message: Pardon me if this has been addressed elsewhere, but can anyone explain why Hernandez Colon is recorded only as the 4th Governor of PR?  Shouldn't his two nonconsecutive election cycles count as two separate gubernatorial administrations, such as we see with Grover Cleveland's two separate presidential administrations (22 and 24)? Left this way, he remains the 4th governor even when serving after the 5th, Romero Barcelo. The Original Historygeek (talk) 09:39, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  difference to outsourcing? 

message: In practical terms, these are just two different names for the same thing. There may be different conventions in different industries. In the food & beverage manufacturing business, I have seen the term toll manufacturing come up, rather than contract manufacturing. That is only anecdotal though. A more important consideration is whether the contract manufacturer is operating on a turnkey or consignment basis. A turnkey contract manufacturer (the more typical arrangement) will buy the raw materials to be used in the production process and own the inventory, including finished goods. A consignment contract manufacturer does not take title to raw materials, work in progress or finished goods; the contracting party retains title throughout the process.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robillard (talk • contribs) 00:00, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  What are differences between Toll Manufacturing and Contract Manufacturing ? 

message: I'm not clear on how contract manufacturing can constitute protectionism. Also, this section lacks wider context. For US-based firms, there can be tax benefits to establishing foreign subsidiaries to conduct contract manufacturing. These go beyond the other pros stated earlier in the article. The main benefit of such an arrangement would be the deferral of tax on the profit earned on the manufacturing function by the subsidiary. Protectionism could be worked in by discussing how countries have tried to make it cumbersome or costly to restructure manufacturing operations of domestic companies by establishing contract manufacturing subsidiaries. An example of this would be Germany's exit charge laws.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robillard (talk • contribs) 00:09, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I am removing trade speculation because it is unsourced. It has not been relayed in a reliable medium. The closest a reliable media has said is there is TALK about it. The problem with talk about is that talk about a possible trade is not encyclopedia worthy; and currently only blogs are reporting the trade having happened. 
* Wikipedia:Reliable sources – blogs, and radio speculation are not reliable sources
* Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons – remove unsourced or poorly sourced material

message: Although Merriam-Webster shows "wine growing", it is shown as a noun. Used as a compound modifier, it would take a hyphen ("wine-growing region"). Collins Dictionary shows "winegrowing". There is no justification for using all three forms in one article, as this one did before I changed it (same with the Lower Moselle article). The Collins Dictionary choice ("winegrowing") has the benefit of not setting us up for arguments about whether the hyphen is needed when used adjectivally. One way to settle what form to use is to search the revision history to see which form was used in the earliest revision and the use that form throughout the article. I did not research this, but you are free to do so. Chris the speller yack 04:30, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

message: Quote from the article: Later in the episode, after the aged and abandoned Babylon 5 was destroyed and the Drakh influence on Centauri Prime was exposed and eliminated, Zack joined the Rangers and became Centauri Emperor Vir Cotto's assistant and (presumably) a direct liaison between the Emperor and the League of Aligned Worlds.
Citation needed, especially for the first hilighted text, because this fact(?) is not depicted in Sleeping in Light nor other episode (at least of original series). The second part of the statement seems to be pure assumption, based on that is seen (Zack wears the uniform that resembles the Rangers' one and has some work to do with Vir), but it is not claimed explicitly.

replies: text: The timeline in regards to the Drakh is established in the Centauri trilogy as Vir does not become emperor until after (or rather, while) their influence is removed. The only part that is speculation is him being a "assistant and direct liaison". He is seen in Sleeping in Light wearing a Ranger uniform and going over paperwork with Vir, however it may have been a single visit on business.
