Talk:Interstate 695 (New York)

message: Would it be a good idea to merge this into Interstate 295? It is officially part of I-295, and it doesn't really serve any independent utility. --NE2 14:51, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: While both internal NYSDOT referencing and the FHWA consider this as I-295 (see the total lengths), I-695 is clearly signed as a different route and I-695 is all the general public sees. Note that the Cross Bronx Extension appears to be a state-maintained internally unnumbered road (it is not 295I nor is it a reference route). The exit numbering for I-295 follows the Cross Bronx, however. Bottom line is, I'm unsure about how best to handle this. Merging might be ok but I generally prefer to have separate articles for routes that are signposted differently. --Polaron | Talk 15:26, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi,
The map currently shows the corridor incorrectly positioned; it should run along South Street, about a mile north of where it currently is shown crossing central Philly. This is a substantive difference, as the neighborhood it is (incorrectly) shown as running through is very different from the one it was actually supposed to run through; this also contradicts the article text. Could someone with more familiarity with how to edit the maps correct this, please? Thank you!

Isn't it a bit strong to say that the view is pseudoscientific if only a single article published in a communications journal states so?
Also considering that the Wikipedia article “Transgender People in Sports” provides numerous examples of articles advocating the physical advantage of trans women.

message: The Howard Associations were more extensive than implied by the article. The Howards were local voluntary relief societies in several cities, with no institutional ties and united only by sharing the name. The first Howard Association that I can document was formed in New Orleans in 1837, but I believe that there were others even earlier. I have found little literature describing their activities, so adequate coverage may require what Wikipedia regards as anathema, Original Research. For what it may be worth, here is a starting point: Peggy Bassett Hildreth, ″Early Red Cross: The Howard Association of New Orleans, 1837–-1878,″ Louisiana History: The Journal of the Louisiana Historical Association, vol. 20, no. 1, pp. 49-75 (1979).

replies: text: The problem is that the lanthanide halides generally have virtually no chemistry in their own right.  It's a bit like writing about the chemistry of Na+ under NaCl.  The halides just fall off in soln.  Regarding your idea, I recommend an alternative tactic - start a subsection in the MRI site on Gd chelate complexes.  Otherwise every darned metal ion is going to require a section on their chelates, which would gut most articles.  Or, perhaps more collegially, why not pose the problme in the Chemistry talk site so that WE-Chem experts can kick around ideas.  One of the WE-Chem experts is a lanthanide enthusiast.  --Smokefoot 22:12, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

text: Thanks for bringing this up.  I haven't come to look at anything in the Wikipedia linking paramagnetism and NMR, which is similar to this.  I think it is mainly Gd(III) compounds that are used as paramagnetic shift reagent and as MRI contrast agent. (funny, both links don't even exist, not sure if I named the second one correct, though).  As Smokefoot is suggesting, that might be a better place for the information, and then collaps the section on this page to links to these pages ('main article bladibla'), and some general info why especially Gd.  I don't think writing a chelate page for Gd is a good idea, first, all those lanthanides do is chelate (well, metal ions in general like chelation), and it would indeed give rise to many other similar pages for other elements.  All of them at least stating the EDTA complex.  --Dirk Beetstra T C 22:30, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
