Talk:Palinopsia

message: In the past the writer experienced Palinopsia. Tests by an opthalmologist and a neurologist didn't yield any explanation, other than an assurance that there was nothing seriously wrong. However, a routine blood test showed a severe vitamin D deficiency (possibly related to my vegan diet). The symptoms disappeared after taking a vitamin D supplement (non-animal based supplement is available). Excessive use of vitamin D supplements can also cause serious problems. If anyone wants to try this, they should consult a physician and test the Vitamin D level.Ilanko 10:29, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

message: "these and certain other visual disorders may be the result of a lack of inhibitory neural signals in all or part of the visual center of the brain"
"benzodiazepines . . . as they promote uptake of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, they might reduce the overstimulation which has been shown to occur in palinopsia sufferers."
This appears contradictory. If benzodiazepines promote uptake of inhibitory GABA, wouldn't that mean there would be less of it around, so that there would be even less inhibition and even more overstimulation? (I am thinking by analogy with serotonin reuptake inhibitors like Prozac, which, as I understand it, work by inhibiting uptake of serotonin by cells so that there is more of it left around in the brain to stimulate receptors.) Does the author mean that the benzodiazepines potentiate the effects of GABA, perhaps by making is stick better to the receptors? Or something else? Treharne (talk) 07:48, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

message: It would be awesome if someone with knowledge on this topic could add a section thoroughly describing what these patients see (with sources). 
This phenomenon appears to be a symptom, rather than a condition. So I'm not sure "Symptoms" would be the best title, but I can't really think of a better one.

replies: text:  Plus according to the current read of the article awnings were used in Egypt, Syria and Rome in antiquity and then nothing till either the Civil War or the 19th century?  How about awnings in China. Plenty of pictures.  Plus since tents were commen way before market stalls in Syria - think Wooly Mammoth - it stands to reason it didn't take them that much longer to add awnings.  Tent awnings.  AFAIK there is no other word for a piece of shade cloth attached to a tent.  Lots of gaps and time jumps in this current article.

Talk:Surf Trio/Archive 1

message: Reviewing the edit and history sections on The Surf Trio, it appears that a very selective overview of this group is being presented.
The user "Ronkleim", who may be this band's guitarist, seems to want to gloss over the crossed paths and turbulent actions that connect these momentarily notorious groups with each other and the cross-pollenations of influences that are reflected in the music.
The Miracle Workers and The Surf Trio often gigged together in Portland, OR at Club Satyricon. In early 1986, when The Miracle Workers moved to L.A., Joel Barnett, the Miracle Workers' bassist, stayed in town and formed The Bo Diddley Headhunters. The Bo Diddley Headhunters gigged often with Surf Trio in the two years that the Bo Diddley Headhunters was in existence. 
In the summer of 1988, Aaron Temple, the Surf Trio drummer, quit the group suddenly. Terrence Kerrigan, the drummer/co-founder of the Bo Diddley Headhunters (and notorious fellow Hell-raiser with Aaron Temple) was brought in as a replacement. Kerrigan's drumming can be heard on the "Here Aint The Sonics" tribute release, playing on "Strychnine"; he can also be heard on several of the cuts on the Moxie Records Surf Trio box set, which were recorded with the Surf Trio side project, The Hugs, which was basically The Surf Trio without Jeff Martin.
In June of 1989, before a gig at Club Satyricon, Jeff Martin and Peter Weinberger, unceremoniously, voted Ron Kleim out of The Surf Trio. Terrence Kerrigan voted for Ron, and threatened to quit and pull his kit off the stage if they voted Ron out of the group.
In July of 1989, with a release pending on Get Hip Records, Jeff Martin and Peter Weinberger pulled Kerrigan back in, Kerrigan called in Joel Barnett, and former Drivetrain guitarist Richard Spaugh to form The Wicked Ones. The Wicked Ones released a three song EP on Get Hip records featuring songs written by Martin, Kerrigan, and Barnett.

And secondly, I have not used my revert parole yet on that page, so i needn't make sock accounts to make reverts or edits. thirdly, what you call vandalism, is simply neutral version, and everything started from some editors to insert armenian sources to that article, and then another editors reverted them, and when limits of first some users ran out, there appeared some new account and Ip which resemble to socks, and also appeared some other accounts that resemble to socks from opposite direction, so if you want you can file another chekuser. BTW, i can't see any Qarapapaq there, and Aramgutan appeared after I filed case. Dr Alban and Zhirtibay I do not believe are either you or VartanM, so that is why I filed only those above.

Talk:Trans-Lux

message: Added information about Fair Play Scoreboards, and other information about the company.
Translux was removed from the NYSE (American Exchange) in November, 2010. Stock price was last reported at $0.285 pshr at last close before removal.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.108.149.230 (talk) 01:46, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I'm drafting an article that is closely related to the Trans-Lux article. I have been given to believe that this book may not suit the Wikipedia standards for accessibility, and maybe even reliability. Don't get me wrong. I have the book and I think it's an incredibly valuable resource. But the book was self-published by the company (as many corporate histories are-does that automatically disqualify them?), and it was not super widely distributed, as far as I can tell, which is also typical of self-published corporate histories. It can't be found in the New York Public Library, for example, although ironically the earlier (1929) self-published Trans-Lux corporate history can be found there. Trans-Lux had moved its HQ to Connecticut by 1982, so it's probably in the Connecticut libraries. Yes, Grenz can be purchased on Amazon for $20-25, so it's not impossible to acquire. I asked for help on my article and an editor terrified me with the word "ephemera", referring to some Trans-Lux advertising brochures I had obtained. He said these are not good sources for Wikipedia because they were never published, per se. I have been bending over backward to avoid using Grenz as a source because, although it was (self-)published, it borders on ephemera and is not an independent source, even though my life would be made much easier if I could just use it. I've been doing nips and tucks on articles for years, but now that I'm drafting a new article, I really feel lost at sea, so your comments are most welcome. Thank you!  Milst1 (talk) 16:44, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, nobody answered, but I thought about it some more and I think the source is fine. In the Wikipedia:Reliable sources article in the section on self-published sources, it says self-published sources can be used if the material is neither "unduly self-serving" nor makes an "exceptional claim", does not make claims about third parties, doesn't involve unrelated claims, has no doubts as to its authenticity, and is not based on such sources. I think that there is inherently a self-serving nature to self-published company histories, but there is also a great deal of usable information within them. As private organizations, companies have access that outsiders do not, and, moreover, they may be the only entity bothering to keep score at all. I'd still love to hear someone else's thoughts, but I don't even know how to get anyone's attention here.Milst1 (talk) 23:20, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
