Talk:Virgo Stellar Stream

message: user:Trebor Rowntree has suggested that Large Pathetic Galaxy be merged into Virgo Stellar Stream. 
----
Large Pathetic Galaxy is a small pathetic article that has apparently been thru two AfDs, resulting in no Keep advocacies, but no agreement abt whether to merge or delete. It sounds real; if it is factually  within this topic, please merge it with this, or vote for deletion.--Jerzy•t 20:05, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: MergeFrom [[Large Pathetic Galaxy]]

message: *Delete that article. The discussion is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Large pathetic galaxy (second nomination). The phrase is already mentioned in this article (Virgo Stellar Stream) and for other reasons outlined in the AFD, I recommend deletion. It's not a name or even an informal designation for the VSS so a redirect (the result of a merge) would be misleading. — coelacan — 18:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

message: "Large pathetic galaxy" seems to be a pathetically dead article. Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 17:42, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: End of survey

message: Article states that the VSS "is the largest galaxy visible from the Earth, in terms of the area of the night sky covered". I'm not an astronomer, but I'd be very surprised if the Milky Way wasn't larger in terms of covered area. In other words, is there a reference for this? Or did the editor mean "the second largest galaxy"? 143.106.128.114 (talk) 23:01, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Especially considering the apparent size of the Milky Way is arguably 360°x360°, ie the entire sky, since stars in it are visible in every direction. 94.194.66.92 (talk) 04:47, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Largest galaxy? 

message: The names Virgo Stellar Stream and Virgo Overdensity seems to occur in the sources. From where come the misleading names Virgo Dwarf Galaxy, and Virgo super star cluster? It's not a galaxy any more, and it's nothing like a star cluster. Perhaps a star cloud, but not a cluster. Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 17:45, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I cannot find a galaxy that is named Virgo Dwarf Galaxy, just a lot of dwarf galaxies in Virgo, f.ex. IC 3475. Neither can I find Virgo super star cluster on Google. I think those "names" are as imaginative and unreal as "Large Pathetic Galaxy". Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 17:52, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

message: The keyboard in DIDAKTIK ALFA (and alet Beta), was a military-grade rugged, you could hammer it, and it would not complain. The way this was done that the top of the key was in a sliding mechanism and holding a small magnet, this could be lowered by pressing the key, which then got closer to a Hall effect sensor. This solution was pretty expensive, and still lacked the agility necessary for true gaming, as the key would not move if you pressed it with a lot of side force. It was however a very well overengineered piece of equipment. The same keys were used in a lot of other equipment.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.149.115.252 (talk) 17:25, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Kansas Turnpike

message: Am I the only one that thinks that Interstate 335 shouldn't redirect to the section on this page anymore? Since AASHTO has now approved Oklahoma's request to designate the Kickapoo Turnpike in their state as I-335 and signs for such will be put up on the road this year. Like I think that the Interstate 335 (disambiguation) page that I created earlier this year should be renamed Interstate 335, the existing page that redirects to the section on this article be deleted, and create a new page titled "Interstate 335 (disambiguation)" that redirects to the existing page of the same name.

Talk:Bob Roberts

message: This article about the film 'Bob Roberts' comes off as a favorable review/promotion instead of an objective encyclopedia article.  For example, an actual conservative may find Robbins' portrayal of his subject snide, manipulative, and unrealistic.  Further, there is an unquestionable agenda at work in this film which is strangely undiscussed in the article: the conception that Republican politics has reduced itself to corrupt demogougery.  Obviously, this movie was made before the Clinton era, which unmasked the same behavior in Robbins' compatriots.  I will not edit the article just yet, but until some mention of these failings is made the article can under no circumstances be truly called NPOV. 162.33.128.142 19:15, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Is This An Encyclopedia Article?

message: The article has several grammatical errors and errors of bias. An example of an apparent error of the second type is that Robbins' politics are described as involving "radicalism and leftist beliefs". This seems to betray a point of view, and I plan to correct this after a period of public comment and review. Also, the article is not yet Wikified.Azlib77 09:32, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Proposed Changes

message: It claims neither Paiste nor Roberts' political parties are named but we can more than imply for Paiste.  During a news broadcast watched by the Roberts bus, the station's banner clearly reads Paist's name and "D-Pennsyvania"  It is possible but very unlikely that this movie breaks real-world news nomenclature or that Robbins invented a political party he never mentions by name.  Unfortunately I find it easier to write my own pieces than edit others' and retain their spirit.  Any volunteers?

:Robbins made the film on a budget of only $4 million by enlisting many of his friends as cast members, including Gore Vidal, Giancarlo Esposito, Alan Rickman, Harry J. Lennix, David Strathairn, James Spader, Helen Hunt, Peter Gallagher, Jack Black, Robbins' longtime companion Susan Sarandon, Fred Ward, Fisher Stevens, John Cusack, Bob Balaban and Jeremy Piven.
:A soundtrack album was never released because Robbins feared that the songs might be played out of context. The Californian punk rock band The Vandals covered the song "Complain" on their album Play Really Bad Original Country Tunes.

replies: text: I don't know if vandalism is the reason for the number of missing terms I would have expected to find, but surely a discussion of <<quem queritis>>, Fleury, and troping in general, with a longer discussion of early Easter plays, should have appeared.
Discussions of points of view bewteen secondary writers like Young, Chambers, Harding, et al should also be given, as well as references to the work of Smolden, Corbet, and Lange, just for starters. Translations and transcriptions by a variety of others deserve attention as well.
The 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia is useful for some kinds of information but it predates the use of more verifiable historical information on the plays (and many other things) by nearly a century now. I agree with the other writer above that this article is insufficient, and should be taken at most as a possible viewpoint on the plays from a well-intended but incompletely informed source.
I, also, could be enticed to write a replacement, but would need the time to do so. I'm just working to get a single article out on a few newly found references to one cathedral's presentation in France, and that's taken long enough!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.34.104.12 (talk) 12:07, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Becoming Gyōji 

message: I changed the legend from Japanese to roman letters and added a .png that has been around since 2005 of a gyoji's costume.  It is used on various wikis.  I did start out translating them into English, but many of the words are not easily translatable in one word. A prime example is eboshi, which uses the kanji "bird hat" which sounds a bit ridiculous and has no other direct translation.  I thought someone (me eventually?) could go in and make a section explaining each part of the costume at some point.  What there is now is still better than what the other wikis are using, which is the unaltered .png with no roman letters. FourTildes (talk) 01:06, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
