Talk:Jyotiḥśāstra

message: These are lists by a crank, mixing legitimate texts with what looks like classic traditional list-padding for extra gravity.  I can't find many of the names in Pingree's survey (Jyotiḥśāstra in J. Gonda (Ed.), A History of Indian Literature).  And all the names have been Hindi-fied.  The good news is that we have a WP:RS, the bad news is that the lists will have to be thoroughly revised. rudra (talk) 04:35, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Classical Texts

message: By one of the authors in the "Modern Texts" section: Vedic astrology is the modern name for an ancient system of astrology known in Sanskrit as "Jyotish". Modern name?  You don't say... rudra (talk) 04:48, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quotable quote 

message: It should be made clear by what criteria a book (or other text) is to be selected as suitable for inclusion in this resource collection. A lot of people wrote and write about the subject in times that are usually referred to as "modern". They have all sorts of backgrounds, education (or lack thereof), purposes, ideologies etc. So differences in style and content will be enormous.
Regarding those I have had a look at myself, B.V.Raman is to my knowledge generally considered the person who was most important for the "modern revival" of Indian astrology, so there can be no question he ought to be mentioned/listed, simply from the point of view of cultural history. K.S.Charak is the best I have seen myself and as a hospital physician (in a position of responsibility) he appeared to write in a sober, science-minded and precise and readable way. On the other hand that uncle Frawley is a missionary with early contacts to one Indian sect cum mission society plus vage affinities to some western esoteric ideas, and it clearly shows in style and content of his writing. If I'd run a project with the rather proud name "encyclopedia" I'd include him under some section on "people active in the field of spreading religious ideas of Indian origin in modern wrapping in (certain circles of) 20th century America/ western society", where he belongs and for people who want to inform themselves about that aspect of contemporary world society; but not under a headline: "resources for studying the topic XY". - Now, that depends on your background and experctations; if you are an esoteric or Indian politicised religious fundamentalist and rather untainted by any western humanities studies, you will perhaps like him and likeminded authors. If your background and taste does more resemble mine, you'd probably wish them to be removed. It is for WP "managers" to decide and make clear what they want, how they wish their project to be received and its reputation to develop over time... / Cheers, -- 147.142.186.54 (talk) 15:59, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Provence wine

message: This article seems more on the B-side than not, but I do have concerns about the lack of a winemaking & viticulture section. Some of the pertinent details are covered in relevant in wine region section but extra opinions on the assessment is welcomed. AgneCheese/Wine 00:16, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Thoughts on assessment

message: I've spent several  hours cleaning  this up. The major problems come from  widespread copying  and pasting  from  source material and poor attempts to  rephrase to  avoid copyvio. The prose was therefore in  the typical  essay style of the journallists in the wines reviews it  was taken from. A lot of it  is still  inappropriate for  an ecyclopedia and contains  journalists' POV. The fact  that  these sources are referenced, does not  mean that  the journalists' own POV should be interpreted as fact.--Kudpung (talk) 01:16, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course there have been numerous edits made by several dozen editors since, but I will note that when I first wrote the large majority of text back in Feb 2008, not a single item was copied or pasted nor were any of the sources wine reviews.

Talk:Hashem Abd al-Rahman

message: I oppose deletion for these reasons.  Firstly, I would add that past  a certain size of town the mayor is inherently notable, there could be an interesting debate about what that size is, but I note that Umm al-Fahm is a town of 45 000.  Also, it is the largest Muslim town and 2nd largest Arab town inside pre-1967 Israel, the unofficial capital of the Arab triangle, so this person is one of the most important Israeli Arabs holding any sort of elected office or political office.

thread_title: Suggestions wanted

message: Overall this is a really good article! I like your writing style and you have effectively broken up your information into paragraphs. You could work on expanding the article a bit to make it longer. I voted and gave it 5 stars for being well written because the wording makes it easy to comprehend. You could probably include some of the negative aspects of community journalism in order to present the piece from two different views. (while remaining neutral towards the issue of course) I also feel that you could add more in regards to the history of community journalism. If you just expand in a few places your article will be perfect! Cerasam (talk) 18:29, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Reconstruction (architecture)

message: The category "Destroyed Landmarks" features some reconstructed buildings, but is a true misnomer with regard to the "resurrected" ones. Robert Schediwy 86.32.215.9 (talk) 05:08, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Category "Destroyed Landmarks"

message: As I understand it, a reconstruction in architecture (as in shipbuilding) is the creation of the original plans from archaeological evidence. A newly constructed building is a replica. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 02:25, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure about that but it may be so. Archaeology isn't my field. I do know that "reconstruction" is used in the sense of rebuilding damaged or destroyed buildings, up to the most extreme form which would be a completely new building built to the original plans (a replica). If the archaeological term can be sourced, I see no reason why it could not also be included in the article.--Yeti Hunter (talk) 13:42, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Scranton City Hall

message: I'll remove the Dunder Miflin banner and paragraph about it.  These banners are all over town and have nothing special to do with City Hall.  While I do not question that there might be a banner in front of city hall, the paragraph is unreferenced.  The need for a reference is only to show that it has anything to do with city hall.

thread_title:  Ground truthing in machine learning 

message: As noted in Talk:Gold standard (test), the term "gold standard" is actually more faithful than "ground truth" with respect to most usage in machine learning and information retrieval.  This is because ML and IR make assumptions about the classification of labeled data (mostly because human classification, which is often itself error-prone, does not scale).  I had to resist "correcting" a recent edit that muddied this point from the ML perspective.  That said, these and related fields of study do not (in my experience) use the term "gold standard," even if it is more appropriate. Adam KatzΔ☎ 20:07, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ground truth vs. Gold standard

replies: text: Where would you be hearing these rumors from? The tracklist is from Amazon. It did used to show the tracklisting for the UK version of Now 27, but those were all older songs from when that was released. These songs listed are newer songs that would fit the US release.  A UK version is normally 2 CDs, this is only 1. --Wolfer68 (talk) 10:58, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

text: The second reply in that discussion says the same thing I did. It's nothing to do with UK's NOW 69 but with UK's NOW 27. When Amazon first added the US version of NOW 27, it listed the track listing of UK's version of NOW 27 from 1994, which is what those comments were talking about. Those comments were posted about a month ago. The track listing now shown for NOW 27 was just added on February 7 or 8. --Wolfer68 (talk) 12:16, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
