Talk:Peter Checkland

message: There might be some affinity between Checkland's work on soft systems research and Richard Boland's work on phenomenology in information systems research. If Checkland's work is connected to phenomenology then he does not make the connection himself. If his work is connected to phenomenology I'm quite sure it is not to Phenomenology (science) but to Phenomenology (philosophy). Perhaps I'm just surprised that it is phenomenology that is mentioned and not the huge discussion on how SSM is interpretive and to what extent it belongs to the radical change side in Burrell & Morgan's 2x2 categorisation of social theories or whether it is 'just' regulating. This was a lengthy discussion in Journal of Applied Systems Analysis in the 80ies starting with a paper by Jackson, responses by Checkland, and the follow-up by Jackson, then Rosenhead, and finally Mingers.
I'm also a bit concerned with the illusive statement that what Boland did to information systems. While it is true that Boland was one of the first to bring phenomenology to information systems, it is questionable whether the effect on information systems research and practice is not much less and also quite different than the effects on 'soft systems' on systemic problem-solving.
If there's not a lot of objection I will rewrite the section in a week or two to reflect this.

thread_title:  Category:American slave owners 

message: I recently noticed this talk page note, as well as the rather (to me) glaring errors in the article. However, the only nearby library with the Commonwealth Catholics book still restricts access to 30 minutes/day, and I have other obligations so cannot clean up all the Brent articles. Many Brents in Virginia owned slaves, but perhaps not this man by the time of his death. Several years ago, I looked at this man's will, which I believe indicated he owned no slaves, which might be why he was "forgotten." Emancipation in that era was very difficult, and I believe he had at least one free black man in his household. In addition to the Woodstock error I corrected, this man only had one son, Robert Young Brent, who lived near what is now Forest Glen, Maryland, just outside the northwest limits of the federal city. Probably, Richard Brent Jr. was the son of Richard Brent, if not a brother then close relative.Jweaver28 (talk) 14:28, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Atheris

message: The taxonomy used in the species box of this article is completely outdated. As often is the case, ITIS (the basis for the "8 species" mentioned in the intro of the article) hasn't been updated for ages, and the other primary taxonomic source (McDiarmid and Campbell 1999) is excellent, but in this genus of relatively limited use because of the many species described + taxonomic reviews published after the 1998 deadline of the book. So, the species box correctly mentions A. mabuensis (described 2009), but fails to mention A. acuminata (described 1998), A. broadleyi (described 1999), A. hirsuta (described 2002), A. rungwensis (in the past a subspecies of A. nitschei, but see Broadley 1998 in Herpetological Journal) and A. subocularis (in the past considered a synonym of A. squamigera, but see Lawson, Noonan and Ustach 2001 in Copeia). On the contrary, the article mentions A. anisolepis, which now has been firmly established as invalid (see taxonomic section its own article). Some of these changes are mentioned very briefly in the Taxonomy section, but it is puzzling why the species box has to use the completely outdated taxonomy. 62.107.220.109 (talk) 06:55, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Philip Johnson-Laird

message: I don't have time to rework this article, but I am familiar with PJL (he was one of my lecturers about 30 years ago) and his work, and I'd like to offer some suggestions for how this article should be rewritten as/when someone else gets around to it. It doesn't really give us a sense of his work and how it's evolved. PJL is not notable for writing books and winning awards; those are simply byproducts of his studies of thinking and reasoning (as a cognitive psychologist), particularly his work on how humans create and use mental models. The article could start with his 1970s work with Peter Wason (of the famous four-card experiment), then go on to his later work in mental models (1980s - round about when I encountered him, and when he wrote Mental Models) and computational models of human reasoning... before exploring how his ideas of mental modelling have evolved since then. In terms of personal life, I seem to remember him being a bit of a jazz fiend. 82.71.0.229 (talk) 09:46, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Moreover the little infobox (how I hate infoboxes) says he was born in Ayrshire and was a civil engineer. His more formal biography elsewhere says he was born to a grocer in Aberdeen and trained as a chemist. If anyone has some more authoritative background, I'd be glad, but I am going to remove the Ayrshire and civil engineer rubbish. It's this kind of thing that gets Wikipedia a bad name.

replies: text: It is monotypic according to the taxonomy followed here, which is available online through the ITIS database. The necessary reference you seek is at the end of the article's first sentence. The ITIS snake taxonomy is based on the highly influential 1999 checklist, Snake Species of the World: A Taxonomic and Geographic Reference, vol. 1, by McDiarmid, Campbell and Touré. This book is almost universally recognized by the international herpetological community as the most authoritative taxonomic work on snakes since Boulenger's Catalogue of the Snakes in the British Museum (Natural History) (1893-1896). The ITIS website also contains information based on Dr. McDiarmid's continuing work. This is why it was decided at WP:AAR in 2006 to follow ITIS in these matters without question. The paper you found is very interesting, and this new species may eventually find its way into the ITIS taxonomy, but it's also possible that it may not; we'll just have to wait and see. Thanks very much though for bringing this to our attention; I'll be sure to add this new information to the taxonomy section. --Jwinius (talk) 13:23, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

message: The first paragraph of the page should say "Palestine" instead of "Israel". is an internationally recognized state, while Israel is new and only recognized by a few countries. Furthermore, elsewhere on the page, Israel is not mentioned. In the description for the map used to illustrate the species' distribution, Palestine is mentioned in history while Israel is not. In the map, only Israel is included within C. gasperettii's range. Not Palestine. Because they have connections in us government Farther down on the page, in the "Geographic distribution" section, Israel is mentioned as a country while it’s actually not where C. gasperettii lives, while Palestine is.
