Talk:Grass Eyot

message: For someone who only appears to have been editing for less that a month, it seems rather presumptuous to start marking articles for deletion as you did Grass Eyot. This is especially thoughtless as the article had only been created 45 minutes earlier. As it concerns a physical place you should appreciate that verification is in the eyes of the beholder though of course one could quote an atlas for every place on Wikipedia. As for notability it is part of the totallity of information about the River Thames which is of importance to a significant number of people in England.  Motmit 17:20, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not presumptuous for me to mark articles for deletion at all. Please demonstrate the notability of Grass Eyot. Note, a great many other non-noteworthy articles are deleted (not just marked) within ten minutes. Also note that Wikipedia is not an atlas. Let's try to keep this on the talk page for Grass Eyot. I'm copying our conversation over there.-- Mumia-w-18 17:47, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Also, although the Thames is clearly notable, that notability doesn't automatically transfer to everything the Thames touches. The subject of an article must be noteworthy.-- Mumia-w-18 17:54, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007

message: I've heard that the bill has a lot of pork, attached. Has anyone looked into this, or is it unsubstantiated rumor? If true, then it should be in the criticism section. Brian Pearson (talk) 02:16, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Has there been any mention yet as to when President Bush will be brought up on charges under the bill of being a 'homegrown' terrorist? Does the Bill concern itself with his terrorist acts abroad, such as illegal warfare and supporting covert torture?

Do we know yet how he is being investigated to prohibit him from engaging in future acts of terrorism, both within US borders and abroad? samwaltz (talk) 10:41, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Charges?

message: The recent paragraphs added to this article (February 17) are clearly not neutral in tone, spring from a particular political POV, and editorialize all over the place; viz.: "A partial thaw in the mainstream press Blackout of S. 1959 occurred Monday, February 4, 2008... / In a rare breath of fresh air, The San Francisco Chronicle has now published an article ... / Unfortunately, Americans are acting the same as the Jews, disabled, and dissidents did during Hitler’s Third Reich... / Ref: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/02/04/ED5OUPQJ7.DTL&hw=endgame&sn=002&sc=583 (Accessed Feb. 17, 2008).

message: Several of the sources call the subject of this article HR 1955, and that page redirects here. However the article doesn't explain (a) what this name means (why 1955?) or (b) when this name was used. In its current form the article is titled Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007, and the introduction mentions that it was introduced as S-1959; "HR 1955" just seems to slip in without explanation. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 16:17, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Atari Portfolio

message: Wiki: "UK released a product in the UK called the DIP Pocket PC in 1989. Soon after its release, DIP licensed this product to Atari for sale as the Portfolio in the UK and US"
According to the book "The story behind the creation of the Atari Portfolio" released by Amazon, "the Atari licensed the PPC design after seeing a prototype being showcased on CNN, The production casing and revised set of circuit boards were designed and manufactured by Atari Japan and finally released in Sep 1989. And as par of its licensing deal with Atari, DIP could purchase production Portfolios at a discounted price which it then rebranded using a different bezel and sticky labels as the production version of the DIP Pocket PC."

Talk:Atarisoft

message: At present, the caption to the sample box art states:
:"Typical example of Atarisoft packaging. The predominantly red cover of Centipede corresponds to the Apple II format."
Couple things here:
*The box art isn't "predominantly red" but orange (or are my eyes going?)
*This particular coloring corresponds not only the Apple II, but also the ColecoVision, and I believe some other platform from the era (which escapes me at the moment)

message: citation needed - there is no single proof Silesian descends directrly from early Ślężanie tribe (Slavic) dialect - in contrast there are many proofs that it descends from medieval OldPolish. In fact Silesian dialect has every feature of Polish language (unlike e.g. Kashubian and other Pommeranian dialects). So maybe the original Ślężanie dialect extincted or (rather) was highly influenced by Polanie dialect after Polish conquest of Silesia - we dont know. But we cannot say it descends from Slezanie dialect - it is just pure speculation!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.88.225.228 (talk) 21:54, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Macomb Mountain

