message: Did some editing: punctuation, capitalization, grammar, made the links look better, made quotes from the article flow smoother in the text, added one link, removed the picture section (there was no picture linked), and combined both "external links" sections into one. I tried to make sure no URLs actually showed: it looks very ugly. If someone thinks I should add more links from conservative blogs, portraying their perspective or statements, I can.

Talk:Butt joint

message: Regarding SilentC's comments here, I do think this article is better than B class. The only thing missing in it is outside references: I can see the article is accurate so I odn't want to add a "needs references" template, but it does need a few notes for where the info comes from. With that added I suspect it would easily pass a Good Article review, and I wonder if it would take much more to get it to Featured Article level... I've never worked on an FA so I don't know.
Looking at WP:WIAGA, all this is missing is number 2. This is very strong in all other points. Erk|Talk -- I like traffic lights -- 04:37, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The references thing is a constant problem for me. Naturally I have read about butt joints (amongst other more interesting topics) in various places. I know they exist, and have even made few ;). I'm aware of the methods for making them and their potential uses, however this is all from my own memory, which is patently not a reliable source. I have a couple of books on joinery, one a very good one by Gary Ragowski called "The Complete Illustrated Guide to Joinery" which discusses various butt joints, but with a focus on how to make them. I guess what I am saying is that this book verfies (or at least I hope it does) what I have written but it wasn't the direct source of the information. So do I reference it so that we get a tick in the box? SilentC 05:23, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I know where you are coming from. References are a pain. However, with Wikipedia it is much easier than with "real" academic work: you can use something that just verifies your info as a reference, like your Ragowski book, rather than having to use a source you actually used as a ref. while writing. And if the reference thing is too much of a pain, it's not like you have to do it, you're a volunteer ;) you can always leave it to someone more concerned with that kind of stuff.

thread_title:  Merge with [[Approximation theory/Proofs]] 

message: I studied approximation theory, decades ago, when programmable calculators were new and compute time expensive.  Today computation power is very cheap and available, and as I address a new problem, it seems that the well-know-problems of poles and "squiggles" (errors) of polynomial approximation renders these as anachronistic toys that should be abandoned.  Certainly we don't need to reduce a complex physical chemistry curves into an 6th degree polynomial so that someone can enter this, tediously, on a calculator. I believe the other commenter is correct; splines have value when  we MUST interpolate from from empirical data, but poly'-curves are anachorisms. ^^  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.165.181.87 (talk) 21:17, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Link? 

message: When a product becomes "discontinued" it is surely not right to delete all references to it that appear in other pages of Wikipedia? User 12think has been doing this today, for example in pages StarOffice, List of Mac software, Office Open XML, List of spreadsheet software and this one about Microsoft Works, which used to cite products such as NeoOffice and Collabora Online but those citations have now been removed by 12think. 
Although those products are now discontinued there are still valid pages about them on Wikipedia. In my opinion those pages - and any citations of them on other pages - should remain as part of IT history. I am minded to undo all such unnecessary deletions but, before doing so, I wish to have the opinions of other users about this issue.

StarOffice: Appended “NeoOffice was also a derivative, but announced that it was no longer active in early 2024. List of Mac software: Appended "discontinued" to OpenOffice.Org and NeoOffice even though the heading says they must be active. Office Open XML: restored and then Appended "discontinued" to NeoOffice.

thread_title:  Westerners invented everything 

message: Hi, . I removed this section for the simple fact that criticism of FGM is generally 1.) Almost always not related to criticism of religion 2.) This is a general article about religious criticism. Not specific criticisms of certain religions. (It much better belongs for articles like criticism of Judaism or criticism of Islam or criticism of Christianity. Rather than an article about the premises of religious faith in general.) Beyond this, none of the sources presently in the article mention religious-oriented criticism surrounding this, just criticism of FGM in general/weighing the aggregate health benefits/downsides of circumcision.
The academic literature overwhelmingly separates FGM and religion. (The present article even states: ) Circumcision section is valid: just not in this article. The overwhelming majority of the world's religious population is not in a tradition that mandates it. (Only Judaism and the Shafi'i Islamic tradition does.) Including FGM/circumcision here would be like this article including criticism of the virgin birth.
Important information has been moved here. Thanks! KlayCax (talk) 03:39, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: You just stated yourself that certain religious groups support FGM. It is also unheard of to be practiced in non-religious or non religion affiliated cultures.

message: The paragraph that states the concept of religion did not exist before the 17th century is followed by a quote that uses the word religion from the 1st century BCE. Can't have it both ways.

Talk:Angora

message: == Very Poor Article ! Many Factual errors!  ==
:I really do wonder who is coming with the phrases which assert that the names of Turkish cities were something else before 1930. Angora is an ancient name for Ankara but it wasn't in use for quite a while before 1930. Same goes with Constantinople and Istanbul. Constantinople was the name used only by westerners, it was not in use by Turks at anytime. And although some Turkish governments changed some place names for political reasons, that was not the case for any of the major cities like, Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa...
: And also how people came up with phrases like : 
::Angora is a vilayet-> No it is not, Ankara is a vilayet!
::Vilayet is city in Ottoman-> No, there is no language called Ottoman, it is Turkish and vilayet means province, not city!
:: Kayseri and Kirsehir are two centers in the vilayet of Angora->No, they are two provinces  (and capital cities of these provinces with the same names) different from Ankara!
:: The only industry in the province is weaving-> Oh come on! Ankara is the capital city, it has 4 million people and some more industry than that!
is beyond me. Did someone copied this down from a 19th or 18th century travel notes?? Wikipedia would have been better without this article.

message: I had been surfing the disambiguation pages in need of clean-up and decided to edit this page, but I forgot to tag it as "in use" and User 129.21.105.77 managed to save their edits before I could.  I have since changed their edits to my own.  Here are my reasons:
* Changed ref to Ankara, since Angora is more than simply an "alternative spelling."  (I also added the historic info to the Ankara page)
** Also changed style of entry to better reflect Wikipedia:MOSDAB  
* I moved Angora wool to the top since I would argue that, at least in the English-speaking world, Angora is more commonly used to refer to the fabric. (I for one had never heard of Ankara referred to as Angora...)
* Removed links to Angora Fire and Angora Lakes since logically a person searching for these two topics would not simply type "Angora" in their search. 
**As per Wikipedia:MOSDAB: Dab pages are non-article pages and are solely intended to allow users to choose among several Wikipedia articles, usually when a user searches for an ambiguous term* Created stub page Tygodnik Angora and re-added link to it on this dab page.
* Finally, given the removed links and the new link for Tygodnik Angora which would have sat on it's own and been the only uncatogorisable (is that a word?) link, I decided to forgo headings all together

thread_title: Introduction

message: Before I edited it this article claimed that the TV series was set in Bristol. After looking through the episodes the name of the boy's school is given as Bernard Oliphaunt Middle School. As far as I know both Bristol and Derbyshire, where the novel is set, use the two-tier system of primary (with separate infant and junior schools in some parts) and secondary schools. In the novel the boys find Aquila on a school trip to the Peak District but in the TV series they are staying with their mothers on the land of a Welsh farmer called Evans and his wife. Then again, it might not be set in any real-life town or county with middle schools though it could have been filmed in the Bristol area. Tk420 (talk) 15:39, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
