message: Existing citation (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6470691.stm) of the wiki article uses " from Hong Kong", but are there any citation for his Cantonese background as well as born in HK? A lot of Hong Konger are born in Mainland China and outside Canton Province (now transliterated as Guangdong Province), thus the citation " from Hong Kong" is not sufficient to prove Cantonese "ethnicity" (Cantonese in some publication, is a sub branch of Hans Chinese) and POB.

Talk:Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man

message: The article currently states that the Institute was "also known as Le Prieuré." This is not accurate. Le Prieuré is the building which housed the Institute during its stay in Fontainebleau. However, the Institute existed in three other cities before finally settling in Fontainbleau. And from the perspective of Le Prieuré, the building served other functions both before and after the Institute resided there. The Institute is only a small part of its history.
Mention should be made of the Institute's existence in Tiflis, Constantinople and Dresden. Perhaps this can go into a History section.

Talk:Perpetual Calendar of 800 Years

message: The image Perp7.jpg is marked "All rights reserved CopyRight protected." so it is not permitted on Wikipedia per WP:COPY. Wikipedia uses GFDL, which allows anyone to copy the image at any time. If Satbahadur is the creator, then that statement must be removed before it can be included in a Wikipedia article. — Joe Kress 18:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyright protection

message: The original article on 12 March 2007 by Satbahadur claims that his calendar displayed in the image was developed in 2500 BCE by Hindus. This claim is repeated in the image. Actually, it is the Gregorian calendar, which was developed by the Roman Catholic Church in 1582. Because all months in the image are 31 days, the user has to know that some Gregorian months terminate after 28, 29 or 30 days. The Gregorian calendar actually repeats in 400 years, not 800 years. The other textual claims are already repeated in various Hindu articles. This article should be deleted, not merged. — Joe Kress 07:56, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge suggestion

message: As discussed above, this article is only a vehicle to present Satbahadur's flawed (and copyrighted) version of the Gregorian calendar, which has nothing whatsoever to do with Hindu calendars. As such, I am redirecting the title to Buddhist calendar, some versions of which actually do repeat every 800 years—the Hindu calendar repeats in 432,000 years, a Kali Yuga, hence is not perpetual. — Joe Kress (talk) 22:37, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Kester Berwick

message: The title of the play by Denys Amiel and André Obey directed by Kester Berwick in 1946 is given as Swirling, but this seems a little unlikely.  The University of Adelaide Theatre Guild's web page cited in the References section gives the title as Swirling Madame, but since it also has "Denys Ariel" rather than "Denys Amiel" as a co-author, it may not be entirely reliable.  The play is presumably an English translation of La Souriante Madame Beudet (1921), which was adapted for the film of the same name a year later, so perhaps the title should really be The Smiling Madame Beudet.

Talk:Digital textbook

message: It's been quite a bit of time (2009?) since this page had much attention. I made some pretty significant changes (WP:BOLD), but this was based on the idea that the original page was focused on one digital textbook project in Korea, and a lot of the content seemed inappropriate or dated to me (like original research or advocacy). This is a major issue in education research and policy across the world right now. I think we should work on an overall plan for how to expand this article from here. Personally, I think we should try to stay away from making this into another big list of countries (as has happened in the public libraries article) and try to focus on a more concise version that is broadly applicable and covers all of the major issues: cost, current research, advantages and disadvantages, how this issue affects students with disabilities, etc. -Libraryowl (talk) 21:07, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Black box theory

message: I know the 'example' does not fit with the way Wikipedia normally describes things but it was the only way I could think of to express what Black Box theory is.  The story told in the "Example" section is a paraphrase of what my College teacher Dr. Beyres (Doctorate in law) told us in his Public Speaking class. There is no wealth like knowledge, no poverty like ignorance. - Ali ibn Abi-Talib (talk) 07:19, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure I'd agree that it's a "fairly popular" explanation of psychology and this article makes it sound a lot broader than it really is. It is a description of the behaviourist approach, but I don't know of any well-known psych researchers who believe that a behavioural explanation offers anything like a complete or satisfying map of the territory. The main premise of the black box theory, that you cannot open a human mind, is almost certainly not valid due to the increasing precision and detail of measurements of brain activity. A recent example getting popular press was an experiment where researchers were able to predict from subconscious brain activity which button participants would press, several seconds before they were aware of having made a choice. Unless you subscribe to Cartesian dualism or something similar, you must have a theory of mind that relies on real physical processes and by definition these must be knowable, even if our knowledge is currently imperfect / limited. 203.217.150.68 (talk) 05:09, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  TAKE NOTE OF THIS 

message: 1. The last part of the introduction and the beginning of the "Life" section are contradicting each other. Periboea is given as daughter of Cychreus and Alcathous. The article on Periboea says she was daughter of either one of the two kings mentioned above. The rest of the "Life" section eventually points this out but the confusion is added already. It doesn't look good. This should be corrected.
2. "In other versions of the myth Cychreus' daughter is named Glauce"
A source is needed for this.
3. "Telamon also figures in both versions of Heracles' sacking of Troy, which was ruled by King Laomedon (or Tros in the alternate versions)."
Where are the alternate versions coming from?
4. "Hercules was about to cut him down with his sword when Telamon began to quickly assemble an altar out of nearby stones in honor of Hercules."

Talk:Form of the Good

message: We don't start articles with the article so I'm moving this to "Form of the Good"
::I don't know who wrote the above, but in any case this seems a bad choice. It insists before the reader even starts that any concept of the Good involves a theory of forms.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 07:48, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed with Andrew. In addition, the term "Form" is not accurate. It should be titled "Idea of the Good". As explained in _Altared Ground_ by Brian Schroeder on page 34, "Plato never refers to the Good as εἶδον, only as ἰδέα." And εἶδον is translated as "form," while ἰδέα is translated as "idea." So the Good is only "the condition of being for the rest of the forms," it is not necessarily a form itself. Zubachi (talk) 18:15, 21 April 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Great Unity

message: I removed the following passage:
"This sort of society was found in the Xia, Shang and early Zhou dynasties, when the great Tao was operating, through the outstanding leaders of those times. Confucius described himself as being incapable of achieving the Great Unity and aspired to do so; he was living in a Small Tranquility (小康) society, where the great Tao had been hidden, the states were ruled by different families and the people loved their own parents and children only."
If the "Great Unity" is a utopian vision (and it certainly is, if not a dystopian one) then "this sort of society" was certainly NOT found anywhere, least of all during the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. Str1977 (talk) 19:13, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
