Talk:Southernmost settlements

message: All the difinitions of "settlement"** would include all permanent research stations of Antarctica. I think the exclusion of such stations is totally arbitrary, especially in the case of settlements like Villa Las Estrellas, in which many civils live and where you can find a church, a postal office, a bank, a school, and a library. Why this particular settlement is not a settlement?
** settlement: A community of people smaller than a town. / An area where a group of families live together. / A body of people who settle far from home but maintain ties with their homeland.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.83.168.197 (talk) 08:45, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Can anyone who wants to buy/rent/build a house there? I think not. Therefore it's a research station or military installation or whatever. New Zealand employs civilians as cooks/cleaners at Scott Base, but that doesn't make it a town. dramatic (talk) 01:46, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Reference for Ionosphere effects 

message: It is rather unusual for optical phenomena to be described in terms of permeability changes, and the reference provided does not deal with optical phenomena at all (it's about microwaves). If we look in a typical derivation of optical Faraday rotation (such as the Landau & Lifshitz volume on Electrodynamics), it exclusively involves a permittivity tensor while the permeability stays at 1. That's not to say that the permeability approach is wrong, it's just inapplicable for the usual case.  --Nanite (talk) 08:58, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

message: I'm concerned that the updating of channel changes is effectively erasing past history. As an encyclopedia we are suposed to be primarily concerned with the history of the subjects we cover.

Talk:Rivelin Rocks

message: The article apparently contradicts itself. In the first section it claims the rocks are on private property. In the second section it claims the rocks are within the bounds of a National Park.
They could fall across a boundary, but the article is not specific enough to be clear. 82.68.152.186
:Apologies if I'm being presumptious, but it sounds like you're thinking of national parks in the USA sense, where I believe they are publicly owned and preserved as wilderness. In the UK version of national parks, plenty of land is privately owned. They are not preserved as human-free wilderness areas, but as regular countryside (with private land, agriculture, buildings, small settlements, even light industry) with added protection to prevent over-development.

message: Most sites including this page translate Kettu in Kettuvallam into "tied", and attribute the word to the way these boats are built. This cannot be true - because that is the way all traditional boats are built in Kerala, not just Kettuvallams. Kettu here means "built" or "roofed" (kettu as in "Nalukettu", or "Kettidam"). So the correct translation of Kettuvallam is "Boat(vallam) with a roof".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.237.131.36 (talk) 14:00, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Radio Pakistan

message: Pakistan Broadcasting Corporation (PBC) is just the legal name for Radio Pakistan (RP). PBC/RP serves as the parent of Pakistan Television Corporation (PTV). PBC/RP was previously known as "Pakistan Broadcasting Service" (the legal name). This is made amply clear by the Radio Pakistan website itself:
:
What we have here is the legal name (PBC) of RP being projected as different entity altogether and as a parent company of both RP and PTV when it is same as RP and only serves as the parent company of PTV.

message: This issue has been brought up before many times. Personally, I find it tiring to have to go back to Wikipedia policy guidelines every time. Please check out Help:Infobox and for the MoS guideline, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Infoboxes. Nowhere there does it say that infobox has to have picture of a 'person' in it. It's OK to include closely related items such as book covers and art, quite acceptable per Wikipedia:Non-free content if the book is a subject of commentary directly in the body of article. Our policy/guideline under WP:NFCI for images states that non replaceable book covers can be used to illustrate articles about writers as publishing achievements → NFCI#1, the cover art implicitly satisfies the "contextual significance" NFCC criterion (NFCC#8), in the article about the author.
