message: Was just reading the article and it notes "It was widely rumored that Jecker's motivation came from an American Tobacco Association offer to reward a victorious smoker with a tidy sum of $20,000.[2]" but does not introduce Jecker beforehand. I am assuming he was one of the smokers.

message: He was far from the greatest IMO, and as such that statesment is obviously POV. The guy simply compiled books from three generations of Arab gramatarians before him - contributing nothing new. It is unsourced and so removed. Pink Princess (talk) 12:11, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You were correct in removing the POV, but your characterization is absolutely wrong, sir. Sibawayh wasn't merely compiling work of grammarians before him; he quoted from authorities, but no scholar of the Arabic language - East or West - claims what you're claiming here.

thread_title:  Greatest? 

message: I just obtained source 3 from university Metalib. The use of it in the statement is biased towards a Persian Nationalism agenda - it quotes the opinions of his followers as to the partisanship of the scholars in the debate, but not the opinions of the scholars that the guy's knowledge of the Arabic language was frankly not good enough. I have removed that biased quote as it firstly serves no purpose but to flasely bolster the greatness of the guy for political agendas. Pink Princess (talk) 12:20, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I have researched this individual extensively and I have never seen, at any time, from a recognized scholar of the Arabic language from any part of the world, the claim that Sibawayh's knowledge "wasn't good enough."

text: Apparently, it is an entirely anonymous website maintained by an unknown and unnamed organization, with no known address or contact information, or any specific persons having any responsibility for the organization. The money that is given is apparently done so through anonymous donors at an anonymous ceremony at an undisclosed location somewhere in the world (presumably on Earth). It is quite unusual for a professional website to deliberately and intentionally not disclose any ownership of the site or organization at all. Is it the intention of the organization owner to deceive visitors? Stevenmitchell (talk) 01:03, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I've always assumed it was the race organisers and IAAF that jointly funded this competition. It would be good to get confirmation of that. The ownership of the website by "World Marathon Majors" is clear in the terms and conditions, so it's not a massive mystery – it's quite common for funding of a private enterprise not to be published. Indeed, that is one of the benefits of being a private company over being a publicly-traded one. SFB 10:26, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: I found the original table on page 182 of Wireless Communication in the United States by Thorn L. Mayes, which was published by the The New England Wireless and Steam Museum, Inc. in 1989. I've updated the article page and added references. At some point someone added two Argentinian Telefunken alternators to the table, which aren't included in Mayes review, so I removed them. I also added a second Mayes table that reviews the seven Alexanderson alternators used by the U.S. military during and after WWII.--Thomas H. White (talk) 23:41, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

text: I added an online reference (for easier verification) that appears to be a 1975 reprint of the same two tables by Thorn L. Mayes. I was initially skeptical of the numbers, because the text says "A typical alternator with an output frequency of 100 kHz", and so I expected about half of the actual broadcast frequencies to be above that 100 kHz number, but the actual broadcast frequencies in that table top out at 25.8 kHz. So is "100 kHz" not at all typical, and should be replaced with something more like "A typical alternator with an output frequency of 18 kHz"? Or is 100 kHz actually typical, and this article should mention "typical" Alexanderson radio stations nearer or above 100 kHz? --DavidCary (talk) 17:09, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Mall of Memphis

message: The line "Memphis is the largest enclosed shopping mall ever to cease operations in the United States." can't be true, unless it's referring to something else. Cinderella City Mall in Englewood, Colorado had 1.35 million square feet of retail space compared to Memphis' 800,000+. Before I edit this, can someone provide clarification on this? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xtsubarublazin (talk • contribs) .
I believe that information was originally sourced from Preservation Magazine, a publication of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The original article read:
"On Christmas Eve, Tennessee's Mall of Memphis earned the dubious honor of being the largest shopping mall ever to close its doors. If, years from now, we come to recognize this closing as a turning point in the history of American retailing, it will mark the end of an era that began partly in the late 19th century with the great Chicago architect Daniel Burnham and peaked in the 1950s with a socialist designer from Vienna, Victor Gruen. These men are the subjects of two new books that push us to think about how to create engaging spaces in our sprawled cities."

replies: text: I agree that if the fact is wrong, it should be corrected, but there is some confusion in this area. References to the mall in 1995 claim 1.1 million sqft of space. References in 1999 claim 1.2 million sqft of space so it's not clear what the final size was. I do know that in 1997 new construction added more retail space to the mall proper and the icerink was expanded to regulation size. There was also 400,000 sqft of additional retail space along the mall entranceway which was owned and managed by the mall and considered part of the mall, but it was not part of the "enclosed" area proper.  I have posed our question to the reviewer of the books who made the original statment, Max Page - associate professor of architecture and history at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and author of The Creative Destruction of Manhattan. He is out for the holidays but I will report his response back here when received, and or he may respond himsef as I invited him to join our discussion. Happy Holidays all!
