message: I suggest making a link/comment at the beginning of the article to Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. because WarnerMedia was spun off and merged with Discovery, Inc. on April 8, 2022.

thread_title:  Ownership history of WarnerMedia 

message: I just caught some obvious vandalism in the lead sentence which was inserted on 30 December 2021 from a now-blocked IP address. Apparently no one had caught it for over two years.  And that was just the first paragraph.  
The underlying problem seems to be that no one cares about Warner Bros. and their crummy movies ever since they lost Christopher Nolan to Universal Pictures.  So it looks like very few regular editors are monitoring this article and the vandals are running amok. This article needs to be permanently protected. Coolcaesar (talk) 14:43, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: You can submit a request for page protection at WP:RPP, not here. This article has been protected in the past (last one was in June 2021), though the issue you reverted doesn't seem to have been as directly harmful vandalism as you claim, with a change from "doing business as" to "traded as", which essentially convey/mean the same thing despite DBA being mainly the dominantly-used American term. External opinions aside, please take up the protection request at the dedicated page for it if you feel it is strongly desired/necessary. You are always welcome to contribute and cleanup this article yourself if you spot any further issues, and you can request for other contributors to help in editing at one of the WikiProjects which cover this article (Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Companies or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Media). I do not believe a permanent protection request is in order, though, as this article does not seem to have a clear history of systemic abuse that would warrant such an action, per the criteria addressed here, though I would still take it up with RPP and would advise requesting semi-protection instead, which is more likely to be accepted in the interim.

thread_title:  maximalism 

message: This section is rife with misrepresentations and inaccuracies.  
It omits notable mentions of actual scientific theories and problems that are clearly very important to Stephenson, as they recur throughout his work.
For instance, his use of waste heat in computing (Diamond Age), and cost of training a neural network (The Fall) are notable.
I am going to look to make minor edits to correct and clarify, as opposed to major, and others with a science or philosophy background, or, ideally both, should do the same.
Dukezhou (talk) 23:11, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm wondering, are there now sources covering this type of content? I'll admit that I haven't looked for a while, but as of several years ago, nobody was writing about the technology, philosophy, references, meanings, etc. in Stephenson's works. So if there are sources, I'm interested in checking them out. If there aren't sources, then unfortunately that sort of content would be inappropriate per WP:V and WP:OR. Woodroar (talk) 00:44, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

text: Hello Dukezhou and Woodroar. There is a 2006 collection of academic essays about Neal Stephenson and his fiction up through the Baroque Cycle, Tomorrow Through the Past: Neal Stephenson and the Project of Global Modernization edited by Jonathan Lewis, an English professor at Troy University (Alabama, not Çanakkale Province). I've linked to the Google Books preview, which has a detailed ToC and part of the index, as well as a helpful Preface containing a biography of Stephenson and detailed descriptions of each essay. The essays are not visible in the GB preview, but if this looks like a useful source of notable/reliable secondary research sources, I can contact the editor about making it available to you. We will need to agree on a file-sharing scheme. (You can ask @Root2702 on Twitter for a character reference.) Bridgman (talk) 21:35, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi ! Thanks for finding this! I should also mention that I recently got access to JSTOR through The Wikipedia Library to verify a sourced claim, and I now see that there are dozens of scholarly articles about Stephenson's works. I guess I just wasn't looking in the right place(s) before. The problem is that I currently don't have much free time to read them and summarize for this article. So I'm theoretically interested in Tomorrow Through the Past, but if I'm honest, I don't think I'd actually do anything with it. Sorry! Woodroar (talk) 22:19, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

message: It's not a gossip, the name really did come from the gun. The group revealed THAT, not the fact hat it does NOT come from a gun. They did so on the interview in polish public TV, TVP, chanell 2 if i recall well. I can't source it as a programme, but i could find a link to the part i speak about, because it was submitted to youtube, but then it's all in polish... Anyways, the fact is, Magik revealed during the interview, that while the name formerly was a gun reference, they later created more sophisticated explanation for it. So my former editions that were modified were correct. The same problem happened on polish wikipedia, were even tough i provided this source, the administrator prefered the unsourced original research claiming the name does not come from a gun, over the youtube or not, but still the video where group members in tv studio explain the truth behind the name. That's quite frustrating, but hey, people are people i guess, and you can't change it. E7th04sh (talk) 01:49, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Asymptotic gain model

