Category talk:Medicinal herbs and fungi

message: The sentence 
:This category is for medicinal and psychoactive herbs and fungi.
is confusing.  What does it mean?
: This category is for herbs and fungi which are both medicinal and psychoactive
or
: This category is for medicinal herbs and fungi, as well as for psychoactive herbs and fungi
?
In any case, obvioulsy a herb or fungus which has no medical value does not belong to a category called "Medicinal herbs and fungi", be it psychoactive or not.  And a herb or fungus which has medical value belongs to a category "Medicinal herbs and fungi", even if it is not psychoactive.  So the "psychoactive" part of the definition should be removed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Urod (talk • contribs) .
:many psychoactives are medicinal and have been used for healing puposes for thousands of years as well as in psychiatry and psychology for the last 50 years.  please stop changing all of this stuff until we talk about it.  being bold is great and all, but we have had many discussion on all of this in the past, and it would be much more helpful if you could discuss these changes before making them, particularly as there is obvious disagreement with many of the changes you are making.  All of these categories exist in the way they do for a reason, and for reasons that have been worked out in previous discussions.  --heah 17:48, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This cat was created, btw, to facilitate a category of plants etc. used by humans for medicine, for psychoactive purposes, etc.  how about this as a subcat of :category:Medicinal and psychoactive herbs and fungi?  medicinals will then be a subcat of that, as will psychoactives; each will have its own cat under the umbrella.  that probably makes the most sense to do.  I don't think you really understand the way the categorization sysytem here at wikipedia works . . .   --heah 17:54, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

message: There's an interesting discussion over on Talk:Matokie Slaughter, where Matokie Slaughter's grandson has shown up to note that the identification of the real Matokie Slaughter as an early freight train graffiti artist are in error. Apparently, all freight train graffiti credited as "Matokie Slaughter" is Kilgallen's work. Kilgallen also seems to have embellished quite a bit in her telling of Slaughter's biography.

Talk:Independent suspension

message: This part of the intro is badly worded, contradictory and misleading: "It is common for the left and right sides of the suspension to be connected with anti-roll bars or other such mechanisms." = correct but extremely poorly worded (such mechanisms, it is common). "The anti-roll bar ties the left and right suspension spring rates together but does not tie their motion together." = blatantly wrong and misleading. And it also contradicts itself; affects spring rates but not motion??! 
Anti-sway bars do not affect the main suspension springs directly at all; they provide their own (usually torsion-bar) spring that is independent of main shock absorbers. They actually apply an limited upwards force to the inside turning wheel, and a limited downward force on the outside wheel. Where the limit of the force is based on the spring constant of the torsion bar.
The intro should really say "Independently sprung suspensions increase the risk of vehicle roll when in sharp turns as the wheel on the inside of the steering curve will compress its spring, and the outside wheel will extend; forcing the vehicle to roll[diagram][REFERENCE]. To counter rolling, anti-sway bars [LINK TO ANTI-SWAY BARS ARTICLE] are incorporated into independently sprung suspensions. Anti-sway bars apply a downward force on the wheel on the outside of the steering curve and a restorative upward force on the inside wheel; [anti-sway formula] [REFERENCE]."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.100.250.224 (talk) 15:30, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

:There is usually not enough information for seperate pages for each sub-species, however you are always welcome to try.

Talk:Phase contrast microscope

message: I think the two articles should be merged.--Kramer 23:52, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  merger with "phase contrast microscopy" 

message: If you've already got a microscope that can do Köhler illumination, "all" you'll need to do is to introduce a mask in the condensor upper focal plane and a phase-shift ring into the back objective focal plane. From a handiwork point of view, the mask should certainly be do-able, as it's "just" a piece of thin metal with a ring-shaped hole cut into it, and then you mount the thing at the right position in the microscope. The phase-shift ring however might be more difficult: you'll need to find a glass plate which has *very* parallel surfaces (ie no thickness differences bigger than 0.00001 mm), and then somehow put a ring-shaped layer of stuff on that's approx. 0.001 mm thick (depending on what stuff you choose). Might be worth while looking for a "quater phase plate" on ebay for that...). In short, what I'd try: 
*See if you can find a microscope with köhler illumination. If you can't, I suggest you build some type of telescope instead.
*See if you can find a quater phase plate that you can somehow build into your objective.
*If both the above are true, read up on how a phase contrast microscope works.
*Find out where your various focal planes are.
*You'll then need to tailor your mask to the size of the quater-phase ring you found.
*Start pimping your microscope:-)
*When applying points 1through6: Have fun!
Hope this helps. Cheers Michael zh 13:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Full list

message: I draw attention to the fact that I have previously edited this page under the name User:Xaghko, an account which I keep for my use on public computers.
Given that many of these islands are not universally accepted as Argentine, what do people think of splitting the list into three:
*Islands administered by Argentina whose sovereignty is not in question
*Islands administered by the another country whose sovereignty is disputed between the United Kingdom and Argentina (that'll mostly be the Falklands and SGSSI]]).
*Islands falling under the Antarctic Treaty
I should say, have my doubts of the NPOV-ness of including this list on Wikipedia at all, given the controversy behind the claims to a fairly large proportion of these islands.  There are WP:UE issues, most notably in the Falklands and with the fact that isla is not an English word. Pfainuk talk 12:32, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a  parameter to , which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.
No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to , and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.
However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass  a new  parameter.
