Talk:Supernatural

message: This article could benefit from an outline of how the word "supernatural" differs from "paranormal". It could also point out that when psychologists come across unexplained phenomena, they call it "paranormal", when theologians come across unexplained phenomena, they call it supernatural. Vorbee (talk) 22:30, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I was just going to say this myself.  The articles on both Supernatural and Paranormal make similar points and use similar definitions, notably that events and phenomena so described are not susceptible to explanation in the light of current scientific knowledge.  The Supernatural article even uses the word 'paranormal', without hyperlinking it incidentally.  Unless someone can make a clear distinction between the two, it might be better to merge them, since if an intelligent, educated person can't give a pair of distinct and comprehensible definitions, they're effectively the same.  I don't accept the contention earlier in this thread that 'supernatural' has any specific reference to Biblical or other events within the purview of Christianity.  I'd never heard that claim before, in fact. I don't have the background to draw up definitions, because to me they're the same, but over to someone more expert. Chrismorey (talk) 17:25, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The main difference is that supernatural usually entails religious or divine significance. Whereas paranormal does not. Aliens, ghosts, abductions, orbs, monsters, magic, and mainly all science fiction are all non-religious things in general and these are paranormal. Think Ghostbusters and Tales of the Crypt or Twilight Zone. The moment you talk about miracles or mythology they are get into the spiritual and religious. Supernatural emerged from theology in the medieval period but it has since been narrowed to divine matters.Ramos1990 (talk) 20:07, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Kitniyot

message: The article currently states that it means 'legumes', which as far as I can tell is correct.  I have removed the word 'literally', as I don't know exactly how the meaning is derived (e.g. it may not be literal when you consider the root).  I also added a dictionary source for this.
Barmispain cited this article, which says "literally little things", but that is not a dictionary, and the original literal meaning may not be the current meaning.  So I'd prefer to use 'legumes' (as now cited) at least until we can find a contrary dictionary source. Superm401 - Talk 18:15, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Triage

message: Someone requested a rewriting of the intro chapter. So I did. Maybe even added a web link, but at the same time, I'm poor with real references, and opinionated in a way. Not quite in the POV-way, I think, but I *do* have a viewpoint on everything.
I'd hope someone else would check out my work on the intro. Because it really is a total rework.
Please don't revert it even if its subpar. Develop the ideas further. Because it's a total drag to have your work drown into the bin, after hours and hours of editing. Over and over again. :/ Decoy (talk) 17:07, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

message: UK section needs a re-write and is quite out of date with the quoted system being replaced twice since the date of the references used - National Ambulance Service Medical Directors (NASMeD) Sieve was established nationwide in 2013 and now the NHS Major Incident Triage Tool is to replace that in 2023 (see Vassallo et al, 2022 and the Manchester Arena Inquiry Volume 2) . 
I also have question the need for the comment "In the UK and Europe, the triage process used is sometimes similar to that of the United States (see below)". A lot of systems globally, not just Europe/US are similar due to improved global cooperation on disaster management/disaster medicine - however, each system often has mechanical/technical differences in them that distinguish them. Might be a good idea to change the wording of them or just remove the comment altogether?
I'll attempt a rewrite at some point in the near future but feel free to re-write if you have the time. CubeOfLettuce (talk) 00:47, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

Infrastructural capital is not a well-defined term. It could even be considered a neologism. The usual term for what the article describes is physical capital, which does not include natural capital. see eg 
"Infrastructural capital which is a broad category of assets that contribute to how an
organisation conducts business; such as processes, financial relationships,
communication systems, information systems, philosophies, and financial structures
(Brooking 1999)."
