thread_title: Dedication and invocation

message: Caveat lector: This is a worked quotation: the Christocentric "AD" was iterated to the inclusive non-partisan "CE"; the hybridized non-standard development of the former scholastic standard Wylie transcription system capitalizing enunciated syllables/phonemes and backgrounding non-vocalized etymological roots employed by Germano was iterated to the Extended Wylie Transcription System (EWTS) favoured by Wikipedia and English peer-review literature; and metatext/hypertext embellishment and augmentation maximizing the interactive digital medium from the print media source was employed in contravention of Wikipedia guidelines that favour replication of a direct quotation with felicity.

thread_title:  Missing info 

message: This article is written from a devotional/canon perspective that does not fit wikipedia's standards of neutral/academic tone. I.E. constant quotations around "death" and insistence on referring to Longchenpa's parinirvana, having a laudatory tone, etc. 
As a Nyingmapa I may be inclined to believe this myself, but on wikipedia we had better speak in lay terms. The quotations also convey some self-importance and in my opinion, seem obnoxious.

Talk:Luo dialect

message: Could we move "Luo language" to Dholuo, so as not to confuse with other Luo variants in Sudan, Uganda, DR Congo and Ethiopia. There is/was even a Luo language in Nigera. Example: Okot p'Bitek article says he wrote in Luo, which is correct. He did however use Acholi (a luo language) not Kenyan Luo language (Dholuo) which his article is linked to. 
The "Luo language" page could be used for Luo family of languages.
:Luo languages already covers the broader Luo family of languages. However, to avoid confusion, I think it is a good idea indeed to move this particular article to Dholuo language. As for the Nigerian variant (and other non-Nilo-Saharan languages called 'Luo', like a nearly extinct language of Cameroon), that's just a matter of using Disambiguation when they have articles. — mark ✎ 07:16, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Dholuo language template

message: Is it really "pejorative" (i.e. intended to belittle), or is this a more recent judgement by anti-colonials? 82.28.153.207 (talk) 14:51, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It was pejorative in the original Swahili, "a term of reproach" used by the Bantus south of Winam Gulf for the people to the North who they had vanquished from their territory (Hobley 1903). It means "those who kneel". In English, the word is purely geographical but for the Joluo who understand it was (is?) pejorative. The sense predates colonialism and this should probably be better explained. The current lead makes it sound almost like it was used pejoratively by colonials which isn't attested. -- Lestadii27 (talk) 15:58, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  "pejorative Colonial term"? 

message: I believe the samples included on this article describe the related Jur Luwo language of South Sudan. There is no source provided so they may have been included in haste by an uncritical native speaker of Jur Luwo. If someone can confirm this, I will move it. 
And as a separate point, Dholou is one of the better described Nilotic languages with a standard register and a developing literary tradition. Although it is unequivocally a dialect of Southern Luo, the language is by far the most preponderant (8. million speakers). It is also formally classified as its own language, as a standard variety of the Southern Luo dialect chain which also includes Acholi and Lango. If somebody wants to make this recognised there's certainly a case for it. Perhaps dialect is what is preferred but I doubt it. -- Lestadii27 (talk) 02:54, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Talk:American College of Gastroenterology

message: This is a POV article and needs to be wikified.  A few comments:
*"Sworn enemy of the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA)" -- That is a pretty bold statement.  Cite sources to back it up or remove it. 
*"Its members participate in jet-setting around the world under the guise of academic medecine." (sic)  -- This is a rather inflamitory statement and again, unless you can cite a reliable source This should be removed.
*"a chosen few of the top GI doctors throughout the United States have had the honor of leading the college in an ethical, academic, administrative and spiritual manner towards better doctoring." -- Now I'm just confused, you attack them in the previous paragraph, and now you appear to be praising them?  I'm not advocating a POV skew here, but it appears the author isn't even sure which side they are on.
*"The college's first female President was Christina Surawicz, M.D." -- Why is this relevent? Were they the first Gastroenterological to have a woman president?  If you are only going to make mention of the current president and the first female president, at least include some context as to why it is pertinant.
* You should start your Article with the name in bold.  E.g. American College of Gastroenterology is a society founded in 1932 that serves to advance the scientific study and medical practice of diseases...
I don't know anything about ACG, or I'd just clean this up myself.  Please fix your article.Isotope23 17:42, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Costco

message: How come the Shanghai one gets to keep a full date accurate to the nearest day, whereas New Zealand only takes accuracy to the nearest month? There are sufficient sources that suggest September 28th 2022 being the New Zealand Time day at which the first New Zealand Costco opened. And furthermore, I am inclined that consistency of dates is necessary, if that is what I believe.

thread_title:  September 28, 2022, and dates like that 

message: I'm challenging this edit on May 14, 2023 which added a new sentence before an existing citation which is not actually supported by that citation, then inserted a citation to a source which may not be acceptable under WP:RS. 
I previously added the second citation (which was already in the article) to support the preceding sentence for the proposition that the first Costco store opened on September 15, 1983 in Seattle.  
The anon IP inserted a sentence before that existing citation to make it look like as if the cited article states that Costco stands for CostCompany (the article does not actually say that), then inserted the first citation before that, which links to a site which appears to be a small weblog. That first source cites no sources for its speculative claim that Costco stands for CostCompany.   
I just checked several major research databases including ProQuest and Gale General OneFile (the current brand name of the old Gale InfoTrac system). Both databases include extensive news coverage from the 1980s of the early growth of Price Club and Costco. None of those articles mention that Costco was a contraction of CostCompany.  Indeed, ProQuest has no mention of that term whatsoever, and InfoTrac has only four mentions, all of which are from 2020 onward, are clearly typos (i.e., corrupted article transmissions), and have nothing to do with Costco. 
If anyone can supply a citation to an actual verifiable story from the 1980s (that is, verifiable on a news database or against news microfilm) in which one of the Costco founders actually said that the name stands for CostCompany, I'd be happy to stand corrected. But for now, I'm pulling that assertion and restoring the previous version of that paragraph as it stood on May 14, 2023. Coolcaesar (talk) 23:31, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

message: Would not a better structure 2 have double bonds from carbons 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 and 5-6 ?
I would read the drawing in a way which is proposed by the above question. T.vanschaik (talk) 20:24, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

message: The article seems somewhat contradictory, to me.  Paragraph two says, "[The name 'benzyne'] is open for criticism because it implies a triple bond which would be a special case of triple bonds, so a better name is didehydrobenzene."  I'm not sure what "implies a triple bond which would be a special case of triple bonds" means (can anyone rephrase this into something comprehensible?) but sentence seems to me to be saying that we shouldn't call it "benzyne" because "-yne" suggests a triple bond that isn't there.  However, the rest of that paragraph and the following one repeatedly calls the substance "benzyne" and talks about its triple bond.Dricherby (talk) 01:45, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  content vanished 

message: It is well accepted that only 1,2-didehydrobenzene can be called benzyne, implying a triple bond between two consecutive carbon atoms. The other two isomers SHOULD NEVER be called m-benzyne and p-benzyne, there is no possible structure with a triple bond. IUPAC (and common sense) recommends the names 1,3- and 1,4-didehydrobenzene for these intermediates.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daniblanco (talk • contribs) 13:31, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
