message: I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
*John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.)
and turns it into something like
* John Smith "" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
It will work on a variety of links, including those from ,  and .
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Talk:Heshbon

message: Lead & article: we need a clear distinction between
# the as yet not discovered Bronze Age Heshbon "of Sihon",
# Josephus's Herodian Esebonitis (Machaerus? Amathus? Gadora, identified with Tell Jadur at Salt?), and
#the classical city at Tell Hisban.
Two, maybe 3 different sites!
So, what is the topic of this article? Biblical Heshbon (if we stay focused on the tell: Israelite the earliest, but NOT Sihon's), the classical towns with similar names from ancient sources, or the concrete Tell Hisban with whatever it is known to contain? The confusion is deadly, it makes the page be largely misleading and close to useless. Arminden (talk) 19:34, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

message: The page as it is now shows everything that's wrong with Wikipedia articles with text dumped from outside sources. In this case, the text is dumped from two outside sources, with different perpsectives, different tone, and different content. Much of the article right now is simply irrelevant to the article itself. The point of an encyclopedia article, a tertiary source, is to clarify, encompass, and explain the secondary sources, at which this article right now utterly fails.

File talk:Ez-map.png

message: I would suggest to replace the picture with a picture highlighting the Vltava river instead of Labe. Despite their names Labe is a tributary of Vltava. If you want to have the real beginning of Labe (Elbe) on the picture, use picture with Vltava spring.
This is a historical mistake. All the pointers used when determining parent river and confluent speaks clearly. Vltava is the parent river as we can say based on the flow direction, amount of water and other indicators. When measuring long time ago a mistake was made.
I think its more common and appropriate to keep Labe as the only highlighted river.
I would suggest to add Silesia label as its is the third historical region of Czech Republic. Even though it now mainly lies in Poland, it is still taught at primary schools that Czech Republic consists of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jirizita (talk • contribs) 23:54, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Moyal product

message: So I don't really know anything about the Moyal product, but I do know this: given a polarization on a symplectic manifold, there is a privileged set of functions (classical observables) which give rise to quantum observables for which the correspondence principle holds, {f,g} = i[F,G] where on the left is denoted the Poisson bracket of functions and on the right is denoted the commutator of operators on Hilbert space, with the correspondence given by F=-i\nabla_{X_f}+f.  These functions are fixed by the polarization condition [f,P]=P, where P is a polarization.  Seems to me that the Moyal product for such polarizable observables should vanish after the second order term, and I guess this expectation is born out by some theorem that I only vaguely remember that polarizable observables are locally of the form of functions which are linear in the momentum (using the vertical polarization of the cotangent bundle).  Seems the second order derivatives in the higher order terms will kill all the terms for such functions.  
Thus the Moyal product ought to determine a set of polarizable functions, and it should be possible to recover the polarization from it.  I wonder if I've got it right?  My next question would be whether the Moyal product and the polarization are equivalent (that is, whether the polarization determines a Moyal product).  I expect not. -lethe talk [ +] 05:28, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Comprehension issue

message: I believe the following line is incorrect: "Specifically, in smooth muscle tissue, PKG phosphorylates and activates the Myosin light chain kinase which phosphorylates the regulatory myosin chains, thus initiating smooth muscle relaxation."
Phosphorylation of myosin results in smooth muscle contraction. There are two mechanisms of action for PKG resulting in relaxation of smooth muscle. 1) PKG phosphorylates potassium channels, increasing their open probability resulting in hyperpolarization of the smooth muscle cell, rendering it unable to contract. 2) PKG inhibits MLCK thus rendering it unable to phosphorylate myosin.

message: The material about showings of the Napoleon restorations is scrambled as of this date. The "new score by Carl Davis" presumably refers to the 2000 restoration, not the 1980 restoration, as the text currently indicates: the 1980 version was scored by Carmine Coppola. Live-orchestra-accompanied showings of the 1980 version were not confined to NYC and London, as implied, it was a traveling roadshow. I caught it in 1981 at the same Oakland Paramount that hosted the later restoration in 2012, and the film's article currently includes a photo that nicely documents its 1981 stand in Chicago. A 2013 London screening, which was presumably NOT of the 1980 version, is mentioned out of sequence, before note is made of Gance's death (in 1981), the 2000 restoration, and the 2012 Oakland showing.

I had not realized there were already two different scores in 1980-81: Carmine Coppola certainly composed and conducted the one I heard at the 1981 Oakland showing.
