Talk:Infinite Ryvius

message: Many of the sections in this article are written like press releases, or even like they were ripped from the latest movie trailer.  Triikan 11:52, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sections Rewritten 

message: As the original creator of this page and the one who was largely responsible for expanding it into its current incarnation, I will state for the record that the Japanese-romanised spelling of Ms. Shinozaki's name was 'Fina'. I have seen it as such in all promotional and officially-licensed material from Japan, including the Ryvius artbooks. It was only after the North American release that the name was re-dubbed as 'Faina', possibly for the Americans not knowing how to pronounce her name until they heard it. The issue has been addressed on Shinozaki-san's own article as an alternate spelling. For the sake on continuity, I will be reverting all instances of Shinozaki's name back to 'Fina'. If the anomynous user wishes to discuss this, the talk page is here for your use. I await your reply. -- Euryale 01:04, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Gdańsk Research Society

message: Would it not have been called the Danzig Research Society, considering that at the time the cities name WAS Danzig (IE, prior to the Polish invasion)?
-----
Yes, it was called Naturforschende Gesellschaft Danzig, because that was the official city name. 
However this Wikipedia is oversaturated with Polish Patriots, who care for only one thing and that is: as many Wikipedia articles as they can possibly get away with, absolutely have to have Polish names, Polish titles, Polish language as much as possible (with a little bit of English sprinkled in). MG
----------
The name of the city was ALWAYS Gdańsk. It was founded in 980 by the Poles. Gdańsk Research Society on the other hand was founded in 1743 when the city was an integral part of Poland since 1466. What invasion are you talking about? What is "IE". "Id est"? Then it's spelled "i.e.". Thank you for calling me a patriot instead of a nationalist, for a change.

Talk:List of cowboys and cowgirls

message: Curious to know how other folks feel about this. I'm as much of an RDR/RDR2 fan as the next person, but it feels like this list either needs to be completely exhaustive, listing every fictional cowboy that's ever existed, or it needs to be trimmed down to cowboys of note. I think John Marston and Arthur Morgan are fine additions as the main characters for their respective entries in the series, but listing out the remaining characters in the games who don't even have their own Wikipedia pages seems excessive.

Talk:Corellian Corvette

message: I heard a rumor that a Corellian corvette once reached a theoretical super-shield state by over charging its shield generators. In this temporary but nearly impervious state, it punched clear through the bridge of an Imperial Star Destroyer. Can anyone verify this rumor?
===Basically correct...===
In a cutscene in the original X-Wing game, the corvette Ram's Head was equipped with an experimental shield technology and rammed a drydock full of ISDs. Canonicity is debatable, since the incident and the tech were (AFAIK) never mentioned again.
:I think that the super shield technology was mentioned again, but only once. I think that it might have been in the Defender of the Empire add-on pack for Tie fighter where a renegade Imperial team tried to recreate the super shield technology, or maybe it was in an X-Wing add-on pack. - perfectblue 18:34, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia Signpost/2005-01-10/Arbitration report

message: Great report. Thank you very much. I wanted to know the workings of ArbiCom since people talked about it from time to time on Japanese Wikipedia. Do we need to adopt the system, is the question that's been long in the minds of some active Japanese Wikipedians. But we still do not know well about AC.

thread_title:  Vandalism 

message: What atrocities were commited by Iran? The article claimed that during the Iraq-Iran war, atrocities were commited by BOTH sides. But it doesn't state what atrocities were carried out by the Iranians. Thus, I removed this point. Also, the claim that Iran used chemical weapons in Halabja is just stupid. That city was HELD by Iran at that time, why in the world would they gas their OWN troops? I left a modified claim in the article, even in the absence of credible sources.
*Do you think that Stephen C Pelletiere, senior CIA political analyst on Iraq during Iran-Iraq war was a stupid? My source: an article by Stephen C Pelletiere in NY Times 31 January 2003 . Please, cite your sources on Stephen C Pelletiere's stupidity. If you have no ones, the article should reflect facts mentioned in Stephen C Pelletiere's article. Cmapm 12:36, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

