message: In 1860 census, given as Hesse-Kassel; in 1870 census, given as Hesse-Darmstadt.  Could not locate in 1850 census for a tie breaker.  Deceased prior to 1880.  Possibly enumerator got information from husband one time and wife another?

thread_title:  Parents'Origin 

message: This article is about Paul J. Sorg--not his offspring/descendants.  The article can legitimately mention the children in a one or two sentence statement, so long as that statement is accurately sourced.  I haven't had a change to look at the sources yet, so I'm not certain what we can reliably say, but it's likely that one or two sentences should be possible.  We definitely should not have extensive information about their lives, the cost of the house, etc.  Please do not continue to add this information without discussing here on the talk page.

message: "William Moseley (born November 11, 1951) is an American film actor and musician who has starred in a number of cult classic horror films"
Why is it stated that he's in cult classic films? Isn't that subjective? Whether a movie is a classic or not is subjective, what one person might think is a classic is something another person might think is a bad movie.

Talk:Stealth

message: I have some comments about the Leo Stoller content that was put on multiple entries.  1) This is a disambiguation page.  Its sole purpose is to quickly redirect readers to the real link they're looking for.  Disambig pages aren't for anything other than a very brief intro to each article.  They certainly aren't for going into details about possible litigation.  2) WP:CITE and WP:NPOV apply to disambig pages too.  I don't think disambig pages usually have a "References" section, but it's probably the case that if an article doesn't mention a semi-controversial detail in its text, that the disambig page shouldn't mention it either.  In particular, the Dodge Stealth page currently has no mention of Stoller, and indeed, gives a different reason for the car being phased out.  --Interiot 03:56, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Use "Tortoise and the Hare" instead of an array for finding loops ! 

message: Can anyone provide evidence, independent of Ivar Ekeland's telling of the story in The Broken Dice, supporting the claim that the middle-square method was invented in the 13th century by a Norwegian monk named Brother Edvin? The claim is quite extraordinary. If it's true, it represents a landmark in the history of randomness as well as an important data point in the spread of decimal numeration in medieval Europe. But I have been unable to find any mention of Brother Edvin or his algorithm that does not derive directly from Ekeland's work.
In the absence of corroborating evidence, I can't help wondering if Brother Edvin is an elaborate joke. BetaPiEta (talk) 15:22, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Epiglottal consonant

message: I don't see a column for epiglottals in the official IPA chart.  How do we have IPA symbols, then?  Or is there another publication out there that expands on the chart on their site?
:They are included under 'other symbols' because they were historically not considered important enough to warrant a column of their own. The IPA chart used to be even more Euro-centric. It's gotten better, but still isn't quite universal. It would be misleading to leave epiglottals out of the chart as the IPA (association) does when there's no linguistic reason to do so. kwami 05:13, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  IPA? 

message: I'm not a linguist and I don't work on articles so I'm not going to change anything, but I suggest taking another look at the Arabic example. There is clearly something wrong and I think the example is flat-out incorrect. I say this because the consonant ع used in the word listed is not an epiglottal fricative but a pharyngeal fricative. Look at the articles for Arabic (section on Sounds) and Pharyngeal Fricative. Also, if you click on the article for Voiced Epiglottal Fricative linked to in the example, the article talks about an entirely different Arabic sound, that of غ  (yes they look similar but one has a dot over it). So it's clear that there is a problem or inconsistency somewhere.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.239.64.34 (talk) 19:10, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Arabic's "pharyngeal" fricatives are actually usually epiglottal (which is sometimes still considered a form of pharyngeal), as noted in the Arabic language article. According to the same article غ is velar/uvular, not pharyngeal nor epiglottal, so غرب (here it took me some time to figure out that it actually begins with a غ) should be something like /ʁarb/, which, if I'm hearing the sound file correctly, indeed seems to be the case. This would mean the example in voiced epiglottal fricative is incorrect. I don't know enough to change it, though. --JorisvS (talk) 19:39, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Talk:South Side Irish

message: At first, I simply made a small correction about the location of the modern day parade's founders, who lived on 109th Street, not 114th. (See here: http://southsideirishparade.org/history-of-the-parade/)  After taking another look at it, I figured the sentences could use a bit of polish.  Here was the text before my edit (not including the location change):
"In the 1970's, families on the 109th block of S. Washtenaw and Talman streets (known forever in parade lore as the Wee Folks of Washtenaw and Talman) began their own parade, and so The South Side Irish Parade officially returned in 1979. The new parade route is 103rd Street to 115th Street on Western Avenue through the Beverly and Morgan Park neighborhoods. The parade is held on the Sunday before St. Patrick's Day every year. The 2006 parade was the 28th annual parade. The parade is considered to be one of the largest St. Patrick's Day community celebrations outside of Ireland."

Talk:George V. Higgins

message: It says
Friends of Eddie Coyle is listed as his first work, so he wrote 14 novels in the 17 years before that, and destroyed the manuscripts? He must have tried to have them published, as he later wrote
So then, couple things:
1) If I'm figuring it right, it should say "...he eventually destroyed the unpublished manuscripts" for clarity. I'm not making the change cos I'm not 100% this is what is meant. But its very confusing for the reader.
2) This is really extraordinary. I have not heard of a case remotely like this -- 17 years, 14 novels rejected by all publishers, kept writing them anyway. His (published) writing is highly praised, so how bad could the 14 have been? He had the means and intelligence to hire a literary agent, did he, and if he didn't why not. Then he hit it big with Friends and was a successful and well reviewed author, sitting a gold mine, but he didn't cash in, nor even try to salvage some of them with editing, nor even keep them in a trunk for future people to look over (he was, after all, a professor, so you'd think he wouldn't be super inclined to destroy source materials). He admitted that he burned the 14, did he ever say why? 
What's the deal? The reader is left hanging. Surely there must be source material somewhere to describe what happened and why. I mean it is quite extraordinary, worth of a paragraph at least. Herostratus (talk) 16:40, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Tissue fluid

message: This article states that, "red blood cells are flexible so as to fit through tiny capillaries, where they release their oxygen load"  while the article titled, "Intracellular Fluid" states that, "red blood cells, platelets and plasma proteins cannot pass through the walls of the capillaries." So which is it? This seems like a pretty fundamental error.
There's no error in either of those statements.  A red blood cell can go through the capillary like water through a pipe.  Small molecules like glucose and oxygen can diffuse across the membrane.  However, larger molecules (ex. proteins) and cells (ex. red blood cells & white blood cells) cannot get across due to their size.  Thanks for taking a look though. Albert109 22:37, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
