Talk:List of semiconductor IP core vendors

message: Look, wikipedia is not f'ing geocities.  If you're worried that people are finding your website, linking to it on wikipedia is not the answer.  A co-worker (in sales) added the link to my company which I do not support.  This article is without merit, notability, or purpose beyond just linking to commercial vendors.

Bonzesaunders 19:29, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: This is very clearly an error. Mars Bonfire coined the term in the song "Born To Be Wild" in 1968, when he wrote the line "I like smoke & lightning, heavy metal thunder..." in the lyrics. From that point forward every musician in the country, my band included, started using "heavy" and "heavy metal" to describe particularly powerful music, and it grew exponentially from there. The first Iron Butterfly album from 1968 - "Heavy" - contributed to the birth of this terminology as well, but it was Mars Bonfire who literally coined the term 'heavy metal' 2 years before this supposed Humble Pie review. If Saunders used it to describe "As Safe As Yesterday Is" he simply applied a term he had undoubtedly heard coming out of John Kay's mouth via 10 million radios for the previous 2 years. 75.20.213.5 (talk) 04:32, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, actually William Burroughs was apparently the first to employ the term outside its chemical use (in a non-musical context in 1962).  Bob Seger & The Last Heard released "Heavy Music" in 1967, a very heavy song... it's true, "Heavy" was an appellation applied to a number of bands, e.g., Cream, Iron Butterfly, and The Jeff Beck Group's early releases, none of which fall into the "heavy metal" genre.  As for the relevance of Steppenwolf and Mars Bonfire's excellent song, it is not heavy metal, and the lyric refers to the "heavy metal thunder" of a powerful automobile as opposed to that of a musical genre.  If "every musician in the country" were employing the phrase, surely it would have worked its way into the idiom long before 1970... instead, "downer rock" was being used to label the archetypal heavy metal band, Black Sabbath.  E.g., Lester Bangs refers to the "downer rock" epithet three times in an article on Black Sabbath in Creem (June 1972) but never uses the term "heavy metal".

Talk:Chadds Ford Township, Pennsylvania

message: An anon has been adding "Fred Rick Dunaway" as the founder without any reference.  I've looked for references for the founder of Chadds Ford - either the township or the village - and haven't found one in any source.  I'm sure somebody, somewhere would call John Chadd the founder, but I haven't found even that.  Of course the anon just needs to add a ref, but I don't think he can do it.  More likely it is just some semi-vandalism, somebody adding his own or a friend's name.
The is some ORish work you can do though Thomas Holmes map (1686 or 1687) shows several landowners in the area - it is the only area with landowners that touches the Brandywine.  I see the following names: Daniel Smith, P. Richards, John(?) Jones, P. Ducks, Henry Barnard, W. Brainton, Edw. Baly, and a couple of Harrises.  No Dunaways though.  Find a ref!.

Talk:Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing

message: This page should have a lot more info about the controversial history of this org, and its relationship with the Deaf community. So far, I have been unable to find any indication a single leader of it has been deaf. By all measures, it is an organization of hearing people pushing Deaf people to conform to an oralist lifestyle, not exactly an advocacy group. If there is anything uncontroversial it does (ex, lawsuits demanding captions in videos) it would be worth noting, but so far it doesn't seem like that.--RespectCE (talk) 12:07, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Bimodal bilingualism

message: How would the community feel if a section was added in the Bimodal bilingualism page about sign print bilingualism? While bimodal bilingualism is applied primarily to spoken language, literacy is an additional aspect of the bilingual condition that is poorly accounted for in Wikipedia and is a growing topic of research amongst signed language linguists (such as Chamberlain and Mayberry). If consensus is that bimodal bilingualism is not the appropriate forum for sign print bilingualism, what does the community feel is?   Vanberg (talk) 20:27, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I only just saw that this was here. I also see that you've added the section to the article - very nice work! If you are interested in contributing more in these areas, could I persuade you to take a look at the Applied Linguistics Task Force, or at WikiProject Deaf? We could definitely do with more knowledgeable contributors. All the best — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 11:36, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Sign print bilingualism

message: Why is "Deaf" consistently capitalized as if it were a proper noun?  Is this political?  It certainly isn't standard.69.244.155.82 (talk) 00:40, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I noticed this too. Shenme (talk) 23:21, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

text: Amongst Deaf scholars, there is a distinction between people who are physically deaf (as in they cannot hear) and people who are culturally Deaf (as in they are a part of Deaf culture). The two are not interchangeable and are actually quite different. For example 90% of Children of deaf adults are hearing, but they grow up in Deaf culture, communicating in a signed language, telling jokes, and interacting with deaf people. Wugapodes (talk) 08:26, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: 'Deaf' capitalization?

