message: Not surprisingly, this page attracts a fair amount of linkspam from ecard and other card purveyors. I added an External Links section for historical archives and other material that does not relate directly to the article, but are relevant to the topic. I would suggest that noncommercial ecard and other sites are only worthy of links if they would significantly enhance the reader's understanding of past history or current trends in Christmas cards.

thread_title:  Commercial and Personal Websites 

message: I've heard that the idea we have in Britain of Christmas being a time of snow was established during Victorian times, when the cards first became popular, and in writings by Dickens, was due to unusually cold weather at that time due to the eruption of a large volcano (Krakatoa?). In normal times, snow is quite rare on Christmas day in England, at least. Another thing I've heard is that this was due to Christmas being held in what we would now call January, prior to the change to the modern calendar. 78.147.242.123 (talk) 21:47, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Lothlorien

message: There are a couple of other lothloriens out there (three housing cooperatives) Lothlorien Hall and one that doesn't have a name yet, but is/will be attached to the Madison Community Cooperative page.  It also sounded like the lothlorien hall name is inaccurate, and will be competing with other co-ops calle lothlorien anyways.  Anyone have a suggestion on what to do with this?  I'm new, so I don't want to mess up article naming conventions too bad... was thinking of doing a disambiguation page for Lothlorien, but there is also Lothlorien (cooperative) with a redirect to the lothlorien hall...

Talk:Shmuel Schneersohn

message: Doesn't he have a surname? -- Zoe
The surnames are never used and no-one in the circles of Chabad Lubavitch or Hasidic Judaism or amongst Jewish Orthodox people, refers or knows them by their surnames. But if you do some deeper research some did have "family names" that often changed and varied in pronounciation. I am relying on biographies published by the Lubavitchers and this is how the names are always used. Except in the case of the last two Rebbes; one used Schneersohn (with an "h" at the end} , and his son-in-law used Schneerson (without an "h" ).IZAK

thread_title:  Multiplication property 

message: As an educated electrical engineer, mathematician, and private instructor, I can tell you there is nothing more infuriating than z transform tables wasting our time expressed in terms of a variable z^(-1). Writing z^(-1) over and over again is a maddening waste of time. These tables need to be rewritten with absolutely no inverse powers of z. This will provide for very rapid solutions of discrete financial mathematics problems to pay off all world debt ending debt slavery. At the very least, the very top of the table should express the inverse transform of 1/(z-B) for different values of B according to the convergence of the transform.
Long story short, z-transform tables waste your time by beating around the bush with Mousetrap board game type complexities which are unnecessary.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jakewayd (talk • contribs) 22:55, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

message: In Ibiza they speak Mallorquin and not Catalan, There are no Catalan-speaking countries. Catalonia were a few counties in the past who joined the Aragon crown for economic reasons. But there was a kingdom on the islands, just like in Valencia. Enough of Catalan propaganda. And by the way I am going to ask for the protection of the article because from what I see the IP that is dedicated to spreading propaganda comes from Catalonia itself. Enough already. I'm from Ibiza and I'm neither Catalan nor do I want to be. Majorcan is spoken here, but everyone speaks Spanish. Catalonia never had a kingdom or flag, the flag it uses is that of the crown of Aragon without royal distinctions. I do not know what the Catalan independentistas want but they already have the president of their autonomous community being a fugitive from justice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.165.48.6 (talk • contribs) 22:05, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

thread_title: June Whitfield role as mother

message: I see no evidence of this. The series is available on BBC catch up and all of the location scenes that I saw from a random sampling of episodes was shot on 576i video. It's possible the previous editor saw the show on Netflix, who de-interlace all their material to 25p making the difference between film and video footage difficult to discern. There's no source I can find (and none is used) to support the claim the location shoots were done on film, therefore the default should be that the whole series was shot on video as was usual practice in the 90s.

Talk:History of South Africa

message: == Quality Improvement - This article needs YOU! South African Wars (1879–1915)'
The article in its current form has become a mess. The introduction section is particularly problematic containing numerous issues, including: typos, information irrelevant to a hat note section, long run on sentences with endless repetition of the same facts, subtle vandalism, and blatant bias. The rest of the article is a better but many of the same problems still occur. This is the result of many small edits through the years without much work on the article as a whole. I honestly think the quality of the article was better a few years ago than it is now.
I will begin cleaning up soon but I would like to ask other Wikipedians to help improve and actively maintain the quality of the article. This is one of the most important articles on South Africa, and probably the most important on South African history so it is vital that we keep it to the highest quality. Right now, I am afraid it does not come close to that standard. Let us look at this article globally and try to improve the article to a consistent quality that we can be proud of.
