thread_title:  anodyne treatment 

message: The current article reads like a dictionary entry.  If there is a distinct concept of an anodyne (different from an analgesic), the article should focus on that.  If not, it should be merged with analgesic.  Discussion of psychic relief and of placating words don't belong here. --Macrakis (talk) 16:15, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree. The article can properly be about the word "anodyne" and its history and usage in a manner that goes well beyond a mere "dictionary entry". As such, it shouldn't be merged with anything. Valerius Tygart (talk) 11:45, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Spotswood High School (Virginia)

message: from VfD:
Yet another highschool that excels in having absolutely nothing special about it.  --fvw<SMALL>*</SMALL> 22:23, 2004 Dec 14 (UTC)
:: Comment: Apparently there was also a notable lawsuit filed against this school by the ACLU when the school violated a teacher and students First Amendment rights.  This article has since been heavily expanded.  There is a great deal of irony where people are voting to effectively ban an article about a school which censored an anti-censorship message from the American Library Association's pamphlets on Banned Books Week.

Template talk:Canada class 1

message: I noticed that this template was changed somewhat recently to add BNSF and CSXT.  These two railways aren't Canadian class I railways; they're U.S. class I's that happen to have trackage in Canada.  I'm wondering what the purpose of this template should be.  Should it contain:
#Canadian class I railways, or
#All class I's with a Canadian presence?
If it's the first (my preference), then we should probably remove BNSF and CSXT.  If the second, we probably need to make fairly significant updates to this template (and also add VIA to :Template:US class 1.)  JYolkowski 22:27, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I originally created this template with the intention of listing all class 1 railraods that are or were operating in Canada, like Template:US class 1 lists those that are or were operating in the US.  I listed only CN and CP because those were the only railroads that I had documentary proof (April 1984 ORER) of their Class 1 status and that I knew operated (and still operate) within Canada.  Since my original intention was to list all Class 1 railroads that operated in Canada, I would vote for the latter, but I have no strong preference for either option. slambo 12:05, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)
I added the US ones with a Canadian presence to be consistent with Template:US class 1, which includes Canadian class 1s that operate in the US. --SPUI 12:29, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Are softupdates more flash SSD friendly than journalling? It seems that they should reduce the number of writes (no log) and hence provide a better wear.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cyril (talk • contribs) 20:40, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: For FFS-like file systems, yeah, I'd guess so. But overall, FFS and the like aren't very flash friendly, even with softupdates. Even though softupdates will delay and aggregate meta-data updates, the FFS meta-data is still scattered into smaller blocks than optimal for flash. IIUC, a log-structured FS would be way better since flash doesn't have the high seek time of HDDs. Adding some softupdates-like functionality on top of that would be even better (like not simply queueing writes, but only writing the differences needed between the in-core cache and the on-disk flushed state), but probably overkill. Most of the unnecessary writes are prolly restricted to /tmp, and you can deal with that one other ways.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.200.77.59 (talk) 21:57, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
Talk:Valve hall

message: Do we need a new category - "pages that have been translated and that need a native speaker to review" ?  
I've cleaned up the syntax and added some facts.  I have personally stood in a valve hall while the valve was running ( 250 kV, 2000 A), so it's not strictly true that no-one can enter while the valve is running.  I may have a picture of a valve hall from the outside - for an inside view see Nelson River Bipole. Shielding is vital - outdoor oil-filled valves are shielded by the tanks. 
Is this sort of article encyclopediac?  As fascinated as I am with all things HVDC, for example, will anyone use this?

Talk:List of landmarks in Chicago

message: This list was taken from Chicago school (architecture) with only a couple additions. However not all the buildings are still standing. They were listed on that page as examples of a particular architectural style. Can they be considered landmarks if they no longer exist? (Leiter I building I know is gone.) They certainly are not designated landmarks. Rmhermen 23:46, Dec 14, 2004 (UTC)
I was in Chicago around Christmas and remember seeing a grave all by itself in the city. I remember my relative telling me that it belonged to a family that refused to have the body exumed when the cemetery was moved. I forget exactly where it was. I was just curious as to who it is and whether it was a notable citizen or a famous citizen of Chicago. Morganismysheltie 21:40, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: imperceptible" is better than "imperceivable"

message: "Similarly the more familiar major triad {0,4,7} and minor triad {0,3,7} have the same interval vector (<0,0,1,1,1,0>)."  This statement is true, but the two sets are not in a Z-relation.  Rather, they are inversionally related and therefore reduce to the same [037] prime form.  No Z-relations hold for sets of cardinality three. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.93.182.178 (talk • contribs).

