Category talk:Anaheim Angels players

message: Suggestion: Since there are categories for "Los Angeles Angels players", "California Angels players", and "Anaheim Angels players", I believe each category should be restricted to those who played for the team under each separate name. For the Anaheim category, only those who played for the team from 1997 on, when the franchise took the Anaheim name, should be included. Dale Arnett 15:39, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Sallins

message: Actually, I am not so sure about the station being closed. I think it may have just been redeveloped and part of the Kildare Arrow project (i.e. much more service and switch from intercity to commuter). I think I recollect intercity trains stopping there in the 1980s. Am I wrong? I'll see if Johnson's railway atlas can shed any light. zoney ♣ talk 15:49, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Talk:Segregated cycle facilities

message: In it's current version the article has two inline galleries. One in the Segregating cyclists controversy section (five items) and one in the Bikeways that use independent rights-of-way section (12 photos). WP:IG states that One rule of thumb to consider: if, due to its content, such a gallery would only lend itself to a title along the lines of "Gallery" or "Images of [insert article title]", as opposed to a more descriptive title, the gallery should either be revamped or moved to the Commons. From my point of view the two current galleries does very little more than that. The latter gallery basically shows the same, but simply at different locations. The first shows a number of signs and one (relevant) photo of an "ill" parked truck. I don't think that the galleries contribute a lot to neither those sections, which isn't illustrated with one image and therefore I suggest that they are deleted and one image is left in each section. --Heb (talk) 10:56, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point. I've started putting them into proper galleries at least, instead of lists of images some of which don't illustrate the sections. A next step would be to trim down the number of images. WP:IG suggests putting the images into Talk so I'll do that if I remove any. Nubeli (talk) 12:24, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Gelato

message: This article seems to be intended to describe the artisanal (or artisanal-style) ice cream found in Italian gelaterie and its imitations in North America.
Unfortunately, the term is more or less meaningless. In Italy, gelato just means ice cream, of any kind and of any fat content. In the United States, it has no legal definition. It is sometimes claimed that gelato in the United States contains only milk and not cream, but this is false. The market leader in gelato, Talenti, uses cream as well as milk and their Vanilla Gelato contains about 10% fat total, about the same as Breyer's Vanilla Ice Cream.
Using the name gelato in the US does circumvent the legal requirement that ice cream contain at least 10% fat, but there is no requirement at all that gelato not contain 10% fat. --Macrakis (talk) 17:46, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

text: "In Italy, gelato just means ice cream", you're wrong. When we go on holiday, or for work, outside Italy we use the term 'gelato' to indicate the ice cream (e.g., the English ice cream), but in Italy with the word 'gelato' we refer to our gelato, since ice cream (e.g., the English one) isn't sold in the Bel Paese; in addition, if we want to buy a, for example, "Magnum", we say gelato confezionato (. Not Italian gelato confezionato, with the exception of some brands; "Magnum" is Danish, etc.); in this case "gelato" is used to mean 'ice cream'. I know, It's not easy.

thread_title: Very problematic article

message: This article is blatantly factious and Florence-centered. Gelato's origin is still a mystery, there are multiple Italian people accredited to have invented it and many Italian cities claiming its origin, but we only have myths and theories. Moreover, the references about the alleged origin of gelato in Florence are all from Florentine sources, which makes this article far from objective. --Anonymous (talk) 11:11, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

In any case, is there a specific reason why this article should be in American English? JacktheBrown (talk) 22:06, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:John Lambert (general)

message: Encyclopædia Britannica (1911) says:
:On the Restoration he was exempted from danger of life by an address of both Houses to the king, but the next parliament (1662) charged him with high treason. Thenceforward for the rest of his life Lambert remained in custody in Guernsey. He died in 1694.
The more recent http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-9046943
:born autumn 1619, Calton, West Riding, Yorkshire, Eng. died March 1684, St. Nicholas Isle, off Plymouth, Devon
So as other sources listed in the article agree with www.britannica.com it looks as if the 1911 got it wrong. --Philip Baird Shearer 17:37, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I was reading a book called "VIES IMAGINAIRES" authored at 1896 by Marcel Schwob. 
In there is a quote allegedly (by John Aubrey) said or used by general Cambert (instead of Lambert in my translated copy probably by typo). 
After a internet research a found that the quote itself comes from John's Aubrey letter to Anthony Wood dated 15 June 1680. The letter is in start page of aubrey's Lives of eminent men, there is a publication in books.google.com in a collective vol. 
Published in pages 197-201 (the quote is mentioned in page 199).

message: I've been learning my Fourier analysis from Kenneth Howell's _Principals of Fourier Analysis_, Chapman & Hall/ CRC, copyright 2001.  His formulation for the coefficients involves the complex conjugate of the \phi_n in the integral (and his inner products use the same switch; leave the first function alone and multiply by the complex conjugate before integrating).
Did you miss a complex conjugate?

