Talk:Incontrovertible evidence

message: Simple solution: since the phrase is identitcal, this page needs to be expanded to give its meaning and definition in all fileds, Law, Logic and Mathematics. nobs 20:27, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, I'm far from convinced that the phrase has any standard meaning at all in logic or math.  Even for law, I always assumed it was just something litigators said to impress the jury.  That's why I said in VfD that it all needs to be sourced. --Trovatore 07:04, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for the response; not being a lawyer, I don't feel qualified to write the Conclusions of fact or Conclusions of law articles which are on the Requested articles page.  Also, Conclusive evidence is another common term that occurs.  You may be correct, it does seem to be a common phrase that is used by litigators, prosecutors, police and journalists; it also occurs in other fields were a judicial rendering as not occurred.  In Logic, it's the old "If A, then B, A therefore B" etc; in Mathematics, it is "2 + 2 = 4", which is incontroverible.  The example drawn from Law are already cited in the article. nobs 15:57, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: But neither logicians nor mathematicians typically use the phrase "incontrovertible evidence" in describing these inferences.  That makes it a neologism, or "original research" in the Wikipedia sense, to write about the term in this way.  Unless, of course, you can source it. --Trovatore 16:23, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

text: That was corrected yesterday, the reference being to "incontrovetible proof" in Proof Theory.  I stand corrected on that. However it is evidence that is the foundation of proof, so we cxan make that clarification. nobs 16:29, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

text: Proof theorists don't talk about "incontrovertible proof", either.  As far as I can tell, you're still just making up phrases and applying them retroactively to various disciplines.  (And not that this matters much, but "proof theory" isn't what you think it is.  Google on "Gentzen" and "sequent calculus" to get an idea.) --Trovatore 16:36, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

text: Well, I chimed in on the VfD page, but I in law, the phrase "incontrovertible evidence" is used as the antithesis of "rebuttable evidence."  Moreover, an appellate court can overturn a judge, ALJ or jury's determinations of credibly with inconvertible evidence. Sierra Resources, Inc. v. Herman, 213 F.3d 989, 992 (7th Cir. 2000).  I never the less question whether this justifies its own article... it seems like this could be dealt with in a subsection of evidence (law). I'm thinking about taking a stab at conclusion of fact and law, but those might also be best handle under the judgment article. Mmmbeer 02:47, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
Talk:Winston Churchill High School (Lethbridge)

message: The high school I graduated from, a Montgomery County, Maryland public school located in Potomac is also named Winston Churchill High School. My school possesses a higher enrollment than this one , and, located in an affluent suburb of Washington, D.C., has many notable alumni. I would like to create an article on my WCHS, but propose a disambiguation page be placed here so that no school by that name (of which there are likely many) have precedence simply because of the order in which articles were created.VJ 06:02, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  WCHS in Potomac, Maryland 

message: I thought it was a smart idea to rename the article, but I'm confused at why the city's name (with or without the province) wasn't used, given the existence of a similiar, though not identical, school name in the province.  We could then have all the old article names (those named for the same person), point to a single disambig/list page.  --rob 07:13, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, my thinking was that I just wanted to disambiguate it with the only other Winston Churchill High School there was an article for (the one in Maryland, the article for which I just created). I figured specifying the article name by country wouldn't be granular enough (I'm sure there are other high schools named after Churchill in the US and Canada), and that specifying by city name would be too granular (also, specifying a city always requires specifying the state/province as well, since city names are so far from unique). I think it's sufficient, especially since I created a disambiguation page for Winston Churchill High School that links to all three schools, the one in Maryland and the two in Alberta, so whenever anybody searches for Winston Churchill High School, they'll see both options. In any case, if you want to change the qualifiers from state/province to city, I won't object. -VJ 07:37, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, on rethought, your right about this article's name, the province is sufficient, and saves keystrokes.  --rob 07:57, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Strogoff

message: I think the setting of the novel is some forty-fifty years before it was written (it repeatedly has formulations such as "in those days..."), though the translation I read (a half-hearted Norwegian one) did not mention any year. Anybody know? And did the war really take place, or is it fiction? Jørgen 20:34, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The telegraph is supposed to be in existence, it is used now and then by the two journalists in the first half of the novel - though the lines deeper into Siberia have been torn down by Feofar's army. This would probanly put the story at least later than 1850. On the other hand, and as noted in the article, the whole idea of the military face-off between the Tartars and the Russians is an anachronism - the Tartar Khans were no match for the Russians after at least the early 18th century. The 1850s or early 1860s could be vaguely suggested.83.251.170.27 (talk) 18:19, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Wolverine (character)/Archive 1

message: "Wolverine (Marvel Character)"?  The standard seems to be either "SomeCharacter (superhero)", "SomeCharacter (Marvel Comics)" or "SomeCharacter (comics)", so it should probably get moved to one of those.  I personally favor simplicity, i.e. the last in this case, except for true name collisions (such as Captain Marvel).

