Talk:Ogun

message: This section seems very strange. I never heard that, in some regions of the Northeast, Ogum is related to Saint Sebastian – only to Saint George. Also, in Rio Grande do Sul, the southernmost Brazilian state, the Candomblé tradition is almost non-existent. --Tonyjeff 14:30, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Ogum in Afro-Brazilian tradition

message: if you research with more afrocentric perspective on religion, mytholgoy and respect for ancient pre christianic divinity... i think you will find, that this current interpretation of this yoruban deity is tainted with a eurocentric understanding of this deity's accuracy...
if you understand this god... then you understand to know him is to fear him...
please use your own intuition to alter this previous article accordingly...
there are many aspects of western lifestyle which are not acceptable to the understanding of life by ancient africans.... with this in mind.. please alter accordingly.... with thanks... glory be the creator... and in this case olodumare.... give thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.11.189.150 (talk) 18:36, August 15, 2009

thread_title:  Source ??? 

message: There is no historical source that the dynasty of the Germiyan principality was Kurdish.
there is no conclusive evidence in the pages cited as the source, based only on personal inference and guesswork
It is thought that the name Germiyan comes from the name Kirman, Another claim is that the dynasty name is thought to come from the Persian "girma" meaning hot, in other words, the dynasty was probably calling itself "Ilıcalar". (Hot Springs) 
A significant Kurdish-speaking population within the principality is never mentioned, on the contrary, there is only one village in Uşak, called "Kurd".
How is it that this principality is claimed to be a Turkish-Kurdish confederation, despite the fact that the principality does not have a second language, Kurdish, and the Kurdish population fills only one village?
What is the source of the Yezidi population? If there are so many, why are there no Yazidi temples in the regions or not mentioned in historical records?
Even though the dynasty is from the Oghuz-Turkmen Avşar tribe, how is it claimed to be Turkish-Kurdish?
The page needs to be rearranged. Burtigin (talk) 18:00, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

message: The article ends with a mention of Zodiac and Miami Vice, in the context of grain reduction. Grain is a quality of films. Both these movies were shot on digital cameras, i.e., no film was involved. If grain exists in these films, its because Lowry Digital put it back in in order to make it look "film-like." I would recommend changing the examples used to movies that were actually originated on film.

Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Rugby league incidents

message: The Wikipedia article 'List_of_Rugby_league_incidents' was recently deleted without much discussion. I ask that it be restored, as it the incidents concerned have received massive publicity in major newspapers in Rugby League countries (eg, Australia, New Zealand etc). All the incidents listed were prominently featured in the news media, and were painstakingly referenced. It was one of the most referenced articles in Wikipedia.
Wikipedia's coverage of Rugby League is now nothing but fan pages, featuring unreferenced fanboy comments. Wiki's rugby pages are now no different to the info on other rugby fan sites. Wiki's pages should feature both positive and negative information. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case.  212.202.176.51 19:12, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Untitled 

message: I don't see the need for a separate article on Usando.  It's merely a historical name for one (or possibly several, at different times) islands that already have their own articles.  Furthermore, the historical name is only of interest insofar as it relates to the dispute over the Liancourt Rocks.  As such, I suggest that any usable material be merged into Liancourt Rocks and possibly Jukdo (island), and this page be made into a redirect to Liancourt Rocks (since it already describes historical uses and controversies over the name Usando), or alternatively, made into a disambiguation page with links to the islands that may have been historically referred to under this name.  --Reuben 18:57, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: An anonymous user has now pasted the old text back in.

replies: text: Maybe it evolved underneath the ice, or maybe the moon wasn't always frozen. Geothermal springs (which can also be found under the deep ocean on Earth) may have provided a source of heat (in Star Trek, geothermal vents are mentioned as existing on it), as well as gravitational interaction with it's gas giant parent planet. It is not impossible, some have even speculated the moon Europa, of Jupiter, in our own solar system, could have life under it's ice, if liquid water exists down there. Nobody knows for sure, though, but it is possible. mike4ty4 00:57, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Double deficit (education)

message: This topic may be better presented as part of the "dyslexia" topic.  The double deficit hypothesis is specifically about dyslexia and not about education in general, or even about reading difficulties in general.  Therefore, I propose merging this article with the dyslexia page.  
Note that the dyslexia page is still in considerable flux and needs a great deal of work.  However, this topic rightly belongs if not *in* the dyslexia article then set up as part of a set of articles related to dyslexia.

message: 2009 Research does not support the Double deficit Hypothesy
Naming problems do not reflect a second independent core deficit in dyslexia: Double deficits explored.
Vaessen A, Gerretsen P, Blomert L.
Department of Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Maastricht, Maastricht 6200 MD, The Netherlands. a.vaessen@psychology.unimaas.nl
The double deficit hypothesis states that naming speed problems represent a second core deficit in dyslexia independent from a phonological deficit. The current study investigated the main assumptions of this hypothesis in a large sample of well-diagnosed dyslexics. The three main findings were that (a) naming speed was consistently related only to reading speed; (b) phonological processing speed and naming speed loaded on the same factor, and this factor contributed strongly to reading speed; and (c) although general processing speed was involved in speeded naming of visual items, it did not explain the relationship between naming speed and reading speed. The results do not provide support for the existence of a second independent core naming deficit in dyslexia and indicate that speeded naming tasks are mainly phonological processing speed tasks with an important addition: fast cross-modal matching of visual symbols and phonological codes.
