Talk:Travis Kvapil

message: The bit about his CTS title is confusing. Does it mean he hadn't lead the championship until the final race (and if so, why was this controversial?) or that the results were changed after the original final results were given?
:Basically what happened was this. Kvapil was competing for the championship against two other drivers, and was third points at the final race. During the race, a teammate of one of his challengers crashed and took out the points leader. Later that driver (the one whose teammate wrecked) was penalized for a rules infraction, and Kvapil won the championship. Part of the reason why this was controversial was that Kvapil had just one win that season, and that win was seemingly handed to him, much like the championship. Hope this helps. --D-Day What up?

thread_title:  Request for a full change 

message: Requesting "2 years:2 years,3 years:3 years," to be added at the end, right before the "indefinite:indefinite". The reason for this is to prevent weird entries like this from appearing in block logs. What this change would do is that it'd use the actual text "2 years" as an alias for the somewhat inconsistent timespan of 2 years according to MediaWiki; if it appears in ipboptions, it uses that text as an alias (even if it's typed out), similar to how "31 hours" is used now (if it wasn't there, it would appear as "1 day and 7 hours").

thread_title: German

message: I made a correction to this article. Formerly, it incorrectly stated that these words were imperative mood, when they aren't. If they were imperative, they would be commands directed to a second person, meaning "You live!" as if to instruct the object to live. These are subjunctive expressions -- they convey the wish of the speaker that the second person would live (a long life). "May he live (long)" is a better understanding.

:I believe that supporters are assumed to be holding the shield unless otherwise specified. If their hands are holding something else then that is described in the blazon. For instance, if a man on the right of the shield was holding a sword in his hand furthest from the shield it might be described as "On the sinister a man holding in the exterior hand a sword" and his other hand is assumed to be on the shield. --NormanEinstein July 6, 2005 19:58 (UTC)

message: I rewrote this:
That is, an algorithm can often be made more sensitive at the risk of introducing more false positives, or it can be made more restrictive, at the risk of rejecting true positives. 
Took this out:
The risk of Type I errors must be balanced against the risk of Type II errors (false negatives which fail to reject the null hypothesis when it is false). 
And Rewrote this:
(Threshold) can be used to vary the tradeoff of an algorithm of how close a match to a given sample must be achieved before the algorithm reports a match. The higher this threshold, the fewer false positives and the more false negatives.

thread_title: Tradeoffs

message: There has been a simple error of juxtaposition here which I have corrected..  False positive (the error of accepting something that should have been rejected) is a type II error. False negative (the error of rejecting something that should have been accepted) is a type I error. See, for example, Moulton, R.T., "Network Security", Datamation, Vol.29, No.7, (July 1983), pp.121-127:
:The appropriate access control device may be difficult for the user to define. It must be capable of rejecting imposters while having a minimal rate of rejecting authorized users (Type I error). It must also have a high rate of accepting authorized users and a low rate of accepting imposters (Type II error).
I have also adjusted the redirections so that now has type I error to False negative; and Type II error to false positive. Once my piece on Four types of error is finished, and it will be finished very soon, the entire issue will be very plainLindsay658 08:07, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Tantum ergo

message: The Catholic Encyclopedia article cited predates Vatican II and does not describe modern liturgical practice.  We need a post-Vatican II source. 
Answer: No, we don't. Vatican II was a complete disaster, is increasingly being recognized as such, is thus passing away, and will in fifty years be widely acknowledged as a pitiful experiment of the 1960s.
Alternate Response: If one is following prior liturgical practice (Usus Antiquior / extraordinary form), as permitted following Vatican II, then the article is correct. If one is following modern liturgical practice (not found however in the documents of Vatican II), the Tantum Ergo may be replaced by another suitable Eucharistic hymn during Benediction.
