Talk:Motivation theories

message: 'The Tall One' and another anonymous user has recently done some good work on this page, but can I draw your attention please to several pages that overlap significantly with this page, some of which already have reasonably polished content?
I did a fair bit of work on the following pages this week, but i have no idea how they should best fit together to minimise duplication. Motivational Theory,intrinsic motivation,Goal Theory,motivation,educational psychology.
I think, taken as a group, these pages need a co-ordinated edit maybe as a project or something. And I think combining the content of motivation theories and Motivational Theory and re-directing one to the other would be a good start, yes?

If the elevation 3,939 meters were listed in feet, the elevation would be 12,923 feet. This elevation is a more realistic elevation for a ski resort.

Remember, Girdwood is located at Sea Level.  Arkansas is not located at Sea Level.  Mountains are not often tens of thousands of feet tall.  They sit on bedrock that is far above the base elevation.

According to the resort's website, the snowfall average is 631 inches mid mountain and 742 inches at the summit.  The highest annual snowfall, according to the website, was 1,100 inches in the 1997/1998 and 1998/1999 seasons.  It doesn't make much sense to me to just list the 2008 snowfall total.

The revolution of 1964 deposed the democratically elected independent government of Zanzibar: A process agreed to by all parties to the election. The Sultan was but a constitutional monarch without executive powers. The revolution was not "popular".

We already list the previous year's information in the airport infobox, and as you rightly pointed out, people can go to the airport data page to see historical information. My standard is I try to list only three columns worth of years, and then remove the oldest ones once three columns is exceeded. Some pages indeed go ridiculous with the amount of years they list; just last week, I removed the oldest years at Dallas/Fort Worth because they had info going back to its opening in 1974 (and some of it wasn't even cited)! Per WP:NOTEVERYTHING, we really don't need to be listing the info at all and I would support removing the table entirely. However, once something becomes standard on the pages, you will get a lot of flack if you attempt to remove.
