Talk:James Traub

message: Since I imagine that "Foreign Policy" magazine will correct the erroneous quote, and someone may revert my edit, here is the sentence Mr. Traub wrote, as retrieved on 29 Aug 2010 from http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2010/08/27/mixed_irish_blessing?print=yes&hidecomments=yes&page=full 
'By the time then-President Bill Clinton appointed [Mitchell] as an envoy [to Northern Ireland] in 1994, the Catholic "loyalists" and Protestant "unionists" had spent decades killing and maiming each other, as well as innocent civilians on both sides.'
Before trusting Mr. Traub's published work as an information source, remember that he made this incredibly basic error.  Rinne na dTrosc (talk) 15:13, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

message: I've rearranged the information about books that discuss the Retablo, to bring them all together in one paragraph.

Talk:Atomic Energy Act of 1954

message: The article currently states that this Act "reversed certain provisions in the 1946 law which had made it impossible to patent processes for generating nuclear energy or fissile materials." 
Yet the linked 1954 law states in Section 11: "No patent shall hereafter be granted for any invention or discovery which is useful solely in the utilization of special nuclear material or atomic energy in an atomic weapon" and "No patent hereafter granted shall confer any rights with respect to any invention or discovery to the extent that such invention or discovery is used in the utilization of special nuclear material or atomic energy in atomic weapons." The same language appears in the current law. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/42/2181
So I do not see what was "reversed." The patentability bar appears to have survived. Tisiwoota (talk) 04:54, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Highland Creek (Toronto)

message: Highland Creek (Lake Ontario) was recently created. It is a duplicate of this page with some additions. There is no need for two articles. Furthermore there is no need to move it to a sub-designation because there is no other Highland Creek article. EncyclopediaUpdaticus (talk) 11:41, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The pre-existing Highland Creek article treats a river and a place, which should be properly treated in two separate articles. In addition, when researching the river on the Atlas of Canada, I discovered several Highland Creeks just in the province of Ontario alone. Thus, I created the new article with the sub-designation "Lake Ontario", porting old information from "Highland Creek" and adding in the results of new research. It is my intention to create a new article about the place, perhaps as "Highland Creek, Toronto"; and to change the pre-existing article "Highland Creek" into a disambiguation page, in which one would reference the new articles, including the place, and the other Highland Creeks discovered in Ontario. All this would obviously mean not merging this new article back in. I just haven't gotten around to the additional changes yet. My fault as it has clearly caused some confusion. Any other comments or suggestions welcomed. papageno (talk) 06:49, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pyrantel pamoate

message: Under "toxicity" it talks about "Class C" and "Class A".  What is this classification scheme?  Can't find any information on this in wikipedia under "toxicity" nor anywhere else.  In illegal drugs "Class A/B/C..." are used by the US penal code, but that's obviously something completely different.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.172.75.1 (talk) 22:28, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

message: In the article, it says: "Dosage is 11 mg/kg not to exceed 1 g as a single dose."
Does this mean 11mg of pyrantel embonate or 11mg of pure pyrantel? In the package insert of a German pyrantel drug ("Helmex"), it says dosage is 10mg/kg, with one tablet containing 720mg of pyrantel embonate equivalent to 250mg of pure pyrantel.

Talk:Silvio Scaglia

message: Can anyone help find a RS for Silvio Scaglia's religion. I was able to locate this on https://blurred-reality.com/silvio-scaglia-haart/ : "Religion: Born in Switzerland and moved to Italy for work, Silvio Scaglia Haart and his family follow the Christian religion." The question is important because if Silivio Scaglia is indeed still Christian (or born into a Christian family) and he has not converted to Judaism (he took on her last name "Haart" but did he or did he not also take on her religion?), then his marriage to Julia Haart is an interfaith marriage, meaning has Julia Haart married out of her religion (Judaism). Can anyone clarify the denomination of the clergy-person at their 2019 wedding? This information is important. Thank you,IZAK (talk) 01:21, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Examples 

message: I think the overall structure of the article is good, however some of the sections could do with some further explanation in my opinion. First off, the definition needs an academic source. I think the definition of Linz & Stepan (1996)-Linz, J. J., & Stepan, A. C. (1996). Toward consolidated democracies. Journal of democracy, 7(2), 14-33. could be used. They state that there is democratic consolidation when no significant political group seriously attempts to overthrow the democratic regime. In the consolidation theories section, I would add to “institutionalization” the five conditions for a consolidated democracy, also by Linz & Stepan (1996); civil society, political society, rule of law, bureaucracy, economic society. In “informal rules”, I would add a source to back up O’Donnell’s ideas on consolidation; O'Donnell (1996)-	O'Donnell, G. A. (1996). Illusions about consolidation. Journal of democracy, 7(2), 34-51. In the examples section, I would add more explanation as to why countries like UK and Netherlands are unlikely to revert to authoritarian monarchies, so can be labelled “consolidated”.

message: Hi Hux,  The creation or use of acetates is not limited to the process of mastering vinyl records.  This needs to be clear in the lead paragraph.

thread_title:  Messianic Democracy 

message: First, I'm assuming that the section containing Talmon's description of the term isn't the part that editors regard as being OR or being uncited. So, I removed the tag from the article in general, and applied it to only the part of the article related to the Iraq War. If I'm incorrect, and editors intended for the tags to be applied to both the description by Talmon and the section on the Iraq War & War on Terror, then please correct.
Second, I applied the original research, uncited, and POV tag to the section about the Iraq War and the "War on Terror". 
Now, I have to say that from my personal point of view, I might very well agree with the section about the Iraq War being the product of a messianic mindset among Mr. Bush's advisors. But my personal POV is immaterial to the matter at hand. WP is not my soapbox; neither is it anyone else's.
If we're going to give this subject an encyclopedic treatment, let's at least get some sources in here, write from neutral point of view, and remove any original research. Seymour Hersch's excellent article for the NYT from 2004 which contains a statement from a Bush adviser along the lines of "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality" might be a great place to start a serious discussion of the phenomenon.
