Talk:Sally (band)

message: I (the author of this article) would argue that the subject of this article satisfies the [Notability (music)] guidelines for musicians and ensembles at least on points 1,2, and 4 and the questionable notability template should be removed. Several references to the band have been cited (many more exist), the band has been charted on the cmj charts in the United States, and have toured the eastern US. Joey Hagedorn 02:02, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If they've had a charted hit then the article needs to state that with sources, it's not enough to say it on the talk page, and I don't think touring the eastern US counts as a "national tour."  That said I probably wouldn't have attached the tag in the first place if the article had been like it is now, so I'll remove it. --P4k 02:10, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure what it takes to make a division name "offical", but the name change was annnounced at a divisional meeting.  Since the article is about Clascal, here is a facsimile of the title page of the Clascal Beta Draft manual, dated 30 Sep 1983:

===Pedigree of Lisa Pascal/Clascal===
By definition all Pascal implementations ultimately hark back to Nicholas Wirth and  ETH (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich) Pascal; it is the basis of the ANSI standard.  However, when the third-party company SVS (Silicon Valley Software) was engaged to produce Lisa Pascal for Apple in 1981, their assignment was to produce a compiler which was backwards-compatible with Apple  Pascal.  All of the Lisa OS code up to that time had been written in Apple II/III (UCSD) Pascal.  SVS's main contribution was the code generator, which was a compiler, rather than an interpreter.

Talk:Christian views on magic/Archive 1

message: This article's whole content smacks of POV issues. It uses the words most when describing the beliefs of Christian's far to often without any sort of sourcing to indicate that these beliefs are in fact normative of Christians. Indeed many seem normative specifically of fundamentalist and conservative Christian bodies. Among Liberal Christianity however more divergent views seem prevalent and few of these are in fact addressed.

Talk:Papa Legba

message: I am reading the novel Mona Lisa Overdrive, that is mentioned in this article. Legba, the subject of this article, appears right in the beginning of the novel. I came to wikipedia to check out what it this all about. Then I read, and was satisfied.  Then I started reading the last session, and of course, I searched for the book I'm reding. Then I read the whole line, and guess wat, it's a spoiler. It's an awful spoiler. It told me something that will only be told in the ending of the book.
So, If it was a gross use of the spoiler tag, and if this last section cannot be seen as a "fiction" section, even if it is talking about a fiction book, and worse, talking about facts that only make sense inside that book, then I suggest we remove the last part of the phrase.
Afterall, it doesn't matter wether Legba in the movie is real or a dream, and much less if it is a natural dream, or if it is a dream caused by the fact that the character had fragments of the Wintermute/Neuromancer... (This fact being the spoiled I did not want to read) -- NIC1138 04:02, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spoil or not to spoil 

message: The caption states, "Legba figure in the Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam. This legba figure is missing his knife or walking-stick. He normally wears a hat and not horns" but in the text it states, "In Benin and Nigeria, Legba is viewed as young and virile, is often horned and phallic" which states it is an alternative view. I have NO knowledge of the Vodou religion and was reading this and a bit confused by the conflicting statements. To me, the statue raises the question of whether it represents a traditional Haitian Vodou figure of Legba or whether it represents the view of the alternative version in Benin and Nigeria. Given the horns and fairly prominent phallus, it makes me suspect at least that it is representative of the Benin/Nigerian view. The usual appearance where he is described as "an old man on a crutch or with a cane, wearing a broad brimmed straw hat and smoking a pipe, or sprinkling water. The dog is sacred to him." is just not at all representative of that statue. I would say the horn strapped to his right arm could be a pipe and the vessel on his left arm could hold water for him to sprinkle but aside from that, he is not old, does not have a crutch or cane, is not wearing a broad brimmed straw hat and does not have a dog. I am just asking out of curiosity. I happened on this article and saw a tiny typo in the caption then as I read further, it caused me to wonder. WayneyP (talk) 22:05, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

message: "long strings under high tension can store more acoustic energy than can short strings, giving larger instruments more volume"
It is correct that they can store more energy, but that energy does not report as acoustic energy until it is transformed into such by causing motion in the medium (air) in which the strings themselves move, at which time it is no longer stored in the string but in the air. While it is in the string it takes the form of (strain energy due to tension at time t) + (kinetic energy due to string mass and velocity at time t). This sum reflects the time-varying partition of the stored energy circulating in a "tank circuit": when the string passes through its equilibrium position the strain energy is minimal because the tension is and the kinetic energy is maximal because the velocity is, and when the string is at its maximum displacement the strain energy is maximal because the tension is and the kinetic energy vanishes because the string is motionless. This is exactly analogous to a pendulum clock: the pendulum stores PE(t) + KE(t) units of energy at time t where PE is the potential energy and KE is the kinetic energy, with the analog of the acoustic energy being the amount of energy being withdrawn from the tank circuit (PE and KE being the two "tanks" between which the stored energy flows back and forth) and dissipated by the clockworks.

Talk:Judy Stone

message: The article currently uses 1942 as Stone's birth year and cites a Spicks and Specks episode from September 2008.
Other sources suggest that 1944 is the correct year:
# McFarlane has "During the early 1960s, singer Judy Stone (b. 1944) became a regular on television pop show Bandstand".1
# The Cumberland Argus (9 August 1961) has "These two important events in the life of 17-year-old Judy Stone, of Brussels Street, Granville, occurred last Thursday morning."2
# Ainslie Barker of The Australian Women's Weekly (20 December 1961) writes "And she's having, for the first time, a special card of her own printed, the outside showing a drawing of a TV studio. Judy will be 18 on New Year's Day."3
I haven't changed the year of birth over yet as some sources agree with the 1942 value:
# Manning (17 September 1980) has "Judy's career began at the age of ll, and she went professional in 1966 at the age of 24. 'In those days, we did shows like Bandstand and there was all the spangle of appearing on TV,' laughs the woman who, at 38, still looks like a teenager."4
# NLA has "Stone, Judy, 1942–".5, 6.
I would like the opinion of interested editors on whether the year should be changed.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 14:41, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
