Talk:Demand-pull inflation

message: This is very much a keynesian theory and is contradicted by the monetarists who describe systemic inflation as something that's entirely a function of too much money being created by the banking system. This article needs to be expanded to make it more clear that it's a contested theory and not a consensus accepted fact. TMLutas (talk) 17:21, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

message: Does not explain this model of inflation coherently, and it references the graph, which should be helpful, without describing or defining terms, or what the graph represents.

Talk:Fatima (given name)

message: The use of the term "Fatima" most commonly refers to the appartitions of Our Lady of Fatima at Fatima, Portugal, in 1917.

message: I changed the language about the Chinese Muslim surname "Ma." I had always been taught (by very reliable sources) that the commonness of the name among Muslims derived from the fact that many or most Chinese Muslims are originally from the Central Asia horse-oriented cultures and that the surname "Ma" simply refers to its direct translation, "horse." 
So I changed it to allow some doubt as to the relationship between "Ma" and "Fatima."

message: I don't know what it is based on, but Spain has never used any currency named or related to the dollar.

replies: text: I think it's odd, too; and, if Spain is to be shown as a country that formerly used a "dollar", why then should countries that currently still use a peso ($) not also be coloured dark green? The only reason I can think of was that "dollar" was the common name in English for the Spanish currency; contrariwise, e.g. Mexican pesos have never been commonly called "dollars". *shrug* It is still somewhat misleading, though, as Spain never called their own currency dollars.

thread_title:  Inconsistency in History section 

message: There are a couple of sentences flagged for undue weight.  
In the Charlie Brown article, Charlie Brown is clearly defined as an archetype, and even though this article doesn't say as much about Lucy, it's hard not to view Lucy through a comparable lens.  
Given that the article has not introduced the idea that Lucy might represent an archetype, it's hard to see why some of these remarks are germane.  
On the other hand, a psychiatrist booking off to chew gum ... well, how can you leave that out, if archetype is anywhere to be found in the Peanuts gallery? — MaxEnt 20:39, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: Hyphens may be awkward but they do not change pronunciation.  Well, if you can't abide the actual common name of the plant, we have two options:  take it to the Tree of Life group, or move it to Chamaecyparis lawsoniana.

message: The introduction is very well done and "attention-grabbing" with the quick facts about extreme plant movements. However, I think the whole article could benefit from a physiological summary of this behavior. How is it possible for plants to move so rapidly? There must be some researchers who have delved into the topic. My guess is that calcium is, in some way, involved.
Something that could also be discussed is the evolutionary advantage of this behavior. Why did these behaviors evolve? For example, what is the evolutionary benefit to the white mulberry tree shooting pollen out at half the speed of sound? There might be a research paper or review article which has written about this.
