Talk:Unification Movement International

message: It's been suggested that Unification Church and Unification movement be merged.  This makes sense to me because each article says that they are two names for the same thing.  The issue I see is that the resulting article would be a bit long since this article focuses on the history of the UC and the other on its different branches and parts.PopSci (talk) 19:49, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: If they are merged it would probably be good to trim the movement article down to a list of only the notable departments and related organizations of the UC.PopSci (talk) 15:24, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

text: "Unification Church" is by far the most common name.  BTW "church" originally meant a group of people sharing a common belief, not an organization. However if calling the merged article "Unification Movement" is the consensus I will go along with that.PopSci (talk) 15:47, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Talk:United States Marine Corps

message: There seem to be some contention   on whether or not to include "crayon eaters" in the nicknames. Anecdotally, from my own personal experience the term does seem to have a great deal of cultural significance with one Marine vet even starting a business creating edible crayons and the marine corps itself once referenced the joke in 2018. The main opposition to its inclusion that I see is that the "crayon eater" nickname is a joke and therefore fundamentally unserious, however i would contend that nicknames suck as "devil dogs" and "leathernecks" that are already included without controversy are similarly unserious. - FenrisAureus ▼ (talk) 22:23, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

message: I cannot find a mention of vampires being unable to enter a dwelling uninvited in the appropriate section in Spences An Encyclopaedia of Occultism (1960), as is linked in references, (or 1920, which isn't) in the vampire subcategory or any other. I am new to wikipedia so unsure if this is because it is in a later edition (which I looked for but couldn't find) or in one of the references listed in the vampire entry in the source. It is of course possible that I could not find it.

message: I would like to suggest an addition to the Vitamin B12 deficiency syndromes under the first table. 
In addition to megaloblastic anaemia, Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to peripheral neuropathy and subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord. Both wikipedia pages in question mention B12 deficiency as a potential cause, and in clinical practice, this is a very important side effect of B12 deficiency. I believe it is relevant even for laymen to know B12 deficiency can cause severe damage to the nervous system.

Talk:Virginia

message: User:Magnolia677, User:Nikkimaria you two reverted my edits to the agriculture section, but the summaries you gave weren't clear as to what you found problematic with them. Could either or both of you explain what exactly are the issues you have with my changes to the section? Clepushka (talk) 06:31, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Clepushka, per MOS:TENSE articles should generally be written in present tense - although this isn't done perfectly at the moment, your changes were moving in the wrong direction in that respect. I also found some of your other changes increased wordiness without improving clarity. For example, in "Virginia has the seventh-highest number of wineries in the nation, with 356 producing 1.1 million cases a year", 356 is understood as referencing the number of wineries, without adding the somewhat ambiguous "locations" (which could mean wineries but could also mean communities or regions).

thread_title:  Main Article Map: Bad Colors 

message: article reads thusly:
In cases where there are multiple positions to be filled, most commonly in cases of multi-member constituencies, plurality voting is referred to as block voting, multiple non-transferable vote or plurality-at-large. This takes two main forms: in one form voters have as many votes as there are seats and can vote for any candidate, regardless of party – this is used in eight countries. There are variations on this system such as limited voting, where voters are given fewer votes than there are seats to be filled (Gibraltar is the only territory where this system is in use) and single non-transferable vote (SNTV), in which voters can vote for only one candidate in a multi-member constituency, with the candidates receiving the most votes declared the winners; this system is used in Kuwait, the Pitcairn Islands and Vanuatu. In the other main form of block voting, also known as party block voting, voters can only vote for the multiple candidates of a single party, with the party receiving the most votes winning all contested positions. This is used in five countries as part of mixed systems.
But it is not true that
in all cases where there are multiple positions to be filled, plurality is used to fill seats, 
nor that in all cases voters may cast multiple votes.
so not all plurality voting is block voting and not all voting to fill multiple positions is block voting.
Block voting is particular form of voting in multimember district (and is same as plurality at large)
Limited Voting is also a  particular form of voting in multimember district separate from Block voting
SNTV is  also a particular form of voting in multimember district. each voter cannot cast multiple votes so is not at all a form of Block Voting.
I have tried to make changes in line with these facts but in October 2023 they were reversed without cause. 2604:3D09:887C:7B70:0:0:0:6A17 (talk) 21:26, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

A daily value of a substance is a quantity of that substance. It is not relevant what the percentage of sodium in Vegemite is. It is relevant to the total amount (mass or weight) of sodium consumed in one day from Vegemite is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:200:c082:2ea0:a9c4:a9a:2ef3:73b0 (talk • contribs)

message: The history section states that video is encoded using electromagnetic waves, with a link to electromagnetic radiation. This is not true in most cases as electromagnetic radiation is basically radio. Video transmitted by cables is encoded electronically. Video recorded on tape is encoded magnetically in magnetic particles. Early video was even recorded on film (Scophony), so the encoding had nothing to do with electromagnetism. Baird's mechanical TV system encoded the images mechanically, turning them into an electrical signal which would have then modulated a radio transmitter for transmission as electromagnetic radiation.
Video can be encoded in many ways but the one common factor is that the images are first turned into electronic signals, not electromagnetic waves (radio etc.), whether analogue or digital.
I have therefore changed the statement.
