Talk:Corn kernel

message: Under the Biomass section is the second paragraph and third paragraph relevant to the article as they refer to bioenergy in general and not corn kernels? There are no specific references to information that supports the claims in the three paragraphs under biomass, there is also no mention of the disadvantages of bioenergy (takes land from food production, carbon produced from burning biomass, increased energy transportation costs due to lower fuel density).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by GR8DAN (talk • contribs) 16:26, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

message: In one section it says the tax began in 1342 but later on it says what the rate was in 1341, implying the tax is even older than this.

Talk:Business mileage reimbursement rate

message: Since we're really talking about two different concepts (i.e., tax deduction rates versus employee reimbursement rates), we might want to consider changing the title of the article. The IRS "tax deduction" rate is not necessarily the same as an "employee reimbursement" rate. Computing an "employee reimbursement" is not even the primary purpose of the IRS rate.
Also, for purposes of U.S. federal income tax deductions, there are other IRS mileage rates besides the "business" rate. There's the medical mileage rate, the charitable contribution mileage rate, and the moving expense mileage rate. Postal Service employees used to have their own tax deduction rate as well (maybe they still do; I haven't checked lately).
Maybe the article could be re-titled more generically as: Standard mileage rate. Then, the article could expand and break the topic down, as follows:
::(A) Standard mileage rates for allowance of U.S. federal income tax deductions: Business standard mileage rate; Medical mileage rate; Charitable contribution mileage rate; Moving expense mileage rate.
::(B) U.S. employee reimbursement expense rates: Employers using IRS business rate; Employers using GSA rate.

Talk:1918 Danish Folketing election

message: This official source says that Venstre got 46 seats (instead of 45) and that R. Venstre got 31 (instead of 32).

replies: text: The numbers are right, also per the official source from Danmarks Statistik.

Template talk:Infobox professional wrestling team

message: I would like to propose the introduction of a "Tagline" or "Motto" parameter to the template. This addition aims to encapsulate the essence and identity of wrestling stables through their well-known taglines or mottos.
Rationale:
Taglines and mottos play a significant role in the branding and identity of professional wrestling stables, often capturing their ethos, mission, or character in a succinct phrase. These taglines contribute to the team's recognition and fan connection, which makes them an integral part of the stable's public image.
Examples:
- Imperium: "The Mat is Sacred" – This tagline underscores the stable's reverence for wrestling as a pure sport.
- The New World Order (nWo): "Too Sweet" – Beyond a catchphrase, this tagline symbolises the group's bond and impact on wrestling culture.
- D-Generation X (DX): "Break It Down" – This tagline reflects the stable's rebellious and groundbreaking attitude.
Implementation:
We propose making the "Tagline" field optional within the template to ensure it's used only when a verifiable tagline or motto exists for a wrestling team. The implementation would be straightforward, adding a simple text field for the tagline in the infobox, like so:
| tagline = “The Mat is Sacred”
Thank you for considering this proposal. I look forward to your insightful feedback.
Warm regards, WorldClassChampion (talk) 15:29, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Cess

message: The term "cess" is commonly used in railway terminology to represent the area between the outermost rail and the boundary fence. It includes the Dager Zone and the Safe Place.
I believe, although this cannot be proven, it represents the run off from the permanent way. The other explanation I have that it means the access to the "perway"
Could anyone shed some light on this.

Talk:Valis (novel series)

message: This is a common misconception, found also in books written by literary critics such as Patricia Warrick's Mind in Motion. Such a wrong idea stems from the very simple fact that until this year (2010) the sixth and last volume of Dick's letters was unpublished and not accessible. Now that we have his letters covering the last months of his life, there's no doubt that:
* Dick saw Archer as a part of the Trilogy
* If he had written Owl, it could have been a further part of the VALIS Trilogy, which would have been a tetralogy
Btw whenever someone discusses whether we should treat the three novels as a trilogy or not, based on how Owl might have completed the trilogy instead of Archer, s/he seems to forget that Owl was never written, it wasn't even began. Dick described the plot and the basic themes in several letters, but those plotlines and themes are different in each letter! And what he could have actually written could have been completely different from what he wrote in his letters (this had already happened for VALIS!). So we must understand that Owl cannot be used to prove anything, because it does not exist.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.40.63.32 (talk) 16:42, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
