thread_title: Pittu or Puttu?

message: I lived in both Kerala and Tamilnadu...
I never see a tamilian eating puttu in my entire life at TN, i can't even spot a single place (except where mallu foods are served) where puttu is served, but in kerala its the common breakfast...
So why it is put it under tamil cuisine... I dont think Puttu has any tamil origin...
someone plz correct the article...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nubin wiki (talk • contribs) 09:53, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  How come puttu a tamil cuisine..??? 

message: Puttu disappeared from Tamil Nadu when Tamil Nadu was defeated and occupied by Madurai Nayaks 450 years ago. Similarly Onam was celebrated by ancient Tamils but not modern Tamils who instead have adopted many Telugu festivals and customs. 
There is a legend that Shiva (Chokkanathan)the ancient god of ethnic Tamils took the humble form of a labourer, carried earth to be used for the construction of Madurai temple  and ate Pittu. Pittukku Mann Sumantha kathai . Pittu was given as wages in ancient Tamil Nadu. 
The Tamil form Pittu is still used in Central Kerala while the word Puttu is commonly used in Southern Kerala.Many Malaylees with Dravidian roots may actully descend from ancient Tamils of the Chera dynasty while all the Tamils of presentday Tamilnadu may not descend from ancient Tamils.

Talk:Thiru. V. Kalyanasundaram

message: Shouldn't the proper name of the article be: Thiru V. Kalyanasundara Mudaliar? -- Avi 16:52, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "Tiru" is the Tamil equivalent of "Mr." - it's always used with his name as a mark of respect. Mudalaiyar is a caste suffix.  V. Kalyanasundaram was against the caste system and usually wrote his name without adding "Mudalaiyar", so I'd say that V. Kalyanasundaram is probably the best place for it.  -- Arvind 23:47, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Immaculate Heart Preparatory School

message: 1.  The articles Immaculate Heart High School and Immaculate Heart Preparatory School are two articles about the same school.  Therefore, they should be merged into one.
2.  According to the school's official website, the name of the school is "Immaculate Heart High School".    Does anyone have any reason to doubt this is the school's true name?
(There is also an elementary school attached to it called "Immaculate Heart Academy", not to be confused with this high school in New Jersey.  .)
3. There is also an Immaculate Heart High School in Los Angeles.  Its Wikipedia article is Immaculate Heart High School (Los Angeles).
Therefore, I propose that the two pages on the Arizona school be merged into a single page, which would be named either Immaculate Heart High School (Arizona) or Immaculate Heart High School (Oro Valley, Arizona).  The page simply named "Immaculate Heart High School" would then become a disambiguation page. — Lawrence King (talk) 00:23, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Article feedback points

message: The article states that the horizontal stabilizer shares lift with the wing.  Is this commonly true?  I thought the most common situation was for the H. stabilizer to provide a downward force in level flight to enhance stability wrt stall (.i.e. loss of lift results in a nose-down recovery rather than a stall).  99.245.230.104 (talk) 23:43, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It was quite incorrect, have edited it to a more correct form. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 00:00, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

text: Confirm. A stabilo behind the centre of gravity must provide negative lift to be effective. A stabilo before the centre of gravity is effective while adding to lift - which is why all early aeroplanes had them, and also why canard aircraft are intrinsically more efficient.

I have made some attempts to clear up/add to the article. This page is justified by the presence of articles on ancient minor rabbis on wikipedia. Prominence cannot be assesed without POV.

Talk:Hallmark Holiday

He was fired, and placed on the List 99 watchlist (for those deemed unsuitable to teach children), but the then headmaster, David Raeburn, gave Dodd a 'glowing reference' when he emigrated to New Zealand shortly afterwards, enabling him to continue teaching children.

The only wiggle room for self-published authors is in ¶2 of WP:SELFPUB which allows for inclusion if their "work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications".
