Talk:PTT Bulletin Board System

message: Because in this article, "PTT" means a bulletin board system in Taiwan and its founder's account of this bulletin board system. It really does not mean the "Professional Technology Temple." Therefore, the title in this article should be renamed as "PTT Bulletin Board System." Alberthuang2 (talk) 07:27, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

message: I removed the "Five Lords" section earlier, but it came back again.  Clearly I need to explain the reason why I removed it.  This is an encyclopedia article, not a PTT board, not a place for an "inside joke".  If you want to include info about the "five lords", that is fine, but do it as in an encyclopedia article.  I made relevant edits.  If you don't agree, please respond to me here.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.192.152.26 (talk) 15:12, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Periyar University

message: Ramananpi 
These comments can be raised in the Periyar page with citations not in the Periyar University Page .If for example you want to write about Indira Gandhi's emergency it should be written in Indira Gandhi's page not in the IGNOU page.This is a government university  and named by the Tamil Nadu government.
The university is named after E. V. Ramaswami Naicker, a controversial politician and social reformer referred to by his followers as "Periyar" (elder one). It is not clear whether Periyar University adheres to the anti-Brahmin, anti-Hindu, and anti-India principles taught by EVR. EVR was opposed to independence for India, and wanted the British to continue ruling India. He also desecrated Hindu idols by garlanding them with footwear.
Hence reverting them

Talk:London Wall

message: Could someone realign this para for consistency ?
Starts off miles first    ----  which seems fair as that was how it would have been reckoned by the inhabitants for 2000 years   ---  then the metric equivalent in brackets, then suddenly changes to the other way around.
I tried, but in Edit, this messed up the footnotes;  yet in Edit Source, the handling was done by automatic conversions to metric, and I certainly wasn't going to learn those.
.
At present:
The length and size of the wall made it one of the biggest construction projects in Roman Britain. It had gateways, towers and defensive ditches, and was built from Kentish ragstone, which was brought by barge from quarries near Maidstone. It was 2 mi (3.2 km) long, enclosing an area of about 330 acres (130 ha). It was 2.5 m (8 ft) to 3 m (10 ft) wide and up to 6 m (20 ft) high.[8] The ditch or fossa in front of the outer wall was 2 m (6 ft 7 in) deep and up to 5 m (16 ft) wide. There were at least 22 towers spaced about 64 m (210 ft) apart on the eastern section of the wall.[9]

message: Hi all, a while ago we were able to add an interactive map of the various parts of the London wall that still exist. This has since gone since I was active on this page, which is a shame. I am not sure if this could be added back, maybe elsewhere? 
Additionally, I am not sure if we can change the location map image as it currently shows three dots near just one site, whereas wall fragments are located in multiple places. Would it be possible to add a custom map here to show this? Maybe just a map outlining the rough course of the wall on a modern map of London?  Jamzze (talk) 16:37, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Mount Meharry

message: I changed the height from 1251 m to 1249 m on the assumption that the Geoscience Australia Gazetteer is more authoritive than Peakbagger. Peakbagger is now used for the prominence figure. Incidently, a list of State highest peaks at Geoscience Australia (http://www.ga.gov.au/education/facts/landforms/highmtns.htm) gives Mt Meharry a height of 1253 m, but cites the National Geodetic database 1993 as its source.

Talk:Rate tart

message: I'd suggest that the two should be kept seperate because a Stooz is a specific type of Rate Tart. 
As I understand it from the links on the two pages:
- the term used in the media and by the banks etc for prolifically moving to the best deals is "Rate Tart"- Stooz was a regular Rate Tart and forum contributor who started a website, and he used his forum name as the URL for his business- Stoozing is a more specific form of Rate Tarting: it applies to making money from credit cards specifically, rather than saving money by exploiting introductory offers on a range of products (loans, savings accounts, mortgages, broadband etc)
Another alternative would be to merge Stoozing into Rate Tart (i.e. do the merge the other way round).
Does anyone have a strong opinion?

Talk:Charles Lane (journalist)

message: This page about me is highly inaccurate. The worst part suggests that Martin Peretz publicly declared that I had failed to root out Stephen Glass's frauds at the New Republic and that he fired me because of this. This is totally false. It never happened, and the footnote in the article that purportedly documents this assertion is a busted link. Additionally, the "controversies" section refers to outdated events, the most recent of which is ten years old, and describes them in a totally one-sided manner. I have tried to edit this myself in the last couple of days -- after tolerating it for many years -- but the edits keep getting reverted.

Talk:Syd Dernley

message: I must say that having watched interviews with him he does come across as a rather weird guy.
:Albert Pierrepoint mentions in his autobiography that one time, when taking down a dead person from the rope, his (unnamed) assistant made rude remarks on the genitalia of the deceased, and that he (Pierrepoint) saw to it that the assistant never again got a job.
:Some researchers speculate that this might refer to Dernley. However, assistants were hired by a different authority than the executioner, so Pierrepoint's ways to ensure anything of the kind are doubtful.
:Dernley himself, in his autobiography (published AFTER Pierrepoint's), relates a similar incident but  attributes the denunciation, if any, not to Pierrepoint but to an unnamed witness.
:Dernley writes that he had a collection of rather spicy poems, and relates one incident when he entertained his mates in the hangman's room with one of these, sending them into so loud a laughter that the man awaiting execution could not but hear them.
:The interview with Dernley (see references) contains the impression of the journalist that Dernley's "gallows humour" was strongly in evidence.
