replies: text: Yes, BSA and GSUSA have them and also call them districts, see our talk page discussions. Very similar to UK districts. I think you should internationalize the article, I'm sure districts are common, but perhaps don't exist everywhere.Rlevse 14:03, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Lishenets

message: Sections about the 13th and 14th Amendments to the US Constitution have no place in an article about a specific policy enacted by the USSR.
Further, the claims made about the 13th and 14th Amendments were also factually untrue.  The 13th Amendment most certainly DID NOT restrict voting rights of anyone.  Its actual purpose was to ban slavery, allowing involuntary servitude only in the case of convicted criminals.
There was never a "de facto," let alone "de jure" disenfranchisement at the US federal level, nor any "de jure" disenfranchisement in any state.  The methods used to disenfranchise former slaves and their descendants were also used against other groups, including white immigrants and white southerners who did not vote in accord with the wishes of the state and local governments that controlled voter registration policies and elections.  This disenfranchisement was ended only when there was the political will at the federal level to enforce the rights guaranteed under the 14th Amendment, a century after its enactment.
And none of this has anything whatsoever to do with the disenfranchisement policies of the Soviet Union.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.166.3 (talk) 07:41, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Udarnik" meaning in Croatian and Serb languages (and probably Russian) 

message: Surely the standard English translation of this term is 'shock worker'? 'Strike worker' suggests a worker who is on strike, or a blackleg worker who is continuing to work in defiance of strike action. There is no unambiguous direct translation of course, and 'shock worker' isn't a native English phrase. --Ef80 (talk) 18:52, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Columbian Issue

message: This is a fine article, just needs a bit of tweaking. First, it needs a bigger-format picture at the top, otherwise somebody clicking on it thinks, "oh, just boring text", not realizing there are plenty of pics. commons:Category:Stamps of the United States has several larger images, though none are ideal. Second, I think the subsectioning for values breaks things up too much - as weird as it sounds, I think plain paragraphs with bolded denominations, or even an enumerated list, will look better. It would also let us keep TOC for main sections, but not take up nearly an entire screen with denominations (it's not like anyone will ever click straight to a particular one). I don't have my Brookman handy, it would be good to add a comment as to why such a large set was decided upon. Stan 14:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The Commons images for the Columbians are painfully lacking (one decent 2c and 10c picture, a 2c mislabelled as 3c, and the worst-condition 1c and 10c I've seen in some time).  What I'd really like to see is the image of one of the better Columbian covers (the huge package piece with four $5 and a rainbow of lower demons would be lovely), but I'm uncertain if the free use afforded us for US postage applies to covers from established collections...  As an unrelated note, anyone have a good closeup of the broken hat?  My scanner is like the 2c Columbian in a way: old, and very useful in its time, but really not worth much anymore. Serpent's Choice 05:57, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: My general approach to the "lead" image is that it should be somehow "most representative" of the article's subject and secondarily "most attractive", which in this case suggests a XF unused 2c as the ideal. Cover images are highly desirable supplements, to give flavor of how the stamps were used. As mundane objects, I think scans of covers can only get copyright from either cachet or stamps, so any Columbian cover is going to be PD. It would be a courtesy to tell people when you're collecting images, so they're not surprised to see their item on the front page of WP some day. :-) Stan 15:12, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  SSE MBA 

message: It may seem strange to many readers outside Sweden that this is a business school that calls itself a school of economics. In Swedish, economics is called nationalekonomi, literally 'national economy' and business administration is called företagsekonomi, literally 'business economy'. So the Swedish word ekonomi includes both business administration and economics, there is no clear distinction. From this lack of clear distinction, they chose to call themselves a school of economics. Maybe the article should note that. Especially because in Sweden, SSE calls itself Handelshögskolan which actually means the college of trade, there is no talk of economics or business administration.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.236.41.176 (talk) 11:45, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know, the Swedish terminology in the area was partly imported from German, where "BWL" and "VWL" share some part of their name. And due to the influence of some of the pioneers in the area, economics was actually given an usually strong position in early Swedish business eduction, which I believe explains the name they adopted a long time ago. So SSE is definitely active in economics as well (both undergraduate and research), although business admin is much larger in volume - it's primarily but not exclusively a business school. I guess this could be explained in the article if the name is really confusing. Tomas e (talk) 17:17, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: External links

message: 1: Remove everything about mountainboards having suspension, they don't, the springs in channel trucks are for returning the board to centre, and the shocks are for dampening speed wobble.
2: Including noSno as a pioneer of the sport in the UK alongside MBS starting it in the US. MBS was later introduced into the UK by the online store ATBShop.co.uk importing them in 2000 (as I understand it, may need clarification by someone from MBS). Maybe noting outback as starting at a similar time in Australia, but there has been debate in the UK as to whether 3 (and 2) wheeled boards count as mountainboards. (personally i think only 4 wheelers but that's opinion not fact)
3: Removing rider namechecks unless there is a particularly noteable fact worth mentioning such as record jumps (length and height) etc.
4: Inclusion of Freeride as a discipline, and make a distinction between freeride and downhill. Possinly mention shralping but not as a main discipline, as it just sounds like extremely proficient freeriding from the description given on the site, and possibly just localised to the US as I've ridden in the UK and Europe a lot and never heard of it as a riding discipline. Maybe similarly including Jibbing as a sub-discipline as it's realllyy popular in the UK at the moment.

I'm going to wager that this entry is likely just publicity/spam for Modular on a few levels:
* Only other reference I could find in the first few pages of a Google search was a band called Modular's SoundClick page.
* Has been edited by three users only (in so far as it's been about the band):
:* 201.235.10.66
:* Modulantes
:* 200.114.225.243
* All three have only edited the Modular article or inserted Modular into various lists (baroque pop, sunshine pop, indie pop)
* As above, the band has been inserted (badly, I might add) into lists of artists, likely as some sort of promotional scheme.
Going to revert to the redirect to modules, there is something definitely amiss about this. This article, after all, was changed from that into this. Moonty 14:51, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
