message: If the PC Convertible was released in 1986, it's not the first IBM computer to use the 3.5" floppy disk. The IBM JX, while not seeing a world-wide release, even had dual 3.5" floppy drives already in 1984. 80.187.100.92 (talk) 11:57, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

That is not right. In May 1989 IBM announced the IBM Model P70 (named "Personal System/55 Model 5545T" in Japan), followed by IBM Model P75 in Novenber 1990 and L40SX in 1991. - So written in the book "ThinkPad A Different Shade of Blue". --91.12.107.160 (talk) 22:03, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Assassins (disambiguation)

message: I'm working on the assassin page, and there's no reason for there to be a page in plural, too.  It basically lists a very very truncated version of the same.  It should be deleted and redirected to assassin. Wally 04:16, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)

message: Please see (and contribute at) Talk:Hashshashin#Change the name of the article? for a discussion of a possible re-targetting of the Assassins redirect (which currently points to Assassination) to the 'Assassin' disambiguation page. I've just been working through 'what links here' for Assassins, and the vast majority of the links to it were not for assassination, but rather to the musical, film, or sect. That indicates to me that the redirect ought not to point at Assassination, since it's usually the wrong thing. Noel (talk) 02:37, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Fx-7400g plus

message: * Calculator models? I don't know... I feel like having a stub on every calculator is not useful - better to have an article that describes the history of the development of the calculator, or even, if we must, one articel that lists all calculators and an article for particularly notable ones. Mark Richards 23:40, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem isn't that we'd run out of space, but that each one would be a stub (as this one is). A list, with occasional articles about particularly interesting ones, would be fine, but this one is not that interesting. Dozens of articles each saying "This was a calculator that was a variant of another calculator" doesn't tell you anything, but a well structured articele about the development of them might, if anyone was interested in doing more than simply listing the fact that it exists. Mark Richards 00:15, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: That, and we have to judge labor concerns here as well. If it can be agreed that SOMEONE is going to do it - and I think, reasonably, it can - then that someone who does do it will more likely be doing that just so it's done, and not be working on an article that is more important, such as Assassin (shameless plug). The precedent is rather staggering; do we really want open season to have work diverted from every project so that every dumpster, toaster and lawn chair model has its own article? Space may be unlimited, but manpower is not, and we have entire countries whose history, culture and politics are sketchy. Unless the calculator has an army, it can wait, methinks. Wally 06:42, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Not really a legit argument. The nutbar guy who has this, um, thing about a particular calculator is either going to write about it or write about nothing. We're not going to get him to do an article on the influence of Greek fisheries on the rise of  the Dianthian pseudoaristocracy no matter what. I can appreciate keeping stubs in line, but that's a problem in itself, and one, along with a workable index, Wiki needs to address. Denni 22:20, 2004 Mar 27 (UTC)
* Delete.  Agree with Mark Richards: keep only the significant/notable models.  There isn't a need for an article for every calculator.  ⇒ whkoh [talk] 09:22, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)
*Rename to Casio Calculators and make it a section there.  A list of all the calculators by a manufacturer would be of use.  The article is pretty small.  Eventually with a bunch of casio calculators there would even be reason for analysis on the line.  At least put the name Casio in the article so searches on "Casio" would pick it up.

Talk:Origins of the American Civil War (4/4)

message: Some questions/issues:
#"conflict, rather than compromise, depended on a certain set of historical conditions at a certain time".  Does this mean that conflict is an exceptional case, which arises only in certain conditions?  Or that whether there is conflict or compromise depends on the conditions?
#"there was a gradual redirection of wheat, corn, and other staples of Western produce toward the Northeast".   Where had they gone before?
#"Noting that Southern plantation interests in the Senate had killed the Homestead Bill of 1852, free soil newspapers in the West often promulgated the dubious claim that the high prices of land sold by the government had been the main cause of the depression."   Is there a connection between the southern plantation interests and the high prices of land?  If so, what is it?
#"Although much of the West - the focal point of sectional tensions - was unfit for cotton cultivation, Southern slaveholding interests were still encircled to a greater extent than ever".  Why although?  Were they not encircled by free states because slaves weren't so useful in the West?

Talk:Norah Lange

message: I did not attempt to translate the titles El Rumbo de la Rosa and Estimados congéneres. The former I can't think how to render in English: The Pomp of the Rose seems excessive, but I believe that in Argentine Spanish that is roughly what it would mean (I understand that it would mean something else entirely in Central American Spanish). The latter I simply don't understand, nor do I know anything about the work in question.
Otherwise, I think this is a solid start on an article. -- Jmabel 04:06, 29 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Roll On, Columbia, Roll On

message: I moved this page to "Roll on Columbia" because it seems to be the most common version of the title found in official-type sources. However, I am now not completely sure of this. If someone has the actual score of this, with the actual printed title, it would very much help.

Talk:Edmond de Goncourt

message: I don't believe that the prix goncourt should be described as "the most prestigious." "Prestigious" is a subjective term. As such it would be like saying "people like flowers" or "Stalin was not a nice guy." No doubt both statements are facts, but neither should be included in wikipedia articles.

I don't want to sound like an ass or anything, but isn't this comment not really appropriate on this page? Shouldn't it warrant a seperate page? Or is it simply vanity? Even the link doesn't work.
