Talk:Red curry

message: Hmm, I think it would be good to have a combined "Thai curry" page that covers red, green and yellow curries. (I found this page in the hope of finding a list of curry colors in order of hotness.)  I don't personally have the knowledge, however. -- metamatic 20040801T221300Z
:A Thai curry article sounds like a great idea. However, which color is hottest depends on who is making them and how they did it at the time. I've been to restaraunts where it changes every night and ones where they try to keep it the same. The bottles I buy at the store (Thai Kitchen red and green) seem to be exactly the same in mildness.

text: I agree.  I was hoping to find the difference between red, green, and yellow thai curries.  But the red and green pages describe basically the same information, not a difference in flavors.  And there doesn't appear to be a page on yellow curries.  Jeffhoy 13:05, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Ballistic wire printer

message: The description of a ballistic wire printer sounds very similar to the description of (and my experience with) what is called a dot matrix printer. The computer printer page suggests that the ballistic wire printer is a subclassification of the dot matrix printer. A link was added in/from ballistic wire printer, to dot matrix printer. Perhaps someone more knowlegable could better define the distinction between the two types. 
:You are correct and the articles have now been merged by a willing person.

Talk:Tony Orlando

message: The article currently states (in the section about Orlando's youth): His best friend was Freddie Prinze (who was of Puerto Rican and Hungarian descent). But Orlando was 10 years older than Prinze; when Orlando had his first hit single at age 17 in 1961, Prinze was only 7 years old. So I think we need some confirmation of this point. If they became best friends in later years, say in the mid-1970s when they were both successful, this sentence should be moved to a different part of the article.  Also, Freddie Prinze was not of Hungarian descent, as discussed in the article about him, so that reference should probably be removed too. --Metropolitan90 19:08, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Freddie Prinze 

message: There was an excellent episode on Tony Orlando, which would probably provide a lot of useful info, if anyone has a copy and could add notes from it. It mentioned a great deal about Freddie Prinze and their friendship (which was indeed in the '70s), as well as the reasons for his first single being released under another name, and info on an attempt at a "Cosby Show" spinoff featuring Orlando as a community-center director married to a social worker played by Ada Maris.

Talk:Political theatre

message: *Much more detail and categorization is needed. The references are somewhat haphazard at the moment.
*The article mentions political theatre as part of main processes of the Athenian city-state but leaves out discussing the political significance of state-associated theatre in later times and modern day
*The article suggest that all modern political theatre is marginalized as an "outsider" medium and a voice for "the people" and for the oppressed - this comes across as unbalanced - do only the state-oppressed make political theatre? For instance, what about state-funded political plays in Communist countries?
*There needs to be mention of the major political theatre works in since the 1990s, especially the British trend for plays based on transcripts of real world events

replies: text: The cropping removes important contextual detail which demonstrates current deployment which is of especial value given it highlights the use of directed-energy weapons in the civilian context. Wikipedia is not a user manual or catalogue. It needs to develop the subject matter in an encyclopedic manner and hence represent different aspects of the subject, such as how something is used, and when it has been used. The lives of people may also be represented in Wikipedia due to their relationship to the subject matter. This is true whatever the racial identity or ethnicity of the people represented. On Wikipedia, removing people from photos on the basis of their race, or because a perception that their race is considered in socio-political terms in regard to the subject matter, is regarded as unfair discrimination. Why should they not be represented? I suggest that a failure to do so amounts to a form of systemic bias (please see Wiki project page on it). In addition, the photo is clearly now out of focus. So while the LRAD shown may be bigger in the picture, it is far less clearly defined. But overall the biggest problem is the unfair discrimination.RickyBennison (talk) 12:11, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Cryptanalysis of the Enigma

message: Hello 
I am very surprised after reading this article about Enigma. The authors cite the article of Gaj and Orlowski and the book of W. Kozaczuk, but there in the article is not written that polish mathematicians as first people in the world broke Enigma cipher ( I haven't found such sentence). There is only described their work, however without clear ascertaintion, that they broke this cipher. Only concerning Bletchley Park, the authors write about breaking the cipher of Enigma. The reader, who is not an expert in this matter may be desoriented. 
I think it is not good. 
Observer
: Thanks for taking the time to post your observations! It's certainly true that this article needs work, and that the nature and importance of the role of the Poles needs to be much more clearly stated — I'll try and get round to it soon, if noone else works on it (this being Wikipedia, you're very welcome to edit the page yourself, of course!).
: One note, though — the Polish were the first to break Enigma in the sense that they were the first to read live encrypted German military Enigma traffic, which they did after 1932. However, other codebreakers had "broken" some versions of Enigma earlier, in the sense of finding cryptanalytic weaknesses — GC&CS's Hugh Foss had found weaknesses in the commerical Enigma C as early as 1927 (and I suspect he wouldn't have been the only one). The Polish work was orders of magnitude more significant, but we just have to be careful and precise in how we phrase it. — Matt 06:55, 23 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Motor Trend

message: I don't agree with the thinning of the links section.  Many external links on Wikipedia point to commerical sites, and product placement is after all in the eye of the beholder.  If one is interested in researching Motor Trend, access to its history volume and a source for back issues is highly relevant.  The company's endorsement of car care products simply illustrates the somewhat absurd lengths to which its brand extension has gone, and is unlikely to deceive the reader into believing that Wikipedia is pushing fabric deodorizer.  IMHO, we should aim for every Wiki article to provide access to too much information rather than too little, and leave the user to determine how much of it he/she really needs.

Talk:Splatbook

message: Hmm.  I'd always thought the name "Splatbooks" came from the sound made when you drop one of the (thin softcover) books on the table.
.
I did a fairly serious overhaul.  I believe the definition I give is more correct: the name is derived from the similarity of titles within a given series (Clanbook: *) not for the similarity of multiple series (*book).
The earliest Usenet reference I can find is 1996/07/05.
The term was certainly not limited to online.  Somewhere during the 1990s (I'm guessing around 1996) I attended a talk by Erick Wujcik (designer of Amber Diceless Roleplaying Game) at Gen Con on game publishing.  He used the term "splatbooks".  Specifically he suggested that any new RPG should have groupings suitable for expanding in marketable splatbooks.  At the time this was not new terminology to me, but I was reading Usenet at the time and may have first seen it there.
Alan De Smet | Talk 22:47, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
The alternative derivation I've heard refers to the extremely 'hit or miss' nature of such books. More than most sourcebooks, they tend to divide the target audience into those who love the book and those who hate it. The analogy was something along the lines of tossing the books at a very small target. A few would hit, the rest would just go *splat*... Having said that, the White Wolf thing sounds much more likely.
As far as I can tell, this is a phrase definition. If anywhere this belongs on Wiktionary. JoshuaRodman (talk) 04:34, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
