Talk:Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Statistical Area

message: This article deals with the statistical aspects of the U.S. Census Bureau Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Statistical Area.
It is not intended to deal with the subjective aspects of the Denver Metropolitan Area discussed in Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Area.

replies: text: I don't understand the distinction you're making.  All of the content here, except for the population table, is included in Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Area.  Is there some specific reason this should be an independent article rather than a redirect? -- Rick Block (talk) 19:16, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In addition, to make it completely unambiguously defined Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Area is explicity about the MSA.  These two articles are about the same topic.  -- Rick Block (talk) 14:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Area started life as Denver Metropolitan Area.  It was moved to its current name and is now explicitly about the MSA precisely because the term "Denver Metropolitan Area" is informal, which makes it hard to be encyclopedic.  Keeping it explicitly about the MSA resolves any number of issues (what is the scope of the article?  how do you define the population? etc. etc.).  DrCOG is an organization, not an area, so is a completely different topic.  IMO, having two articles about the metro area is unnecessary and confusing.  I'll solicit more input on this at talk:Denver.  -- Rick Block (talk) 19:10, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Hi

message: I've deleted all employee names from this article other than the school principal. It is unsuitable and inappropriate to be listing the names of employees in a Wikipedia article. It is much too easy for a vandal to misspell a name or otherwise make fun of or annoy someone with a list of names, especially if there is no footnote linking the names to an official school Web site where they can be confirmed. Even if such a footnote existed, only constant checking by responsible editors would fix vandalism. Without names, vandalism is less annoying, and the names don't add much to the article anyway. Plenty of other, more important and more interesting information is available. Noroton 16:59, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Camperdown, Victoria

message: On glancing at this location on a map my initial reaction was, This place is hardly south of the city at all; I'd call the direction more nearly West.  
Doing a geodesic calculation using Geoscience Australia's on-line calculator (http://www.ga.gov.au/geodesy/datums/vincenty_inverse.jsp) applied to the nominal coordinates from the respective Wikipedia articles (note that some portions of the greater Melbourne metropolitan area are hardly north of Camperdown at all) resulted in the following output:
GDA Vincenty Calculation Results (Inverse)
Location: 	POINT I         	POINT II
Name:   	Camperdown, Victoria	Melboure
Latitude:	-38 ° 14 ' 0.00000 	-37 ° 48 ' 49.00000 
Longitude:	143 ° 9 ' 0.00000 	144 ° 57 ' 47.00000 
Forward Azimuth:		74 ° 14 ' 51.97 ''
Reverse Azimuth:		253 ° 7 ' 51.20 ''
Ellipsoidal Distance:		165867.871 meters 
(Apologies to the reader for my lack of skill to keep Wikipedia from destroying the columnar structure of the preceeding block of plain text)
Having entered the coordinates backwards (Camperdown --> Melbourne) the figure we're looking for is the Reverse Azimuth, 253 degrees.  This heading falls between the traditional compass points of West (270 deg.) and West Southwest (247.5 deg.), i.e., closer to due West than to the direction stated in the article, Southwest (225 deg.).  In general parlance among people who rarely have an occasion to "box the compass" "West of WSW" probably rounds more naturally to simply "West". 
Incidentally the calculated Ellipsoidal Distance (about 166 km "as the crow flies") differs significantly from the 194 km. figure cited in the article, but since the prior author's intention may have been to state distance by road, about which I have no information, that distance will not be challenged at this time.

Talk:Vizing's conjecture

message: Mostly to Will Pittenger:
Re the wikify tag: I am familiar with <math> but it produces ugly incorrectly-sized bitmaps so I tend to avoid it where unicode suffices, as it does here. I don't see what is unwikified about the current markup, anyway. If you have some more specific complaint with the style, I think it would be more constructive for you to go ahead and edit the article for style rather than dropping templates onto it; it's not a very long article, so it shouldn't take you much effort. Without more detailed descriptions of what you find non-stylish, I can't read your mind and make the article more like what you want. —David Eppstein 06:22, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You probably know more about the math part than I do, but there are options besides the bitmaps.   I see MathML, two HTML choices, and TeX.  My main concern had to do with that it did not look like a Wikipedia article.  You put 90% of the article into the introduction. -Will Pittenger 07:09, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think the mathml version knows about \square. It's a very short article, which is why I felt uncomfortable separating too much of the content off into subsections, but I made a new examples section and moved one of the paragraphs there. Hope that suffices. —David Eppstein 07:37, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Perhaps Wikipedia:Guide to layout#Lead section will help. -Will Pittenger 09:11, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

text: I was thinking of the number of publications available on the subject, as well as its prominent mention in books such as Imrich and Klavzar's, as the justification for notability. I suppose that could be stated explicitly in the intro, but I haven't seen many other math articles that do that. —David Eppstein 21:13, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Greco guitars

message: As a guitar fanatic, I do not enjoy removing all the lists from this article. Simply, Wikipedia is not a fan site, and is not a place to collect mere data, especially data that is only of interest to hardcore fans or collectors. That sort of data belongs in fan-discussion sites and blogs.
What Wikipedia should be is prose passages that describe the company, its history, the key product series, and the "most significant" products (as so labeled by some credible outside source, which is clearly cited in the article). Lists of "notables" (users, public appearances, use in recordings) must have originated with (again) some credible outside source; often, lists provided by manufacturers are not kept current (for instance, a promotional deal fell through three years ago but the company feels justified in keeping the star's name on their endorsement list).
I hope that someone will collect the data I removed, place it where it's appropriate and appreciated, and provide an External Link in this article.Weeb Dingle (talk) 16:03, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Chess master

message: There is a distinction between 'title' and 'rating class'. When a player passes USCF 2200, he is sent a certificate saying he has earned the TITLE of 'National Master'. He has done this by entering the CLASS of 'master' under the USCF rating system, much the same was as a FIDE Master has earned his title be remaining about the rating of 2300 FIDE for 20 games. Even if the FM's rating goes below 2300, his TITLE remains. Same with the USCF NM. The sources I cited show a document released by the USCF using the TITLE of 'National Master' in the exact same sentence and context as FIDE Master, thus demonstrating that the USCF views it as a 'title'. The second source is a discussion of the USCF rating CLASSES. CaptainChrisD (talk) 16:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

message: I just wanted to qualify what you have said in your article to be true. I was a DJ in San Francisco and San Jose from 1977-1999. My claim to fame was honing my craft and working at the famous Studio West from 1980-1984. It was there that I worked with and became friends with legendary Cameron Paul. He did do some edits for Disconet before starting his own service Mixx-It. I also contributed to two of the spin off labels, Country Kicks and Rock N Beat. If you ever get to hear our edit of Queen's "Another One Bites The Dust" it was inspired by the 3 turntable magic of Bob Miro.
Sadly, most remix services come and go because of legal issues. Many labels saw the benefit in having a service do the work for them and not have to re-release songs just for the DJs. However, when certain artists were remixed, the cease and desist letters arrived registered mail. Let's just say that once you did an edit of Madonna, Michael or Prince you had better make it a good one. If you tried to do a second one, you were consulting your attorney to keep you out of jail. 67.125.136.140 (talk) 16:59, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
