Talk:Errett Bishop

message: Rather than quoting the full volume by Rosenblatt, we should cite the specific article by Bishop in this volume. I think that's the traditional procedure. Tkuvho (talk) 19:52, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds good to me. That was how I added in Warschawski, which is in the same volume. I can get it out from the library again and fix it, if you don't have it handy. Thenub314 (talk) 21:11, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: 1985 reference

message: I question validity and relevance of the reference to Bishop's supposed fundamentalist Protestant upbringing. His father was not particularly religious, and in any case died when Errett was 4 (not 5). His mother was nominally Catholic, but in practice had very little patience for religion. The reference itself, buried in a paywalled website, refers to a private conversation. I'm not saying it's false, but memory is a funny thing and context matters.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.248.2.107 (talk) 18:29, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Martyazo

message: Is there any evidence that the flag on the page currently (:File:Flag of Martyazo.svg) is anything more than the imagination of a wikipedian? In the book Burundi 1972, au bord des genocides (pp. 89-90), the Wikipedia flag actually gets a mention in the footnote and is said to represent a sort of "artists' impression" of the real flag prescribed in 1972. Does anyone have more concrete evidence? —Brigade Piron (talk) 15:04, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Talk:South Kasai

message: There seems to be a certain difficulty in establishing the exact date of the South Kasai secession, and thus whether it seceded from the Belgian Congo or the Republic of the Congo. While the pre-independence date is not "wrong", I've changed it to the 8 August which seems to be the date generally accepted in secondary literature - which also fits more obviously with the Congo Crisis narrative.—Brigade Piron (talk) 19:00, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This is now sorted. The original date is the proposed scission of the province of Kasai, August 9 (not 8) is the declaration of independence. —Brigade Piron (talk) 20:01, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Xi-Cheng Zhang

message: I just deleted a significant portion of the content in this article. I believe the comprehensive lists of research articles, awards, etc. are not consistent with Wikipedia's goal of providing a summary of relevant information (see WP:SS). A biography of an academic researcher can often include short lists that highlight particularly significant work. However, Wikipedia should not be a reproduction of a complete CV.

Talk:Subdivisions of Bristol

message: I note Dundry has been added to this article, but I'm not sure if it is appropriate. Dundry is definitely in Somerset not Bristol. If this one is in then a whole host of other places in North Somerset & Bath and North East Somerset could also be in included. What do others think?— Rod talk 10:35, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think Dundry should be here either. The other non-Bristol places listed on this article are all part of the Bristol conurbation, so there is some logic to them being there, but there is clear space between Bristol and Dundry so I think it needs to go. — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 10:43, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Marseille roundup

message: As many sites can show you, there was only one concentration camp in France (Struthof, in Alsace at the time part of the Reich). All the others, including Compiègne, were interment or transit camps : a few websites ,  and there are many others. Poppypetty 20:51, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't need Google for history of France, reading books by historians is fine, thank you. Start by stopping what amounts to revisionism immediately - and if you need some reading advice, I think that the Maurice Rajsfus' book, titled Drancy, un camp de concentration ordinaire, might be of a good place to start.

The name of the article is absurd: It was not a battle but a Roundup...
The french name of the event is "La Raffle de Marseille" and not "La bataille de Marseille.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.175.112.51 (talk) 02:26, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Internment camp 

message: A reader wrote in to point out that the article titled Battle of Marseille is misnamed. It should be called the Roundup of Marseille. The person notes that there was a battle of Marseille but it was in 1944, not 1943.
That battle seems to be the subject of the article Operation Dragoon.
I'm not 100% convinced (because of my lack of subject matter expertise) but it sounds plausible so I have gone ahead and moved the article. I trust that World War II experts will undo my change if I've made an error.--S Philbrick(Talk) 18:24, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, moving the article was not only advisable but necessary, for the reasons you gave; good job.  This is one case where the checkbox for "create redirect page" should have been UNchecked, since the article was misnamed in the first place.  That is, all the legitimate links in other articles to the Battle of Marseilles were redirected to Round up of Marseille, which is wrong.  To remedy the situation, I altered the page at Battle of Marseille to change it from a REDIRECT page to an article stub, containing a single WP:LEADSENTENCE about what the Battle was, along with some minimal Reference, Portal, and See also support to make up a stub which is ready for improvement. Mathglot (talk) 23:25, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

