Talk:Peter Schjeldahl

message: He misuses words such as 'sinecure': "fame is increasingly superfluous to the establishment of an artist’s sinecure", where he seems to think it means "secure position (in the art world)". Tsinfandel (talk) 16:32, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see his usage as incorrect or a misuse at all. Here is a fuller quote from your cite: "Rauch [the artist] may be barely known outside the art world, but fame is increasingly superfluous to the establishment of an artist’s sinecure. Insider buzz and sales to collectors of the right pedigree are what count." Considering the fuller quote the usage is not problematic. Many artists do in fact inhabit sinecures established by collector and insider buzz.Stantal (talk) 13:13, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Where is there any acknowledgment of his film criticism, which he wrote for The New York Times in the early 1970s? It made a great impression on me. I particularly recall a rave review of Robert Altman's McCabe & Mrs. Miller, which nevertheless blasted the Manhattan theater in which the picture was being shown, for having the temerity to bring up the house lights before the movie's end credits had finished rolling... my kind of film critic.

Talk:Peter Skrzynecki

message: Why is the IPA given as '/s:kɹeɪzɪˑnɛˑkɪ/' ????  Is that how HE pronounces it?  Or Australians in general?  His Polish/Ukranian relatives would certainly not pronounce it that way, but rather something like 'skshiNETSki' (where that first i is a rather dull 'uh' sound) - I'll let some IPA expert work out what that is.  On the face of it the current IPA makes no sense given the origin of the name. Stumps 12:51, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Peter Stevens (car designer)

message: Peter Stevens' radical design process prioritises aerodynamic efficiency from a project’s inception, marking a paradigmatic shift in high performance automotive design:
Peter Stevens designed the Jaguar XJR-15, produced from 1990-1992 at Tom Walkinshaw's Jaguar Sport company at Bloxham near Banburyalongside the Jaguar XJ220 by Tom Walkinshaw Racing .
With a top speed of 213.1 mph (343.0 km/h), the Jaguar XJ220 held the record for fastest production car throughout 1992.
Based heavily on the Peter Stevens-designed XJR-15, the Nissan R390 GT1 was capable of 225 mph--which in 1997 surpassed the XJ220, only to be superseded by the McLaren F1 in 1998. 
In April 1998 the McLaren F1 became the fastest production car ever built. Styled by Peter Stevens, the F1 achieved 243mph at Volkswagen’s Ehra-Lessien test track--a speed unsurpassed until 2005 (by the Koenigsegg CCR).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patronanejo (talk • contribs) 14:39, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

It claims it has 1,000,000 original articles, contributed by 6,000 notable contributors.
But, there are reports that the 6,000 contributors were unaware that they were being listed as contributors.  If their works are available on the site, without their knowledge, that strongly implies (1) they are not original; (2) they have been plagarized.

message: Is there any reason why the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture is referred to in this article as simply the Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture?  I'm also not too keen on saying that it relates L-function "to" elliptic curves.  It relates properties of the L-functions of elliptic curves to arithmetic/algebraic properties of the curves themselves.
