Talk:A Mathematical Theory of Communication

message: should create a disambiguation page?
A Mathematical Theory of Communication is a book too written by Warren Weaver in collaboration with Claude Shannon.
Publisher: University of Illinois Press (October 1963)
ISBN: 0252725484
*JA: No, I think that keeping the current title to discuss both is okay.  Simply use "A Mathematical Theory of Communication" for the article and A Mathematical Theory of Communication for the book, per usual conventions.  Jon Awbrey 16:32, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Is it necessary to have a destination? It seems to me as though the receiver could, in principle, be considered the destination to which the signal is transmitted. This receiver then transforms the signal and processes it as information. Perhaps either the destination part could be omitted or changed with another word.24.219.29.168 (talk) 07:03, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

message: 1) It seems like the diagram, currently found in the section Publication, belongs in the section Contents, which is the first place that references the terms introduced in the diagram.
2) Can I suggest renaming the section Contents to Overview? The content within the section is a fairly high level introduction to the topic of the manuscript. The changed section name would also serve to invite further development of the article by someone familiar with the subject. Prime Lemur (talk) 12:14, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

Talk:List of music festivals in Italy

message: I’ve just tidied up a stub on the CIMA Festival (http://www.concertiinmonteargentario.it). It’s a classical music festival held annually, in the summer, since 2002 (or 2003—I couldn’t work out which) in Monte Argentario, Tuscany. I don’t know whether it is of sufficient importance to add to the list: the original author would certainly have thought so. But that editor  seems to concentrate on advocating the career of the Spanish baritone Jorge Chaminé, who is the artistic director of this festival, and so may be prone to over-enthusiasm! —Ian Spackman 10:57, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Old gripe

message: Before I jumped into the ways that cancer is connected to UV radiation I wanted to give background knowledge of what UV light is and its different forms. For people to really understand the dangers of Ultraviolet rays they first need to know what UV light consists of and how it works.Mainly because UV light is not the same as light that can be seen by people it has much more energy and heat. While reasearching UV radiation I came across 3 different types of Ultraviolet light that I was not aware of. I knew about UVB light but was not aware of UVA or UVC radiation. Ercannan (talk) 14:19, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Additions to the Page 

message: I added the background information on the different types of skin cancer because as I was researching UV radiation's effects on the skin I found out that people's beliefs that UV rays cause melanoma may not be true. The more commonly found skin cancers, in direct relation to UVA and UVB radiation, are Squamous Cell and Basal Cell Cancer. New research surfaces every year on this topic so it is very hard to keep track of what is still true and what has been proven to be wrong. But before getting into how these rays can cause cancer I wanted to inform every one on the different kinds of skin caner so when I mention them later in the article there will be no confusion or assumptions that UV light strictly causes melanoma.Ercannan (talk) 21:47, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Additions Continued  

message: Most of the material in the thinly sourced and low-quality Ultraviolet light and cancer article is better developed and referenced in the article Health effects of sun exposure and also Ultraviolet#Skin damage. By contrast, virtually all of Ultraviolet light and cancer was written during a few days in 2006 and 2012 (by a pair of editors who never worked on a Wikipedia article before or since). I would strongly encourage merging any worthwhile material into Health effects of sun exposure and then re-directing to that article.

Talk:Mohammad Taqi Pessian

message: Colonel Pesian was killed in the war with the local tribesmen (which were loyal to Qavam). Bidabadi 12:07, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Though there is little doubt of the existence of Mohammad Taqi Pessian, many of the claims stated on the Wikipedia page are very extreme, often without citation. On the Aerodrome Forum, a website dedicated primarily to World War I aviation, there is a discussion of the legitimacy of the article (see link here). Many of the people on this website are very knowledgeable on the subject matter, and have arisen many points questioning the article's facts. To go along side this, much of the information that is most disputed over was added by a single contributor over the course of one day. Some of these uncited claims include:
* Mohammad Taqi Pessian learning to fly and then transferring to the infantry - From the photographs provided, there is no aviator badge on his tunic. 
* Though the article claims that he shot down 25 aircraft in his service, he only received an Iron Cross, though, a Pour le Mérite would be easily awarded for this accomplishment.
* To make this claim even less a statement in reality, he cannot be found on any German Empire aces lists, where he would have ranked within the top 50 through the entire war.
* The references in the article are scant, and the ones that exist are disputable. The reference called 'faceofiran' (when viewed through archive.org as it was on May 24, 2007, as the page is a 404 error now) is in fact a copy-pasted  article from the Persian Wikipedia on Gholamreza Takhti. (see here)
For these reasons and the others stated by the contributors on the Aerodrome Forum, I placed this article for deletion one week ago, and since one week has come and went, it may now be deleted. Any comments on this may be posted here on alternatively on my talk page. Thanks.
