thread_title:  I am looking for Sega Pico Books 

message: I don't know it for sure enough to add to the article, but based on the Pico demos I've seen in stores, I'm almost certain that it runs on the same hardware as the Sega Master System. The graphics look and move like Master System graphics, especially games that weren't that complex like crappy generic platformers. Since the Game Gear can play Master System games with nothing more than an adaptor to change the placement of the pins, Sega must have used these specifications for a few things, though obviously found smaller ways to make them. Does anyone know if a Pico is just a Master System in disguise?

From what I know, the Pico uses a 16 bit CPU, making it unlikely that it's based on SMS hardware. Considering this, and the 1994 release date, the Pico is probably based on Mega Drive hardware. I sure would love to get one... --Saoshyant 12:57, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Trademark

message: The text currently claims: “A trademark owner doesn't need to take enforcement action against all infringement if it can be shown that the owner perceived the infringement to be minor and inconsequential.” Implicitly, this seems to implies that if the infringement is not minor, then the trademark owner is under obligation to sue the infringing party. Is that right? I find this strange. I have added a “citation needed” tag. Jean Abou Samra (talk) 19:17, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Obligation of enforcement? 

message: The first paragraph of the "Fundamental concepts" declare that the trademarks indicates the origin of the goods. This was never correct, for example, when I buy a shirt with a polo player logo on it, it has not been made by Ralph Lauren Corporation somewhere in the US; it was most likely manufactured for the said corporation somewhere in East Asia. There are many marks related to trade, these are not all trademarks. A reference is needed, most likely the text will have to be changed. Викидим (talk) 10:32, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: No, you're clearly wrong on that point.  There are sources on this but I don't have half an hour to prepare full citations right now. This source stresses that identity of origin is at the core of European trademark law.  This source explains why the term "badge of origin" is so confusing because of how registered marks can be transferred or licensed in certain ways so that a mark may no longer literally identify the holder of the mark as the actual origin of the goods. --Coolcaesar (talk) 16:23, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, historically the trademarks evolved from the maker's marks (or a factory mark). No, AFAIK, their meaning has changed since, as your source acknowledges, "may in fact communicate very little about the origin of goods". Compare this to our text, "The essential function of a trademark is to exclusively identify the source or origin of products or services" (italics are mine). The particular polo shirt has a Ralph Lauren (RL) logo on it (registered to a US corporation), but it had been made in Vietnam on a no-name factory that probably simply has a contract with RL to produce these shirts. The "Usage" section gets it right: "A trademark identifies the brand owner of a particular product or service". Consumer brand owner in the modern world rarely has anything in common with the actual manufacturer. Викидим (talk) 17:28, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Edward Elgar

message: Tim riley You recently reverted a referenced addition to Edward Elgar (a street named after him). The summary stated: "rem (misspelled) trivia". Im not sure what rem means, I assume misspelled refers to "Honor vs Honour". As for trivia, the entry followed the line: "There are around 65 roads in the UK named after Elgar...". How is the name of another road/street in a different country trivia and not a proper inclusion to Honours, awards and commemorations? If this revert was done in error please correct it.

thread_title:  Infobox 

message: There is a clear bias I've noticed of late regarding infoboxes for articles about composers. While creating infoboxes for articles on notable British composers like Arthur Sullivan, Edward Elgar, etc. and German composers like Richard Wagner is discouraged, infoboxes exist on the articles of  notable American composers like Aaron Copeland and Igor Stravinsky. Why is this so? This seems like anti-European and pro-American bias.

