thread_title: Propose Move

message: The reference to FFTs should be removed: the model is to use Fourier transforms, not DFT or its computational companion, the FFT. The wording as it now stands implies that there is some reason to use DFT (FFT) and there is no such reason. Indeed, the DFT might be used fruitfully but as always, it should be used with care as otherwise surprises can ensue. Again: The fundamental model is (continuous) Fourier transform, not discrete Fourier transform.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.101.218.30 (talk) 11:22, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

message: Sorry, but I really don't think he's notable. He's a great-great grandson of a monarch, has no title and will get little press attention. This should be reverted to the redirect.  --UpDown 07:55, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The Taylor children shouldn't have articles either, and you can't use other article to defend this one. He may be notable for the first direct male-line descendant of George V to have no title, but that does not need a whole article.

thread_title:  Names 

message: Was he briefly in the line of succession between birth and baptism?  Did he ever appear in an officially published line?  This is important, as there has been some dispute over at what point Catholic children lose there place in the line of succession, is it baptism? PatGallacher (talk) 10:36, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: He was in line from the moment of his birth until the moment of his baptism as a Catholic. He was never included on the BRF site because sooner or later he'd need to be removed anyway. A person is in the line of succession from birth unless they are baptised Catholic, marry a Catholic or convert to Catholicism. Just because he was born to Catholic parents didn't make this a sure thing, but yes, for the couple months between his birth and baptism, he was in the line of succession.

Talk:Ali/Ali as spritual teacher

message: == Ali as spiritual teacher ==
Hi Zora,
First of all, Merry Christmas!
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali : “most famous collection of Ali's speeches and letters is the Peak of Eloquence (Arabic: Nahj al-Balāgha).”
I did a quick search and find out that “surely, the likeness of this world is that of a snake: it is soft to touch, and deadly poisonous. The ignorant child is distracted by it, and the one with understanding and intellect is cautious of it. So turn away from what fascinates you in it, for how little of it stays with you. “ is quoted from the Peak of Eloquence, letter no. 68. It is a pretty famous saying of Ali and deserves to be included. 
Would you please let me know what your concerns are regarding the quotes from Ali? Is it just the sources?
Thanks.
P.S. I didn't delete Mazar-i-sharif reference. Somebody else did it. There can be more than one anon :)
:An anon added a bit re Ali teaching a certain spiritual practice. I don't think that this can be stated as fact. From what I've read about Sufism and other such spiritual practices, a great many traditions trace their practices back to Ali -- however, since the practices became widespread many centuries after Ali's death, academics believe that it is much more likely that they are late inventions. Perhaps we should have a section on Sufism and Ali, in which both opinions (practices taught by Ali and practices merely attributed to Ali) can be laid out. Zora 07:46, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Ali/Caliphate of Ali

message: It has been proven that Ali killed thousands of iranians that stood in his way, well you have to assume good faith, they probably deserved it for not forgetting about their language and culuture and converting to islam. But he didn't seem to mind having more than 150 persian wifes, well then again perhaps they liked him for the man he was. --Spahbod 19:55, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Source? --Striver 21:46, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

text: Bahram Moshiri has proven it several times in his television programms, but hes far from the only one with the proofs in his hands, it has been proven a long time ago. Its ok tho, it was not only him, almost every arab including the Imams that walked in persia in the time of the conquest has killed some persians and have had some persian wifes. So the shias don't have to worry about getting all the credit. Ironically it was the Caliphes that limited the amount of persian wifes an arab citizen could have, and if they had not done so there would be no persian women left after a few generations, so you have to give them some credit for thinking about the future. --Spahbod 22:22, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

text: Well, i propose you specify your sources better than "he said it in his show" and then add it to non-Muslim view of Ali. --Striver 04:27, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually i didn't say "he said it in his show". I said he has proven it over and over by showing parts of historical books and documents that proofs it. However you make a good point, i will have to buy his book Two Disasters, "Two Reflections, describing Mongol and Arab attacks on Iran and their consequences." to add the proof here. I suggest you buy it too. To see, well i was gonna say the truth, but you have to judge for yourself of course. --Spahbod 06:28, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Attack at Ament's Cabin

message: I noticed that the article alternates between use of 'rifle' and 'musket,' e.g. "the crack of a rifle outside... struck by two musket balls." 'Rifle' and 'musket' are not synonymous (they're different weapons), and judging by the time this occurred (and by the fact that Native Americans did not usually have the most advanced weaponry at their disposal), the participants would probably have been using muskets. That's just my guess though; I'm not certain. Any expertise on this would be helpful so that we can change the article to reflect it. Cheers, --MatthewLiberal 00:37, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:John M. Culkin

message: WP:BLP requires that contentious material that is unsourced, about living people, be removed without discussion.  First, there is nothing contentious about the paragraph in question - if you question the facts, like whether he was 6'9", or what high school he went to, then put in a  request.  John has been dead, sadly, for 16 years, and I see absolutely nothing in that paragraph that could be a collateral problem for any  living person (which theoretically could be a reason for invoking BLP) - so please stop removing it, and express here what exactly you are concerned about.
