Wikipedia talk:Deletion of useless stub templates and stub categories/Vote

message: I have a problem with the immediate deletion of unapproved stubs. I can see that it is a useful thing to keep the project in the loop and organized, but I don't see the problem with listing it for vote (according to the proposed policy) prior to deletion. Perhaps the user isn't aware of the existence of the stub sorting project and having their stuff unilaterally deleted might give a pretty bad impression, to say the least. There are existing policies to cover vandalism and what not, so I don't really see the need to have this section. --jag123 10:50, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: The article is in desperate need of a rewrite.  As it stands, it's just a set of lists, sometimes not very clearly presented.  The reader is left unsure as to what exactly Boeren does.  I've got started on it in a minor way, but it needs more than one helping hand, I think (especially as I'd never heard of him before). It needs turning into a real article, a lot of the detail cutting out (for example, in the absence of any recordings as leader, only significant sideman or band-member recordings should be mentioned).

there were 11 additional peer review articles available on Ualberta library website: under Fatema Mernissi
I am not sure if there is a specialist on Islamic studies (other than Dr. Lifshitz)- perhaps some of the articles we read in class relating to Abu Lughod as she has a lot of pieces as well to draw in connection to Islamic feminism.

Talk:Arahath Mahinda Thero

message: The final -th in "Arahath" is  used in this function only in Ceylonese English, to distinguish the purely dental t from the retroflex ("thick") one. In Indian English, however, and in Latin transliterations of Indo-Aryan languages, the same -th- combination is used to distinguish the aspirated t (which doesn't exist in modern Sinhalese) from the un-aspirated one. Since the final t of the word "arahat" is not aspirated, the spelling "arahath" is not recommendable outside Sri Lanka. See also the article in this Wikipedia "Arhat", which begins: 'An arhat (also arahat or arahant; Chinese: 阿羅漢, aluohan; Tibetan: dgra-bcom-pa; Jp. arakan) is a highly realized Buddhist practitoner. It literally means "foe destroyer".'
Also, "Mahinda" has here been written in the stem form, but "Thero" in the nominative form. I think this article should be moved to "Arahat Mahinda Thera", being the internationally common transliteration of the Pali form of his name. (In Sanskrit, it would be Arhat Mahendra Sthavira, but I have never seen that.) Gunnar Gällmo 14:52, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Symphony No. 1 (Mahler)

message: Today while rehearsing with one of the orchestras I play in, the conductor mentioned that Mahler was inspired by the opening to Beethoven 4 and that it was his starting point for his first symphony.  Now that it has been pointed out to me, it seems terribly obvious and certainly appears to have some truth to it, but "my professor said..." is not exactly a verifiable source.  I think it would be great for this article if someone could help me dig up a real source for this and include it in the article somehow. Sara needs a nap (talk) 01:58, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I seem to remember reading an article in some sort of 'Mahler Studies' volume in which someone (de la Grange?) includes the Beethoven opening among a whole collection of resemblances and relations: if my memory is correct, and someone can remember what the book is, you would have your source. Even so, however, it would still be inadmissible to say that the relationship made the Beethoven work 'Mahler's starting point for his symphony': such a way of speaking goes beyond the facts.

message: The assertion "He proved that this definition was equivalent to the existence of ε almost-periods, for all ε > 0: that is, translations T(ε) = T of the variable t making |f(t+T)-f(t)|<ε" is wrong.
The correct form is to say that given any positive ε, there exists a positive L(ε) such that for any real x, the interval [x, x+L(ε)] contains an ε almost-period, that is, a τ such that 
|f(t+τ)-f(t)|<ε, for all real t. 
Note that if T makes |f(t+T)-f(t)|<ε it is not necessary that |f(t+2*T)-f(t)|<ε, that is, that k*T, k integer, form a set of ε almost-periods, hence the necessity of the L(ε).

Talk:Oxygène 7–13

message: I have now reverted User:Mikecron's accents edit and moved the article back from Oxygène 7-13 to Oxygene 7-13. While I am aware that "oxygène" is the proper spelling of "oxygen" in French (and the Allmusic review also adds accents), both Oxygene and Oxygene 7-13 seem to use the name without the accent consistently on their covers, as well as in the sleeve notes. Whether it's "Jean-Michel" or "Jean Michel" is a different issue; most album covers seem to use "Jean Michel", but "Jean-Michel" should be closer to his full name (cf. the article on Jarre). Jarrography's Jarre CD overview should give an impression of the hyphen-or-not mess.  — Peter L [talk|contribs]  22:10, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)
I noticed that the album cover omits the accent. However, accents are often dropped from letters in French when they are written in uppercase (as on the covers.) (Please see point 8 from the "miscellaneous rules" list of the Capitalization article.) Given that the "è" in the title of this article isn't capitalised, and "oxygène" is the proper spelling of "oxygen" in French, I believe the accent should be included. Mikecron 23:39, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: In 1991, Jean-Michel Jarre changed his name to Jean Michel Jarre, to please English speakers (I consider this a poor move, but well…). So, the question of the hyphen is no more. As for the accent, I do not know for sure: the French Wikipedia (Wikipédia ;-)) put an accent. Not sure neither, but I think Jean Michel Jarre label his albums with two names: a French and an English. This is usually pretty easy (Oxygene/Oxygène, Chronologie/Chronology…) but sometimes less so: Champs magnétiques is also Magnetic Fields (as a side note, for a long time, since I did not see it written I did not know if it was “Champs magnétiques” (Magnetic Fields) or “Chants magnétiques” (Magnetic Songs). It is plain possible that the (nice) confusion was on purpose from Jarre but it did not pass the barrier of language. Anyway, it is possible that both names are canon—Oxygene and Oxygène (also consider Fourth Rendez-Vous and Quatrième Rendez-vous—they are dual-named).David Latapie (✒ | @) 00:43, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
