* http://www.theconcertband.com/keyboard-percussion.html The major keyboard percussion instruments are the xylophone, the glockenspiel, the marimba, and the vibraphone.

Conclusion: Yes, it does seem that keyboard percussion is a common name for modern mallet percussion, and even on balance that the celesta is excluded despite it having a keyboard while keyboard percussion instruments don't. I guess it's as logical as saying that tympani aren't mallet percussion, which is also the normal usage. I have learned something! Andrewa (talk) 19:29, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Vereniging Natuurmonumenten

message: A more correct translation would be "Association for the Conservation of Natural Monuments in the Netherlands", although the concept "natural monuments" sounds rather strange in English. The association's website does not have an English version - but that may be just as well, since Dutch organisations tend to make up their own, usually incorrect English titles without bothering to have them checked by a native speaker. People then say "that's what they call themselves in English, so we have to accept it", even though English isn't their native language. If I was going to call it anything in English it would be "the Dutch Association for Nature Conservation" - no need for "Netherlands", which sounds faintly pompous in English, and "Dutch" is perfectly clear, not to say more "natural" (!). Despite what many Dutch people think, "Dutch" does not have negative connotations in English, except in a handful of now largely obsolete phrases like "Dutch courage" and "Dutch treat", nor is it ever mistaken for "German" ("Deutsch").213.127.210.95 (talk) 16:21, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

message: What does Me'am Lo'ez mean? --Error (talk) 02:50, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Meaning 

message: Most of the books on the tanakh (besides the Torah) that we find in Yakult Me'am Loez and Torah Anthology were done in the 1960s by Shmuel Yerushalmi, seemingly in Hebrew (never Ladino). So the opening that it is "a widely studied commentary on the Tanakh written in Judaeo-Spanish" doesn't seem right.  
From Encyclopedia Judaica, "Moses Magriso completed the volumes on Exodus (2 vols., Constantinople, 1733, 1746), Leviticus (1753), and Numbers (1764). Isaac Behar Argśeti wrote only a part of his commentary on Deuteronomy (1772). Both Magriso and Argśeti followed Culi so faithfully that the Me-Am Lo'ez on the [5 books of the torah] maybe considered a unified work. Using the same method, others sought to cover the rest of the Bible and complete the undertaking. Joseph di Trani of Constantinople wrote on Joshua (2 vols., 1850, 1870);"
I think that the opening should read "a widely studied commentary on the Torah written in Judaeo-Spanish" but perhaps it can be mentioned in the next lines that the work has since been continued on to the rest of the Tanakh, primarily in Hebrew. Billyball998 (talk) 18:32, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Vague? 

message: I removed the section because it is not accurate. It implies that the movie's depiction is inaccurate, and that the OCD-like symptoms do not belong in the depiction: "While it may appear that these two disorders might be related, one is a tic disorder, the other an anxiety disorder."
However, the main article on Tourette's contains many sources indicating that the two conditions appaer together very often, and may even be genetically linked.
:Some forms of OCD may be genetically linked to Tourette's.Pauls DL, Towbin KE, Leckman JF, et al. "Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome and obsessive–compulsive disorder. Evidence supporting a genetic relationship". Arch Gen Psychiatry. 1986 Dec;43(12):1180–82.   A subset of OCD is thought to be etiologically related to Tourette's and may be a different expression of the same factors that are important for the expression of tics.Miguel EC, do Rosario-Campos MC, Shavitt RG, et al.

message: Hello! After reviewing this quite thoroughly, I am going to be making a few key changes. I think some of the information you have is quite redundant, so I am going to be combining some of the information together. I am also going to restructure the article to help with flow. Much of the information already there will be kept! I'm just going to reword some things that are a bit confusing, and change some structural aspects. Also, some of the references present do not exist, so I have found similar sources to add to justify the previous information. I am also adding some recent research that I feel elevates the article and provides more specific information. Hopefully, everything will look good and my changes and additions will be of value.

thread_title:  Citations for use 

message: From the current article: The sleep dealers are called so because one can collapse if one works long enough. It has been a little while since I saw this, but I thought that the title is more a comparison of remote operation to dreaming, or maybe the dream-like separation that occurs from having so much of one's daily interaction mediated by immersive VR. Or maybe it was the way the system encouraged working long hours to pay off the implants, with nobody at the worksite able to discern that an operator is impaired through sleep deprivation. In any case, I am going to try to reword some of this - unless the meaning of the term sleep dealer is mentioned by the movie itself, it belongs in commentary rather than plot summary (and it might be that it is mentioned, I am AFM at the moment). - 2/0 (cont.) 15:38, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  The why of the title 

message: I added that opening summary to the page for Sleep Dealer, which previously had only one sentence for the opening. This is because this is an unusual movie, to the extent that the usual method of plot summary produces a confused jumble of events that misses the obvious socio-political theme and purpose, thus inadvertantly not accurately representing this movie. I have found the same problem with other plot summaries of this film. So I wanted to resolve this with a concise summary that focused on the primary theme.
I also made a few minor edits to the existing detailed plot summary, but very cautiously, because I sense that the original writer is Spanish speaking, whereas I only was able to read the subtitles.
I remain uncertain about one aspect of the plot summary, which at first strongly implied that Memo was aggressively breaking the law, by "intercepting" military communications. I changed the word "intercept" for the word "monitor," to imply that Memo was not really doing anything, other than the equivalent of listening-in to the emergency band radio as many people do.
"Soon, he can monitor military and law enforcement communications... One summer, a remote controlled military aerial vehicle almost catches him monitoring a military frequency, an act that warrants a brutal attack..."
This might still be incorrect. In my understanding, Memo was not hacking a military frequency, nor doing anything wilfully nor unwilfully to warrant reprisal. However since I do not speak Spanish, I have to assume that the above interpretation is probably more correct than mine, so I did not substantially edit it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krystof (talk • contribs) 21:32, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
