Talk:Quark

message: Footnote 1 currently says The main evidence is based on the resonance width of the Z0
boson, which constrains the 4th generation neutrino to have a mass greater than ~45 GeV/c². This would be highly contrasting with the other three generations' neutrinos, whose masses cannot exceed 2 MeV/c². but as far as I can tell in the Standard Model there's no obvious reason why there should be as many generation of quarks as of leptons (though GUTs do predict that). Am I missing something? If not, I propose to remove that footnote as misleading. — A. di M.  18:29, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Anomaly cancelation (TTY) in the standard model pegs the numbers of EW lepton doublets to those of quark doublets (acounting for color triplication).

thread_title:  Video of Gell-Mann explaining the pronunciation and origin of the word quark 

message: What happens with quark structure e.g. of proton + neutron when they bind into deuteron?
We know it has large electric quadrupole moment ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuterium#Magnetic_and_electric_multipoles ), what seems tough to get if thinking about it as just 'pn' (?)
It is explained by adding l=2 angular momentum, but it suggests some dynamics - what exactly? 
Couldn't this quadrupole be obtained by just shifting some quarks instead? (I got such suggestion from soliton particle models) Jarek Duda (talk) 07:07, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: That's another topic that indeed should be covered somewhere, though not here. "General warrant" currently redirects here, but it probably should not. The Wilkes case was about a general arrest warrant; the writ of assistance (the topic of this article) was effectively a general search warrant.

Talk:Columbus Day

message: The line in regards to the Governorship should be specified that Diego Columbus was the Governor that Bartolomé de las Casas witnessed, as it implies that Bartolomé de las Casas was cataloging Christopher Columbus' Governorship and not Diego Columbus'.  It should be specified that this is referring to Diego Columbus or instead state "who observed the region where Christopher Columbus had previously been governor." 
Journalist and media critic Norman Solomon reflects, in Columbus Day: A Clash of Myth and History, that many people choose to hold on to the myths surrounding Columbus. He quotes from the logbook Columbus's initial description of the American Indians: "They do not bear arms, and do not know them, for I showed them a sword, they took it by the edge and cut themselves out of ignorance.... They would make fine servants.... With 50 men we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we want." Solomon states that the most important contemporary documentary evidence is the multi-volume History of the Indies by the Catholic priest Bartolomé de las Casas, who observed the region where Columbus was governor.

Talk:Xōchipilli

message: I reverted the recent assertion added to the opening sentence, a categorical statement that Xochipilli was the patron [deity] of homosexuals and homosexual prostitutes, accompanied by half-a-dozen or more references.
For one thing, a lot of those references given do not actually have much to say about the topic: Benjamin Keen's book says nothing of it, AFAIK Bernal Diaz's acct (either of the two translation versions given) doesn't name xochipilli, and Mendelssohn's book is completely irrelevant. That leaves just sources like Stephen O. Murray and Richard Trexler, who are not Mesoamerican scholars and whose views I doubt are representative of what Mesoamerican scholarship interprets these deity figures to represent and stand for.
For another, as noted above Mesoamerican cultures' construction of gender and sexuality roles is rather different from modern western ones and categories, so one can't simply equate the two. It really would need a more nuanced and carefully researched approach here, with due regard to WP:UNDUE. I'd have no problem with mentioning here what scholars such as Murray and Trexler might have to say abt the topic, but it seems to me that their claims need to be put into the context of coming from another field and research angle altogether, ie not portray or presume that all and standard Mesoam scholarship shares the same interpretation.--cjllw ʘ TALK 08:43, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I added the quote from David Greenberg that directly say this, and the Encylopedia of Queer myth, symbol and spirit reference.
