Talk:English folklore

message: Before the English Reformation, Parish Ales were brewed and sold to raise funds for the parish.  Many perhaps most parishes had a church-house close to the church, where, amongst other things, the ale was brewed.  It is not uncommon for church-houses to have survived as pubs — quite independently of the church.  See for example Eamon Duffy’s Voices of Morebath where the practice is described in some detail.  I cannot see how it is in any sense “folklore”. Penelope Coleman (talk) 20:25, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: It depends upon how you define "folklore". As a calendar custom, it would be accepted by most definitions. Neil S. Walker (talk) 10:11, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Parish Ales as folklore?!

message: I'm thinking of removing the entire 'in other media' section since it seems too difficult and unnecessary to continuously update. An interested reader could probably go to the page of a certain piece of folklore to see other media of it.
Also, is it recommended for me to post these kinds of high-impact changes on the talk page? I'm a new editor of Wikipedia and I'm wondering how far we should go with the 'be brave' thing :)

Talk:Scientific enterprise

message: I don't understand the point of this article. Most of it seems like a rehash of the article we already have on the scientific method, and the main science article itself. RK 12:16, Jul 3, 2004 (UTC)
:Enterprise is about risk, without which you cannot have reward; in science, the risks are not necessarily about money, but about knowledge; there is a dimension to science which is about braving the unknown; which was left unsaid in the current articles, which gives a scholastic or museum quality to the knowledge, rather than the understanding that the pursuit of knowledge can be dangerous to the researchers. Ancheta Wis 11:50, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Another point is Big Science, which is also about enterprise and the potentially corrupting effect of big money on science. We have already seen how the entrepreneur of an effort that harnessed hundreds of Ph.D.'s obtained a Nobel prize for his enterprise, i.e. his confidence that the effort would lead to a breakthrough.Ancheta Wis 11:50, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)

text: Seems to me too that we need to move lots of stuff out of this article. I don't really see the use of including stuff like "One iteration of the scientific method," "Iteration and Recursion," "Process of scientific change, or progress" in this article. It's about scientific method, as pointed out by RK, and the text does not show any relevance with the scientific enterprise. Even the text in this discussion about electric fields and kites and cages doesn't have any clear relevance with the scientific enterprise, so I'm not sure what Ancheta's point in this discussion is. We should focus this article upon the scientific enterprise, not on scientific methods. (any relevance to the scientif method and the influence of scientific enterpreneuring should be included, but I can't find much on that in the current text) --Anthony Liekens 09:37, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Protoplasm

message: A sentence says 
"It is a general term of the Cytoplasm (cell membrane)".
What does this mean? Maybe I'm not getting it, but it seems to be saying that the cytoplasm is the cell membrane?
Wawawemn (talk) 00:36, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ha? 

message: To quote the article "... used in 1846 by Hugo von Mohl to describe the "tough, slimy, granular, semi-fluid" substance within plant cells". In what sense can protoplasm be described as "tough"? That is a highly inappropriate word to associate with a highly mobile semi-fluid substance. The quotes seem to imply that vonMohl himself used these words, but he would have been writing in German.  What were the German words, and what are the nuances of their meaning? Plantsurfer (talk) 12:01, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  von Mohl's words? 

message: According to George C. Williams (description from the book's cover: "taught for three decades at New York State University, Ecologist of the Year in USA in 1989") the idea of protoplasm was used to support the traditional belief of the body (of the deceased) being somehow the Person her/himself even after death (sounds like a kind of idea of "material soul" or "soul-material"). Quote: I translated it from the Hungarian edition, so it may not be identical to the English original, from chapter 9: Philosopc Implications, sub-chapter:Further ethical misbeliefs) "there is continuous change of matter in the cell, but the protoplasm was assumed to stay permanent for the whole life, while supervising the exchange of matter in the cell." Thus the protoplasm was thought of as the unchanging "self" of the material body.
(The Pony Fish's Glow, 1997 George C. Williams, "Basic Books. A Division of Harper Collins Publishers, Inc"; Hungarian edition (with added subtitle: Plan and Aim in Nature - "Terv és cél a természetben"):  / ISSN 1218 4500)
So according to this, protoplasm is an obsolate scientific term like the term of aether (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_theories) in physics. I don't know however whether the term protoplasm is in use in a more generic or other meaning in today's biology.

Talk:Skeletal muscle

message: the label of the blood vessel in the diagram is misspelled; it incorrectly reads 'blood vessle' 46.208.178.175 (talk) 19:13, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  File:Skeletal muscle.jpg 

message: Here's how I've refactored the lead: 
Muscles are tissues composed of muscle cells. The three main categories of muscle are skeletal muscle (see below), cardiac muscle and smooth muscle. Skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles under the control of the somatic nervous system. Cardiac muscle tissue and smooth muscle tissue are classified as involuntary, or, under the control of the autonomic nervous system. Skeletal and cardiac muscles are striated, while smooth muscle is not.
Skeletal muscles (commonly referred to as "muscles") are organs of the vertebrate muscular system and typically are attached by tendons to bones of a skeleton. The muscle cells of skeletal muscles are much longer than in the other types of muscle tissue, and are often known as muscle fibers. The muscle tissue of a skeletal muscle is striated – having a striped appearance due to the arrangement of the sarcomeres.
Some editors might not prefer this approach, but I challenge you to justify the original lead as accessed via the redirect from "muscle" by a blind person using a text-to-speech reader. They don't have quick eyesight to figure out that this article begins in a knot. — MaxEnt 09:12, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

Alternatively, the skeletal support system may be a container reinforced with connective tissue surrounding a cavity filled with liquid.
:...
In many organs, muscles not only produce movement but provide a unique form of skeletal support of this remarkable group of structures and suggest ways in which an understanding of muscular hydrostats provides new insights into the diversity
of animal form.
This is not addressed in the lead, and I'm sure 99 people out of 100 would not define "skeletal" in this manner. And yet, if I'm reading this right, these are clearly skeletal muscles. — MaxEnt 22:05, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
