Talk:Mixed media

message: I noticed this category is missing another topic commonly found today in the Mixed Media (visual arts) which is sometimes called Fiber Arts or Mixed Media Quilting. I noticed the current page on Fiber Art discusses an older use of the term, not the manner in which it is most often used today. How would I go about adding this additional kind of visual art to this page and possibly also to the Fiber Art (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_art) page?

In the subsequent article, I added other names for which this art work is called and referenced 2 books published on Amazon naming the art in the manner I referenced.

Talk:Ephedra sinica

message: Is this herb still available or legal to buy in dried form?
(not as a supplement). Thank you.
reply: I was wondering the same thing. I would assume the plant is legal to buy and grow, and probably possess in dried form (granted it's not enough to suspect an eventual attempt to synthesize speed). Legal or not, you can buy seeds online; Enjoy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.237.80.90 (talk) 19:12, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Links to expand upon 

message: Hello. I noticed you reassessed this plant's importance as "low" with the reason that it "not important". Would you mind elaborating? I think you may be misjudging this plant because the article is presently a stub.
Ephedra sinica has a centuries long cultural history primarily as a traditional medicine. It was also formerly the world's primary source for the medication ephedrine, and it remains commercially important as a multimillion-dollar industry despite synthetic ephedrine recently displacing it as the primary source. Comparatively, this seems more "important" than the many decorative plants like Acalypha hispida, Actinidia kolomikta, Aspidistra elatior, and Aeonium tabuliforme which are presently prioritised as "mid", so I'm not sure why you describe Ephedra sinica as "not important" rather than of "high" or at least "mid" importance. Scyrme (talk) 23:37, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: my view is that when multiple assessments are present, as here, the assessment should related to the WikiProject, and doesn't need to be the same for all of them. So the question I asked myself is "is this species important as a plant species?" rather than, say, in traditional medicine. But it's clear that there's no consistency in assessments. If you look at the examples at Wikipedia:WikiProject Plants/Assessment#Importance scale, it seems to me that it's not an important botanical topic, like Herbivory, nor a major worldwide food crop, like Banana, so "high" wouldn't be justified. But by all means change it to "mid" if you wish. Peter coxhead (talk) 06:29, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Netochka Nezvanova

message: :It translates to "nameless nobody.".
It doesn't. 
'Netochka' is derived from 'net' ('no' in Russian) + hypocoristic suffix 'ochk' + feminine ending 'a'.
'Nezvanova' is derived from prefix 'ne' ('not' in Russian) + 'zvan' (~ 'called', from the verb 'звать' - to call) + feminine ending 'ova' (commonly used in last names, may be used for the possessive case)
So her name means something like No Notcalled, not Nameless Nobody.217.118.64.63 (talk) 17:02, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

I found out that the "Digital" part is that how the signal is being generated, not broadcasted.

Talk:Triphenylmethane

message: The text states that conversion of chlorotriphenylmethane to triphenylmethane is accomplished by hydrolysis but that is wrong. In the Organic Syntheses prep that is cited, it is clear that ether and aluminum chloride cause pyrolysis of ether when heated, and some unknown reducing agent is responsible for reduction of chlorotriphenylmethane, so it is a reduction by pyrolysis or by unknown mechanism, not a hydrolysis. If you perform hydrolysis of chlorotriphenylmethane, the only product obtained (and the only product obtainable by hydrolysis) is triphenylmethanol. 45.62.183.154 (talk) 17:57, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

It sounds like a qualifier is missing here somewhere (perhaps "Jewish"?).  I can think of any number of lobby groups which are political and have a national (i.e. non-regional) focus.

replies: text: has this been mentioned in any reliable secondary published sources? Although this would not likely be a contentious point, citing census forms for this could be regarded as original research and challenged. - Donald Albury 16:01, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

text: People didn't fill out forms like they do today - back in 1910, the census enumerator wrote down the information provided by one member of the household, who is indicated on the census using a symbol.  The 1910 census information originated with the mother - she was the primary source. The 1910 census is a secondary source and is published and available online at a number of places.  The statement that all of her grandparents were Bahamian (which I'm not disputing) likely originated with the family. So the secondary source of that information is likely not very reliable anyway. Also, note I didn't change the article, so I'm not citing anything. I am simply indicating for interested parties (and until more evidence can be found) that her maternal grandfather is listed alternatively as "German" and as "Bahamas German". Moreover Schultz is not a traditionally Bahamian name. When I have sufficient evidence, I will change the article and cite the source. ash (talk) 08:52, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
