Talk:Transition (literary journal) (1927-1938)

message: I've removed the primarysources tag. This journal went out of business in 1938. My guess is that that was before the Internet, so the reference website is not affiliated to it. If you look, you'll find that it is at a perfectly respectable university and is a valid source. Please take some care before adding tags like this to articles.

message: This is NOT, as the article wrongly said, the only canonical oz book in which Dorothy does not appear.  There are several such.  For instance, Dorothy does not appear in CAPTAIN SALT IN OZ.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.237.243.185 (talk) 01:30, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Dorothy is completely absent from Silver Princess, certainly (both Captain Salt and Silver Princess feature only Ruth Plumly Thompson's own characters). There are many other books in the series in which Dorothy makes only cameo appearances (including Tik-Tok, Scarecrow, Rinkitink and Tin Woodman among Baum's own books).

message: I will update this if I can ever find concrete proof, but I have seen trailers for a live action movie of this that appears to be from the 60s or 70s, probably low budget.

It was often a trailer at the beginning of many VHSs for children in the late 80s/early 90s.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:8:B580:811:B4CD:8BF2:16F5:7960 (talk) 19:19, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

message: The names of the Indian Institutes of Management do not contain a comma. Please do not edit the pages and insert commas in the names.
: I researched the above statement a little bit and this is the best response so far from my classmate at IIM Lucknow.
Is it Infosys Banagalore & Infosys Chennai or Infosys, Banagalore & Infosys, Chennai?
The IIM is estd by the govt of India and each location gets its management and freedom to operate within a certain guidelines. But each location is an IIM. If you look at the official address, it says:
IIM, Prabandh Nagar, Off. Sitapur Road,
Lucknow-226 013.
Therefore, the name is IIM & you are free to put or not put commas when you add the location name to identify the excact institute. The rules of English grammar tend to agree with Mr.Dole and say that you should put a comma.
I think the comma should return.

Talk:Buick City

message: Though the reference, the WSWS, stated that Buick City was the last GM assembly in Flint, it is actually the last Buick assembly in Flint. The city proper still contains a GMC truck assembly in the southwest corner. See this EPA report for a cite.  DDerby(talk) 05:03, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Last auto plant?

message: The current chronology is misleading - Roger & Me was filmed during and shortly after the creation of Buick City.  The closing the film documented was the closing of the obsolete Fisher Body plant that occurred in 1987.  Cars no longer were made with a steel chasis - the operations of making the body and final assembly were consolidated in the original Buick Factory.  The body fabrication line was converted to robotic welding machines, doing away with the need  for the 3,100 Fisher Body employees who were still welding car bodies by hand.  The current wording implies that Roger & Me was filming the closing of Buick City, when it was actually chronicling the opening of Buick City (Fisher Body was not part of Buick City)
Assembly operations at Buick City ceased in 1999, but the engine plant on the North End of the complex continued to make engines used by other car lines.  The final engines were built in August 2008.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:A000:DA80:5B00:D12A:D140:7130:C986 (talk) 16:04, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

The word 'neutral' can therefore be misleading.  I have to write to each manufacturer to ask the source of the NGS. People need to be aware of the source of the NGS.

message: As it stands, this article seems to miss explaining the central topic: what the term "imprint" actually refers to. 
On a page related to Ref 1, http://geneimprint.com/site/what-is-imprinting there's a discussion of why this phenomenon is called "imprinting". Apparently "imprinting" refers to marks added (printed) to a gene in either egg or sperm which disable this gene. The idea that marks are added in an egg to particular genes, and in a sperm to other genes, goes a long way to explaining the rest of the story.

thread_title:  Revamp of Article - Fair Warning 

message: In trying to make sense of this encyclopedia "article," I find that it consists of a collection of aphorisms lifted from various sources and loosely pasted together. There is no overarching sense being made, such that a reader can become familiar with the subject by reading the article. It is the "too many cooks" syndrome, with each author dropping a small contribution into the pot, and then leaving. If Wikipedia is to be a useful encyclopedia, its articles should have the capacity to educate a person who is not already grounded in the subject. I assume that each sentence in the article is true on its own; however, small bits of truth do not magically combine to form a useful article on their own.
