replies: text: Both bacteria and archaea can be methanotrophs. Dan (talk) 03:36, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Bacteria or Archaea

message: It is very unlikely that methanotrophs could play a serious role in collecting methane from the open atmosphere. The methane concentration is just too low for that (~2ppm).  It is of course true that the natural methane budget is greatly affected by methanotrophs.  At the very least the claim that methanotrophs are being engineered to remove methane from the atmosphere needs a citation. I suspect, a more likely engineering option is to use methanotrophs in locations with high methane concentrations to clean up, e.g., in rice paddies, ruminant stomachs, land fills etc.  This of course would help with the overall greenhouse gas budget.  My suggestion is to do a literature search and change the text according to the outcome.

Talk:Theia

message: I removed a cryptic reference to Ikhnaie, since 'town of Thesprotia' seemed wrong. Modern Thesprotia is actually a region and I suppose the ancient one was too. Also the term 'tracing goddess' didn't make sense. Anyone who can figure this out (and provide a source!) is welcome to restore the information. For more clues consider looking at Ichnaea and Themis. The word 'tracing' could mean tracking? As in hunters tracking animals? EdJohnston (talk) 14:12, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Pronunciation 

message: I'm surprised to read that Theia is the oldest daughter of Gaia and Uranus since, as far as I know, Oceanus is the oldest son and Tethys is the oldest daughter among the first generation of titans. This article claims that, according to Hesiod, Theia was the eldest daughter at line 132 of the Theogony. I checked this link: http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0130%3Acard%3D104. I cannot confirm that claim and Theia is mentioned after line 135. I see at least two inconsistencies.

replies: text: Here’s what Hesiod says: “But afterwards [Gaia] lay with Heaven and bore deep-swirling Oceanus, Coeus and Crius and Hyperion and Iapetus, [135] Theia and Rhea, Themis and Mnemosyne and gold-crowned Phoebe and lovely Tethys.” (Theogony 132–136) So Theia is the first daughter listed by Hesiod. I think that Hesiod means that Theia was the oldest of the Titanides. But I think we would really need a source saying this, to assert this in the article. Paul August ☎ 21:39, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Request stop

message: I am under the impression that these two are not actually synonyms. The subtle difference is that a request stop is announced by the train personnel ("Anyone for St. Matthews?") but a flag stop is not. However, my greater concern about this article is that it is not Wikipedia-worthy. Flag stop and Request stop are merely terms to be defined in the Wiktionary. WP:NOT#dict MKoltnow 20:00, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Request stop vs. Flag stop

message: I grew up near Country Park Halt railway station and have always wanted to know, how, exactly, does one request a train to stop, if one is standing on the platform? Do you just hold out your hand as if hailing a bus or taxi? I always had visions of getting my hand ripped off by a hulk of black iron steaming out of the woods; there is almost no visibilty up the line from the platform when the leaves are on the trees. If someone could clarify this please? Andrew Oakley 13:39, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: How do you request a train to stop from the platform

message: The well-known English comedy duo "Flanders and Swann" include the omnibus request stop in their "Transport of Delight" :

"I stops at by-request stops,<BR>
Although it quite spoils the ride,<BR>
So he can shout,"<BR>
(Flanders, profundo basso, as the conductor) <BR>
"Gerrout of it,<BR>

Talk:Ghulam Rasool Jamaati

message: This needs to be rephrased and added to the article:
----
Mufti Ghulam Rasool was born in 1923 in the city of Gujrāt, Pakistan. He received the major part of his Islamic education from the “Teacher of the Teachers” `Allāmah  Sultān Ahmad  d. 1999/1420 whose educational transmission extends to the renowned scholar and jurist of his era `Allāmah Fadl al-Haq Khayrābādī d. 1278/1861. During his stay in Pakistan he taught the Islamic sciences as well as issuing fatwas on various issues. In 1985 he moved to Britain and began teaching in London at the madrassa (Islamic school) of one of the world’s foremost Muslim scholars, Sayyid `Abd al-Qādir Jilānī. During this period, he was also appointed honorary Mufti of The Muslim Council UK in 1990 and has since issued over two thousand fatwas.   Fluent in Arabic, Persian and Urdu, the Mufti is a master in numerous fields of Islamic scholarship including Jurisprudence, Principles of Jurisprudence, Exegeses, Principles of Exegesis, hadith, Principles of hadith,  Doctrine, Logic, Scholastic Theology, Philosophy, Sufism, Moral and Ethical Philosophy, Polemics, Astronomy, Morphology, Syntax, Rhetoric, Oratory, Lexicology, Literature (including pre-Islamic), Poetry and others. As well as teaching and issuing fatwas, he has authored around forty books on a variety of topics from the aforementioned sciences. 
His books are generally meant for the scholars (`ulamā’) or the more learned audience. In terms of his work on jurisprudence, his classical style of fatwa writing has acclaimed him great authority as detail, comprehensiveness and rigour are not excluded from any of his fatwas. His command on the sacred and legal sources, and the ability to apply them to practical legal problems is the cause for his reverence among the more learned Sunni circles of the sub-continent.
