message: A sub brands section needs to be created on this template, as there are now at least 3 defunct sub brands out there, with more on the way in the future. Other TOC templates have them. I will not go an create this, because last time, my edit was reverted- I do not want to start an edit war. However, creating this will improve the template and the life of Wiki users, making the subbrands more discoverable and easier to get to- a key factor in Wikipedia.Dewarw 20:35, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

message: The hat note at the top of the article links to a list of CBDs and specifically to the Miami CBD. Of all the articles listed in the list of CBDs why would Miami's specifically be so important on its own that we think people will be searching for that one especially when typing "Central Business District" above all others? Is there a reason I am not aware of? Even if we presume it's because its name is Central Business District and others have different names like Down Town..... A very quick look through the list shows several others, including some international capital cities, have articles named Central Business District, like Sudirman, Buenos Aires, Saskatoon, Prince Albert, Bangalore, Windhoek, Johannesburg. It seems odd to give special treatment to Miami. I am removing it from the hat note, if I have missed something and there's a reason it should be there, please discus and let me know.  Carlwev  06:26, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Ball (disambiguation)

message: -----
This was an interesting comment from Talk:Michael Ball (singer):
:Besides the footballer, there are numerous notable guys named Michael Ball. The leading underwater diver is one Australian skin diver. In Germany, there is the sculptor. There are noted U.S. and Canadian actors and singers with the name, as well as numerous influential business leaders. In Ireland there is a renowned classical composer and musician. While not exactly the "John Smith" of names, it is fairly common. There are quite a few carrying it who are more noted than the footballer. A blog covering these folk is Michael Ball Only Club.
While creating this page, I also stumbled upon some references to a cricketer named Michael Ball. I denoted him by Michael Ball (cricketer) Bertil 14:03, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
Talk:The Deep End of the Ocean

message: "Ben's dual-ethnic and family identity."  You have got to be kidding me.  While I can appreciate the subtle overtones of cross European Union relations, bottom line is they are white.  Even the EU doesn't consider the differences of Italy and Greece ethnic, they are part of the same EU community which makes it so much harder to swallow that because the little boy who was taken away from a US Italian family and raised in a US Greek family to be that far fetched, and thus sounds like something some white woman concocted to sound all that more oppressed since lacking more to complain about in their upper middle class white existence.
Now if the kid were (subjunctive mood emphasized since contrary to fact) raised in the ghetto, or the projects in Chicago's south side or maybe amongst the US Spanish-speaking / Latino - Hispano population, or Asian family to have taken him in, then Ok maybe I'd see the dual ethnic issues but not between Italy and Greece and should be deleted or refrained from use.

message: The first sentence states:
:Sixth Avenue – officially Avenue of the Americas, although this name is seldom used by New Yorkers[1]
Where reference 1 is dated 1978.  This reference is well over 30 years old; it was written only slightly over 30 years after the name change, which has hence now persisted for over twice as long as it had when the source was written.  I don't think this is therefore a valid source for present attitudes of New Yorkers to the subject.  Can we find a more up-to-date one? JulesH (talk) 09:17, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Question about the proof

message: Frankly, when I came to this page, I hated the proof. It was utterly unmotivated and had badly chosen trivial details thrown in that would be second nature to anyone able to understand the proof in the first place. It seemed to have been lifted almost entirely from Lang, which is better written but still unmotivated. Unfortunately, it seems Lang's presentation is common--the only other source I found is a very slight rearrangement.
That said, I spent some time finding the intuition behind the proof, which is actually really simple. Along the way I streamlined this article's proof and, most importantly, motivated the seemingly inspired choice of auxiliary function. Unfortunately, I don't have a source for any of these changes, since I made them up this evening. The result is, IMO, cleaner, quicker, and much clearer than Lang and its derivatives. Hopefully that's not a problem? The spirit of Lang's proof remains, for what it's worth.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.132.8.186 (talk) 07:39, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Transmission electron cryomicroscopy

message: In the scientific literature for this field, along with in structural biology courses and the popular press, this technique is known simply as "cryo-electron microscopy" or "cryo-EM," and it seems to be that "cryo-EM" and "cryo-TEM" are effectively synonymous in the scientific community today (someone please correct me on this if I'm wrong). I also don't think that the phrase "transmission electron cryomicroscopy" is a widely used term for the technique. Therefore, it seems weird to me that this article and the cryogenic electron microscopy article - which has mostly redundant information with this one - are separate, and that people searching for just cryo-EM are first directed to that page and not this one, which has more information. In my opinion, this article and cryogenic electron microscopy should be combined into a single article with a name reflecting what the technique is actually called (I would argue "cryoelectron microscopy" or "cryo-electron microscopy"), focusing primarily on Cryo-TEM but also mentioning cryo-SEM and cryo-ET.
