Talk:Mark Jansen

message: — JIP | Talk 11:08, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

message: The article on [Floor Jansen], singer of [After Forever] states that she is a dramatic soprano. This article, however, claims that "In both After Forever and Epica, Mark has performed growled vocals to complement the mezzosoprano voice of the band's main singer". What irks me here is the 'mezzosoprano' part, as
1) A singer can't be both a soprano and mezzo-soprano at the same time 
2) It's spelt utterly wrong. 
I don't see a startling need for a link towards the mezzo-soprano page in this article, that would justify a factual error and Wikipedia antinomy, therefor I'm rewording this part to "In both After Forever and Epica, Mark has performed growled vocals, complementing the vocals of, respectively, Floor Jansen and Simone Simons"  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.142.29.217 (talk) 06:11, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Digital compositing

message: This is a very technical explanation. I'd like to help put it into plain English, but don't want to get anything wrong. Howabout, for example: "It relies on replacing parts of one image with another. This is achieved by making transparent any part of the image which is a specified colour (e.g. green, blue, or black). This allows a second image to 'show through', creating a composite." --Rayray 11:34, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

message: The article on compositing has been replaced with new material. Jim Stinson 23:16, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  new compositing article 

message: From the Article:
:Note that if the operations are performed in a colour space where γ is not equal to 1 then the operation will lead to non-linear effects which can potentially be seen as aliasing artifacts (or 'jaggies') along sharp edges in the matte.
I very much doubt that linear light and gamma have much to do with aliasing here. How could this possibly lead to visibly jagged lines after compositing? Even if we were talking about rendering, I would expect that other effects (eg. light sources appearing too dark) will be much more visible. Also, the uninformed reader is tempted to assume that linear light is the most common choice for computer graphics. It should be made clear that this is not the case. --Matumio (talk) 18:08, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Hideki Tojo succeeds as party leader and Prime Minister

message: This article has a large amount of material that can be moved to other places or otherwise must be radically restructured. The content is valid, but either fusing it into Hideki_Tojo or shifting the content to an article like "Tojo Cabinet" to examine the politics, rise and fall, and impact of the Tojo-headed government. It is about a very important person and time in history, but the content reads like a high-school history paper, and as such lacks the concise and objective style that makes Wikipedia succesful.

Talk:Eichmann Trial

message: This is a reasonable article, but a few things can be improved:
* "Hermann soon began a correspondence with Fritz Bauer, chief prosecutor for the West German state of Hesse .... Bauer knew that Germany, served by former employees of the Nazi regime, would do little to serve justice to Eichmann. He contacted Israeli officials..." - this doesn't really make sense.  If he knew that Germany wouldn't prosecute Eichmann, then why did he correspond with Bauer?  Maybe he only came to that conclusion after corresponding with Bauer, in which case the wording should be changed.  In any case Germany did prosecute some former Nazis so this should be given as Hermann's opinion (or maybe it was Bauer's opinion?) rather than as a fact that he "knew".
* Eichmann's appeal is not mentioned, but it should be.
* "The trial caused huge international controversy" but why?  The nature of the controversy should be explained, and also the related rift between Israel and Argentina.
* A lot went on behind the scenes in this trial, including direct involvement of the government in how the trial was conducted.  For example, it was a government decision to admit a lot of testimony about the Holocaust that had nothing to do with Eichmann.  The trial was seen as an opportunity to educate the world about the Holocaust.  Such government interference was of doubtful legality.

message: I propose to merge Eichmann Trial into Adolf Eichmann. While an Eichmann Trial article may be useful, the trial itself is best explained in the context of Eichmann's life and crimes. The Eichmann biography article is better formatted, researched, cited, and annotated, and the current Trial article is lacking and unlikely to be properly updated, given its low priorities in its related WikiProjects pages. An Eichmann Trial page could simply redirect to the Trial subsection of the Eichmann biography page. Wuhbecca (talk) 14:48, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

I have therefore rewritten the material and kept it in the temporary page to which I was directed to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vishwamitri_river/Temp
