Talk:Biostratigraphy

message: This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 21 January 2020 and 10 May 2020. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Salll327.
=== Question in regards to type of article ===
Hello All,
I've noticed a few places where American English and British English collide, is this page meant to be written in one or the other? I changed a three places where I saw the contradiction from British to American, however I would like to verify these changes. I will be looking for places to add more citations as well. --Salll327 (talk) 15:39, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: Relative dating includes many things other than biostratigraphy, as shown very elegantly in Woudloper's diagram in the relative dating article :File:Cross-cutting relations.svg. Basically you can determine the presence of separate sedimentary sequences and intrusive/metamorphic/tectonic events using such observations, but you need biostratigraphy to date the sediments and radiometric dating to put it all in an absolute framework.

thread_title: Not Equinoxes

message: I have added this important link to the St Sulpice organ website. I have also adjusted the number of stops stated from 101 to 102, because of course the instrument when constructed by Cavaille-Coll was 100 stops, gaining the extra two principal stops on the Pedale in 1934 (courtesy of 'Societe Cavaille-Coll'), making 102 in total.
The reference to the earlier Clicquot pipework is also extremely important, as over one third of the pipework in the St Sulpice organ is 18th Century and was carefully preserved by Cavaille-Coll (the Organ specification on the website provides an indication of the origin of the stops by date). This was not a unique technique by this builder; he was extremely aware of the genius of the 18th Century organ builders and wished if at all possible to preserve the qualities of the 18th Century 'classical' organ and integrate them with his own 'Romantic' ideals of the mid-19th Century. In many respects, this is one of the underlying achievements and genius of this organ, and in scale this 'synthesis between old and new' is probably unparalled anywhere else.

Talk:List of Soap Opera Digest Awards

message: This is a proposal that 1st Opera Digest Awards, 2nd Opera Digest Awards etc. are merged together into a single article.
A single page, fundamentally a table of years and awards and then contents might be more informative and enable easier sight of multiple receipients (whether show or actor).
Additionally this set of pages looks to be a Wikipedia:Walled garden, but it would be more useful (imo, but this is a discussion starting poin!t) to link to a page with all awards than to a few pages

thread_title:  Edition Due to Academic Requirement 

message: This section of the article needs two things done to it. First, it needs to be consolidated into a readable/presentable format. It's currently difficult to read. The way it's organized, it doesn't really add to the article. Second, this web page appears to be the source for the content. The content has been poorly paraphrased (plagiarized in a couple of instances), and the source has not be cited. This section could stand to be condensed into a readable format that doesn't more or less repeat the original content. The source also needs to be cited. Lostraven (talk) 14:07, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Talk:List of Bradford Bulls players

message: A few notes:
1. I split the tables mainly because before you couldn't distinguish between the Northern players and the SL players unless you happened to know, which sort of defeats the object of having the list.
2. I have, as far as I know, only included players for the Super League side that have actually played for the first team. So, for example, I didn't include Ryan Hudson and Higham.
3. The nationality flag... not sure what to do about that? At the moment its use is confused between nationaility and the national side that a player may have played for. As an example Graham Mackay is, to my mind, rightly shown as Australian in the players section and as having played for Scotland in the rep section. However, James Lowes played for both GB and Ireland and is shown as Irish in the players section. Maybe, at some point, I'll make place of birth the criteria for the players page?

thread_title: Untitled

message: I don't understand the point of this page. It is just a list of former players without any notable and most don't have links to wiki pages. Would it not be better to either introduce some notability element - perhaps the ‘Players earning International Caps while at Bradford’, ‘Challenge Cup & Championship Winning Players’, and captains, coaches, leading point scorers, players of the season etc’ or just create a category of Bradford Bulls players and leave it at that. As new articles are writing just add the category.

I love the 3Sat music program played prior to 9 am and the accompanying mountain scenes. It radiates the culture that is rapidly being replaced by shaky atomic energy plants  and cultural groups of people who can’t seem to get along with one another. The little bit of peace left in the world unfortunately won’t most likely last long. It’s very sad, because the atmosphere created by your music is much more valuable than whatever the world is fighting about. As the Germans say, however, “Guter Rat ist teuer”.

Talk:Curly Lambeau

message: Lambeau is currently listed as "Running Back," which may be technically accurate but misleading.  He was a halfback, but not a running back as we know it now.
Standing 5-foot-10, 187-pounds, Lambeau was listed at halfback. But in those days -- when the passing game was in its infancy -- it was the halfback that received the snap from center, so in reality Lambeau was the Packers' first field general. 
I'm tempted to list him as "quarterback," since that more accurately describes his role on the field.  Thoughts?  --Chancemichaels 18:54, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Winds were mostly between 15 and 25 mph, with no gusts up to blizzard strength (35 mph).  Visibility only briefly dropped to one-quarter mile around 2PM.
