Talk:Point Arena Light

message: Its a great lighthouse, so it needs pictures. I started the article so some of my information may not be correct. --Digon3 02:28, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've reappraised the article from "Stub" class to "B" class. The article is much improved after your efforts, but could still be better. It would be nice for the article to broken into sections for readability, although I can't think of what those sections would be besides "History". It would also be good to have some discussion of the purpose of the lighthouse relative to the surrounding area; is there a harbor nearby, or a shipping lane, or what? Once again, good job.

text: Another thing to mention would be when the lens was replaced and some information about the replacement lens (in the text itself, not in the infobox). Mike Dillon 01:43, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

message: "At some point, Theravada Buddhism was subsumed by Mahayana Buddhism."
What is the source for this?  
Surely this is backwards?  Mahayana may have been brought by Nanzhao, but after their departure Theravada must have come to dominate as it does today?

Talk:Francesco Zantedeschi

message: This article, the one on Michael Faraday and similar websites which mirror Wikipedia claim that Faraday's discovery of electromagnetic induction "may have been" anticipated by the other scientist. It is easy to find Faraday's original writings, and detailed books about them by Tyndall and others, but not so easy to find reliable sources about Zantedeschi. The claim of his priority should be removed unless sources such as articles in peer-reviewed journals and books on the history of physics can provide substantiation of the claim that Zantedeschi's claimed experiments whith magnets and coils anticipated Faraday's. Every legitimate 19th century electrical discovery has a number of claimants who are said to have done something similar earlier, but with little or no documentation. Edison 20:50, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with the above 100%.  I would even go so far as to say that this brief article should be recast to indicate that the whole claim that Zantedeschi discovered electromagnetic induction is bogus.  The claim is not debatable, but rather bogus since no citations are included to the primary literature or to studies by reputable scholars.  Is the best that can be cited a nearly 100-year old reference book?  A lot of history-of-science work has been published over the past 100 years.  If serious, verifiable claims have been made for Zantedeschi, then perhaps someone can add them to this article. -- Astrochemist 13:46, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

An Internet search in Italian brings up very few results: most consist of the exact line that is used on wikipedia, quoted ad verbatim ("On occasion he was referred to as 'the Italian Marshall' for his fierce defense of laissez-faire") and, outside of WP itself, never from years before 2010, which made me suspect it originates from a single, and possibly unreliable/anedoctal source.Daydreamers (talk) 19:41, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Gérald Godin

message: The following was added by user Tkondaks
Comments Godin made later in life, however, suggested that he supported terrorism. In 1988 on the joint Public Broadcasting Service/National Film Board production Canada: True North Mr. Godin is filmed saying: “Only bombs, in fact, were the ideal communication process to convince the English that we were after something important.”
This is a logical fallacy. The comments of Godin do not, in fact, suggest that he supported terrorism. Gérald Godin was only expressing a view that was common at the time, that whatever we may think of the FLQ's use of violence (be for or against it), it is following the group's actions that what many Quebecers had been saying for many many years was taken seriously by people in the circles of power in Ottawa and Quebec City. That is a common thesis based on the observation of the series of political events of the time and is perfectly legitimate. Whatever people may think of the thesis, it remains that there is nothing is his comment suggesting that he supported terrorism. So this paragraph should be removed. -- Mathieugp 22:44, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Absolutely agree. Chladni plates belong near/with drumskin oscillations and fourier series and bessel functions and sturm louville etc. The awkward part is the weird boundary condition around the edge which, if i recall well, is the vanishing of the 4th space derivative.

replies: text: Sorry, first of all I thought I would change the name of the section as it is a bit more clear this way. I know that the edit you made did a sorting for the names. However, this is actually an ongoing discussion in the Eritrean and Ethiopian biography pages. People from these countries do not have last names. Typically people are indexed by their family name first and given name second. The convention in these countries however is quite the opposite. First you are indexed by your first name, then by your second and third...and so on and so forth. As you would understand, someone looking up Mahmoud would not look up Sherifo, but rather Mahmoud, then Ahmed then Sherifo... --Merhawie 17:47, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm having some problems with Newton's Bucket argument--this book I'm reading uses it as evidence for absolute motion, but I have a very simple explanation for it which doesn't require absolute motion. My idea is based on thinking of the bucket and the water as made up of particles--which of course they would be--and considering "rotation" to be just a macroscopic view of translational motion of the particles. It makes perfect sense to me, but in several centuries it seems no scientist has posed that interpretation, so I think I must be wrong in some way. I don't know how, though.
