thread_title:  Statue of Edward Thring 

message: COPIED Straight over from my addition to Talk at Headmasters Conference here:
The Conference dates from 1869 when Edward Thring, Headmaster of Uppingham, asked sixty to seventy of his fellow headmasters to meet at his house to consider the formation of a "School Society and Annual Conference". Fourteen accepted the invitation, and twelve were present for the whole of the initial meeting:
Not so.  The Conference was the idea of Mitchinson of Canterbury.  He organized the first meeting of headmasters, where 25 odd met at The Freemasons' Tavern on 02 March  1869 to respond to the danger of state interference following the Taunton Commission of the previous year.  Thring was unenthusiastic and nearly didn't even attend.  With the second meeting he became thrilled enough to suggest the old blokes met annually and then offered the hospitality of Uppingham over Christmas.  The poor turnout for the Feast of Christmas had a number of reasons, such as some preferring to spend Xmas with their families, cost, and Thring being an old bore.

message: As prompted by user Ebyabe for discussion. 
The image currently posted in the article (Messier image, busy) isn't quite how the character was portrayed during the actual TV series. Not to mention, that image is only slightly worse since the suit is showing his tie and shirt underneath. The image has a bad background and has Rose's arm in it, as well.
The image doesn't necessarily have to be the one I have chosen (Cleaner image, not busy), but the image up right now calls for replacement. gapogapa (talk) 23:17, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Talk:HITS algorithm

message: "It is executed at query time, and not at indexing time, with the associated hit on performance that accompanies query-time processing"
The algorithm can also be carried out in a transient manner like Google. Is this a difference at all? (unsigned comment by User:59.95.4.160 2007-05-03T08:24:09)
Perhaps the article isn't clear.  PageRank is a query-independent calculation over the entire crawl which can be performed in batch mode.  The ranking of results for a particular query is a function of the page's PageRank (which is independent of the query) and various query-dependent measures such as TFIDF.  HITS is performed after a set of pages has been selected using TFIDF or whatever, and works on the link structure within that set, calculating the "authority" and "hub" score relative to the query; something that is an authority for baseball is unlikely to be an authority for fettuccine. You could of course run HITS on the whole crawl, or PageRank on a subset, but that is not how they are designed to be used. --Macrakis 13:14, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

On the history page you'll see that I've changed Cancún back to Cancun, with a brief explanation. Here in Cancun, we generally use Cancún in Spanish and Cancun in English. I'd have to do a lot research to find out why, but it may have something to do with the fact that English-language type faces available in the early days here did not have accented characters, or the operators did not know how to access them. The Spanish is not really correct either. In Spanish, the accent usually falls on the second syllable. In the case of a two-syllable word, you would only use an accent to indicate that the stress falls on the first syllable, as in López.
One of the early maps of the island labels it Cancu-en. There's also a site in Guatemala called Cancu-en. Cancu-en refers to a snake totem, usually identified with Kukulcan or Quetzalcoatl (the Plumed Serpent). The romanization of Mayan words is not very well regularized (to use another barbarism), but it is common to use an apostrophe to indicate a kind of glottal stop. I would speculate that some Yucatecan or Mexican Mayanist wrote the name as Cancu'en, which was turned into Cancún by someone at the predecessor of Fonatur, the Mexican government tourism development fund that created Cancun.
This is discussed in mind-numbing detail in my book, Cancun User's Guide in a chapter called "A Brief History of Ekab." I should put this explanation on the main Cancun page, I guess, and maybe someday I will. Meanwhile, I think that the accent should be left off here. --Jules Siegel 23:14, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:RFC reform

message: Basically, the point is for the community to decide what a user-RFC "is", and then to change the user RFC instructions to reflect that. If a user-RFC is the last step before arbitration and banishment and should only be used for hopeless editors who should be expelled from wikipedia, then the instructions should reflect that, adn the name should be changed to something that reflects this attitude ("Public hearing" is my suggestion). 
If user-RFC's are intended to be used for editors who make contributions but violate policy doing it, and a user-RFC is a way to get the user to change their behaviour, then the instructions should clarify that a user-RFC is intended for that purpose, and that a user-RFC is NOT a method of last resort for banishing unrepentant editors.
