Talk:Eblaite language

message: Is it "closely related to Akkadian"??  The more widely-accepted view is that it's most closely related to Amorite and Ugaritic, and ultimately Canaanite. AnonMoos 03:26, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: people who spoke the language

message: :I have not seen the evidence that Eblaite is to be classified together with Akkadian as an East Semitic language. I have seen it classified elsewhere as a West or Northwest Semitic language. Giovanni Pettinato, who was responsible for deciphering Eblaite, classified it as West Semitic, noting, however, that a number of the Eblaite tablets were written in Akkadian. Wikipedia classifies Eblaite as East Semitic. Where is the evidence?
:Jacob Davidson  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.68.95.65 (talk) 23:13, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that it should not be classified strictly as East Semitic. I'm no archaeolinguist, but based solely on the articles and citations in both the English and French Wikipedia articles, Eblaite contains elements of multiple Semitic languages and would seem to defy being pigeonholed into either one of the East or West families. I've removed the East Semitic languages classification in the Infobox, which matches the heavily researched French article. KDF789 (talk) 19:19, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Project network

message: I have rewritten the definition of project network to provide clarity on the term. Additionally, I added a "Techniques" section, where the AON technique has been briefly outlined. I plan to further develop the AON section and think that the activity-on-arrow technique should be added as well. I also moved the previous information to a new section, "Other Techniques." I am not familiar enough with the information to edit it myself, however, changes could be made to enhance clarity, if the information is needed at all.
Minor edits I made include removing an unnecessary source, adding two new sources, adding a caption to the first image, and inserting another image to depict the labels of an activity node.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by MeganFleming (talk • contribs) 07:32, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

message: In the Animax official English dub of Tweeny Witches, the main protagonist is named Ellis, whereas her fellow witches are named Eva and Sheila.

replies: text: Her name might be a pun. She is NOT called "Alice", which would be "Arisu" アリス in Japanese. Her name Arusu is very close to that, but not the same. Because what happens to her is similar to Alice in wonderland, but not the same still. Animax possibly called her "Ellis" because the pronunciation is the same as "Alice", but it still isn't the same name. This information should be added to the article. Minikui 17:24, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: And indeed, in episode 27 she herself actually talks about the resemblance between her name and Alice (from Alice in "Through the Looking-Glass", which her mother read to her when she was younger).

Talk:Dr. Jose Rizal Park

thread_title: Category:Philippines

message: I'm puzzled on the removal of the "Memorials to José Rizal" category based (according to the edit summary) on WP:SHAREDNAME. It's not just that it happens to share a name with José Rizal or the etymology of the park name is uncertain. There actually is a highly visible bust of him in the park. The name was chosen because there's a large Filipino community in the area and it's listed in official sources by his full name as "Dr. Jose Rizal Park" (. As long as that category exists, this article seems to fit. Bennetto (talk) 05:02, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for that background; I stand corrected. Today, the only thing the article says is "the park is named after José Rizal, national hero of the Philippines" which is textbook WP:SHAREDNAME.

message: I removed the following passage:
:A party generically described as red is usually social democratic, socialist, or communist in ideology. An exception is the Republican Party of the United States, which has been associated with the color red since the 2000 U.S. presidential election.
First of all, this was inaccurate as regards the Uruguayan and Paraguayan Colorado Parties, so I edited that in. But then I realized the comment doesn't belong in a disambiguation page anyway. Dab pages are not supposed to be homes for expository material; they're just navigational aids.

You have said it is controversial. If you have any knowledge of the conflicting opinions, can you please describe them here. Even if your knowledge is not complete, a simple outline of the principal pros and cons would be of value. Also, your one-line description ends with three technical words that mean nothing to me.

Talk:T-12 Cloudmaker

message: This article has inconsistencies.
- Claims the T-12 was used at the end of WWII on German targets (ie before VE day)
- Claims the T-12 was so large it could only be carried by the Convair B-36
These two claims are irreconcilible as the B-36 didn't exist during WW-II, having entered service in 1948. And similarly, WW-II didn't exist when the B-36 did :).
I strongly suspect the T-12 never ever saw service in WW-II (article makes no mention of service), either because it's design was not complete before end of WW-II or else because there simply were no WW-II bombers capable of carrying a single 20 tonne bomb of this size (as the second claim suggests).
The service/timeline claims should be researched and improved or dropped.
