Talk:Jose

message: There should be two separate articles, and two separate talk pages.  No reason for this page to lead to the other talk page.  Quickmythril (talk) 06:49, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Jose is not José 

message: This is a questionable split.  Most of the names in the list are Filipinos, Spaniards, Puerto Ricans, Cubans.... which presumably are not people with a Hebrew or Aramaic background as the lede of this page suggests.  Both "Jose" and "José" share the same etymological link to "Joseph" and as much as it would lengthen an already long list, there is no reason to keep the two separate. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 22:45, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Talk:List of Digimon Adventure (1999 TV series) episodes

message: The summaries for each episode, I feel, are not detailed enough. I was going to try and make them more detailed without making them too much longer (about 3 to 5 sentences). Also some of the summaries leave out, what I feel, are important things, such as the exact name of a Crest that was found in a particular episode.

Talk:Physical capital

message: I was looking up the definition for "physical capital" because it appears several times in the 2003 World Development Report, however, this wikipedia article really does not illuminate the meaning for me any more (as non-economist), would it be possible for someone who is more familiar with this topic to provide an example of what physical capital is?

Talk:USS Ranger (1777)

message: There exists an illustration of the vessel that would be excellent for this entry, visible at SeacoastNH.com; however, I am unsure if this image is fair game for inclusion.  This image is by Bill Gilkerson, possibly of the late 1990s, probably produced for inclusion in a book of some kind.  I cannot seem to locate another copy of this image elsewhere, except at the now-defunct Ranger Foundation (which was only found through a Google image search).  Huntster 04:12, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

message: The article says USS Ranger was built in New Hampshire, but the box on the right says Maine.  "The History of the American Sailing Navy" by Howard I. Chapelle, Bonanza Books, New York (W. W. Norton) 1949, says Built by James K. Hackett, Portsmouth, NH.  However, "Minstrelsy of Maine" by Fanny Hardy Eckstorm and Mary Winslow Smyth, Houghton Mifflin (Riverside Press Cambridge, Mass.) 1927 has two versions of a ballad about Ranger (though one, for reasons unknown, calls her The Stately Southerner).  A note by the collectors -- probably by Mrs. Smyth -- says Ranger, the first war vessel to fly the Stars and Stripes, was built on Badger's Island, which is in Maine (though across from Portsmouth), and a bronze tablet marks the spot.2604:2000:2907:8700:1C52:20B:CB03:B665 (talk) 15:49, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

thread_title: ??

message: Should be cut out. Transactional Sex takes place in most impoverished places of the world and sexually transmitted diseases run rampant in those places as well. Singling out Sub-Saharan Africa seems a bit lacking in objectivity and subjective singling out of an entire ethnicity.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.109.93.73 (talk) 22:22, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: You have a point that the article is currently unbalanced. The article's sources currently include eight focussing on Africa, so it is hardly surprising that there is a lot of emphasis in the text on Africa. It would make sense to address this problem by expanding the non-African content. Hoefinger's work on Cambodia is cited and could be used as a start to do this. Other sources are available concerning other countries. It does not seem sensible to try and address this problem by deleting well-sourced text which amounts to over half of what is currently a start-class article. - Polly Tunnel (talk) 15:38, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The article fundamentally stigmatises Africans , Unfortunately there are few reports regarding high income country transactional sex , for example sex work in the USA  which 1 million undertake , an edit to that effect was removed for discussing Africa outside the context of Africa , rather than as was intended discussing the examples raised outside of Africa and in a high income country , edits were also submitted referencing research regarding China and India , and were removed why ?

thread_title:  Reference Titles 

message: "Another reason behind this may be due to the brain's natural preference of viewing things from left to right"
I skimmed through the referenced article, and I don't see that it says anything about a "natural preference" for left to right. The article does talk about handedness, which isn't the same thing. Another possibility to consider is reading direction; literature should be reviewed for Necker cube experiments with people who natively read right to left or top to bottom, along with 90°/270° rotations of the cube.
Scott McNay (talk) 16:55, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Left to right is natural? 

message: It's possible to see both aspects and to see the spinning dancer spin both ways (the way I saw it originally, which confused me quite a bit; although the standard common seems to have a flaw that makes one rotation direction physiologically absurd).  The article doesn't indicate that this is a piece of embellishment in Blindsight, or if humans are actually not supposed to be able to do that. John Moser (talk) 05:39, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Prosobranchia

message: I believe that "opistho" means behind, and "proso" in front... am I wrong?--IronChris 04:44, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right. These terms deal with the position of the gills with respect to the heart of the gastropod.  JoJan 09:16, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Ok, so shouldn't the phrase "Prosobranch signifies "gills in front of the heart", this in contrast with opisthobranch: "gills to the right and behind the heart"" be modified? Because technically it doesn't signify exactly that... how about "Prosobranch signifies "gills in front", this in contrast with opisthobranch: "gills behind", alluding to the position of the gills in relation to the heart."? Maybe a mention should be made of the language it comes from too (greek). --IronChris 18:14, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No - The term opisthobranch, when not describing the order, can still be used in a descriptive way, meaning "a gastropod with the gills to the right and behind the heart and having no operculum". This location to the rear results because of detorsion in development. When you look at a dissection of a sea hare (such as Aplysia), you can clearly see that the gill is located at the right side (see also ). Therefore mentioning "to the right and behind the heart" is technically correct, but most authors just mention "gills (or gill) behind the heart".  JoJan 08:40, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, I'm sure it's correct, it's just that the etymology of Opisthobranch doesn't imply "at the right behind the heart" explicitely, that's the meaning given to it subsequently. Not a big deal. --IronChris 14:39, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

message: When I was researching Emms coaching statistics, I noted several discrepencies:
# Statistics from hockeydb.com have Emms coaching until 1965 in Niagara Falls, but omit several seasons in Barrie.
# Service record from eliteprospects.com lists his coaching career as 15 seasons with Barrie, then GM only after that.
# The OHL media guide credits Emms with 15 seasons coaching, but no start or end date. Also, I cannot reproduce the totals in the OHL media guide through any combination of seasons from 1945 to 1965.
# Emms also did not coach on some Sunday, hiring instead his son Paul Emms or Bill Long. I'm unsure if that affects the OHL totals.
# I have other sources that indicate Long as the coach from 1963 onward.
