Talk:O Estado de S. Paulo

message: I've changed the "neutral journalistically" to "neoliberal journalistic", as the paper has a clearly market-oriented economic coverage and usually reflects Febraban's (Federação Brasileira de Bancos - the most important association of banckers) in Brazil. It also publishes mainly the opinions of representants of that view.
O Estado de S. Paulo is no longer a conservative newspaper, the editorials are anti-Bush , pro-choice about abortion,pro-Bachelet on Chile elections. "Estadão" is a liberal newspaper nowadays.
I don't think labels like "progressive", "conservative", "liberal", etc make much sense. It is well known that political parties which like to call themselves "progressive" are strongly opposed to many changes: that's usually called "conservative"! Tsf 23:20, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Thomas Patterson Brockman

message: I read a few other biographies regarding southern plantation owners at the time (eg. Robert E. Lee).  They don't seem to emphasize the slave-owning bit.  I think it goes without saying that Thomas was a slaveowner as that was how the economy worked, et cetera.  But with such a brief biography at this point it seems negative to emphasize it in a 3 line stub.  If we had copies of some of his senate remarks, his military record et cetera then it might fit in a bit better, particularly if he supported seccession against abolitionists or something like that.
There is a lot more on the page now than when the slave-owning comment was there, and it seems like it is an interesting fact given that Brockman was a Unionist.  Would it make sense to put a reference to this back at this point?  Abulsme 06:10, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Talk:HotBot

message: Information here is a bit stale... right now they only offer searches for "Ask Jeeves" and "Google".  Looking at the wayback machine would probably give more insight into the evolution of Hotbot.

::: Robots.txt are the scourge of the internet. I should set up a crawler that ignores robots.txt files.  16:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

message: As far as I remember, throughout the 90s Hotbot for some time was the first and only search engine giving users the option to search for an exact phrase rather than just individual terms, before Yahoo, Lycos, and eventually Google adopted the feature. If that can be sourced somehow, it should go in the article. --2003:56:6D1B:C637:CDDC:5985:4AE8:58BC (talk) 22:33, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Thomas Henderson (astronomer)

message: This article states that Henderson found the distance to A Cen to be 3.25 LY, and the Wiki page for A Cen gives the actual distance as 4.37 LY.  This article then stated that the percentage error on this is 33.7%.  I confirmed by checking on the Wiki page "Approximation error" that to find the percentage error of a measurement, one divides the difference between actual and observed results by one percent of the actual measurement, not the reported one.  Doing this, I come up with a figure of only 25.6%.  The 33.7% previously given here would seem to be the result of dividing by 1% of Henderson's result; hence the change.  Same song, second verse:  Bessel's figure for the distance to 61 Cygni was mishandled in the same way; it has now been corrected.

message: In 2006 an anon. user added the middle name "James", which has since percolated into other-language Wikipedias. There was no comment to justify the addition.

I've removed both middle names, which are not backed up by his marriage or birth records.

thread_title: Valais  

message: I took out these countries from the list, because they do not have a real Germanic toponymy : there are only places-names which are in fact words already borrowed from Germanic by Latin or northern French (for instance burgus > burgo, borgo, etc.) and they never appear in typical Germanic compounds.

88.159.71.34 (talk) 18:37, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: This toponymic appellative (not a suffix) is not Germanic as you say and it existed in Old French with the same meaning trajectum > trait e.g. le Trait or maybe Carteret (Cartraio or Cartreio 1125, Chartrai 1156, Kartrait ~1210), not to be confused with trait in F and in E, from tractum. I think we can take it out, because, as far as I know, this word was not borrowed by Proto-Germanic from Latin (like mill or tile for instance).Nortmannus (talk) 19:07, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

message: The spelling of Cottam just happens to look like it bears -ham- in it, normally the plural of cottages in placenames comes out something like 'cotton'. Again, it is NOT cott+ham but an cotten/cotton/cottan/cottam plural thing going on as also seen in names like Clerkenwell and oxen.
Nevertheless, it might be worthwhile and inlightening to keep false-cognates like Cottam (it isn't the only one) listed to show how the roots of placenames can be misleading.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.65.142.56 (talk) 06:45, 19 September 2015 (UTC)

message: Someone put in that the book the film was based on, which has no entry of its own, was written by "cd".  The book was written by Brent Monahan, who also has no entry of his own.  I don't know if putting down "cd" was a joke or something, but of course "cd" links to the page for Compact Discs, and even under the disambiguation list for "cd" there is no author under there, so clearly it was "vandalism" of some sort, though I don't really understand it.  If it was a joke, I definitely don't get it.  Then again, I only first watched the film tonight, and I have never read the book or heard of the legend prior.  I corrected the error and put in the real author's name, though, after checking on Amazon.com and on the page for the legend of the Bell Witch. Fermentor (talk) 10:50, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Babel (film)

message: The plot currently comprises 1,412 words (permalink). WP:FILMPLOT suggests plot summaries for feature films be between 400 and 700 words. It also notes exceptions to this range, for films with unconventional structures, or films whose plot is too "too complicated to summarize in this range". Pulp Fiction's (which has 1,245 words) is given as an example. This film would clearly also be an exception. I trimmed the plot as best I could without removing important information; I don't believe it could be trimmed significantly (to near 700 words) without removing consequential information, so i've removed the recently-added tag.

message: "Mute" implies "unable to speak."  Not clear whether that applies to Chieko, but it should not be assumed of a deaf person without evidence.  A deaf person who is also mute is very rare.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 伟思礼 (talk • contribs) 07:38, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: "Deaf-mute" is outmoded terminology, but historically most deaf people have been "mute", i.e. unable to speak, because they couldn't learn spoken language without hearing it, so that was the origin of the term.  Given the right education, many deaf people nowadays do learn to speak as well as to read lips and sign.  Some speak quite well, and can be understood, although they generally don't sound quite like a hearing person.  Of course some speak better than others.  In the film it's clear that Chieko's ability to speak is extremely limited, and she communicates with hearing people by a combination of lip reading and writing notes.2600:6C50:800:2787:B552:265D:EEEA:5ACD (talk) 06:42, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
