message: Is there a citation for this claim or a clarification of what Napoléon's method was (and how it differed from Borda's)?
"In 1770, Borda formulated a ranked preferential voting system that is referred to as the Borda count. The French Academy of Sciences used Borda's method to elect its members for about two decades until it was quashed by Napoleon Bonaparte who insisted that his own method be used after he became president of the Académie in 1801."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.47.69.23 (talk) 01:28, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Napoléon's Method? 

message: It says under the section, Tables of Logarithms:
"With the advent of the metric system after the French Revolution it was decided that the quarter circle should be divided into 100 degrees instead of 90 degrees, and the degree into 100 seconds instead of 60 seconds."
Then beneath it in the same section:
"...the Quarter of the Circle divided into 100 degrees, the degree into 100 minutes, and the minute into 100 seconds..."
The first says from degrees to seconds; the second says from degrees to minutes to seconds.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.153.48.149 (talk) 05:04, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible Inaccuracy 

message: I see no reason to qualify Borda as a "political scientist". It is true that the so-called Borda count is an election method, but it is a very small thing in his life, and he himself apparently did not relate this suggestion to political matters. Reading the (very detailled and lengthy !) book on his life, one can see that the Borda rule was defined by an enginner, not by a political scientist!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Girifou (talk • contribs) 13:31, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: According to information posted at the San Francisco National Maritime Museum, the gross tonnage is 2420. If memory serves, 1 kg = 2.2 lbs. 5,324 happens to be 2.2 x 2,420.

Talk:The Regular Guys

message: The firing of Eric VonH was the epic downfall of the on air run and turned many long time listeners away from the less grounded format. The target audience shifted dramatically from 18 - 40 year old men to 23-35 year old women. Management must also have promoted this new format, as the topics and show demeanor attract more females and homosexual males than ever before.  Unfortunately, recovery from the loss of such a valuable team member as Eric VonH is not possible and most former listeners are very much against the current format where Larry's opinion and rudeness dominate the show to satisfy the current target audience.
Tried to expand upon knowledge of the Regular Guys show. Still could use further information, but this is a healthy start.

Talk:Nonlinear magnetic field

message: I disagree with merging this into magnetic field.  Certainly Maxwell's equations hold classically, and (as the author of the article points out) the Divergence theorem makes this knot business impossible.  This does not appear to be anything even resembling mainstream physics, at least not without more information (see below), and isn't particularly comprehensible either.  Deletion seems most sensible to me.  -- SCZenz 00:32, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: There is such a thing as a magnetic knot in the context of plasma physics. This would not be the first time someone has taken a phenomena in plasmas and confused it. There are such things as nonlinear magnetic fields; just not what this anon has written about, so it might make sense to redirect to magnetic field. Salsb 01:34, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Index of Cameroon-related articles

message: This page links to Koko, which I guess is some famous name for Cameroon, but unfortunately, the link to Kotoko (KOTOKO) is assigned to a japanese artist. Should an explanation be given ? I've been searching around for the name "Kotoko", but related to Cameroon to clear things up, but apparently, I have not enough knowledge in these fields to write another Kotoko article for it. So I think we should add a disambiguation page somewhat like the Vietnamese page to clear things up .. | ipridian 10:20, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The Kotoko are an ethnic group (it may also be the name of a town; I can't remember off the top of my head). I'll try to write something short on them later today under the title Kotoko people. —BrianSmithson 13:41, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I wrote up the kingdom instead. See Kotoko kingdom. Kotoko is now a disambiguation page. The fact that the Japanese singer spells the name in all caps makes a page move unnecessary for that particular article. —BrianSmithson 21:08, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I just went through and added everything from :Category:Cameroon that wasn't here. No promises that I spelled everything correctly, though.

Talk:Abdullah Yusuf Ali

message: I added the cleanup-importance tag because I cannot see from this article alone why the man might be noteworthy.

There must be thousands of published experts on the Quran, most of which probably have some opinions about politics in South Asia.

message: Didn't Lillian Carter get quoted during the Iran Hostage Crisis that we should drop a nuclear bomb on Iran?  I came here looking for the exact quote and found no mention of this.  I'm almost certain she said it, because it caused a big stir in the media and she had to immediately retract that statement.

message: Just FYI - the real, correct term is luminophore, not lumophore.  I'm not sure how to go about fixing it at this point.  A lot of people, incorrectly, use lumophore when they actually mean luminophore, so it's probably worth having a stub here, but we should avoid the spreading of poor terminology, even if it's commonly used poor terminology.

Talk:Centerfold

message: Is the picture of Monroe REALLY needed to explain what a centerfold is?  As I mentioned on the photo's talk page itself, I believe the photo to be pornographic.  I work hard to keep smut away from my kids, and then, when I delete the photo from the article, it gets put back with no explanation as to why it was put back up.  Minizilla (talk) 01:09, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for your comment, but please accept the fact that highly personal motives cannot serve as a sufficient reason for removing content or images from an encyclopedic article. The photo doesn't meet the criteria of pornography at all. --Catgut (talk) 12:25, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

text: The image seems appropriate to the article, and bearing in mind Wikipedia is not censored, the image should remain. Peptastic (talk) 06:20, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

text: OK, so Wikipedia isn't censored.  That having been said, what if I uploaded a photo of, for example, a woman being raped (found easily on the internet, as sad as that is), and linked it to the article on rape, it would be A-OK?  Somehow, I feel that it would be taken down and my account banned or something.  Despite the fact that the photo would indeed correspond to the article, as the naked photo of Marilyn Monroe seems to do for Centerfold.  Don't get me wrong.  I love wikipedia.  I use it daily.  It is a great source of free information.  But there ought to be some kind of limits of some kind, in my mind.  Again, it is only my opinion and contention, but I will not be moved from them.  Minizilla (talk) 00:46, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

text: The picture is highly relevant and necessary to increase the readers' understanding of the topic, by presenting a quintessential visual example; its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. Wikipedia is not censored, and this image is no worse than the picture of Michelangelo's David, nor the photos in our articles on penis, breast, and vagina. DHowell (talk) 04:45, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Christian amendment

message: I've tried to be true to the sources, but my lack of specific knowledge on this issue (I just heard the 3 June 2005 This American Life episode and figured Wikipedia needed an article on this, so I went Googling...) has resulted in some waffling in certain places. It would be nice if someone with more knowledge could polish this a bit more. A good place to start might be (TAL interviewee) Isaac Kramnick's book, The Godless Constitution (). By the way, he says that amendments were proposed in 1874, 1894, 1910, 1947 and 1954, but I couldn't verify these exact years, so I just referred to them by decade. - dcljr (talk) 02:04, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: misc

message: The first problem with this post is the lack of information that is given, especially for the background of the group. A majority of the background is about the name of the group. There must be some credible sources in the scholarly literature that give basic information regarding Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades. Another problem is the list of attacks that are attributed to the group. There isn't hardly any direct links that allow for the reader to check the actual event and reassure the credibility of the author. I also would advise that the credibility section be more in depth. This section seems more like opinionated statements from readings than actual data or cited information which gives the author less credibility. I think if you are going to write a page about this particular group then rather use a credibility section to basically say the group may not even exist, maybe do more research and find facts that prove that this group does indeed exist.
