Talk:Ken Batcher

message: Hillis's book calls Batcher "the original massively parallel hacker". Can somebody find the citation? Thanks. Kiefer.Wolfowitz (talk) 01:20, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: While I see Danny once a month, it would help to know which of Danny's books you refer.  Yes Danny hacks, but I'm not even certain that Ken is invited to the Hackers Conference.  Thinking about it, probably others before Ken could claim the massively parallel before him (Dave Kuck could be asked).  Ken just had a machine using that phrase before others. 198.123.51.178 (talk) 21:26, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's Hillis's book on the Connection Machine (MIT Press, of course!), which has a very nice and honorific salute to Batcher as a "hacker". I don't know whether Batcher could be described as a hacker, but his colleague Paul Wang made a contribution to the Hacker's Dictionary!  Kiefer.Wolfowitz (talk) 22:31, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Cleanup 

message: I went to Banbury School (then Banbury Grammar School) from 1947 until 1953 and it was always a mixed school.  It was never called Stanbridge Hall during my time there.  My sister also went there when it was Banbury County School.Oyster24 (talk) 07:17, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  School Name 

message: I'm not sure this can still be described as 'new' as much of the work seems to have been completed in 2009.
A few other points based on my experience as a pupil at the then Banbury School in the 1970's:
1. Back then, there were indeed 3 'halls' on the site for Years 7-11: 
* Stanbridge Hall (the former grammar school)
* Broughton Hall (a former girls school)
* Wykham Hall (a former boys school)
and then there was the Upper School, a collection of newer buildings (early 1960's perhaps?) that sat roughly at the centre of the site, for Years 12-13. 
There was extensive use of shared facilities across the site - the woodwork and metalwork shops were attached to Wykham Hall, the home economics kitchen was in Broughton Hall, the language lab was in the Upper School, the athletics field was behind Stanbridge Hall, while the gymnasium and tennis courts were next to Broughton Hall.
2. The 'new' V-shaped building, may have been built to 'replace' Stanbridge Hall (and named after it?), but is actually far closer to the site of the demolished Wykham Hall, while the old Stanbridge Hall has been redeveloped and is now the site of an elder care facility.
3. Thankfully, the school has retained almost all of the extensive grounds/playing fields that I recall from my time there.
However, I'm not sure where I can find reliable sources for my recollections.

Talk:Adalbert of Egmond

message: There appears to be a doublet or alternative version of this article under the odd title Levita Adalbert (as if Levita were his first name ?). I'll redirect and for the time being, transfer the text of the article here. Feel free to merge, but I must stress that neither article is based on sources after the 19th century, though this one looks more up-to-date (and longer). For what it's worth, a quick Google search turned up these sources:
*Costambeys, Marios. "Adalbert   (supp. fl. early 8th cent.)." Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. September, 2004.  (always recommended)
*Acta Sanctorum, June 7 (Antwerp, 1709), 94–110. Probably includes the (only?) edition of the tenth-century vita.
*Levison, W. "Wilhelm Procurator von Egmond." Neues Archiv 40 (1916): 793–804.
*Andriessen, P. Sint Adelbert, patroon von Egmond (1964).

Talk:Æthelburh of Wilton

message: The evidence that Æthelburh existed is very weak. She has been accepted by some historians, such as David Farmer in the Dictionary of Saints, but his sources are 17th and 19th century. Sarah Foot (Veiled Women, II, pp. 221-37) dates the foundation of Wilton as 10th century and dismisses the claim that it was founded earlier as a 14th century fabrication. Biographies of King Ecgberht, supposed to be her brother, do not mention her. As she is so minor and her existence is so dubious, I suggest changing this article to a redirect to Wilton Abbey#Foundation. Dudley Miles (talk) 13:54, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Endemism in the Hawaiian Islands

message: This article sounds too conversational. It lacks the formal tone of an encyclopedia. 
"Distance—remoteness—is a filter. And of those germs of life that occasionally made it through, how many found their way into a suitable microclimate? Whether a seed or spore attached to a lost migrating bird's feather or an insect falling out of the high winds, put there by a storm in its homeland—of these, how many found a place to survive and whatever else was needed to reproduce?" 
This quote demonstrates how conversational the article is. I'm not an expert, but putting forward questions, then answering them sounds too casual.

message: I have removed a picture of Mount Kukenan, a neighbouring tepui to Mount Roraima, because Kukenan is entirely in Venezuelan territory and its presence was not justified in an article about a Brazilian state, even if a nearby one. There is not even the excuse that the picture was taken from the top of Mount Roraima, because as anyone who has seen a map of the mountain area can attest, only a very small part of Mount Roraima is in Brazilian territory, and that is to the east, while Kukenan is to the west.
In other words, Kukenan is not visible from the Brazilian part of Mount Roraima - remember, being a tepui, Mount Roraima is not a peak, but rather a wide tabletop mountain. So, the picture could only have been taken from the mountain's western edge - that is, either from the Venezuelan (more likely) or the Guyanian part. So, the picture was not taken from the Brazilian state of Roraima, and did not show any part of it either. This is why I thought it should be removed.
