Talk:Potomac, Maryland

message: Are there any sources for the affluency stuff, esp. the 90210 show?  Also, I'd like to tone down "rich professionals" as it almost seems derogative.  Any comments?  --Sarcasticninja 03:57, Aug 3, 2004 (UTC)
Why should it be toned down? It's true. Trust me, I know. I live five minutes away. - Big Brother
The Beverly Hills 90210 is indeed a fact.  I'll look into citing it.  It also appears in the Beverly Hills 90210 article here on Wikipedia.
Now, your other point is probably something that should be fixed.  The list itself is quiet long and difficult to read.  Someone (perhaps me) should look at other affluent neighborhoods and see how Notable Residency is handled. Edaru 21:37, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Affluency 

message: This article needs major help. It's completely unsourced, appears to be WP:OR and most of the article is a list of notable residents which is WP:Trivia. Toddstreat1 01:02, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur. I went through and reformatted the article to conform a bit better with the WikiProject:Cities format, removed the redlinked "celebrities", and tagged the neighborhoods section as unencyclopedic. That whole section reads like a real estate brochure, and adds nothing to the article except fluff. It appears that most of the editing of this article is vandalism and reversion rather than actual improvements, which is rather pathetic. I just added the WikiProject Maryland template, which might get some knowledgeable editors to fix this fiasco. Horologium t-c 12:17, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Cleanup

message: I got rid of the "peacock terms" on the Copenhaver neighborhood article. 
The comments on it were pretty much just promoting the neighborhood's features.
I am going to clean-up all of the peacock terms in the neighborhood section soon (note the 
peacock notice on top of the neighborhood section).
Are we realators or Wikipedians? This advertising isn't appropriate for Wikipedia articles.
Sections about neighborhoods should be brief, not a huge paragraph on how great the neighborhood's
pools and tennis courts are. 
Tell me if you want them back, but I strongly disagree. (Wikipedian1234 (talk) 00:24, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Sandia Peak Tramway

message: While true that "cable cars" can refer to aerial tramways, it is far more likely that a "cable car" refers to a streetcar running on a cable such as those in San Francisco.  It is for this reason that the article on Aerial tramways is separate from the article on Cable cars.  There's no need to throw in additional nouns to describe something whice is completely described by the article itself and the first link to Aerial tramway.  Also, if we're abbreviating kilometers, shouldn't we abbreviate miles?  --ABQCat 04:57, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

message: Is this paragraph about the specific fire-proofing necessary?
:According to NIST NCSTAR report, in 1969, BLAZE-SHIELD D fireproofing was used, a mixture of cement and asbestos fibers. When its use was discontinued, the spraying proceeded with one of three different sprayed fire-resistive material (SFRM) insulation: BLAZE-SHIELD DC/F, BLAZE-SHIELD II, or vermiculite plaster, which was coated on the trusses, perimeter columns, spandrels, and one or more surfaces of the core columns.

thread_title:  Is BLAZE-SHIELD D necessary? 

message: When was WT7 evacuated? I assume that the two big towers were evacuated immediately after impact. I'm not sure if they evacuated both towers after the first impact, or if the evacuation of the south tower didn't begin until it was hit. But I have no idea at all about WT7, since it wasn't hit. Did they evacuate it immediately on impact? Or did the evacuation begin when it got hit with the debris that started the fires? The article is silent on this question. The section on the collapse of WT7 says that "Some firefighters entered 7 World Trade Center to search the building." It says nothing about anybody else that may have been there. It also says that "…the sprinkler system required manual initiation of the electrical fire pumps." This information would be more useful if I knew if there were still people there to do this. And did the fire fighters turn those pumps on? Also, the article has a section called "Emergency response and evacuation," but it never discusses evacuation. I would like to see answers to these questions in the article. MiguelMunoz (talk) 00:15, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Ultimately it should be up to the reader to determine the level of information they wish to see - not the author - so on this basis the more information available, the greater the choice available to the reader - as long as it is clearly indicated that the options are available - and available through proper indexing rather than merlely the availability of a search engine. --JohnArmagh 06:27, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

