Category talk:Critics of Scientology

message: Just what is the point of this page? Imagine a page with critics of Christianity, it would go on for pages. What function does this page have.Chrisp7 09:24, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree wholeheartedly. I think this is a flawed category. As a a construct, what is its contrast pole? L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology followers? Anyone who has never said a word about it?  I think it's okay to have a Scientology category but "Critics of Scientology" as a category is card-stacking and has too much potential for creating abuses. Once tagged as a critic of Scientology, the Wikipedia entry could become a target, especially given the philosophy of "attack the attacker" as noted on the Scientology page. I have no dog in this fight. I have noticed a few instances of where pages get tagged with this category getting completely mauled.I just don't think Wikipedia should get involved in any campaign to target people.

Talk:Order of the Falcon

message: that Sue McCourt Cobb (US Ambassador to Jamaica) had received this award.  But I got to thinking and it turns out that she did NOT get it.  Her husband, Charles Cobb, former US Ambassador to Iceland DID receive it, but if makes me a bit suspicious of all the other folks who got it.  Does it effect you that way too?

Talk:Order of the Golden Kite

message: Does it make sense to limit new additions to this short list? 
Is it appropriate at this stage of the article's development to initiate a standard limiting names on this select list to 
:(a) those who already have Wikipedia articles 
:and 
:(b) those who are notable for something other than being honored with this Imperial decoration -- see, e.g., US Navy Cross edit history? 
This diff is a first step in seeking consensus opinion.
In a context informed by practices which seem to have worked out well at Navy Cross, all new additions who aren't already featured in an article are re-redirected to this talk page section with the following edit history explanation:
::people listed here must have articles on Wikipedia and be notable for something other than receiving this Japanese honor -- see "Status: Notability" on talk page
The names of those recipients whose award is confirmed by a reliable source, but who do not have an article yet are listed below:
* 7th class? Kaneda ChoujirouPrivate, IJA, Awarded on April 1st, 1906; Registered as number 78,450; Personal possession of original award document -  --?
* 7th class? Fujioka YoshikazuPrivate, 1st Class (Posthumous), IJA, Awarded on June 18th, 1940; Registered as number 304,311; Personal possession of original award document and award -  --?

Talk:Carnation

message: Does the color of water affect a white carnation?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water and dissolve material though cell membranes. Diffusion is the process by which many materials move in and out of cells. The difference between osmosis and diffusion is that diffusion is a form of passive transport. When the surrounding environment has a higher concentration of dissolved solids or gases than the concentration of those in a cell they are able to pass through the plasma membrane. In diffusion items are moving down from a higher to lower concentration. Osmosis, on the other hand is a special type of diffusion. Unlike diffusion, osmosis can involve moving both from higher to lower and lower to higher concentrations.
Most plants drink water from the ground through their roots. The water travels up the stem of the leaves and flowers. When a flower is cut, it doesn’t have roots anymore. The stem  of the flower still drinks up the water and provides it to the leaves and flowers.
The scientific name for a carnation is 
Dianthus caryophyllus. The Carnation is a flowering plant native to the near east and has been cultivated for the last 2,000 years.
The water does effect the color of the plant. The water or more like the color of the water gets sucked up by the plant. The plant turns into the color of the water and that's why carnations are red or blue or whatever.
:Hey, uh... anyone know why this is here? --SheeEttin 01:32, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Affect of color? 

message: Carnations require neutral to slightly alkaline soil (6.5 and 7.0 would be ideal). The soil should be well-drained.

Talk:Order of the Polar Star

message: "After the reorganization of the orders in 1975 the order is only awarded to foreigners and members of the royal family."
I am removing this sentance on 3 count's;
1) Henrik Larsson was awarded the Order of the Polar Star post 1975
2) He is not a member of the Swedish royal family
3) He is Swedish, so is therefore not a 'foreigner'
These 3 counts make the above statment a piece of pish....so delete.
:No, he did not. Henrik Larsson has received the medal of his Majesty the King and an OBE from                                Queen Elisabeth II. There has been no awarding of the Order of the Polar Star to Swedish citizens since 1975.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.242.105.245 (talk) 00:32, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Order of the Red Eagle

message: A couple of questions: 1. Why does it seem like half of the people listed on this page don't even have Wiki articles? It seems like, if you're going to have a comprehensive list of recipients, it should be comprehensive, otherwise the page should focus on people who are otherwise notable enough to already have a presence on Wikipedia.

thread_title:  Lord Canning 

message: The edits from 08 December 2017 stating that Sir François Ashok Petizon was awarded the Order of the Star of India seems suspicious, as it is not listed in: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/honours-list/8231975/New-Year-Honours-List-2011-in-full.html.  Additionally, it would seem very unusual for the British government to award such an honour connected to the British Raj, and as the edit was shortly after the page for George Howard, 13th Earl of Carlisle was modified to stated that Sir François Ashok Petizon was Lord Carlisle's heir, rather than The Hon. Philip Charles Wentworth Howard.

message: I've run into a reference to a British army officer, Lt.-Col. Patrick Dalmahoy McCandlish (1871–1942), of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, having received the "Order of the White Eagle, 5th class" for some reason or other, in addition to his OBE, VC, and DSO.

