Talk:Great grey shrike

message: I just made some edits on this section. I'm including a brief summary and reasoning in case anyone is interested or able to confirm a detail:
* Changed 'ermine' in one instance to stoat, which is more appropriate.
* Changed 'ermine (Mustela nivalis)' to stoat. Note the species given is a weasel, but 'ermine' refers to stoats. Since both the citations give are books, I can't confirm which was intended. Perhaps someone else can?
* Removed unnecessary class names e.g. 'bumblebees and wasps (Hymenoptera)' now says simply 'bumblebees and wasps'.
* Removed the somewhat flowery and inaccurate sentence 'The keen eye of the watchful "sentinel" misses nothing that moves.'

message: In the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_shrike article that species is distinguished from this one but apparently part of the same superspecies. This article does not mention L. borealis, but puts the range of L. excubitor into eastern Siberia where L. borealis lives.

If you insist on putting "human" in the list, I would vote for creating a new page (would be a bold project), list of human fictional characters. The page fictional character simply is not, and does not attempt to be, an extensive list of fictional characters, but merely contains a list of very famous ones as a sub-heading. -- Timwi 00:14 19 Jun 2003 (UTC)

I won't add or delete form the current information because my bias as a major fan of EL would show ;)
I recall _King of Extacy_ doing pretty well as well, though mostly a remix release, but then _One Track Mind_ continued with "The Alezby Inn" and "One Track Mind" had moderate success.
_Get Into It_ was mostly a mistake, but fans bought it anyway. A lot more of a housey feel to it, and EL was an electro artist, not house.
The 90's saw _Pyramix_, another mostly remix album, but with the horrid "Get High, Get X'D, Get Drunk, Get Sex'd" and _Back From the Tomb_, which included bootie-bass, which for EL was a major step backward. I'd say he's itching for a comeback... as Electro has moved away from the Hip Hop to some extent world into a very strong basis within the techno community.
I'm trying to add information about the 'Freak-A-Holic' comic book that is coming out.  When I add the only external link - a facebook fan page - I get a message saying "this content is probably not appropriate for an encylcopedia." says it's from a "bot."

I wanted it to be the same size as the modern Nfld flag. I didn't do anything to alter the colour, though there may be a problem with somebody's program. -- Montréalais

Jumping ahead, do you even think it's necessary to have the Union Flag on this page? It's not particularly distinctive, and an image of the union flag is not what people interested in the flag of Nfld-Lab are interested in seeing. I think just something like "Prior to xxxx, the colony used the Union Jack as its flag" would be sufficient. - Montréalais

Talk:Ultimate fate of the universe

message: False vacuum decay (Big Slurp) is not an option for the end of the universe. Even if the Big Slurp starts somewhere in the universe now, only a portion of universe will be destroyed while most of the universe would still be safe because galaxies 4,200 megaparsecs (13,698,567,863 light-years) away from each other will see each other moving away faster than the speed of light while the Big Slurp cannot expand faster than the speed of light.
So the Big Slurp is a Universe Destroyer instead of a Universe Terminator. It will hurt our universe badly, but cannot kill it completely.

message: Can somebody explain this to me? Surely the Big Bang + Newtonian gravity are sufficient to consider the ultimate fate of the universe, right? Can anybody provide a citation? –CWenger (^ • @) 03:31, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Newtonian gravity isn't sufficient, obviously, since it was proven insufficient by the theory of general relativity. The Big Bang isn't a complete theoretical explanation, and even then modern formulations use general relativity. Newtonian theory is an effective theory which is effective for what it's meant to describe, like an apple falling out of a tree. Newtonian theory is replaced by general relativity in the scale of cosmology.

Talk:Shrike

message: great grey shrike synonym northern shrike
isabelline shrike synonym rufous-tailed shrike
HANZAB lists two shrike species for A & NZ. L. cristatus and L. collorio. Both (so far as I can tell) are very rare vagrants. There is, for example, a single confirmed sighting on record of L. cristatus, but it may have been L. tigrinus, and in any case that was Christmas Island, which is, for geographical purposes, part of Indonesia.
We do, however, have several similar species, and ones that are called "shrikes" in one way or another: there are the shrike-thrushes and Shrike-tit (family Pachyephalidae), the cuckoo-shrikes (Campephagidae)and the Butcherbirds (Artamidae).

I have not contributed to either article, and I really don't care which title is the redirect and which is the main article.

Since this page was first converted to a redirect on  00:47, 16 Apr 2003, and stayed as such until the past week, I restored things back to the status quo.

message: I've just removed this section put in by User 150.135.161.23, as it uses Unencyclopaedic language (i.e. saying that another part of the article is wrong)...
Note: The previous paragraph in this section contains inaccurate information. In the Deep Space Nine episode, "Apocalypse Rising", Damar states that a "full spread" of photon torpedoes is sufficent to destroy the "Klingon High Command and everyone else within a few hundred kilometers". To which Chief O'Brien states that attacking Ty'Gokor (a heavily fortified, planetoid-based facility), would be futile, as the Bird of Prey starship they are on will likely be shot down before even a single shot can be fired, and that the facilities's shields can readily absorb "a dozen" photon torpedoes. Photon torpedoes creating devastation across hundreds of kilometers (assuming no shields), indicates that a full spread of torpedoes (no number has been specified, and Klingon starships rarely have ever shown more than 2 torpedoes being fired in a single spread) from a relatively small klingon vessel can create an explosion in the hundreds of megatons. 
Now there may be some truth in this paragraph but it can't be in the article the way it is now, User 150.135.161.23 (or someone else) will have to rewrite it so it can be included in the article.
