Talk:Quality of service

message: The text: "These bits were later re-defined as DiffServ Code Points (DSCP) and are largely honored in peered links on the modern Internet." seems to indicate that routers at Internet exchanges etc. use the DiffServ bits when prioritising packets to be sent.  This did not strike me as correct, and later it says clearly that DiffServ is not widely deployed on the Internet.  Can someone with direct knowledge of peering connections between ISPs and of core routers at Internet exchanges clarify or correct this? Robin Whittle 07:20, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Free trade

message: I modified the wording about free trade being "" because this is a value judgment that depends on the social welfare function used. The only welfare function under which a net increase in economic surplus necessarily results in a net gain for society is the Benthamite welfare function, which does not take inequality into account. Since many people believe that inequality is important, we either have to state outright that we are equating economic surplus and social welfare for the purposes of the article or avoid value-laden terms like societal loss in the economics section.

replies: text: I don't think you had any grounds to modify that wording. Free trade being a "large and unambiguous net gain for society" is worded in a way that's completely consistent with the opinions of the vast majority of economists.Jonathan f1 (talk) 11:54, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

message: It's one small line in the article, but the wording is problematic and shouldn't become a habit on here. In the Colonialism section it says,
"Free-trade debates and associated matters involving the colonial administration of Ireland.."
Describing Ireland's status in the 19th and early 20th Century as "colonial" or "postcolonial" is controversial, hotly debated and disputed by a significant number of scholars in and outside of Ireland. The reliable sources saying as much are numerous.
This line needs to be rewritten in more neutral wording consistent with the encyclopedia's standards.Jonathan f1 (talk) 02:13, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Guided missile

message: This is looking more and more like an illustrated list of guided missiles, or even list of U.S. Navy guided missiles. A couple of pictures are good, but the detail and pictures of each missile should be in a separate article about that missile. -- John Owens 20:52 27 May 2003 (UTC)
* Looks more like a list of German WWII missiles to me...
**I'm thinking maybe we should have some more history on missile guidance? The fact that we went almost completely from guns to missiles post-WWII is pretty significant, so if this article can cover the development from early German research to today's Sidewinders and AMRAAMs then that'd be nice.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.226.229.155 (talk) 01:09, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Talk:Technology hype

message: Is it easier to have a list of hyped technologies, or a list of unhyped technologies? :-) Astudent 03:36 28 May 2003 (UTC)
-----
The labeling of particular technologies as "hyped" is probably not in keeping with the Wikipedia policy on maintaining a neutral point of view in articles. It would be better to give particular examples of supposed "hype" claims, the persons who made them, and the persons who consider them to be "hype" rather than factual or well-founded predictions.
It's possibly less problematic to label a technology as hyped if it can be reasonably said to have flopped -- that is, failed to meet specific expectations which were artificially created by hype. This is definitely the case (in your examples) of only the "push technology" and many-but-not-all "dot-coms". Computers, Windows, Java, the iMac, the Internet, and free software are all rather popular and cannot be said to have flopped in any sense.
However, we already have a list of major flops for that purpose. --FOo 04:40 28 May 2003 (UTC)
-----
I've rewritten the article. I hope the changes are not objected to.
My basic claim is that hype does not require that the hype be unjustified.
People hype things all the time, on purpose, in order to cause excitement. That doesn't mean that the hype is unjustified.
Further, there is the phenomenon of the public not getting excited by something that was hyped, but nonetheless important and life-changing.
Consider the adoption of cell phones.
I've removed the list of particular technologies that someone thought were inappropriately hyped. It seems very POV, and certaintly not encyclopedic. (Going into Ubuntu, for example, is a very niche thing. There are plenty of technologists out there who do not know what Ubuntu is, and would be very confused to see it.)

Talk:Green Party faction (Bundestag)

message: Hmm, either word can kind of work in most of the places, but shouldn't most or all uses of the word "fraction" here, including the title, be replaced by "faction"? -- John Owens 05:39 28 May 2003 (UTC)

::Moved. -- Schnee 16:11 23 Jun 2003 (UTC)
:::I believe the word "faction" really only applies to an informal group with specific aims within a larger group (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_faction). The Bundestag itself refers to the "Fraktionen" as "parliamentary groups" (http://www.bundestag.de/htdocs_e/parliament/groups/index.html), so if no one objects, I'd like to replace all uses of "faction" here with "parliamentary group".

Talk:Virtuosity

message: Is there any way to find out who did the theme and what it is called? I'm referring to the trance/techno/whatever music that plays during the intro and -- if I remember correctly -- the credits at the end.
I've seen it labelled "Rammstein - Kokain", but I am not aware of Rammstein ever having performed an instrumental track like that. The soundtrack isn't much help with that either -- none of the samples Amazon offers seem to be from the actual intro music. -- 80.135.221.208 21:41, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what you're looking for when you're asking for the "theme". If you mean the music playing in the beginning, it's the track, "A Big Day In The North" by The Heads (formally the group, Talking Heads).  -- Trakx 13:09, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Chlothar II

message: The lede said he was born AFTER the death of his father.  
But later on we have:
* Under Frankish customs, newborns did not receive names initially, in order not to spread concern related to the symbolic name of the Merovingian. Wanting to choose a name based on the development of unrest in the kingdom of the Franks, his father did not baptize him immediately. ... Chilperic and Fredegund desired to protect their child, since his young dead predecessors may have been victims of murder, and there was much political intrigue at the time. He was raised in secret in the royal villa in Vitry-en-Artois to avoid detection.
That stands in utter contrast with the information that Chilperic was dead before Chlothar was even born.  Can we please clarify this ASAP?  --  Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 19:23, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Apparently not. fr.wikipedia states that his father died entre les 20 et 28 septembre 584, and that Clothar II was born en mai 584. Surtsicna (talk) 20:33, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Ngram seems to suggest it's 6 of one, half dozen of the other (my personal preference then being Clothar II since the Latin form Clotharius seems more common), but both should be in the lead sentence and only one should be used for the title and the running text both. — LlywelynII 09:27, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

message: I'd never heard most of these claims before, it seems that someone's using this Wikipedia entry to settle personal scores and slag off Stewart Home. This account is innacurate, partisan, one-sided. I think you'd better work on it, and we should take care that nobody tries to insert it again. --- R.B.
::I remember some of this stuff in Vague Magazine many years ago.  Home was associated with the magazine when it published a piece called "The Animal Front is a Nazi Front".  All very amusing, but god knows where anyone would find a reliable account of the actual facts with Wiki-worthy references.

It's not clear when America will find the right number of department stores that can survive against e-commerce, Walmart, Amazon, and Zara, and now fast fashion sites like Shein and Temu.
