Talk:Paul Schnabel

message: Paul Schnabel is famous because he is the head of the SCP and because he has a weekly column in the newspaper NRC Handelsblad. He is not famous for his dissertation. Also I think that citing extremely selectively from his very lengthy dissertation make the article unbalanced. We can move the following excerpt to Wikiquote where it would be more suitable.

Talk:Pulcinella

message: There are several instances where it appears the page author(s) are stating opinions as opposed to facts. However, there are also many instances of the author(s) stating what appear to be factual claims that simply lack citations. This really complicates the issue.
I'm less familiar with the literary character, more familiar with the cultural aspect. Thus, in this situation I'm not comfortable deleting what appear to be opinion statements (since it's just my opinion that they seem like opinions). For now I've noted these as  "citation needed", pending clarification.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Betsy Rogers (talk • contribs) 01:43, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Opinions vs. Citations Needed? 

message: : His main characteristic, from which he acquired his name, is his extremely long nose, which resembles a beak. In Latin, this was a pullus gallinaceus, which led to the word "Pulliciniello" and "Pulcinella", related to the Italian pulcino or chick. 
My Latin dictionary says pullus means 'a young animal', not a beak.  I would change the paragraph to:
: His name, from Italian pulcino ('chick'), refers to his distinguishing feature: a long beaklike nose.
The –ella is a common diminutive suffix, not likely a contraction of gallinaceus.  The Latin phrase is unlikely to be relevant here, in my amateur judgement. —Tamfang (talk) 07:25, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  fishy chicken 

message: It feels like it should be sufficient to say something like 'In various European languages (...), the term  "Pulcinella's secret" or a "Polichinelo's secret" is used to refer to an open secret.' I'm not sure what value the additional analysis adds to this page, since it's just a generic discussion of open secrets citing an Italian philosopher. Barzamin (talk) 20:03, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Miscellanea: is it necessary to cite Mordini? 

message: Is this a real saying in English? I'm a native speaker of U.S. English and have never heard of it. A Google search only brings up websites that cut and pasted it from this Wikipedia entry.
The paragraph where the "pickin's" phrase is found appears to have originally been lifted directly from the Italian wiki page (https://it.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulcinella) by user Mister Vincenzo on 11 February 2023. In the original Italian, the text is "segreto di pulcinella." I have therefore changed the English text to reflect this and deleted the "pickin's" wording.
I'm adding this question and explanation just in case I'm mistaken. If someone has a source for this phrase in English, please feel free to revert my edit. 2600:100A:B1E3:725:0:1A:3DAC:8D01 (talk) 19:23, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Update to the above: I ran the original Italian paragraph through Google Translate. It translated "segreto di pulcinella" once as "pickin's secret" and once as "picnic secret" — so almost definitely an error introduced by user Mister Vincenzo, caused by over-reliance on Google Translate. Unfortunately this mistake appears to have been copied by several online bilingual dictionaries. 2600:100A:B1E3:725:0:1A:3DAC:8D01 (talk) 20:55, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Talk:St Nicholas Church, Kenilworth

message: Snowmanradio is quite right in assuming that Tomtom08 didn't know how to upload a picture! He had taken it that any pics in wiki were automatically available to 'pinch' for internal re-use, but is quite happy to be told this isn't the case. He has many abilities, but he's no expert on computers. The online explanation on how to upload only confused him. How would one go about uploading a picture from, say, a digital camera image stored on a hard-drive? Oh, and top marks for the list of incumbents.

replies: text: You can use images that are on the wiki, but it only wastes space to download it and upload it again, when a link can be made directly to the image that is already there.  My copyright included a statement that my image should not be used for profit and this was not carried forward to the new image.  I am requested that your copy be deleted because you only copied a low resolution format, and that you did not copy over the correct copyright (which I regard as important).

Orion the Hunter is 7 stars with 4 making up his shoulders and feet (with three in Orion's Belt). Etc.

Template talk:Germany topics

message: I've added a link to War guilt question to the "History" section. There are certainly arguments in favor of this, including the fact that it has been discussed for over one hundred years; in that sense, it has the staying power of the Dreyfus Affair.  On the other hand, one might say that this is more a debate about ideas than a particular event, and so should go either in "Politics" (which were definitely the main proponents, or actors), or "Society" (who were the most affected, and also took part, although less than the historians and politicians). To the extent that it *has* been discussed for a century, it's become of note as a long-running "event" in itself  in the way that the aftermath of Dreyfus has (and anyway, World War I—or the treaty that ended it—is definitely an event).  So, I really don't know where this fits best, but it definitely should be there somewhere. Eager to hear your thoughts on this. Mathglot (talk) 05:48, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

And I don't think that the sentence 'composition of morphisms in category theory is coined on composition of relations' is true. Do you have a reference for this?

I suggest that someone with knowledge of this add an explanation about where to get the font that would render this symbol.  Better yet, why not just refer to it as ";"?

thread_title:  Semicolon notation 

message: In English we read from the left margin of a page to its right margin. This ordering has implications for mathematical notation. After page 18, Graphs and Relations uses juxtaposition for composition of relations. The other major textbook, Relational Mathematics, uses semicolons from the outset. The reverse ordering follows from notation in courses of study of real variables and the chain rule for differentiation of a function. The context in such a course of study involves emphasis on functions rather than their arguments, giving the notation f(x), putting the function f in front of the argument x. Then composition with another function g is written g(f(x)), beginning a backwards notation. A similar backwardness shows up in the study of linear algebra where column vectors are sometimes transformed by a matrix. Thoughtful authors, cited at row and column vectors, use row vectors instead. The input of a row vector to the left of a matrix results in a row vector. Two composed linear transformations can be multiplied as matrices, or can be applied one after another to give the same result. Backwardness in linear algebra cannot be accomplished with the standard matrix multiplication. Perpetuating backward notation for composition of relations is unnecessary, serves no purpose, and contributes to confusion and mistakes. It is suggested that such notation should not be used. — Rgdboer (talk) 21:04, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Could you elaborate your issues with linear algebra? If the vectors are columns and application of linear maps as well as matrix multiplication happens from the left, the composition of functions results in the product of matrices in the same order.
