Wikipedia talk:Motivation Award

message: A few good names offered here (selected some from above): Barnstar of Motivation. The Inspirator's Barnstar. The Barnstar Bright. (Getting obscure.) The Raising Barnstar. The Community Barnstar. I personally think that The Raising Barnstar is really witty, but may go over some people's heads (is the expression "Barn Raising" an Americanism?). In lieu of that, I like both the original Barnstar of Motivation and The Community Barnstar. – ClockworkSoul 07:02, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: My vote is for the original name, Barnstar of Motivation.  I choose this since the Barnstar is being awarded to someone who motivates the Wikipedians to "Be Bold" in everything they say or do. Zscout370 19:19, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

text: Either Barnstar of Motivation or The Community Barnstar sound good. -- BRIAN0918  20:02, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

text: I like Barnstar of Motivation or Barnstar of Inspiration I don't like the second as much as the first because it seems more conceptual. The first one is a clear indication of why you're getting the award, and meshes nicely with the bullhorn. --Deathphoenix 21:59, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Bombay High Court

message: I have looked a number of the sources for this section and they seem to all have their roots in the allegations of the petitioners in a court proceeding unsupported by any other source.  There are a couple of online newspaper articles that seem to be pretty much quoting the same press release, likely form the petitioners as well.  The fact that no source other than those which flow from the parties making the allegations seems to me to warrant deletion of this entire section.  Even if the material did have a verifiable source, wikipedia is not the place for litigants to plead their cases, which is what seems to be going on here.  I propose the deletion of the entire section.  What are the thoughts of other editors? --KenWalker | Talk 06:56, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually I doubt there is a formal English name to this song. I adopted the title because it has seven syllables and somewhat in rhyme with the original lyric, which may prove to be useful if we are going to translate the whole lyric into English. -- G.S.K.Lee 12:31, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: G.S.K. Lee, what I intended to say is that "I Love Beijing Tian'anmen" is not grammatically-standard English...it reflects the Chinese word order, and is somewhat comprehensible but is not logical in English, because in grammatically-standard English, the specific place follows the larger place, e.g. The White House, Washington, or the Tate Gallery, London, the complete contrary of Chinese. That's not to say that non-grammatically-standard English should be forbidden, especially from song/poetry, but I think to most native English speakers, this translation would be viewed as unusual or highly unorthodox. But I understand/appreciate your intent. I don't mean to sound critical! ~ Dpr 01:54, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Maybe there was some reason for putting that in originally, but if so could someone explain that reason (and elaborate on the comment more clearly in the article, preferably)? Otherwise, shouldn't it be removed?

Talk:Nielsen ratings

message: The article seems to be missing information on the number of households (and total individuals) participating, and on the change in these number over time.  I saw an article recently about a doubling of the number of households, for example.
I'm also not seeing any info on how the (current, portable) meters work.  They pick up subsonic signals that identify the source and the content. I think it's the same mechanism by which "smart" TVs and even car stereos can tell you what's playing and what the station is.  The current devices are geared to ID at least TV shows and songs on the radio, as well as large-scale advertising campaigns, and apparently are also picking up on some Internet-only "broadcasts".  The devices don't really do much without the sound coming from an external speaker, so one can exclude content being counted by wearing headphones, or turning the sound off. They're apparently sensitive devices, and can even ID an "exposure" to a song or ad playing from a loud car stereo that passes you on the street.  The devices do not have GPS, though they know when the wearer is home versus away because at home you're within range of the base station, a custom WiFi box.  A household typically gets two of those, for complete coverage, and one wearable per household member who lives there "full time" (at least 4 days per week, I think).  There have been various privacy-conscious suspicions about the devices, but they don't track position, don't lead to any sales/trading of personally identifiable information, and do not record general audio (in at least one court case they were subpoenaed in hopes of recovering incriminating conversations, and there was nothing).  Anyway, the devices are the size of pagers, and charge via USB like a cell phone. A 4-hour charging is good for about 3 days, but they apparently advise charging it every night.
This is just details I've picked up here and there, not source research I've done, but they're points worth researching for those who want to work on this article.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  01:27, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
