Talk:Metanoia (rhetoric)

message: This ain't wiki Mathiastck 22:04, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Needs more wiki 

message: -    
- The primary usage of metanoia is as the root of the New Testament term repent, not the obscure reference treated as the primary subject in this laughably pedantic article.  Evidently the self-appointed admin doesnt care about content accuracy.
:I have to admit I have never heard this used as a rhetorical term before either.  I'm not exactly familiar with the religious term either, but at least I've heard it.  As far as I can tell, the two different senses should be swapped.  But I'm not certain enough.  --Jorend 19:28, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:MOMA, Wales

message: The article reads more like an advertisment than an encyclopaedia article; probably because it was written by the founder of the institution in question.

Talk:Wardroom

message: 'Prior to jet airliners, it was the US Navy that was charged with transporting our Presidents and diplomats to foreign shores as well as providing the entertaining facilities for these dignitaries aboard their ships.
In the very early 20th Century and up until WWII the dining rooms and salons found in the US Navy's Flag Ships were second to none to any European Castle or Palace! '
Err, isn't this rather US-centric? Not to mention not terribly encyclopaedic.
+ The whole article appears rather US-centric: It's almost entirely about the US navy, it refers to 'our' president, and the sentence discussing the luxury of early 20th C ward rooms sounds very unprofessional.  I am editing now. 66.61.126.91 22:22, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Info about the dietary sources..... 

message: These names, begining with Greek letters, seem to imply that there is also a substance with name beta linolenic acid (or β linolenic acid).  However, I have not found any information of it from any source, not even with Google. This is only a guess, but: Perhaps that is because it is rare and it has not, or is not known to have, any important physiological or nutritional significance, at least not to humans. And therefore it perhaps is known only to some few chemists.  Does anyone know something of it? Does it even exist? -FKLS (talk) 21:12, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Beta linoleic acid? 

message: I have removed the statement 
 The unmodified term linolenic acid most commonly refers to this substance."
from under the link to alpha linolenic acid.  Because it is difficult to separate alpha linolenate from gamma linolenate (usually in the form of the methyl esters), the sum of the concentrations of the two is usually reported, as "linolenic acid" or "linolenate."  Because no attempt has been made to separate the two, the isomeric composition is not known and the reference is not exclusively to either one of the two isomers.  That is, "the unmodified term linolenic acid" does not "most commonly refer" to either one of the substances alone, but to a binary mixture of unknown quantitative composition.
because it causes DPL bot to flag links to linolenic acid as requiring disambiguation
even though what is meant is the mixture. - Rod57 (talk) 22:51, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually, I thought that was one of the most interesting things about the book.  The doctor is this self-absorbed mad scientist type (I mean, come on, his name is Dr. Igor), conducting dangerous experiments on his patients without their consent or knowledge, and yet he actually manages to do something good, as if by accident.  As for whether it's believable, well, I don't think it's supposed to be.  That's part of its charm. - AdelaMae (talk - contribs) 04:48, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I wonder whether we should have a discussion in this article about whether the book is medically accurate? I finished the book towards the end of 2009, and while I think it is a good novel, I am sure that some people must have discussed whether the book is always medically accurate. For example, Zedka Mendel is treated with insulin therapy, and we are told that this goes back to "about 1930"  - which is only half-accurate, it goes back at least as far as 1928 (Manfred Sakel was not the first person to use it). Just how The Da Vinci Code can be praised as a great novel but one which contains inaccuracies, surely we could discuss whether everything in this novel is medically accurate (for example, is it really likely that Veronika's sexual activities would be observed in a depressive?)ACEOREVIVED (talk) 22:17, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

I'm the only Protest Warrior who bothers with this article on anything resembling a regular basis, and I have had little to no impact on most of the content beyond reverting vandalism.  While I'm here and editing the article namespace no matter what the article is, I am a Wikipedian first and foremost.  You can whine about PW writing it's own article all you want, but it simply isn't true.  What's happening here is Wikipedians preventing you from using the encyclopedia as a means of attack; the first reversions had nothing to do with me or any other Protest Warriors.

thread_title: Infobox

message: I think this article needs some revision, but I'd like to make a statement of intention before I do any editing. Generally, I think it's too long and many sections are unnecessarily padded. For an article of its length, it cites very few sources, and I suspect this is because a lot of the information isn't very encyclopaedic. It suffers from a kind of pernicious creep that often affects articles whose only editors have an institutional loyalty to the subject. More specifically:
1. Much of the information about the facilities is given undue weight. For instance, the fact that computer facilities are air conditioned is not relevant.
2. It uses imprecise (and sometimes innacurate) language with respect to time. The junior school's media center was built in the '90s -- it's not "new". (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(dates_and_numbers)#Precise_language)
3. There remains quite a bit of POV language -- though this has improved. I can't think of a measure by which the Triangular can neutrally be described as "prestigious".
4. We don't need a table with pictograms to describe the school's sporting activities -- there are only sixteen listed.
5. Notable old boys without Wikipedia articles can hardly be considered notable old boys.
6. There are a handful of errors of style. For some reason, schools seem to try to wedge as many capital letters into articles about themselves as they can. Neither high school, junior school, media center, old boy nor water polo should receive caps.Oldernews (talk) 11:53, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
