Talk:Sedna (mythology)

message: In Rudyard Kipling's The Second Jungle Book story Quiquern, he says this:
Now Sedna is the Mistress of the Underworld, and the Inuit believe that every one who dies must spend a year in her horrible country before going to Quadliparmiut, the Happy Place, where it never freezes and the fat reindeer trot up when you call.

Talk:Fictitious entry

message: The section begins:
:Fictitious entries on maps may be called phantom settlements, trap streets, paper towns, cartographer's follies, or other names. They are intended to serve as traps for identifying copyright infringements.
But the section that follows doesn't back that up. The fictitious entities Goblu and Beatosu and Mount Richard are jokes, not copyright traps. The last paragraph explains that copyright traps are _not_ fictitious entities or other deliberate mistakes, but only stylistic fingerprints. Only one of the entries, Agloe, actually is a fictitious entity intended as a copyright trap, and of course that one ended up being non-fictitious. --50.0.128.103 (talk) 05:16, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Talk:One-drop rule

message: :Between 1904 and 1919, tribal members with any amount of African ancestry were disenrolled from the Chitimacha tribe of Louisiana, and their descendants have since then been denied tribal membership.
The source for this info is a dead website, with no Web Archive page - when it is opened in Archive, it has one snapshot that goes to the same white screen the current version hangs on before redirecting to a "buy this page" format. Additionally, this information is absent from the Chitimacha page, but it is mentioned on Tribal disenrollment. However, that page links to a different version of the same website, which still does that redirect. In my cursory searches, I can't find anything that sources this information. This is nowhere near my area of expertise, and I would feel weird for changing the main page out of the blue like this. Could this sentence either be sourced again or removed?

thread_title:  Sound 

message: This section begins: 'The album's front cover is credited as "Cover painting by Frandsen-De Schomberg with thanks to his son, Emile, for the abuse of his house." Bobby revealed in an interview in August 1970 they started an egg-throwing fight at Frandsen's house in France which his son Emile covered for them. Then he took them to his father's studio where they saw the painting that would become their album cover.' 
The second sentence doesn't make sense. How would anyone 'cover an egg-throwing fight'? From the interview (which was in 2011, not 1970) it seems Whitlock may have thought that the painter whose house this had formerly been was still alive, but according to the biography section of the website that the interview links to, he died the year before: '1969 [...] il décède le 11 Avril à Grasse' = he died 11th April in Grasse. https://peintre-emile-frandsen.com/index.php/biographie-3/ 
I suggest replacing this with: 
The album's front cover is credited as "Cover painting by Frandsen-De Schomberg with thanks to his son, Emile, for the abuse of his house". Bobby Whitlock revealed in an interview that while they were staying at Emile Frandsen's house in France in August 1970, he took them to his father's studio just after they had made a mess by throwing eggs at each other. It was there that they saw "La Fille au Bouquet" (Girl with bouquet), the painting by Émile-Théodore Frandsen de Shomberg that would become the cover of Layla.

thread_title: Inconsistency in dating

message: Pope John VIII had a condition on Photius’s restoration, namely he was to make an apology for his prior usurpation and excommunication. Photius, of course, in keeping with his character, never did that. And since he didn’t, his excommunication was never actually lifted. This means that there was never a need to excommunicate him again as he remained excommunicated. And of course Pope John VIII realizing there was no apology, refused to actually approve of such a council led by someone who remained excommunicated. This of course Dvornik should have noted, but seems to have missed the obvious requirement of repentance as part of Photius’s restoration.
The requirement of an apology is cited in The Photian schism. History and Legend, Francis Dvornik,p 173 cited at http://macedonia.kroraina.com/en/fdps/fdps_1.htm#c6

thread_title:  Digital Television Section 

message: The lede starts: "A television channel is a broadcast frequency or virtual number"...
I am not sure "virtual number" is a good definition. What is a "virtual" number, when all numbers are abstract (even real numbers)? Virtual number is a term used in telephony and is not the sense meant here. We have virtual channel later in the article and that is really what is meant, but saying "A television channel is a... virtual channel" seems somewhat circular. 
 is used several times (as plaintext) at virtual channel, to which it redirects. The term "descriptor" is also used, but this seems to mean all the metadata associated with a logical channel, not just the channel number.
Maybe the more-general "assigned number" or "allocated number" might be better? Within the lede, we don't really have to explain how they are assigned or allocated. 178.164.139.37 (talk) 08:29, 1 January 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Nymphaeales

message: If this were combined with hierarchal taxonomy, then the Nymphaeales must be placed into their own class, Nymphaeopsida.
If integrated with a hierarchial taxonomy that rejected paraphyletic groups, that would be true.  One would also need classes Austrobaileyopsida and Amborellopsida, possibly a few more.  But as far as I can tell, this has never been done.  Nymphaeopsida has been used, but it's really hard to tell if it's ever been used in the sense given here.  Hard-core monophyletics seem content to go without classes.  As such, shouldn't the above be tempered somewhat, to reflect how uncommon the system it's proposing is?
----
Groan.  Hierarchical taxonomy is inching closer to phylogenetic correctness.  I agree that the other groups you mentioned would be necessary.  So what?  We're using taxoboxes of hierarchical taxonomy.  If you feel this way, then I guess what I need to do is to start adding a second taxobox to each page to reflect the PhyloCode. jaknouse 18:52, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I agree. I find it disturbing this article makes no mention of John Milton's Paradise Lost. Accounts of this 'First War in Heaven' are NOT in the bible, but in church traditions based largely (and perhaps, mistakenly) on Milton's writings on the subject.
- I agree as well. The whole mormon page goes on for far too long. A paragraph at most would have been appropriate, but the length that's there is inappropriate.
