Talk:Beijing–Kowloon railway

message: Re  - The fact that the through train service is provided on the Jingguang and Guangshen lines is obtainable from the ticket office, or from anybody who's actually taken such a journey. — Instantnood 23:24, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Beijing-Kowloon Through Train service

message: For article names of Chinese railways, the full name of the railway (i.e. both terminal cities) should always be spelled out, rather than merely the two character abbreviation.  When the abbreviations are transliterated into English, essential identifying information is lost.  E.g. 
* Xiangyu, Xianggui, Xiangpu Railways all have different “Xiang” characters; 
* Xianggui and Guikun Lines have different “Gui” characters; 
* Yiwan and Yijia Lines have different “Yi” characters; 
* Yiwan and Wangan Railways have different “Wan” characters;
* Yuli and Yucha Railways have different “Li” characters;
* Banlan and Baocheng Railways have different “Bao” characters;
* Lanxin and Lanyan Lines have different “Lan” characters;
* Jiaoji, and Jiaoliu Railways have different “Jiao” characters
* Jiaoji and Jitong Railways have different “Ji” characters;
* Jitong and Tongpu Lines have different “Tong” characters;
The list goes on and on.  
Many English readers may be unfamiliar with one-character abbreviations of certain Chinese cities and provinces. So Yu for Chongqing, Hu for Shanghai, Jiu for Kowloon adds to the confusion. For consistency and clarity, Wikipedia article names of Chinese railways should always feature the full names.  In-article references can use abbreviated names. The only exception may be the Longhai Line, which has become a two-character word in itself.

Talk:Corporate liberalism

message: Berk, Gerald with replies by Livingston, James and Vogel, David.  Title: CORPORATE LIBERALISM RECONSIDERED: A REVIEW ESSAY.  Citation: Journal of Policy History 1991 3(1): 70-84. ISSN: 0898-0306  Abstract: Reviews James Livingston's Origins of the Federal Reserve System: Money, Class and Corporate Capitalism, 1890-1913 (1986) and Martin J. Sklar's The Corporate Reconstruction of American Capitalism, 1890-1916: The Market, the Law, and Politics (1988), two books that discuss corporate liberalism, an ideology in which the principles of classical liberalism are "reconstituted to assimilate large-scale concentrations of property and organizational hierarchy associated with the modern corporation." Livingston accepts Berk's criticism of his argument but disagrees with Berk's contention that there was an alternative to the evolution of corporate capitalism. Vogel disagrees with Berk's view that there was an alternative to corporate capitalism during the Progressive Era, claiming that small business existed and continues to exist alongside mass production rather than as an alternative to it.

Title: REMARKS CONCERNING MARTIN J. SKLAR'S THE CORPORATE RECONSTRUCTION OF AMERICAN CAPITALISM, 1890-1916.  
Citation: Business and Economic History 1992 21: 40-42. ISSN: 0894-6825  
Abstract: Examines Martin Sklar's 1988 book, Corporate Reconstruction of American Capitalism, which explores the turn-of-the-century rise of corporate liberalism, and its cross-class nature, with extensive attention devoted to antitrust laws. Sklar underplays the transformation of the middle class during 1890-1916, and is incorrect when he states that there was no corporatism in America at the tim-hat the Wilsonian settlement took antitrust out of the political arena.

Talk:Nuclear program of Iran/Archive 1

message: ‘’On August 11, 2005, the 35-member governing board of the IAEA adopted a resolution by 'consensus' calling upon Iran to suspend uranium conversion, and instructing director general Mohammed El Baradeil to submit a report on Iran's nuclear program by September 3, 2005. The resolution is considered by many to be weak since it does not include the threat of referral to the Security Council.’’
Removed the word consensus from the sentence above for the following reasons;
1. All IAEA board resolutions are adopted by consensus, there is no voting. A draft proposal is set forth and is negotiated upon until all members agree upon a text. Thus the expression "by consensus" does not convey any more information than simply stating that the resolution was adopted.
2. The purpose of the timeline is not to comment upon the mechanisms of IAEA draft resolutions. By including the word "consensus" the lay-reader will be left with the impression that the resolution must have been one with broad support, thus pushing a POV. It can equally easily be argued that this is not the case, the resolution was produced after heavy negotiations between the NAM-countries (14 countries) and the EU-3 + USA + Canada. Some argue that if Singapore hadn't broken the ranks in the NAM a second round of negotiations would have been called for. 
3. Even if it were so that many countries in the NAM would be quite happy with not admonishing Iran at all (and it is a common view that such is the case) a compromise-resolution would be adopted in the end with some degree of "suspension calls" followed by weak threats. In fact this is the type of resolution that was passed in the end. The expression "adopted by consensus" does not convey this to the lay-man reader.
Again, I believe the purpose of Wikipedia articles are to convey facts formulated in such a manner that is not misleading to the lay-reader. If "adopted by consensus" is to be included, an explanation of what this means is warranted for. The timeline is meant to be a short summary of events thus not suitable for any such explanation. Hence the word must be removed.
