Talk:List of Halo characters/2401 Penitent Tangent

message: If you notice Penitent is being held by the grave mind. From what I can presume, I believe that the Gravemind was keeping Penitent for conversational purposes. Just a thought.
:Possibly. I find it more likely, however, that Gravemind was keeping PT from maintaining the installation. Notice how rundown all the buildings look compared to those on 04, which had the free Monitor. Constructors were maintaining the wall, so that's an exception. And the Library was likely built to last. Also, giving information to Flood is probably a protocal violation. --OGoncho 19:07, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:   Penitent and the Gravemind 

message: "There are seven Halo rings in the Halo world, and it appears that each ring has one monitor (or oracle) such as Penitent Tangent 2401."
Unfortunately I cannot remember (or find) the location of the actual source, but I do rember reading that a Halo installation has 3 monitors: 
*One for repairs and upkeep of the Installation protocol denies this monitor from fulfilling the jobs of either of the other two although it was aware of the Protocol of all three monitors. It had control over the smaller 'repair' drones seen in Delta Halo's Library and could communicate with both other Monitors
*One for communication and basic containment; this monitor would locate any and all reclaimers with the hope of activating Halo, and would also deal with small-scale flood outbreaks. As such It had control over the Sentinals as well as the Teleportation Program of Halo - 343 Guilty Spark was of this designation
*One for a "backup" that had control over all the programs, subroutines and protocols of the other two and could potentially override their programming. This designation of Monitor could deal Directly with the Index, including re-uniting it with the core. This designation of Monitor would only come into effect if both of the other two were incapacitated somehow.
However, due to the fact that I have no sources to verify this from, I doubt that this should be in the Article. Does anyone know where this is from? Tar7arus 14:57, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't remember anything like this. Anyway, both 343GS and 2401PT have introduced themselves as the monitor of the installation. --OGoncho 07:28, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Macanese people

message: To Hlaw, the term Macanese is sometimes used in referring to the people of Macao, no matter they have any Portuguese ancestry.  In referring to people who have Portuguese ancestry, it refers to both pure Portuguese decesdants who have been settling in Macao for a long time, and those with mixed ancestry (partially Portuguese, not necessarily mixed with Chinese).By the way, should we add the language, Macanese patúa, that they speak?
----
There are a couple of other terms by which the creole population of Macao are known; namely,
Macaense and Macaonese.  The former is oftentimes used by the Portuguese or Portuguese-centric press and scholars, and the later by British scholars and press from around the turn of the last century, or by contemporary British translations of Portuguese texts on Macao.  Another term used by the creole population proper is Filhos da Terra, literally Sons of the Earth. --Ianwatts 17:09, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

This image gives a false view of the distribution on the Swedish speaking populations. On of the largest consentrations of Finland-Swedes is in Åboland, the archipelago connecting Åland to mainland Finland. The base map only shows a large gapping sea, where there are in fact are closely linked communities of Swedish speaking farmers and fishermen.
Few of the islands are more then one kilometres from their neighbours. In preindustrial times the archipelago has the main traffic route between Finland and Sweden. Now the island communities are connected by the Archipelago Ring Road. In the 12th century this was one of the most densely populated parts of Finland.

message: While an article on this subject definitely could and should include a discussion of the term Svithiod, what it should not have is a long paragraph that identifies it with the modern concept of Sweden (it is etymologically equivalent of the modern English "Sweden", but that's another matter). "Svithiod" means "land of the Swedes", but its extent vary between sources (see Nationalencyklopedin). It has even been argued that one of the signs that modern Sweden was born was when "Svitjod" was replaced by "Sverige". Thus, the fact that it appears as distinct from areas in modern Götaland doesn't have to mean anything.
The removed paragraph also suffered from other problems - Swedish sources from 9th-11th century? Really? I'm sure historians would love to hear what those would be.
