Talk:Charles R. Schwab

message: I've added some info about Schwab having dyslexia. I'm aware of the fact that this might be libellous stuff and I cited a reliable source (a New York Times article). I didn't link to a URL to the article - it's archived at the Times web site and the full text is only available for a fee. It looks like the article is available at Dyslexia Adults, but I'm not sure if they had permission to reproduce it and I didn't want to link to a copyright violation. --Jtalledo (talk) 23:54, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Beglopopovtsy

message: Labelling a certain church or religious movement heretical is mostly a rather controversial thing to do. Some may think the teachings a church or movement holds are a heresy, some others may not. Who has got the unquestionable authority to decide on what is a heresy and what isn't? It's obvious that one is dealing with a very delicate matter.
I for one am opposed to categories having anything to do with heresies, because one is bound to make subjective and arguable evaluations with which others are bound to disagree. In fact, I think that such categories are irrelevant. --Vasilij 19:20, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Avicularia avicularia

message: I was just reading through a few papers on this species and thought it might be a good idea to add some more information on its reproduction and life cycle, as this has been quite well studied and may help with identification at different life stages. A paper by Stradling describes the ages of sexual maturity for each gender, annual female molting after maturity, and the key color changes for each stage of the life cycle. The article by Cloudsley‐Thompson and Constantinou that has already been cited also includes some pertinent information on diurnal rhythms for this species, which might help to bulk up the behavioral information provided. Furthermore, the article describes how desert and tropical tarantula species, such as this one, that have different feeding patterns based on time of day/night. Finally, a reference might be needed for the rumored communal behavior of this species, as this might be misleading if not backed-up with more evidence.

Talk:Push dagger

message: Since a push dagger and push knife are essentially the same thing, one article should be merged into the other. Willbyr (talk | contribs) 19:43, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

message: The article makes a handful of uncited claims about the push dagger's performance ("Aids in extraction and agitation", "nearly impossible to dislodge from the fist of a determined adversary", "virtually invisible" in the hand), then concludes that "due to these factors, the push dagger is considered highly dangerous, and its possession has been banned..."  
The "advantages" are uncited, plus the conclusion that they're the reasons for legal restrictions constitutes a synthesis (and an unconvincing one, IMO--the rationale for banning push knives is probably closer to the reason switchblades, butterfly knives, and "assault weapons" have faced bans:  they look different from "ordinary" weapons/tools, and that scares some people).  In the absence of citations, I think it's best to drop the info completely.  Elmo iscariot (talk) 15:03, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Reasons for legal restrictions 

message: Of course, any blade can be used for any task that requires cutting, and the blade in the picture is not double edged and has a gut hook, which is for hunting.  It is inaccurate to say that a push dagger is only for fighting, as it depends on whether or not a person actually uses it for fighting.  The design of the push dagger allows a large amount of leverage while using a small blade, and so well suited to all tasks.

message: Since John says he'd like to "add a new number to his repertoire", a reasonable, sexually-experienced person would infer that the new number -- a number that destroyed his mouth's ability to even play a decent single-note on his saxophone at the episode's ending -- was a sexual act that involved his mouth. I've played tenor sax, and lemme tell you, having straight intercourse does not even come close to destroying one's ability to play a note, even if one went at it all night.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.30.142.95 (talk) 02:45, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Student Awards Agency for Scotland

message: The figures in this article are a little out of date and need updating.
This article reads like it came from the SAAS website .  It is very pro-SAAS in its stance .  It makes no mention of the various controversies that have surrounded this funding body (A bit unfair, it is Parliment that sets policy, SAAS only carries it out).  For example, the controversy surrounding the "Graduate Endowment".  It has been called by some a Graduation Tax.  This is denied by the Scottish Executive.  But when a government demands payment in exchange for the services they have (or claimed to have) rendered , then that is a tax .  To avoid paying it all one needs to do is fail (yes, because you have recieved no benefit from going to university).  Therefore it is a tax on graduation QED I have corrosponded with the SAAS on this matter extensively and, after backing them into a corner, I got them to admit that the term "Graduate Endowment" was rather misleading .  An endowment is after all, usually something one receives (not necessarily, it is also something one pays into, which is what one does with the GE).  My opinion, and this isn't wiki-worthy , is that the Graduate Endowment is in fact a Graduation Tax, and the government deliberately splits hairs to try and conceal this because it would be an unpopular policy (no, it was made clear when it was being initially discussed. There was a consultation document sent out, and it was widley discussed in the media).  It is yet another case of the government abusing the "Rich Student Myth" (On average graduates do earn more than non-graduates, but not all do).  I have been a student for 5 years and I live in poverty!  It is like calling Gay Marriage a Civil Partnership.  They just change the name to ensure a policy that would otherwise meet resistance can slide through . 134.36.58.55 10:30, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Charles Armstrong (ethnographer)

message: Wikipedia's official policy states that:
"Only those articles where there is no remotely plausible assertion of notability should be considered for Wikipedia:Speedy deletion."
Since a Wikipedia administrator (Royboycrashfan) has previously judged the subject of the article to be notable and removed the article's "Candidate for Speedy Deletion" status, it's hard to argue that there are no remotely plausible grounds to assert notability. Reapplying "Canditate for Speedy Deletion" to the article seems to be somewhat at odds with Wikipedia policy.
Furthermore Wikipedia's guidelines on notability include the provision:
"The person has been the primary subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the person."
Since the subject meets this condition there is a clear case that the requirements for notability are satisfied.

Talk:Torna atrás

message: Just a comment: This term, "tornatras", has a different meaning in Spanish. Perhaps in Philippines you had change the original meaning.
In Spanish, "tornatrás" means usually http://buscon.rae.es/draeI/SrvltGUIBusUsual?LEMA=tornatr%C3%A1s
a person of very mixed racial origin, that shows very clearly the racial characters of just one ot their racial antecessors. For example, a very mixed descendant of white and black, whose characters are of a pure black person.
But in the dictionary also appears "tornatrás" used in Mexico with a very particular meaning, I suppose they applied the word to a different meaning, as you did in Philippines. In Mexico "tornatrás" is the descendant of: 
european + black 
= mulato
european + mulato
= morisco
european + morisco
= albino
european + albino 
=tornatras
So, in Mexico a "tornatras" would be a person with all european antecessors, but a black great-great-grandfather.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.14.104.217 (talk) 12:19, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
