thread_title:  Relative of John Mercer Johnson 

message: Hi!  I also proposed a DYK for Canada Day ("Canadian Idiot").  I think this one should get priority, though my nomination is actually about an American topic so I don't see why they couldn't both run on the same day.  I did a little MOS cleanup on this article and have a few copyedit notes:
*In the lead,  I'm not sure that's technically correct as pre-Confederation Canada only referred to Ontario and Quebec, and the Province of New Brunswick was not yet a part of Canada.  Could it be rephrased as something like "From the Province of New Brunswick and a Father of Canadian Confederation" or "from the Province of New Brunswick (in what is now Canada) and a Father of Confederation"?
**Canada existed for one year of Johnson's life (Confederation is 1857, he died 1858) so this sentence is technically correct, but not for the majority of his life. I included Canada because most people don't know where New Brunswick is. Maybe we can put the word "Canada" somewhere else in the lede sentence? one suggestion might be "?
*MOS:JRSR suggests to explain in words if the person is not referred to in reliable sources as Jr.  e.g.: "the younger Jackson was elected mayor".
**Changed
* I've got to ask, was this a single performance in which he read poetry while ice skating, or two separate performances?  If the latter case, perhaps "and an ice skating performance".
**The source says it was more than one performance, so I pluralized both. The quote is, "While there he dazzled the public and the members with his poetry presentations and his dazzling ice skating performances." (Copp)
* This is the first mention of Miramichi in the article. It could use some explanatory context or a link to an article on its subject.
**Added "one of the cities in Johnson's Northumberland County constituency."
* I think this literally means that they had all twelve children on that day.  Suggest: "Shirreff with whom he had twelve children." or "Shireff; they had twelve children."  Or perhaps better to break the sentence.  "They had twelve children, six of whom survived into adulthood."
**Added a semi-colon
Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for improving this article for a Canada Day DYK! – Reidgreg (talk) 12:10, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Looking more closely at my edit, which is at the end of the final paragraph of the article's introductory section, there needs to be a more gentle transition, to link the sentence I've added back to the preceding two.

thread_title:  Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 6 March 2024 

message: In the introduction, the genocide is described as "Nazi Germany's 'Final Solution...". The phrasing of genocide in these terms is sensitive, and the suggestion that the Holocaust was indeed a 'solution' is implicit in this sentence. I would suggest that the wording be changed to something like, "Nazi's described this genocide as..." or some such. VelvetCommuter (talk) 14:53, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: The current wording is fine. The quotes show that it is a Nazi phrase, and to me "Jewish Question" implies some kind of solution.

Talk:List of mountain passes

message: While it would be possible to go nuts and list every named saddle between two peaks, this list should confine itself to passes that have some sort of significance, whether as a trade route, tourist access, military strongpoint, etc. Passes with insufficient info for an article longer than one sentence should not make the cut for this list.

thread_title:  Significance for inclusion 

message: I think there should be a list of the locations of the cols of South London as they are important to the topology of the South London area, especially the more urban or suburban areas. I do not think a list with the word "mountain" would be important for this. There are no mountains in England. When I looked up "Col" I found "Moutain pass". 87.194.35.230 08:01, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  What about South London's Cols 

message: Not sure where to put it; it separates the Northern Rockies (Kwadacha/Kechika area) from the Stikine Ranges; it's a divide in the Rocky Mountain Trench, like Canal Flats, and isn't in either.  Summit Lake Pass north of Prince George needs an article, but is on the Nechako Plateau, not on a mountain range (and there's another near Nakusp of the same name); Rose Lake Pass likewise (the divide between the Bulkley and Endako, and like Summit Lake an important prominence col.  I also wanted to add the Begbie Summit on Hwy 97, which crests the Cariboo Plateau, and its cousins on the Merritt-Kamloops and Merritt-Peachland parts of the Coquihalla freeways are on the Thopmson Plateau; I guess I'll make an Interior Plateau section?  Interestingly, though there are mountain ranges within those plateaus, none that I can think of have pass-names in them, other than some around Barkerville I think, in the Quesnel Highland.  Not sure what hte pass-name between Charryville and Fauquier on Hwy 6 is....the pass by Big White has a name, I think; Anarchist Mountain is a region article, not written as a summit, though it functions as a pass (though not a geograhpic one, only a highway summit).

Talk:Under Ash

message: Removed unreferenced mention of 'Some' people. also removed the mention of antisemitic influence in the game. The plot is very against the Zionic occupation of Israel, but there is very little blind hatred (if any) towards the Jewish culture. AntiZionic is not the same as Antisemitic! One is against a culture, the other is opposed to a political power. I am Jewish and Antizionic, does that mean i am a self-hating Jew? No, because i have nothing to do with the atrocities being committed by the Israeli government, and choose to follow the peaceful lifestyle that my religion truly embodies.

replies: text: In what way is this "too POV"? // Liftarn
Sory for editing even I haven't found the game yet,I believe there is a way to get victory in that game just like any others,maybe you missed a nook or cranny,or a certain way.Some amateur games have this "if you don't do it this way you WONT finish it" syndrome.
I've never played Under Ash, but it sounds that Mr Qasmiyya is trying to say that, while it is possible to finish the game, it doesn't win any great victory.  It doesn't have the "happy ending" that many other games have, no Palestinian Arab/binational state is founded and the Israeli occupation continues.  Compare the ending to Freedom Fighters, where the object is to fight a fictional Soviet occupation of New York City.  In that game, the player character can, on his own, kill enough Soviet soldiers to make the Soviet Union withdraw.  Afkar Media does not intend to inspire people to fight to solve their problems.

