thread_title:  Let's propose (non-automatic, of course) redirection to vim, and vice verca 

message: The section is large, and it has multiple cites. There are multiple problems, however: 
* The first cite no longer exists; even archive.org has no copy (though I can't say that with certainty; for some reason archive.org scans the page endlessly, without results; I only did a random sampling)
* Few of the sources could be characterized as reliable. Most of them link to EmacsWiki. A lovely site, but wiki's are user-generated content, and only very rarely acceptable as a reliable source.
* Last, and most important imho, is that wikipedia is not a "howto" site. Most of the entries are prescriptive; that's not what the article is here for.
I would propose just removing the entire section. Lest there be any misunderstanding, I use emacs every day, and have done so since the 1980's. It's my editor of choice. I have suffered emacs pinky at times. But it's not such an enormous issue that we need a nearly entirely anecdotal section dedicated to it.  cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 20:49, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Although it's in the book it seems to be best known from Sean Bean's acting performance, and can be reliably cited as such, so the film section is the target if this article is the right place. I should point out that it might make more sense at Sean Bean, all the same, which would mean moving it and changing the redirect.

It had no hard disk driver because the IBM PC had no hard disk, and that is the machine it was written for.  According to the WP CP/M-86 article, it was released in January, 1982.

thread_title: CPM-86 for the Displaywriter

message: Reading the text as of today, the impression given is that CP/M-86 was available first on the IBM PC, then on an Apricot and a few Siemens machines.
It was actually available for quite a few 808x machines of different architecture, and for a couple of years deciding on CP/M-86 or MS-DOS was a choice that had to be made for any machine. I can't quote details; maybe somebody who can will cancel the impression that the IBM was the only machine in contention? (Or tell me that I'm wrong...)By the way, later DR operating systems, while compatible with MS-DOS, would run CP/M-86 programs and supported the CD/M-86 function calls as well as the MD-DSO ones. Multi-tasking was better writing programs using CP/M-86 techniques. Pol098 (talk) 17:44, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Top 40 (radio format)

message: I'm not familiar with the use of the term "Top 40" to describe a radio format, so I've put the meaning of a singles chart at the top of the article. Most of the pages which link to the Top 40 article are actually talking about either the UK Top 40 or the US Top 40, rather than about a radio format, so those links should be changed as soon as there are individual articles on those two subjects. -- Oliver PEREIRA 22:21 Jan 17, 2003 (UTC)
:Sure.  As a term, the list may be more common now than the radio format.  I was just tired of putting top 40 in articles and having it come up red.  I do think the radio format was first though.  Having 40 songs in rotation is just about the right number.  I remember some Top 30 stations and they just didn't make it.  Too repetitive even for pop radio.   On the other hand, I noticed the same thing about the links that you did, and stopped making them.  I can't quite imagine the content of the US Top 40 and UK Top 40 articles.  I suppose they could be lists of annual top 40 lists.   The radio format is important for noting all the wack songs that have made it.  The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is not what you usually think of as a Top 40 group, but because of the radio rules, there it was, mixing it up with the pop bands.  Ortolan88
There's some sorting out needed here. there's an articel Hit parade which pop chart is redirected to and then music charts is redirected here. There should be one main article about the history, method etc. of popular music charts and others about specific angles e.g. the radio play thing. Btljs 16:23, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I proposed merging this article with Contemporary hit radio. Both formats (and variations such as rhythmic, adult top 40, etc.) are basically the same.

Talk:Canvas work

message: The kitty is adorable!  Do you have a copy of the pattern?
I would strongly suggest that this article is merged with Needlepoint. The two are often used as synonyms, and i really wouldn't know how to write two clearly separated articles. The current stubs seem to talk about the same form of embroidery anyway. I would prefer needlepoint as article name, because this is often used in a broader sense than canvas work. We already have a good article on Berlin wool work, and maybe there will other separate articles about other distinct styles of needlepoint. If no one disagrees within a month, i'll simply do the merge. Please comment here. Thanks Lady Tenar 23:20, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Maarten Tromp

message: The article says this:
"In 1633 Tromp lead the Dutch fleet that sailed to meet the Spanish fleet under Antonio de Oquendo. They met near Dunkirk, but the meeting was actually a trap. England and France, who were ostensibly allies of the Dutch, had joined Spain in a secret alliance. Oquendo deliberately aimed to hit the sails and rigging of the Dutch ships, while the English and French ships that accompanied Tromp attacked his ships from the rear once they were engaged with the Spanish. A handful of Dutch ships, including Tromp, were able to escape, and Tromp led them to the South American port of Recife, which was then held by the Dutch West India Company.
"Realizing that Recife had become untenable, be eventually persuaded the colonists to abandon it and evacuate to Saint Eustatia. This evacuation was completed by September of 1634."
It appears to me that the historical account has been conflated with the 
fictional account in the alternative history novel "1633" of Eric Flint, which depicts exactly such a battle in the year 1633. The fact that Eric Flint was extremely meticulous and clever in creating an alternative history which seems to flow organically from actual events leading up to it does not imply at all that what is in his books depicts actual history. The genre is after all called "alternative history" for very good reasons. 
I, by the way, am an avid reader of the "1632" series of Eric Flint, and I came to this article on Maarten Tromp because that series had whetted my interest, and I wanted to see what he had actually done in real life, in real history. And I found the above-quoted excerpt, which reflects a battle and its aftermath which Eric Flint himself described as fiction in the novel "1633."
I suspect that the above-quoted excerpt from the article needs a rigorous fact-checking, which I unfortunately am not able to do. I hope that someone else has time to do that job.

They may indicate that code is to do with a subject that is technical with respect to computer science itself - one might see them in comments on code relating to compilers or operating systems, but not in code relating to end user interfaces or business-level logic.
