Talk:Hick's law

message: You may find it helpful while reading or editing articles to look at a bibliography of  Intelligence Citations, posted for the use of all Wikipedians who have occasion to edit articles on human intelligence or psychology and related issues. I happen to have circulating access to a huge academic research library at a university with an active research program in these issues (and to another library that is one of the ten largest public library systems in the United States) and have been researching these issues since 1989. You are welcome to use these citations for your own research. You can help other Wikipedians by  suggesting new sources through comments on that page. It will be extremely helpful for articles on psychology to edit them according to the  Wikipedia standards for reliable sources for medicine-related articles, as it is important to verify articles on these issues as well as possible. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 21:14, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Intelligence and psychology citations bibliography for updating this and other articles

message: The article states:
\text{Reaction Time} = \text{Movement Time} + \frac{\log_{2}(n)}{\text{Processing Speed}} 
where n is the number of choices. The time it takes to come to a decision is:
\text{Processing Speed} \cdot \log_2(n) 
It seems to me, from the context, that the last line should be log(n) divided by Processing Speed, not log(n) multiplied by Processing Speed.

thread_title:  Iceland is divided in fenced off areas 

message: In my mind, the only authoritative source on official English names for these regions is Statistics Iceland, they use the names:
*Capital region
*Southwest
*West
*Westfjords
*Northwest
*Northeast
*East
*South
I propose using these on Wikipedia rather than the current names that are unofficial translations by users. For disambiguation I also propose adding "region" with a lower-case R to the names and Iceland in parentheses if necessary. --Bjarki (talk) 09:33, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Erhard Raus

message: These claims:
During the war in the east he was one of the most competent and creative General to serve in the east.
During his command of the German 6th Panzer Division he achieved the impossible and led the way to Leningrad, Moscow and the rescue attempt to relieve the entrapped German 6th Army at Stalingrad, only to have the objective snatched away from him by Hitler, who would divert his force away at the critical time when all three objectives could of been taken. Preventing the siege of Leningrad, the withdrawal of Moscow and the attempt to rescue the 6th Army.
His achievements go mostly unrecognised because of the decision of the high command to pull him out of action when he could have achieved his objective and claimed at least minor fame for himself.
seem more than a bit far-fetched. Is there a reliable source for this? If not, I'll be deleting it. --Hongooi 07:49, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Most competent and creative? 

message: Hi all, i have started to update this article.
I have just updated it so it now has a bit more info about him, this includes brief information on him during WW1, what he did pre war, commands his had during the beginning of WW2 and his exploits up until the 6th Panzer Division was pulled off the line outside Leningrad during 1941.
I will hopefully be able to finish off editing this tomorrow, throwing in more info on what he got up to during the war, his opinions etc as well as updating his awards etc.
Although hopefully you can all chime in and we can make this allot better then it was, which seemed to be a tad over the top about how great he was etc.

thread_title:  Updates 

message: Raus appears to be the primary author described in the Center for Military History's 1951 publication 104-1, Military Improvisations During the Russian Campaign.  The Preface reads: 
This study was prepared for the Historical Division, European Command, by a group of former German generals and general staff officers. The names of the contributors are not announced at this time. The principal author, who by the end of the war had attained the rank of full general (Generaloberst), served on the Eastern Front throughout the Russian campaign and the subsequent retreat into the northern plains of Germany. He was successively commander of an infantry brigade, of a panzer division from November 1941 to February 1943, and of two different corps in the battles for Kharkov and Belgorod during 1943. Appointed commander of a panzer army on 1 December 1943, he participated in the withdrawal in the south until the Germans reached the Carpathians. In August 1944 he was transferred to Army Group Center, and his last assignment was with Army Group Weichsel. During this final phase of his military career he played an important part in the retreat from Lithuania, East Prussia, and Pomerania.  
This title appears to be closely related to, but perhaps separate from, some of Raus' acknowledged works. Sofa King (talk) 04:18, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

message: I just went through the history to look at what has been changed - I like the new version even better, although I did just slightly change the formating of the "see also" statements so they are more of a reference at the end of a section rather than seeming like a link to a main article.

thread_title:  Comments on the edits 

message: I noticed that this page has acquired a historical status. Basically, I've tried to affect some positive changes to what I consider to be a poorly written and often ill conceived guideline. While I've had some really great and critical support for my efforts, there has been a core of people who prefer to retain a status quo that I doubt will actually influence people on Wikipedia to write better articles. 
As such, I am abandoning my efforts to change the policy - someone can put this up as an article for deletion. I've ceased to care and rather than continuing to write increasingly embittered monologues, I instead will try to walk (limp?) away with a modicum of style.
I've saved a copy of this draft for my own records, and I might try again in a year or two (although I doubt it), or should someone contact me for a copy.

thread_title:  Calling "Rita" a GIRL? 

message: Should one of very few paragraphs in this article really be entirely devoted to whether the film fucked up its definition of assonance?
:::The paragraph to which you refer appears to have been deleted. That said, I would argue that the inclusion of it had merit, given how it is often quoted in relation to the film, and in many ways, how it defines one of its central themes: working-class frankness v. Ivory Tower pretension. "Assonance is getting the rhyme wrong" assumed mainstream cultural significance decades after the film was shot. It is often quoted, still. Please don't curse. These pages are bad enough.  Hanoi Road (talk) 02:30, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Undue weight 

message: I have removed the reference/link to 'Liverpudlian'. Nowhere in the film is this stated, or even implied. Rita speaks with an accent from roughly that area, but it could well be outside of Liverpool. Furthermore, it is possible that she moved from Liverpool to her present city. Other actors in the film (Godfrey Quigley, as her father, for example) speak with approximate northern accents, though not specifically Scouse. This is all further complicated by the fact that the film was shot entirely in Dublin, so there are no landmarks to support the case for Liverpool. Sources?

Talk:Parti de la démocratie socialiste

message: While editors may be anxious to move this article to an English language form of the name, please note that it is incorrect to do so:
Wikipedia:Naming_conventions says 
:Use the most easily recognized name: Generally, article naming should prefer what the greatest number of English speakers would most easily recognize, with a reasonable minimum of ambiguity, while at the same time making linking to those articles easy and second nature.... Wikipedia determines the recognizability of a name by seeing what verifiable reliable sources in English call the subject.
:Use common names of persons and things: Convention: Except where other accepted Wikipedia naming conventions give a different indication, use the most common name of a person or thing that does not conflict with the names of other people or things; use the naming conflict guideline when there is a conflict. Where articles have descriptive names, the given name must be neutrally worded and must not carry POV implications.
:Use English words: Convention: Name your pages in English and place the native transliteration on the first line of the article, unless the native form is more commonly recognized by readers than the English form. The choice between anglicized and native spellings should follow English usage (e.g., Besançon, Søren Kierkegaard and Göttingen, but Nuremberg, delicatessen, and Florence). Often this will be the local version, as with Madrid. Sometimes the usual English version will differ somewhat from the local form as in Franz Josef Strauss; and rarely, as with Mount Everest, it will be completely different.
WP:CANSTYLE is even more specific than WP:NC on this point.  Unless there is a widely used and recognized English-language version of the name, use the official French-language version.
