Talk:Voros McCracken

message: Information requested:  As a "biographical" entry, this article would be helped if it included a bit more about McCracken's background.  Minimally, place and date of birth, schooling, or other biographical "facts."  Perhaps information about other works, contributions by McCracken hopefully with citations provided.  Thank you. --Mack2 14:24, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Nechirvan Barzani

message: Dear all,
It is clear to me that there are significant issues regarding the neutrality of this article. I would encourage you all to read the section of the article about his time as President of the KRG. It is immensely biased towards him and reads more like a hagiography than a piece of meaningful analysis or even of accurate description. It describes him more as a tribute would, and completely ignores the continuing issues faced by the KRG under the duopoly and, indeed, under the KDP regarding human rights, corruption, state violence, and so on. It is also severely lacking in the KDP's role toward the KDP-PKK conflict that has intensified in the last year + the KDP's co-operation with Turkey under Nechirvan's Presidency.
I highly encourage a Npov notice is put on the article and that the section is either heavily edited or rewritten entirely.
I encourage discussion on this matter.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.205.21.39 (talk) 14:50, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

message: This article does not need to be split.  It's not that long and and the other stations are not notable to warrant their own article given that they simulcast the parent station.

Talk:WHVW

message: This article is an interesting chronology of a unique radio station, but it contains no reliable source citations to back up its facts.  There are statements of belief about the motivation of people during the history of the station, and comparison to other stations without any evidence.  It would be a much stronger article with some verifiable sources... (in general, Wikipedia does not consider blogs to be a reliable source).StreamingRadioGuide 07:50, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Hans Bronsart von Schellendorff

message: Schellendorff? Every library reference I know gives Bronsart or Bronsart von Schellendorf for him and his relatives (some of whom were also famous enough - a German WW1 general and author, for example), if I remember!  The change seems hastily made. Will look into this later. (Edit: inserting the r, but still doesn't seem right ;) ) Schissel | Sound the Note! 14:38, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I agree - the only references to Bronsart von Schellendorf that I can find spell it thus, with one f. My fear is that by spelling it with a double-f, people won't find it. Someone should make a redirect page to stop this happening. 
I've added some information on his compositions, and a shameless plug for Michael Ponti's recording.

replies: text: According to the RN Museum it's completely random - it's not the only category which isn't "logical", albeit much the most high-profile. As has been said, both A and C were already taken. Other theories I've seen are that "aircraft carrier" has 5 "R"'s, and that if you couldn't use "A" as the auxiliaries had taken that, and you couldn't use "I" for the confusion with "1", then "R" was the next available letter of "aircraft carrier". But these smack of folk etymologies - I'd take the RN Museum's word for it. 82.31.18.156 (talk) 03:08, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2008 

message: I recently saw a very brief shot in a video of a ship bearing the number 'U' 56 or 58 (it wasn't that clear). I came to this article hoping to discover the ship's identity. Finding out the 'U' was pretty straight forward (it was a sloop in WW II), but I was flummoxed by the number.
Is this the right place to be or am I off the trail? Is a list of individual vessels required or would it be impractical? RASAM (talk) 12:15, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Coming late(!) to this but the general article is usually not the right place for lists of these kinds of thing. US hull numbers are pretty well catered for as redirects, but it's a lot spottier for other navies. But Google is your friend - in this case either HMS Enchantress (L56) or HMS Hart (U58), the former lacked a stern gun as she was built pre-WWII. Or there's the book I mention below....

message: Few problems with subcategories. The subcategory of "musician" includes only two people, though it's clear that the list contains a great many more.

Talk:Temporal anti-aliasing

message: Erroneous definition, incorrect stated causes & solutions, inaccurate/irrelevant examples -- extremely misleading overall.
* TXAA is the trade name of a specific implementation, not a generic name (think Kleenex vs. tissues)
* throughout the article, temporal anti-aliasing is being confused with motion blur (which are absolutely not the same thing)
* the article barely touches the real definition / substance of the term being defined
I am submitting this dispute as a warning to readers.

thread_title: Games

message: The article makes poor attributions for Temporal Anti-Aliasing, and doesn't really discuss the technique in any technical detail.
Just as an example that's not oft-discussed, Temporal Anti-Aliasing is one of the oldest, and likely the oldest effectively used Anti-Aliasing techniques in computer graphics due to memory limitations at the time of it's creation making naive approaches such as raw Supersample Anti-Aliasing infeasible. 
I personally have not been able to track down the exact source of the technique, but it's been in use in computer graphics since at least the mid 1980s going by Computer Graphics Principles and Practice, 2nd Edition. Possibly even slightly earlier into the late 70s if discussions with older colleagues who knew Andy van Dam and Randy Pausch are to be believed.
I would begin by referencing CGPP 2nd edition first (the third edition changed a dramatic amount of content), then moving forward from there. This process may also require some updating of the head Anti-Aliasing article. Tmlaw01 (talk) 14:51, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd recommend reverting the article to the diff prior to this edit.

:I can't vouch for the validity of the information on that particular site, but keep in mind that the rate of erosion can vary by several orders of magnitude depending on the properties of the exposed layers.
