Talk:Interstate 44

message: According to the Poplar Street Bridge article, I-44 technically ends on the Missouri/Illinois state line in the middle of the bridge, but the signage varies by state. It says that eastbound signage in Missouri stops at I-55 (like this article says) and westbound signage begins at the western end of the bridge. Since the Bridge article has a source and this does not, I will make this article conform to the bridge article, and cite the same source. Feel free to disagree.

Talk:Point

message: Please link to a page that answers what does it mean when the stock market is "up 3 points."
: I second this comment. I think there are many meanings within finance, even. Basis point doesn't seem to be it. There's also the Fed which recently "dropped rates by three quarters of a point" meaning "by 0.75%". I gather that an individual stock being "up three points" means "up three dollars per share", but like you, I came to this page wondering what it means for the Dow to be up three points. —Ben FrantzDale (talk) 23:15, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

message: What is the plural of 'status'? The Merriam-Webster says it's 'statuses', but it sounds awfull. Since it comes from Latin, should it be 'stati'?

:It generally shouldn;t be used as a plural since it's usually used as an adjective.  Example: it's not a report, it's a status report.  What if you have more than one?  Then it's two status reports. 129.2.151.136 16:28, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Don't have time to fix the article. [take your time...]  The only plural allowed by the Oxford English Dictionary is status pronounced statoos.  American dictionaries allow statuses.  stati is absolutely wrong - you will not find it in any dictionary.  For cross references other words take this form of the plural, as in apparatus.
Toni —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.106.139.37 (talk) 19:49, 9 May 2007
I have seen "apparati" as a plural of "apparatus," but the general rule is that regular English plurals of Latin words are acceptable and usually preferable.  Thus, "bread and circuses" is preferable to "bread and circi." Latin plurals should be reserved for use in humor or direct quotes from that language.  Worse abuses of Latin plurals are quite common, such as "medias", where "media" is already the plural of "medium."  Many media remind us that "the medium is the message."  As a noun, "status" should almost always be used in the singular, and rephrased when "more than one status" is unavoidable. Alan R. Fisher 10:10, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bird Girl

message: While researching this, I found disagreement regarding the number of statues that Judson originally cast. The original article, along with a few online resources, said that three statues were made. But other online resources said that four were made. After looking at these, I decided that the ones that claimed four to have been made seem generally more credible, and contain what seems like more complete info. Two of the articles claim to have the figure of four statues come directly from the sculptor's daughter, Alice Hayes. Anyway, here are the resources that I used the most, sorted by how many statues they claim were made (Yup, most of these are the same links I put in the article):
Four statues:
*Site dedicated to The Bird Girl, the most detailed article I found, with quotes from the sculptor's daughter.
*Savannah city web site about the sculpture, book and movie
*Letter by Alice Hayes regarding Bird Girl replicas - apparently the daughter herself.
Three statues:
*Bird Girl info and Sylvia Shaw Judson bio (find the Google cached copy if you don't want to become a member to see the whole article)
*Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil production interview with production designer Henry Bumstead.
*Message board posts with info about Jack Leigh... this one mentions that some reports suggest that there may have been four or even five.
*Savannah Morning News article about Judson
*And of course, the old version of this Wikipedia article (and therefore every Wikipedia-clone on the net).

Talk:Motorola 88000

message: I have heard multiple times (such as in this article about DWARF) that a major reason why the 88000 architecture got discontinued would have been that it had one or more "fatal flaws" in its design: flaws that would have made the projects' long-term technical goals impossible.
But what were they? I have a vague recollection that I once heard that it would have had something to do with cache and multiprocessing — something which the architecture was considered novel at at the time.
If someone has more insight into what issue it was, and has a credible source, please write a section in the article about it! I think that it could be quite interesting.

Note that P is undefined at present.
Note also that in order to prove Goedel's completeness theorem, this needs to parametric, that is both phi and psi may contain free variables.  The discussion of the incompleteness theorems in Craig Smorinski's article of that name in the "Handbook of Mathematical Logic" edited by Barwise contains an excellent discussion of diagonalisation lemmas.
