Talk:DNA nanotechnology

message: Doing the synopsis for the Signpost, I must admit I can't really get past the introduction. Perhaps I lack the context for this, but I must say that an Introduction to DNA nanotechnology article may be a good idea, similar to Introduction to evolution. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:01, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Use of personal pronoun in the introduction 

message: I don't want to disrupt this while it is on the front page but we probably need to review its FA status 
The main problems are
* reference updating: Most of this is sourced from the early to mid 2000s; there is no ref on the science later than 2011.  
* improving source quality: trimming back of reliance on primary sources and there is at least one instance of churnalism -- this ref -- which no FA in Wikipedia should have)
* reduction of hype: this is clearly written by someone who believes strongly in the potential of this technology, but As far as I know there are no products in the market in any field using DNA nanotechnology... this remains just "potential".  This stuff might never be useful for anything more than play (and I mean that in the best sense of the word -- pushing boundaries to see what we can do).  For something to become a product it needs to solve an actual problem that people have, and do so robustly, safely, effectively, and at reasonable cost.

thread_title: Episode List in The Article

message: I want to ask if the synopses for the episodes can be edited DOWN to not include the entire storyline (including the resolution) of each episode. If you look at the way a synopsis is written for an episode of the three seasons prior to this one, you will see that it ONLY gives groundwork details for the cases. As the DVDs for the earlier seasons do not contain any episode information, this is one of the only places to look for it - and when doing so, the synopses are written in a way that they are spoilers for the entire episode.
These all need to be edited/cut down to only provide the groundwork information, and not details such as the final sentencing etc.
Sometimes too much information *IS* a bad thing.

message: This image is tagged correctly.  It's the cover of a comedy CD.
Now, the usage may not have followed guidelines.  (The image is used on two pages to identify elements of the picture.)  But that's not a problem with the tagging or a reason the image should be deleted.  The usage should be adjusted where needed in order to meet the guidelines. -- ChrisB 20:13, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The  tag was also applied correctly.  To use this non-free content, each individual usage needs to be accompanied with a detailed fair-use rationale; the  tag itself notes this.  This image is used thrice, and as such needs three separate rationales explaining why it's necessary to use this copyrighted content in those articles.I think you're saying that the image is improperly applied, and while this is probably ultimately true, it doesn't negate the need for rationales for where it's being used.  Be that as it may, I'm not judging where the image is being used or where it should be used, I'm just noting that the image is lacking required elements.  I've replaced the tag appropriately.If you don't believe that the image should be used where it is, remove it duly and add rationales for any usages you feel are appropriate.  If there are no adequate rationales for using this copyrighted content in the free encyclopedia, the image will be deleted for lacking rationales in due course.  —  pd_THOR | =/\= | 20:44, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Haunted Manor

message: People often omit "the" (definite article) in search subjects. In Wikipedia if you type "haunted manor" and the opera title is "The Haunted Manor", Wikipedia won't find it. I tried. Hence the need for redirections here. Similarly, the full English title needs to be there as a redirection else you'd have to know how to spell the Polish. Similarly for Straszny Dwor (without the accent) else Wikipedia doesn't find that either.
I put the base English language article under the Polish title because Polish is the original language of the opera libretto, and performances of the Polish version of the opera are discussed in English under that title, whereas productions & performances of the English version of the libretto are (reasonably) usually — or at least often — discussed under the English title.
This page (Haunted Manor) was supposed to be a redirect for people interested in Straszny Dwór — perhaps the best loved opera (at least it is one of the two such) by Poland's greatest opera composer. Indeed, Straszny Dwór is very possibly Poland's best loved opera ever. 
What's more, it's one of the operas in the Opera Project. Therefore there's no way it fails to be notable.
The intended redirect code creating the page was made at 2007-05-10T19:39:49 and the "(Requesting speedy deletion)" was added at 2007-05-10T19:40:41 by SquidSK  so I had just 52 seconds to spot that I had pasted the wrong string —  the redirect title instead of the redirection code — before SquidSK steamed in!

thread_title:  "ATP" 

message: While it would be cumbersome to explain the reasons and effects of Co-branding wherever it occurs, could somebody shed some more light on the way that the ATP was renamed Jetstream 61? The improvements which where certainly real and felt by crew and passengers do, in my opinion, not justify the act and did not with other aircraft.
“In my times” and in a former life, the ATP was utterly disliked as a “customer” who needed special treatment, as well as by those who had to handle it in the diverse meanings of the expression. “Our guess” had been that the comparably cool Jetstreams should serve to lift the reputation and market-value of the ATP.
Correct me, by all means, if you know to do it. TIA ꟼsycho ㄈhi¢ken 😭 (talk) 07:47, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Saiyuki Gunlock

message: Currently, this article is given the title of "Saiyuki Gunlock". But I was thinking, shouldn't the full title of "Saiyuki Reload Gunlock" be used for this article? I can understand referring to the series as Saiyuki Gunlock in conversation to avoid confusion (or just to shorten it), but since this article aims to provide accurate information on this ... er, 'season', then wouldn't it make sense to refer to it in the header by its full/original title? Besides, I see no reason to shorten it when even the English distributor, Geneon, has released it under its full/original title.

Talk:Total maximum daily load

message: The history of TMDLs suggested here belies the fact that TMDLs were part of the Clean Water Act from the start. Only after a flurry of litigation in the early-to-mid 1990s did the TMDL program receive much attention. History doesn't really support the claim in the article that validation of the TMDL methodology was provided by a single water quality model. The TMDL process doesn't espouse any single model or even a modeling technique. It simply describes a general framework for achieving water quality standards and beneficial use attainment.

replies: text: Don't know either. I wrote most of the article, mainly based on Kelly's book, so he probably says "denied membership", can't find the book right now, will say more when I do.  Maybe sources differ; maybe the decision was mutual?John Z 02:06, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Kelly says "As an additional precaution, it was also laid down that membership should be dependent upon the approval of the three founding members, a condition which served to keep the refractory Iraqis out." p.329 So he appears to be implying "denying" or that membership would be denied if it were requested, but not excluding that Iraq never asked or wanted to ask. Probably both versions are true;  Iraq wouldn't join a club that didn't want it as a member anyways, so  I'll write something saying that. Good find in the FRUS.John Z 05:02, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

However, as SAC waned FKF became dormant and when there was some revival of the syndicalist project amongst youth, noone seemed very keep to raise the 'parliamentarian' legacy. --Soman 21:01, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:4th Alpini Paratroopers Regiment

message: The Alpini are not made up of infantry and artillery. The Alpini are just mountain infantry and as such belong to the infantry, as the bersaglieri, grenadiers or paras do. The mountain artillery belongs to the artillery (as AAA, armoured or field artillery). For a period of time (WW2), italian mountain artillery was called artiglieria alpina, but even then was not part of the alpini or the infantry in general. Mountain artillery is called artiglieria da montagna. Both mountain artillery and mountain infantry (alpini) form the mountain troops (truppe alpine) and that is why their HQ in Bolzano is called comando truppe alpine and not "Comando Alpini" or something like that.190.56.41.26 21:08, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