:The Reagan administration gave Saddam roughly $40 billion worth of arms in the 1980s to fight Iran, nearly all of it on credit. 
The French and the Soviets armed Iraq. The US gave him money and intelligence. It's an important distinction. Ellsworth 00:36, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Walter Lafeber, America, Russia, and the Cold War (New York, 2002), p. 358 refers to $40 billion worth of arms and this is a rock solid source. Nevertheless, I'll change it to 'aid' as a compromise because I honestly don't have time for an extended debate on this right now. 172 01:52, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Leonid Isaakovich Mandelshtam

message: in Russian Raman scattering is called "combination light scattering" (from combination of frequencies). It is difficult to translate correctly , because combinatorial has the flavor and meaning from combinatorics. Again, in Russian combinatorial=kombinatornoe and what is needed is "kombinazionnoe". I will be gald if somebody offers better translation, but combinatorial is almost certainly wrong. Google shows several "combination". I would probably use "combinational", but I thought that "combination" might be an established term.
: You are right, I defer. The case is moot anyway. It appears that whenever a Russian article is translated into English, the term is always translated as Raman scattering. --Gene s 08:23, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: (Copied from Talk:Korea)
I've just added an image to the Template:Korea-geo-stub, featuring a map and the yin/yang. Basically the image is the map superimposed on a slightly rotated yin-yang in such way that the red area almost exactly coincides with North Korea and the blue with South Korea. I realise that any image relating to the whole Korean peninsula is likely to be a diplomatically thorny item, so can I ask regular posters to this topic (especially any Koreans) to check that the image is not "culturally insensitive". if it is, then please feel free to change it before it causes any offence!

thread_title:  "Men" POV? 

message: Shouldn't this be "hyperpolyglottism" (double t)? I note that dictionary.com has either a single or a double t for "polyglot(t)ism". However, the single t makes the preceding vowel look as though it should be long (IPA /əʊ/ [UK], /oʊ/ [US]) rather than short (IPA /ɒ/ [UK], /ɑ/ [US]). — Paul G 11:28, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spelling of "hyperpolyglotism" 

message: "There are several theories as to why some people can easily learn many different languages, while others only ever learn one."  What does that mean?  Are we supposed to be comparing polyglots to people who tried and failed to learn other languages, or to people who never tried in the first place?  If the former, it should say "... others can only ever learn one"; if the latter, we are not talking about neurology at all!  Lfh 13:28, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Incidentally I would like to delete both List of polyglots (requested but rejected) and Hyperpolyglot (as not being a notable word). Redirecting Hyperpolyglot to Mulitlingualism and adding the word to some sort of a Trivia section there may make some sense. Mlewan 06:57, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:United States antitrust law

message: It looks like User:Wikidea improperly tried to expand this article in April 2013 by dumping in a very rough bullet-point outline of antitrust case law which is (1) difficult to read and (2) does not comply with the Manual of Style.  The correct way to write about the law is to write in prose and then cite in footnotes to relevant cases, statutes, treatises, or law review articles. 
It's been almost ten years.  The test of time has demonstrated that no one has the time, energy, interest, or passion to fix this mess.  Anyone who litigates antitrust law regularly enough to develop a deep understanding of the subject (which would not include me) is too busy working for their paying clients or polishing their next law review article to clean up this train wreck.  
Any objections before I take out the trash?  I propose to excise all the bullet-point garbage and pare this article back down to readable prose sections. Then hopefully people who actually know this area of law can expand from there. --Coolcaesar (talk) 15:20, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

message: This article contains a lot of incomplete information, lacks balance and is inadequately backed up by references - the biography section contains no citations!
As previously mentioned, there is a lack of treatment and proof for the controversy that surrounds the Hotel Rwanda film and Rusesabagina's role during the Genocide. I have noticed that there is also no mention of Rusesabagina's political career. 
As I complete more background research, I will try and improve the general quality and balance of the information.
