Talk:Dream Pool Essays

message: Maybe to English speakers it sounds like ding-dang-dong but Shen is the surname and Kuo is the first informal name. This article continually refers to him as Kuo. That would be like saying in the Albert Einstein article, "Albert did this and that." And Kuo is rarely (if ever) a Chinese surname. .:DavuMaya:. 18:35, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Naming convention 

message: Here is another quote from Mr. Shen's essays, which according to the source is the earliest known reference to pattern welded steel. This quote is from the Needham translation, and was found in the book, "A History of Metallography", by Cyril Smith, (1960). "Ancient people use chi kang, (combined steel), for the edge, and jou thieh (soft iron) for the back, otherwise it would often break. Too strong a weapon will cut and destroy its own edge; that is why it is advisable to use nothing but combined steel. As for the yu-chhang (fish intestines) effect, it is what is now called the 'snake-coiling' steel sword, or alternatively, the 'pine tree design'. If you cook a fish fully and remove its bones, the shape of its guts will be seen to be like the lines on a 'snake-coiling sword'."

message: Are the book chapters in the order in which they are in the book? I don't quite understand the distinction between "Humanities" and "Humanistic Sciences". Who came up with these names? The chapters seem to have very similar topics; e.g. one having "Literary and artistic", and the other one "Music", which I would classify under the former.

Talk:Sunnyside, Staten Island

message: Prior to the advent of cable television service, Sunnyside was noted for having the worst television reception on Staten Island, a fact resulting from its being hemmed in by several hills, including Grymes Hill, Emerson Hill and Castleton Hill, the latter separating Sunnyside from neighboring Castleton Corners. In November 1970 a public ice skating rink opened in Clove Lakes Park; soon after this it became the scene of a race riot between groups of Italian American and African American youths, this incident highlighting the tensions that have long existed between these two groups in New York City and a host of other cities throughout the northeastern United States. Although today it is a racially mixed neighborhood,with a Hindu temple across the street from the ice skating rink.
1) Where is the source to a newspaper article or something that'd describe the existence of this event?
2) How would people know if the white American's were of Italian descent? Were they interviewed and asked? This is not described.
3) What evidence is there that the two groups have tension?
4) How is this ice skating incident relevant to other Northeastern cities? And what evidence is that there's tension between Italian-Americans and African-Americans? This tension must lead to love than, because there are many actors, singers and athletes who have this background. That list includes Mya, Alicia Keys, Franco Harris, Giancarlo Esposito, Vin Diesel, Roy Campanella, Leila Arcieri, Traci Bingham, Prince, Faith Evans and more.
I'll be deleting this from the article, as it leaves a negative vibe on the neighborhood and tells a story that can't be proven.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.73.230.11 (talk) 05:28, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Willowbrook, Staten Island

message: Many of the owners of the newly built homes were Jewish families from the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens, and as a result, Willowbrook became the center of the island's Orthodox Jewish community, which from the turn of the century until the late 1960s and early 1970s was primarily centered in Staten Island's North Shore neighborhood of Tompkinsville.
The statements regarding the Orthodox Jewish community are true, but there's no source or evidence to support that these people moved from Brooklyn or Queens. So I'll be deleting from the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens.
In 1950, Staten Island had over 191,000 people. In 2007, Staten Island had roughly 480,000 people. The U.S. as a whole in 1950 had 151 million people, by mid-2007, the U.S. had 302 million, so during this 57 year time period, it doubled. If Staten Island had an average rate of immigration to the U.S., there should be 382,000 people. However, Staten Island has a much higher rate of immigration. Staten Island's 19 percent foreign-born, as opposed to the average rate of about 11 percent in the U.S. So that's explain the extra slightly less than 100,000 in natural increase. It's not to say some Staten Islander's haven't left, nor some haven't moved in from where ever, but there's nothing to support that a significant wave of Jewish people moved from Brooklyn or Queens. With that being said, there's no reason to believe why Staten Islander's, including Jewish people, couldn't have built up these neighborhoods on their own. Perhaps that's why the Jewish population has decreased in other Staten Island neighborhoods, such as Tompkinsville, and has risen in more open suburban environments like Willowbrook or Arden Heights.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.73.230.11 (talk) 04:38, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

message: I have researched, reorganized, added citations and images as I suggested in August 2013 (and no one objected).
However, others are much better at layout and organization particularly with respect to continuity, math text and images. So it would be great if someone could help with this. Math text spacing on mobile devices is such a problem that I simply add spacing around any formulas. Perhaps someone knows how to do this properly. (I personally am so frustrated at the giant size of the math text and inconsistency between platforms and browsers in wikipedia that I often just stick to html, but I know others like the math text.)
A better real-world example would be good.

Missing are citations for the final section (which I just copied and pasted as I found it). Perhaps the person who wrote this section could add proper citations.
Also, at the end, I have added hidden text for sections which might be added particularly with respect to Fourier analysis and programming, but which are far outside of my competencies.
