Talk:Judeo-Malayalam

message: This article brings up the question:
Are there other Jewish languages based on Indian languages?
I've heard of several other groups of Jews in India besides the Cochin Jews, including the Bene Israel. Gringo300 02:04, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

message: I recomend that this article be deleted. There is no language called Judeo-Malayalam. The Jewish population in Kerala was never more than a few thousand and they spoke Malayalam, just like everyone else and used Hebrew for prayer. The languages did not mix, except when refering to religious activities. If you want to call Malayalam a Jewish language because some Jewish people spoke it that is fine, like calling English a Jewish language because Saul Bellow and other Jewish writers wrote in it but to say there is a seperate Judeo-Malayalam is ridiculous. It is not even a dialect. It's like saying there is Judeo-English.What did Disraeli and Lord Rothschild speak? English, not Judeo-English.

message: Would it not be helpful to add a full cast list? The FMV sequences are arguably a core element to the C&C franchise.
Also, I'm new to this so apologies if this is redundant but I'll be editing the line in the Plot subsection that previously read "Like all other Command & Conquer real-time strategy games, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 contains two separate campaigns, with distinct story lines, one for each playable faction."

text: While I certainly support a merge. I would strongly suggest the other way around; that the information in Order of St. Benedict article be merged to this article (Benedictine). As indicated there, the term Order, while in common use (such as in the postnominal letters OSB) is misleading in suggesting that there is a centralised organisation (when in fact there is only a loose federation between congregations, which are themselves generally loose federations between independent monastic houses). Any information about Benedictine history, the vows they take, etc., would be better included under the article title "Benedictine". Robotforaday (talk) 01:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I have again removed the statement that "a well-organized effort probably gains a candidate on the order of half a percentage point". I suspect the reference is to a particular type of election in a particular country. Political campaigns take place in all democratic countries and might range from a US presidential election with 100+m voters to a local authority election with maybe 500. So there will be considerable variation in the value of GOTV. As it stands this reference is unclear and potentially misleading, and should certainly not be in the lead of the article. asnac (talk) 12:19, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  "0.5% difference" 

message: The "Field Experiments" study cited for the 2-3% turnout increase figure does not, in fact, say 2-3% is the correct increased turnout amount.  It says "Analyzing the effects of 71 canvassing treatments reveals a weighted average CACE of 2.536, with a 95% confidence interval of (1.817, 3.255). In some ways this estimate understates the influence of canvassing because many of the studies target low propensity voters. For example, the Michelson (2006) study found that canvassing increased turnout among young Latino voters from 7.0% to 9.4%. Given a contact rate of 50%, the estimated CACE is 4.8 percentage points. This statistically significant increase would be even more impressive in percentage terms given the low base rate of voting."
Note the word "understates". In other words, the weighted average understated the influence of canvassing because many of the studies were not of average voters. If they had been, the canvassing turnout increase would have been higher. The authors then cited the Michelson study as an example: 4.8%.  This is in line with the 2016 overview I cited.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tannline (talk • contribs) 00:33, 14 May 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Esbat

message: :Those definitions of a "blue moon" are of a recent date as the original definition that gave rise to the phrase "once in a blue moon" has been generally forgotten. The original definition related to the moon actually being blue. This occurs when Venus is very close to the Earth and geocentricly on the opposite side of the Moon from the Sun and the sky is very clear. The dark part of the Moon is then illuminated by Venus and appears to be a pale blue color.
I've removed this text from the article, as it strikes me as being very unlikely -- the full Venus doesn't give off much light -- certainly less than the Earth.  Can anyone comment on this?
: Well, blue moon doesn't mention anything about Venus, but it does state that a blue colored moon does rarely happen. I made blue moon a wikilink, that should take care of it.

thread_title: Derivation of the word "esbat"

message: There are a few problems with all that info that's been recently added. First off, there's no context. Is this old pagan tradition, and if so, from which group or culture? Or is it a recent neopagan invention? Is this an authoritative set of names and description of qualities, or just one of several variations? Secondly, we need better references for this info than what is essentially an anonymous website that anyone could put up. Preferably a reliable published source, but a website of a very reputable witchcraft organisation might be permissible. Thirdly, this shouldn't be written as a "how you can observe an esbat" guide, but more as a description of what people who observe esbats think and do.
I'm not sure it's appropriate having all this info here, but seeing as you put the work in I'll see what you can make out of it. Fuzzypeg☻ 05:11, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

In one of the early novels (The Mourner?), Parker does think about his life before "The Hunter" - that he got his first gunshot wound while driving a truck of stolen tires from an Army base in England, and that he earned a BCD  (Bad Conduct Discharge) from the Army.

message: This entry states: "[Parker] does, however, live by one ethical principle: he will not double-cross another professional criminal with whom he is working, unless they try to double-cross him."
In fact, Chapter 6 of The Hunter/Point Blank (p. 42 in my edition) states: "Parker intended to take Mal's slice, too, which would give him a total of forty-five thousand — fifty percent of the take. That was the way it should be.... Parker planned on getting rid of Mal that night, but he hadn't counted on a double-cross, not one involving his wife."
So much for having "one ethical principle." In fact, Parker intended to double-cross (and kill) Mal, the fellow had who brought him in on the heist; it's just that Mal — along with Parker's wife Lynn — double-crossed Parker first.