thread_title: Vital Statistics

message: Are Wolverine's claws made of "the same dense bone as the rest of his skeleton," or are they adamantium? The description of the "Origin" comic implies that Wolverine was born with his claws or developed them naturally. Are they bone plated with adamantium? I imagine this whole thing may involve some retroconning... like his claws were initially concieved as an adamantium addition, but Origin made them bone. TomTheHand 17:48, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
:That retcon came about long before Origin. There was a sort-of hint in Weapon X itself (the scientists are confused about the adamantium pooling in his forearms), and it's made 100% clear in Fatal Attractions when Magneto actually rips the metal from his body. He spent about 6 years (real time, not comic-time) with bone claws (& bone skeleton) before he got new metal for good. They're admantium-laced bone like the rest of his skeleton.

thread_title:  Claws: bone or adamantium? 

message: Wolverine being able to decapitate Sabretooth in Ultimate X-Men is another example of something extraorinary happening without any sort of explanation. Adamantium is the most durable material in the Marvel Universe. Period. In the mainstream Marvel Universe, Adamantium is the only substance that I've seen that Wolverine's Adamantium claws can't cut. Sabretooth being decapitated was probably just a mistake that happened because nobody checked things out. Adamantium can't hurt Adamantium. That's just how it's supposed to be. (unsigned, left by User:IRON^HAND on 03:06, 16 May 2005)
#Ultimate Universe, not MU.
#Millar established adamantium in the UU - ergo he could do whatever he wanted with it (and it was explicitly described as semi-indestructible (not that that makes any particular sense, but the intention that it's not completely indestructible is clear).
#He probably cut through the stuff between/around the bones anyway.

thread_title:  Historical names 

message: Hi there. Surfing on the slovak wiki or any slovak Tatry-associated websites, it's unlikely not to be given an impression that Slovaks mistakenly take whole and entire Tatra range for Vysoke Tatry only. In other words, for Slovaks Tatry=Vysoke Tatry, as if the Zapadne Tatry and Belianske Tatry didn't exist at all. Maybe that's because of the name of the city which lies at the foot of Vysoke Tatry, called Vysoke Tatry (city) as well. The other probable cause might be the existance of totally separate and different mountain range, situated about 40 km south of Tatras, called Nizke Tatry (Low Tatras). As far as I'm concerned, they were originally named Niżnie Tatry, which could be translated into Southern Tatras. The error occured when non-slovak and non-polish cartographists (austro-hungarian) notoriously mistaken original slavic names for geographical objects. And so we had e.g. Velky Tatransky Krivan instead of Velky FATRANSKY Krivan, etc. It's for all to see on the old maps available on the internet.
This issue is being quite problematic, because whilst someone looks for an accomodation in Vysoke Tatry, a given slovak website shows him the search outcome in which there is e.g. Liptovsky Mikulas (which lies under Zapadne, not Vysoke Tatry) as well, etc. 
Summa summarum, Slovaks cannot simply distinguish their greatest national treasure being all those amazingly carpathians subranges, a pearl of which being Tatry. Now this is quite sad, because a major part of that beautiful country is mountainous, so theoretically, you could expet the inhabitants to be fully aware of what is what and which range is which. Best regards to Slovaks. Please shift your conciousness in those terms. Thank you.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.12.91.242 (talk) 12:10, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Talk:CNBC Europe

message: There is a news report stating the CNBC Europe will move to full 100% NBC Universal ownership, rather than the 50% NBC Universal and 50% Dow Jones as it is at the moment.  Should the article state the proposing full NBC ownership or should it be left until that day arives?
Leave until December - there might always be a hicup in obtaining clearance (though I would expect not) and to say it is 100% owned by NBC would not reflect present reality.--Rdd 16:33, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
