Talk:Roman Catholic Diocese of Whitehorse

message: As of July 2021, this article was modified to eliminate the nondescript term "Roman Catholic" in certain contexts, favoring of the more precise distinction of "Latin Church" (the sui iuris church) and "Catholic Church" (the denomination). Like many dioceses in Canada, this diocese self-identifies as "Roman Catholic," so editors are encouraged to render the diocese's name as such upon first mention. If you believe this edit to be in error or improper, please make the relevant reversion and open discussion on this talk page or my personal talk page. Thank you. ~ Pbritti (talk) 23:56, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: This article, and probably all articles in areas of high precision miccroscopy (and the common extension of machines' probing mechanism to energies that enable nanolithography), requires something unheard of:  an explanation that would enable someone who possesses a now quite common, if hand wavy and qualitative, technical understanding that would enable them to "picture" things in their mind.   For example, from my own experience I know that many instruments incorporate 6-DOF "stages" to manipulate samples into arbitrary orientations relative to the detectors or probe sources. such "sample stages," which can be either physically very small (like TEM slides) or very large (like the chucks used for wafers in commercial scale multi 10 million dollar systems).  Its an annoying thing, because the scientists and engineers who learn to use this type of technology are, initially at least, no less confused and lacking in practical understand as the general population and in many cases have their confusion about "HOW EVEN DOES THIS WORK?" and yet tend not to provide the same information when they later are in a position to do technical writing.   Its a form of educational chauvanism that I hate, and counter as often as I can.  I have written very simple explanations for TEM, AFM, NMR, various IR/optical/UV spectroscopy, and chromatographic instrumentation in dozens of different websites/communities/forums that are intended to explain "how" a particular technology is actually used in real life and almsot every single time people thank me for the "direct" explanations67.165.122.133 (talk) 07:32, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:International Island Games Association

message: I've added the flag for the islands as used at the IGA here.  I made one modification, by creating a flag for Hitra based on the design for Froya's flag and the coat of arms of Hitra, since the site lumps them together on a description page for no apparent reason (since I believe they compete separately), and which I think would reasonably be the flag for that island.  I have not changed the flags for places like the Isle of Wight and Saaremaa, which have their own flags, but which the IGA site has listed as flying their country's flag.  Also, some islands seem to have other flags locally (the Western Isles has a council flag, and Orkney has a different unofficial flag) than the ones the IGA uses--these I have left the way the IGA has them.

message: Holy accidental hitting of the enter key while writing edit summaries, Batman! Anyway, I changed it back because that's the name it goes under at the Island Games Association (in English, which I assume is the only working language of the association).

message: Gibraltar patently fails to meet the key physical qualification for membership of the IIGA.  Has the Association ever published their justification for admitting this peninsula in spite of its own constitution?  If so, a summary of that ruling would make a good addition to this article.  (I fail to see how Anglessey meets the membership criterion of significant access and participation difficulties, being served as it is by a major trunk road with a permanent bridge, but that is a less obvious breach of the definition.)

The US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Guam or the Northern Marianas and American Samoa; the states of Hawaii and Rhode Island; and any microcosm island community such as Key West, Fla. and Santa Catalina Island, Cal.

Talk:Order (algebra)

message: Note the 'Proposed Deletion' template on the main page. I personally could see this one going either way, it is a common way to reference exponents, but it is vary similar to the two pages which User:Grubber mentioned. I'm not going to vote either way, but accept concensus. In the event that this content gets deleted, I'd like to redirect or disambiguate to one or both of the said articles. 48v 20:36, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think adding a link on order to direct to degree of a polynomial would certainly be appropriate. I would suggest that since no one is going to ever type "order (algebra)", that there is no need for a redirect; the entry on the disambig page should be sufficient. I do like what you have done on this page, and I think it'd be great if you brought some of what you wrote over onto the degree page. I can submit a PROD, but I wanted to hear from a couple others (and you 48v! your opinion matters too!) first. - grubber 00:39, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

I think that between the two sets we actually explain most cases in which degree is used. As for the disambiguation/redirect, point taken. I'm not sure why I thought a redirect was apropriate earlier. Once that merge is done, I think that deletion and the adition of a link to degree of a polynomial into the disambiguation page would be prudent. 48v 01:14, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
