Talk:Oaxaca Valley

message: I added a photo of Monte Alban that shows to a small extent its position within the valley.  There is a Japanese (with some English) Wikipedia map here.  I could, and would, rework this map if you wish.  Madman 15:36, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

I think one of those maps of Mesoamerica with a box around the location of the valley would be great as well - by the way, what program do you use to make/edit your maps?  I'm pretty good at using illustrator, but not photoshop, so dealing with rasterized maps is a bit difficult for me. Anyway, your help is much appreciated! -- Oaxaca dan 17:58, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:140 William Street, Melbourne

message: The recent additions to this article seem still to involve direct copying or unacceptably close paraphrasing of copyrighted sources, including the following:
* The Victorian Heritage Database entry "Former BHP House". Examples: Much of the "Historical Significance" subsection, along with most of the fourth paragraph of the "Construction" section.
* Goad's Melbourne Architecture, as quoted on this page (itself a copyvio), for example. Examples: Most of the first, third, and fifth paragraphs of the "Construction" section; some of the fourth paragraph as well.
I suspect that the material sourced to the magazine Architecture in Australia may also violate copyright, though I don't have access to the source to be sure. None of this material should be readded unless it can be confirmed to be expressed in a fashion that does not violate the copyright of others. Deor (talk) 16:27, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Komtar

message: We need rewriting, a reposition of the sections, and integrate the chronology (the table) into the main article. KOMTAR is itself a complex, not the skyscraper, so simply referring KOMTAR as the KOMTAR Tower for its main headline is not suitable. I'll be trying to see what could I do, possibly a rewrite in the future.
We need images for the skyscraper though, the old ones are outdated, and the current image does not put a lot of focus on the building (the fireworks acts as a distraction).

Talk:Peter Egan (columnist)

message: This article relies way too much on Egan's own columns for its contents. Egan probably meets the first criteria listed under WP:AUTHOR, "regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.", but the actual third party sources establishing that fact need to be cited here in the article. The rest of the contents rely too heavily on Egan's own columns. While there is editorial control over his columns published in motoring magazines, they're still his columns, so they're close to self-published sources. We need to see a much greater number of 3rd party sources to verify the claims here, especially the more extraordinary claims. I don't think an AfD would succeed here, but notability needs to be asserted and cited. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 05:18, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Pedersen rifle

message: I hope that the information I have added to this article may stimulate some interest on the part of those who may have additional information on such subjects as the fate of the U.S. Pedersen rifles and the numbers and dispositons of the Vickers-Pedersen rifles.
My interest in this subject goes back to about 1960, when I saw an article in (I believe) Guns Magazine about the Pedersen rifle.  The author made much of the idea that the rifle lost out to the Garand largely due to an unfortunate experience by Gen. Macarthur:  when he shot off a clip of ten rounds with a Pedersen rifle at a range one day, he discovered that his campaign hat had been ruined by the toggle mechanism battering the hat brim and was reportedly quite put out by the experience.  This story impressed me even then as "urban legend" material, but even at that young age I couldn't completely disregard it. Plus there was the whole issue of how a credible firearm like the Pedersen came out in second place.  So, I finally decided to do a little digging . . .

This description seems to be talking about uptown.
I'm not from toronto and came to this page because I met someone from north toronto and naively I thought it was the north area of toronto rather than a specific neighbourhood. This description appears to go too far south.
I am from Toronto.  This article confuses the area now perhaps known as North Toronto and the old Town of North Toronto.  See the article on "Eglinton, Ontario" which speaks of the Town of North Toronto being incorporated by amalgamating the villages of Eglinton and Davisville.  I also note that I would never consider Lawrence Park, for example, to be part of North Toronto.  I lived most of my youth in "my North Toronto" (area that was formerly that old town) and attended North Toronto C. I. but have left.  Perhaps times have changed.

