Category talk:Award winners

message: See Wikipedia:Overcategorization#Award_Winners and talk page Archive 2 for extensive discussion of issues with award-winners. The problem with these categories is not that they are vague (they are usually quite discrete); it is that they are 
# usually not defining attributes (so not that helpful as a navigation aid from the article); 
# add to category clutter (because notable people often receive multiple awards; and adding every one to the list of categories on an article would render it unusable as a navigation aid); and 
# offer little or no navigational benefits from the category listing itself (the navigational benefits of the automatically-generated listing produced by creating a category for something are better served, in the case of award-recipients, by a manually produced list on the relevant article, which can include references, notes, sorting, etc.). 
In general most of these can and should be deleted, so long as the information they contain is migrated to a list either embedded in the award article or separate from the award article. --lquilter 16:36, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:List of ambassadors of the United Kingdom to Italy

message: A bit of digging reveals the notice of Paget's appointment in The London Gazette, 9 July 1867. In 1876 the Legation was raised to the status of an Embassy (The Times, Wednesday, Mar 22, 1876; pg. 7), and Paget was promoted from Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the King of Italy to Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the King of Italy (The London Gazette, 21 April 1876). I note that for the initial appointment he was based in Florence (the capital until 1870), but at some point in the early 1870's (possibly with the change to Embassy status) the mission officially moved to Rome.

It would be nice to have a diagram actually showing the pin positions. I am not sure what is meant by the receiving side of the jack. Must be side where the cable goes into the jack but I am not sure.

Particularly in DSL cables, but also generally, polarity is reversed on POTS / PSTN cables.

message: Patent number 3,699,498 predates the patent cited in the history section by 2 years.

message: The article says: Only RJ11 and RJ14 have full electrical compatibility because Ethernet-compatible pin-outs split the third pair of RJ25 across two separate cable pairs, rendering that pair unusable by an analog phone. At Ethernet frequencies, the signals need to be appropriately paired. At audio frequencies, for usual lengths, probably not. If two were mispaired in the same cable, there might be noticeable crosstalk.  Only one, probably not. Gah4 (talk) 06:31, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Birstall, West Yorkshire

message: Someone recently said that Birstall was not a suburb of Batley but a village.  I disagree:
1 Birstall was part of Batley Municipal Borough between 1937 and 1974
2 On the census, Birstall is listed as part of Batley 
3 On Kirklees website, Birstall is included as part of Batley 
4 The big brown "Welcome to Batley" signs can be found on the way to Birstall from Gomersal or from Morley.
::Birstall is a village by two of the three definitions shown in Wikipedia for an English Village , and by most definitions found elsewhere. Unlike other districts of Batley (say Soothill, or Staincliffe) Birstall has its own market. Also the article does mention that Birstall is a district of Batley, as well as being a village in the accepted definition of the term.
Decided to remove the  bit.  It's not clear if it's a town, village or suburb, but most people seem to call it a village.  From my history knowledge, there was once the town of "Gomersal & Birstall".  As it had a town charter, it could hold markets; these took place in Birstall.  At some point, Gomersal got sent into Spenborough, and Birstall got sent into Batley.  I don't know why this happened.  The status of both Gomersal and Birstall is a mystery, but most locals seem to see them as villages.  212.159.30.47 14:52, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Redundant to Animal testing? 

message: Animals can be tested on for a number of reasons such as testing of beauty products and determining the impact of zero gravity on health. Neither of these examples use an 'animal model'. An animal model refers to a strain of an animal that models a specific human disease. This strain may have developed naturally (e.g. by inbreeding - the non-obese diabetic NOD mouse that models diabetes) or have been designed by altering the function of a gene that in humans has been associated with a certain disease. Additionally, animal used in animal models tend to be fast-breeding organisms (e.g. mice) so that experiments can be repeated a number of times and taht data can be obtained relatively quickly. Rowan 01:32, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Rowan (above). Animal testing and animal models are very different. One is an activity, the other serves as a model to understand results from a particular experiment with a different species. --chodges 18:44, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
