thread_title:  Andy Scott 

message: * This source
can be used for general article expansion but in particular it seems to say that the British Museum's 'Southbroom Hoard' might (?) have been a misnomer. It places a separate 1699 coin find at "land belonging to the owner of Southbroom House" and then places the statuary at "the Green". As long as that's near/within Southbroom or the old manor called "Southbroom", that's fine. Otherwise the name might've stuck because Mulgrave and Moll mixed up their Roman finds. — LlywelynII 01:11, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Willmer Broadnax

message: Not sure if this is a stub or not -- it's now the most complete account on the web, as far as I can tell.  It is the only one which mentions the fact that Broadnax was a woman, though this is discussed in Heilbut's essay.  Once you know, it's blindingly obvious from his pictures and his singing.
I've referred to him as "he" throughout, since that was obviously his preference.
I wish I knew more about this topic -- Heilbut doesn't even give the date of death.  If anyone has more info, that'd be great.

thread_title: Untitled

message: I'm not sure the liner notes from a 1992 specialty album qualify as a WP:RS.  Mostly because a thorough search of the web, which turns up a few biographies of Broadnax, turns up absolutely nothing about being female.  It almost sounds like the liner notes were a joke.  Can we come up with a secondary source to back it up? -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 01:50, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The liner notes aren't a joke.  They're by Anthony Heilbut, probably the most respected gospel music scholar in the world.  He repeats his statement in another set of liner notes he wrote (for the album "When Gospel Was Gospel" I believe, released in the last couple of years)  Heilbut's a much more reliable source than anything you're likely to find about Broadnax on the Web -- not least because classic gospel music info on the web is pretty lame.  Besides Heilbut, there's a good deal of circumstantial evidence to support the claim as well.  If you look at his picture (see sources) it's quite obvious.  Also, the confusion over his name strongly suggests that he was originally named "Wilma", but switched  (that's original research, of course -- the main point is that a respected expert has made the assertion repeatedly.)

thread_title:  [[Timeline of Mérida, Mexico]] 

message: One of the sections that did not really seem relevant to the article and was distracting even though it was presented at the end of the article was the section of “International Relations” which included information about the sister cities of Merida. This does not seem to be of importance, rather than fun facts about it.
The section on culture seems to be over represented but it is a good thing it is. It provides vital information on the cultural practices of the area. Some of the sections that are under represented are those of health and education. These two sections do not provide much information and only provide lists of the available schools or medical centers.

Talk:Just-in-time manufacturing

message: The first line says
This tells me that it is a methodology and its aim but does not tell me the methodology's contents. The rest of the article also omits an explanation of what it is (though there is a tantalizing hint later in the article)
There are some other hints in linked articles:
I was tempted to edit the first line to say "Just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing, also known as just-in-time production or the Toyota Production System (TPS), is a production methodology for making only what is needed, only when it is needed, and only in the amount that is needed where the only materials housed in a production environment are those on which work is currently being done. It aims primarily at reducing times within the production system as well as response times from suppliers and to customers." However, I know nothing about the subject, so I leave it for another editor to copy in if appropriate.

message: You've done a great job inlining this as a Lua module, and incorporating the Helmert transform -- but would it be possible to get the external service up and running again too?

It would be great if this could be got working again -- eg I'm just about to upload a quantity of 'official' grid references for Scottish listed buildings, and it would be nice if they could be working links rather than just strings.  Jheald (talk) 13:24, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I can't really help with setting up a new external page, maybe  can. If Lua doesn't work on Wikidata, maybe we can try to get geohack to accept OS grid refs as input directly? It has code (albeit buggy) to convert OS grid refs back to lat/long. I haven't had any success in getting the geohack owners to fix the bugs, so getting them to accept OS grid refs may be difficult. — hike395 (talk) 20:49, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

message: (The Titan main memory consisted of 128K of ferrite core store rather than part core part rotating drum-store as used on the Manchester Atlas)
The crucial distinction in memory organisation is surely the real vs virtual one. Virtual memory inevitably means main memory (be it core or semiconductor) backed by drum (then) or disc (now).

thread_title:  Canada Day Celebration 

message: There seems to be some issues regarding the number of times Alvah Mayo has been the NS Chess Champion. According to the reference provided, this title is awarded to the winner of the NS Closed Championship, and Alvah Mayo appears only twice in this list. Admittedly the list is incomplete, but we cannot second guess what is not there. I have therefore changed the claim to 'two time champion'.
There are several routes forward. If he did win the Closed Championship 7 times, then a reference must be provided that verifies this. If however the claim is that he has won seven differing titles, then the wording of the text needs to be changed accordingly.
I also have to question the notability of this item. I would have expected Google to find more information for someone truly notable, especially in the press. Maybe some chess enthusiast has access to something in print? Derek Andrews (talk) 11:52, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Electronic News Gathering Text that has not been merged. --WikiCats 11:28, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Electronic News Gathering

message: Being an ENG Camera Operator, the term of Electronic News Gathering doesn't really pertain to the name as much anymore. The national cable company I work for refers to their mobile handheld camera operators as ENG Camera Operators, even when outside of a traditional 'news' role. Generally, ENG Cameras differ from regular studio and mobile production cameras as they are more lightweight, do not have the same signal connections and have their own tape recording mechanism. 
As well, ENG operations allow for a more fluid and dynamic shooting environment over traditional camera setups due to the constraints of cables, dollys and rigging that the traditional systems use and the actual location of filming. Because of this and current technology the role of ENG equipment is becoming more predominant in non-traditional uses.

I decided to delete part of evidence description which says "there are no evidence for non-effectiveness". It's obsolete, next to information, that "there are no evidence for effectiveness". In scientific method you cannot prove non-existence, therefore only statements about proofs for existence or lack of evidence for existence are sensible. Statements like "there is no evidence for absence of" can mislead the public- they suggest that there is something missing in research.
