Talk:Poser figures

message: ;Greetings
:The Poser Figures page tries to identify and explain all the different Poser Figures.  The history of Poser Figures is probably less than 10 years but the number of figures has grown astronomically.
:Therefore, I would like to be able to list all of the Poser Figure families and give a bit of their history before we have all forgotten where these came from.
:Any help will be appreciated!  Robert Elliott 07:43, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pairs trade

message: I remember reading in a Financial Times pull-out I think, about some trader who used this method long ago, probably when the ticker-tape or telegraph had just come into use. The trader made and lost a few fortunes, and eventually comitted suicide. So its wrong to write that it was invented in the 1980s.  92.29.113.54 (talk) 20:43, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Steven Timothy Judy

message: The referenced article in the Sarasota newspaper provides the details that Judy had foster parents, his foster father being Robert Carr. It also says Judy's natural father was "Vernon Carr". So it is unclear how he came to be surnamed "Judy". The prosecutor's site has photos, but I don't know what their license status is. No idea if Judy had any occupation other than "criminal". He had no serious girlfriend at the time of his final arrest.Tkotc (talk) 20:18, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The newspaper article which gave his birth father the surname "Carr" seems to have been in error.

Talk:Baddaginnie, Victoria

message: There are references which suggest a Sinhalese origin of Baddaginnie; it was not named by anyone working on the railway line, it was not named by the surveyor of the township- it was named from Baddaginnie Creek which name had already existed from about 1840 (Hume and Hovell crossed the creek, as did Thomas Mitchell though there is no evidence in their respective diaries that they gave it a name) the town, most likely, have been named Warrambayne or similar after the parish it is in except Warrambayne pastoral station was extant to the south. Baddaginnie is a typical 2-syllable/2-syllable English interpretation  of an aboriginal word or phrase; If Tarranginnie or Towaninnie on Hinnomunjie are Sinhalese, then perhaps Baddaginnie is. For more ridiculous placename etymology see Crows Nest, Queensland and Cracow, Queensland (Crusoe8181 (talk) 10:36, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: here is a reference for meaning of placenames in the area. Thomas Nixon was the surveyor, he was born near Devenish in Ireland (so clearly Devenish was not named after a wife of aboriginal leader! Parish of Warrenbayne was clearly named from the existing squatting run Warrambayne (typo? or looked better?) not after the non-existent squatters Warren & Bayne!! ... and there are more!! Baddagisnnie Creek was possibly first formally named by Nixon, from the local informal name (it flowed through Warrambayne run and would have had a name). Somewhere there is a very imaginative and totally unreliable local history which has generated incorrect etymologies, and in that case we should reject the reference for Baddaginnie (Nixon came to Australia directly from Ireland already qualified as a surveyor) (Crusoe8181 (talk) 04:18, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Littleton High School (Colorado)

message: has added Tim T. Kelly to the notable alumni list without providing evidence that Kelly attended this school. The linked article and the cited source do not mention this high school.  Names added to the list require evidence that they are notable and that they attended the school.  A reliable source is missing that confirms attendance. Gab4gab (talk) 13:01, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: You really want a source that says Tim T. Kelly who is known for Nat. Geo. programs attended Littleton.  A year book that shows Tim T. Kelly attended doesn't really make the connection that he is the same Tim T. Kelly. His biography article mentions that he grew up in Colorado but that doesn't seem to be sourced and doesn't include his birth date. Many schools have a list of famous alumni that would be considered reliable but I haven't found one for Littleton. You could add a cite book reference to the year book - give the title, year published, publisher, page number.  Still, unless it has something that shows it's the same guy it doesn't really get the job done. If he simply mentioned his high school on his Linkedin page that would work.

message: I rated this article a stub because I have more questions after reading this article than before I started assessing it.
* Why was this person put to death?
* Why was this person sentenced to death?
* Why was this person convicted?
* Why is this person alleged to be a murderer?
* Why is this article sufficiently notable to be retained by Wikipedia?
* Why is this article still a very basic stub article?
And these are just some of the why questions I have! Can YOU improve this article to answer at least one of my questions? While you are at it, consider answering some other questions like:
* Who did this person allegedly murder?
* What are the circumstances of the alleged murder?
* When did the alleged murder happen?
* Where did the alleged murder happen?
* How did this all come about?

message: Why would Tangut be written 'left-to-right' as in Modern Chinese? Shouldn't it be right to left as Chinese was back in that time period?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reboot01 (talk • contribs) 14:17, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't consider that either Chinese or Tangut were written right-to-left, but rather vertically in columns running right-to-left. As far as I know true rtl format (horizontal lines of rtl text running top-to-bottom down the writing surface) was never used for Chinese or Tangut. In cases such as image captions where text seems to be written rtl, in reality it is formatted in vertical columns of one character length written right-to-left. But from Wikipedia's perspective all that is irrelevant, as Wikipedia must reflect actual modern usage, and modern usage is to write Tangut left-to-right.

I would prefer to use Miyake's phonetic notation rather than the phonetic reconstructions given in Li Fanwen's and Kychanov's dictionaries, but I think that there is an argument for using his complex notation rather than his simplified notation when giving the reading of individual Tangut characters, otherwise some characters may appear to be homophones when actually there is a difference in reading and/or tone.