The new Opel/Vauxhall Vectra is an Epsilon car as of last year (see this page - looks just like a Malibu!).  Holden may have a different Vectra - not sure.  --Stephen 11:49, Aug 3, 2004 (UTC)
I can't imagine why they'd engineer an Australia-only Epsilon. Holden will either keep selling the Vecrta as their midsize or a North American Epsilon car (Malibu, etc.). Maybe you're confusing it with the next-gen' RWD Commadore? -- stewacide
People, the 2008 Malibu is still Epsilon I.
Does anyone know where the chassis for this platform is being made? I have also heard that a large program has been awarded to Martin Rea for production in China....
Isn't Cobalt a Delta, Cobalt is not a mid-size car, is a compact and even EPA considers it a sub-compact.
Does anyone know what the actual differences between the Epsilon platform used by Saab and the rest of GM are? Might be worth some information to the article to substantiate the claim. As far as I know the rear suspension has some differences though both are 4-link designs, is it just a slightly different bushing at the short link for the `reaxis' implementation or is there more to it?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.252.128.18 (talk) 00:21, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Theory of value (economics)

message: The intro refers to "a pamphlet" published in 1738 re. labor theory of value, but give no citation. I added "citation needed", then went to look for it -- I could not find any trace of such a pamphlet or article. The nearest I could find was Daniele Bernoulli, "Specimen Theoriae Novae de Mensura Sortis" (https://archive.org/details/SpecimenTheoriaeNovaeDeMensuraSortis), but it's not clear that's what someone intended. Recommend deleting this reference entirely unless someone can find the/a relevant source. Caveat: I am not an economist. Perhaps the reference is obvious to an actual economist -- if you are that economist, please add a specific citation.

Hello.
I have some questions:
1. Is Diarmait the same character as Diarmuid Ua Duibhne ? AFAIK, it was Diarmuid Ua Duibhne who ran off with Grainne. And Diarmuid was son of Caer by Aengus, and not of Danu (Don).
2. what are the seakings? I can't find this word in any dictionary
In Friendship, Critto
:A web search on "Diarmid bound the sea kings" confirmed a hunch of mine that "seakings" ought to have been "sea-kings", the capture or binding of whom Diarmid (however you wish to spell it - I am Scots) accomplished at Fionn's behest.

Fred-Chess 12:53, September 10, 2005 (UTC)
:Thanks again, Fred. Sorry to be so quick to jump in with something negative every time; it's just that I've had a lot of time to think of a those negative angles during the long time I've been chasing images. :-( See how the album cover template says "to illustrate the album or single in question" in bold ? The article isn't about those albums, in fact they aren't mentioned in it. We might have a slim chance if we found a cover pic of one of Cornelis' original records (see discography, but Google doesn't hold out much hope). Those are at least mentioned on the page, and they could quite appropriately be mentioned in the actual text, too. Whereas the two above are unfortunately a couple of the many anthologies published after CV's death (or possibly before, not sure, but it doesn't make any difference). It's a shame, the Svenska Klassiker portrait is great! :-( Incidentally, the situation's just the same with the book cover I put in before: the article's not about the book, so we don't get to use that image either.

It's true that Nord-Ost means "North-East" in German, but shouldn't it be pointed out that the German or Dutch names of the points of the compass are commonly used in Russian as spoken by seamen?
@unsigned and undated poster: If it's true, it should be added with a reliable reference. It seems very relevant.
"No original research", "Neutral point of view", and "Verifiability" are the three core content policies that determine the type and quality of material acceptable in articles. Any notable addition should hopefully be fine if you follow these, but there are a ton of other guidelines that other editors can help you with if they think you violated any. If you don't want to edit the page because you're not sure about the policies linked, maybe you can post your new content on the article's talk page with their sources and request for other editors to check and publish them for you.
