message: Is the following in the article ambiguous in meaning as to which is the most recent?
> As of 2017, the three most recent conclaves have elected a Pole, a German, and an Argentinian.

thread_title:  Ambiguity? 

message: "the cardinal electors should be locked in seclusion cum clave (Latin for "with a key")"
If this is intended to explain the etymology of the word, then:
1) I do not know if anyone notices, but the word is "CONclave" and not "CUMclave". So what the latter has to do with the former, please?
2) "cum"+"clave" does indeed literally mean "with"+"a key"; the problem is that Latin is an inflected language, so its instrumentals do not require to be marked with a preposition. And so "(to lock) with a key" is "(claudere) clave", without one. Exactly as in "qui gladio ferit, gladio perit" (who lives by the sword, dies by the sword), and not "qui cum gladio ferit" etc.
3) On the contrary "to lock someone cum clave" (claudere aliquem cum clave) does not really mean "to lock someone with a key", but "to lock someone together with a key", which is absurd.
4) The reality is that "conclave" is a common Latin noun which means "a (locked) room" (viz. where the cardinals are sitting in the process of the creation of a new pope). To be checked in ANY relevant dictionary, not necessary an ecclesiastic one.
:@4: Or in Wiktionary (I don't undertake to decide if it's a relevant dictionary or not). @2/3: There is some chance that the usage was looser (i.e. more influenced by Romance vernaculars) before the Renaissance. 89.64.69.36 (talk) 20:09, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ronald Edward 

message: This bit had me scratching my head:
"Gregory XV added the additional oath, taken when each cardinal casts his ballot, to prevent cardinals wasting time in casting "courtesy votes" and instead narrowing the number of realistic candidates for the papal throne to perhaps only two or three. Speed in electing a pope was important, and that meant using an oath so as to get the cardinals down to the serious business of electing a new pope and narrowing the number of potentially electable candidates."
How, exactly, does the additional oath do these things? How does it speed things up and narrow down the number of candidates?

** What a coincidence. I've just been hearing about this band on the news.

thread_title:  Text from "Votes for deletion" 

message: This article started out as a track listing for an album, with "no context", as Eloquence said. But here's a useful tip: the context of an article can be reconstructed by checking "What links here", and by checking the other edits by the same contributor around the time the article was created. (At the time, I mean; it's too late now that most of their articles have been deleted.) This would have shown that the album Hell On Earth which the page was about was an album allegedly made by the band Alcott Louisa (a band whose existence has, as far as I am aware, never been confirmed). See e.g. the soon-to-be-deleted article on Melisa Sloan. So it's not an album by the band Hell on Earth at all! If no context is given in an article, one should try to establish the context, and not just guess one. -- Oliver P. 20:27, 16 Dec 2003 (UTC)

thread_title: Polish-Jewish?

message: It seems probable that Bronislaw Kaper was inspired by Meditation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%A9ditation_%28Tha%C3%AFs%29) when he wrote Hi Lili, Hi Lo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-Lili,_Hi-Lo) for the movie Lili (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lili).  I cannot find anything on the internet indicating that this connection has been established, and I am no historian.  What do you think?  Here are youtube versions of both:
The song from the movie (similarity is in the chorus):  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8C8z1wUn9A4
Itzhak Perlman's performance of Meditation:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PfNnAs6C88
I haven't listened to the entire opera to see if there are any other similarities.
If the general agreement is that Kaper does appear to have borrowed from the opera, how do we prove it?  Is it permissible to add an entry to the article(s) indicating that there is speculation that Kaper was inspired by this classical piece?  If permissible, would anyone here like to do it?  I am a new user (this is my second entry; the first was in the talk pages to the Meditation article; this is a near-identical copy.)  Thank you!

Talk:Penile plethysmography

message: Some questions for someone who knows more on the subject:
* I have read that plethysmography has been used to diagnose clinical paedophilia, by determining if a person is aroused by pictures of children more than by conventional pornography. Is this still being used?
* What does the current scientific literature say about the reliability of this method? There have been plenty of criticisms of other technological means of measuring people's mental states, such as the polygraph, recently. I would expect much of the same would apply.
* How about legal precedents? Where is plethysmography accepted as evidence (e.g. of paedophilia)?

Talk:Molecular scale biology

message: I really like the content of this page.  However, I question a need to have a separate page on "molecular scale biology", which isn't as commonly used a term as simply "molecular biology".  Although I can see that the page is attempting to address the combination of genetics, molecular biology and biochemistry, I still think most biologists would consider all of this falling under the rough rubric of "molecular biology". 
My feeling is that the content here should be merged into either molecular biology or the biophysics page.   Currently the molecular biology page mostly describes molecular biology techniques, and I can see why the author probably saw a need for a conceptual page on molecular biology, but I think the right thing to do is to make the content here the main/intro subsection on molecular biology and the current techniques sections at molecular biology a subsection of that page.

Talk:Symphony No. 22 (Haydn)

message: Camembert--
I've deleted your bit about the basso continuo, on the strength of James Webster's program notes for the Hogwood/Academy of Ancient Music recording of this symphony.  Webster cites an article by himself in the April 1990 issue of Early Music.  His evidence apparently consists of the surviving individual orchestra parts (no keyboard in symphonies), the Esterhazy payroll records, and a couple other bits.  If you know of evidence that goes the other way, please change the article to restore the scholarly balance.
Thanks for starting an article on this wonderful symphony.

Talk:Sum rule in integration

message: This whole article needs to be rewritten.  The fact that integration is a linear operator holds in quite general contexts, e.g. piece-wise continuous functions, or even non-continuous functions in the context of the Lebesgue integral.  This "proof" only proves it for the very special case when the integrand is differentiable, this is a really small class of functions.  Moreover, the "reason" why integration is linear doesn't really rely on FTC or the linearity of differentiation.  This article gives the impression that the property only holds for diffable funcs.
It would be more appropriate to direct this comment at linearity of integration, rather than at this page that derives a basic rule from the antiderivative.
