message: In the third paragraph of the History section, it states: "After the crucifixion of Alfonso I, Tarazona became a town situated on the frontiers between Castile, Navarre, and Aragon, and was thus of strategic importance." 
I know next to nothing about Spanish history and don't read Spanish, but I can't find any information about this crucifixion, including in the "Death" section of Alfonso I's entry. I know there's already a "citation needed" notice around the whole History section, but that paragraph in particular seems like it might need attention from a subject matter expert.

Category talk:Science in society

message: Isn't science in society really the larger category than "science and culture"? i.e., the cat structure should be :Category:Science in society and the subcat :Category:Science and culture. --lquilter 20:47, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not necessarily.  "Culture" in the anthropological sense is broader than "society"; culture in the artistic sense would be a subcat.  For a long time the two categories "Culture" and "Society" were subcats of each other, reflecting this ambiguity.  In my view, it got resolved the wrong way (Culture is a subcat of Society now).  In the case of these science categories, both terms are so vague that I don't see how it matters.  On the other hand, I say rearrange things if you feel strongly about it.--ragesoss 00:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I don't feel strongly about it!  I get the anthropology meaning. Should we be consistent with the larger wikipedia decision (Society > Culture)?  Or are there good reasons to make science the other way?  ... The issue that brought me to this was categorizing Biological warfare and Chemical warfare. --lquilter 03:48, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems like the "science and culture" category is filled with things that do not involve the expansive anthropology definition, so I'd say your original suggestion makes the most sense.--ragesoss 14:59, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Taq polymerase

message: Quote:
One of Taq polymerases' major drawbacks is its low replication fidelity. Without a 3' to 5' exonuclease proofreading mechanism to replace an accidental mismatch in the newly synthesized DNA strand, Taq polymerase cannot be used in experiments where an identical genetic sequence is required (such as in molecular cloning).
End of quote
Actually Taq DNA polymerase can be used for cloning, usually it is just not worth the trouble and costs to use Pfu instead and one has to do a DNA sequencing of the vector plus DNA insert anyway. In all my dozens of cloning experiments I never had any trouble using Taq and never detected errors eventhough Taq has an error rate of 1 in 10,000.

:Indeed, over the past few months I've amplified up to 8 kb, and I've yet to seen my first mutation. I think it's a much exaggerated problem. 217.122.83.79 16:55, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That sounds all very well, but all of you failed to mention if you sequenced your PCR products before or after cloning. If you sequence your product directly after the amplification and before cloning into a vector, you're potentially dealing with a mixture of mutated DNA fragments, and only very close inspection of the sequencing traces will tell you if something is amiss (unless one mutation happened very early on in the PCR, you may only be able to see small "minor" peaks underneath large peaks). I've repeatedly used Takara's LA PCR Kit enzyme for long PCR and after cloning >5 kb PCR-amplified DNA fragments into bacterial vectors and then sequencing them, I (and others) nearly always found a mutation--that's even despite the fact that the Takara enzyme is supposed to have proofreading activity. So I'd be careful making these statements, unless you've given details on how you assessed potential mutations. Malljaja (talk) 11:30, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Triple candlestick (Catholic Church)

message: Present tense is observed whenever applicable in Wikipedia articles, except for things which "no longer meaningfully exist". Since there are a multitude of groups who have attached themselves to a particular set of pre-reform liturgical books, most notably the 1962 Missal, it is most appropriate to describe their current practices as they are, not as mere historical notes. 2600:8800:1880:91E:5604:A6FF:FE38:4B26 (talk) 20:06, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Aspect (computer programming)

message: Aspect-orientation is not limited to programming since it is useful to identify, analyse, trace and modularise concerns (e.g., PREview) through requirements elicitation, specification and design. Aspects can be multi-dimensional by allowing both functional and non-functional behaviour to cross cut any other concerns, instead of just mapping non-functional concerns to functional requirements.
What is PREview? Citing examples is useless if no futher information is given.

However, Taxonomicon lists the old order Stauromedusae inside the newly-formed class Staurozoa (M. & C. 2004); and, since Staurozoa also includes an extinct order not in Stauromedusae, the two names wouldn't be synonymous.
