Talk:Intercontinental Exchange Futures

Talk:Charlie Crist

message: The dictionary defines FELON as a person who has been convicted of a felony. Therefore EX-FELON is an impossibility, a nonsense-term. (Perhaps you could argue it in the case of an appeal, or whatever.) This argument about this term ought to be explained if it is going to be introduced, at least by reference.
(This also applies to EX-MURDERER. And a variety of other exes. Ex applies to functional identities which can change and are not retained as an honorific: ex-girlfriend, ex-wife, but not (barring resurrection) ex-widow.)

thread_title:  St. John’s penny tax 

message: There have been multiple attempts to add "perennial candidate" to the first sentence. The term is generally pejorative, and should not be added to the lead until it is commonly used by independent reliable sources to describe Crist. Schazjmd (talk) 14:38, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: For the record, it is exceptionally rare for a politician who has won major office to be widely labelled a "perennial candidate"; Harold Stassen is the only example I can think of. It's obvious that the attempt to include perennial candidate here at the moment is not in good faith. Curbon7 (talk) 19:21, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

text: I concur that there is no justification for applying that term to Crist. I've known some genuine perennial candidates, and Crist doesn't fall into that category. (It's worth noting for the record that Stassen was at one time a serious contender, and only after decades of increased futility did he acquire that reputation.) --Orange Mike | Talk 19:55, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Leadbetter Beach

message: I just added the words about Leadbetter being artificial.  This is just a summary of some things I learned while I was at the Santa Barbara City College.  There are a lot more details and a huge history about the harbor itself and how wrongly placed it is.  When I have more energy I intend to find some oceonagraphic articles about the beach, the and the downshore currents.
Also, Leadbetter has another name with the locals, Auroro Burro or something like that, but since I can't exactly remember what it's called or find any information on it throught the web I left it out. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.88.132.230 (talk • contribs) 00:04, 28 July 2005  (UTC)

thread_title: Article removed from [[Wikipedia:Good articles]]

message: This isn't worth mentioning in the article, but thought I should post a warning here. Ilaria Micheli (2018) Grammatical Sketch and Short Vocabulary of the Ogiek Language of Mariashoni (EUT Edizioni Università di Trieste), p. 2, incorrectly says there is a click consonant in a word  'horn' attested by Distefano, but Distefano never says such a thing. He compares *lan 'horn' to "Khoisan" tlana 'horn'. This is actually Sandawe tláná 'horn', and even that doesn't have a click. Though it would be interesting if the words were related. — kwami (talk) 23:56, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Organization 

message: Isabel...  Izebel...  Jezebel is how it gets translated in Greek...  Which is DUMB, because even in Greek, Ἰεζάβελ is pronounced Izevel.  The name shares origins with elishiva.  Perhaps the "bell" was added by the gals...  Or it could be another case of the "el" fragment...  not sure, to be honest.  Worth looking into.Lostubes (talk) 23:56, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  not "Jezebel" 

message: This is very confusing to me:
"Ahab ... reigned for twenty-two years. Albright dated his reign to 869–850 BC, Thiele offered 874–853 BC, Coogan [proposes] 871–852 BC."
The sidebar says "ca. 885 - 874."
So, first, the sidebar has no attribution or citation. Second, the reign is claimed as being 22 years, but the scholars cited list date ranges of 19 years each. Third, all of those conflict with the proposed range listed in the sidebar, which is 11 years, unless the sidebar is using "Reign" to list proposed dates for when his reign began, rather than its span, which is unclear. So what am I missing here? Do the 22 years refer to some ancient Semitic lunar calendar, while the cited dates are for the contemporary calendar? What does the "Reign" section of the sidebar refer to? Can someone who knows this subject clarify this in the text, please?DILNN1 (talk) 05:23, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

I was recently perusing this wiki in order to edit some information on the robotics team, and found that it could benefit from having its "Notable" section divided into "Sports" and "Clubs". The current organization makes it difficult to find info "at a glance," and together with an updated list of all the clubs/activities available at the high school would be more useful to prospective students and those trying to get an idea of what's available at this school.

:I certainly think he loved her.  But I don't have a source on that.  Isaac Asimov wrote an excellent Shakespeare commentary, but I don't have access to that anymore.  The best I can do for a source on whether Claudius felt bad about Gertrude's death was that in the 1996 film version, he looks quite unhappy.  CanadianCaesar 05:14, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

And there ain't no article about TDM's in general (yet).

thread_title:  TDM's 

message: There are two definitions of TDM as Time Division Multiplexing. The second is under Technology, and is the common technical use of the term. The first definition of Time Division Multiplexing is under Entertainment, and is a proprietary adaption of the common usage to a particular application.
There are problems with this first definition:
1) This Disambiguation entry should be under Technology, not Entertainment.
2) The description is overlong for a Disambiguation.
3) The link goes to the page describing the common usage of Time Division Multiplexing.
4) There doesn't appear to be a page describing this particular adaption of Time Division Multiplexing.
I suggest that the Disambiguation entry is removed, and (if necessary) the information added as a note to the Time Division Multiplexing page.

message: I'm very surprised by the association of korrigan with a female-only type of fearies. I'm Breton and all the stories I've ever read and heard about korrigans have them as a people of males and females. Actually by far most of the stories I know involve male korrigans.
This article is actually contradictory with the French article which (to me) seems much more accurate. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korrigan
Yeah, I live in Brittanny and I've never heard of this (the english wiki) version of the Korrigan.
:I've seen both female Korriganed and male Korred, if any native Bretons can confirm those two terms as the correct ones. The Korriganed are beautiful water spirits that are the ghosts or daughters of druidesses and live in fountains, while the Korred are ugly, misshapen dwarf-like spirits that have horns, cat paws, and hooves, and protect the dolmens and standing stones.

As far as I know, the entire body of discussions relevant to the Race and Intelligence article is present via the "history" records.

There is no point of not archiving stale discussions. When a page gets longer than 32 K, then not all people may be able to edit the page and contribute to it. And those of us who have slow phone connections may be inconvenienced if it takes several minutes for a whole discussion to load. I think most of us already understand that point.
