Talk:Counterfeit banknote detection pen

message: I believe this whole article is about a user's belief on whether or not they are effective.  Wiki is not for personal opinions, and this article violates that.
Jmlk17 20:10, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Reviewing the article and adding in a few further edits, I believe it is now NPOV. I do, incidentally, wonder if the article might be better off describing counterfeit pens in general and then mentioning the brand names for the dollar version and euro version, rather than saying they are for dollars, but there is also a euro version. If there are no objections, I will remove the NPOV tag and also reorganize the article slightly. Balancer 21:47, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Additional References

message: The final paragraph in this article mentioned the acidity of lemon juice on a napkin producing a "false positive" when tested with an iodine pen.  This was wrong in three ways: not only is there no discussion anywhere on the Internet about the use of lemon juice (specifically) to treat a napkin (the examples that exist are for vitamin C in solution), the result would have been a false negative, not a false positive, and such a treatment would never be applied to a napkin, it would be applied to a counterfeit bill.  AND there is nothing about the acidity of the lemon juice that would have done this: it is the effect of 'vitamin c that prevents the reaction of the iodine pen to the starch that produces the  false negative when that treatment is used on a counterfeit note.  So make that four ways this was wrong.  I have now fixed it, but man, what a mess that was.  A loose necktie (talk) 02:29, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Mesmerization

message: I removed this nonsense, it is breaking the NPOV and basic sanity check:
:Mesmerization refers to a state of collective obedience and faith to codes of behavior that have been brought about by the worldwide dominance of the western media and its lifestyle values, made ubiquitous by the potency of its cultural and commercial memes.
:These influences control the motivational drivers underpinning the global psyche. Together with the concept of Globalization, Mesmerization sits at the heart of our current dilemmas; social unrest, inequality, poverty and the threat of climate change.
:The term, Mesmerization, was first used by the writer, Gee Thomson, in the book, 'Mesmerization', 'The Visual Spells that control behavior'.

thread_title: Refs

message: I suggest that we add an external link to the dmoz page for tendinitis:  http://www.dmoz.org/Health/Conditions_and_Diseases/Musculoskeletal_Disorders/Tendonitis/
The Wikipedia guideline for external links to be considered says: “A well-chosen link to a directory of websites or organizations. Long lists of links are not acceptable. A directory link may be a permanent link or a temporary measure put in place while external links are being discussed on the article's talk page. Many options are available; the Open Directory Project is often a neutral candidate, and may be added using the  template.”
I am suggesting it here on the talk page rather than adding it myself because I have a potential Wikipedia conflict of interest:  I am an author of one of the sites listed on the dmoz tendonitis page (AchillesTendon.com).

thread_title:  Chemistry Teacher? 

message: I can't seem to find any reference to the whistling man - every time he had to say the letter 'S' he inadvertently whistled through his teeth. So inevitably he ended up having to say it a lot. For example, ordering "special sweet & sour sauce" from a chinese takeaway, or reading out his will including "sterling silver salad servers" or "sixty shiny sovereigns" or "single surviving sailing standard" etc. Can anybody remember what he was called?

thread_title:  Whistling man? 

message: Surely the 'The Sawdust Pensioner' (what kind of a name is that for a character anyway?) is actually a stereotypical school janny rather than some random OAP? I'm not as old as the writers of Chewin' the Fat but I still remember the janitor from my school turning up wielding a bucket of sawdust whenever something had been spilled or, more usually, someone had been sick. If that's not the joke (i.e. school jannies thinking that every problem can be fixed with the liberal application of sawdust) then the character would make about as much sense as the current summary on the article page does e.g. bugger all. 62.189.108.219 (talk) 15:22, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Goblin

message: The introduction states that goblins are "greedy, especially for gold and jewelry." This Wikipedia entry is used by quite a few Harry Potter fans to claim that the portrayal of goblins in the Harry Potter franchises as "greedy, money-hoarding, hook-nosed bankers" is in line with "traditional European folklore".
But this claim has no citations at all, and it isn't elaborated on later in the text, either. Thus, this passage should be either removed or given citations - if any can be found. We shouldn't want this entry to become a culture war talking point if we cannot provide proper citations.

message: The article was out of date and in need of a major edit.  I removed sections for Locations by year as the text was easily incorporated into the section Locations.

The Controversy section seems to be not needed as controversial events need to be put into a context of being notable within the scope of the article with a neutral point of view.

message: I could use a bot to transform all wojewoda -ski into ilinked voivode of ... - i.e. look for all articles which have the string wojewoda krakowski and change it to Voivode of Kraków, and do the same for all 35 voivodes (and check every month or so if any new articles have been created which need replacement). Similar process should be employed for most of the titles listed at Offices in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (we are slowly creating appopriate articles for every position). Second, as all those 'voivode of...' pages redirect to 'voivodship of...' pages which are supposed to list the voivodes, it would be great if the bot could list (here?) all the links it created which are not linked back (something like the Mathbot does, but without categories).

Wouldn't it make more sense to link these directly to the articles on the Commonwealth Voivodeships?  I'd like to go ahead and change it, but in this instance, I want to get opinions first.   71.126.140.136 (talk) 01:52, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
