Talk:Sunpendulum

message: All contributions are welcome regarding the Sunpendulum. Eventually, a book of contributions will be published, documenting the human aspects of the Sunpendulum. Bob Hewis, Sunpendulum English Documentation Editor 91.112.14.46 16:03, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Comment

message: Before NPOV editors got involved, all of the text in this Wikipedia article was copied directly from various sunpendulum.at pages and from an article on this inst.at page.
The article claims a "series of incredibly successful media reports and the press coverage that followed the Sunpendulum press conferences," a claim which is belied by google news searches for either "Hofstetter Kurt" or "Sunpendulum" which each yield zero hits.

Talk:Alabama Black Belt

message: I've rewritten and wikified the introductory paragraph, and removed the context banner. But the rest of the article requires a lot more effort. --Chris Jefferies 16:07, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Tidying up the article

message: As discussion on Talk:Black Belt (region of Alabama) I think this article should be merged into Black Belt (region of Alabama) and/or Black Belt (U.S. region). The first page is mainly about the black belt as it pertains to Alabama in particular, while the second has a larger focus. If anyone feels up to it, all three could be merged into one, I think, with sections pertaining to the various meanings. Too much work for me right now though. But reading this page here, I have a couple observations. 
A while ago I did some work to try and expand and improve Black Belt (U.S. region). That page's talk page contains some useful information, but is hard to read due to a very lengthy debate on Kentucky. I noticed on this page there is the claim: "The term Black Belt has also been designated to counties where black people outnumber the white. Over half of the population in the Black Belt is African American. The Black Belt Region also refers to the area of 623 southern counties that have this higher African American percentage." I don't think this is true. There is some info on this on the U.S. region talk page, but buried, so see this section: Talk:Black Belt (U.S. region)#Comments on the above section, especially the last paragraph. According to the US Census 2000, there are 96 US counties with 50% or higher African American population. The figure of 623 counties probably comes from the proposed "Southern Black Belt" federal commission region. There are a few links to more info on this topic in that paragraph.

Talk:Singer Vinger

message: 1976/77 - 1980 I think there should be a site for this band too. There was one album released. The band had a film out every 2 weeks, when the music video was starting in the world. The films where comedy and may be lost since they were not allowed on state TV in the old times. The band had name changes every few months reverting to real band name just a week or a day before the concert to avoid too much attention from the KGB... since they were enforcing the antirock policy of the Old Guard. I was personally present when the name was assumed, and one on the suggestion list was Roti Äri -Rats Business, Correct me if I am wrong. I sometimes heard them rehearse.

Talk:Laredo International Railway Bridge 2

message: This article currently mentions the possible alternate location with a sentence that reads:
: Environmental studies performed by Kansas City Southern de México and Union Pacific suggest the railway bridge be built between El Cenizo, Texas and Rio Bravo, Texas south of Laredo and East Nuevo Laredo.
It seems unlikely that someone would want to build a bridge between El Cenizo and Rio Bravo, Texas.  I am wondering if the sentence should be altered to instead read:
: Environmental studies performed by Kansas City Southern de México and Union Pacific suggest the railway bridge be built between El Cenizo, Texas and Río Bravo, Tamaulipas south of Laredo and Nuevo Laredo.
Does that seem correct?  Are there any further updates on this bridge proposal and where it might be built (or if it might still be built)?  Thank you. 69.126.127.193 (talk) 04:37, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Answering my own query: No that is not correct.  The alternate location for the proposed new bridge lies south of Rio Bravo, Texas and north of El Cenizo, Texas.  At that location the bridge could run almost due west across the Rio Grande into an unsettled portion of Tamaulipas that lies south of Nuevo Laredo and north of San Antonio, Tamaulipas.  The proposal is indeed not to build a bridge from Rio Bravo, TX to El Cenizo, TX; rather the bridge's eastern anchor will lie between those two Texas towns and it will bridge the river running west into Mexico. The town of Rio Bravo, Tamaulipas is about 200 km south southeast of the alternate site for the proposed bridge. The alternate site at  is rather well indicated on Wikimapia. 69.126.127.193 (talk) 19:13, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Kateleios

message: Whoa!  This article remarks that the nearby village of Mavrata is "where homosexuality originated".  At the very least this requires a citation.  And probably a heap of qualification as well.  I've taken the liberty of toning this statement down to something more nearly plausible.  I haven't run into any other references that make this statement about Mavrata; until some beefy citations are available, a better response would probably be just to pull that reference entirely, but I'm giving the originator of this article the benefit of the doubt.

Talk:Hikari (company)

message: The Hikari company's history should remain in the Wikipedia since it is very well-known to fishkeeping hobbyists especially koi and goldfish petkeepers.  Their products are considered first class and what distinguishes the Hikari products from other brands is that apart from nutritional advantages (through an innovitave food technology) the fish food products don't cloud the water. And that makes Hikari notable.  Wikipedia must be able to provide this information to fishkeepers and would-be petowners.Dragonbite 16:35, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi All. I think the rewrite reads better, however, the notability of the company remains unestablished. In order to not be deleted the article needs to cite sources that demonstrate it's notability under WP:CORP. The quality of products they make has no bearing on the notability (from WP's point of view). I'll re-add the notability tag. If notability cannot be asserted in the article the article should probably be subject to an AFD discussion. MidgleyDJ 22:52, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Hi Alex!  I'm so glad that you like it. :)  I wouldn't worry about italicizing the species names right now — I think we can do that automatically.  However, it would be helpful to know of any other sections (such as "species distribution" or "structure") that you'd like to have included in the pages, so that you all wouldn't have to input them by hand.

thread_title: section on species distribution

message: Hi Narayanese. I can't find any evidence for a relationship between Ro and Calreticulin. I've removed the links you added. Unless you can find a reference showing t his link? Below are the text from Pfam descriptions: 
*'Calreticulin' is a high-capacity calcium-binding protein which is present in most tissues and located at the periphery of the endoplasmic (ER) and the sarcoplamic reticulum (SR) membranes. It probably plays a role in the storage of calcium in the lumen of the ER and SR and it may well have other important"
*'Ro ribonucleoprotein'  contains the follwing Pfam domain family: 'TROVE' (PF05731), represented by protein RO60_HUMAN (P10155) 538 AA. This presumed domain is found in TEP1 and Ro60 proteins, that are RNA-binding components of Telomerase, Ro and Vault RNPs. This domain has been named TROVE, (after Telomerase, Ro and Vault). This domain is probably RNA-binding.--Ppgardne 15:09, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Incorrect Translation of Title
Though I have a pretty basic understanding of Japanese, based on the Japanese page, the "桃山人" (pronounced Tōsanjin) in the title is actually the author's name.

The author is Tōsanjin (桃山人) (however, in the preface the author's name is written Tōka Sanjin [桃花山人]). According to the Kokusho Sōmokuroku (Iwanami Shoten), this is considered to be a gesaku author from the latter half of the Edo period, Tōkaen Michimaro (桃花園三千麿).

message: Metal detectors are a subset of inductive sensors.   Inductive sensors are widely used in industry as proximity switches.   Examples of companies that make them are Pepperl-Fuchs, Turck, Balluff, Banner, Keyenece, amongst many others.   These are usually directional (shielded) inductive sensors that have a surface diameter of 5 - 40mm and a sense range of 1 - 50mm.  They are quite a different animal, at least in packaging and functionality, than the large inductive coils used in metal detectors or traffic signals.