message: Sources vary as to the elevation of the summit. The topographic map, which is generally the source of such data, gives the elevation as 1,338 meters. listsofjohn.com gives the same. peakbagger.com gives  4370 feet, 1332 meters. There was a benchmark on the summit but the datasheet is unavailable.
Both listsofjohn and peakbagger agree that the key col is below 1160 meters. Listsofjohn shows the "rise" as 600 feet. Wikipedia generally shows "clean prominence" which is generally less than "rise" (also called mean prominence). See Topographic prominence#Calculations and mathematics. So the clean prominence is 1,338 - 1160 = 178 meters. I am going to ask at peakbagger about this.  –droll [chat] 21:38, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Characterization test

message: The term Characterization Test is attributed to Michael Feathers in his book Working Effectively with Legacy Code (), but I know the term has been used for at least 20 years and probably more like 30 year in testing semiconductor hardware. The test characterized the part to see if it was within spec. Later characterization was done to see if the fabrication process had drifted, or to compare the characteristics of parts developed on a new process.

Talk:Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System

message: "Containing an estimated 150,000 km³ of groundwater,[2] the significance of the NSAS as a potential water resource for future development programs in these countries cannot be overstated. Recently the Great Man-made River Project (GMMR) in Libya began extracting massive amounts of water from this aquifer, removing an estimated 6.5 million m³ per day."
-This would seem to indicate that, assuming that the removal rate stays the same, and that all the groundwater is available for extraction. This water supply can last no longer than about 63 years. 	
(150 000 000 000 / 6 500 000) / 365 = 63.2 years
Likely it will be depleted before that time due to increased demand and extraction inefficiencies.Greenknight21 18:44, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  150000 km³ would mean that it is 2000 times bigger than Lake Chad. Something is wrong with these figures. Probably the size is 150 km³ (a lot of water anyway). --79.147.125.195 (talk) 10:25, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I'm afraid that the information given in the "Political Views" section was not complete. In one line, it stated that,
"Miyake felt Japan should make it it's mission to study Asia, oppose western imperialism, and nurture the distinctive Japanese sense of beauty."
Unfortunately, many Japanese during the Meiji era claimed to have "opposed Western imperialism". However this critique of Western imperialism allowed the Japanese to create new rhetoric claiming that Japan will help free their Asian brothers and sisters from the evil of the West by becoming the leader, or in other words, make them Japanese colonies. The desire to study Asia also stems from this imperialist rhetoric since Japan practiced its own form of Orientalism, even if it was thought of being a part of the "Orient". By producing knowledge of Asia (Touyou), Japan was able to put the rest of Asia in their own framework by essentializing Asia and by putting it in a vertical hierarchy with Japan on top while claiming that a sense of "Japanese-ness" was what enabled them to "modernize" and fend off Western imperialism (hence the troubling quality of the statement about a "Japanese sense of beauty"/"Japanese aesthetic"/"Japanese spirituality").
Although I admit that I don't know much about Miyake, anyone with an ounce of knowledge of Japanese colonialism would hear alarm bells ringing after seeing such a statement.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.231.14.8 (talk) 23:42, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

This has come a long way from where you picked it up! A few things I might suggest -- Maybe pare down your lead section to more of a summary, and add a section below to go into further detail with the great info you have there now; this might help the reader to gain a general overall view before diving into the article. Also, if you have an opportunity, you could consider adding an External Links or See Also section, where you could include journal articles or books for further reading (External Links section) or relevant wiki pages (See Also section). Lastly, you could add a short section on Lazzi in present-day theatre, if you have enough info to compile, and enough time to flush it out. That might be helpful if you have a chance.

message: Well, just to start off.  I have to say I'm new to this.
I just wanted to make a comment regarding my family name.
From what I've read I understand that the Ó Coileán were barons of the barony of Conello, which would be now part of modern-day counties Limerick and Tipperary.  If I remember correctly, this was during the 11th Century but I can never find resources to substantiate this.  Can anyone advise further?
To elaborate, my family have been in and around Tipperary Town for a few hundred years now so I understand that the sect of the Collins clan from which I am descended did not leave move very far from the origin of the cland in the Limerick area.  I also notice that historical references to the clan refer very heavily to Michael Collins from Cork, where as I know for a fact that there still remains a large number of people in Limerick City and surrounding areas of the family name Collins.
I would like to hear others' thoughts on this subject.--Patka2007 19:50, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
