Talk:Criticisms of Mother Teresa

message: See also the vote in the MT talk page, question 4 is this question exactly
*Criticisms of Mother Teresa
** Redundant with Mother Teresa, has been split away from the main article in violation of NPOV by User:Jtdirl without prior discussion.—Eloquence 21:16, Oct 19, 2003 (UTC)
** Not reduntant. Doing an RK-style edit (as RK did with Mel Gibson) Eloquence decided to add in a large chuck of detailed questionable analysis into the original article, making 30% about the person, 70% one person's critique of her policies based on a TV show. That is not how you write a biographical entry, as the discussion over what RK did in Mel Gibson showed. I moved the detailed critique to a linked article, and replaced it with a short paragraph in the original text which explained that serious criticisms of Mother Theresa's missionary organisation and her associations had been made. I then explained, as is standard, that the full details could be found at Criticisms of Mother Theresa. Others previously had criticised Eloquence's add-in as unreadable and convoluted, not to mention hardly NPOV. Having the critique separate allows that page to be linked elsewhere and to be edited separately, as much of it has questionable content. (Eloquence's knowledge of 'facts' in it is so questionable that he thought MT extreme in Catholicism for opposing abortion in the case of incest and rape. Duh! That is standard Roman Catholic belief. If he doesn't even grasp something as simple as RC views on abortion, you can imagine how many other clangers are in his add-in. FearÉIREANN 21:33, 19 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Talk:British Israelism

message: Hello,
I’m an employee at The First Church of Christ, Scientist. The bullet in this article listing Mary Baker Eddy as an adherent is unsourced. Eddy was not an adherent of British Israelism. See Peel, Robert (1977), Mary Baker Eddy: The Years of Authority, Holt, Rinehart, and Winston. pp. 114-119. Would you please consider removing the bullet of Eddy from the list? FirsthandPOV-CCS (talk) 19:42, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm inclined to agree solely on the basis that calling her an "adherent" has a deeper implication.  However, it should be noted that there are a number of sources that show her attraction to Totten's work and that she did briefly "flirt" with the notion of BI.  But that wouldn't, in my mind, qualify as an "adherent".  It would need more clear qualification for inclusion elsewhere in the article where the relationship could be more succinctly explained, so I have removed it from the bullet list.

Talk:Image segment

message: "The goal to automatically segment images into semantically meaningful parts is very difficult to achieve." And yet, the smallest bird can do it. Doesn't this suggest that the researchers are possibly barking up the wrong tree? The answer probably is quite simple, once the problem is seen differently. I'm not saying I have any particular insight into this, only that it is observable in nature in creatures with very small brains. Figuring out how they do it might be more fruitful than trying to crack the problem from first principles. Having worked for many years on image processing and also being acquainted with one of the field's prominent researchers, it amazes me still how a seagull can determine from a height of 30 feet or more from the ground what is a nutritious speck and what is merely an inedible fragment of rock, and that's in a moving image! Just thought IO'd mention this, obviously it's not something that belongs in this (or any other) article. GRAHAMUK 06:55, 20 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Talk:List of Latin names of regions

message: I'm starting to have real trouble with this page. It's all the work of one anonymous person, and there are some very suspicious constructs here.
1) It does not take a genius to add the Latin for East or West to a Latin (or non-latin) name and  claim it is the latin name of the region. Referring to Australia Occidentalis is no more enlightening than Bromwich Occidentalis. 
2) Is there any evidence that the term is used? Was "Columbia Britannicum" ever in common use by the pioneer settlers of British Columbia?
3) Some of this stuff is just done by translating one word at a time. Nova Eburaca is just 'New' prefixing the Roman name of the city of York.
4) Vasintonia seems to be just a transliteration of 'Washington'. Why would 'Washington' even have a Latin name?
5) If North Dakota is 'Dakota Borealis' why is 'Australia Borealis' South Australia?
6) Is it really useful to know that the Latin for 'Phocis' is 'Phocis'?
7) Cansa is Spanish. see http://skyways.lib.ks.us/genweb/archives/1912/k/kansas.html
I'm going to put this on 'factual dispute' and cleanup. 
DJ Clayworth 14:59, 20 Oct 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: You might want to read the discussion and introduction at Latin names of cities, then.  I added an explanation of the process, who uses them, and why they are useful there.  You are going to get a fair bit of variation in something like this, also, and only a few of them are really standardized.  Personally, I suspect that most of these could be merged into something like Neo-Latin place names, but I suspect that merging the tables might be a ticklish task. --- Smerdis of Tlön 02:25, 21 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Talk:Di Penates

message: They were usually represented with a disproportioned penis and their statues were above the entrance door (or sometimes over the roofs) of Roman houses and villas.
This is from a previous version of the article, which assumed that penates came from penis, the Latin word for tail.  Given that it actually comes from penus, referring to stored stuff, I think it needs to be reviewed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Josh Grosse (talk • contribs) 20 October 2003
In all my studies of the romans, I have never heard of any such disproportioned statues, and if this is true I was also misled about the derivation of the name. I think it needs to be heavily researched before it's re-added. I'll add this to my watch list and see what I can do. Ministry of Silly Walks 03:46, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Etymology studies will not support that Penus means Penis. Because you can penetrate to impregnate does not mean a narrow understanding of Penis. There are many words of Pen- "almost" and "head".
Now read about Latin suffix: second and third declensions.
http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/2139/what-is-the-plural-of-penis 
From that web site. "Part of the problem is that when unaccented, the singular endings -us and -is tend to be pronounced the same in English".
"One other group of Latin nouns in -us is different. These are fourth-declension masculine nouns".
I am asking for someone to link Latin Penus to Lares (Penates: 1505–15; < L Penātēs, akin to penus stock of provisions). 
(hope I did this on the correct page and forum, thanks).65.66.155.37 (talk) 16:53, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: What are you getting at?  The word "penus" does not appear anywhere in the article, which says that the word penis comes from the Latin for "tail".  This is supported by the etymology given in the Oxford English Dictionary: "< classical Latin pēnis tail, the male genital organ < the same Indo-European base as Sanskrit pasas, ancient Greek πέος. Compare French pénis (1618 as penis; subsequently from 1753)."  The OED supports the two plural forms given in the article ("penises" and "penes") and also mentions that the irregular form "peni" is in use. -- AJR | Talk 00:28, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Both characters may seem the same ones, but for Unicode, they are not. Depending on the font one may use to see the text, the monotonic tonos may be a vertical stroke, which is not relevant with ancient Greek words, spelled with polytonic orthography, not monotonic one.
