Talk:Canadian Cancer Society

message: Hi,
I was wondering if it would be possible to update the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) logo? The logo that is currently posted on this page is no longer being used by CCS. I'm unable to upload the correct logo. If you can please email me at marketing@cancer.ca, I will provide you with the correct one.
Thank you,

thread_title: Updating the Canadian Cancer Society logo

message: Here are some things I plan to improve, and hope others will to (maybe before I get a chance):
*This article is still far to much of a promotioinal ad for this group.  The Society may be a wonderful group, that deserves support, but as Wikipedia can't endorse such a position in the article.
*There's been reported controvsy, about the use of money.  Some have criticized this group for spending money on political lobbying, when the money was raised for research/education.  Both sides need to be shown.
*Independent sources, such as government licensing, news reports, should be cited to report and verify how much effort is put in the different areas.
*Critics should be cited, but in an impartial NPOV manner.  For instance, even though I personally dislike the tobacco lobby, I'm sure they would contest what's "educational", and what's "political"; and this article should be fair.
*Generally, this article should talk about the organization actually does, and not just what what it's goals are.  Most organizations have lofty goals, what counts is what they've verifiably done.  Now I think they have in fact, verifiable done what they claim, but that verification is not in the article.  A single link to a non-government web site (their own), does not consitute WP:Verifiability.

Talk:Fort Dallas

message: Fort Dallas was at the mouth of the Miami River, near Biscayne Bay. Lummus Park is at least a mile upriver. There is a Fort Dallas Park, it is a completely separate place, a mile away from Lummus Park, downtown on the Miami River between the Brickell Ave and S. Miami Ave bridges. The only connection is that a building from Fort Dallas (barracks) was moved upriver to Lummus Park well after the Fort was closed. Why does Fort Dallas link to Lummus Park? 1305cj (talk) 00:00, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

message: Since there is a page for Lummus Park, and Lummus Park is not the site of the original Fort Dallas, I propose removing all mention of Lummus Park from this page. It's very confusing trying to find something about Fort Dallas or Fort Dallas Park (the site of the Flagler Workers House, on the Riverwalk east of the S. Miami Ave bridge) and being directed to Lummus Park. Pictures on Fort Dallas page should be of the original location of the buildings not where one may have been moved to. 1305cj (talk) 15:32, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Smirting

message: * I don't get it... they're flirting outside the public place (going outside in public where smoking is prohibited), or outside the public place within which smoking is prohibited?  The grammar is confusing.  Also I'm not sure what this has to do either with smoking, except for the flirting being tangential to where it's banned. -Timvasquez 04:01, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: It's pretty simple.  Smokers congregate outside places where smoking is banned - I'd say it was at least as common outside workplaces as it is outside places like bars and restaurants.  Because they are forced to stand outside together, they flirt with each other.  They offer each other cigarettes and lights.  Together, they feel persecuted, and they can bond with each other.  So the fact of them being smokers is integral to the flirting. Richardrj 14:51, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Cat's cradle

message: I noted that the Oxford English Dictionary disputes the 'cratch-cradle' derivation. 
Oxford gives this etymology:
:Origin probably fanciful: the guess that it ‘may have been’ cratch-cradle is not founded on facts. (Second Edition 1989)
Since Oxford states it "is not founded on facts", should we be advocating an etymology it implies is false and nothing more than conjecture?  Can anyone give a reliable source to counter Oxford's claim?

message: I removed the below
:The game of cat's cradle is featured as a motif in Kurt Vonnegut's 1963 novel Cat's Cradle. Early in the book, we learn that Felix Hoenikker, fictional "Father of the Atomic Bomb" was playing cat's cradle when Hiroshima was destroyed. The game is later referred to by Newt Hoenikker, Felix's dwarf son, who describes the game by saying "No damn cat, and no damn Cradle"; thus expressing his view that the concepts and ideals taught by all human parents to their children are arbitrary conventions, and that life itself is essentially meaningless.
:Felix uses the game as a metaphor.  What we are really looking at is a meaningless piece of string, but in the game of cat's cradle we are choosing to see grand and complex objects that are not really there.

