Talk:Pehr Henrik Nordgren

message: i know this is flawed, but at least it's up there.  this was edited from a computer translation of the german wikipedia entry for him.  Don't complain, fix!! It's better than creating a stub!--MM 20:45, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: In the last paragraph of the article about Pehr Henrik Nordgren, there is a sentence that is evidently an inaccurate translation from German: "Nordgren's style proceeds from the ... cluster technology Ligetis, refers however many further elements and can altogether than pluralistisch being designated." Clearly "Ligetis" is the possessive form of the surname of the composer Ligeti, and "pluralistisch" could be translated as "pluralistic" in English, depending on context. My German is fluent, but I have no idea what "can altogether than pluralistisch being designated" is intended to mean, hence it's impossible--at least for me--to attempt to correct it.  If I could see the original German sentence, I could probably render it into understandable English, but as it is, this sentence is incomprehensible.

Talk:Shropshire Canal

thread_title: Assessment

message: There is a suggestion that the Coalport Canal stub should be merged into this article. I am not sure why the "discuss" link leads here. Maybe the tag should be on this article, rather than the Coalport article. I suggested it, so am in favour, as the Coalport Canal was never an official name, just a local name for the end section of the Shropshire Canal. Bob1960evens (talk) 20:10, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge of Coalport Canal article

message: I am unsure how coal got from these collieries to Blist Hill. Shropshire Canals (1980) has a map which shows a long tramway connecting both to the canal at Tweedale Basin. I have just obtained "The East Shropshire Coalfields" by Ivor Brown, which has a picture of a tub boat at Halesfield (p.43) and a tub boat on a section of water transporting coal from Kemberton Mine (p.61). Was it a tramway or a canal? Bob1960evens (talk) 17:00, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Echinos

message: I do not fight edit wars, so I have not removed the Turkish name again. I would, however, like to see an explanation as to why the Turkish name is relevant. Echinos is a Pomak village where the inhabitants speak Pomak/Bulgarian (and of course Greek). I know that many of the inhabitants also speak Turkish because of their dealings with the Turkish-speaking part of the Muslim minority (and quite a few speak German as well, after having worked in Germany), but that is no reason to give the name of the village in Turkish (or German) in the lede.

Talk:Madagascan Pygmy Hippopotamus

message: I created a page at Malagasy Hippopotamus.  It does a much better job of incorporating the information here, and at Madagascan Dwarf Hippopotamus because so much of the relevant information about Malagasy Hippos applies to either species.  I'd like to redirect this page to Malagasy Hippo.  I think it's an uncontroversial merge, and if I don't hear from anyone in a couple days I'll just go ahead and do it, because it can easily be undone. --JayHenry 20:54, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

*Existing material needs reorganisation to reduce repetition
*Information on research should be expanded
*References should be expanded and converted to inline format

Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Kitia

message: That blanking interrupted the support comment I was going to post. I'll just do it here:
Support. I've opposed for giving poor answers to the questions before, but that's because the editors were deliberately being unhelpful. This user is clearly not being deliberately unhelpful (I sympathize with not being good writing about yourself, I have the same problem), and I see no reason why they would use the tools badly. And not taking it seriously is good; taking Wikipedia too seriously would be the source of all Wikistress. I have no Wikistress because I don't treat editing as a big serious responsibility, and admins who do the same thing are fine in my book. -Amarkov moo! 21:54, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Master's degree in Europe

message: Because Oxford and Cambridge do not offer MA degrees by examination, the equivalent to a part taught, part research postgraduate master's degree usually taking one or two years to complete is normally referred to as an MPhil (or sometimes MSt) degree in those universities. Research-only master's degrees (normally taking two years) may be referred instead as an MLitt (in the arts and humanities) or, more rarely, an MSc in the sciences. Also, first-year PhD students at Oxbridge are not normally enrolled as master's students, but rather as "probationary students". After a formal research evaluation taking place at the end of the first academic year, they are promoted to formal PhD candidacy or downgraded to research master's student status instead. 161.24.19.82 21:15, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The section of the master degree's in the Netehrlands contain too much off-topic items, such as a whole part about the bachelor and a part about the doctorate, including a strange PDEng, which is not recognized as a real doctor degree at all!

thread_title: Variation of fees diagram

message: I don't think the German vocational qualification "Meister" has to be mentioned in this article (about 1/3 of the section about Germany!). It's a vocational qualification - not a "degree" - that has really nothing to do with higher or university education or scientific/academic work. There is no mentioning of "master craftsman" (which is the literal translation of "meister") in the UK degree section either, so I think the Meister "degree" should be deleted--89.51.18.43 (talk) 17:58, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  German "Meister degree" 

message: In many german universities the Diplom Degree is given after 4 years of study plus realizing a Diplom Thesis. So it is frequently more like a Bachelor´s Degree, than a Master Degree.

