Talk:Tsou people

message: Apparently the Tsou language may be one of the few (or the only) language that uses pulmonic ingressive sounds distinctively. Though this claim was disputed by Ladefoged and Zeitoun in the 90s.

*I seem to recall coming across some mention of that too, tho I may be confabulating. If you can scare up some verifiable seconday sources, that would be a good thing to add to Tsou language. In fact, that whole article reeks of stubbiness. Some TLC would be a boon to the universe. Thanks!--Ling.Nut 19:07, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I keep seeing conflicting information as to whether Bunun music is "eight-part harmony" or sung according to an "eight-note scale". These are vastly different concepts.

message: I think he fits the notability requirements:
:*Major local political figures who receive (or received) significant press coverage. Just being an elected local official does not guarantee notability.
:*Persons achieving renown or notoriety for their involvement in newsworthy events 
:and
:*The person has been the primary subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the person. (Multiple similar stories describing a single day's news event only count as one coverage.)

Talk:Mikhail Ostrogradsky

message: Perhaps a minor point, but given that he spent his career in the Russian Empire, would it make sense to use pre-1918 reform orthography in the Russian variant of his name? I should think that it was the official form back then, but not sure if this will improve the article. The Ukrainian rendering of his name likewise seems to be given in its modern form; the situation with historical orthography in Ukrainian is even more complicated (apparently a number of standards were developed and used in different parts of the country since the 18th century). I suppose any such pursuit after historical accuracy runs the danger of opening a can of worms as the principle should be applied to all other mathematicians from that era. Would anyone care to share an opinion? Stablenode (talk) 17:35, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Russian spelling of Ostrogradsky's name 

message: Until the 8th of January 2020 Ostrogradsky had been defined as a "Ukrainian mathematician, mechanician and physicist in the Russian Empire" in the lead section. The information was verified by the following sources:
# 
# 
However, user User:Beliknol (whose account has been blocked indefinitely because the account's owner has abusively used multiple accounts) deleted the sources as "questionable" (from his point of view) ones, changed Ostrogradsky's nationality and added two other sources instead. I looked through the two new sources, and none of them seems to verify the information added by the user. Therefore, I am changing the lead to its previous version and mentioning the reasoning here to avoid any possible editing conflicts. M. Humeniuk (talk) 18:36, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
