message: The question whether Klangfarbe should be translated as "Tone-color" or "Sound-color" has implicitly been discussed: Jerome Kohl replaced the first term by the second on 13 June 2011. I now completed the reference to Schoenberg's Harmonielehre, in the 'official' translation of which Roy Carter translates Klangfarbe as "tone-color". This, to me, is the more appropriate translation, but I did not modify it in the first paragraph of the article, awaiting further comments.

Talk:New Technology Telescope

message: Shouldn't this article make reference to the original MMT , which was the first active, segmented mirror telescope? The claim that NTT is the first active mirror telescope is not accurate. The MMT dates back over 25 years. Like the NTT, the MMT was an alt/az telescope.
Drphysics 16:14, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Segmented mirror telescopes

message: I've been researching the history of active optics for another text, and from that perspective, the current statements about the Nordic Optical Telescope seem to be a bit misleading. That telescope does have pneumatic support for the main mirror, but it was designed as a purely passive system (the mirror is still thick enough for that), see http://www.not.iac.es/telescope/tti/proptxt.html
The designers were aware that the configuration with the pneumatic support would allow to extend the system to include active optics, and such a system was installed some time in 1992 (may be starting a bit earlier, and finishing a bit after that; the article only mentions that the system "is being installed"), see http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu//full/1992ESOC...42..311A/0000312.000.html
Given that information, I'm changing the wording in that part of a text somewhat, to what I think is a more accurate version. Markus Pössel (talk) 13:05, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, since there was so little about the active optics aspect to begin with, having no details except for the largely irrelevant NOT mention seemed misleading; I have removed NOT mention here, and will see if I can add the active optics information to the NOT lemma.

Talk:The Butler Way

message: This article is relevant as it defines The Butler Way, which is alluded to in the Butler Bulldogs article in Wikipedia.  The Butler Way is a term that has been used (probably over-used) throughout the course of the 2006-2007 Men's NCAA College Basketball season by broadcasters and sportswriters nationwide.  The description in this article is the definition given by current Butler Athletic Director Barry Collier, who is often credited with resurrecting the term (and the attitude) during his time as the Butler University Basketball coach in the 1990's.

Talk:Allentown Art Festival

message: This sounds like an advertisement. Not to mention the POV spread through out this article. DragonFire1024 (talk) 14:53, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Advertisement 

message: I agree with DragonFire. This "article" needs a serious rewrite, preferably by someone familiar with the AAF, but NOT directly connected with it, as is OBVIOUSLY the case here.
The section towards the end, specifically the lines: 
"Through the negotiated agreements with the City, merchants are not allowed to display merchandise outside their stores during festival hours and street art (beyond the juried artists) and music is not permitted.", 
-and- 
"From 2003 - 2005 the Music is Art festival, a charity event founded by Goo Goo Dolls member Robby Takac, was held on adjoining streets concurrent with the Art Festival. In an effort to protect the integrity of the established, nationally renowned Allentown Art Festival, the Allentown Village Society met with Robby Tatak and City leaders to find an alternative date or location for the Music is Art Festival; in 2008, the Music is Art Festival found a comfortable home in Buffalo at the Albright Knox Art Gallery and historic Delaware Park."
Both of these statements are heavily biased towards, and overlook the behavior and heavy-handed tactics of the Allentown Village Society. Those who live in the Allentown neighborhood, and the participants in the second Music Is Art Festival are fully aware of the behavior exhibited by the Allentown Village Society when they actually attempted to block access to the street the MIA Festival was taking place on by placing two large food concession carts across the entrance to that street, leaving an opening that ONE person could comfortably walk through, and the subsequent comedy of errors that took place when no one could be "located" to move the carts and reopen a street that wasn't supposed to be blocked. I will probably undertake the rewrite of this "article" myself, however, I cannot offer any kind of a timeframe as to when. If someone else steps in and addresses the issues that need to be cleared up, that will be good too. Osirisascending (talk) 23:58, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Tacoma riot of 1885

message: Doesn't the title of this ugly chapter of local Seattle-Tacoma area (and general West Coast American) history need an update? I mean the title "Tacoma riot of 1885" white washes the racist nature of the event and the fact that an entire community was expelled from the Seattle-Tacoma area, first in Tacoma in 1885 and then in Seattle in 1886, on the basis on their nationality. It doesn't make clear that these riots were expressions of hate aimed at a people solely because of their nationality. I think a better title for this event might be the "Tacoma Anti-Chinese Riots And Chinese Expulsion 1885." There is a just published book by an author named Jean Pfaelzer about this ugly history titled "Driven Out: The Forgotten War Against Chinese Americans." Perhaps one of the reasons why this history is largely forgotten is that we don't even properly name the events surrounding the driving out of Chinese immigrants from local communities across the West Coast.
I wanted to throw this out there to see what other people had to say about it before attempting to change the title of the historical event. --Chiefbromden 19:14, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Being an encyclopedia, "we" don't get to decide what the event is called. If you can find sources referring to the event as something else, then we can change it.

Talk:Attack on Squak Valley Chinese laborers, 1885

message: I propose to change the name of this article to "Attack on Squak Valley Chinese laborers, 1885" for the following reasons: 1) the area was not known as Issaquah until 1892; and, 2) there was no riot as in "a noisy, violent public disorder" (dicionary.com) - it was a stealth raid on a camp late a night.

replies: text: It seems like there could be three bases for considering a house an upper house. (1) It has more power now (e.g. the U.S. Senate has power to ratify treaties and confirm nominees). (2) It used to have more power (e.g. The House of Lords used to be the more powerful body). (3) It's more elite in some way, or less accountable to the voters. (E.g.

Actually, I think they always had the authority, but implementation used to be more complicated. BDA was cut off in March will persumably be liquidated. IMO, it's only natural that the U.S. Treasury exercises authority over U.S. dollar accounts where ever they might be located. Otherwise, any overseas bank could just create U.S. dollar accounts out of funny money deposits. I know that China has regulations concerning yuan accounts overseas, so its not only the U.S. that does this. The counterfeit North Korean notes used to be called "superbills," but there is now readily available technology to detect them. If BDA was fooled, it's because they didn't want to know.

Talk:Wyandotte Constitution

message: The user Ndickinson1 keeps on adding a section on supposed conflict with 14th Amendment, believing the word "men" represents "male privilege".
First, "men" has been used throughout history to mean "A human regardless of sex or age; a person" (thefreedictionary) in English and this usage remains current as is easily confirmed by consulting any decent dictionary.
Second, even if you chose to interpret "men" to mean males, there is NO conflict.
The statement "All Greeks have a right to life" in NO way conflicts with "All humans have a right to life".  Same with males instead of Greeks.
The section on the supposed conflict is based on an illusion caused by poor understanding of English usage and of rudimentary logic.