Talk:Greyhawk: The Adventure Begins

message: Hello Greyhawk fans. I have spent the better part of my day working on the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer article.  It occurs to me that it might better if it was merged into the World of Greyhawk Fantasy Game Setting.
I figure while I am at it I will also merge in Greyhawk Adventures, From the Ashes (Dungeons & Dragons) and Greyhawk: The Adventure Begins articles into the World of Greyhawk Fantasy Game Setting as well.
There is a method to my madness here.
By themselves these articles are lacking in sources that point to their notability, but together they present a much stronger article.  Plus each product is in a sense an update of the product before it. So there is the continuity in one article.  There is also precedent for this with the Player’s Handbook, all editions are in one article.  Web Warlock (talk) 18:59, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Crimen injuria

message: Note that this article was deleted in May 2007 under WP:PROD. The reason given was "Wikipedia is not a dictionary." At the time, since the article consisted of nothing more than a one-line definition, this probably seemed justified. However, this is an interesting and noteworthy topic, being a class of crime applied to numerous situations, and also by being a crime unique to South African law. I hope that my start to the article has shown that there is more than just a legal term here, and that the article can grow into something larger and more informative.

thread_title: Untitled

message: I'm removing the edit that credits the obituary for Al Hibbler, which reads, "Ellington wrote Do Nothin' Til You Hear From Me as a special number for Mr. Hibbler, and it became one of the band's hits." This assertion that the song was written for the singer contradicts the statement in the song's article here that says that it "originated as a 1940 instrumental ("Concerto for Cootie") that was designed to highlight the playing of Ellington's lead trumpeter, Cootie Williams." The Jazz Standards.com page for the song currently lists Hibbler as the vocalist for the Ellington rendition, but they credit the same book that I'm looking at, Joel Whitburn's Pop Memories, 1890-1954, which lists the number 10 hit from 1944 with a capital I after the title to indicate that it's an instrumental and catalog number 20-1547. You can see that number on the label of the 78 that's played in this YouTube clip, which is an instrumental recording. Danaphile (talk) 16:49, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Algebra Project

message: Some of the wording in the history section is not in an encyclopedic tone and should be rewritten. For example the phrase "born out of one parent's concern" seems unusually dramatic for an encyclopedia. Also, the sentence beginning "In 1982, Bob Moses was invited by Mary Lou Mehrling..." seems like an unnecessary detail and adds a narrative-like quality to the text. Wikipedia articles should give the facts and let them speak for themselves rather than rely on added color and dramatic details.--RDBury (talk) 18:53, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

message: "He was corrupt" is a very serious allegation to make. I believe more evidence is required than Ray Whitord's interview.
"He wasn't corrupt" is a very serious allegation to make against any police commissioner.  One would want to have incontrovertible
proof before one made such a statement.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.208.226.40 (talk) 13:17, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Bischof is such a controversial and written-about figure that I don't think "His early career was marked with a high rate of success, yet the appointment of 'the Big Fella' as Police Commissioner was viewed at the time as a politically sensitive and partisan appointment" is something we should remotely be stating as fact. Specifically, it is fairly seriously contradicted by Matthew Condon's far more in-depth and well-researched Three Crooked Kings, which focuses heavily on Bischof's career and covers his appointment in great detail. Condon explains both very thoroughly why Bischof's appointment was seen as politically sensitive and partisan, and this quote carries some implications about both the motivations for the opposition and the true nature of Bischof's pre-Commissioner career that I don't think can be borne out against Condon's research. I don't mind it going in somewhere as the opinion of the academic who wrote the ADB article, with appropriate context, but it can in absolutely no way be said to be undisputed fact.
