Talk:Joseph Raz

message: The Biography section reads as rather too hagiographic: "Raz studied at Balliol College, Oxford and was awarded the DPhil in 1967 by the shortest route possible, skipping the usual sequence of BCL, MPhil and then the DPhil.
He was appointed Fellow at Balliol. Raz's presence has now made it a magnet for legal scholars."
Rather than revising it myself, I encourage others to comment. But I would observe that it was not at all unusual, at that time, to go straight from BA (the standard undergraduate degree in law, or any other discipline) straight to a DPhil. Rather  than being precocious, I would suggest that graduating in 1967 (at 28) is actually unusally late for that time. Secondly, the reference to Raz's presence being a magnet for legal scholars ignores the "magnetic" attraction of other fellows there.Ncox 18:28, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Constitutional Democratic Party

message: The name "kadet" suggests they had (ridiculous) military pretensions.  Might it be an English-language misunderstanding of a Russian word KD-ets   (plural KD-tsy), "member of the KD"? If so, "KD" (plural "KDs") might be a better translation. Hcunn (talk) 05:51, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Capitoline Venus

message: I have restored the illustration and text relating to the Campo Iemini Venus, which is of the same type as the Capitoline Venus, to this page, in order to offer the Wikipedia reader the opportunity of direct comparison, which ought not to be denied. An encyclopedic entry discusses all the examples of the Capitoline Venus type on one page, in contrast to dictionary-style entries on every individual piece of sculpture or fragment. Needless to say, individual examples may have their own entries, if there is sufficient information to warrant them. --Wetman 18:36, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'ld say there's enough for a separate Iemini one, and that can then be linked from here for comparison.  If it was an article entitled 'the Capitoline Venus type', then it'ld be valid to have both in full - as it is, 'Capitoline Venus' suggests the specific artefact held at the Capitoline Museum, not the type itself. I'm mainly trying to avoid the kind of mess that Venus de Medici got into a while ago, where it had about 3 separate Cnidian-type ones mixed up in it.

thread_title: Include Iemini?

message: Is the Aphrodite of Menophantos truly an example of the Capitoline Venus? The hairdress is very different from the Capitoline, BM and Louvre examples. In his catalogue of the 'Praxiteles' exhibition currently held at the Louvre, Alain Pasquier distinguishes the Capitoline Venus from the Aphrodite of Troad, whose type is mentioned by the inscription by Menophantos.

Talk:Matrix encryption

message: I think this page has no value and should therefore be deleted. The so-called matrix encryption described here is very similar to the Hill cipher. The only difference is that the Hill cipher uses modular arithmetic while this thing here does not. Both ciphers are very weak. They can trivially be broken using with a known plaintext attack. The Hill cipher is only notable, because it is a classical cipher and thus may have some historical interest. 62.203.245.208 18:36, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, it doesn't seem like that cipher is correct... 0 multiplied by anything should equal 0 even in a matrix. I think. (ReshenKusaga 19:33, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

text: The point is that this article is uneccessary, badly written and incorrect. The article about the Hill cipher already describes an encryption scheme using matrices, contains a better description and gives proper credit. The section "security" is completely wrong. It is not necessary to know the secret key to decrypt a message, since the scheme is insecure. Therefore it would be appropriate to just remove this page and redirect "matrix encryption" to "Hill cipher". 85.2.14.109 10:52, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bell Educational Trust

message: I am a newbie but my feeling is that this article is not from a NPOV.  It has been written by the company that operates the organisation that the article is about.  Does Wikipedia allow advertising? At the very least, phrases like "some of the most expert", "thriving" and "prestigious" have no place in an objective encyclopedia: I believe Wikipedia calls these "peacock terms"!  More generally, the whole article reads like a piece of publicity material. Pangapilot 18:39, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello there,
I've recently removed this link:
*http://www.statmethods.net/advgraphs/correlograms.html
From the list of external links.  The reason is that the wikipedia article is talking about " a correlogram, also known as an autocorrelation plot".  Where as the link is talking about corrgrams (even that the author of the page calls is "correlograms").  Corrgrams, as are explained here: 
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.19.1268&rep=rep1&type=pdf
Give an exploratory displays for correlation matrices.  These are different entities then correlograms...

Talk:Function creep

message: The "Function Creep" Wikipedia page should be deleted because it fails to follow Wikipedia Style Guidelines, and is a narrower definition of the subject, which relies on subjective definitions of sinister and malicious applications of technology, rather than alterations over time from original intended purpose.
Obviously this is a stupid dispute. "Function" and "Functionality" are both nouns. Function refers more to overall utility, while functionality refers to the utility of specific qualities of the object. This is splitting hairs. Who invented the telephone ? Alexander Graham Bell or Elisha Gray ? Well ... A.G.B. got to the patent office first ... that is his patron did. Nonetheless, the Function Creep purveyor has a blog about the subject, which tracks contemporary examples of technology becoming sinister from innocuous origins. While the purveyors of Functionality Creep seem to indicate a more broad definition, to wit: "Functionality creep is what occurs when an item, process, or procedure designed for a specific purpose ends up serving another purpose for which it was not intended." The purveyors of Functionality Creep clearly are indicating that, good or bad, malicious or innocuous, the definition transcends any moral judgment. The purveyor of Function Creep is solely focused on sinister applications of technology, which is narrower than what the purveyors of Functionality Creep intend. Besides, judging by the irrational vitriol included in the Function Creep Wikipedia page, and it's total lack of attention to Wikipedia style guidelines, the Function Creep Wikipedia page should be deleted. This user should be required to create an account and follow Wikipedia style guidelines. This identical posting will be pasted to the Functionality Creep Talk Page.

 At the Earth's equator, it is the point on the ecliptic which is directly overhead from the observer; as the observer moves north or south from the Equator, 
This cannot be correct because the ecliptic does not usually have a point overhead at the equator. The celestial equator does. Only when the overhead point is an equinox point does the ecliptic have a point overhead at the equator. At other times it passes north or south as does the sun when it is not an equinox.
