Talk:Genyornis

message: As the human arrival in Australia is more than 40,000 yrs ago, the fact that Genyornis disappeared in a short period of time is quite absurd, as it disappeared no less than 10-15,000 yrs later. It cannot be a proof of blitzkrieg and hardly a over-exploitation (along with 10,000 yr co-extincence?). Wikipedians should take a BETTER look to this issue, instead to parrot only the 'blitzkrieg' apologysts, already weakened by the virtual 'extermination' of the 'clovis-first' theory' (and so bye bye also to N.America blitzkrieg). Here it's a interesting debate that would worth more attenction: http://www.abc.net.au/science/future/theses/theses1.htm   S.M.71 (talk) 19:43, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Cariboo Gold Rush

message: Once I figure out a good basemap, there'll be a map of the goldfields area; for now I guess I might transplant the image on the Cariboo Wagon Road page to here, as it at least shows were Barkerville is.  I'm hoping to come up with a good early-period Interior map showing all the rushes and early ranches, and the complexity of the Cariboo goldfield towns as a region seems like it should be an "inset"; similarly for the Fraser Canyon Rush hopefully I can find an old image naming all the "bars" and the various towns of the period.  Antler, Bullion, Richfield, Alexandria, and all the rest need context because of the article's text, and also most of them should have stubs/articles one day.  This is just notes to myself for later; if someone with good Cariboo maps that are public-domain, or who knows the area and likes to draw maps, reads this let me know and let's collaborate.  Ditto with Omineca, Big Bend, Fraser, Boundary, etc.Skookum1 05:02, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Dance film

message: both articles dance film and videodance appear to discuss the same thing. Paul foord (talk) 06:39, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge with videodance

message: Hello Paul Foord!
I think that it's not a simply merging, since dance film is subjected to the feature length films involving dance, and videodance is something like an audiovisual content. It's the same thing to merge Film into Video clip. Just take a look at Cinema to notice how expanded might be this universe... I also believe dance film and videodance are autonomous, it represents multiple appropriation about audiovisual technologies. Better would be to rename the central article or just bring the videodance to dance film.

thread_title:  Proposed merge with [[Videodance]] 

message: If the term Videodance is taken to mean any recording of a dance work, then Dance Film becomes a sub-section of Videodance, as well as a genre of Film. Film itself being a medium in the decline of its technical dominance over newer means of recording and replaying motion. Videodance can be considered the recorded dance itself and not a particular storage and/or retrieval system. The content will continue to be accessed in emerging formats on advancing devices. 
There is a page containing extended links covering the genre; Dance in film. The current content contained on Dance film is limited and somewhat specific and can easily be incorporated into another, more appropriate section. 
I propose I will merge the content contained under Dance Film to either (as appropriate, your feedback welcome) the Videodance page or possibly the Dance in Film page and redirect the Dance Film page to Dance in Film.

The Wrigley company owned most of the properties in Catalina Island, 26 miles from the Ports of L.A./Long Beach, and no coincidence the Wrigleys along with the O'Malleys, and Del Webb and Gene Autry liked the idea of introducting major league baseball in California when it became possible by the arrival of commercial aviation during WWII (1940s).  71.102.26.168 (talk) 14:03, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:XHDTV-TDT

message: Odd choice of ITU call sign for a station with no HDTV or digital television broadcasts? --66.102.80.212 (talk) 03:17, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  HDTV? 

message: It appears that despite basically being in the San Diego-Tijuana market, XHDTV-TV may still be operating in analog on channel 49 (in addition to the digital broadcasts on channel 47 it has provided the past few years). This document  apparently says that while the Tijuana stations ended analog broadcasting in 2013, XHDTV is slated to do so in 2014! (This might be because technically it's a Tecate station. While many of the cities transitioning this year appear to be doing so on May 29, it looks like Tecate, i.e. XHDTV, is in the same boat as the Mexicali stations and will have to wait until November 26 to turn off the analog transmitter.) Further, the January 31, 2014 list of Mexican TV stations  shows both XHDTV-TV and XHDTV-TDT; the Tijuana stations only have their TDTs (as Mexico calls its digital television stations) shown. (For what it's worth, the FCC's public notice about Entravision filing to renew its permit to provide XHDTV-TV's programming continues to mention both the analog and digital facilities as if nothing happened.) It also seems that when the Tijuana stations shut down analog signals in May 2013 (only to return after two days because it happened in the midst of an election season; they flipped the switch for good that July), XHDTV continued its analog channel 49 broadcasts as usual. All this seems to suggest that XHDTV is not digital-only just yet, and the article should reflect this… and that means perhaps the article should be moved back to XHDTV-TV as well? --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 02:34, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

message: There is no WP article for the company "Communicacion Xersa". Perhaps there should be, but until there is, I do not think it is useful to pipelink that company name to the WP article Company, as user  has done. 
Someone clicking on the wikilink here will expect to be taken to an article providing more information about this company. Instead the link goes to an article about "Companies" in general. This is worse than non-useful; it is a waste of the reader's time. 
I am therefore changing references to Communicacion Xersa to redlinks in the hopes that someone will create that article. In the meantime I think pipelinking it to Company is flatly absurd. And it is not done elsewhere on Wikipedia.

thread_title:  Location of Knotts Berry Farm 

message: Removed the claim that the Calico restoration was Knott's inspiration for Knott's Berry Farm.  Knott purchased Calico in 1952 (or '51 by some sources); the construction of a "ghost town" at Knott's Berry Farm began a decade earlier.  Knott spent parts of his childhood in dying Calico, and that is as likely an inspiration for the Knott's Berry Farm atmosphere as for his wish to restore Calico. That said, this article is about Yermo... I tried to integrate the info, to suggest Calico's importance to Yermo, but it still seems unbalanced. Richigi (talk) 03:23, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
