thread_title:  SPAM 

message: There were four edits on the same day (2022-11-15), all made by a user using an IPv6 address. These edits removed two of the emails formerly listed on this page, and changed the text for the link pointing to 419 scam to just that. I wonder why this user decided to make these changes. In my opinion, the 419 scam link, after the edit, has kinda lost its humorous charm.
I'm wanting to see what other Wikipedians think of these edits before I or someone else goes and reverts them. Yoshi128k (talk) 22:07, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Strophoid

message: Before, the article consisted of just, "A curve: r = asin(α − 2θ) / sin(α − θ)". I added the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica article, but the equations weren't scanned accurately. I looked up the equations on Google, but they didn't even seem close, so I removed the commentary. The article could use an expert to look it over. Perhaps someone can figure out what the 1911 EB was talking about. -- Kjkolb 10:37, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Foot of perpendicular 

message: The term strophoid has several meanings depending on the source. Yates, Lockwood and MathWorld (see refs. in article) give a very generalized meaning of the term and use the phrase "right strophoid" for the specific special case used by some, e.g. Springer Enc. of Mathematics and 1911 Encyclopedia Britanica. Yates and Lockwood also use the term "oblique strophoid" to describe a slight generalization of the right strophoid. I think Yates and Lockwood are the more authoritative sources and it's better to have the more general term used in the article (rather than having to invent names like "generalized strophoid") so I'm going to try to change the terminology in the article from what is being used now (basically taken from 1911 EB) to that of Yates and Lockwood. People trying to find "strophoid" in the 1911 EB sense will still find the material in the same article, though perhaps a bit further down, so I don't think the change will confuse people.--RDBury (talk) 04:33, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Template talk:User pi-1

message: The template written as "idaṃ puggalo navakaṃ Pāliya" is not a correct Pali sentence. Because the subject of the sentence "puggalo" is nominative singular musculine, so its demonstrative pronoun "ayam." as well as predicative adjective "navaka" must be in the same form according to case, number and gender. Although "idam." is nominative singular, but the gender is "neuter" which does not agree with the subject.  Also "navakam." can be either accusative singular musculine or nominative singular neuter, which again, does not agree with "puggalo" in either case. Therefore the template should be corrected to "Ayam. puggalo navako pAliyA" or more popular form "Ayam. puggalo navako pAliyam.", where "m." represents anusvAra and "A" represents the 'long a' vowel. (I cannot type diacritics here, so have to use such signs to represent the diacritics.)  Dhammamedhi 11:48, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Here in, it is suggested that Carnatic Wars started because the Mughal rule was dwindelling. The European trading companies saw the oppurtunity to strengthen their control over India. I believe that such a version is  mere an opinion. It can not be called history. I have tried to add to the article by presenting the view of Dodwell of Cambridge school of historians.