Talk:Mahler measure

message: What is lα supposed to be? Polynomials are functions, not sequences. Reading it as Lα(X), where X is presumably the unit circle, does not work either, as then
:\lim_{\alpha\to\infty}\Vert p\Vert_\alpha=\Vert p\Vert_\infty=\max_{z\in X}|p(z)|,
which is hopelessly different from |a|\prod_{|\alpha_i|\ge1}|\alpha_i|.
And what does If p is an irreducible polynomial with p(0) \ne 0 and M(p) = 1, then p is a cyclotomic polynomial mean? Irreducible over which field? Certainly not the complex numbers. In any case, any polynomial can be  normalized to M(p)=1 just by multiplying it with a suitable constant.  -- EJ 03:45, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I often wondered why the songs of the fourth live side where included anyway - and the encore songs left out.
Especially since the songs weren't from that "three sides live" tour.

I think that although this is listed as a stub (which implies that it can be extended), there is really not much more that can be put into the article.  The contents of the book cannot be described since it is a copyrighted textbook, and barring some published report saying that it is THE definitive logic textbook used by colleges everywhere, or proposes some spectacular theory/reasoning, I find it hard to believe that anything can be added to describe its notability and warrant its own page.--MPW 03:39, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I know that in theory stubs can stay as stubs for a while, but I think in this case since it currently doesn't have anything that warrants its own page and all the information is easily found on the author page, it doesn't need its own one until it actually gets expanded in a significant way.  Or perhaps if you have time you can expand in the discussion, or at least give suggestions as to topics that it would be expanded into (that way you don't have to be so formal or spend as much time) and then I would be able to see your side more easily.--MPW 17:17, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Demographics of Bangladesh

message: As per this edit by User:Pitush Puttar, I would like to conversate about the matter whether it should be added with the reference of an "unauthorized" statement of a minister. The given data solely excludes legal migrants, and the "claims" are controversial.
* According to a report in BBC Bangla, Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju didn't cite any official statistics. According to BBC Bangla, “And from then, the Government of India took for granted that they do not have any accurate data for illegal Bangladeshi immigration in India.” (এবং এরপর থেকে ভারত সরকার স্বীকার করে নিয়েছিল যে ভারতে বাংলাদেশিদের অবৈধ অভিবাসন নিয়ে তাদের কাছে কোন সঠিক তথ্য নেই।)
* The data shown different times by different Indian officials are not accepted by the Government of Bangladesh. However, Bangladesh also has no official data for immigrants in India. Furthermore, the claims by several Indian high officials has created controversy and some of them were "motivatedly exaggerated" (as per Samir Guha Roy of ISI).

Talk:John Duncan Sr.

message: I suggest that the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress is in error in the case of John Duncan, Sr.  While it says that he went to law school at the Cumberland College in Williamsburg, Ky., I find this to be unlikely for two reasons.  Firstly, I do not think that this institution had a law school in 1947.  However, the Cumberland College in Lebanon, Tenn. (now Cumberland University) did at that time, and John Duncan, Jr.'s bio in the same work says that he was born in Lebanon, Tenn., in 1947.  While this is hardly conclusive proof (so far I have resisted the temptation to edit this article further on that basis) I would love it if someone with genuine knowledge in this area would do so.
:I have decided to go on and buck the "Bioguide" on this one.  There is almost no way that John Duncan, Sr. was going to college at the Cumberland College in Williamsburg, Kentucky and that his son just happened to be born, at the same time, in Lebanon, Tennessee, home of the "other" Cumberland College.  I am changing the article on the assumption that the compiler of the "bioguide" biography on John, Sr., just assumed which Cumberland College was meant and assumed wrong; I feel that the article on John, Jr. is less likely to have gotten his place of birth wrong.

message: It is unclear from the references, particularly the ones from the 1950s and 1960s, if Duncan was a special agent as a soldier in the United States Army or as a civilian working for the Department of the Army. A good reference that delineates that would be helpful to clear that up, either one that specifically says his rank in the army, or says he was a civil servant. The July 26, 1953 article "New State Legion Commander, Active in Civic Work, Disavows Political Interest" from The Knoxville News-Sentinel says, "The Army's special agents didn't have ranks like regular soldiers. Mr. Duncan was in the same pay grade as a master sergeant, however." This could mean he was a General Schedule civilian member of the Department of the Army. Semper Fi!
