Talk:New Fire ceremony

message: I am not a native speaker of English and I have a question about the meaning of "fire drill" in this article. It is used like it is some kind of object, like in "a fire drill was placed on his chest" but the only meaning I find in dictionaries is some exercise in putting out fires which doesn't make sense. Can someone help me or maybe change the article to make it more understandable?

Talk:Persona 3

message: There is a book trilogy, Midnighters by Scott Westerfeld, which has a very similar premise and setting, and first came out in 2004, two years before P3 was released. Are they possibly related, perhaps as inspiration, and should this be mentioned anywhere in the article?
A very brief summary of the book setting: In a small town, there is an extra hour at midnight, called the Blue Hour or Midnight Hour, where electricity, etc. doesn't work, and only a few individuals, who were born at precisely midnight, can still move around even though everyone else is frozen. The Blue hour is populated by Darklings who prey on humans, and each of the awake-people has a special Power that helps them work together to stave off the monsters. 128.114.255.213 (talk) 23:09, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

message: Up until 24 August 2023, this article used the box art from the original Japanese version, but now uses that of the original North American release. There does not appear to be any reasoning given for this change, and I propose reverting back to the Japanese cover art.
Firstly, the change was unnecessary, and as demonstrated by articles like Ico, Silent Hill 3, TimeSplitters 2, Jet Set Radio, and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, there is no strict adherence to North American box art on Wikipedia.
Secondly, it was agreed in 2018 to move this article from "Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3" to simply "Persona 3"; the Japanese box art is more consistent with this nomenclature as it lacks the SMT prefix.
Thirdly,  it would complement the Persona 3 Reload article and better convey it to readers as a remake, since the cover art for Reload is based on the Japanese PS2 version's box art. 675930s (talk) 10:45, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

message: I have not made any changes to the actual article, but I do have additional input regarding wood plastic composite. I have been in the WPC industry for more than 25 years, and have spoken about this topic in both Asia and Europe in the past. I believe the article is missing a few other points that I would like to bring up (I did not make any changes as I am involved with a company that manufactures WPC products, and I did not want to have the appearance of a commercial or conflict of interest. Wood Plastic Composites (WPC) has a growing custom use segment, made possible by custom extrusion. The WPC materials can be co-extruded, or even tri-extruded to to provide dark color cap-stock options, as well as to add additional functionality to the part (ex: flexible fingers for gripping or sealing. Another important portion of the technology that is not currently discussed is the ability of some WPC products to be painted or stained. Articles about this technology can be found online at Plastics Machinery Magazine http://www.plasticsmachinerymagazine.com/technology/right-tooling-machinery-keep-formtech-competitive-in-wpc-profile-extrusion.html,Plastics News http://www.plasticsnews.com/article/19970929/NEWS/309299979/wood-composites-make-show-at-meeting, as well as information on the Formtech website www.formtech.com such as a case study about products used a a door surround http://www.formtech.com/case-studies/wpc-surround-system/.

Talk:Concept mining

message: Taxonomic classification is not the same thing as concept mining. 
Although Concept Mining can be used for taxonomic classification, i.e. looking at a collection of documents, and inferring which taxonomic class they belong to, such taxonomies are normally constructed for a particular task, for instance a particular domain of medicine, whereas concept mining is concerned with generating analyses of greneral purpose documents based on the conceptual relationships in common speech. The uses of this analysis extend far beyond the librarianship applications of taxonomic classification. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Scientio (talk • contribs) 15:21, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. Concept mining involves what data you look at when you're trying to understand a document's content (mapping words to concepts instead of using word counts directly) while taxonomic classification involves what you do with your understanding (placing documents into a predetermined tree, rather than grouping them into unhierarchical clusters, ranking them for relevance, or whatever else). The two concepts seem different enough that I see no justification for a merge. —David Eppstein 16:57, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I see your distinction. But if your talking about placing documents into a predetermined tree I think this is exactly concept mining, or at least Text classification, mapping of documents to concepts, which already exists in some given hierarchy, and ranking them for relevance, is more concept mining than taxonomic classification. From the definition of taxonomic classification, it sounds like it's the act of building the taxonomy. Roee 00:07, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I thought "concept mining" was an associated concept for computer science?  Yes, taxonomic classification is a hierarchical method of arrangement or classification but is a broad term not specific to computer science terminologies with many applications from biology to epistemology ... Stevenmitchell 00:47, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

message: The definition in the first paragraph seems lacking.  It seems to be talking about analyzing data in documents based on some sort of "concept map" (perhaps akin to Wordnet).  i.e. for use in anti-plagiarism, documents would be compared based on "concepts" rather than exact words.  true?
