thread_title: Opening comment

message: Sicne making them with "Country" attached as an appellation, to clarify catnames for non-BC readers, I've since gathered that other parallel cats in the world of wiki don't necessarily have to say "region" or "area" or anything else, just the commonly-used name, so long as no other dabbing is necessary; so certain ones like Okanagan Country and Kootenay Country I'm pondering might have been better in their more usual modern forms :Category:Okanagan and :Category:Kootenays - "Kootenays" I've found myself typing the catname that way, in fact, it's such a standard usage.  Similarly maybe :Category:Chilcotin Country and :Category:Cariboo Country could be in shorter forms; :Category:Chilcotin I didn't like when I first thought of it that way because of the confusion potential with :Category:Tsilhqot'in which of course is one of its necswsary subcats.  On the Coast, user:pfly and I had a discussion about "water regions" on Category talk:Puget Sound re a potential :Category:Queen Charlotte Strait and :Category:Strait of Juan de Fuca - re the VI region :Category:Juan de Fuca mirrors the common vernacular usage but seems like it should be about the person, not the region/strait.  Water region problems aside, and the ongoing issue of overlapping regions in this cat and related cats in general, I'll leave asdie for now; it's the cat names that are bugging me, since I juust created :Category:Wells Grey-Cleaerwater and realize now that :Category:Wells Grey-Clearwater Country might have been a better choice; if someone can "bot" the change to that please do; it's only been started today and has only a couple of dozen entries so far (though lots of articles out there are still due to get it, never mind things not written yet).  :Category:Lower Mainland could maybe use :Category:Upper Fraser Valley and whatever other subregions might be appropriate; the old Central Fraser Valley nom-de-region has been lost in the restructuring of the region, and eeverything weset of Abby-Mission is GVRD now; but even the GVRD has its subregions, no?

Talk:British Columbia Highway 6

message: I believe it was around 1975 that Highway 6 was upgraded between Slocan City and Silverton. Perhaps someone can provide an accurate date? A short tunnel along Slocan Lake was bypassed by building a new highway above it. Here is a link to some pretty amazing photographs of the Kootenay region (and other areas):

*Template:Infobox Scientist should be added 
*Photograph should be added from a source with a free license 
*Article needs expanding and should emphasise reasons for notability of subject
*Article should be divided into appropriate subheadings
*Information on research should be expanded
*References should be converted to inline format

message: I'm not advocating any sort of self-promotion from people working in the field, but I'd be interested in seeing this piece expanded with some notable examples of dialect coaching.  Perhaps standard methodologies could be briefly outlined.  For example (if applicable, as I have no idea if these actors even required dialect coaching), I'd be curious what sort of work was needed for actors like Hugh Laurie and Ryan Kwanten to develop their remarkably (IMO) good accents for their Dr. Gregory House and Jason Stackhouse characters.  And what would qualify a person to be a dialect coach?  Are there professional standards or some sort of licensure/certification for the job?   72.0.15.8 (talk) 14:29, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

message: this edit removed significant amounts of content, at least some of which was sourced, whiloe adding othre content. Another editor the removed the content addd by the first edit, leaving the net result as the removal of content, soem of which was sourcesd. I, in response to a Teahouse quewry, then commented out the now dangling refereces that were causing cite errors, in  this later edit. 
The question is, were the removals in th first edit an improvment or should they be undone? Note that if they are undone, either a full revert should be made, or the editor undoign them should be careful to restore the now commented-out refs as well. DES (talk) 11:34, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Can somebody please take new pictures, or upload new ones? We have plenty of photographers in Midland. I'm not sure who "f9 Photography" is but they've obviously edited the pictures to the point where the colours don't match what people should expect at all. They've vastly reduced the look of the images by brightening them up to the point where they almost look smudged. The new paintings (which look awful imo) are already brighter, there's no point in brightening them up more, and brightening the old paintings. 99.227.33.82 (talk) 16:58, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: Then :Category:Native American culture would need a new name, as it's "unacceptable" to use on this side of the border; and there are different hierarchies above and below them because of hte different history/culture as affected by the respective impacts of the dominant nation-states; it would be nice if there was a solution that but as Native American name controversy and its talkpage serve to remind, it's nowhere near solved yet despite the claims made on Native American, which give the US meaning mostly, or mostly from that context anyway.  :Category:Indigenous culture has "culture" in a different meaning, or I'd suggest it as a "host/parent" category for both; if it exists that is.Skookum1 (talk) 22:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

