Talk:Antarctic oscillation

message: I propose changing the name of this article to Southern Annual Mode (SAM). Although both SAM and AAO are valid terms, SAM is more commonly used amongst current researchers in the weather/climate community. SAM is also used by the Bureau of Meteorology, who discuss the phenomenon publicly as a driver of weather in Australia, therefore I think the term might be coming more common amongst the general public too (at least, some of the general pubic who are likely to be affected by the SAM!). This is an example of current research in a high profile journal https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/ref/10.1175/JCLI-D-19-0224.1 looking at the references there are 2 that use AAO and 8 that use SAM. I realise this isn't definitive "evidence" for the use of SAM, but I think it's a good example.
There are valid arguments against a change, i.e. 'AAO' is used by NOAA https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/daily_ao_index/aao/aao.shtml , also there's a nice symmetry with the Arctic Oscillation wiki page. 
I'm interested to hear what other people think before making any changes.

Talk:Arctic oscillation

message: The current article text contains the quote:
"The harsh winter weather was attributed to a negative Arctic Oscillation, which is a climate pattern that influences weather in the Northern Hemisphere."
While I am not at all saying that a quote should be altered, I think this quote warrants a comment to the effect of:
"A negative Arctic Oscillation is not a climate pattern (and does not even seem to be much of an oscillation, seeing that it is called negative) but a weather pattern, since it is a transient weather pattern, i.e. one that does not occur (consistently) on climatological time scales."
I lack enough specialist knowledge in the field to object to the "Arctic Oscillation" (without the adjective "negative") being called a climate pattern. The oscillation itself might well be a climate pattern, particularly if it can be ascribed to or even is a direct physical phenomenon rather than a by-product of several separate physical phenomena.Redav (talk) 13:39, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Thomas Livingston

message: This is a few centuries later than what I know about, but my sense was that defect of birth refered to illegitamacy.  In the Church, bastards had to get dispensations or be legitimized in order to hold Holy Orders (i.e., be Ordained).  And, what do you know, this guy is a bastard.  Does anyone have any specific knowledge that defect of birth actually came to mean a birth defect?
------------
This is true. Illegitimacy was considered an "irregularity" and was thus a canonical impediment to Ordination.  There is a good article in the Catholic Encyclopedia (Vol. VIII, 1910) on "Irregularity" which speaks specifically about this.  See http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08170a.htm, and then look under the heading "Defect of Birth.":
"Defect of Birth 
"In primitive times illegitimacy was no bar to ordination. In 655 the Ninth Council of Toledo decreed that illegitimate sons of clerics in major orders should be held as serfs of the Church and not be admitted to Holy orders unless first manumitted by the bishop. In the ninth and tenth centuries those born of violated virgins or of incest began to be held as irregular. Various canons were also formed concerning different details of illegitimacy, until finally a general prohibition against all spurious children being admitted to orders was enacted, on the ground that the stain of birth would be a stain on the sacred ministry. At present, therefore, all illegitimate persons are irregular unless they have been legitimated by the subsequent marriage of their parents or by profession in a religious order or by papal rescript. Foundlings of unknown parentage should receive conditional dispensation. Those also are held to be irregular who, though sprung from valid marriage, were born while their parents were bound by solemn vow or after the reception of Sacred orders."

Talk:Martín Ocelotl

message: Why Martin Ocelolt?
Although there are only a few references about this important indigenous priest, he is just one example of how indigenous trials played out during the continuous of the Spanish Inquisition. Even though some Franciscan friars were in fear of power individual like Martin Ocelotl who might use their influence to make the indigenous revert back to their old ways.  However, because of his trial and other examples of indigenous leaders in Mexico, we know that the Spanish Inquisition changed their standard of trying them. Rather than using violence towards them, many of the friars believed that the indigenous were like children and that need instruction to know the difference between right from wrong.

Talk:Absolute geometry

message: The claim that "Its theorems are therefore true in some non-Euclidean geometries, such as hyperbolic geometry, as well as in Euclidean geometry" is misleading: using "some" suggests "not all", but in fact every theorem of neutral geometry is a theorem of both hyperbolic and Euclidean geometry.  This follows immediately from the definition of these two theories: hyperbolic geometry is by definition neutral geometry plus the negation of Euclid's parallel postulate, and Euclidean geometry is by definition neutral geometry plus Euclid's parallel postulate.

Reference 5 mentions Mother's Day  ("The primary market holidays for African violets are Mother's Day, Easter and Valentine's Day.") But it is hardly a good source for saying they "have long been associated with mothers and motherhood"  or that they are  "a traditional gift to mothers in many cultures around the world".

message: I find the last paragraph--on seaworthiness--pretty odd. To my (very inexpert) knowledge, the very idea of (smaller) freak waves and white squalls etc. is that a seemingly sea-worthy boat or ship can turn out to be not at all seaworthy when simply running into conditions that are rare, but not unheard of. Although I don't like other parts of the book (particularly the section on the Pamir), Tall Ships Down argues reasonably that a ship's stability or resistence to capsizing can be clearly underestimated by the captains.
