replies: text: Rather than a redirect, I think the founder of Eddie Stobart Ltd probably deserves his own article, though it was his son Edward who expanded the company to world-wide fame.  There is a biography of Eddie Stobart (senior) called "Only the Best will do" (or something similar).

Talk:Colonial National Invitation

message: A couple of edits have attempted to change the spelling of the Colonial National Invitation to the Colonial National Invitational. I compiled some evidence to show that it was, in fact, the Invitation, and I'd like to show it here for future reference (and to those who attempt to 'fix' the spelling):
From PGATour.com:
*The idea for the Colonial National Invitation Golf Tournament was conceived in 1941 after the U.S. Open championship was held here. 1
*The birth of the Colonial event, however, was delayed five years due to World War II. In the meantime, members planned to emulate the very best, the Masters Tournament, which had begun in 1934. Colonial even adopted part of that tournament's original name, the "Invitation Tournament." 2
*1978  Colonial National Invitation. (along with many more than Mr. Trevino, 3
*Nelson didn't have much of a chance to win the Colonial National Invitation (now the Bank of America Colonial), 4
And on other sites:
*1958  	Tommy Bolt  	282  	 Colonial National Invitation Tournament  5
See: Google Hits.
Hope this helps. :) -- DakPowers (Talk) 19:20, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Secondly- the comment on JG 27's overclaiming taken from Brown's book is in my opinion simply his interpretation of the statistics, and as all fighter units can be accused of overclaiming, this pargraph could be inserted into all air fighting squadron/unit history entries in Wikipedia!

text: The charge of DELIBERATE overclaiming by some pilots of JG 27 (i.e. 4. Staffel) is discussed by Shore et al.'s A History of the Mediterranean Air War...: Volume Two - five aircraft of the Staffel were observed by Hans-Arnold Stahlschmidt, a pilot of another Staffel shooting up a stretch of desert, with the pilots (including Karl-Heinz Bendert) then returning to base and claiming 12 British fighters shot down. The matter was hushed up, and the responsible pilots leaving the unit when they could be spared from battle. Shores states that Eduard Neumann, commander of JG 27 confirmed the story and insisted that it be included in Shore's book Fighters over the Desert.Nigel Ish (talk) 20:19, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Binding (computer science)

message: "binding is the creation of a simple reference to something that is larger and more complicated and used frequently." than what ? Although I study CS I completly do not understand that article.
:Agreed. I'm also CS, though not a programmer (networking and security concentration). I was just poking around Gentoo Portage and seeing some stuff referring to Python bindings. So I google it, come to Wikipedia, and see... this article. Needs serious work - starting with what a binding actually is. The current definition listed ("is the creation of a simple reference to something that is larger and more complicated and used frequently. The simple reference can be used instead of having to repeat the larger thing") is so vague as to mean nothing. If there are multiple kinds of bindings, then perhaps a disambiguation page is in order. Under the currently standing vague definition, everything from a filesystem symlink to a script that calls another script could be counted as a "binding" - say it ain't so.HobgoblinOfLittleMinds (talk) 05:17, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
