Talk:Gil Schwartz

message: Is the bit about Mill Valley being among the top 10 places to live at all relevant to this article?  Can it simply go away?
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is not impartial and has self-serving POVs all over the place:
In January of 1996, a fatuous, drunken journalist who had happened to work with Bing at Esquire decided to share what had been a closely held secret since 1984 with a mean-spirited reporter from the New York Times. And so it was that on a Monday morning, as a blizzard hit New York, the Times published a breathless article revealing that Bing was actually Schwartz, who worked for a big media company. 
Did Bing write this article?  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thomas AM (talk • contribs). 
Yes, he did.  He wrote it as  on 16 November 2006.  Lazenby is a character that Stanley Bing frequently mentions in his columns.Jmkleeberg (talk) 21:44, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: And I certainly don't think it disqualifies the article, or Wikipedia.
Stanley Bing is a character, not a real person. So it is only very proper, clever and fun that his bio is writen by his creator. I see it as one more virtue of the whole system of open contributions, and a source of pride for Wikipedia.
I emphaticaly motion to keep it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmellof (talk • contribs) 12:10, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Of course he wrote it 

message: Is there any reason why instead of saying "CBS", the article says, "big media company" with a link to CBS?  I would think since this is an encyclopedia, that we should just be saying CBS, and not provide a link/clue, that sends us to CBS.
I think CBS should be put in there.  But I will hold off a bit on this, to see if anyone can justify why we should NOT change it to CBS.  Asc85 (talk) 01:41, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

message: I've added a citation for the January 1996 Times article that reveals Bing's identity.  The article does not indicate whether its author worked with him at Esquire, so I've put a verification tag on that.  I've also removed the "unsuccessfully tried to raise issues" bit; the "unsuccessfully" is completely subjective, and while I think the "tried to raise issues" part is probably true, I felt reaching that conclusion required too much synthesis to include in the WP article.  --some jerk on the Internet  (talk)  15:57, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

message: I'm not aware of any publication or OpenGL programmer who would use the word "ARB" for the shading language used in the ARB_vertex_program and ARB_fragment_program. ARB stands for "architecture review board", which has adopted these extension, that's why these extensions have this prefix, but the programming language is not called ARB. You might say "ARB shader" or "ARB program" if you refer to a shader for the ARB_vertex_program and ARB_fragment_program extentions, but it still doesn't mean that the programming language is "ARB". Thus, a better title would be "ARB shading language" (or maybe "ARB assembly language"). I'm going to move and correct the article unless someone can provide evidence that the shading language in ARB_vertex_program and ARB_fragment_program is commonly referred to as "ARB".  --Martin Kraus (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 11:34, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I've moved the page to "ARB assembly language" because one might argue that "ARB shading language" is ambiguous (GLSL is also a shading language specified by ARB). "ARB low-level assembly language" is redundant; "ARB shader language" is not consistent with the article shading language; "ARB low-level shading language" is longer and not as consistent with the current use in Wikipedia articles where the language is often referred to as "ARB assembly". --Martin Kraus (talk) 10:21, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

message: Hi Wikipedians!
I am a new editor to Wikipedia and this will be my first ever edit, so feel free to leave as much constructive criticism as you'd like. Bowlus is my hometown and although it's really small, I still think its Wikipedia page could benefit from extra information regarding recreation in the town like other towns and cities in Minnesota (like Brooklyn Park, MN) beyond basic history and demographic information.
Bowlus is known for its annual "Bowlus Fun Day," mostly known as Bowlus Days to the locals. https://cityofbowlus.com/LocalAttractions/BowlusFunDays It is held the first Sunday in July and has been an annual event for over 30 years. The event is sponsored by the local fire department and serves as a fundraiser for new equipment. https://www.hometownsource.com/morrison_county_record/news/local/after-25-years-bowlus-fun-day-continues-to-delight-people-of-all-ages/article_e0c0cab7-1b3b-5b06-96b9-62c7f2ea9b55.html It may not seem very important, but the town's meager population gets about 1,000 visitors in one single day and is often regarded as the event of the year.
Below are links to other articles about Bowlus Days

Talk:Geography of Togo

message: I recently made an OMC map of Togo for the Geography of Togo article and noticed, while consulting other maps, including those already in the article, that there seems to be a disagreement over the alignment of the border between Togo and Ghana. The question is about the land inside an oxbow found at 9°38′N 0°18′E (see map).
OMC shows this as part of Togo, as do the relief map in the article and the CIA map in the main Togo article, but GoogleEarth says that it's part of Ghana, with the border cutting across the neck of that bit of territory. This is also what the satellite image shows. GoogleEarth also says that there is a village there called Butoe. Is it Ghanaian or Togolese?
Would anyone happen to know whether this represents an ongoing territorial dispute between Togo and Ghana, or perhaps a recent border change agreement? Or is it simply a mistake made by a mapmaker somewhere? I would appreciate any light that anyone could shed on this question, as I would like to adjust the OMC map accordingly. Also, if one of those political situations that I mentioned actually is the case, I think the Togo and Ghana articles should mention it.

replies: text: A very late answer, but for the record: According to the Anglo-French demarcation of October 21, 1929 (International Boundary Study, No. 126 – September 6, 1972) the togolese border follows the river Oti from Pillar 122 to Pillar 127 with interuption between Pillar 123 and 126. Reviewing this on GoogleEarth (which is very inaccurate here) it appears, that at this interuption the ghanaian-togolese border follows your red line instead of the Oti river, so the old and new owner of the disputed area is...
