:Sorry, but no.  The purpose of the "external links" section is to supply readers with links which are directly concerning the subject.  They should better illustrate the theme or, perhaps, expand it or provide further information.  Ivanovo IT Community website is none of these things.  It is loosely related, but so would be a link to any forum where the residents of Ivanovo discuss their mutual interests.  If you are willing to write an article on Information technology industry in Ivanovo (see Wikipedia:Article development for pointers on how to best do that), the link could probably go there.
:Please take a look at Wikipedia's external links guideline to see what kind of links the "external links" section should normally contain.  Meanwhile, I'll be removing the link for the time being.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 13:15, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Scent of Mystery

message: I saw the film at the Cinestage theatre in Chicago.  The odors were distrbuted by tubing running along the backs of the seats, so the scents were 'in your face', so to speak, rather than being released through the theatre's ventilating system.
Every time a scent was released, the viewer could hear the sound of the operating system, like air escaping from a tire.
In the basement of the theatre, where the rest rooms were located, was an walled-off area, enclosed by colorful plexiglass panels, that contained the machinery.  On my visit, an elderly woman attendant was there, and her job was apparently to open envelopes of the scented powder (or liquid) into hoppers which were synchronized with the film to deliver the scents on cue.  It didn't seem like a particularly sophisticated system.
The entire basement STUNK to high heaven!  Not unpleasant but REALLY strong, like all of the scents combined.
After the feature's run, the tubing and the panelled area in the basement remained in place for several years, as if waiting patiently for the next 'Smellie', which, of course, never came.
Much later, the Cinestage and its twin theatre the Michael Todd were restored to their original appearance and their original names Selwyn and Harris respectively.  During the remodelling, if not earlier, one assumes that the Smell-O-Vison equipment was removed.76.247.165.208 (talk) 14:00, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

:*Comment: my reasoning for deletion (and one I supposed I should have put in the prod) was that the information would be hard to verify - it appears that this "Scoogle" is an in-house thing only, not a product/service developed there and released to the academic community at large, and thus would likely not be the subject of third-party published works. ~Matticus TC 12:50, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

message: The article states in its first paragraph,"Literally, the term means "School of Higher Vocational Education". 
I thought that "ammatti" meant profession or trade and that vocation was kutsu. There is no 'koulutus' featured there either, just 'koulu'.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jatrius (talk • contribs) 20:00, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, "vocation" is actually most often used in spiritual contexts. However, the English language uses "vocational education" to describe the phenomenon we Finns call ammattikoulutus. There is no semantic one-to-one-relationship between the two languages. The English-speaking world has so different educational system that almost all Finnish terminology can be only incompletely translated. I think that the "literal" translation is rather good. Word "trade education" would not be English nor would it give a correct idea about the meaning of the term. --MPorciusCato 05:50, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

text: I think you have mixed up AMK and the ammattikoulu. You do not learn plumbing or practical electrics at the AMK, that's for ammattikoulu (or, officially, ammattioppilaitos) which is standardly translated as "vocational school". (E.g. MOT dictionary) Ammattikoulu is a secondary school specializing for the training of trades. For example, practical nurses (perushoitaja) and electricians are trained there. On the other hand, the AMK is an institution of tertiary level, training for example nurses and electrical engineers. The root of the word is korkeakoulu. The root form korkeakoulu (lit. high school) means in Finnish language an "school of higher education". Adding the word ammatti, should cause the translation to be "school of higher vocational education" (or maybe professional education, if you prefer). The actual word-for-word translation is of course professiona high school but that carries an entirely wrong meaning. After all, the AMK is a college-level institution. --MPorciusCato 05:46, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

message: i would like to point out here that the section on criticism of saying ya Muhammad is not up to the standards and does not even try to get a clear message out. 
it starts with "Some of Sunni sects said" which comes only from Wahhabi/salafi faction. No one else.
Further, "he difference between the 2 schools of thought being that the Sunni school considers this as invoking Allah" again here instead of using "some of Sunni sects" like above, it says Sunni school of thought as if the entire Sunni school of thought is against saying ya Muhammad or ya Ali which is totally wrong. Sunnis and Shia both say ya Ali, ya Muhammad except the Wahhabi faction among Sunnis. this section is passing the ideology of wahhabi faction as the ideology of entire sunni islam and that is wrong.
