Talk:United States Antarctic Service Expedition

message: I am going to start a member list.  For now I will call it 'partial' and just add known members from various sources.  External citations will be provided for those without Wikipedia articles, but otherwise there will be no citation since the article provides the verification.  My vision and suggestion is that as the list becomes complete, it should be divided into East Base, West Base, and then everyone else (like the ship crews).  The list is too incomplete to do that now.  LaurentianShield (talk) 15:34, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Jiibayaabooz

message: This article confuses Ojibwe and Abenaki mythologies. It gives Rabbit's name in each tradition then goes on to name his mother and father, but it is unclear which tradition these names come from. It then goes on to give two paragraphs that appear to be from an Ojibwe origin (but refers to "Jiibayaabooz/Mateguas" as if these are one and the same) before giving some Abenaki information.
It would achieve greater clarity to divide it into distict articles, one for each name and tradition, with cross-referenced similarities and differences (supported by proper citations). The Lesser Merlin (talk) 19:26, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Juan de Ugalde

message: Ugalde, though having been born in Andalusia, has obviously (because of his Basque surname) Basque roots, either in the Spanish controlled Basqueland or in the French controlled one. The surname comes from a very common toponym all over the Basque Country (or Euskal Herria, in Basque language) that means "near the water" or "by the water" (from Basque language "Ur", water, and "-alde", close to; in composition ur+ alde becomes uralde, uhalde, ugalde, ubalde...).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.39.218.10 (talk) 13:06, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: Example

message: :"routinely achieving accuracy F-scores for PoS (word class) of over 99%."
What does that mean? I gather PoS is "parts of speech" (and F-score is F1-score, a measure of the effectiveness of a test, in this case the measure of the parser putting the right thing in the right slot) so I gather the parser is very successful at placing words and phrases of a natural language excerpt into a classification of parts of speech. I notice that the claim isn't cited either and it probably comes from the authors of the parser(s) in question (which means that we probably should put an "allegedly" in there to preserve the impartial point of view). -- KarlHallowell (talk) 15:31, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

I'm surprised to read this, because in my POV, it's an embarassment to the VU catalogue, and the only justification for its existence is that it's a rough draft of "Caroline Says II".

thread_title:  Incorrect information removed 

message: Some may probably know this article Tryggve Gran interview with Roland Huntford 
I don't consider Huntford a reliable source to say the least but how about this? Again there's the debate about his birth date. Despite the church register, indicating that he was born in 1888, it's always 1889 everywhere else and again in this interview. I doubt there were two Tryggve Grans, one born precisely one year after another or that they somehow made a mistake. So it looks like Gran simply didn't care to correct the mistake and his colleagues and historians were wrong. I wonder about the date on his gravestone. Also Gran claims that he did indeed use his skis for the cross. About the person who first spotted the tent: he says it was Hooper. Interesting. I know Charles Wright said it was him. Maybe. But looks like only Hooper bothered to ask about this. AllYourPowers (talk) 18:39, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  For further confusion 

message: There is no record in the official Gazette of any officer under this name (or variations thereof), serving in the RFC, so if this is true, it must have been entirely unofficial. Nor is there a record of his being awarded the Distinguished Service Cross – he is only ever referred to as  Captain or Major Gran, MC. At his first wedding (by which time he was calling himself "Grant") he is recorded as wearing his Military Cross – and also the Mons Star, which was only awarded to men who served in France between August and November 1914, which also seems rather curious.