Talk:Musicality

message: -To have ability to grab onto a feeling, to "hone in"/perfect technical aspects in the craft, this case being music. 
-This can be heard through combination of swing, tempo and dynamics variation all in such way that they can create either a sad or uplifting feeling that other musical people recognize even if only a single note is played repeatedly. Some people are not actually able to recognize (in some cases, any) feel in music based on research done, atleast not without being taught. Shuffle and/or swing is typically the key element in dance music for creating the feel that invokes urge to dance.
-As personal note, it is not only related to music, the "gifted" tend to produce results that stand out from the mediocre in pretty much anything they do - which makes sense if one has ability to "hone in" or perfect a production beyond levels that the non-gifted have.
It is a word that musicians use in place of "talented/gifted" - perhaps because it would be come out as "racist" to recognize that people are different and musicality could be genetic instead of some kind of thing you could learn through lot of work. That's not to say there wouldn't be personal benefit from "fake it till you make it" approach. The radio/tv/youtube is already full of mediocre "talent" so trying to flood them with more doesn't "rock the boat". 
I have come across some recent personality research which suggests there is certain "base personality" that is genetic. "five temperaments" is related but more vague concept because the temperaments can shift due to environmental stressors. The genetic personality research suggests there are actually physical responses that cannot be faked and do not change. Aspect of this research is that there is certain type of personality that is much more sensitive and has more emotions and more emotional. My own conclusion is that this is most likely connected to musicality/"gifted producer" - extreme sensitivity to imperfections and feeling, to be able to feel something and then just improvise either through means of production - such as writing, composing or producing a live improvised performance.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.181.249.156 (talk) 19:28, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: This

message: Basically the complete contents of the "Notes" section was entirely misplaced. This is a page about musicality not a page about what makes a good dancer. Musicality is very important for becoming a good dancer indeed, and the traits of a good dancer listed here are indeed important ones, but none of this serves in any way to get a better grasp of the somewhat nebulous term of musicality

thread_title: Deleting Prime Ministers

message: This article has recently been edited by students as part of their course work for a university course.  As part of the quality metrics for the education program, we would like to determine what level of burden is placed on Wikipedia's editors by student coursework.
If you are an editor of this article who spent time correcting edits to it made by the students, please tell us how much time you spent on cleaning up the article.  Please note that we are asking you to estimate only the negative effects of the students' work.  If the students added good material but you spent time formatting it or making it conform to the manual of style, or copyediting it, then the material added was still a net benefit, and the work you did improved it further.  If on the other hand the students added material that had to be removed, or removed good material which you had to replace, please let us know how much time you had to spend making those corrections. This includes time you may have spent posting to the students' talk pages, or to Wikipedia noticeboards, or working with them on IRC, or any other time you spent which was required to fix problems created by the students' edits. Any work you did as a Wikipedia Ambassador for that student's class should not be counted.
Please rate the amount of time spent as follows:
* 0 -No unproductive work to clean up
* 1 - A few minutes of work needed
* 2 - Between a few minutes and half an hour of work needed
* 3 - Half an hour to an hour of work needed
* 4 - More than an hour of work needed

Talk:Morganna Mode Gone

message: Initially Morganna is the master data gathering AI designed to be the core of Fragment using 8 subprograms to collect emotional data. They are the "black boxes" of autonomous code whose purpose is unknown to CC Corp. Whenever they are removed, Fragment stopped functioning. Designed to be evolving, Morganna can attempt simulate human emotions through an algorithm known as "wavering". Despite evolving and being the core system of the game, Morganna's true purpose was to create the Ultimate AI, by feeding the gathered emotional data to the unborn AI, Aura. 
Somewhere along the way, Morganna resented the fact Aura would make her obsolete when she was born, and deleted her code regarding her maternal feelings. At this point, she is known as Morganna Mode Gone, probably meaning that the maternal Morganna no longer exists.
After the final server reset, Aura is finally born and Morganna Mode Gone resets back to Morganna, which being part of the core game system, stabilizes The World. Mark4011 01:21, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
