message: A series of IPs have been attempting to add examples to this section. The changes have been unsourced, sourced to broken refs, or sourced to refs that don't support the claims. There also appears to be some OR in the latest versions   and , which couch  the addition in terms of an objection to the wording of the existing  example. The sources added in the second edit are unrelated to the content.. Does anyone see a problem with using a well-known example that uses the word "alcoholic"?  I find it very difficult to believe that there would be any serious argument that this word is not appropriate for college students as the IPs suggest ("may be debatably acceptable at college level") and we're not suggesting that this mnemonic be taught to elementary school kids.
If there really are reliable sources out there that state that "one of the central problems with crafting mnemonics" is age appropriateness, and that "remoteness from the topic [is] another central problem of mnemonics" lets see them. Maybe there is  a place in the article for such material.. As it is it just looks like WP:OR being used to support the IP's preferred example. Meters (talk) 06:02, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

message: I couldn’t find the Japanese-language talk page.
  
Why does the ja.wikipedia page for “mnemonic” (ニモニック) redirect to “Assembly language” (アセンブリ言語)? Is this an April Fools joke?
  
I’m still new to learn the language, so imaging the surprise when a search for mnemonics gives me assembly language, of all things. I’m not capable of reading through that just yet, so could someone please explain in English? I couldn’t find the Japanese-language “Talk:” page for that, if it even exists.
Update: please explain in a way that I can understand. I don’t know assembly in English, let alone in Japanese. I don’t even know Java. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.212.121.214 (talk) 05:34, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: What the Japanese Wikipedia does is not something English Wikipedia is concerned with, but are you sure it is a redirect and not a link? It would make sense to find links since mnemonics are used in assembler. Meters (talk) 09:15, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

message: The following sentence is wrong:
:Masculine countries in French (le): "Neither can a breeze make a sane Japanese chilly in the USA." (les) Netherlands (Pays-Bas), Canada, Brazil (Brésil), Mexico (Mexique), Senegal, Japan (Japon), Chile (Chili), & (les) USA (États-Unis d'Amérique).
There are 92 countries with masculine names in French, not just eight (see for example,  ), therefore this sentence should either be deleted or the mnemonic corrected if it refers to something else. Sophos II (talk) 21:01, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
