Talk:Protocol Independent Multicast

message: Should multicast link to IP Multicast in this case, too? Guess so.  --SymlynX
PIM does not include its own topology discovery mechanism, but instead uses routing information supplied by other traditional routing protocols such as Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).  the traditionnal routing protocols are mainly OSPF or RIP in intradomain and MBGP with MSDP in interdomain....

message: In connection with the suggestion that this page and PIM-SM should be merged; I would say NO.  As the article says, PIM-SM is the most popular form, but there are four kinds of PIM, and merging all four into one article would be a big task and lead to an article which was probably too long to be easily digested and not that helpful to readers (please move this comment if it is in the wrong place).

Talk:Wine lake

message: Around 2005, someone made up a neologism to refer to an alleged overproduction of wine in the EU (especially in France), and that neologism became the title of this article. The "Plan Bordeaux" proposal seems to have fizzled, as I can't find any further sources discussing it. If they have too much wine, why not just export some? Is it just undrinkable low-quality swill? If so, then why do they keep producing it – is some kind of government production subsidy involved? Good quality French wine fetches very high prices! Does this perceived surplus still exist? The information in the article all seems at least a decade old, and the sourcing seems minimal. —BarrelProof (talk) 02:44, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

replies: text:  I agree with the deprodding of the article, but I'm not sure about its scope. The glut in wine production in the EU from 15 years ago is a well-known moment (that's still getting referenced from time to time: example), and it certainly deserves to be covered somewhere. But should this article be about this particular period, or should it extend to cover all wine oversupply issues associated with the EU's Common Agricultural Policy over the previous decades, or should it exactly match the scope of the title and cover oversupply of wine in general? – Uanfala (talk) 12:52, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

message: Hopefully, someone will be able to add a history of the development this unusual game. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 03:45, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: History

message: I agree with the request for some history of the game, and also a more detailed description.  
For example, what is the purpose of the bumpers?  Are they merely obstacles?  Or do they figure into the play in some way (as the shaker bottle does, in bottle pool)?  Are there any rules governing when the bumpers may and may not be contacted?  Penalties or fouls involving misuse of the bumpers?
Also, I grew up on the east coast of the US, and a very popular tavern in my home town (still there) had a bumper pool table and (at least in my dad's day) a league.  But their bumper pool table was neither rectangular nor octagonal, it was square.  Nor is it the only square table I saw -- I encountered two others, in widely separated parts of New York State.  So, it seems like a third shape should be added to the description.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.249 (talk) 01:15, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Johanna van Gogh-Bonger

message: A prod tag was added to the article (two minutes after a raw stub was created).  I removed it.  Johanna van Gogh-Bonger played a very important role in establishing the fame of Van gogh through her editing of his letters and through lending works for early exhibitions.  As Van Gogh's works now attract extraordinarily high prices at auction, the history of how the market for his work was established is an important topic.  There is already a large amount of material on Vincent, with subsidiary articles such as Posthumous fame of Vincent van Gogh, Vincent van Gogh chronology, and Vincent van Gogh's medical condition, and articles on other figures connected to the artist, such as Paul Gachet.  In this context I believe an article devoted to Johanna is entirely justified. Stumps 11:02, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Perry Edward Smith

message: Perry Smith had no reason to slaughter the Clutter family like he did, I mean as portrayed in the film Capote he spoke about how he thought the father was nice and then somehow ended up cutting his throat, that's just cruel he deserved the punishment of hanging.I don't know about that Dick hickock, he was a partner to the crime but technically did practically nothing.
::Interestingly enough, if you read In Cold Blood you'll find the roles exactly reversed; it was allegedly Hickock who orchestrated the murder and persuaded Smith to go through with it-- Smith had previously made plans to meet up with an old prison buddy, but upon arriving to visit him found that his friend had left five hours prior-- thus leaving Perry feeling that it was Dick's "score" (what Hickock enthusiastically dubbed the murder) or nothing. I do agree though that the film portrayals of the two killers were suspiciously black-and-white, with one being the cold-hearted tough guy and the other the sensitive, misunderstood genius in the wrong place at the wrong time.

message: Caveat Lector, ABP's inspector produces a damning report on the Bellinaboy refinery application: 
"From a strategic planning perspective, this is the wrong site; from the perspective of Government policy which seeks to foster balanced regional development, this is the wrong site; from the perspective of minimising environmental impact, this is the wrong site; and consequently, from the perspective of sustainable development, this is the wrong site. At a time when the Board is now required, in accordance with the Local Government (Planning and Development) Act, 2000, to have regard to the proper planning and sustainable development of an area in which a development is proposed to be constructed, it is my submission that the proposed development of a large gas processing terminal at this rural, scenic, and unserviced area on a bogland hill some 8 kilometres inland from the Mayo coastland landfall location, with all its site development works difficulties, public safety concerns, adverse visual, ecological, and traffic impacts, and a range of other significant environmental impacts, defies any rational understanding of the term “sustainability”. It is an irony that this large industrial proposal is linked with a natural gas resource, the exploitation of which adheres to the concept of sustainability."
A Minister dismisses ABP's refusal as "just a hitch". Shell's executives meet with Ahern and other ministers, which wins them a meeting with ABP's board. Suddenly, the "wrong site" becomes the perfect site. You work it out. Start here: http://www.publicinquiry.ie/pdf/Fiosru_2_HI_RES_Final.pdf.
