Talk:Jug wine

message: Not to sound like a smartass, but wouldn't a jug wine drinker be a wine drinker and find jug wines unpalatable?  If you don't wish to use the phrase 'wine snob' it's o.k. with me, but perhaps we should come up with a different phrase.  Yours truly and madly, --User:Two halves
:The stereotypical 'jug wine drinker' is of limited means and is drinking the wine for intoxication rather than flavor.  It is 1. one of the most inexpensive forms of commercially available alcohol (in terms of dollar per ounce of alcohol -- modify the units as you like) and is 2. dilute to a sort of ideal strength that allows rapid intoxication while making it difficult to achieve some of the more dramatic consequences of overconsumption.
::Actually, I know of some wineries that sell fairly high-quality wine in jugs, as a joke. I just uploaded a picture of one such winery's "refilling station" for customers who bring back their empty 1-liter jugs. ~Amatulić (talk) 01:45, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Which has made the article very confusing. I've never seen a jug of wine, so when I came to this page and saw the picture I thought "jug wine is a term for wine in a barrel?". Also, you say that this picture is of an uncommon joke occurrence, so it probably isn't very descriptive of the usual environment of jug wine. I doubt that we need to be adding pictures to illustrate the containers of things. I'm going to find a replacement. Snied (talk) 20:18, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That's fine. It was a picture I happened to have, and the article had none at the time, so I stuck it in. Also, nowhere did I say this picture is of an uncommon joke occurrence. I have no idea how common it is for wineries to sell high-quality wine in jugs. I do know of several wineries that do this. ~Amatulić (talk) 01:19, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, whatever; as you saw below, jug wine is associated with cheap wine in a jug container. A picture of expensive wine not in a jug container isn't particularly suitable. Snied (talk) 01:25, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Article series

message: I still am not convinced that several articles is better than one large article (in case the article really is about one single subject, such as the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict). What are really the benefits of having multiple articles? I don't find that the readability is impeded by an article being long; rather, it becomes one easy point of reference since you don't need to look in other articles for certain information, and the context that the surrounding information can provide a paragraph may also be very desirable. I did split up an article I'm actively contributing to (Speedrun), because it seems to be the default practice and it was asked for on the talk page, but I'd personally prefer monolithic articles over this approach. So maybe you could help me out here a little? I think that this project page should also address my question, since it doesn't really explain why pages need to be broken up sometimes. —msikma <user_talk:msikma> 07:53, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: For the most part, article series stem from the application of Wikipedia:Summary style. The idea is that an article that is just too long is dragged down by over detailing that is not necessarily linked to the overall topic. See for example the various subarticles of Baroque architecture (although that is not an official "article series", it is the same thing). The name might be inappropriate. If "article series" wasn't a standard element of these chronological templates and a few others, I don't think this page would even exist. Circeus 16:08, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unconvinced 

message: I am trying to rename the following three articles, so I can create a template and put them into a series. Unfortunately, I have made a bit of a mess of things.
Here is what I have tried (somewhat unsuccessfully) to do: 
1. Create a useful template "Canadianpetroleumhistory.
2. Rename the article "History of the petroleum industry in Canada, part one" to "History of the petroleum industry in Canada"
3. Rename the article "History of the petroleum industry in Canada, part two" to "History of the petroleum industry in Canada (Oil sands and heave oil)
4. Rename the article "History of the petroleum industry in Canada, part three" to "History of the petroleum industry in Canada (Frontier exploration and development)
5. Rename the article "History of the natural gas liquids industry in Canada" to "History of the petroleum industry in Canada (Natural gas liquids)
The idea is that at the end of this process this will be a series of articles about Canadian petroleum history, each referenced within the series in the manner of the History of Brazil.
Can someone help me, please? If you just fix the template and insert it properly into the first article, I will do the rest....

message: I think the entire trivia section should be deleted.  In fact, I am deleting it.  Here it is:
* One of the murders is left unexplained. Owen Taylor is found murdered in a car that has been pushed into the bay. Chandler was shocked to find later that he didn't know who the killer was.[2]
* Songs named after The Big Sleep exist by the New Wave rock band Simple Minds (on their popular album New Gold Dream), the third wave ska band Streetlight Manifesto, the Indiana band Murder by Death (on their third album entitled In Bocca al Lupo), the band Pull Tiger Tail (as a b-side on the 7" single Let's Lightning), the Alternative rock band The Only Ones and (very probably) others.
* The Coen brothers' film The Big Lebowski is loosely based on The Big Sleep.[3]
* The plot of Warren Ellis and JH Williams' graphic novel "Made in England," the first arc of Desolation Jones, is similar to The Big Sleep.[citation needed] Jones' client is a retired Army colonel who tells Jones to find a legendary pornographic film supposedly shot by none other than Adolf Hitler.
* A Mama's Family episode, in which Thelma dreams she is a detective, is titled "The Big Nap".
Neither the movie article gain reputability by loose association with pop culture of a different era.

