Talk:Beats (music)

replies: text: it has potential for development into a page that outlines the differences betwen, for example, an acid house 'beat' and a hip-hop 'beat'. both are loop-based, but they are very different things. it would probably make a very nice disambig page. --Kaini 03:47, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

text: A "beat" is much more general than a "break" which is a quite specific idea in music (not just hip-hop). These cannot be combined into one article, though it is is possible that the beats article itself is unnecessary.--Bigtimepeace | talk |  contribs 21:45, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

message: This page's name, "Beats (music)" is easily confused with Beat (music). I arrived here expecting something about what a musical beat is, not the whole musical backing up a hip-hop piece. Perhaps a page called "Beats (hip-hop)" would be clearer? Pfly 07:35, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Nautilus Pompilius (band)

message: ...So anyone want to try and expand this article a bit :P I was going to start with a history section. But the question I have is regarding the source. The only good source for this that I know is the (old) official page  but it's in Russian. What is the WP policy on that? Should I just translate the bits and pieces from the official history, and then just add it as a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by PolkovnikKGB (talk • contribs) 
:A source in Russian is OK, because there are enough people on Wikipedia who can verify it. (Me, for example.)
:A word-for-word translation is a problem, even if it's only parts of the original, because it's a copyright violation. If you write something by yourself, based on that source, then it will be OK. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 09:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Sylvester Shyster

message: "Sylvester Shyster may be seen as based upon Jewish sterotypes." (Statement which I just deleted from the last version of this article's second paragraph)
First of all, the spelling is "stereotypes." But who has made the decision that the character "may be seen" this way to begin with?
I speak from the perspective of a Jewish Disney comics writer who quite enjoys using the character. I've certainly never seen him as an anti-Semitic figure myself. Some people confuse the word "shyster" (a crooked lawyer, which this character is) with "Shylock" (an actual ethnic slur in some contexts), but I can't help that.
Sylvester Shyster is a splendidly funny villain, and I'd rather Wikipedia not feature unfounded rumors about him that -- should they become common "knowledge" -- might make it harder for writers to work with the character in the future.

replies: text:  She said "If you look at the make-up of the Christies back then, there were always eight men and two women. There was a short period in 1961 or so when the two women were me and Jackie Sparks, (Randy Sparks’ ex-wife – Randy started the group). I had been singing in a duo with Barry McGuire (before his hit record “Eve of Destruction,”) and we were kind of “discovered” together. We used to sing together on weekends at a Mexican restaurant in Westwood, CA, called the El Toril. I was in the group for a month or two…I did the Vic Damone Show with them. When the Andy Williams Show wanted the group as regulars, they needed real singers. I was an alto. So was Jackie Sparks. They needed a soprano. I was let go, as were two or three of the guys. I think they also needed some people who could read music, too. That was not me. Anyway, I was devastated. I loved the group. They put on an incredibly dynamic show." - https://tracynewman.com/guitar-girl-magazine/ McGuire is listed as joining in 1962, so was Newman a member then, too ? -- Beardo (talk) 14:23, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

message: It's been years since I've read this story, but it seems to me that this article misses the most crucial part of the story.  They are stuck orbiting the dead star, essentially, waiting to die.  They have nothing to do, so they keep returning to this virtual reality to escape their actual reality.  Each time they go into the virtual world, which is a kind of mutually generated world, no one remembers who they actually are until they are back out.  But, as they keep doing this to escape their reality, they start to realize that the Virtual World is becoming increasingly hellish, reflecting the misery of their actual situation.  Needless to say, this is an assertion on the nature of existence, and reincarnation.  But that comment may constitute original research.  ;)  --Jcordone (talk) 03:37, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Needs work 

message: My understanding is that a transducer is used to convert motion into signal whereas a transformer usually does not. Typically a transformer is a static device (say on an electrical pole) that steps voltage up or down depending upon whether it is on the supply side or the receiving side of a distribution network. An RVDT uses the principle of a transformer, but in a variable sense. Actually in a differential variable sense. That's how it senses the change in position of the rotary device, but the primary purpose is not to change the voltage. The primary purpose is to sense the rotary position. 
Here's a reference that calls the RVDT a Rotary Variable Differential Transducer: Aeroservoelastic Testing Of A Sidewall Mounted Free Flying Wind-Tunnel Model
There's been some switching back and forth, and then redundant phraseology. An RVDT is a transducer that uses the principle of a differential transformer in order to work. Is there a parts catalog that lists it primarily as a transformer rather than as a transducer?

thread_title: This stub needs to be updated

message: In one of the sources listed on this page - http://www.janetcharltonshollywood.com/drew-barrymore-has-a-half-brother-on-skid-row/ - John Barrymore himself comes in to correct the record:
Well I am the aforementioned half-brother, and while it’s true that since I moved back to L.A. in 2009 that I haven’t had a mortgage or rental payment, I have not spent a single night on the street, let alone on skid row, I still have a lot of good friends. I didn’t even know where skid row was when this story first appeared, I had to inquire.
This story seemed to start when I was staying at Occupy L.A. late in 2011. While I did have a tent there and spent most nights there for the last 3 weeks of the encampment, I did have a place to live, the same place I’m living now, in Koreatown. This is where I went to bathe while I was staying at Occupy L.A., which I did primarily just to be a witness to history. At that time someone (my sister Drew’s publicist, perhaps?) got this story going; I suppose it was easy to confuse my camping on the lawn of Los Angeles City Hall with living in refrigerator box on skid row. Easy for someone who just wanted to repeat a story without bothering to check a single fact.
I would also like to say that Janet Charlton had my email address, I’ve had the same one (john@barrymore.com) since 1995, and I believe I corresponded with Janet in the late 1990s.
But Janet is not alone in this, the Chicago Sun-Times, a supposedly ‘legitimate’ newspaper ran with the story which included so many bizarre, spurious allegations it must have come from a press release, if not my sister’s then someone else.
By the way, I’m quite easy to find on the internet, just try John Blyth Barrymore or John Barrymore III, anyone who spends more than 2 minutes searching can probably come up with my email address, mentioned above, as well as my phone number. No one bothered to even do a superficial fact check.
Think about that the next time you’re reading “celebrity news.”
If anyone’s interested, I burnt out on programming after 20 years as a contract software developer, but I’m still doing a little computer consulting, acting (check my IMDB page), directing, and running an actors workshop in Los Angeles. For further information see:
