Talk:Tai Wai station

message: What does "North American travelling mode" mean? There's no explanation or link, and I haven't got a clue. Loganberry (Talk) 30 June 2005 16:05 (UTC)
* I'm guessing it means that the incoming trains are to your left, and outgoing trains are to your right (\/ /\), as is the typical setup in North America, which runs contrary to the conventional setup in Hong Kong (incoming: right; outgoing: left; /\ \/). Having been to the station, I can say for sure it uses the (\/ /\) setup. - Hinto 04:57, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Charlotte Montagu Douglas Scott, Duchess of Buccleuch

message: can I suggest that we eschew surnames entirely, and only use the title?  So, in this case Charlotte, Duchess of Buccleuch.  Middle names used as necessary to disambiguate.  These women were never known as "Firstname Husband'sunusedsurname", so there's no real added value in including that name.  john k 06:28, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The same argument could be used about their husbands. This Duchess's husband, for instance, was the eldest son of the Earl of Dalkeith from birth and was known for his entire life by courtesy and substantive peerages. He was never known as "Walter Montagu-Douglas-Scott", and yet that would be the start of the title of any article we create about him.

Talk:Honeytoken

message: Compare to "salted" commercial mail mailing lists - monitored physical addresses sprinkled into commercial mailing lists rented to direct mail users, to detect unauthorized multiple uses
Also compare to fake files inserted by copyright holders to pollute peer to peer networks.
The term was really coined by Augusto Paes de Barros, during a discussion with Lance Spitzner in the Focus-IDS list.
: Other examples of honeytokens would include celebrity names in a hospital database. So when some employee gets caught looking at John F. Kennedy's records, they get fired. This would be different than, say, the employees at the Passport office looking at Obama's passport, because they might have a legitimate need for that . Many such database systems have real-time tracking of honeytokens, so that if you're working at such a place, and look up a celebrity's records (or other honeytoken), usually you'll get a phone call or visit within minutes.

it could add something to general understanding of punk music and movement;

I suspect punk picked it up from reggae, which had a big influence on a lot of punk bands.

Talk:Wiki software

message: In the following portion:
By the time MediaWiki appeared, this convention had been largely abandoned in favor of explicitly marking links in edited source code with double square brackets.  Page names thus did not interrupt the flow of English and could follow standard English capitalization convention.  Case-sensitivity on the first letter but not subsequent letters supported standard English capitalization conventions and let writers author their pages in ordinary English, with the linking of particular words and phrases afterward.  This proved to be the critical change that allowed ordinary authors of English to write wiki pages, and non-technical users to read them.  This policy was extended to other natural languages, avoiding the use of unusual-looking text or awkward capitalization that violates the language's own rules.
Was the reverse meant in the part I've bolded? That is, shouldn't that say "Case-insensitivity on just the first letter"? On Wikipedia (and other MediaWiki sites), for example, wiki software automatically works as a link, but wIKI SOFTWARE does not. (Wiki Software only works because an explicit redirect was set up.) It'd help if the section had citations, too.  —Undomelin (talk) 20:56, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

message: I'm seeing the beginning of a slow-motion edit war on this article between what looks like disgruntled Confluence (software) users and myself. We should stop this now.
On one side we have editors who believe that Confluence is no longer a wiki because it has abstracted away two features (wiki markup and what we would call the creation of a redlink as you are editing an article).
On my side are editors ... OK, so far just one editor, me ... who take a more ecumenical view of what a wiki is. I believe that the opening paragraph of the current version of Wiki is correct, and that "A wiki is a knowledge base website on which users collaboratively modify content and structure directly from the web browser." Confluence would continue to be that, even if it lost those two important features.