message: When referring to non-hearing impaired bimodal bilinguals, does this refer to hearing people? And if so, why not take out the label of impairment?
"While non-hearing-impaired bimodal bilinguals showed less parietal activation than deaf signers when asked to use only sign language, those same bimodal bilinguals demonstrated greater left parietal activation than did monolinguals." 
In addition, when it says "those same bimodal bilinguals" is it referring to the hearing bimodal bilinguals, the deaf bimodal bilinguals, or both?

Talk:Pike square

message: I believe that stating that the Pike Square was developed by the Swiss Confederacy would be forgetting a little bit of history. It would be more accurate to call it a adaptation of the Macedonian Phalanx developed by Philip of Macedon. Although the Phalanx is, by definition, a formation that is wider than it is deep (as opposed to a infantry square) it shares the same basic elements. The Pike Square is simply a more mobile and fluid formation, being a square.

thread_title:  Untitled 

message: Most famous battles, especially the early ones state very large Gewalthaufen, ofen 5-12000 strong.
Most Gewalthaufen are built of multiple 'Fähnlein' (banners) of men. The smallest Fähnlein mention i have found was indeed 100, but it had very little evidence to support it, mostly it seems to be 200-1000 men. This mostly denotes the group in which they are recruited and paid, not fielded. The fielded units are absolutely huge.
Morat, Grandson, Nancy, all show very large (8000+) units, in Guinegate the Two pikeblocks even encompass large cavalry formations.
The ten rank square seems very weird to me, is there any source
 for that? explicit use of pikemen often talks about thinner ranks (Machiavelli, Charles the Bold, but even the use at Bouvines taalks about three ranks of pike in a cricle encompassing a cavalry unit all the way back in 1215AD)
Swiss Gewalthaufen in Wedges (as opposed to squares) are mentioned in the sources about the main Burgundian wars battles.
many depictions show equal numbers of Halbardiers and pikemen, and often very large formations with many banners display1ed, suggesting again collections of 'Fähnlein' to make a 'Gewalthaufen'
explicit numbers we have from the 1555 'kriegsordnung' where many deployments are d1iscussed in great detail, but many pikeblocks are thousands and encompass various other units in the hollow square. 91.137.22.26 (talk) 15:10, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Fourier-transform spectroscopy

message: As noted in the Fellgett advantage article, this statement:
The Fellgett advantage, also known as the multiplex principle, states that when obtaining a spectrum when measurement noise is dominated by detector noise (which is independent of the power of radiation incident on the detector), a multiplex spectrometer such as a Fourier transform spectrometer will produce a relative improvement in signal-to-noise ratio, compared to an equivalent scanning monochromator, of the order of the square root of m, where m is the number of sample points comprising the spectrum. 
is wrong in my opinion. The improvement is a factor m = sqrt(m)*sqrt(m), and only one sqrt(m) is lost when moving to shot-noise dominated sources. Scummos (talk) 09:38, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  SNR 

message: This article is very poor and even wrong in places.
# Introduction is not good, as already noted
# The primary domain in the Michelson interferometer is distance (difference in the distance light travels in the two arms). Only when the mirror moves at constant velocity can it be considered to be time. In far infrared FTIR the mirror is moved by a stepper motor. The Fourier co-domain of distance is wavenumber (e.g. cm-1) not frequency. 
# The use of the term coherence is misleading as the light source is not a source of coherent radiation
# No mention of the Connes advantage
# No mention of the fast Fourier transform algorithm
# No mention of FT mass spectrometer
# Resolving power of the Michelson interferometer not adequately discussed. In fact Michelson attempted to resolve lines such as Hα in the Balmer series
I don't feel that I have enough expertice to re-write the article, but a re-write is definitely needed.
