Talk:Edge data integration

message: Yes, I believe this article and the article on Core Data Integration should be merged into the main Data Integration article.  They provide valuable information on Data Integration strategies commonly used, but they are essentially just sub-topics of the main topic of Data Integration.
I have worked in the data integration field for the last 10 years as a technical writer, trainer, integration software engineer, and consultant.

Category talk:Detainees of the Guantanamo Bay detention camp

message: Today a wikipedian chose to express their concern that this category has too many subcategories.
But they neglected to say why they thought the number of subcategories was a problem.
I suggested they consider explaining why their concern here.
They are the second person to express a concern about the subcategories.  The first person, in spite of repeated requests, proved unwilling or unable to explain their concerns.
I have played a major role in expanding the wikipedia's coverage of the Guantanamo captives, and the the articles that address issues arising from their detention.  I started the subcategories these two wikipedians have raised concerns about.  They have proven useful to me.  
I told the first guy I was new to starting categories, and I would be very appreciative if he would take the time to offer me the benefit of his experience as to where I was going wrong.  He made a few comments, like that these should really be list articles, not categories.  Well, I have started a bunch of articles, related to these subcategories, like: al Farouq training camp, Casio F91W, allegations that Tablighi Jamaat is tied to terrorism, al Qaida guest house, Faisalabad, and over a dozen others.  
I continue to use these categories to expand the wikipedia's coverage of the captives, and related issues.
One of the points I made to the first wikipedian to raise concerns was that while you and I that earlier fellow, might think some of these subcategories are built around trivial things to be concerned about -- "beneath notice" was his term, IIRC, but those that were offered as justifications for the captives' continued detention, shows that they were not considered trivial by the Guantanamo analysts who compiled the allegations.  In my opinion that makes them notable.
Cheers!  --  Geo Swan 01:58, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Hans Lindberg

message: I doubt his current name is Hans Óttar Lindberg Tómasson. He is registered in Danish and international player lists as Hans Ottar Lindberg, and I think it would be more appropriate to go by that. The Icelandic newspaper article the long name is taken from only says that this is the name he was registered by at his birth, but he switched to Danish citizenship when he was 18 and presumably dropped the Icelandic patronymic then (it would be perceived as his surname in Denmark and thus be impractical - I doubt he registered Tómasson as his surname when he applied for citizenship), he may also have danicized the spelling of Óttar at that occasion, though that is more uncertain. Lindberg is the surname of his Faroese paternal grandparents, who immigrated to Iceland in the mid-1940s, and clearly the family name.--Batmacumba (talk) 10:29, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Basal (phylogenetics)

message: "it has had more time to evolve" - that phrase needs reworking. I don't have the time now, but it needed mentioning.
I think this is a good start.  I came here from the page on Mockingbirds.  Your examples relating humans and plants may make perfect sense to a professional, but this layman's mind has to stretch way too far to place plants and humans on the same clade.  Couldn't you choose a clade within vertebrates, or synapsids or something?  Who's basal in human evolution?  I am merely a bird loving artist who stumbled upon this article--but I feel it's an important bit of info that could be better explicated to the layman.  And, as a luxury, perhaps having links to creatures that are considered basal would be illuminating.Francis Smith (talk) 01:31, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Thank you Kiore (talk) 05:39, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Strictly speaking, it doesn't make sense, since a taxon is either basal or it isn't. Loosely speaking, when applied to large groups, "basal" is often used to mean 'more basal than the great majority of'; in this situation, it does make sense, and this has been noted in the article.

thread_title:  Very Basal 

message: While the term "basal lineage" is often used, this is a loose way of saying the lineage possesses ancestral character(s). Every lineage within a given clade can be traced traced back to the root of the clade, so all of them are equally "basal". Every lineage in biology (with the possible exception of those for viruses) can be traced back to the origin of life. Thus, the term "basal lineage", taken literally, is nonsensical. This is in contrast to the situation with clades, where whether or not a clade is basal within a larger clade depends on its topological position within that clade, independent of any consideration of characters. "Lineage" is also sometimes used loosely to mean "clade". WolfmanSF (talk) 18:36, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

message: The membership list as it stands is deeply flawed. It doesn't cite any sources. It doesn't list any members of the group's "Mark II" lineup (sometimes AKA "The Puddletown Express"; recorded the Strangelands album). The supposed 2000 "restart" date is also spurious, as a release under the "Crazy World" name (Vampire Love) came out in 1997. The entire member list from 2000 on is, as it stands, nonsensical- none of the listed members from 2000 or later (other than Jim Mortimore) are credited on any releases prior to 2014's Zim Zam Zim, and none of them at all are credited with performing on the 2019 release Gypsy Voodoo. None of the musicians credited on releases prior to Zim Zam Zim (Vampire Love, Tantric Lover, Vampire Suite) are listed (other than the aforementioned Mortimore), and none of the musicians credited on Gypsy Voodoo are listed. Z-Star has never been credited on any Crazy World releases at all, and doesn't seem to have been more than a touring or guest performer. Zim Zam Zim's credits list Brown, Mortimore, and Walker as members, but then explicitly list the other musicians performing on the record (including Rejchrtova and Gromniak) as "additional musicians." This is a tangled enough mess that I'm hesitant to try to fix it (especially since I have no experience working with the used timeline format), and I actually doubt that there are reliable sources available for membership or tenures post-1997.
