Talk:Carlos Moyá

message: I ignore what is the correct, if Carles or Carlos, if Moya, Moyà or Moyá, but the names (and less the surnames) are translated to one language to the other. To say that the name is Moyá in Spanish and Moyà in Catalan isn't consistent. Llull 13:51, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: How is this inconsistent? It seems to be a fact it is Moyà in Catalan. What is not a fact is how you spell it in Spanish, with an accent or not. --Cantus 23:56, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: In the article there are two versions, Moyá and Moyà. Only one of them can be the correct form. The surnames are never translated. And the name only in special cases like kings and popes. This isn't one of this cases. I have a Catalan and a Spanish surname, two both can be translated but always are used equal everywhere. The translation of the names and surnames is considered offensive. One of the forms must be deleted. Llull 21:20, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Codec

message: I suggest that the "endec" article should be merged with the "codec" article, since the current version of the endec leaves me confused about the distinction (if any) between an "endec" and a "codec".
Even if there is some subtle distinction, perhaps they are similar enough that a single article describing both of them (and also the subtle distinction between them) would be better than 2 separate articles -- similar to the way one article covers both Myanmar and Burma.

Talk:Ruska Pravda

message: TO WHOEVER MADE CHANGES TO THIS PAGE:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I understand your desire to edit a few things here and there in this article and restore historic names, but at least bother to change the links as well when you change their names. I spent all day translating this article from Russian into English and all you do is change names to their Ukrainian versions, even though most American Sovietologists (let's call them like this) use Russian names when talking about "RusskaYA Pravda" or "Pravda YaroslavichEY". Please, from now on do it like this: 1) place Ukrainian original names NEXT to the Russian names IN BRACKETS or IN ITALIC, 2) if you do insist on changing LINKED WORDS, then please create APPROPRIATE LINKS. That would really help prevent all the mess from taking place.
Thank you.
KNewman
Dear Mr/Ms KNewman,
one of the most imporatnt policies of Wikipedia is verifiability, i.e. relyable sorces should be cited. I added a reference naming the subject of article "Ruska Pravda" (instead of "Russkaya Pravda"). Then I modified the page accordingly. I hope you'll prefer avoiding edit wars. --AndriyK 21:57, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Sorry.  Of course \rho(g^n) = \rho(g)^n, since \rho is a group homomorphism.

thread_title:  nth Frobenius-Schur indicator 

message: The idea that real representations are real vector spaces in mathematics and complex vector spaces in physics is at best an oversimplification and I doubt it stands up to any scrutiny in reliable sources. For instance, Majorana and Majorana-Weyl spinors are real representations in physics, and are certainly real vector spaces. I'm rewriting the article accordingly.

thread_title: Maths and physics

message: IMHO, the reference to the book of Serre is misleading. This book rather deals with rational representations (and thereby with real ones) but not in a context together with representations of real/complex/quaternionic type and with complex (conjugate) vector spaces as one would expect in retrieving this article.
It is really sad that there is so little to be found in literature about (ir)reps of those three types. The still best one I checked out is the book of Bröcker/tom Dieck on reps of compact groups (a large chapter), and also a small section in Cornwell I.

The criticisms article has multiple issues as described by the templates on the page, but I think the biggest single issue is that it should not even exist. Second Life has this article. Criticism of Second Life belongs here. Both articles are in need of updates, and having two splits any editor effort across the two, and there may be duplication too.

Talk:Cecelia Holland

message: Okay. I've done a bunch of copyediting on other folks' pages, I've added to and 
enhanced other pages, but this is the first (major) article I've posted from scratch.
 
I know a lot about this author, both personally and critically, and I need some guidance regarding how much interpretative criticism is "allowed" without seeming to lose the NPOV. My comments are a distillation of reading a very large number of reviews over several decades (I'm a librarian in a large urban system with a major involvement in collection development); for that reason, I would be hard put to attribute a particular critique to a particular source. But I've tried to exclude my own personal tastes and favorites. At the same time, simply saying "American author, wrote these books" doesn't seem to do any service to the reader.
I haven't been able to find a discussion anywhere on the subject of "averaged out" literary criticism vs. NPOV. Any suggestions?
: Michael K. Smith 17:31, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  I'd suggest that 'her style is impeccable' is transparently not encyclopaedic or NPOV. "Simply saying "American author, wrote these books" doesn't seem to do any service to the reader." Perhaps, but that is not an excuse to then insert some of your personal views. It is not a choice between your personal praise and having not evaluative material whatsoever. Rather, if what you say about her style is correct, it stands to reason she will have received similar praise from other sources (reviews) and these sources may be quoted with the correct citations along with any dissenting opinions. As it stands this article is a hymn to a certain author by Michael K Smith, not an encyclopedic entry upon the author and what praise, if any, she has received from significant literary figures. 94.193.220.27 (talk) 02:33, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I have attempted to improve the neutrality of the article, by the removal of the most grossly non-encyclopedic words and phrases.  Really, what it needs, if any comment on her style is to be made, is some quotations from proper literary critics.  I have seen articles DELETED for less blatant bias.  oh, and I LIKE her work a lot.

: "Non-indexed eponymal citedness (NIEC): first fact-finding examination of a phenomenon of scientific literature." Endre Száva-Kováts. Journal of Information Science, 1994 20:55 
This is only one article, and it's not exclusively about eponymous constants, but I think it provides enough basis that the list could meet WP:LISTN that deleting it should be debated at WP:AfD if anyone cares to nominate it. —Ben Kovitz (talk) 12:19, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you actually have access to that? As far as I can tell by the abstract, it hardly (if at all) relates to eponymous constants, but rather is more about the Ortega hypothesis and citations. 786b6364 (talk) 16:14, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes, I have access to the article, and yes, it is mainly about citations. It does not establish that the present list is notable, but I thought it provided enough evidence that it shouldn't be ded. If you're curious, the article addresses the major premise in the argument against the Ortega hypothesis: that citation counts fairly reflect the importance of scientific contributions. It presents the results of a study of eponyms in scientific literature. The result is that usually when a journal paper refers to a unit, constant, technique, device, etc. that is named after a scientist (an "eponym"), that paper will not cite the person who is the namesake of the unit, constant, technique, etc. Early papers cite it more; later papers cite it less. If you'd like to trigger a more thorough search for citations to establish notability of the present list, and possibly see this list deleted, you can nominate it for deletion. —Ben Kovitz (talk) 21:46, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I've listed all the airports in Canada. I've used the CFS so they are listed by that name as I don't have access to all the names that the airport authority uses. I felt that sorting by IATA code would no longer work as not all will have codes. Also, listing by ICAO looked odd and was akward to search through, so it's alphabetical. If there are any major complaints as to the way it's listed I can quite easily change them.
I didn't bother making links for the heliports as they change too often to really be any use. If you look at List of stations of the Paris Métro I see that they linked stations that did not have an article back to List of stations of the Paris Métro. I think that it's a bit confusing and does not show which ones are in need of attention. Again, if any major concerns it's easy to change. The links that are valid should lead directly to the airport and not to redirect page.
The list is valid until 0901Z 27 October 2005 and depending on when the new CFS comes in I will update it. The problem is the CFS can be up to 2 weeks late.
