Template talk:Persian language

message: I think the recent edits are just crowding the template; the Dari and Tajik articles already explain what the dialect in question is called by native speakers and other Persian speakers; Ajam/Ecem is a colloquial term in Kurdish for certain varities of Persian and their speakers, not a separate dialect of Persian recognized by linguists --Jpbrenna 00:34, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I just noticed why User:Tajik made the changes he did - he assumed that the whole section was under the heading Names for the language.  It's not - the section heading is dialects, but I can see where he made the error.  Anyway, thanks for adding the details, but as I said before, they crowd the template.  Just use the commonest English name, navigate to the article, and improve the heading with more information about native names if necessary.--Jpbrenna 00:40, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I changed some of the piped links, which were redirects, so that they will load faster.  I also removed the diacritics from the language names -- they just look pedantic, and a few seconds after the use reads them, he will be at the main article page which will show the native name and   transliteration with diacritics.  Ditto for non-standard English names for the languages -- Tajik instead of Tajiki, etc.  The excess of names was just crowding the template -- again, as soon as the reader clicks the link, he'll learn all about how Persian is sometimes called Farsi in English, and that its older native name is Parsi etc.  --Jpbrenna 01:13, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

message: The term "Persian languages" is not used in credible academic sources and the previous move (in 2007) wasn't based on any academic source or Wikipedia concensus.

Talk:Shivaree

message: I remember as a Child growing up in West Virginia we had a similar custom that everyone called a "Belling". Everyone in the neighborhood would gather together anything we could to make noise including "Cow Bells", pots and pans, trash cans,etc., and at dusk we would stand outside the Newlyweds House and make noise until they came out and gave us Candy. Then the Adults in the Crowd would "Kidnap" the Groom (not the Bride) , and throw him in the River. I had never heard of this custom refered to as a "Shivaree" until I saw it on an Episode of "The Waltons"

Talk:Comparison of web template engines

message: It would be nice if there was some kind of indication of how well maintained the template engine is. For instance, Apache Velocity has not had an update in the past 13 years and has everal vulnerabilities (see https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.velocity/velocity/1.7).
This could be done by adding a column that shows when the last update was if it is no longer actively maintained. For template engines that are actively maintained, it would be too much of a hassle to update this every time if it's not automated, so it would be enough to say "Actively maintained" (maybe with a link to where the latest version can be found). 2001:1C01:3B1E:FE00:59FD:68C5:F95E:ECD2 (talk) 21:26, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Parent material

message: I intend to have a major revision of this article. This is my suggested simple definition:
-----------------
In soil science parent material is one or more geological deposits in which a soil has formed. Parent material is often physically or chemically altered (weathered) due to pedological processes, leading to the formation of soil horizons. In multi-layered soils, horizon boundaries often coincide boundaries between different parent materials.
The parent material forms a natural link between geology and soil science, as its meaning is relatively well understood by both professions.
-----------------
Most of the definitions of geological materials further down are poor and not relevant, as they should be described under their own headings or in the geology section.
What do we think?

Talk:Chrysler A platform

message: 1995 it is. Source of info: actual-vehicle VINs from 1994 and 1995 European-market Saratogas. Running these VINs through DC's build record database reveals them to have been built as Saratogas, not converted from US-market AA-cars. It appears Chrysler International largely stopped advertising the Saratoga after 1993, which is a little bizarre given that they were still making the cars, but isn't too far out of line with US practice: The Spirit and Acclaim were promoted in '89, '90 and '91, and somewhat in '92, but almost not at all in '93, '94 or '95.
