Talk:Mary Shelley

message: As my recent start at moving over to SFN/Harvp for the references was reverted by , I am here seeking a consensus for the change. The main argument is using such, or a similar standard is better than the plain text references, as it allows for a single click to the relevant full citation in the bibliography section, as to the current need to look for the relevant citation by just the surname alone (as none provide the date for the citation in the plain text reference). -- Cdjp1 (talk) 11:20, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

Talk:The Private Life of Henry VIII

message: The Private Life of Henry the VIII is without a doubt one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. The movie is listed as a drama, so i'm not sure if it was made to be funny or just appears that way. I found the movie do be ridiculous, with many random pointless scenes done with over acting and silliness by King Henry. Many long pauses and much of the dialouge sounded like gibberish. I found this to be one of the funniest movies I have ever seen and would love to see this movie played on the sci-fi program Mystery Science Theater, which is a program where old movies are made fun of with added dialogue. I recommend this movie to anyone with a good sense of humor. -nate

thread_title: Repurposing

message: Someone asked in an HTML comment:
:Is 3 storage areas merely a type of Harvard architecture, or does "Harvard" imply exactly 2 storage areas ?
:Having separate address spaces for instruction and data memory is what (in my opinion) defines the Harvard architecture.  Assuming that there is only one instruction memory address space (I can't think of a reason to have more than one), that still leaves the door open for more than one data address space.  This is common on digital signal processors, particularly thosed tuned to a specific purpose.  For example, a hypothetical DSP highly optimized for FFTs might benefit from four data address spaces, real sample data, imaginary sample data, real twiddle factors and imaginary twiddle factors.  So, my vote would be to call anything with one or more data address spaces distinct from the instruction address space Harvard.--GrahamDavies 13:27, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Harvard architecture

message: This address space article currently claims:
: Unfortunately, many early computers did not support a flat memory model -- in particular, Harvard architecture machines force program storage to be completely separate from data storage.
However, the (current version of) the flat memory model article contradicts that, saying that it is possible to have a Harvard architecture with a flat memory model, as long as it avoids segmentation and bank switching.
I see that earlier versions of the "flat memory model" article say that Harvard architecture is by definition not a flat memory model.
Can we resolve this contradiction?

message: I dispute the statement that Bernardt was a courtisan, that is, by definition,  "a prostitute or kept woman". She had many lovers, but she was never a "kept woman"; she had an independent source of income.  She had a police file because she had relationships with important and famous people, not because she was a prostitute. "Courtisan" is a degrading and inappropriate  term to use for her.

replies: text: I appreciate your comment Athaenara and no offense taken at all. The main reason for objecting to the original image and hence replacing it, IMO, was that the original one seemed to be rather awkward as a infobox image for the article. Although the image is taken from an interview, which may make it of more significance than promo images, however, there surely are better interview images of him. I guess the original intention of selecting this image in particular was to hint somehow Amr Khaled's appreciation for the intellectual approach of dealing with Islam (with the pointing of his finger to his head and all). Yet somehow the image IMHO ends up as some sort of a funny snapshot, taken of him while he gazes to what seems to be nowhere. On the other hand, I think that requiring other images to illustrate a section such as Ministry and audience currently comes as a second priority to selecting an appropriate main image for the article. Thus, preferring to preserve the new image for the article's infobox, I moved it back for now. However, I'm more than willing to discuss this further in the evidence of an opposing concession. --NomadOfArabia 11:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I discovered this article after writing Clytie.  Since that article has the genealogy correct, I am going to make this article a redirect to that one.  I do understand how "Oceanus" and "Orchamus" are close in spelling, but what we have indicates that Clytia sat alone amid ocean rocks and died, where Leucothoe was buried under desert sands -- not the same family at all.  In other places, Clytia is mentioned as one of the daughters of Oceanus and Tethys. Geogre 14:31, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