message: In the Infobox, the "Platform(s)" field specifies "PC".  I think that the "Platform(s)" field should specify a value or values from the " Supported platforms" section of the  Vgclegend template.  For example, if Under Ash only runs on MS-DOS, then Under Ash's Infobox should specify "DOS" in the "Platform(s)" field.

thread_title:  Should the graph be expanded? 

message: As of 2023 sep, the first paragraph reads: "Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years. Moore's law is an observation and projection of a historical trend. Rather than a law of physics, it is an empirical relationship linked to gains from experience in production."
The last word is the key to understanding what's meant. This should appear earlier in the paragraph for good, quick comprehension.
As it stands, one gets the impression that the transistors in your device are breeding or something. This whole idea is about what's going on in MANUFACTURING. 184.96.226.106 (talk) 14:39, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The paper he wrote wasn't even primarily about transistors. The word is only mentioned twice. More emphasis should be put on what he actually was saying, and less on what people think he was saying since "Moore's law" has been misused a lot since he wrote on the topic in the sixties.

thread_title:  note number 15 requires password !!!! :( 

message: "A year later came Netscape 7.0, based on the Mozilla 1.0 core. This was released a few days after a Netscape Communicator 4.8 maintenance release, illustrating how the efforts of the Netscape developers were still being divided."
My understanding is that the later Netscape Communicator releases, including Netscape Communicator 4.8, were produced not by Netscape Communications, but by Sun Microsystems, and that Netscape just released the work that Sun did.
According to SillyDog701's Netscape Browser Archive: 
:"[T]he ongoing 4.7x work is being done by iPlanet to fix bugs demanded by corporate clients with whom iPlanet has support contracts. Netscape gets to release those versions to end users as a by-product of the iPlanet work."
Because this infers that Netscape developers didn't do work on Communicator 4.8, I'm going to remove the sentence about Communicator 4.8 from the article. 青い(Aoi) 09:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Excellent article  

message: I recently learned about a variant on hexadecimal called sexadecimal from Dave's Garage on YouTube. It uses the symbols K S N J F L instead of the usual A B C D E F for the digits 10–15. Sexadecimal redirects to Hexadecimal, but the former isn't really discussed on the latter. The unusual K S N J F L sequence is also mentioned on the pages for ORDVAC AND BRLESC, but without much discussion. More info — or perhaps even a new section on this page — would be nice. Dave's Garage managed to fill 22 minutes on this obscure topic. Elert (talk) 21:43, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Outer darkness

message: Sorry to whoever added it, but this was removed for being both OR and incorrect: 
:"Translated literally, the Greek text of Matthew reads "into the darkness, the outer", with a definite article before both the noun and the adjective. For this reason, the New International Version translates this text as "outside, into the darkness".
Not true ἐκβληθήσονται εἰς τὸ σκότος τὸ ἐξώτερον / ἐκβάλετε εἰς τὸ σκότος τὸ ἐξώτερον / εἰς τὸ σκότος τὸ ἐξώτερον completely standard Greek for "outer adj. darkness def. noun" in all 3 cases.
This was removed for being both OR 
:The best interpretation of the biblical phraseology "outer darkness" carries with it echoes of the darkness of the plagues of Egypt and the covenant curses promised to Israel in the Mosaic Covenant. These foreshadow the darkness that covers the land at the death of Christ. It is clearly a picture of Divine justice. God the Father sends the covenant curses on God the Son at Calvary. Jesus, by dying for those who will believe in Him, endures the wrath of God that unconverted sinners will get for all eternity. It is for this reason that hell is called "the outer darkness." In Hell men will be cast away from the light of the presence of God. The language of "outer darkness" is metaphorical according to this interpretation.
:Another interpretation is that outer darkness refers to a literal place away from all physical light. When God creates the new heavens and the new earth, there will be no sun because God Himself will be the light. Those who are in outer darkness will be so far away from God that the physical light of God will not reach them. They will be in a place so far from God that it is utterly dark. In the same way, a black hole is so far from the light of sun and stars that it is completely dark. This place of outer darkness will be filled with the sound of weeping and the grinding of teeth, sounds made by those suffering intense pain and torture. 
:If we consider the length of our universe, plus the millions of galaxies, and the whole of all physical space that exists, we can imagine a place so far from our earth, so removed from light, out in the farthest reaches of space, which is called "outer darkness."

Talk:Sanation

message: Sanacja, as far as I am concerned was never nationalitic party. It was not even formalize party, and for sure the slogan ("one...") is nonsense.
As far as I am concerned, Pilsudski after his activity in PPS, never found another political party. 
The official party of Sanacja period, was called OZON.
Please provide proved for your thesis 
AM
*Sanacja was a socialist party with a nationalist background. It was never purely nationalist, true, but like most parties in European countries during the interwar period it utilized nationalistic slogans for public support. If you question the information on Sanacja, or its founder Jozef Pilsudski, you can refer to such books as "Europe" by Norman Davis, "Bitter Glory" by Watt, or "Drugiej Rzeczypospolitej poczatki" by Andrzej Garlicki. There are also some references on Yahoo! and on Google, but they are less informative. As for the parties current status, there is no real way that I can prove to you that we exist which would be satisfactory to everyone on here. I did not realize that adding a reference to our small party would generate so much vocalization for censorship. Sanacja 02:10, 22 Nov 2003 (UTC)
