Talk:The Perfect Man (2005 film)

message: When I added the "confusing" tag, the "Plot" section read as follows:
:Single mother Jean (Locklear) moves every time she gets her heart broken by another guy, much to the dismay of her teenager daughter, Holly (Duff). Holly devises a plan, to get a secret admirer interested in her mother so she'll finally stop moving. The online relationship takes off, but Holly has to scramble to find a guy for her mother. She sets her mother up with her friend's Uncle while trying to make her leave again, missing out on love. But that was not what her mother wanted. She wanted a very different man.
I can vaguely understand what's going on here, but there are a lot of loose ends and misplaced antecedents.  Hopefully someone who's seen the movie can fix it for the rest of us.  Thanks! --Mareino 19:45, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I didn't know where to put this, so I decided upon putting it here. Mark Rosman doesn't have a Wikipedia page, although I think he deserves one due to the fact that he has directed, written and produced many films and it beats most Wikipedia director's pages! Does anyone think they can create one? Especially since IMBD has a page devoted to him!

Talk:Psychology essay

message: I'm restoring the redirect on this. There is no correct information here at this point. All it says is: Psychology essay is a type of written assignment where one should reveal one’s point of view on the current psychology issues, topic or subject or contention and arguments of other persons. All that information is in fact incorrect: essays are not neccessarily or even usually assignments - there is no universal rule that says they must reveal a 'point of view', they need not be on 'current issues' (old essays are still essays) and they don't need to deal with the arguments of other people (although most might). All this looks like reflecting the use of the term in one limmited context (US highschools?) Indeed, all that could be said with any general application in that 'Psychological essays are essays pertaining to psychology'. And that isn't a stub, it is a dicdef. If anyone disagrees with the redirect, let them set down their reasons here and suggest what content might be valid at this name. --Doc ask? 19:50, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm restoring the redirect to essay. There is no valid information here. Much of what is here violates WP:NOT a 'how to'. The rest is simply wrong: 'is a type of written assignment' - not neccessarily, indeed most essays are not assignments - that relates to school homework somewhere. There are no general 'rules' for writing essays (although there may be in some specific contexts - but these will be too general to be encycopedic).

Fourth Grade might have a particular significance in the US of A but it isn't standard terminology. Perhaps someone could translate it to non-US-specific language? Unfortunately, as it stands, it reinforces the view that the majority of the world is regarded as almost incidental except inasmuch as it relates to the US of A, which is hardly satisfactory for a site with aspirations to be viewed as an encyclopaedia. 2A01:4C8:1522:78EF:1:1:CA46:31A7 (talk) 15:20, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Superparamagnetic effect

message: The three articles should merge. Superparamagnetism occurs below the Curie temperature and it is not a phase transition. The superparamagnetic effect occurs when the dimensions of each crystalite/particle reduce below a critical size. The physics is such that the surrounding thermal energy becomes comparable to the anisotropy barrier (note that, exchange coupling between neighbouring spins within the crystalite is still retained). This causes the ferromagnetic material to display paramagnetic behaviour; one where each crystalite behaves as a "giant" moment (clusters of spins acting in unison). Hence the name superparamagnetism. 
In the context of magnetic memory storage technology, this means that as the storage density increases, crystalite size decreases. Eventually, as bit densities increase, we will reach the superparamagnetic limit. Storage of information becomes increasingly difficult because bits are no longer stable enough (disrupted due to ambient thermal energies) to remain in a particular orientation.

These obituaries for Syreeta, from 2004, mention her sister Kim Barnum and her mother Essie Wright, but do not mention Yvonne who died in 2016.
