Talk:Philosophy of business

message: I hope the author is planning a book on this topic because none exists and one should.

replies: text: I am an undergraduate Philosophy student at Eastern Oregon University.  Make of that what you will, but I agree partially with Icut4you, in that I agree Business Ethics must be considered within the context of a Philosophy of Business and in fact is a sub-discipline therein; and yet, I likewise agree partially with mydogategodshat, for I agree that if one is writing about Business Ethics, "every paragraph should tie into practical ethical decisions in some way."  Perhaps eventually the Philosophy of Business article can be a master article with four sub-articles, if Wikipedia allows for that, the four sub-articles being: Business Metaphysics, Business Epistemology, Business Ethics, and Business Political Theory.  The days of Ayn Rand standing on one foot are over, I think.  Thus spake Ayn Rand in simpler times: "Metaphysics: Objective Reality.  Epistemology: Reason.  Ethics: Self-Interest.  Politics: Capitalism."  Back then, what seemed needful were answers.  Today, what we need far more urgently are questions, lest plutocracy continue to its logical conclusion, and each person either own capital or be capital, for one could argue that the natural direction of the plutocrat is toward doing no labor and paying no wages, hence toward the ownership of slaves.  Ayn Rand thought the capitalist needed sanction.  I say the plutocrat needs self-doubt.  In any case, whether it's answers we need or questions, I agree partially with Icut4you and partially with mydogategodshat, and I have given my reasons.Rpjr (talk) 08:52, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Unless the word philosophy is being used in such a wide sense so as to be meaningless I cannot see how Peter Drucker can be described as a philosopher.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alnpete (talk • contribs) 11:48, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Peter Drucker

message: This is an important topic. 
But it really doesn't scratch the surface.
I'd like to see coverage of things like:
* Milton Friedman's ideas pf profit maximisation and Shareholder value
* Reaction to those ideas, like in In Search of Excellence and John Mackey's COnscious Capitlaism that adopts a Stakeholder theory approach.
* Explorations of the role of business in society, like E.F. Schumacher in Small is Beautiful and a Guide for the Perplexed
* Deeper philosophical exploration of rationalism, like in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
* Exploration of philosophy and leadership, like in some key leadership development texts

message: * Honestly, what's the point of inserting the castillian name in en-wiki? Rest assured I am *not* politically motivated, I just don't see it fit. It would be more useful to have the *english* version of the name, being it Orense, Ourense, Auria or whatever, I do not care, and leave the spanish version of the name for es-wiki.

Talk:Newgrounds

message: Over the last couple of weeks I've put some time into making this article look a little more encyclopedic and up-to-date by putting in the new info regarding the scouting process having been carried over to the Audio Portal, reworking the "Flash Portal" section into a Movie & Games Portal section, removing cruft or unencyclopedic stuff that would be better suited for Wikigrounds, etc and making the article more accessible to a layperson with no prior knowledge of the site and its inner workings. There are two points of concern that I have yet to address-- one's the empty Art Portal section, which I plan to expand, and the empty History section, which could benefit greatly by information sourced from this part of NG-- of course, with the information used with appropriate care per WP:PRIMARY and avoidance of promotional language that may be present in the source.
I can't do the latter all that easily since the work firewalls block the page, and I don't have the time or the mind to do it at home. If anyone at all (anyone? [long echoing silence]) is able to take a peep at that information and prepare something for the History section, we could be that much closer to getting this to GA status. (obviously, there's still a ton of work needing to be done before GAR can be considered, but baby steps, you know...) BlusterBlasterkablooie! 12:41, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

message: Per WP:UNDUE, I do not think that discussion of viruses and their dubious place in cell theory belongs in the lead section. Cell theory remains nearly universally accepted in the life sciences - as seen by articles, textbooks, and even entire journals continuing to treat cell theory as implicit fact. I edited the second paragraph to remove a source which did not support its cited statement, and adjusted its wording for readability, but I question whether that paragraph should be removed entirely.

This category is wrongly named, it should be "Scottish Lochs", the word is universally understood and used, I've never heard of a Loch being called a Lake.
:sort of agree, but I can see how this fits in with an international lakes category, and of course there's one lake in Scotland (and ok, the lake of Menteith is so-called after laigh rather than laken).

Talk:Mister Big (James Bond)

message: Was Kananga in the film version based on François Duvalier, the Haitian dictator?  I've never read anything to suggest that was the case, but... a Caribbean island dictator, hostile to the U.S, from an all-black nation, who also used voodoo superstition and played off his resemblance to Baron Samedi to intimidate his population into submission.  And he had been in power until just two years before the film was released, after which he was succeeded by his son, who was for all intents and purposes a clone of Duvalier Sr.  
I don't plan to include this in the article since it's original research at present... but does anyone know anything about this that could be legitimately quoted?  The parrallels and timing are just too striking to have been a coincidence, IMO. 213.181.226.21 (talk) 20:03, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi.  Sorry to revert a good-faith edit.  The open question was a direct quote from the original Science article.  It still seems open to me:  what do you think the answer is?

replies: text: Thanks Robin, no probs. It wasn't clear that it was a quote from a mag. However I checked the kaminski article (11 JUNE 2004 VOL 304 SCIENCE www.sciencemag.org) and the word "voice" doesn't occur. In any case since the words spoken are spoken by the human voice, I can' see the distinction. Perhaps the quote came from another article. I'll await your input before editing.

message: I was about to edit the station's infobox station to Route 128/University Park as multiple signs throughout the station use this title, and while less notable, google search results also use the title.
However, when I began to make the edit, I came across the comment  in the station infobox template.  I'm here to ask what the general consensus is for signage in this case, especially as both the MBTA and Amtrak signs do say "University Park station" but on the bottom of the sign, as seen in the second and third images I've linked here. I will note that the station page for T.F. Green Airport notes the platform signs saying T.F. Green Airport/Warwick as well, despite (like Route 128) the MBTA not using this to refer to the station. Pokemonred200 (talk) 15:24, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question. That platform signage, as your pictures show, generally uses "Route 128" on top and "University Park Station" on bottom as a secondary title. TF Green, in contrast, has it all on one line. Both the MBTA and Amtrak websites just use the simpler "Route 128". Given that, I think it's best to keep the simpler name in the infobox. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 20:38, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  Gotcha. I asked in part because I noticed "Also subtitled Route 128/University Park" was removed from the article lede, which I felt was somewhat odd given the station signage and online maps information implying it to be an official name for the station (not unlike Wilmington's Amtrak station being Joseph R. Biden Jr. Railroad Station, or how Anderson RTC is announced as Anderson/Woburn on MBTA digital signage). It appears to be prominently featured at the station site itself, so I do believe the name should be featured in the article somewhere. Pokemonred200 (talk) 21:51, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
