Talk:HP-20S

message: Is it correct tht the HP-20S and 21S are the only HP scientific calculators to use infix rather than RPN?  As far as I know, it is true, but I don't want to state that in the article w/o confirmation.  Bubba73 (talk), 22:44, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the HP-38S also uses infix notation. It's one of their latest offerings. Sadly, it seems that RPN is being phased out. :( Itub 21:19, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've had a 20S since junior high (though I later got a 48G).  It supports both infix and RPN.  IIRC, RPN was the default.  I found it very useful, since none of my classmates (or at least, none of those who habitually forgot their own calculators) could figure it out, so they soon stopped asking to borrow it. That was a mixed blessing, though; I didn't mind when girls asked to borrow my calculator.  DES (talk) 08:21, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Talk:TheyWorkForYou

message: Barring the addtion of vast amounts of other information on the history and management of this site, I feel it would be more appropriate to add this one-sentence fact to the Hansard article. The site, as the article suggests, seems to be nothing more than a searchable, online version of the Hansard transcripts. A paragraph or so about the site, when it came online, and its usage would fit well within the Hansard article, and we can always break it into a seperate article should a large amount of prose about its history start cropping up. 
A redirect seems inappropriate, although I'm not familiar enough with the topic to have any degree of authority on that matter. If this fails to generate much discussion, I'll recommend this site for deletion and add the relevant information to the Hansard article. Consequentially 22:56, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Edward Wheler Bird

message: PROD concern stated as "Very short article, notability queried a week ago and no reply." I note that the subject's name was actually spelled Edward Wheler Bird (though it often appears as Wheeler), and under the correct spelling I find more biographical information in The Jews and the Expansion of Europe to the West, 1450-1800 . An entry in the Dictionary of Canadian Biography, Volume 13 for someone else gives his pseudonym (Philo-Israel) and the name of the weekly magazine, Banner of Israel, which he founded in 1877 . Other books with a small amount of info are The Forging of Races: Race and Scripture in the Protestant Atlantic World, 1600–2000 , Religion and the Racist Right: The Origins of the Christian Identity Movement (also names the magazine)  and Britain's Maritime Empire: Southern Africa, the South Atlantic and the Indian Ocean, 1763–1820 (also names his pseudonym) . There is probably more in academic journals, and there are certainly contemporary newspaper reports about the organisation. It would be possible to write a short article, if he is considered notable.

thread_title:  PROD removal 

message: Previously, the only two listed sources were Carew's Tara and the Ark of the Covenant and a book review of that book in the Irish Times.  I removed the book review because based on other reliable sources, it's not terribly accurate. I would also question the accuracy of Carew's book in general as a reliable source.  Bird was not an "Anglo-Indian" - he was British (Anglo), born in India, which was at the time part of the Empire. He was not a judge - his father was.  Bird himself worked in the Madras Civil Service.  Lastly, it suggests that he "founded" the "British Israel movement," which is also erroneous.  He was involved in promoting it - and good at it - but he did not "found" the movement.  I suspect that came from a misreading of some sources that indicate he founded the Anglo-Israel Association.  He certainly was an officer of that group, and may possibly have been involved in founding it - but that's a far cry from founding an entire movement.  I left the listing of Carew, but I would suggest removing it as unreliable.  RebeccaGreen has indicated some more reliable sources above, one of which I cited in a recent set of edits.

Talk:Shah Cheragh

message: While crossing the Pamira, Ney Elias encountered Lake Rang-Kul. About a hundred feet back from its shore rose a sheer cliff wall. Locals pointed out to him a cave some hundred feet up in which was a mysterious, steadily-burning white flame. The Kirghiz and Shignis called it "Lamp Rock" which Elias interpreted as the meaning of Cheragh Tesh. He trained his goggles on it, noting that he indeed saw the light. He suggested to his hosts that a phosphorescent material must be emitting it from further back in the cave. "...[T]his, I was assured, was quite an erroneous view, the real fact being that vast treasures are stored in it, which are guarded by a dragon with a large diamond set in his forehead, and it is this diamond that shines by day and night."

The List of Asterix films and videogames is just that: a list items on it of greater interest than a footnote have (or should have) their own article and this article serves that purpose for the live films.--Invisifan 23:05, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  NOT TRUE 

message: The Daughters of Liberty was also a more recent patriotic order, according to an article on page 6 of the 13 Oct 1909 edition of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Over a thousand members were attending the group's three-day Pennsylvania state convention at the Odd Fellow Temple in Philadelphia, the article said. The group's objectives were 1) support for public schools, 2) prayer in school, and 3) opposition to immigration. The next annual meeting was to be held in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Talk:Killing Floor (Howlin' Wolf song)

message: The writer of this article clearly only cares about blues inasmuch as it was a 'feeder' for mainstream rock music. Currently the article focuses disproportionately on the song's after-life: can we not assume that this article will be consulted by users interested in the blues as something of cultural value in and of itself, and not just as a jumping-off-point for rock groups? Suggest adding much-needed info about the song itself and its origins; e.g. 
its probable beginnings in a Skip James song (Hard Times Killin' Floor Blues);
its lyrical content: the 'killing floors' are prob. the abbatoirs of Northern US cities where many blacks moving from the South found work;
the fact that the song represents the Wolf's return to Delta-style blues (i.e. oral borrowing from another singer's work, or simply from a  common tradition), following his split with Willie Dixon, who had attempted to bring a pop songwriting sensibility to the blues and the Wolf's music in particular (i.e. by composing original material);
further to the above, and following on from the article's comment that the song is 'one of the most influential blues songs of all-time', it should be noted that the song was in fact rather anomalous - it was recorded quite late (1964) for a blues song still so deeply marked by the Delta. In that sense, it is a something of a 'last hurrah' for the old blues amidst the new 'uptown', more soul-influenced blues of Buddy Guy, Otis Rush, Magic Sam, Albert King which, along with soul and R&B would displace the older form of the blues. In other words when recorded, its lyrical style had become markedly dated and the Wolf was becoming harder to market;
the story told by Buddy Guy that he was called in to nail the guitar part as Hubert Sumlin (a highly regarded guitar player) was unable to. This might (?) have some bearing on the array of virtuoso guitar players who have had a go at the song - Clatpon, Hendrix, Page.
Most of this can be found on the liner notes to the Chess 'Best of' album.

message: the disambiguation page states that "Novelty is the quality of being new. Although it may be said to have an objective dimension (e.g. a new style of art coming into being, such as abstract art or impressionism) it essentially exists in the subjective perceptions of individuals."

Talk:Pete Beale

message: A lot of this article seems to be rehashing of episode summaries and in the end, not a lot of it seems necessary. For example, "Pete did his best to comfort her, but Kathy rejected him, and Pete then tried a hard-line approach, simply telling her to sort herself out." I have never seen an episode of this show, so maybe it was an important scene, but it doesn't seem necessary in a biography of this character. Some of it could be better written, ie. "Just when the matter seemed closed, Pat revealed that not only were Kenny and Pete possible candidates for Simon's father, but Den Watts, who Pat had also been sleeping with at the time, was also in the running. Pat later ruled him out, but then cryptically demanded that he sleep with her, or it would be spread around that he was the father!" 
There are also only four sources, none of them online. I usually like to see at least a couple online sources because they are easily verifiable. Finally, is the family section really necessary? Perhaps there could just be a link to a similar page? 
Apologies, but I'm going to fail the article for the time being. Keep working on it and it will be of GA quality soon enough. -- Scorpion 04:57, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