From Tomson Highway to Pauline Johnson to Dee Brown, there seems to be a major need for this cat.  Or am I simply not looking in the right place?Skookum1 (talk) 22:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Killer ape theory

message: I'll add the template but I'm not going to dig for citations for this outdated thing.  However I think the link to the Hunting Hypothesis should be explicit (I can do that).  It's still a bit important for the anthropology project since it influenced the public opinion of both humans and anthropology, but it's largely unimportant for evolutionary biology, since this theory concerns a rather specific aspect and is mostly unscientific (see the link in the article).
Anyone who disagrees is of course welcome to modify the article again.

Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Desiphral

message: Bakasuprman writes, "Desiphral has provided resources and citations to attest to the use of [Deva]nagari amoung gypsies. Rather this seems like a way to attack the lone roma contributor on wiki."
:First, I'd appreciate it if you and Desiphral assumed good faith and refrained from thinly-veiled personal attacks (in accusing people of anti-Roma bias or attempts to "attack" the "lone" Roma contributor on Wikipedia). Secondly, he never did provide any source until today; he had one month to do so in which people asked him for one, and another month after Dewrad gave him until the beginning of April. He never even responded to Dewrad's idea; all that happened was that seven days after the extremely generous deadline he'd been given to come up with sources had passed, he provided one source that actually refuted his point (here, which I was not aware of at the time I was writing this RfC, since it had only happened a few minutes before), and without even waiting for his claims to be addressed he unilaterally changed all the pages back by re-adding Devanagari. He never once said anything on the talk page like "I'm looking for sources, but I'm having trouble finding reliable ones, could you give me a few more days before removing Devanagari from the article" or "I disagree with your proposed deadline because..." or anything like that. He just added his original research back, despite the fact that consensus was clearly against it. --Miskwito 05:02, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Possible Plagarism Issue 

message: I just reverted an edit that added this to the beginning: " which is basically in perspective of Intelligent Knowledge Acquisition ." First, I thought this was clumsy English and also saying "intelligent" knowledge acquisition is redundant. But more importantly KIF is not primarily about Knowledge Acquisition. Knowledge acquisition refers to getting domain knowledge encoded as rules and ontologies. I.e., going from the informal knowledge stored in the heads of experts to formal representations of that knowledge that a computer can use. KIF is about sharing formal representations of knowledge. Its essentially a tool for technical people not domain experts. To some extent you can say it facilitates Knowledge Acquisition but you could essentially say that about any tool that is involved in a knowledge based system. The kinds of technologies that are specifically relevant to knowledge acquisition are things like explanation engines (that explain the reasoning of a system in text or graphics that is intuitive to users), tools to automatically capture rules and ontologies from existing documents, graphical ontology editors such as Protege, etc. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 15:57, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Mediation Committee/Nominations/Geo.plrd 3/Daniel's notes

message: You have read the allegations made. I do not deny what was done. However, I do disagree with the way it is presented. 
First, everything on that page is over a year old. Is it possible that change can happen in the course of year? Yes, because change is constant. I have changed in the course of that year, a continuation of the growth that can be seen in the proposals. When I made the first proposals, I had very little experience. When I proposed the Arbcab, I did not set it up and say this is law as with the earlier ones. The links will show that I actively sought to initiate a discussion. This is a change from the initial unilateral steps I took.
The multiple requests for permissions I filed were done while I was not cognizant of the high level of trust WP requires. I have not requested permissions of any kind since then, save for rollback. Two of the four comments were made by an individual (Zoe) who left after being accused by Jimbo of having a vendetta against another user, these should therefore be discounted. In addition this page only talks about negative things I did. 
Let's talk about positives. I oversaw the expansion the coordination of Motto of the Day to five, leading to stuff getting processed faster. I advocated for several users at AMA before it was shuttered. At OPV, I helped clean out a backlog. Recently, I was helping out at textile Arts where I flushed the slush pile.  
I was marginally active for nine months due to being at Conservapedia. Let's look at my conduct there. I made Sysop shortly. This means that I earned the trust of the site owner, a group of students, and the other Sysops. I was appointed to the Advisory Board for the site, one out of only ten users selected. Currently, on a site run by detractors, I am one of the only members of this Board to not have a page chronicling misdeeds. I think this speaks for itself.
