thread_title:  The girl 

message: The project produced 215 children fathered by about 15 sperm donors . One person who is a result of the project has been widely covered, by name, since birth. Others have gone public more recently . Does WP:BLP prevent identifying those who have voluntarily had their names and histories published? Perhaps the rule could be that the child voluntarily goes public after reaching age 21, to head off children's privacy being impaired by their parent? A Google News Archive search for Repository for Germinal Choice shows several articles in reliable sources with  coverage of some of the project participants. Edison (talk) 18:06, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: WP:BLP requires that the article cites a reliable news source for any identification of living individuals, but I don't believe it prohibits identifying anyone who has been identified already in the mainstream press.  Whether or not the individual is a minor doesn't seem to apply. —Tim Pierce (talk) 18:14, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

text: My first, reflexive, inclination is that naming the people might be giving them undue weight/directing undue attention to them, considering their inherent notability-for-only-one-thing. But BLP is an area I am not very confident working in, so I'm hoping others are willing to weigh in here and provide more informed opinions. keɪɑtɪk flʌfi (talk) 18:16, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a good point. There is a real risk of undue weight in the case of identifying specific people associated with the project. If one or two participants have been subject to a higher degree of attention than the others, then it probably makes sense to mention them by name, but probably not others. —Tim Pierce (talk) 18:20, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Vagoo

message: I loved this dictionary at one point because it included everything. It was so informative. But now I feel differently. 
Deleting this word by discounting all the votes form people who aren't regulars is insane. 
And neologism ??? Okay, I'd like to refer everyone to the NEWFOUNDLAND DICTIONARY. I'm offended if you're call my culture meaningless because we made up words, because now those words are common place and part of our vocabulary. Anyway. I'm blocking this site from my browser, and from all the computers at work, and at school, probly any computer I get my hands on, its a terrible site, ran by a bunch of dictating power hungery regs.

One of our editors uses the word 'Bori' as part of his user name.

One problem is: 'Bori' are not mentioned in the article Neopet.
We have a disambiguation page Bori, but these Neopets 'Bori' are not listed on this disambiguation page.

Talk:Anthony of Kiev

message: Britannica mentions A of Pechersk as an alt name and doesn't say it is "erroneous". Why? --Irpen 22:19, July 21, 2005 (UTC)
:I don't know who's correct, but if we are and Britannica isn't, my good guess is that "pechersk" means "cave", so it means "of the caves", and "of Pechersk" is only a partial translation, assuming that Pechersk is a place name. Kinda the opposite mistranslation as "St. Sophie" (actually Hagia Sophia). --Geoffrey 04:26, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: My knowledge of Ukrainian isn't the best, but Pechersk does mean cave if I am not mistaken. Anthony of Pechersk basically means Anthony of the Caves. In my opinion, Anthony of Pechersk has a more romantic appeal to it, so some people might prefer it as a translation rather than Anthony of the Caves. On this matter, I don't think that either name is truelly erroneous, but Anthony of the Caves would appear to be a more literal translation.Gorovich 01:37, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Lakeport, California

message: I am trying to add some interesting historical facts about Lake County and the towns within it. I currently am a researcher at the Lakeport Museum, and since I am new to wikipedia, I figured this would be a good place to start contributing. The formatting of the article needs a good amount of work, and I will get the source information completed this week.
I would love to see any contributions form folks who have information I do not have at my disposal!
:A good place to do this can involve a Yahoo or Google search. Usually in the first three pages of 30 hits you should be able to find three good sources. Typically you want a city website (official), neutral POV articles about your search topic and perhaps local landmarks that are on state website pages.
:My search found only three (one using Lakeport, CA; and two using Yahoo's suggested search city of Lakeport, CA):
*Lakeport, CA official website - take a look at the Visitors tab to find History and FAQ.
*Lakeport Regional Chamber of Commerce - some Chamber of Comerce sites will be flowery because they want to attract business and visitors. Look for facts that match up with other sources.
*School Accountability Report Card Reported for School Year 2004-05 - good school data.
Keep in mind the Wikipedia:Trifecta article when you put together what your sources are telling you. If you click and read the links in that article on the Trifecta, you will be off to a good start.  Ronbo76 03:51, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Parametrization (climate modeling)

message: I've made parameterization redirect here (actually I've undo that and make it redirect to parametrization). Anyway, the text was:
----
Parameterizations are used in General circulation models (GCM) and Numerical Weather Prediction models (NWP) to represent processes that are not directly simulated, either because the corresponding equations are not included or because the processes are too small for the model resolution.  For instance, cloud formation or precipitation are calculated from quantities like water vapor, depending on the exact parameterization scheme employed.
Many of the differences between GCM experiments to predict the rate of global warming can be attributed to different parameterizations in the models.  However, the most important design goal in choosing parameterizations for a GCM is not so much picking the "best" one, as finding a set of parameterizations for the model that is consistent.
Parameterization is also used in software development. It is this action of defining any of a set of factors whose values determine the characteristics or behavior of a program.
----
I doubt any of that is useful here William M. Connolley 17:20, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Parameterization 

message: This article looks a tad neglected. I may find time to have a go at it but if anyone else wants to try, you might interested in the lecture notes from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts course on parametrisation. Some of the lecture notes are rather old and in particular where they discuss the resolution of weather forecast models need to be supplemented by the presentations for this year's course. It would also be worth including some information on the use of parametrisation perturbation in Ensemble forecasting. See  - in particular  "Using Stochastic Physics to Represent Model Error".