message: I made the first revision of this article, but I'm not very satisfied with it. The model was found in course material from Holland; firstly a cource given by Catena Microelectronics, then a "book" by Verhoeven and others. Both these originated fact-wise from a PhD thesis by Ernst Nordholt, who later wrote the Catena course material. I wrote the article to aid my own understanding of the subject, hoping that others would later fill in.
Things that need to be checked or clarified: Is the term asymptotic gain model used elsewhere, or was it invented by Nordholt? How does the terminology and model relate to the works of Black? How is the model useful for design?
The "book" by Verhoeven and others was later made into a real book (), which is now for sale. I don't have it. Hopefully the dimension problems have been solved.

thread_title:  Revision 

message: Sorry but I couldn't really salvage the previous article so I rewrote it. The equations and symbols are all different, but I'm sure they refer to the same thing. I based my article on "Feedback Amplifier Principles" by Rosenstark and various other IEEE papers, especially those by Middlebrook. There's still alot content that needs to be added (e.g. an article on return ratio and an example would be nice), so help would be appreciated. Roger 20:07, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rewrote the article 

message: :"Besides their usefulness for complicated circuits, numerical simulations are helpful in checking formulas. When a lot of algebra is involved, doubts arise that resulting formulas are error free. A way to check algebraic formulas is to put them into a spreadsheet and compare the results with a numerical simulation."
Good advice, but equally applicable to any circuit theorem. -Roger (talk) 19:40, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Roger; Maybe you can help me with this. The reason I put this here is that I found finding T, G_0 and G_00 was a real pain, due possibly to my propensity for algebraic error. On the other hand, I found using the small-signal circuits in SPICE to implement the the listed steps was awfully easy. So I found the errors in my algebra this way. The uniqueness of this example is probably the need to follow a sequence of steps - its not just y=x^2.
Brews ohare (talk) 19:47, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep, the math does get messy, real fast. I've found the best way to check results is by doing a symbolic analysis with SapWin. That way you end up with an expression you can compare with your own and know for sure if yours is right. -Roger (talk) 20:39, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Managed Deletion/Voting

message: It would be funny, if it weren't so sad, to see people voting "No" because they believe that they are opposing power for administrators.  The proposal does not give administrators additional powers.  This is clear beyond doubt.  However, the alternative, having anyone vote, is not something I can support, but let me tell you why.
#The system is set up so that any "keep" vote immediately sends an article to VfD.
#The system is set up so that only two keep votes sends the page directly to Clean Up.
#If voting is open to everyone, the authors of the articles will presumably wish them kept and vote accordingly.  Therefore, it would be a zero sum attempt.
#If voting were open to all but authors, I suspect that the more clever authors would create nonce accounts or call upon their friends to vote "keep," and the page would be zero sum again.
So, if we want universal voting, then we can't, I think, have the "any dissent equals VfD or CU" provision.  Instead, it would have to be "any dissent means VfD."  That reduces the proposal to the level of a change in VfD practices whereby unanimous named-account delete votes in X time equal quick removal and deletion.  Again, that's not a problem with me, but it doesn't really do much with handling these obvious deletes in a discreet manner, which is what I hoped for, and it still leaves us with a cumbersome process that political campaigners, for example, can exploit.

I suggest the following: articles eligible for "managed deletion"  (silly, harmful, nonencyclopedic) are moved to subpages that are seen only by logged in users and are not mirrored and banned from web crawler bots.

:Can we really say something like that? His cause and motivation were nothing like those of many suicide bombers, especially those popularly considered in current events. Additionally, I don't know that we could draw any sort of line between the two - I wouldn't say there is an apparent connection between (for example) suicide bombers in the Palestine-Israeli conflict and this bombing. He may be the first documented case of someone who died in a bombing, perhaps intentionally, but proclaiming him first may be an oversight (given that suicidal intentions are hard to determine after the fact, when the bomber is dead)  and saying he is the father of all suicide bombers would be a terribly sweeping claim, with implications that may not be true or accurate. 149.43.x.x 22:37, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
