Talk:Pingelap

message: The current population of Pingelap Atoll is approximately 250 individuals. Prior to 1985, the population was approximately 800, but it has decreased rapidly in the last 25 due to relocation of the Pingelapese people. I suspect that the 3000 number reflects the total population of Pingelapese people throughout the world, most of whom do not reside on Pingelap Atoll (although I suspect that that number may be a bit dated as well).

thread_title:  Population of Pingelap 

message: Quote:
"A significant proportion, 4.92%,[6] of the population have complete achromatopsia (known on the island as maskun, meaning literally "not see" in Pingelapese), a recessive genetic disorder that causes total color-blindness in sufferers.[7]
[...]
Today the atoll is still of particular interest to geneticists; due to the small gene pool and rapid population growth, the disorder is now prevalent in almost 10% of the population, with a further 30% being unaffected carriers [...]"
"4.92%" and "almost 10%" cannot be both true.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.204.155.74 (talk) 16:00, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Quote: 
The commentator said that in his brain, brain capacity intended to process cone signals is instead added to his rod signal processing capacity.
What commentator? The commentator is referenced for the first time in this sentence.
--------
-The commentator is probably from the BBCTV program referenced in this paragraph, but I agree that it needs to be re-written. What makes "The commentator" an expert? The sentence makes it sound like a guess or something made up. I also take issue with "brain, brain capacity". 
Suggested edit (Have not actually seen the program in question which is why I'm not making the change):
The same report claimed that the night vision capabilities are enhanced because the brain functions that would normally be used to process cone signals have been added to the processing capacity of the rods. Cmkit (talk) 14:35, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

Redaction Criticism has determined in advance what it will discover and therefore it is not a question of whether the writer will be found guilty but how and when he will be condemned. This stems from the redactionist's three main criteria, "distinctiveness," "multiple attestation," and "consistency," which presuppose that tradition about Jesus contains much that is un-historical.'

We can't possibly have attach Flora of XXX tags to all such plants for all relevant XXX's.  And almost all of these plants aren't even native to the Maldives, let alone endemic.

replies: text: Most probably because when it was granted there were conditions on who could be heir to the title. Most of the time, it's a limitation to the male descendants in the agnatic line of the original holder.

:Charles II's proclamation in 1672, suspending by his royal prerogative the penal statutes against Nonconformists (known as the Declaration of Indulgence), was seen by many Members of Parliament as evidence of both the King's sympathy for Catholicism and his preference for absolutist rule.
:Their opposition was so fierce that Charles II was forced to cancel it in 1673 and instead to agree to Parliament's Test Act. This required all those wishing to hold office to swear an oath to the King and the Protestant English Church and to sign a declaration denying the Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation."
