Talk:Yttrium(III) oxide

message: Dear all: in case I might have overstepped, the following statements were removed from this report on yttrium oxide:
*"Small amounts of the element (0.1 to 0.2%) have been used to reduce grain size of chromium, molybdenum, titanium, and  zirconium. It is also used to increase the strength of aluminium and magnesium alloys."
And the following statement is too vague to be useful, IMHO:
""It can also be used as a catalyst for ethylene polymerization." Define "it".
*"Any of a group of hard glassy minerals (silicates of various metals) used as gemstones and as an abrasive"

message: "Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation.  The Transhumanist 00:05, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Otterbein, Indiana

message: Users Kaleb988 and 76.214.139.213 (perhaps the same user) continue to edit a piece of information about Otterbein in these articles:
*Bolivar Township, Benton County, Indiana
*Benton County, Indiana
*Shelby Township, Tippecanoe County, Indiana
*Tippecanoe County, Indiana
The claim is that Otterbein is 3/4 in Benton and 1/4 in Tippecanoe.  However, this map from the U. S. Census clearly shows that it is about half-and-half.  While it seems to be true that more than half of the actual streets are in Benton, nevertheless the area defined by the city limits is about equally divided between the two counties.

Talk:Whitestown, Indiana

message: Does this information really belong in this article about Whitestown? I ask this for two reasons:
* As far as I can tell, this new land development is not inside of the town boundaries of Whitestown. "Whitestown" may be the city listed on the postal addresses for new houses in this development, however "A ZIP code's address and the "city" name written on the same line do not necessarily mean that that address is within that city." (from Zip Code)
* While this information is sourced, it does seem to read like an advertisement and the information about Anson Mills also seems to fail the notability guidelines.
If no-one objects I am going to remove this information.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.218.101.145 (talk) 18:27, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Joe Camel

message: I received your email, but it is more acceptable to discuss content on the article's talk page, so it is a public record and other editors can participate in the conversation. I do not own the article. My email is there more for personal requests, or sensitive or private matters.
I made some changes to your edits. There were a few issues I had with it:
* The wording made it sounds like Joe Chemo ads were published as advertisements in The New York Times and Adweek and other publications but we don't have reliable sources corroborating this. Adweek is an advertising trade publication and the NYT article was using the advertisement as a point of discussion in an article about Adbusters in 2012. None of the sources stated that Joe Chemo was published as an advertisement in other magazines.
* Generally trimmed the section. All mentions of the character I could find in reliable sources are brief and usually in a larger article about Adbusters or anti-smoking in general. Removed the personal stuff about Plous and put more emphasis on Adbusters as creating the subvert, as that's how sources describe it.
* Remove the JoeChemo.org stuff. The website is still linked at the bottom of the article. My issue with it is a self-published source claiming that Joe Chemo appeared in all these magazines, billboards, etc. but none of this is mentioned by any third-party. Not saying the website is lying, but it gives the impression of a much larger campaign than anyone else has described it as.

Talk:Borden, Indiana

message: I ran across this while working on James W. Borden (1810–1882) who was a judge in Indiana.
A John Borden who lived 1785–1824 and moved to Indiana in 1816. His son William W. was born in 1823. This is probably the one. But it would mean founding the school when he was 61, a bit old for that time?
Don't under estimate William W. Borden.  From the numerous historical sources I have read, this timeline falls right in line with the establishment of the Borden Institute.  There is an Indiana Historical marker provided by the Indiana Historical Bureau at the site of the Borden Institute that reads as follows: "Coeducational school founded 1884 by William W. Borden primarily to serve children of southern Indiana farmers." The marker provides additional information and I have a photo of it that I am working to upload to this Wikipedia page. Thank you for your input and sources, but the establishment by William W. Borden is factual and supported historically.

Talk:Neocons

message: Can someone explain to this relative newcomer why this article is considered a "stub"?  It serves mainly to refer the reader to "Neoconservatives" (actually "Neoconservativism") but I think it adds value by stating that the term "Neocons" itself is usually used in a critical way.  Expanding it would no doubt duplicate (or perhaps contradict) the information to be found at "Neoconservatives," neither of which is desirable, so inviting its expansion through the "Stub" label seems counterproductive to me.  I also find it interesting that searching on "Neocon" refers the reader to the "Neoconservativism" article while adding an "s" brings the reader here.  Does that make sense?

An image used in the article, specifically :Image:HEREFORE INLET LIGHTHOUSE.jpg, has a little bit of a licensing issue.

I would be expecting a list of all models along with sales numbers in order to give a better idea of what market they were really selling to. The cars often mentioned and shown in photos were ones which were in the product lineup for prestige but were only a small part of the sales.
