Talk:CKMP-FM

message: Whoever listed this station as a 'Rhythmic contemporary' format, needs to look up the definition of Rhythmic contemporary.
CFUL's playlist still consists a hefty blend of rock music (although it's no longer its primary focus)along with the pop, hip-hop and dance. The station switched formats in an attempt to go head to head with CIBK (Vibe 98.5) as CIBK is Calgary's most listened to FM station and is number 2 in the Calgary radio market after CHQR (AM 770), while Fuel FM ranked last, tied with CKMX. This is according to the latest BBM numbers.

Talk:J. F. A. McManus

message: I have a question about quotation marks and quoting a written source.  My confusion lies between a convention I was taught, and the fact that the written source does not follow that convention.  The question is: should one add quotation marks to make the writing clearer?  Or should one leave the quoted text exactly as it was printed, even though it could be misperceived?  Any useful comments are welcome.
Here are the details:
This text is from the United States Congressional Record, 1999 June 22, when a Mrs. Jones of Ohio spoke before the House concerning Dr. Middleton H. Lambright; I have pasted it here from an online version of the Record:
He believed in taking chances and seeking new opportunities. In 1971, he was offered and accepted a position as Dean and Associate Professor of Surgery in the College of Medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina. He was quoted as saying: My father would have been extremely pleased to know that his son had been invited to join the staff and faculty of an institution he could not have hoped to enter in any capacity. He was speaking to the racial segregation in the State of South Carolina.
After reading this text a couple of times in the article, I realized that Dr. Lambright's words end with the word "capacity."  I added single-quote marks to the text to more clearly distinguish his words from Mrs. Jones' words.  In the article, that paragraph now appears this way:
He believed in taking chances and seeking new opportunities. In 1971, he was offered and accepted a position as Dean and Associate Professor of Surgery in the College of Medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina. He was quoted as saying: ‘My father would have been extremely pleased to know that his son had been invited to join the staff and faculty of an institution he could not have hoped to enter in any capacity.’ He was speaking to the racial segregation in the State of South Carolina.
So now I am asking, is this the correct thing to have done?

Talk:Birmingham ElectroAcoustic Sound Theatre

message: Thanks for all your input to the article, Sustaltikos - especially the paper references, which it would have taken me ages to track down. I'm glad to hear that Mckaysalisbury is now happy that it is notable. I've made a few changes today which I think improve it further.
Q1. I note that you've used the acronym BEAST in two senses, both as the hardware (speakers and diffusion desk) and as the team of people who run it. I had always thought of it purely as a "sound theatre", i.e. a place in which sound is performed. To allay any confusion over this, would it be correct to use "BEAST" for the team and "The BEAST" for the hardware?
Q2. I wonder if an article on "Sound diffusion" would be useful? I'm aware that this article necessarily uses it in the lead para, but there's no explanation of what it actually means. Smalljim 14:33, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Otto Natzler

message: The statement, in the section on Later Life:
 
"Nevertheless, Otto refused to glaze the last set of pots that she had thrown, until Reynolds finally convinced him near the end of his life" is not correct.
 
Gertrud died in the Spring of 1971.  In his own work in 1973, Otto Natzler wrote:
 
"A fairly large number of pots thrown by Gertrude remained unfinished at the time of her death.  Many of these had not even been bisque-fired. Though the firing and glazing has always been my contribution to our work, I found myself uable to attend to these until many months after.  We had shared the same workshop since our earliest collaboration in Vienna in the mid-1930s.  The thought of working in the deserted place where everything reminded me of this shared activity was unbearable.  For weeks I hardly entered the workshop.  When I finally did go back in the fall of 1971, I started working on mobiles, something I had done on and off for the past twenty years.  Not until late summer 1972 did I start ot handle Gertrud's work again."
 
When this was written, Otto stated that the glazing of Gertrud's work would be a continuing process which would be completed within a year or two.
  
Otto died in 2007, long after all that work was completed.

