Talk:Seattle Aquarium

message: I tried to fix it up a bit, mainly by removing the colorful verbs and adjectives. I also removed a few sentences. The article is still pretty bad; the focus is mainly on the expansion, with little on the history of the facility and nothing about the other, non-expansion exhibits.

message: Would it be possible for to make another section describing the Aquariums programs throughout the year that would represent their conservation contribution? This could be more informative about the Aquariums goal: "conservation of our marine environment", and also neatly avoid a previous complaints concerning an advertisement-like sound to the article.

Talk:Stereotypical behavior

message: I have seen this term used in the context of human patients with neurological or psycological problems.  If you understand this subject well, it think the article should be modified to explain that this concept doesn't only apply to non-human animals. ike9898 (talk) 16:17, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This article deals exclusively with animal behavior. I suspect that the term, if applied to humans, has a somewhat different meaning, since the disciplines of psychology and neurology have a very different approach. If someone wants to create a separate article for "stereotypical behavior" in humans, it can be disambiguated. --Ginkgo100talk 18:23, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Painted redstart

message: :The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 
The result of the move request was: Moved to Painted redstart. It has been demonstrated that "redstart" satisfies WP:COMMONNAME by a significant margin. While the IOC and IUCN prefer "whitestart" , their weight is still not sufficient to tip the balance over.  No such user (talk) 12:38, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Painted whitestart →  – "redstart" is used far, far more commonly for this species than "whitestart". Of the sources used on this page, the only one to use "whitestart" is from the IUCN, a European-based organisation. On Google Scholar, a search finds 7 results for "painted whitestart" since 2017, all of which are barely relevant. "Painted redstart" gives 74 results, of which the first 4 include the name in the title. I know Google searches can be misleading, but a search for "painted whitestart" gives very few useful results - just Wikipedia, and BirdLife, another European-based organisation (plus eBird which does not use it as the primary name). The first page results also includes a rejected proposal to change the name of species in this genus to "whitestart", and random links to Pinterest and a Youtube video. Meanwhile a search for "painted redstart" returns all the most relevant sources for North American birds and you don't really start finding junk until the third page of results. I have 11 books on the shelf next to me that mention species in this genus, mostly field guides for various areas. 9 use "redstart" exclusively, 1 uses "redstart" but mentions "whitestart", and only one uses "whitestart" primarily, but mentions that "redstart" is commonly used in N America. I think probably this whole genus should be at "redstart" pages, but that's a little less clear when they occur almost exclusively in Spanish-speaking areas. But this species has quite an extensive range into English-speaking areas and it seems pretty clear that "redstart" is way more common and using "whitestart" violates WP:CommonName.

replies: text:  [I wouldn't set much store by that, as the AMS editor permitted anachronism for Todd's 1911 birth as Northern Ireland did not exist until 1921. He was born British, an Ulsterman and an Irishman. However, both Todd and Taussky lived in their native provinces after Northern Ireland was formed and Czechoslovakia was granted independence (1918).] --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 14:20, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

text: It seems that for Taussky, both Czech and Austrian are correct. I think that the Kingdom of Bohemia (České království) existed as an Austro-Hungarian province in 1906. Do any of the books say if she took Czechoslovak citizenship on independence, or indeed when she moved to Vienna? (It might be reasonable to guess that she moved after independence, which was declared when she was 12.) I don't think Todd was English. I'll fix both. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 14:20, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
