets he carries is a Big Revolver, which he says is Lansdowne 's. 
What is the reference? It seems to have been well known at the time, and should prob be sourced and put in the article. From the context of other talk about it I have seen, the Big Revolver seems to refer to imposing tariffs to retaliate against nations that have high tariffs.
