Talk:Richard Skinner (broadcaster)

message: This is Richard Skinner. You are repeatedly publishing an incorrect date of birth for me. 
I have repeatedly tried to correct this information but you keep reverting to the incorrect generalisation of '1954'. 
My correct date of birth is 26 December 1951. I can provide documentary evidence of this if required.
Please correct this as soon as possible. Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.201.7.227 (talk) 21:03, February 16, 2021 (UTC)

message: Is 'resource' confined to World Wide Web applications? I think by virtue of being the subject of IETF documents, it is applicable to the Internet more generally, no?

Talk:Quechee, Vermont

message: Nyttend,
I appreciate your interest in Quechee and I assume it's one of the places you've visited and thus your interest in our Wiki entry. However, you don't live here or work here and so you don't understand the difficulty our community has in explaining how it fits into the world. A solid Wiki entry with lots of useful external links has provided considerable benefits during the past two years. It was just last week that I got a call asking me why the Wiki page had been eviscerated (the directions is what they were after) and I checked it and found you'd clobbered it in October (presumably when you witnessed our 4 on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 best foliage season).
For example, people have a lot of trouble finding their way to locations in Quechee because most mapping programs return postal delivery locations, and there are none for Quechee, it's just a post office where we all go to get our mail. If I want someone to find my house, I have them "fake" the town and zip code to be White River Jct 05001 and then it works. But it gets worse. White River Jct is also an unincorporated place -- the only official use of the name is by the USPS -- but both are in the town of Hartford. But wait, it gets worse. Hartford is also an unincorporated place in the town of Hartford and it too has a small po-box only postoffice.
So for you to edit out the tip about using 05001, or to eliminate the link to a more thorough-going FAQ about Quechee that is on my blog, strikes me as a mistake. That is perfectly legitimate factual information.
Now, yes, I have read the Wiki guidelines again, and while I can see why we might not want to provide a link to, say, the main competitive golf group in town, or to the principle online discussion group of the community, I fail to understand why we would eliminate the links to the library, or to the local newspapers, or most any of the rest of the items.
I get that you have accumulated a lot of authority within the Wiki world, but I think you've gone overboard in this situation. I want to see the entries largely restored, and if we aren't able to work it out ourselves I will pursue the RFC and mediation options.

thread_title:  Untitled Thread 

message: After some trial and error, I found this tool essential in salvaging what could be salvaged from a crashed Linux LVM (single disk) system. I had a severely damaged filesystem (fs) and yet was able to get decent recovery. The following is an outline of the process:
* Remove the drive to a system where you can access it if as a result of it being the booted device you can't.
* Get a ddrescue copy of the object to be recovered. In my case this was a LVM logical volume containing an ext2 filesystem:
* You can now access this with TestDisk specifying the image copied to reliable media with ddrescue on the command line.
** The partition type is None (in my case because the image object is not a partition)
** Select Analyse.
** Select QuickSearch, but stop it ("S"). It will fail because the image is still not a healthy partition/fs.
** Your fs can be selected in the list and you can navigate to the recoverable item(s) of interest and copy them out.
The unrecoverables will be red in the directory listings and you may be able to recover some of them or parts thereof with the PhotoRec utility from the same author. 
Similar process should work with any system supported by the author.

Talk:Julius and Aaron

message: This article has long claimed that Julius and Aaron are venerated in the Eastern Orthodox Church, without citing a source. The claim was introduced here with the edit summary "added veneration to Eastern Orthodox Church (classified as British Saints)". My brief researches have failed to confirm this.
* The website of the Orthodox Church in America lists St. Julius the Presbyter of Novara, who is a different person, and does not list a St Aaron.
* They are not listed at The Orthodox saints of the ancient church in the British isles and Ireland, although this site appears to be self-published and might not be a citable source.
Eastern Orthodox Church#Mother of God and saints says "All persons currently in heaven are considered to be saints, whether their names are known or not", but this does not justify our saying that Julius and Aaron are venerated in the Eastern Orthodox Church. I will remove the references to the Eastern Orthodox Church. Verbcatcher (talk) 21:48, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Phonecasting

message: Hi.
I was the original submitter of the Phonecasting page.  I saw that an editor marked it as needing "notability".  I have made some changes to the page, to try and provide sources or more information on the term "phonecasting".  As this is my first submit, I'm not exactly sure what the editors were/are/will be looking for, however, I'm trying my best!  I'll be happy to make more edits to the page, if needed.  The term can be vague, and there's no reliable sources on who defined it, per se...it's more of a descriptive term made up my some marketing guy, no doubt.
Thanks
This seems to be a duplicate of the page Phonecast. We should keep one of these.
--Bebaak 02:49, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi, there is still much more that you can add in the English article. Most importantly:
* There Phonecast has been around for decades and was used by some SW and AM stations
* The hi telephone fees in some European countries (eg Germany) prevented a long time the breakthrough for the mass use, as well as the elaborate phone systems prior to using VoIP-based solutions
* Today will be mostly web-based systems such as Asterisk uses that are accessible through the Internet often using SIP addresses
* These systems are also used in parallel live chats made available as an option (eg Phonecaster.de)
* Some vendors specialize in radio stations (eg Phone Caster), other provider specializing in web radio and amateur radio operator (eg Phonepublisher.com) instruments and the deals with podcast offerings via telephone.

message: IMO, Actigraph should be merged into Actigraphy, with Actigraph redirecting to Actigraphy.  Then Actimetry should redirect to Actigraphy as well.

Actigraphy is the process, similar to Polysomnography; polysomnograph redirects to polysomnography.  Explanations / descriptions of the process, its reasons and uses, and the device used all fit nicely within an article entitled Actigraphy. --Hordaland (talk) 23:03, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

What is the controversial part? Is it the date 'seventeenth-century'. Other source I read said mid 1800s which is mid 19th century.