Talk:Accumulator (computing)

message: This is bad, really bad.
First of all this article suggests an accumulator processors has one accumulator (which 6502 did). However numerous examples are contrary to this such as
* 6809 has accumulators A and B that could be concatenated to D, 6308 had even more
* 56300 has again 2 large accumulators of extended width
* 96000 also has 2 accumulators that are even wider
With 2 accumulators you need only a single bit in the instruction to indicate what accumulator is to be used. 68000 has a lot of data registers, and those are not called accumulators, so the article should state clearly where the limit is. Seems the limit is around 4 (ARM Piccolo)
SWEET16 has one accumulator and 15 other registers, a wealth closer to 68000.
Next is the link to accumulator-based architecture which goes to PDP-8, specifically the section Legacy_of_accumulator-based_architectures which no longer exists. Is there any reason why this has to be split up?
Also it seems a bit lacking that the multiply-and-accumulate is not mentioned.
All in all an article in need of an overhaul. --22:47, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Arica School

message: I have a number of problems with this article.  
Much of it was originally written in a manner that displays a distinctly biased Point Of View (POV) in favour of Ichazo and the Arica School and against those who have used Ichazo's ideas in ways that he didn't intend.
It would seem that the original article was written by a member of the Arica School.  There's nothing wrong with this, in principle, but the lack of neutrality is quite glaring at times.
I have attempted to rewrite some of the article to retain the original claims and assertions but also make the criticisms of others more appropriate for an encyclopedia article.
The article needs considerable more development to be an adequate  presentation of Ichazo's teachings.  Ichazo's theories deserve a proper treatment without rehashing all the conflicts with the Fourth Way tradition, Claudio Naranjo, Helen Palmer et al. 
So I would ask that all further edits strive to follow the policies and guidelines on neutrality and POV etc. Ontologicos 09:52, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Are these comments by "Patrickwooldridge" some sort of joke?! It should be obvious to any intelligent person that he has been intentionally editing the Arica aricle to promote an Arican "spin" on things! As he is not dealing objectively with established "facts", but seems to be just slavishly following the usual Arica stance on these matters, it may be reasonably to assume that he is also somehow associated with Arica. I cannot think of any other possible reason for the kinds of edits he is making.  If he doesn't want his biased comments to be challanged or changed then he should leave the article to people who can contribute to it in an objective way. And I will ensure that the article doesn't just become another Arican diatribe. This is meant to be an encyclopedia article, NOT an article espousing Oscar Ichazo and criticizing (no matter how subtle) others with whom he has been in conflict!  Yahboo 11:01, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Barrel shifter

message: Where does the word "barrel" come from in the name or what does it mean?
As in the barrel of a gun. When it rotates, it takes all of the bits a particular distance at once.
This is in contrast to earlier register-based single shifting mechanisms based on chains of flip flops.

thread_title:  Why "barrel" 

message: The calculation is incorrect: It should be simply log2 n. This assumes (for simplicity) that each of the multiplexers are n bits wide. The first stage shift's across 1 bit line, the next 2 lines, 4, 8, and so on. An interesting side-effect of this arrangement is that the shift number is specified directly in binary notation, without the need for a decoder of any sort.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by REH2 (talk • contribs) 14:52, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

There is already some support for this proposal. Please add comments at Talk: MVS. Philcha 23:56, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Restructure of articles about IBM mainframe operating systems

message: As part of the proposed restructure of articles on IBM mainframe operating systems (above), I've rewritten Job Control Language to: cover IBM's DOS/360 and its descendants as well as OS/360 and its descendants; focus more on the facilities and flavour of the 2 JCLs rather than on details of  some statement types and some of their options. Please comment in Talk: Job Control Language. I'd be particulary grateful for more info on DOS/360 and its descendants, especially after 1980 - I only used DOS JCL a handful of times, and only in the late 1970s. Anything about the pre-DOS System/360 operating systems would also be appreciated. 
The rewrite does not currently take account of Truthanado's point in Talk: Job Control Language about use of "JCL" by computer suppliers other than IBM, which may entail further restructuring of articles about JCLs. Philcha 00:44, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Is it true that most BOS users upgraded to DOS?  I'm trying to make sense of the chronology, but it appears BOS was the only OS available for System/360 for the better part of a year.  Did early adapters run BOS until either OS or DOS were available?
