Talk:EU–US Open Skies Agreement

message: Why does "EU" not have periods when "U.S." does?  Shouldn't they be consistent? 166.123.32.33 (talk) 19:27, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Although it can be inferred from the text already in the article, I think one particular imbalance should be explicitly mentioned: that while US airlines will be allowed to operate within the EU, European airlines won't get the same rights within the US. Although it's died down a bit now, there was quite a considerable fuss about this a year or so ago, at least here (Britain), on the grounds that it was unfair for (say) American Airlines to fly between London and Rome when British Airways couldn't operate from New York to Chicago. I can't remember for sure (which is why I haven't edited) but I vaguely remember that at one time this sticking point might even have brought the whole deal crashing down.

Talk:John of Cornwall

message: Someone just added a note to the effect that the 12th century "John of Cornwall" should not be confused with the 14th century "John of Cornwall".  If so it is possible that the sentence about "bringing the English language back from the verge of extinction" refers to the latter. Is there a doctor in the house who could shed light on this issue? Thanks, and all the best, --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 15:31, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: ODNB has "John of Cornwall (died in or after 1189), theologian" and a "Cornwall [Bryan}, John, died 1349, schoolmaster and grammarian" the latter is sometimes called "John of Cornwall". Will read on and report back. DuncanHill (talk) 15:49, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm certain that the sentence about "bringing the English language back" refers to the second John. Also, according to the ODNB article about the first (the theologian), John of St Germans was a different person again. DuncanHill (talk) 15:58, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Talk:WYRN

message: Some updates regarding WYRN are needed, I think. The station's Arbitron Station Information Profile says there's a gospel format now (but no website is given); WYRN is also now owned by Johnson Media Group, so obviously the sale to them from Curtis Media Group (of which New Century Media Group is one of its many subsidiaries), which is mentioned in the article has having been announced, is now complete. (And the station does not simulcast WQDR from Raleigh anymore. It never simulcast WQDR-FM of course, but I don't know if the simulcast survived the end of news/talk WDOX on 570 AM and its switch to classic country WQDR; obviously WYRN has never carried the brand-new all-comedy programming currently aired on what's now WFNL.)

Talk:List of AM radio stations in the United States by call sign (initial letters WA–WF)

message: At my last edit, Wikipedia reports this article is 162 kilobytes long — that's almost 6,000 lines and is waaay out of line with Wikipedia:Article size guidelines.  It exceeds the capability of the browser on my Windoze system, causing system crashes; the browser on Linux barely handles it.  The article should be broken down into roughly 1,500-line chunks.  I'm suggesting the following breakdown:
*Chunk 1: WA-- through WE--
*Chunk 2: WF-- through WK--
*Chunk 3: WL-- through WR--
*Chunk 4: WS-- through WZ--
That should result in four articles roughly 42 kilobytes in size.  That's still large, but should be manageable for most browsers' editors.—QuicksilverT @ 03:56, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

:The false beards worn by the pharaohs of ancient Egypt were actually the labdanum soaked hair of these goats.

message: Did a 'schism' as such ever actually happen? The Church of the East already thought of itself as a separate church to the one in the Roman Empire from at least 410, and the School of Nisibis wasn't shut down until 489. We don't actually have any evidence in the article that Ephesus I caused a discrete event wherein the two churches separated. The only source in the article, although taken from a compendium published in 2002, must be from the early 20th century given its author's dates, and is therefore seriously outdated. 131.111.5.135 (talk) 14:38, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: To add: chapter 5 of Philip Wood's The Chronicle of Seert (Oxford: OUP, 2013) is an excellent treatment of the issues involved here, and shows how both the Church of the East and Miaphysite sources only later came to retroject onto their own histories the idea of a fifth-century schism over Nestorius that hadn't really happened. 131.111.5.135 (talk) 15:28, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

If it's a 1931 image with an author attribution published in a European Union nation, the copyright must also be respected in the United States, in keeping with the Berne Convention and the URAA. That standard is 95 years after the death of the author, and even under a more liberal interpretation of the relevant laws, it's 70 years after the death of the author.

Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion/User:Rickyrab/New Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense

message: It is not in good taste to go about blocking a user prior to discussing that user's subpages and whether they should be deleted for the express purpose of deleting that user subpage. In my book, this can amount to bullying, especially if the intent is to create a "consensus" without giving the user some say. That's what I have to say on this matter.  —  Rickyrab | Talk 18:32, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to clarify: I do not intend to disrupt Wikipedia or inflame anybody. I just feel Wikipedia's missteps can be entertaining as well as its accomplishments, and recording of some of the sillier moments helps to clear the air. I did not feel that I was "going against consensus" when, in fact, there was no real consensus to be had, and, furthermore, I did not feel that the actions of a few- a very few- Wikipedians against the enjoyment of "Silly Things and Bad Jokes and other Deleted Nonsense" of the many was warranted.

Wikipedia talk:Deletion review/Log/2007 August 29

message: I consider the Deletion review regarding User:Rickyrab/New bad jokes and other deleted nonsense to be a verbal slap to my face, and I was not at the time trying to defy consensus or recreate deleted content. Get the facts straight before debating stuff. Furthermore, mind if I point out that a "consensus" with a vocal minority adamantly disagreeing is not really a consensus?  —  Rickyrab | Talk 18:40, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ahem. I now see that what was going on was an attempt to differentiate what some saw as a recreation of what some of the admins consider to be a deleted or finished project from other material. Nonetheless, deleting the earlier pages - the ones others made - wasn't exactly according to consensus, as no consensus had been reached in that area. (By the way, I disagree with the assertion that the MfD was actually able to end the project - it merely shifted BJAODN to an off-Wikipedia location, possibly multiple locations, rather than ending BJAODN. Therefore, all celebrations and lamentings of the death of BJAODN are premature. I have said this before.)  —  Rickyrab | Talk 19:02, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
Talk:Priscilla (sloop)

message: I hope this sloop is named for the waters it used to sail, because the name title suggests that it's docked on the Long Island Sound, which is only on the North Shore of Long Island.

replies: text: The epithet "Long Island Sound Oyster Sloop" appears to have been applied by the National Park Service in this boat's NRIS entry.  The NHL nomination form describes her (under an "Other Name" heading) as a Great South Bay Oyster Sloop, presumably because that is where she was built.  The statement of significance says "Priscilla is a classic Long Island Sound and Great South Bay oyster dredging sloop".  She appears to have spent the bulk of her working career on the Connecticut shore.  Of the landmarked oyster boats, she is the only one built on the south coast of Long Island.

Talk:Ekottara Agama

message: I know that the title "Ekottara Agama" is often translated as the "Increased by One Discourses" or the "One-Up Discourses," but I'd rather that titles such as these were not used. My reasoning is simply that they sound strange and convey little actual meaning. Whether we take the title to mean "incremented by one" or "numbered from one", the resulting title basically just says that the discourses are numbered, and that they happen to either be increasing by one or starting from one. To me, these things seem very superfluous to put into a "translation" of a title. The basic meaning always goes back to the fact that the Ekottara Agama is a collection of discourses arranged numerically, so I've left it at that: "Numbered Discourses." In English, it's implicit that anything arranged by number like this, is starting from one and being incremented by one.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tengu800 (talk • contribs) 15:18, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
