message: A "boner" is a kind of kitchen knife. It's not even slang.

Talk:DVD±R

message: I added a merge comment on the basis that almost no-one would know how to enter the ± symbol for the sake of finding this article in the first place.
I have to dispute the request to merge.  Look at what links here.  This page can be accessed via redirects from DVD plus minus R and DVD plus minus RW.  Editors can also simply highlight the title, or the ± character itself to copy and use in links.    –radiojon 06:54, 2004 Nov 22 (UTC)

message: I've taken out the word "incorrectly" from the opening title, as there was no link provided to verify that saying "minus" is officially wrong. It is merely an alternative way of reading the character, so should not be considered wrong (are regional variations within the grammar of any given country's language "wrong"? I think not...). In any case, it surely makes more sense to say "minus" if you also say "plus", as it's the oposite.... Paulfp 17:31, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Dynamic dispatch

message: For an uninformed reader, the section that explains how multiple dispatch can be achieved by inspecting the type of parameter y can be mistaken for method overloading. I feel that a statement to the effect of "Unlike method overloading, the type of the object y is known at runtime" could serve to clear the water. Moreover, I'd note that, with method overloading, the method to call is decided at compile time based on the declared type of the argument, as opposed to its runtime type.

thread_title:  which version of Python does SciPy need? 

message: I would like to propose we extract the history portions of the first paragraph and create a slightly more extensive "History of SciPy" section within the article. And to then flesh out the first paragraph I would propose we speak to the two uses of the term SciPy, as the name for the entire scientific compute stack or set of packages for doing scientific computing with Python, as well as its meaning as the specific Python package of the same name. This would support the conclusion of the community discussion about the meaning of SciPy in a NUMFocus thread. http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/scipy-user/2012-October/033374.html

thread_title:  Reference fixes 

message: Current version starts the band's "albums" in 1988, even though they released their first in 1985 and second in 1987. The omission of these albums reflects a preference among fans of the group's later work who don't really care for the band's early material. This POV is reflected in MBV's album articles as well, with opening lines like, "Isn't Anything the debut full-length studio album by My Bloody Valentine." These editorial choices serve to obscure the group's earlier albums, which, though shorter in length, are still albums and should be included in this article’s discography section.

Jtagchair (talk) 02:49, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  bad link for reference [1] 

message: This is very suspicious.
Tapestry released February 10, 1971.
Certified 'Gold' June 7, 1971.
'Platinum' was only introduced in 1976, and 'Multi-Platinum' later. Thus, certifications could only come later.
But, on March 1, 1993, Tapestry was certified both 'Platinum' and 'Double Platinum'. ie. As of March 1, 1993, Tapestry had sold over TWO million copies in the USA. And, as it was released February 10, 1971, it had thus sold two million copies in 22 years.
However, we are THEN told, that on July 17, 1995, Tapestry was certified TEN times Platinum! Or, in other words, Tapestry sold two million copies in its first 22 years..
...and then sold EIGHT million copies in the period March 1993 - July 1995!
That is highly improbable, and actually, impossible.
The only reason for this sudden "ten million" 'certification' is because stories had been rolling around since the 70's that Tapestry was 'the biggest selling album of all time' based on...well nothing really.
The TWO million certification in 1993 was reality.
The sudden bump up to TEN million two years later was to try and maintain the myth.
Thus, RIAA is NOT a Reliable Indicator of ACTUAL record sales.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.86.143.140 (talk) 13:50, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
