message: A German user  made me notice that his birth date could be in 1855 (9 October 1855) as his first grave in Köln shows it (his body is not anymore there because it has been transported to Mount Herzl in Jerusalem in 1952; so this grave would be empty).

Talk:Core-Plus Mathematics Project

message: There are currently some issues in the lead that we should work on. Editor 74.69.116.41 has added material that may not fit the guidelines for a lead and may violate other guidelines.
There are instances of the use of ad populum arguments such as "critics say . . ." in violation of Avoid Weasel Words. It's best just to state the criticism rather than make the general ad populum statement. The use of words such as "however" and "in fact" detract from the neutral tone an article should have. See Words to Avoid.
Also, the lead is supposed to be a general, neutral description of a topic, summarizing the article. Arguments themselves that are related to a particular point of view should properly come later in the article, especially since this article has a section devoted to the debate. It's appropriate to allude to this debate in the lead, but the argument itself should be presented later.
Also, writing Wikipedia articles generally entails finding and summarizing sources. In contentious articles, editors with a POV tend to find and insert the most damning quotes into the article. You won't find this style in a Featured Article.
I'm going to revert the changes by the anonymous editor and will try to properly integrate the added material later in the article.
I don't have a POV here, other than to want this to be a good article. TimidGuy 11:25, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Encyclopedia style in the lead 

message: However critics of controversial NCTM based approaches have called for removal of these texts, including parents, mathematicians, and educators. Such critics have stated that it relies heavily on specific models of calculators, covers a large number of advanced topics not required by colleges or careers, and does not promote mastery of basic algrebra concepts. Entire units and a seperate index are devoted to topics such as shoes, or global warming. Several studies have concluded that graduates are less prepared for college level math and more likely to require remedial math than traditional approaches.  In fact, according to Steven G. Krantz, Chairman of the Department of Mathematics at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, "Instead of textual substance, instead of explanation,
instead of examples, instead of drill on basic skills, this text concentrates
on 'Investigations' conducted by group work." He went on to say that "It seems to
be more concerned with social questions than with substantive mathematics. It sets a poor example for students because it uses language imprecisely, often not even defning important terms." In short, his view is that "You would be doing your students, and your school district, a great disservice to adopt this book as your primary text. It may be fashionable to teach from such a book, but it is not effective." 
Seems like Milgram should go in the Andover section of the article. The unsigned letter from the Mathematically Correct web site could go in the section that mentions this organization. We'd still need sources for some of the info. TimidGuy 15:49, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I've had to do a bit of OR in the article re. the award's naming format.  Unfortunately, I've not found any sources, even press releases, that specifically state that the awards changed their naming format in 2011/2012, so that there was a 2011 award in 2011, and a 2011 award in 2012.

The Age is a Melbourne newspaper that is highly regarded as a reliable source, and its editorial position is consistently supportive of refugees and asylum seekers (    ) Allegations of xenophobia in The Age are not published in any reliable source, and as such must be removed from Wikipedia as unfounded.

Talk:Blue film

message: I seriously doubt the derivation currently suggested. The OED records the use of "blue" to mean indecent as far back as 1864. In the publishing/printing industry, a blue pencil has long been used to censor material from manuscripts. This highlights the material while still allowing it to be read. If a manuscript had a lot of blue pencil on it, it was said in slang terms to be blue, meaning it would have to be heavily censored. This meaning later came to be transferred to film scripts and then indecent films.--Shantavira|feed me 12:56, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Etymology

message: This concerns POV tag cleanup.  Whenever an POV tag is placed, it is necessary to also post a message in the discussion section stating clearly why it is thought the article does not comply with POV guidelines, and suggestions for how to improve it.  This permits discussion and consensus among editors.  From WP tag policy: Drive-by tagging is strongly discouraged. The editor who adds the tag must address the issues on the talk page, pointing to specific issues that are actionable within the content policies, namely Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, Wikipedia:Verifiability, Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. Simply being of the opinion that a page is not neutral is not sufficient to justify the addition of the tag. Tags should be added as a last resort.  Better yet, edit the topic yourself with the improvements.  This statement is not a judgement of content, it is only a cleanup of frivolously and/or arbitrarily placed tags.

thread_title: [Untitled]

message: Lines 9-10 read: "Therefore my mistress' eyes are raven black, / Her eyes so suited, and they mourners seem." I've read it as "my mistress' brows are raven black." This allows us to avoid the ambiguity. The source linked below seems to acknowledge both and I think it switched out "brows" for "eyes," or maybe the other way around, but it's not clear why from context. This source also discusses the two different versions, and implies that "eyes" was the original: http://www.shakespeares-sonnets.com/sonnet/127. The photo shared here ends at line 8. Brows is not repetitive, so I would hope that's what Shakespeare intended for the sonnet to say, but it's hard to tell. Any further insights? Daniel J. Hakimi (talk) 00:24, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Booth (2000: 110-11, 436-37) and Duncan-Jones (2010: 368-69) are 2 of the best modern editions, and frankly the ones I had to hand. They both acknowledge some editors' insertion of "brows" or "hairs" in one or the other of these lines but retain the original "eyes" in both. Of my 2 complete works, Riverside (1997: 1866) retains "eyes" and  Pelican (1969: 1474) replaces the instance in line 9 with "brows". Booth holds that "no argument for emendation or for any particular emendation is sufficiently persuasive to overcome counterarguments", and recommends Ingram and Redpath's summary of the problems. At first blush, I'm skeptical of emendation, but the topic itself is certainly appropriate for the article. I encourage you to research the problem and contribute a summary.
