Talk:Hokkien pop

message: This article needs to be fixed. First of all, Taiwanese pop does not mean it is sung in Hokkien Chinese. Majority of Taiwanese pop has always been sung in Mandarin pop. The "Taiwanese" pop does not mean it is sung in Taiwanese languages (Chinese Minnan), it just means the pop is in "Taiwanese" style. 
I see that some people classify the actual mandarin Taiwanese pop into Mandopop, this is unfair since the mandarin pop in Taiwan is in Taiwanese style, and in fact the pop sung in Taiwanese are a minority compared to the Mandarin ones. To be honest, the page Mandopop should not even exist because nobody knows what that is and all the songs sung in Mandarin are mostly produced by Taiwanese artists and cultivated in Taiwanese styles. Most Mandarin speaking countries like China (Hong Kong), Singapore and so on all listen to Taiwanese style Mandarin pop and the Mandopop is Taiwanese pop.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjj84206 (talk • contribs) 01:13, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article quality 

message: The article has several problems and does not really present an up to date and balanced view on ABC. As an example, the "generic ABC" algorithm that is given does not capture the most general principle of ABC, but rather refers to the ABC-MCMC algorithm that was proposed by Marjoram 2003. Alternative formulations, including SMC algorithms, but also different acceptance functions have been proposed since. Some very important recent papers, particularly the 2010 review by M. Beaumont are not cited. I'll try to get back to this article if I have the time later, but I also wouldn't mind if someone else who knows about the topic has a go.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.65.51.39 (talk) 08:18, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  General quality 

message: We have noticed that the current version of the article on Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) is insufficient, as previously pointed out, and considering the rapidly growing number of users of the method. For this reason we are currently working on a new version of article on the form of "Topic Pages: PLoS Computational Biology Meets Wikipedia". For detailed information about Topics Pages see:
 http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pcbi.1002446
We intend to review the basics of ABC as well as extensions and improvements of the elementary method. We will also discuss practical concerns, theoretical issues, and known pitfalls in the use of ABC.
Please contact us if you have any objections or suggestions about the proposed article, or if you think that you could substantially contribute to our efforts.

Talk:Document Style Semantics and Specification Language

message: Shouldn't the article reveal that for all practical intents and purposes, DSSSL was displaced by CSS in the late 1990s?-- era (Talk | History) 10:50, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not really; they were never players in the same space.  DSSSL, like XSL, transforms semantically structured documents into layout specifications; CSS decorates a structure with formatting properties.  CSS caught on much more widely due to its simplicity and the fact that its target audience was the Web rather than large-scale publishers, but I don’t think it’s accurate to say that DSSSL was displaced by CSS. — crism (talk) 21:01, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Any discussion of CSS really needs to refer to Haakon Lie's PhD thesis. This explains many of the design decisions behind CSS, particularly those that are seen by CSS newcomers as "limitations" in CSS. CSS was intended to be the styling language in widespread use, not just one of many. This influenced its design, particularly by encouraging simplicty in both its understanding and use, its implementation (M$ & IE's failure to read the CSS spec notwithstanding) and even the processing overhead needed to implement CSS on small-scale devices. In particular he's quite clear that DSSSL was looked at before designing CSS, considered as a possible basis for the web stylesheet language, and then rejected for over-complexity. Thank goodness for that. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:27, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Sergeant Bluff-Luton High School

message: It is unsuitable and inappropriate to be listing the names of employees in a Wikipedia article. It is much too easy for a vandal to misspell a name or otherwise make fun of or annoy someone with a list of names, especially if there is no footnote linking the names to an official school Web site where they can be confirmed. Even if such a footnote existed, only constant checking by responsible editors would fix vandalism. Without names, vandalism is less annoying, and the names don't add much to the article anyway.

OK. Appologies. I'm new and I'm tripping spam sensors.

I considered adding the information directly to the article, but describing how to build a hot water panel doesn't seem that appropriate in an encyclopedia article.

This serves no purpose but to puff the collection. Sits favourably? What does that mean. Is this a list of private collections? If so, then we should just put a link in the "see also" section to a list of private collections. Just listing these names serves no real purpose. It was claimed that the facts are not in dispute; I don't see any facts to dispute, just a list of vaguely explained names. Why pick (only) these?

Many in Aliano want to move to northern Italy, where standards of living are higher, but residents fear losing their family and friends and their traditional lifestyle. Also many people can't grow their food due to the rain sliding down steep hills because that's only where they can grow their crops plus their crops will drown from the rain and die.
