Talk:Manifesto of Futurism

message: There is something I can´t understand: was it published originally in italian or french? I´ve been looking for different translations, and all the french versions I see have only 5 articles, but I have alse seen small, difficult to read pictures of the original paper, and it looks like it was the 11 articles italian version. Why is this french version so popular, are they all copied-and-pasted versions of some mistaken text?!
The english version at wikisource was also missing a final part in the 11th article. And the italian version, also in wikisource, was missing some important sentences, like the one about "disprezzo della donna". Why it it so difficult to find an integral version of this manifesto!? -- NIC1138 18:57, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

message: The article's title in the article itself is "The Futurist Manifesto", as shown here with "The" not in bold. What is the proper title of the article? Does it include the "the" or not? --SteelersFan UK06 01:54, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "The" or "-" 

message: I have removed the reference to Fascism at the beginning of the article because it was full of mistakes.  Futurism did not give rise to Fascism: Fascism was born out the the political and social conditions of Italy.  A relationship between Futurism and Fascism developed ten years after the publication of the Futurist Manifesto as part of what was called Secondo Futurismo; Fascism did not exist between 1909 and 1916, which may be said to mark the beginning and end of the first wave of Futurism.  Indeed, during most of this period Mussolini himself was a socialist. The first wave of Futurism combined anarchism and nationalism.  The later close relationship between Secondo Futurismo and Fascism is well-known and no-one has never attempted to hide it. - Marshall46 18:36, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Network effect

message: The credit card example has a few issues in its writing mechanics, including a sentence fragment and a viscous line of reasoning but its real problem is mistaking the credit card for the network unit.  The network unit is the payment machine, or card reader, each of which communicates with the credit card payment center, forming a centralized network.  The credit card is important to identify the customer, but the thought expressed by "Each additional person uses the same credit card, the value of rest people who use the credit card will increase" is a non-sequitur.  For example, more cardholders could hypothetically overload the network, impeding transactions that it wouldn't with fewer cardholders.  The machine is useful to the merchant because it facilitates payment, increasing sales.  And it guarantees all payments authorized at the time of sale - even if the card is later determined to have been used fraudulently by the customer.  The more merchants that have this machine and can therefore accept credit cards as payment, the more useful and more valuable the payment network becomes - to the owner of the network, such as Visa Intl. This is the main network effect. The cardholder doesn't directly benefit from more cardholders using the network.  The cardholder can benefit directly from extra card readers being added to the network, but the customer technically doesn't even own the card! There is no network among the cards or cardholders, so the benefit cannot be directly attributed to the network effect. The credit card company can also be seen to benefit from greater numbers of cardholders, but again not a direct result of the network effect. Fairthomas (talk) 07:25, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Talk:List of maria on the Moon

Mare Parvum (Small Sea) lies immediately to the east of crater Inghirami on the western limb.
Mare Incognitum (Unknown Sea) lies "behind" Liddiard (an unofficial name for a crater near Gauss, though where exactly I don't know!).
Mare Novum (New Sea) lies NE of Plutarch.
Mare Struve (Struve's Sea) is near Messala. Eroica 10:52, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Slave trade

message: Folks, this is appalling.  Firstly, why is this given the Definitve "Slave Trade", when there have been so many slave trades.  Why does it focus on such a narrow few.  Why the inclusion of the overtly pro or Anti Jewish line ? (Jews never had slaves? so the Torah lies, does it?).  This is in dire need of a cleanup, and considering I know Very little about any slave trade, save the American one, I'm not the one to do it. --Irishpunktom\talk 20:10, July 17, 2005 (UTC)

Talk:List of historical chimpanzees

message: I feel List of historical monkeys should be made a redirect to List of historical chimpanzees. There is nothing at all of real substance in List of historical monkeys. List of fictional monkeys and List of historical animals are 'See also's. List of historical apes has the monkeys excluded from it. And the only remaining entry is the one for chimpanzees. Jay 20:57, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: No. Let's observe proper taxonomy.  A chimpanzee is not a monkey, nor vice versa.  Chimps are apes however. (I believe the seperate articles are the result of the chimpanzee being an older article, and the person who started the apes not being aware of the chimp one at first.) If we wish to consolodate, perhaps all should be merged in a List of non-human primates?   -- Infrogmation 04:44, 16 Jan 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Now that the 'List of historical chimpanzees' too has disowned 'List of historical monkeys', the latter can be deleted. Continuing on the above discussion, can't everything be merged into 'List of historical apes' ? Why go for non-human primates ? Jay 09:16, 16 Jan 2004 (UTC)

message: I think the word "historic" should be deleted from the tittle, that or delete the non-historical horses from the list.
I added Rocinante to the list because I saw Silver and thought that this is another famous, and more historical, horse so it should be in the list.
:Historical simply means "of history" (actual or real): (Of, concerning, or in accordance with recorded history),  as opposed to "fictional", "mythical", etc. —107.15.157.44 (talk) 18:51, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Historic" matter 

message: Folks, I discovered that there are about 600 horses listed in the "famous horses" category.  Many of the horses listed on this page have no links to the articles about them.
May I recommend that we eliminate ALL the lists here and instead make this into some sort of a navigational "tree" to the category pages so as articles are added the page doesn't have to be constantly updated and maintained?
That said, the famous horses categories also are in desperate need of work. There are subcategories within subcategories, horses listed as famous horses, then again as famous racehorses, etc.  It needs some major cleanup.  Ideally, the "famous horses" category would have very few actual articles linked, but rather be a list of the subcategories, which need to be redone...the structure here is actually much better!  The list of thoroughbred race horses alone is a life's work for someone!
At any rate, this page, while a great idea, is actually impossible to keep accurate to what's in wikipedia and I suggest we make it a category tree instead of an actual list.  Thoughts? Montanabw 07:51, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that at the very least some of these lists should go. At the moment many of these horse cannot really be regarded as historical and are not linked to articles. Quite a few Tbs are also in the leading Tbs article, too.Cgoodwin (talk) 05:50, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Go for it, I won't kick.  I think we do need the list of lists, but I think the categories really do most of the work of listing famous individual animals.  Fewer the better, in my opinion.  Montanabw(talk) 03:19, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

message: According to the introduction, from 1990 to 2015, pre-term birth deaths fell by nearly 50%.  In the eight years since then, it's possible that they've fallen significantly more.  As a result, the penultimate introduction sentence (rates of survival per week), which reports data from 2016, may be out of date — if deaths continue to fall, chances of survival per week will necessarily change, so we need something newer.
