Talk:Gotonpō

thread_title:  Japanese script 

message: While I certainly will admit that there are certain abilities, and certain philosophies about the ninja arts, which can be seen across a wide variety of media, this article seems to state it quite concretely, and with no sources. Which specific fictional/fantasy representations use the term "gotonpō", and describe the five paths in precisely this way, by these names? I do not wish to formally nominate this article for deletion just yet, but I shall post a note on WP:J and test the waters as to people's opinions on the matter. I think that the subject is in itself interesting and notable, but needs a major overhaul in order to more accurately represent which media make use of this five elemental paths concept, how they represent it, etc. Thanks.

replies: text: What does the Japanese Wikipedia article have to say about it? —Quasirandom 17:13, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  The Japanese article basically just says that within ninjutsu there are arts based on air, earth, insects, beasts, cloud, thunder, and darkness, and that these things frequently appear in (fictional) media forms as dramatic names for various skills which help to hide from enemies, to escape, or to fight. Unlike this English article, the Japanese one avoids going into too much detail about specific paths or arts without claiming which source (Naruto? just a wild guess) this applies to or comes from. LordAmeth 22:41, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: While the depiction in Naruto and other media of ninja elemental abilities is certainly fantastic, the techniques mentioned here are all described realistically, and I would be inclined to accept that the divisions are based on actual (modern or historical) ninjutsu teachings, not just fictional versions of ninja, as LordAmeth seems to be reading the article. Sources, as always, would help a lot though.--DrHacky 05:32, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Geez, I'm sorry. I just glanced at it quickly and assumed that it said stuff about throwing fireballs or travelling through shadows, walking on water, etc. I can't believe that I missed that everything they talk about here is feasible realistic stuff, not fantastic ninja magic nonsense. How embarrassing. Even so, we do need sources; while this stuff may be related in period sources, I really would not be surprised if it's still inaccurate and anachronistic. (e.g. note that Miyamoto Musashi's The Book of the Five Rings, the Hagakure, and a number of similar texts were all written long after the end of the eras of samurai warfare and the imposition of the Pax Tokugawa.) If there are sources that can indicate that early modern texts describe ninjutsu in this way, then it's a real and worthwhile topic, even if real ninja did not follow this conception. However, if this is a relatively modern conception, derived from romanticized or fictionalized notions of the ninja, then... LordAmeth 00:58, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Kort nozzle

message: I don't think the physics explanation is correct. It essentially says that flow circulation increases thrust. That is nonsensical. An unducted prop would create even more circulation than a ducted one. Rather the duct improves thrust because it reduces circulation and the drag it causes. The ducted fan article says something similar. "By reducing propeller blade tip losses and directing its thrust towards the back only, the ducted fan is more efficient in producing thrust than a conventional propeller, especially at higher rotational speeds."http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducted_fan Dude6935 (talk) 07:02, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Oslob

message: The Cuartel sub-section of the Tourist spots section (when I found it it was spelled with an uppercase S, but there seemed to be an excessive use of uppercase letters in headings, and I changed  some of them to lowercase, including this one) begins with the following: Located front-roght of the church of Oslob, just outside the perimeter stone fence and near the sea, at the intersection of Calle Aeternidad and the end of Calle Aragones, an unfinished building made of coral blocks resembling a spanish-era barracks stand. I have never heard or read the expression "front-roght" before, but I have seen "roght" used as a misspelling of "right" elsewhere. However, I am pretty sure an encyclopedic article cannot use that wording (it would rather use north, south, each, west or some other unambigous term.

message: :The following move request has concluded. Please do not modify this section. Result was: Move.
* :Shaykh Saduq → 
* :Ebn-e Babooyeh → 
– "Shaykh Saduq" and "Shaikh Sadiq", "as-Saduq" etc do have some claim to be a suitable title by WP:AT. However the title is still WP:HONORIFIC and the Britannica title Ibn Bābawayh has a better claim to WP:COMMONNAME; it is 3x more common in Google Books, it is relatively more stable in number of spelling variations. FWIW, not relevant for en.wp, but it also happens to be more consistent with the Arabic :ar:علي بن بابويه القمي wp but the current title is consistent with Iranian wikipedia :fa:شیخ صدوق. But the fa.wp cemetery article follows the name "Ibn Babawayh Cemetery" Tehran not the honorific title. Don't particularly feel strongly about this nomination, but the move would make the two articles easier for general readers to find. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:40, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Many players are known by their native names, he decided to alter his for ease in English, and especially because it is shown like this on the ATP and ITF's websites, Wiki should reflect that and use Richard.

Talk:Harley Brinsfield

message: I remember " The Harley hour" on WCAO at midnight. They would set aside our rock and roll and this raspy voiced old fellow would lure to Harley's sandwich shop with big band sounds and decriptions of the harleyburger and my favorite the "harley original". The shop on Fayette st was the first. I visited that shop in 1957 and was hooked on the original......Those onions. They made the sandwich. Does anyone knoe how Harley got those onions to taste that good? A friend that I worked with (in a chemical plant) did some neon sign work for Harley at the fayette St. shop and swore that Harley had an apartment above the shop and in that apartment he soaked bermuda onions in tubs of water.
Used to listen to the Harley Show in the car on the way to or from my girlfriend's house. I'd been familiar with New Orleans jazz and big band, but this show opened up the broader jazz world to me. I was thrilled to find this entry in Wikipedia because I've tried for years to remember the tune that opened the show. Wonderful to know that it was "Things Ain't What They Used To Be," but does anyone know which of the hundreds of versions of that song he used for the show? I, of course, haven't heard the show since I moved away from Baltimore some 30+ years ago, but it doesn't sound like Harry James, or Coltrane. I guess it might be Count Basie, or maybe Charlie Barnet or Coleman Hawkins. Does anyone know whose version of the song opened the show? Could it be Bob Scobey's Frisco Band whose band this article indicates closed the show? If so, I can't find a version of "Things Ain't..." by Scobey.
