Portal talk:Biology

message: Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018.
Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, and design the portals of the future.
As of April 29th, membership is at 56 editors, and growing.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for each component of portals.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject.      — The Transhumanist    03:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

message: I came across the article Pyruvate cycling earlier today. The article as it stands is almost impossible for someone well versed in the area to comprehend, and it appears to simply be a WP:COATRACK for a load of papers. It doesn't seem like a legit article at this point. I'm sure the topic is legit, but the article is nowhere near Wikipedia standards. Can someone more versed in this take a look as I'll only delete all the further reading and coatrack elements. Cheers. Canterbury Tail talk 11:50, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

message: Last year I added the following details to the history section, which have subsequently been removed:
The school occupied the buildings that formerly made up Glenmore Elementary School, which was closed the previous year along with several other schools in West Vancouver. Parents, students and teachers protested the closure of Glenmore, but were unsuccessful in keeping the school open in the face of declining enrollment and a reduced education budget.
These events seem relevant to the school's history, and were reported in city newspapers (and are therefore verifiable). Does anybody have an opinion as to whether I should re-include these facts? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dbarefoot (talk • contribs) 20:54, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Georges Auguste Escoffier

message: i cant finish this right now Cacophony 01:39, Feb 6, 2005 (UTC)
Georges Auguste Escoffier (1846 - 1935) was a French chef nicknamed The King of Chefs and the Chef of Kings.  His innovations revolutinized the culinary industry.
His culinary career began at the age of 13 when he moved to Nice to work in the kichen of his uncle's restraunt.  Six years later he was discovered by the owner of Le petit Moulin Rouge and was offered a job at what was then the most fashionable restraunt in Paris.  He worked there until 1870 when the Franco-Prussian War called him to military duty, where he served as Chef de Cuisine.  After the war he returned to the Moulin Rouge and was the chef there until 1878. 
In 1890 he paired with Cesar Ritz to run the sucessful Savoy Hotel in London.  They opened the Hôtel Ritz Paris in 1898 and the Carlton Hotel in London in 1899, where Escoffier was chef until 1919.   In 1920 Escoffier became the first chef to be induceted into the Légion d'honneur.
His innovations include the reorginization of the kitchen from several small rooms into one fully integrated unit.
Escoffier is crowned with his highlight achievement for creating the secret sauce on McDonalds "Big Mac", and it has been rumored that he was was a huge advocate for legalizing the medical use of marijuana in california where he ultimately finished his life, after opening the now successfull restaurant chain Taco Bell

Talk:Taygete

message: As the Wikipedia article says:
"Artemis turned Taygete into a doe, and since in this form Zeus raped her, any distinction between the Titaness in her human form and in her doe form is blurred. As Pindar conceived the myth-element in his third Olympian Ode, "the doe with the golden horns, which once Taygete had inscribed as a sacred dedication to Artemis Orthosia," ("right-minded" Artemis) was the very Cerynian Hind that Heracles later pursued. For the knowledgeable poet, the transformation was incomplete, and the doe-form became an offering."
My question is about this part:
"For the knowledgeable poet, the transformation was incomplete, and the doe-form became an offering."
What does this mean the incomplete transformation as an offering? (Anon. User:70.178.238.83)
:Terrible! That was me that wrote that baffling babble. Is this edited version better?
:"Artemis turned Taygete into a doe, and since in this form Zeus raped her, any distinction between the Titaness in her human form and in her doe form is blurred: the nymph who hunted the doe in the company of Artemis is the doe herself. As Pindar conceived the myth-element in his third Olympian Ode, "the doe with the golden horns, which once Taygete had inscribed as a sacred dedication to Artemis Orthosia," ("right-minded" Artemis) was the very Cerynian Hind that Heracles later pursued. Pindar, who was a very knowledgeable mythographer, hints that the mythic doe, even when slain and offered to Artemis, also continues to exist, to be hunted once again (though not killed) by Hercules at a later time."

message: , it looks like I reverted this edit and this edit just now. The article is indeed described as original scientific research, but it's part of a published journal, hence there's a presumption that journal editors reviewed it before publishing. Internally, that article references the next sentence after the disputed one to an earlier 2009 article by the same author, published in a different publication, and in turn articles from other authors from 1970, 1983, 2000. This makes it likely to be a secondary source. You should probably address any issues with this source separately. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 18:58, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
