Talk:Jiangsu cuisine

message: I'm not sure, because this is the first time I've actually heard of Jiangsu cuisine, but I'm guessing that it shouldn't say "tastes soft" and then explain that it wouldn't be mushy and fall off the bone.  I could be missing something though.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.233.98.74 (talk) 18:26, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: No, they mean soft in a general holistic sense, mostly inspired by the entire idea of Jiangnan culture being soft and gentle. It would mean gentle flavors without strong spices or acids, not tender meat. — LlywelynII 00:33, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

message: This is an unremarkable stub of an article on chinese cuisine. Unremarkable in the fact that just about all of the Chinese cuisine articles are sub par, there are a few that stand out, but mainly they are long on what can only be poor translations of poor and minimal content. A sad fact indeed as for someone who has traveled and eaten widely in China, its cuisine is truely a highlight (if not the highlight) of its culture.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Calabashhh (talk • contribs) 23:16, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:History of poetry

message: OK, what to do with this article?  My thought is this should focus on two areas: (1) the emergence of early poetic traditions and language and (2) the various articles on Wikipedi poeatry a focused on "National" poetries (e.g., British, Irish, Ottoman, etc.). in the National poetries, I think it should take an overarching view, looking not at the detail but instead at the interaction and development of the poetries at a higher level.  I also think the article should tie in to the Years in poetry work set up by Stumps.  Any thoughts before the serious work begins? Sam 16:03, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Game Plan 

message: The very first sentence of this article claims that "Poetry predates written text." It uses the following link as a reference: https://www.yukon-news.com/news/poet-goes-from-newsprint-to-verse/
This reference is a very soft journalistic piece about a specific modern poet and does not itself justify that poetry does indeed predate written text in any way whatsoever.
Perhaps this claim should be removed from the article or at the very least the reference should be replaced with something more credible (I was not able to find a more credible reference for this claim in a short research session).

thread_title:  Poetry predates written text? 

message: Ancient Greek 'pop culture' discovery rewrites history of poetry and song summarizes LESS CARE, MORE STRESS: A RHYTHMIC POEM FROM THE ROMAN EMPIRE.
It claims the text moves forward the date of the transition from quantitative poetry to stressed poetry in Western poetry.
I came here to read about that transition but I don't see it mentioned in the text.
Is the transition mentioned in other words I didn't understand?
If not, shouldn't it be explained in the article?

:Those are the "edit" links for the Calc section, the Writer section, and the Components section.

Talk:Rhyne

message: My German friend suggests that the derivation of the word RHYNE may arise from the german RINNE - a channel or RINNEN to leak.  There may be a Dutch word RJNN - a gutter, but someone can confirm that.  This would explain why the water channel in Somerset is called RHYNE and the banks are DIKES.  Compare with the Norfolk Broads where the bank is a ROND(E) and the water is a DIKE (DYKE).
The RHYNE empties into the tidal river Parrett via a CLYCE, which permits the egress of rhyne water at low tide, but the weight of the river water closes the gravity door and prevents back-up.  Does anyone know where that name (CLYCE) comes from?
Lest we forget the likes of: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/rinse, and, https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/runnel, and, https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Rhine
One wonders how those wanting Welsh and Irish roots to do with the word "rhyne" overlooked all the stronger-seeming sundry English roots.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:411:1600:226:8FF:FEDC:FD74 (talk) 21:30, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
