Talk:Harry Daft

message: There is some doubt about the captaincy for the Ireland match on 5 March 1892. www.englandfootballonline.com states:
*Match No. 45, 5 March 1892,  Ireland 0 England 2 - Hockings/Radnedge is silent on the captain, while both the IFFHS and Mourant/Rollin say it was Harry B. Daft.  The F.A. lists Daft as a captain in 1892 and only 1892, and it is settled that Arthur T. B. Dunn was captain in the two other matches England played that year.  We have therefore gone for Daft, but, again, the matter is not free of doubt because Cris Freddi's extensive research has failed to turn up a single contemporaneous record of England's captain for the match and he has questioned whether Daft was in fact the captain.  This is another of the three instances in the 1890's in which England fielded separate sides against Wales and Ireland on the same day.   --Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 06:13, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Gary Punch

message: No Federal intervention against Punch ==
I am surprised to read that Gary Punch had beat former ALP Secretary David Combe for preselection for his seat. I am surprised about it because since David Combe is a former party secretary I would have thought he is someone the party executive would come in aid of. The Federal executive of the ALP has the power to overturn Federal preselections meaning they could have easily overturned Punch's preselection and given it instead to Combe.
Anyone know why there was no intervention to install Combe into the seat.

thread_title:  This should be dedicated to Telex the network 

message: :Telex → Telex (disambiguation) — The communications network (a major network for several decades) is far, far more significant than the other "Telex" pages (a Belgian band, and an uncited article on Vietnamese writing) so "Telex" should be the network, not a dab page. Nearly every incoming link refers to the network. There's a reason for this: everyone over a certain age automatically equates "telex" with the network or sending a telex message. Telex (disambiguation) currently exists only as a redirect with only one edit in its history, so it's save to delete this before the move. Adpete (talk) 02:39, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: FWIW, a Google search on "Telex" yields as its first entry a link to Telex Communications which as the ongoing entity is most likely the primary usage.  There are no hits for the Telex Device or the Telex Network on the first page, but "telex machine" is listed as a "search related to Telex".  Google is not the greatest evidence, but this does suggest that Telex (network) is not the primary usage of Telex. Tom94022 (talk) 16:50, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: FWIW 8 of the 9 currently live US "Telex" trademarks are currently owned by Bosch, the owner of Telex Communications.  The 9th is bakery products.  Further evidence that the primary usage is NOT Telex (network).  Tom94022 (talk) 22:26, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know if the plain google search is skewed to companies or domain names, but google news, books, scholar and images all favour telex messages or machines (i.e. the network) by a large margin. Where the company is used, it's usually qualified like "Telex Corporation". Also, for what it's worth, online Encyclopædia Britannica has an article on the network but not the company.

Talk:Hawkins Electrical Guide

message: This page is a pet project of mine, and I will likely be working on this for months to come. Please add to it, if you have access to the same text. Images are scanned at 600 dpi in 8-bit grayscale, touched up a little to remove dust and printing smudges, and converted to pure black and white by using the Adjust Levels function of the freeware Gimp software.
If you take a look at my Talk page you'll see that I think Wikipedia desperately needs more illustrations, and I've worked to create a bunch of my own handmade images for articles. However, this takes a major amount of work, and so if we can legally use expired copyright content in Wikipedia then it seems much easier to use what is already available through old technical books such as this.
I bought this nine-volume set on ebay for US$100, with the primary intent of scanning the images and using them in various technical articles. The extremely high quality illustrative content of the Hawkins Electrical Guide is of considerable value to the Wikipedia project since this work can be used in so many different articles.

Talk:MASSCOMP

message: Back in the 80's we used them at the Ocean Drilling Program for seismic data collection during site surveys.  Many other US oceanographic institutions were using them for that.  According to the salesman, NASA was replacing all the consoles in Mission Control with Masscomps. I believe NASA went to PCs since then.
I was at NASA when they started using MASSCOMP computers in the Systems Division of the Mission Operations Directorate beginning in about 1984.  There was talk of deploying MASSCOMP workstations to Mission Control and the various back rooms, but then the Challenger disaster happened.  Although Challenger was a tragedy, it gave NASA time to redesign many of their systems and they never followed through on the idea to deploy MASSCOMP workstations.Spikearl (talk) 16:05, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Gilyonim

message: "However R.T. HerfordChristianity in the Talmud, 1907 page 155 identified gilyonim as gospels."
It is not true! Herford himself writes on p. 155, n. 1:
"The word גליון means the unwritten portion of a book, the margin. But, as in modern books, the margins of ancient MSS. were used for annotations ; and it is reasonable to suppose that these annotations would include texts of Scripture, quoted as illustrations. Hence the question would arise whether,
although the corpus of the book was heretical, the marginal citations of Scripture were to be regarded as sacred. Jost (Gsch. d. Jdtums. ii. 40 n.)
says that גליון (giljon) plainly denotes ' evangelion ' in the passage before us. No doubt the Gospels are included amongst the ' Books of the Minim ' ; but I do not think it can be shown that ' giljon ' by itself ever means a Gospel. If that were the case, there would be the less occasion for the
plays on the word ' Aven-giljon ' and * Avon-giljon ' which will be mentioned below (s. p. 162). Friedlander (d. Vorchr. jtid. Gnosticismus, p. 83 fol.)
identifies the ' giljonim ' of the Minim with the Diagramma of the Ophite sect of the Gnostics. This may be correct ; but as the Talmud never gives
any indication of what the ' giljonim ' contained beyond ' memorials,' the guess is hazardous." Александр Порядин (talk) 18:39, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The source for this appears to be the next reference (Pearson, p.19), which says "On  the other hand, subsequent attempts to  interpret all occurrences of  these terms as  references to Jewish Christianity, as is  done by R.  T. Herford,15 fall to  the ground in face of the facts." I imagine someone took this, and replaced "Jewish Christianity" with "Gospels". Pearson references the 1903 text, page 97 and continuing. How would you reconcile Pearson's assertion with the quote you brought, and how would you propose to rephrase the article? Ar2332 (talk) 14:03, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I propose to replace the corresponding sentence with the following: "Even R. T. HerfordChristianity in the Talmud, 1903 p. 155, n. 1. identified the guillonym not as the Gospel, but as «the fields, the unwritten part of the book.» Although he presents them as references to Jewish Christianity."

Any Biography
    * The person has received significant recognized awards or honors.
    * The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field.
"
In that he has been awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal as well as numerous volunteerism awards (unable to accurately cite at this point, hence not including them).  Further to point two he has contributed heavily to three very important very important pieces of academic work in his field of public health policy Unleashing Innovation in Health Systems, Exploring Technological Innovation in Health Systems and Laying the Groundwork for Culture Change: The Legacy of the Primary Health Care Transition Fund.
Further as noted he is a candidate for a major party in an upcoming election.
While perhaps none of the three reasons would stand for notability on their own, I think together they certainly meet, at least a minimum standard, of notability.
Is this completely off base?

:Not completely, I don't think, no.  I think the strongest point is the papers.  Where were they published?

Are these valid references that "Many scholars in their work on Taoism supported this view"? I don't have access to Maspero (1981:211) but Creel (1982:40, which quotes Maspero 1981:211) and Robinet (1987:3-5) are both general discussions of Daoist immortality.
