Talk:Lunar geologic timescale

message: Shouldn't it be lunalogic timescale, or lunarlogic?  Because geologic refers to the earth (from Greek γη- (ge-, "the earth")).  Just something to keep you awake at night.  Dukemeiser 00:38, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "Selenologic", actually (Selene is the Greek word for Moon whereas Luna is Latin, scientists don't like mixing Latin and Greek). See for example Selenography.  Bryan 01:02, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

message: 3200 MY to 1100 MY is using an undocumented non-standard "MY" unit.  Presumably this is millions of years ago, abbreviated mya, m.y.a., or Ma.  The article should use one of those. -- Skierpage 11:16, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Its somewhat rare to see Mya in the scientific literature, so I vote for Ma and Ga. However, these abreviations are often used to mean both "million years ago" and "a million years" (probably incorrectly). Perhaps it would be a good idea to cite the rules concerning their proper usage here. Lunokhod 13:20, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I have found two reputable authorities for the Basin Groups Stage as a subdivision of the Pre-Nectarian. Take a look at the GeoWhen database and
Harland, Walter Brian , et al. (1989) A Geologic Time Scale 1989 Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, UK,  Fig. 1.7 on page 10, available via Google books, which shows both Basin Groups and Cryptic.  Unfortunately the textual discussion is not available as part of the Google offering.  I do realize that at present these subdivisions remain more theoretical than real, as many lunar deposits are still just lumped together as Pre-Imbrian age materials, which may account for the absence of mention of Basin Groups in Wilhelms' book and Martel's article. I also found a recent usage in Birriel, Jennifer (2006) "The Faint Young Sun Paradox" Mercury  35:6, pp.12-19, on page 17.  --Bejnar 02:13, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Although the term does seem to get occasional use, I don't see anything offhand online predating its addition to this article on 2013-01-08, and so I wonder if it was coined or first recorded as a protologism right here.

message: I agree with the 'clarification needed' tag against the vague statement that "women in church groups were especially anti-war".  By groups does the writer think denominations, denominational organisations or Christian non-sectarian organisations (inasmuch any of the latter existed then)? The Anglican and international Mother's Union, for example, had no organisational policy against the war with many of its members being the wives and mothers of British Empire servicemen, and of Anglican clergy serving as forces chaplains.Cloptonson (talk) 08:29, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Vertigo Comics

message: There are parts of this article that could use some expansion, but it's already quite long at 8,846 words, not counting citations. Article length can vary, but 5,000 words is usually a good number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:FAQ/Editing#How_long_should_the_ideal_article_be?. It's currently longer than the article for DC Comics, which clocks in at 7,542 words. Looking to articles on other media, the Miramax article is 3,002 words; New Line Cinema 2,174 words; Lionsgate 4,096; Orion Pictures 4,924.
The Creators section alone is 4,778 words, which seems excessive given that almost all the editors and creators listed have their own articles (and Will Dennis probably should have his own). Cutting this down to just lists seems overkill, since some explanation of why each creator is important seems warranted. But I think these should be a sentence or two at most.
If there are no objections, I can start editing these down. I'll move any unique, relevant, and verifiable information elsewhere in the article or into the individual articles. I would welcome help on this as well.
Also, the sub-imprint write-ups in the Middle Period section takes up 1,421 words. This also seems excessive. I'll verify that all the books listed here are also listed in the List of Vertigo publications article and that the subimprint are all noted, then cut the lists (again, assuming there are no objections) and adjust the text where it seems necessary.

thread_title: Merging Agri decumates with Agri Decumates

message: I removed the chunk of Latin from Tacitus.  Since so few people can understand it today (especially those under 60, since it's instruction largely lapsed in the 1960s), placing it in a wikipedia article, in my opinion, is, at best, overkill, at worst, pedantry. Also, the English translation is also unnecessary.  Anyone  interested, can certainly read the book the Germania in translation.  (There are many to choose from.)
'Also, I removed all but one of the German works referenced in the "Literature" section (which I renamed to the arguably more accurate "Further Reading").
Since this is the American version of wikipedia and so few Americans speak even read German, coupled with the great difficult an American (or even a British, let alone and Aussie or Kiwi!) would have in even finding the books even if he or she could read German, I've removed all of them except the one work which is quoted in the article text.