replies: text: Just to clarify a bit more ... you'll notice that even the official website writes Ome, which is wrong. Pretty much everywhere that doesn't use wapuro style spells it that way, so you could argue that it's universal and should just be left that way. In reality quite a few compounds are very commonly spelt wrong, for example sho, which is spelled syo about 60% of the time in advertising and names etc. but ōme and oume have a distinct difference in pronounciation (due to the pronounced /u/) and thus they should be spelled correctly.  freshgavin TALK   05:08, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Whilst this band contains some elements of Metalcore, their extensive catalogue is a prime example of Southern Metal more so than Metalcore.
Please sign your posts. The new album is very Metalcore as is a lot of their work. Also, we should mention their current tour with Bring Me The Horizon and Architects (UK).
: They were a different type of metalcore to the most popular melodeath with breakdowns type that most people now associate with the style, though maybe better generally described as a technical/chaotic hardcore band with metallic and southern riffs than a metalcore band in the style of Converge though.

Talk:List of large cardinal properties

thread_title: Note on history of this page

message: The consistency strength of zero-dagger is strictly between the existence of one measurable cardinal and the existence of two measurable cardinals. I've modified the list to reflect this. But now of course it's not strictly a list of large cardinal properties anymore; more a list of large cardinal axioms. We should figure out what to do about this. It's the axioms that are linearly ordered by consistency strength. But it's the properties that correspond to articles we want to link to. What's more important, the ordering or the links? We need to decide, or else figure out how to reword things. (Note that this problem is not by any means unique to zero-dagger; for example the λ-supercompact and λ-extendible cardinals interleave, for different values of λ and similarly for n-huge and n-superstrong.) --Trovatore 00:27, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: By the way, apparently it's open (or was open in 2000) whether the consistency strength of the existence of a supercompact is strictly above that of a strong compact. See The Bulletin of Symbolic Logic 6(1):89 (March 2000). --Trovatore 01:20, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Kink (medicine)

message: The whole reason I seperated the article was that while wikipedia isn't filtered for children many might be offended when they look for a (relatively) safe term and find a sexual article. It also might be offensive for the link to be labled as such. Chooserr
:Yeah, I gathered it was something like that.  I disagree that Wikipedia should censor encyclopedic sexual content; it's an encyclopedia, and sex, including kinky sex, exists in the world.  I especially disagree with disguising links to potentially offensive content - surely that won't prevent a child from clicking on it, and it's just misleading and confusing for everyone.  Saying "for non-normative sexual behavior, see Kink (sexual)" is very clear, and anyone who would be offended by reading about something like that can choose not to click on the link.  Labelling it unclearly is just asking for someone who doesn't want to read it to find it by accident.  As for the very idea of taking questionable steps to "protect" children, please read the policy Wikipedia is not censored for the protection of minors. -GTBacchus 21:55, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Look, I'm not trying to be pushy or something - I just don't see how departing from the standard form of disambiguation message is going to prevent anyone getting offended - more likely to surprise someone who clicks on a link not knowing what to expect...  If you change it again, I won't revert, but someone eventually will, because there's people around here who take it upon themselves to standardize disambiguation messages, and disclaimers are not well-liked by the Wikipedia community, from what I've seen.  Check out the disambiguation page Prince Albert - one of the pages it points to is a male genital piercing, with a big, top-of-the-page picture of a penis, which is at least as offensive as a kink, I guess, but there's no effort to disguise what's behind that link.  Best thing is to call a genital piercing a genital piercing, and to call a non-normative sexual behavior a non-normative sexual behavior, then people who are not interested know exactly how to avoid it; at least that's the way I see it. -GTBacchus 06:01, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Like New Zealand, the Chatham Islands issued New Zealand postal notes. There was one post office that was issuing postal notes - Waitangi, Chatham Islands. It is not yet known when New Zealand postal notes began to be issued, but the last date of issue is 31 July 1986. The Chatham Islands' issues of postal notes are very sought after by collectors of the postal orders of the Commonwealth of Nations.
Like New Zealand, British postal orders were issued at the post office at Waitangi. It is also not yet known when British postal orders were introduced into the Chatham Islands, but the last possible date can be narrowed down to the nearest month - March 1985. The issue of British postal orders ceased due to the scrapping of foreign exchange controls by the New Zealand Finance Minister, Roger Douglas.