Talk:Album (disambiguation)

message: The article Album says 
: The term record album ...is applied to any hard-pressed full length sound recording (including CD, Minidisc, and cassette.) 
In addition to needing a hyphen, "full-length" is vague & deserves an estimate of the minimum length that nearly all, say 95% of all albums exceed.  (Is it reasonable to try to come up with a maximum length of commercial albums in general distribution? Or at least an impressive example.  Or the length of a packaged set of The Ring of the Nibelung or a packaged Complete Works album might be just as valuable.) --Jerzy 02:16, 2004 Jan 11 (UTC)
I find the meaning of the word Album as described in this article very hard to reconcile with how the word is actually used today. I consider an album simply to be a collection of songs released together as a package, in whatever medium—Trevor Caira 16:40, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: The context of the opinion written by Elizabeth Spiers is both misleading and random. The citation, which I read, is her opinion of the airline industry and although she references the Southwest incident of December 2022, her article was not specifically about Southwest. In addition, the paraphrase of her statements (which was the first thing that struck me as odd) are out of context and not a good representation of what she actually said. There have been many, many opinions of this incident published online. Ms. Spiers article isn't a good example of public or media reaction. I don't know who chose that piece for this section, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was someone with a close connection to the writer. MandieJ1975 (talk) 22:06, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: At first glance, you seem to be correct. Unfortunately, I don't subscribe to the NY Times, so I am unable to read the article in question.

As with most articles on Wikipedia, this one is still being developed. Perhaps you can give us some ideas on what needs explaining. Thanks. - Rlvaughn 02:55, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Terms need explaining

message: The article's stated reason for closed communion is that Christ and the Apostles separated from the other disciples for the last supper. I think a better explanation is the disbelief in a universal church. If communion is limited to the church, and each church is independent (not part of some greater whole), then communion is limited to the members of the local body. That is the explanation I always heard - never heard anything about the Apostles and Christ separating from other disciples. 
If there are no responses, I'll update the article. My knowledge is limited to participation in ABA churches, not any official denominational documents. Leatherwing (talk) 19:27, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I am changing "Gospel missions" to "Gospel Missions" and the "Whitsitt controversy" to "Whitsitt Controversy". I think these are generally used as proper nouns/names of particular controversies or movements within the Southern Baptist Convention and therefore should be capitalized.

Talk:Self-deception

message: The counter-arguments (against self-deception theories) based on paradoxes (in section Paradoxes) appear to presuppose that the self-deceiver is otherwise logical person and will not attempt to hold mutually contradictory believes. This, however, is an unproven hypothesis that is contradicted by numerous anecdotal evidence. For instance, it was observed by George Orwell that some individuals are capable of that. He referred to it as "doublethink".
Another example is provided by the so-called Kettle logic. 
From a more theoretic perspective, a fully rational person whose inferences are free of fallacies would not be able to self-deceive without becoming irrational or illogical. However, there is nothing paradoxical about individuals who are irrational or illogical to hold mutually-contradictory believes, particularly if these individuals become defensive.
In other words, once one accepts a possibility of existence of individuals who are not fully rational and resort to fallacious inferences, or act defensively, the paradoxes (in section Paradoxes) fade away.
The said paradoxes are also invalidated by the fact that set theory, which is widely considered the foundation of modern mathematics, has no proof of its consistency. That leaves a mathematical possibility that mathematics does entail some mutually-contradictory theorems (that remain unknown to us at this time). Which means that despite the fact that the vast majority of mathematicians tent to be fully rational and very careful to not allow fallacies in their inferences, one cannot disprove that they all believe in mutually-contradictory statements - a fact known since Kurt Goedel's work some 100 years ago. Which leaves a mathematical possibility that they actually do believe in mutually-contradictory statements.
So, if mathematicians can believe in mutually-contradictory statements then there is nothing paradoxical about anyone else doing so.

replies: text: Also clearly neither is a work derived from the other. The image here has hair missing at the top of the head, which is in the Guardian image, so the Guardian image can't be derived from the one here. the one here has part of the right side of the face which isn't in the Guardian image, so the one here can't be derived from the Guardian image. Add in the different lighting and this being uploaded by a very keen Gore supporter who may well have been at that event and have taken the picture himself - though I doubt it.

The image here is less tightly cropped than the Guardian image at the sides and bottom (the mic portion was cropped out of the Guardian article, I think), which means that for ours to be derived from the one in the Guardian, the bottom portion of the jacket and the mic would have had to be reconstructed by hand. That's entirely possible technically (I could do it) but I don't see any signs of that sort of reconstruction in the image - and most people would leave signs, like repeated patterns from copy and paste or discontinuities in the suit fabric. More likely a common source for both or two different photos. Jamesday 01:47, 11 Jan 2004 (UTC)
