message: I've moved the external links to the bottom.  The section on the opening wineries has a bit of a promotional feel, and probably should be removed.  However, I can see how it could be useful information for visitors. I wouldn't have immediately thought to call the Penticton tourism centre for info on Naramata.  I agree, pictures would be great!

message: I edited almost the entire text. The older version sounded too essay-ish and PoV. I toned in down and changed order of presentation, et al. Plus, moved claim of notability to lead. However, it still needs more references (I actually pointed out the places). Since I based the rewrite off the info already present, I could not clarify information that was vague or confusing.

Talk:Discourse on the Method/Archived

message: It makes me very happy that an article that I started, which to me is about an important subject,to see that two years later, it has only been improved by each and every editor that has touched it. No conflict, only improvement . Thank you all! DanielDemaret 17:59, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello there Jwy. 
Thank you for taking an interest in the article. I started the article in May 2004, and not much of substance has happened to it since then. Today someone posted a finnish link, I got interested in looking at the other links and therefore I looked thru them.
I found that the Portuguese version was a featured article, so I decided to see if one could start improving this a bit. I added some text from the Portuguese version, some from the French, stole a picture from the finnish version, added more sections and some more text from the original text.
It is far from done, but I prefer to experiment my way forwards. Since very few others edit here, I thought I was alone :)
I think images can be a good way of illustrating and lightening up an article so I decided to add a picture of a cartesian coordinate system along the word "cartesian coordinates", and I thought a bit of basic calculus notation might be appropriate beside the calculus version.
Are you interested in improving content and layout to this article too? DanielDemaret 21:30, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Astérix (satellite)

message: While a citation would be welcome, the estimate of several centuries is not wrong. the French article lists 54cm length and 55cm diameter, which makes the cross-section below 0.25m^2. At 40kg, that's 0.00625m^2/kg surface to mass ratio. Orbital decay time vs altitude graph (source) gives an order of 10,000 days (27 years) for orbit of ~527km. 527km is the perigee, where the satellite spends least time - and with apogee of almost 1700km (altitude 1000km is ~3000 years decay time), the estimate of "a few hundred years" may be conservative.
Of course this counts as "original research" so can't be used as source - but don't delete the factoid "because it's unsourced" - it's correct, it just needs a source. Sharpfang (talk) 09:07, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

message: I've added the weasel word templates as the section cites concerns of 'many residents', with no specifics or citation. I've also nominated it's neutrality be checked, as it makes statements like 'the presense of the festival this is more than out weighed by the intrusion and inconveniences endured by residents of the small community', which doesn't really seem like something that can be quantified, and would depend on the opinion of the person making the statement.

message: To the best of my knowledge there was no internment in Salmo.  The mountain (mound?) is named that because there was a cedar shake mill that operated there around the turn of the century that employed Japanese laborers. To say that the site has never been acknowledged and the sad comments paint a negative light on the citizens which is not warranted.  I will verify with some of the older residents but I'm quite sure this is the case.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ian6195712 (talk • contribs) 16:56, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

message: According to this BC government source, Salmo is a 'Village municipality'. A recent edit from  Jsfxmn has removed the 'municipality' word from the paragraph and i tend to agree that it is a bit useless.. but...

I could expand a bit more on the prehistory way of life for the old sechelt people as well as some of the recorded history.

thread_title:  Most Famous Inhabitant 

message: As a reader not very familiar with the region, this passage left me confused:
"it is accessible from mainland British Columbia by a 40-minute ferry trip between Horseshoe Bay and Langdale, and a 25-minute drive from Langdale along Highway 101, also known as the Sunshine Coast Highway."
Because, per the other geographic descriptions on the page and reviewing the map, Sechelt is in "mainland British Columbia!"
I see this term is used widely in articles about the region but I’m not sure it's defined anywhere (though Lower Mainland is, if not very precisely). As I understand, Mainland generally is only exclusionary of islands, and its article supports this definition.
So, perhaps the intent of this passage is to exclude Sechelt from "the mainland" because it is (partially) on the Sechelt Peninsula, but that would be a non-standard use. More likely, I think, it is to explain that such a route is necessary from "nearby developed areas of Mainland BC," ie. the Vancouver Metro, because there does not appear to be any direct overland route. This is admittedly wordy, however; does anyone else have any thoughts on how better to clarify this passage? Walkersam (talk) 20:56, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

**Sicamous Hotel and lake, 1920s
**Sicamous Hotel, c.1880 (date would really be later '80s, as railway construction hadn't started yet in 1880)
**Sicamous Hotel, date undetermined
**Sicamous Hotel and station, 1912
**Sicamous Hotel, 1947
Probably the 1880s one is the most likely to be OK for public domain use.  The one with the train and station maybe good for use one the railway hotels page, though.  Might be other pics in VPL or Nat'l Archives or Kamloops Museum collection.Skookum1 (talk) 03:41, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Vocalese

message: I would like to add the following reference to the end of the article on vocalese:
In a different genre, the British comic song duo, Flanders and Swan set lyrics to the rondo finale of Mozart's Horn Concerto in E flat major, K. 495. in their 1963 recording At the Drop of Another Hat.
However, given the often violent reactions that I have seen on Wikipedia for far lesser crimes, will only do so if someone equally bold seconds my motion. I have noticed that jazz purists tend to go for the jugular rather than accept a compromise and some would probably have difficulty accepting even vocalese as a form of jazz.