Talk:Globally integrated enterprise

message: Yes, the term 'Globally Integrated Enterprise' is a neologism, but it's a term used to describe a concept for which no alternative expression has yet been proposed.  I don't think it's helpful for Wikipedia to guess at the intentions of the author of this article or the creator of the term.
Palmisano published his article in Foreign Affairs, a fairly highbrow magazine, and has presented the concept in business school lectures.  It has attracted serious discussion among business school professors, as well as serious criticism on blogs etc, one of which I have listed in the 'References' section.  
Wikipedia has a number of articles on the whole globalisation and offshoring debate, most of them written from a social, economic or consumer viewpoint.  I believe there's also a need for an article that examines the issues from the corporation's viewpoint.

Talk:Exclusive psalmody

message: Err, that's a bit of an assertion, even if it is made by somebody else in a published work, that Psalms were used exclusively by the early church in the first few centuries. Surely one of the few (if any) benefits of textual criticism is that it has been able to highlight prose/song in the epistles? 
And doesn't Paul say to sing Psalms, and "songs" and "spiritual hymns" to one-anotherhttp://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Ephesians-5-19/, making some kind of distinction.
Perhaps that opening paragraph could be revised and balanced a little better than just setting up the article to reflect a viewpoint.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.162.14.51 (talk) 14:04, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
Talk:Jeremy Foley

message: This article has been targeted for a major re-write by one or more of the editors of the University of Florida Wikipedia Project, including achieving an "encyclopedic" neutral point of view, properly sourcing all factual material to reliable and authoritative sources (either on-line news sources or hard-copy publications), and uniform style and formatting consistent with the UF Wikipedia Project, all with the goal of satisfying the Wikipedia requirements for "Feature Article" status.  Given the sensitivity of some UF-affiliated editors to changes to Gators athletics articles that they have placed on their "watch lists," your comments and input are solicited.
The ultimate goal is to eliminate any "rah-rah" tone within the article, and let the facts and statistics regarding Foley's success as the Gators athletic director speak for itself, so that the final product will reflect well on the University of Florida, as viewed by unaffiliated readers seeking information about Foley, UF, UAA, etc.

Talk:Minimal polynomial (linear algebra)

message: Could someone finish the example or give a better one? I was trying to follow, but it seems to say "here is an example which as you can see is easy". I would really appreciate a good finished example or a good link for how to solve for it.
: Agreed. Just saw this article for the first time, and the example (along with a lot of the article) should definitely be expanded. I think the "Computation" section would also benefit from descriptions of the other common methods by which minimal polynomials are computed beginning with various pieces of information ('e.g.', a description of the techniques one can use to compute the minimal polynomial of some operator given (or after determining) its characteristic polynomial, eigenvalues, etc.). If no one beats me to it, I'll start expanding this article once I have some time to kill. --mathemajor (talk) 00:11, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess I did beat you to it. I hope the text explains that it is perfectly unnecessary to know the characteristic polynomial or the eigenvalues to compute the minimal polynomial; all you need is Gaussian elimination (and the given example is so simple that I just solved the system by inspection). cases where the minimal polynomial for one vector is not already the entire minimal polynomial are rare, and if they do occur, so much the better because one gets a partial factorization of the minimal polynomial. One might pose a more philosophical question of why computing the minimal polynomial is not often used in education as the preferred method to solve concrete eigenvalue problems, rather that the characteristic polynomial: it is not in principle any harder to compute (and easier to teach as no determinants are involved), it could be of a lower degree, and its factorization gives immediate information about diagonalizability, which the characteristic polynomial does not. The argument that shows that the roots of the minimal polynomial give all eigenvalues is slightly more abstract than for the characteristic polynomial, but quite simple (and even talking about the characteristic polynomial properly requires considering determinants of matrices with entries in a polynomial ring, which is not without abstraction either). Maybe the coefficients in the computation of the minimal polynomial get nasty somewhat more easily than for the characteristic polynomial, but determining the characteristic polynomial for a 4×4 matrix without zeros in not a piece of cake either.
