Talk:Henry Fool

message: It's interesting that the plot section suggests that Henry Fool (Shakespeare?) is an untalented Rogue when almost everything he says is touched with brilliance.  On the other hand, Simple Simon Grim (perhaps of the fairy-tale fame?) seems like a monosyllabic moron.  Everyone with "taste" hates Simon's poem, but the great unwashed love every bit of it.  And of course Henry is not understood or appreciated.
Henry:  "Is it some kind of measure of a man's worth to drag what's best in him out into the street so that every average slob with some pretense to taste can poke it with a stick?"
Simon:  "Maybe it is."
Tell me that Henry's complex and grammatically correct sentence is not poetry.  As much as anything else, this film is about how talent goes unrecognized and unrewarded.
It is not poetry, and the talk page is not for discussion of the article's subject matter.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.65.70.252 (talk) 14:41, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Contagion heuristic

message: This is a comment, hope it's in the right place.
Elsewhere in Wikipedia, "heuristic"  is defined as a rule of thumb for problem-solving, which CAN lead to a cognitive bias. But this page (contagion heurisic) seems to describe a cognitive bias, not a heuristic as defined above...
: The heuristic article differentiates heuristics as used in psychology, where they are decision-making strategies that can lead to cognitive bias.  Of course, the article needs some work otherwise--I'll see if I can make it clearer.  Starryharlequin 06:22, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

message: This version of the article is mostly an essay lamenting the existence of the contagion heuristic, and offering some speculations about it.  It also doesn't explain what the contagion heuristic is.
I've done a small amount of reading about this, and I haven't found anything to suggest that "contagion heuristic" refers to group-think.  (Such writing might be out there; I just haven't found it.)  So, for now, I'm removing nearly all of the essay and replacing it with a brief summary of what I found in Heuristics and Biases by Daniel Kahneman.
No doubt I'm deleting some good info.  I hope someone will add back the supported info without reintroducing the evaluative writing.  If you restore the equation of contagion heuristic with groupthink, please post a note about the source.  That equation of terms sounds to me like a likely misinterpretation, but I could be wrong.

Talk:Ages of consent in North America

message: There’s a grammatical error literally in the opening sentence of this article. The word “either” is used to refer to one of only TWO things (i.e., “either [this] or [that].”) The opening sentence refers to THREE possibilities (“…either age 16, age 17, or age 18.”), making the word “either” grammatically incorrect.
I’d propose rewriting as follows: “…each U.S. state has set its age of consent to the age of 16, 17, or 18.”
A grammatical error literally in the opening sentence of an article is enough to drive me crazy, but because the article is semi-protected, I’m unable to edit myself.

thread_title:  Colour palette doesn't match the map 

message: Remove the line "The federal age of consent in the United States is 16." from the opening section. 
Not only is the cited source questionable, this statement is directly contradicted by the "United States" section of this article, which states "There exist several federal statutes related to protecting minors from sexual predators, but none of them imposes an age limit on sexual acts". I have been unable to find any other sources suggesting a federal age of consent at 16.
The only federal laws on this regard inter-state grooming or trafficking of minors, which themselves impose an age of consent of 18. The line should be fully removed (not replaced/edited) and instead readers should refer to the United States section which explains this information in detail, unless someone can come up with a suitable replacement.

Talk:The Private Life of Chairman Mao

message: The book seems to reconcile with other publications about Communist China, whose authors are not related. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.193.50.2 (talk) 
Not at all.  It lays far more blame on Chairman Mao than most other texts about Communist China, whether written by Chinese or Western authors.  There is thus huge controversy surrounding whether Li Zhisui was in fact Chairman Mao's doctor for 22 years as he claimed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.47.172.17 (talk) 
This article is of a very poor quality and includes unnecessary details of the book without context (such as the railroad-side rice patties, which were in fact organised by the provincial governor of Hubei province without Mao's knowledge).  This article should be rewritten. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.233.210.82  (talk)

message: There are uncited numbers that specify the size of the NPC:
:The entire pore complex has a diameter of about 120 nm, the diameter of the opening is about 50 nm wide and its "depth" is about 200 nm.
I am sure these numbers vary greatly by organizm, but I found a paper on the frog oocytes sizes:
:Hinshaw JE, Carragher BO, Milligan RA. "Architecture and design of the nuclear pore complex." Cell. 1992 Jun 26;69(7):1133-41. 
where they state:
:"Stain penetration between the center and outer regions in each spoke, at a radius of ~465 A, correlates closely with the known radial position of the membrane (r = ~450 A) (Unwin and Milligan, 1982)." [10 A = 1 nm]
and also:
:"The rings have weak 8-fold symmetry and consist of a ~150 A-wide circle of mass centered at a radius of about ~450 A." [10 A = 1 nm]
so these numbers are very different than the ones in the wiki article.

message: Hi, request those who are watching this page to contribute to the discussion at  Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_topics#Caste_identification on whether mentioning a person's caste (Jati) requires that person to explicitly say that he belongs to XX caste (like in the case of religion and sexuality), or whether caste identity is objective and knowable enough (like ethnic background) to be ascertained without producing proof that the person explicitly identified with a particular caste. For example, can we identify Mulayam_Singh_Yadav as a Yadav based on newspaper articles etc., or whether we need proof that Mulayam Singh Yadav has explicitly accepted 'Yadav' as his caste (by saying, for example, something like "I am a Yadav".)
