Talk:Willis Carrier

message: : He is considered to be at least partially responsible for the economic boom of the American Southwest as his invention meant that people were able to move into areas previously considered uninhabitable in the summer months.
Because:
* This is just a vague claim with no substantiation.
* It implies a racial bias because we all know now that the real inventor was Frederick McKinley Jones a black man, but like almost everything in the USA it was an invention claimed by a white man. Wat? Frederick McKinley Jones invented refrigeration you racist

message: It is written here that he died of cancer.

thread_title:  Inaccurate 

message: I understand that the old lead image was removed due to legal concerns, but I have doubts that the new image is accurate. While it is CC licensed, it comes from DeviantArt user MarcusBurns1977, who likes to recreate images of Cold War era firearms. While some of these are reasonably accurate, like the OTS-21 (compare his recreation vs. an actual photograph), some are highly inaccurate, like the GM6Lynx (recreation vs. actual photos). There is absolutely no reason to believe that this image is a truthful depiction of the nuclear briefcase, considering that this artist has almost certainly never seen one and has a weak track record for accuracy anyways. As such, I'll remove the image. InvisibleUp (talk) 06:08, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: District of Columbia voting rights →  – This article is only about voting for federal offices - Congress, President, and Vice President. It does not cover local government, so needs a better title to distinguish it from District of Columbia home rule. I nominate "District of Columbia federal voting rights" as the most minimal change I could think of to do this. But I'm not sure it's the clearest title, and others may have better ideas? "District of Columbia federal representation" is also a possibility, which also seems to focus on the inability to vote for Congress rather than voting rights issues generally (which include controversies over access, eligibility, etc.). -- Beland (talk) 00:53, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Leones de Ponce (basketball)

message: I just finished reading your essay on the history of the Ponce Leones basketball team. As a former member of the team (1979-1980), I could not help but laugh at those players you felt warranted mention in this article. Chemba Lanuaza???? What a stiff!!! And Papote Agosto and Papirito Leon?? These guys you consider reknowned?? What about the person who their arena is named after, Mr. Pachin Vicens himself? He was only the greatest point guard in Puerto Rican history. And his nephew, Michael Vicens, who made a name for himself playing at Boston University? Then there's Joe Hatton, whose son Bobby Joe now plays on the National team. There are others: Angel "Conejo" Garcia, Cesar Bocachica Sr.(how can you mention his son and not him?), Richie Hernandez, Josean Baez, et al. None of those players you mention could hold a candle next to these guys, much less compete with them.
If you're going to make the effort to create an information source such as this, you'd be doing all your readers a better service by doing some extra homework and knowing more about your subject matter. 
Pedro Acevedo
Westbury, NY
:Even though I'm not the author of the article... as a resident of Ponce, and therefore a fan of the team since my childhood (I live two blocks away from the Auditorium) I agree with you on most of your case. However, your mention of Papote Agosto stands out to me, as I consider him to be a great player in his time and a focal part of what was then known as "Los Cuatro Jinetes del Apocalipsis" (with Toñito, Bobby, and Charlie.) Also, since I agree with you about Pachín, and I also consider the lack of mentioning his name in the article to be a crass mistake, I was trying to come up with some facts about him on the net, but (sadly!) I couldn't find any. Anyway, since I just came up to this article, I will try to work with it and improve its quality. I already added the logo and cleaned some links and added others, to make the article more readable. Anyway, feel free to leave here or in my Talk Page any suggestions for the article. Thanks!

It is unlikely that Shailvahana is of Andhra origin. Shalivahana was Satavahana king with official Prakrit language. Satavahana capital was at Junnar near Pune in Maharashtra.
Present day "Andhra" state got it's name from these kings (region where Satavahana rule).

Talk:Siege of Vicksburg

message: This text is in the Aftermath: "Vicksburg was the last major Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River; therefore, capturing it completed the second part of the Northern strategy, the Anaconda Plan. The successful ending of the Vicksburg campaign significantly degraded the ability of the Confederacy to maintain its war effort. This action, combined with the surrender of Port Hudson to Maj. Gen. Nathaniel P. Banks on July 9, yielded command of the Mississippi River to the Union forces, who would hold it for the rest of the conflict.
The Confederate surrender on July 4, 1863 is sometimes considered, when combined with Gen. Robert E. Lee's July 3rd defeat at Gettysburg by Maj. Gen. George Meade, the turning point of the war. It cut off the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas from the rest of the Confederate States, effectively splitting the Confederacy in two for the duration of the war. The Union victory also permanently severed communication between the Trans-Mississippi Department and the balance of the Confederacy."

Mark's comments above at Talk:Afar language are correct, this really should be split into "Afar (ethnicity)" and "Afar Region."  (For that matter, is there an Afar Region or Province in Eritrea? That's another article.) So yes, for the purposes of an "Afar (ethnicity)" article, it would be great to use a map showing their distribution in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Djibouti (though I've seen them much further away from the Afar Region, in Sodere). -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 16:27, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

I have another question along the lines of the male/female question. I rent a home as does a neighbor. The landlord planted a Nashi pear (Asian pear) tree in front of each of our houses 3 years ago. My tree, though still very small (under 3m high), is bearing copious fruit, too much to bear without breaking limbs, so the fruit had to be thinned. The neighbor's, while close to the same size, has no fruit at all. What might be the reason? --Shyland 14:24, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Edit - am inserting these new sections as blanks for inspiration.
What about fruit pollination of vines -- kiwifruit e.g. or shrubs -- blueberries e.g. The means are similar, why do we need fruit trees as independent article - especially when we list pineapple - a bromeliad shrub, and bananas - i.d.'d as both tree and shrub - as tropical fruit examples.
