Category talk:Archaeological sites in the United States

message: I've fleshed this out, but feel free to make any subcats that are needed. pschemp | talk 07:37, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: earlier comments

message: Contradict me if anyone cares to offer a different definition, but I always thought that Archaeology (and I'm pretty sure on this) is the study of man-made historical features and civilisation, thus I would question the presence of the Grand Canyon and other natural/geological features being listed in this category.  I would say that the Grand Canyon is primarily a Geological feature, and most certainly not an archaeological feature.  Any archaeology to do with the Grand Canyon is merely secondary surely. Superbfc 21:49, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Depends on your point of view.  There are archaeological sites there, and if you are mostly interested in archaeology, then it wouldn't be secondary to you.  The category is not named :Category:Sites that are primarily archaeological.  I see categories as an aid to reserach, and as such, I think everything with a site should be listed so that people can search for them. Nothing in this category doesn't have a site in its borders.  As wikipedia has no paper limits, I feel it is a good thing to draw attention to whatever features a place may have, and there is no reason to limit accessability to knowledge. pschemp | talk 22:10, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Archaeology is indeed the study of cultural (i.e. man-made) remains, and has absolutely nothing to do with dinosaurs and/or fossils (this is the realm of the palaeontologist). It is a fairly common misconception that archaeology is about "everything that is really, really old" and therefore it is common to find for instance dinosaur sites and bronze age sites classed under the same category. This is mainly an American phenomenon, as archaeology here is closer to the natural sciences than it is in for instance Europe. As an archaeologist I have to say that grouping "everything really old" under the same category is wrong, and I believe most palaeontologists would agree with me.--Grumpy444grumpy 10:01, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Ford AXOD transmission

message: This page really should serve as a warning that these models of automatic transmission are infamously unreliable and that people should steer clear of the taurus and any other vehicle that has been hopelessly hobbled by being fitted with one of these worthless examples of automotive engineering. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.7.59.159 (talk) 09:07, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Reliability?

message: Generally I agree with the comments. 87 AXOD failed at 85k miles. Overhaul relatively cheap at $2k including shift kit and motor mounts. Still functioning well at 152k miles. Repair shop stated failures were due to lack of lubrication. Shift kit and additional fluid resolved the problem. Auto transmissions do wear out regardless of make or service interval. My 05 Sable LS has the AX4N and is much improved over the AXOD. AXOD wasn't cptr controlled so does hunt on climbs. For traffic or long climbs use D and lock OD out. Safety and less wear and tear. The Duratec 30 and 4N has better manners and much more power. 4N service interval is 30k. I test for color comparison to new and dark or black isn't acceptable. I use 20k miles interval or less if indicated. The 4N has a large pan so is messy to drain - no plug. Big plus is reusable semi permanent gasket. I added 5 quarter sized 30lb pull magnets to the 2 inch Ford magnet to trap ferris debris. The filter is good for 100 micron debris my opinion. My 05 Accord doesn't have a servicible filter. It has a strainer for diagnostic purposes only. 3.5 qts per year for me and not the Honda normal 105k interval.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by RogerB34 (talk • contribs) 20:26, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Discourse representation theory

message: The article's last sentence "DRT is now the main framework used for the formal treatment of natural language in semantics." is not accurate. While it is true that DRT is a framework that is "alive", it is not true that it is the main framework used for the formal treatment of natural language in semantics. Arguably that would be a Montague-style semantics.
Edit:
Though Montague-style semantics are still used and are a rather prominent way to capture natural language in a formal way, DRT is the by far more sufficient method. Thinking of the famous donkey-pronouns there is no way we can deal with these cases in a real (hardcore) Montague framework.
Nevertheless, this shouldn't result in a ideological debate about whose theory/method/... is the nicest, ...

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/London Buses route 4

message: Hi.
I was the one who created this article (and 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 96), and despite the result of the debate saying delete, I think that it should have been kept. 
This bus route was created on 8th November 1961 as part of the trolleybus replacement scheme. Trolleybuses 521 (Holborn & North Finchley), 621 (Holborn & North Finchley), 609 (Moorgate & Barnet), and 641 (Moorgate & Winchmore Hill) were replaces by bus routes 4 (Waterloo & Finsbury Park), 43 (Friern Barnet & London Bridge), 104 (Moorgate & Barnet), 141 (Grove Park & Winchmore Hill), 141A (Grove Park & Finsbury Park), 168 (Putney & Turnpike Lane), 221 (Farringdon Street & North Finchley)
I was going to continue expanding this page once I'd gathered even more information, because I believe that this isn't enough to create an interesting article. --sonicKAI 10:02, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I also have one eye on what will happen if/when similar categories for the other nations appear - Wikipedia's NPOV policy re: Ireland is to use "Northern Ireland" and "Republic of Ireland" as adjectives, so :Category:Northern Ireland footballers and :Category:Republic of Ireland footballers would become potentially confusing.

message: This is not what I understand sennin to be. I'm reading Braziller's Japanese Ghosts & Demons. They have a chapter devoted to them and link them with the Taoist hsien, or Eight Immortals - various mythical semi-dieties who had achieved a kind of enlightenment and immortality. Sennin is just the Japanese version of the Chinese word - it may have come to refer to some group of real people even ninjas but I Googled around and, other than this entry and its mirrors, they tend to support what I've read:
*http://www.pantheon.org/articles/s/sennin.html
*http://www.trocadero.com/Kris/items/85308/item85308.html
Gama is certainly one of these 8 Immortals (there are a shifting line up).
The only place I can find a reference to sennin as ninja is in Naruto:
*http://www.narutoex.com/do_notdirect_link/rank.html
Also the only articles that link here are fictional.
