Talk:Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard

message: While I generally try to WP:BEBOLD, I think the removal of this section requires some notice. There's a number of problems with the inclusion of this section that, in my opinion, warrant full removal. Absent any other comments, I will eventually remove this. Here's my justification.
The section starts talking about risk management. Risk management programs are defined under requirement 12, but instead the article discusses requirement 3, which is about controls protecting *stored* data. It also seems to be fixated on HSMs, which are are relevant generally for PCI, but are not discussed at all in the PCI DSS. Finally, the risk management "steps" do not coincide remotely with what exist under the req 12 risk management processes.
Those are the basic problems with what exists currently.
But in the end, the larger reason I think this should be removed, is that it picks one/two specific detailed areas to focus on in terms of the actual requirements, while the rest of the article only discusses high-level issues. From my standpoint, it's not feasible (without more editor interest) to get into detailed discussions about particular PCI DSS requirements, so we should stick with a high-level discussion instead.

replies: text: I've gone ahead and removed the section. I'll also comment, sourcing is a problem with this topic in general, because essentially you can only find primary sources or non-independent secondary sources for support of the content. The PCI Council promulgates the rules, and certifies companies to be authorities on the interpretation of the rules (though card brands and merchant banks are also authorities). So under Wikipedia rules, most secondary sources get reverted immediately for not being independent. Which I'm not saying is bad or wrong, it's just an unfortunate effect of the system under which the PCI DSS operates. DoubleRelevance (talk) 02:57, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Cockacoeske

message: The most up-to-date treatment of Cockacoeske is in a work by the National Park Service entitld "Colonial National Historical Park: A Study of Virginia Indians..."
Concerning the date of Cckacoeske's death and who succeeded her as stated in the above work:
On July 1, 1686, the Pamunkey interpreter, George Smith, informed the Governor that the Pamunkey Queen "was lately dead and that ye Pamunkey Indians did desire that ye late Queen's niece ...upon [whom] ye right of Government of that Indian nation doe devolve, might succeed." Virginia's governor might have expected to see the succession pass to the Queen's own half-English son, but traditional ideas of inheritance still prevailed among the Pamunkeys. In 1702 the name of "Ms. Betty Queen ye Queen" of the Pamunkey Indians was mentioned in a land transaction and by 1708 that of Queen Ann began appearing in official documents. 
I have corrected the Wikipedia entry for Cockacoeske to change the date of her death from 1720 to 1686. Also to distinguish between her and Queen Anne who was her secnd successor.
Prior to 1679, my ancestor Cornelius Dabney was interpreter to Cockacoeske and genealogies state that Cornelius Dabney's second wife Susannah was the granddaughter of Cockacoeske and her husband Totopotomoi. I am still compiling evidence for this assertion and hope eventually to prepare a short biography of Cornelius Dabney based in part on his letters in the 1670's to the British government interpreting statements by Cockacoeske.

Talk:Nautical Almanac (disambiguation)

message: It appears that there really should be a separate article on the British Nautical Almanac, first published in 1766, as described in the Nevil Maskelyne.  There are a lot of pages about that publication that point to this disambiguation page, which really doesn't have a link to that publication, only to the office responsible for it (which is hardly the same thing).

Talk:Lane, West Yorkshire

message: Please feel free to tell me to p*ss off (having seen various discussions about "The Peak District"), but this reads (badly) like Lane is situated between Holme Village and the Peak District National Park (Authority) boundary.
Between Holme and the Peak District National Park boundary, which crosses the A6024 Woodhead Road, on the southern edge of the village, then passes along its western edge to Holme village.
Both Lane and Holme Village lie inside the PDNPA boundary - the familiar stone boundary marker does lie further up the A6024 (but appears to be purely for the sake of appearances) - the boundary in this area  cuts between Ramsden and Brownhill Reservoir (to the SE of Holme) before passing Holme to the East and along Field Head Lane.  Hope this helps (and doesn't sound too pedantic!).--218.102.23.80 03:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually you are partially right! Lane is inside the National Park Boundary.  However the road running through Holme Village is itself the boundary, or at least the boundary runs alongside of it.  My understanding is that from, approximately, the Bus terminus to Field Head Lane, the parts of the village laying to the side of the road on which the Golden Fleece Public house is located are within the boundary.  Those across the road are not, nor are those buildings to the northern side of Field Head Lane. Richard Harvey 15:22, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

text: How embarassing! I rooted out an old (incorrect) map from my archives that showed an original proposed boundary which followed along the footpath from the footbridge between Ramsden and Brownhill, round Netherly Brow and up the stream past Gill Hey Bridge to the old farm track and then up that to the milestone and into the village.  Having now rechecked, using an up-to-date map, I note that the boundary seems to follow a line to the rear of the Castle Hotel, or through the middle of it depending on the map source such as this one:- Multimap location Holme Village

thread_title:  A mystery 

message: I was recently doing some research on Reliance, Washington to find more articles so I submit a draft for it to be published. However, I came across something strange, and I wonder if it should be put in the draft.
First off, Reliance is a town in Pierce County. 3.5 miles west from Elbe. However the article got moved to the draft space for not having enough sources, So I tried to find more sources for it. However on my quest I came across some images. 
https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/digital/collection/clarkkinsey/search/searchterm/cascade. One of these images is also on . These images may not seem interesting at first. But in some of them there is an added context, "	
Reliance was a logging community on the north side of the Nisqually River three and a half miles west of Elbe in southern Pierce County. It was inundated by Alder Dam and a community called New Reliance was built a half mile north of Alder. The Reliance Lumber Company built the original Reliance. A nearby hill is called Reliance Hill."
So this tells that there was a town called Reliance that got flooded by Alder Dam. It also says it was 3.5 miles west from Elbe. So it must be the same Reliance! However, Reliance still exists! So does this mean Reliance was flooded, and then rebuilt by the shore? Would this be notable and a reliable source to put on the draft? Bigfatman8766 (talk) 04:57, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
