message: It might be worth pointing out that while the response on the mailing list may have been somewhat in favour, the response on-Wiki (on the Village Pump) when Gmaxwell posted the announcement was somewhat (in fact, very much) against the change. Neil ☎ 12:52, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: And this should be discussed on-wiki, not merely on the mailing list. For myself, I think it a very bad idea; creating an account and waiting four days to make a new article is not onerous, and the wave of new articles by junior high school students about their girlfriends and against their rivals will be a great burden to the admins who will actually have to delete them all.

Talk:Receptor theory

message: Created page on receptor theory think it will make a nice addition to wikipedia will be writing it over the coming weeks Lilypink 21:00, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Created page

message: has added a new section called Receptor theory in Immunology. I dispute that the material should be included, because it does not appear relevant to the current article. Specifically, the article's topic appears to be about a hypothesis held during the early 20th century regarding pharmacology, and the mechanisms of drug / cell interaction. The term "receptor theory" appears very much to refer to the hypothesis that existed prior to the actual understanding of the bioichemical processes involved. On the other hand, the new section appears to concern itself with advances in the biochemistry that occurred in the 1960s and 1970s, after the "Receptor theory" had been validated and the since had moved on to simply study receptors. I invite CPDeLisi (or any other interested editor) to discuss the matter to decide whether the new material should be retained and improved, or simply removed as not relevant to the present topic.

thread_title: Wheat flakes

message: *Sujeop-eo is a combined hanja word (su:手:hand)' and '졉다 (gyeop; hanja: 摺; literally "folding").
:Oh, I made a typo on 졉다 as gyeop instead of typing jyeop
졉다 jyeop da is an old Korean verb of jeopda 접다 and means "fold". Hanja or Chinese character imposes more than several meaning and several forms of language like verb, noun, adjective and others. Therefore, 摺 can be interpreted like 접는(jeop neun, gerund:folding), 접힌 (jeophin, adjective :folded), 접다 (jeop da, verb fold), 접어서 (jeop-eoseo, verb : making a fold) in Korean. Therefore, sujeop-eo means "something folded with hand". Actually, there were more transitions between sujeop-eo an sujebi but explaining old Korean in English is difficult for me. -_-
*In North Korea, sujebi is called milgaru ddeudeo guk (밀가루뜨더국), which is the tree combined word: Milgaru (밀가루 wheat flour) + ddeudeo (뜯다 ddeutda) guk (국 soup).

thread_title: Your question

message: Milgaru (밀가루; literally "wheat flour") + ddeudeo (뜯다 ddeutda) guk (국; literally "soup").
:Alternate pronunciation? what do you mean by that? ㄸ is pronounced like dd or tt like 떡 (tteok or ddeok). Ddeutda means "tear", therefore milgarue ddeudeo guk indicates "soup (consisting of small flakes) torn (from) a (dough made of) wheat flour".  ( ) holds hidden meanings in the 밀가루뜨더국. --Appletrees 19:58, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, ddeudo (뜨더) is actually regarded a false usage of ddeutda (뜯다) for South Korean (I don't Know about Korean language used for North Korean) and means "in the process of tearing", so ddeutda (뜯다) is the right form referring to "tear". In Korean etymology, when someone analyzes an ancient word into modern Korean language, if the word has an adjective or adverb form, he/she always types its verb form along with the original word. --Appletrees 20:12, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

He is a well known and respected professor and author and works closely with other professors mentioned on this site, such as Colin MacCabe and Paul Bové (mentioned in the section regarding Boundary 2).
The reason given for deletion was a question of the author's (myself) credibility arguing that I was writing an article about "my husband" (my username is Ncondee and the subject's wife is Nancy Condee).  This is inaccurate insomuch that I am Vladimir Padunov's son and former student at the University, Nikolai Condee.  While the bias of family members is still present, the argument given is invalid.
Furthermore, all facts posted have been documented and credited.  There is no just reason for deletion.

message: The Berlin Plus agreement is not a fist-bump to allow pro-American forces in Europe to secretly maim pro-European civilians in Europe. The security and safety of civilians from harm must come first regardless of political considerations. This includes harm to the brain, an evil beyond tolerance.
The Commander in Chief of the United armed forces does not have the best interests or the safety of European civilians in mind. He intends to attack European countries such as Canada in order to suppress their distinct society. Every NATO member outside the borders of the United States is threatened by the failure to protect European civilians from harm.
An umbrella defending the civilians of Europe from harm must take precedence over extremely dangerous attempts to curry favor with President Obama and his minions.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.77.171.227 (talk) 15:57, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Talk:La Center

message: ::  Most of these words have the ending -er in the U.S.  The difference is most common for words ending -bre or -tre: British spellings accoutre(ment), goitre, litre, lustre, mitre, nitre, reconnoitre, saltpetre, spectre, centre, titre; calibre, fibre,  sabre, and sombre all have -er in American spelling.  The ending -cre, as in acre, lucre, massacre, mediocre, is preserved in American English, to indicate the c is pronounced  rather than  .  After other consonants, there are not many -re endings even in British English: louvre, manoeuvre after -v-; meagre, ogre after -g-; euchre, ochre, sepulchre after -ch-.  In the U.S., ogre and euchre are standard; manoeuvre and sepulchre are usually maneuver and sepulcher; and the other -re forms listed are variants of the equivalent -er form.  
::  The e preceding the r is retained in U.S. derived forms of nouns and verbs, for example, fibers, reconnoitered, centering, which are, naturally, fibres, reconnoitred and centring respectively in British usage.  It is dropped for other inflections, for example, central, fibrous, spectral.  However such dropping cannot be regarded as proof of an -re British spelling: for example, entry derives from enter, which has not been spelled entre for centuries.
::  The difference relates only to root words; -er rather than -re is universal as a suffix for agentive (reader, winner) and comparative (louder, nicer) forms.  One consequence is the British distinction of meter for a measuring instrument from metre for the unit of measurement. However, while poetic metre is often -re, pentameter, hexameter, etc. are always -er.