I'd be grateful if someone who knows more about such things than this ignorant pakeha could have a look and check I haven't done anything too stupid.

Talk:As-salamu alaykum

message: I noticed terrible errors (i fixed it) in writing the verses (or copying them), which is completely unacceptable on two counts:
1- It is something that violates the laws of Wikipedia, which stipulate that it is not permissible to distort or modify the original texts.
2-It is something that is rejected by Muslims and is considered a crime, considering that the Qur’an is the word of God sent down from heaven, as there is no change or distortion in it, so you do not want problems.. aren't you ?
Therefore, if you have any other articles that contain problems with the verses or seem unknown and incomprehensible, please specify “Arab Muslim” who has an Arabic keyboard and understands Arabic and does not distort.

Talk:World Tribunal on Iraq

message: i removed (Taken from tribunal website) - it's still true for the original, but i've made enough changes (in the direction of NPOV and making the text a bit clearer) that the WTI would probably not consider the text theirs anymore, even if it is clearly still rather similar. IMHO the WTI is not a group likely to be paranoid about copyright. In any case, anyone who thinks that the text is still too close should just improve it to make more precise, accurate, and original.

Some political protesters suggest the American oil reserves were running low and They went to war to gain unlimited access to the oil wells (since 60% of the worlds oil is found in iraq) other people believe that Saddam Hussain was harbouring and aiding terrorism. but the baisis of the war remains under political debate"

message: This article has some serious POV and OR issues. Perhaps in-line citations and a references list will help to vindicate elements as not being Original Research, but even so, this needs to be written from a point of view that is neither overly anti-war nor particularly opposed to the WTI. For example, having the very first descriptor of the group be "unelected" implies a criticism. Needs cleanup, and then maybe it can be elevated beyond Stub status.

Talk:Ricardo Semler

message: The article mentions that Semler moved his company from a Gore-inspired "matrix organisation" to a "lattice organization":
:Attempts to introduce a matrix organisational structure, promoted by Delaware-based consultancy W. L. Gore, failed to achieve desired improvements. Adoption of a lattice structure in 1985 with six to ten workers placed in charge of particular tasks - with a sense of ownership and financial responsibility alike - proved to be very successful as productivity rose and costs fell.
I'm wondering if this terminology is a little confused. Here I found an interview with Gore, wherein he says
:I THINK THE THING THAT has enabled us to be successful with Gore-tex, and with some other inventions, is that we flattened the organization out, eliminated titles, created what we call a "lattice organization," and made an effort to enlarge the freedom of everyone in the enterprise to the maximum degree.
This suggests that A) Gore's business model is the "lattice" model and "matrix" is something else, and that B) Semler didn't move away from Gore's business model but rather toward it. Can anyone comment on this? --Ryguasu 19:57, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Lattice organization" 

message: I don't believe he does. More importantly, Ricardo himself doesn't think so either.
He failed to mention it at all in his book "Maverick!", and he even wrote an article for the "Harvard Business Review" in 1989 and it wasn't mentioned there either (which seems odd, since it was the HBR),
The "Strategy + Business" article (referenced in the wiki article) specifically says he has "no advanced business degree".
It is true he speaks regularly at Harvard and MIT (as mentioned in the S+B article) - yet Harvard haven't claimed him as an alumni on their wikipedia page.
Maybe those who think he has a Harvard MBA should provide some evidence to back up that claim?   And I don't mean that CNN article (also referenced in the wiki article) - which, by the way, erroneously claims he was 24 when he becaome CEO of Semco.   He was 21 (again, this is confirmed in both "Maverick!" and the "S+B" article).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Warnester (talk • contribs) 07:10, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Persian name

message: To me, it seems that a great deal of these names are from the arabic language:
# hadi
# sajjad
# bagher: a Shiite Imam
# sadegh: a Shiite Imam
# jafar:  a Shiite Imam
# akbar:  Great in Arabic
# abbas:  The name of one of the early Caliphs
# abol-fazl: The brother of Imam Hussain
# zeynab(Female): Another member of the Imam family
# khadijeh(F): The name of the Prophet Muhammad's wife
Now some persian names are:
# Setareh
# Xerxes
# Keeyanoosh
etc.

A lot of Arabic names are listed because they ARE used as Iranian personal names. That is because of the Islamic conquest of Iran. Therefore, they should be kept on the list, as they are used in Iran. Shining oblivion 06:11, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
