Talk:Moisture analysis

message: The article currently covers a relative paucity of the myriad industrial applications of moisture analysis.  It completely misses the field of high level moisture analysis. (Though to be fair, the article didn't even exist until October, 2006).

thread_title:  Why the black walnut? 

message: @Alexandermcnabb, I'm confused about your reasons for revision. Going through them in order:
* DICDEF: I'm unsure of how this qualifies as a dictionary definition; looking at articles like Commensalism, they seem to have a similar topic/layout.
* attribution concerns: What attribution concerns are these? 
* redlinked: There's one redlink, and to my current knowledge redlinking isn't grounds for removal, right?
* uncited content: Most of the content is cited, and what isn't is tagged with the Citation Needed template; all 'essential' info to the article is cited.
* essay/OR: How does this qualify as an essay or as original research?
TypistMonkey (talk) 21:30, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi TypistMonkey - The information in the article is, as you note in your edit summary, copied from other articles but we don't know which. It adds limited value, IMHO, to the information in the Symbiosis article and is little more than a definition of the word amensalism, which is sufficiently covered in that article. No, redlinks don't mean deletion is appropriate, but when you're defining a concept and that definition is A is a type of B and B is a redlink, it's something I'd take as a flag that we're in the territory of not terribly notable in itself. If commensalism has an article, that's super but WP:OTHERSTUFF. Coming across this on new page patrol, the redirect - as per consensus at Talk:Biological interaction seemed perfectly reasonable.

thread_title:  Wikification 

message: I noticed where some anonymous IP de-linked several names/articles. I feel it is better to have most names linked for several reasons. First, if someone is new to Wikipedia and this is the first article read, the links could provide more info that the newbie might want to investigate. Secondly, if I am reading an article and should suddenly come across a name like Jimmy Carter, I might want to read his article if it strikes my fancy. Thirdly, for someone not familar with Vicente Fox, this might be that introduction. Each article should be viewed like a book that wants to be read - by providing more links, one can easily "thumb" to other articles of their choice. Ronbo76 04:49, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to welcome User:Sabrinaalvarez to Wikipedia, and to commend her for declaring her (in Wikipedia terms) conflict of interest. The short answer to the request is that User:Sabrinaalvarez should list the edits they suggest on this talk page, with the reliable third-party links that will substantiate the points, and ask independent editors to make appropriate changes. I will keep this page on my watchlist for a week or two at least, and will hope to oblige. Richard Keatinge (talk) 09:13, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not as simple as that, to be honest. I came across this page while patrolling AIV; Sabrinaalvarez had set off edit filters. I warned instead of blocking, and reverted their edits. They came to my talk page, and said they had been asked to fix the page: I explained to them about COI, and asked them to come here or go to OTRS. They went to ANI instead, and have asked the same questions. At the same time, after seeing their claim, I came to this page to see if there were BLP issues with it; instead, it looks like mostly NOTPROMO issues, even in the version before Sabrinaalvarez came to the article. So I tagged it, since I have no time or inclination for cleanup. But it certainly needs attention. Vanamonde (talk) 09:27, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Gogodala people

message: Wikified as part of the Wikification wikiproject!  JubalHarshaw 16:47, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I've removed the section that contained scientifically, historically, archaelogical and sociologically conspiratorial claims about the Gogodala being a lost Israelite tribe and that they are essentially "culturally Jewish".
The two sources related to the Gogodala people being "lost tribes of Israel" seem utterly unfounded in any way whatsoever outside of some vast ranging conspiracy. The first source (JoshuaProject) shows nothing other than a quote that "Australian missionaries successfully converted the Gogodala people to Christianity decades ago. These missionaries remarked about the 'Jewish' appearance of the Gogodala people and the similarity of the Gogodala language to Hebrew. It will take some studies by experts to find out the truth." which is utterly ridiculous and the second source isn't even online anymore as it produces a 404, though from its URL "Lost Tribe of Israel found in Papua New Guinea" I am guessing would've been just as embarrassing. I am not even going to honour it with a Wayback search. This section was added purely for religiously motivated propaganda purposes as can be seen on the Joshua Project website.

Park (Emmet Judson Williamson), an African man who is driving to Limbe with his son."
Black people in Africa are not "African-American", obviously.  
The term "black", also, is not a perjorative if used correctly.  "Black African" would be appropriate.  Of course, if the spirit moves you... I suppose you could use the term "Native African," also.  ;-)
I think you will find that the man who picks her up is originally from America, he comments on his arrival in africa, approaching the guards as 'brothers', that once he was in Africa he felt like he had come home. Thus the title 'African-American' would be correct

Talk:Ion laser

message: I'm wondering if "ion laser" is the best title for this article. It's not very specific. The article seems to deal with argon-ion and krypton-ion lasers. Perhaps a better title would be "noble gas ion laser" or just "noble ion laser". Any thoughts on this?--Srleffler 00:14, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: These lasers are commonly refered to as ion lasers, so I think the title is quite justified.  There is an article, List of laser types, which lists the major types of lasers.  On that list, the only other laser that would fit under the "ion laser" heading is the xenon ion laser, which is also a noble gas ion laser. Since there are no ion lasers that are not noble gas ion lasers, such a change does not seem to be justified.Az7997 20:04, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I removed the hot-water heating coil reference, its use isn't stated, and could be confusing.

thread_title:  Power Supplies

thread_title:  Diagram 

message: Disclaimer: I know very little about physics so simply ignore this comment if it is totally bogus.
The article discusses maximum output of an ion laser:
:A small air-cooled ion laser might produce, for example, 130mW of light with a tube current of 10A @ 105V.
Yet the S3 laser produces 500mW-1000mW with 3.75V at 1A-2A. As far as I can tell, the S3 is producing 8x the light of 130mW using 1/5 the amps at 1/28 the voltage.
And the S3 uses a power supply that is a 43g LiOn battery.
If the S3 is an ion laser, I think that makes this article more misleading than helpful. I would recommend rewriting the article by someone who has a clue (ie: not me) or deletion of the page.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neil Smithline (talk • contribs) 22:01, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

message: This article says "A small air-cooled ion laser might produce, for example, 130 mW of light with a tube current of 10 A at 105 V.

Talk:Wolf Prize in Physics

message: 2004 award that went to Higgs, Brout, and Englert is pretty tainted seeing that it did not include Guralnik, Hagen, and Kibble (GHK) in that award.  That GHK team had the most complete solution and 1) showed how the gauge particle got mass, 2) predicted and commented on the existence of the "higgs" field and boson, and 3) showed how Goldstone's theorem is avoided, and 4) had no errors (when dealing with poles for example).  The other two did not do all four.  All three papers were recognized as milestone papers by PRL’s 50th anniversary celebration. Physical Review Letters - 50th Anniversary Milestone Papers  Additionally, each of the six physicists were awarded the 2010  J. J. Sakurai Prize for Theoretical Particle Physics for this work. American Physical Society - J. J. Sakurai Prize Winners  Guralnik just wrote a summary of this paper and the history of the discovery.  It is a good read if you are interested in the history of the mass boson and the physics in the 1960's. (http://arxiv.org/abs/0907.3466).