text: Oh, and you're right about Operation Dragoon, although before someone tries to link it directly to the French article :fr:Bataille de Marseille just wanted to point out that Dragoon also included the Battle of Toulon and other skirmishes, so is a superset of Battle of Marseille. Mathglot (talk) 23:40, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

text: Also, as with many phrasal verbs that have noun counterparts, "[to] round up" is a verb, "roundup" (sometimes hyphenated, but better without one, as no need for it) is a noun. Thus, the article should be renamed Roundup of Marseille. Mathglot (talk) 22:37, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

message: WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals.  So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,      — The Transhumanist    07:50, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Solution(s) to the qualification problem 

message: The following was edited out under the guise of literalism which I would argue non-monotonic methods were meant to resolve, in part. It is retrieved and placed here until better support can be established for its original inclusion; this is under the guise of avoiding aspersions of neo-logicism. Of course, once there is support, the quality of the insertion can be judged and improved. 
::From an operational sense, measurement and algorithmic theory played heavily in computational success of disciplines, such as Knowledge-based engineering. By judicious application of insights from Weierstrass, situations that could be labeled as Zeno-like (Zeno solutions, et al, Another example) can be avoided if numerics stability can be maintained. Where the focus is beyond numerics, many situations are still problematic, though, and demand inordinate attention. 
Note, please, the use of 'zeno' in a context that would deal with resolving shape, motion, and other physical aspects of the problem illustrated (to wit, over qualification) on this page.

Talk:Fallacy of exclusive premises

message: Um, all fish are not whales. Angryapathy (talk) 18:23, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've changed the example to address this. Dcwaterboy (talk) 18:23, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: "All fishes are not whales," is an E proposition without existential import in Boolean logic.--478jjjz (talk) 22:23, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This is still confusing the example.  The minor premise, Some Fish are not whales, is only true if "Fish" is intended in a non-scientific sense, as in sea creatures, or things that live in water.  However, the major premise is only true if "Fish" is intended in a scientific sense, as clearly there are indeed mammals that live in water.  Thus, regardless of the intention to use it as an example of a syllogistic fallacy, we never reach a clear understanding of why, due to encountering a Fallacy of Equivocation in the premises themselves.  This example needs to be changed to something that is *only* a Fallacy of Exclusive Premises. Memige (talk) 21:54, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Some fish are not whales? 

message: I feel like the two examples given, although good demonstrations of the fallacy, might confuse readers because the conclusions are both true. Unfortunately, I am not an expert in fallacies but I have been able to come with something which I hope is a valid EEO-4 fallacy:
1. No water are potatoes
2. Some potatoes are not H2O
3. Therefore, some H2O is not water
Should I replace the second example with this? I feel like it would be reckless to do so without a second opinion.EvanTaylor1289 (talk) 21:07, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Converse accident

message: The end of the article describes this as a formal fallacy, whereas the table following that statement lists converse accident as an informal fallacy. Is one correct? Can they both be true? 71.38.157.82 (talk) 01:34, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that the article is correct in saying it is a formal fallacy.  As explained in the article, an exception does not overlap with the general rule, but the converse accident states that it does overlap, therefore the converse accident is a logical (formal) fallacy. 71.60.162.113 (talk) 04:41, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

text: The most official looking web-source relevant to this that a quick search brought up, from a minor university (), lists it under informal fallacies. It makes sense, on reflection. This is essentially the same as Hasty Generalization, which is informal. Anyway, my understanding is that formal fallacies usually relate to deduction, and the examples given are (badly done) induction. I'll do some more looking, then edit.:--98.163.19.202 (talk) 21:03, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Early modern philosophy

message: The section on Indian philosophy appears to need some serious work. I'm not familiar enough with the topic to be able to do much myself, but the final paragraph may need to be deleted and rewritten entirely, as it isn't very readable at this stage. Maybe changing the whole thing to a shorter summary of early modern Indian philosophy and redirecting to the main article would work better. Mthom1312 (talk) 12:12, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: it's off-topic for the article, so i've removed it. we can have the discussion about whether or not there's a better name for this article but "philosophy in the Early modern period in Western Europe" is a discrete topic that should have an article unto itself. And if we're going to have an article on developments in the different parts of the world at the same time (the value of which seems dubious to me but I won't stop other people from writing it...) then, at least it should correspond to the *same* time period in history!