Talk:Slippery slope

message: The first citation is from an old message board post, which to the best of my knowledge is not considered a high quality source. It's not necessarily bad information, but I think this might explain why the article is incoherent and sparked arguments a few years ago.
"Slippery slope" is variously defined as a logical fallacy and simply a type of argument. This is reflected in the article's sources, which equivocates on the term, but is not explicitly stated in the article text. Instead, we get the claim that SSA is a fallacious argument, followed by a claim that this fallacious argument has varying degrees of strength, then another claim essentially admitting that not all SSAs are fallacious. This should be resolved by clearly differentiating between the two senses of the term, IF that is the angle the article should take. That's the question I'm posing here.
Another possibility would be to reserve this article for discussion of the fallacy, only mentioning the other uses of the term for the purpose of disambiguation.
Keep in mind that the audience isn't necessarily college-educated and may not be familiar with logical fallacies beyond having heard the term "ad hominem" once or twice. 2603:7081:1603:A300:2CC4:A198:82DB:C8BF (talk) 01:15, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article is still arguing with itself 

message: We should cover this more and better, with reliable law sources. The primary usage of slippery slope to refer to arguments or concerns that are not innately fallacious is in law, where it is observed (for example) that eroding the protections of a right leads to further erosion of that and other rights. This sense of slippery slope is deeply embedded in US constitutional law, and the term may well have originated there. There could be some additional coverage of that in this article, and it would satisfy (at least to some extent) requests in an old thread to provide "examples" of when slippery slope is not a fallacy. (I warned of WP:NOR and WP:NOT#INDISCRIMINATE in that thread, though: we are not in a position to claim that particular events qualify as slippery slopes that came true. But that is not the same thing as observing usage and application of the phrase in particular fields like law where the meaning is not "slippery slope fallacy" but "slippery slope argument/principle".)  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  15:59, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Vote

message: : (regards talk:Main Page/layout discussion) I wonder how many Wikipedians know there is a vote going on.
It was advertised at the village pump, on recent changes, on wikipedia:list of ongoing votes, and on some relevant talk pages... but there's a limit to how much you can advertise before it's spam. :-/ Do you have any suggestions? Martin
:My first reaction was 'the discussion page for the Main Page', but I checked and its been there all along. I must have missed it, although it is on my watch list. Still if I missed it many others will have too (I'm pretty much a wikiholic, though my attention is divided between en: and nl:). Its hard to keep track of everything thats going on. I follow Wikipedia-l and Wikitech daily, started to follow Village pump recently. Maybe the logo contest is a good example, that one is very hard to miss. It was on the announcements page as well. I agree that not every discussion that turns into a vote should be announced there or even shown prominently on the main page, but I think many people are interested in the content and layout of the Main Page (which is shown by the number of voters that did indeed find their way to your page), so maybe worth an announcement after all?

message: I'm pretty sure this page should be at Wikipedia:Canonicalization. Yes, "canonicalize" is a neologism, but it's quite common in computer programming circles. There's really no definition of "canonize" which means "to render canonical" -- it seems like a well-intentioned but fault back formation, here. "Canonize" mostly means "to recognize as a saint", and although there are some Wikipedia saints, that's not what this page seem to be about. --ESP 20:04, 6 Jan 2004 (UTC)

message: This article uses 2 different translations for "Land der Berge, Land am Strome". In the first paragraph "Land of the mountains, land on the river", in the lyrics section "Land of mountains, land by the stream". "Strom" literally translates as current, implying a strong and powerful flow of water. "Stream" is definately wrong, as in English that means something less than a river. "Land of mighty rivers" is my personal suggestion, but I am not a certified translator.
Is there any official translation that can be referenced? TiffaF (talk) 17:41, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I've changed the translation to "land by the river" since it refers to the vicinity of the land/country to the river Danube.

Talk:List of United States ambassadors

message: This whole project of listing every country's ambassadors seems pointless and impossible - stewacide 10:06 Feb 27, 2003 (UTC)
Greetings. Two points:-
# It doesn't say the lists are complete. It is similar to having a list of actors, a list of authors, or whatever. Should we get rid of them, too? I don't think many people are against the idea of having lists. Organising people into categories is a very useful method to make people easy to find.
# Making them complete is a distant aim, but not an impossible one. As long as no records of diplomats have been lost, there is no reason why the lists shouldn't eventually become complete.
But the page should have a "List of..." title, for consistency with other such lists. I'll move it. -- Oliver P. 02:31 Feb 28, 2003 (UTC)
