Talk:Industrial engineering

message: Highly recommended to remove the term money, which has nothing much to do with any instance. The correct term is a derivate of the term leverage, however that is not applicable, energy leveraged isn´t that good either. A phrase that describes that term is
in relation to Leveraging Aeon Savings, which is defacto what a monetairy circulation, valuation, is about, where the economic unit can be saved up, amortized, but in reality never depreciated without incurring a loss in enthropic relationships.
The term people is not appropriate either, in that that should be species, industrial engineering being validatable for any species in terms of people, AND for any species, where there are no people.
Read the change, keep perspective, and if within 3 to 5 days the change grinds on innumerous nerves, revert.
Thank you.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.248.123.72 (talk) 16:09, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  First section. Review by reading. 

message: This article begins by defining IE as the "branch of engineering which deals with the optimization of complex processes or systems". However, it makes no attempt to define what might be regarded as a "complex" system. The article also fails to discuss the means by which a system characterised by its inherent complexity might be optimised.
Contemporary research relating to the behaviour of complex systems may still be considered as being in its infancy. However, accepted definitions and examples of complex systems are more than sufficient to assert that, due to the nature of complexity, it is not possible to predict their behaviour. Hence, in relation to this article, a pertinent question is: How can a complex process or system that is characterised as being unpredictable possibly be optimised?
Simply put, the article destroys it's own credibility from the off by presenting its subject matter in terms that the remainder of its narrative fails to acknowledge, far less discuss in the context of an "engineering" discipline. Thus, the dilemma is a case of either: o1/ Changing the terminology used to define IE or o2/ Provide a satisfactory narrative to substantiate its defining terms (a course of action that applies irrespective of the chosen terminology). 77.100.175.181 (talk) 00:13, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

Category talk:Computer networks

message: Too many articles; most should be filed into appropriate subcategories. -- Beland 20:27, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: This category should be called 'computer networking'. This is the name of the academic discipline, textbooks and how it appears in any taxonomy. TreveXtalk 23:41, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: TreveX's suggestion is good. Someone recently created :Category:Computer networking and it redirects here. I propose that the "Computer networking" category be moved into this positions of the networking tree, making it the root category. "Computer networks" would become of subcategory of "Computer networking." The current subcategories of "Computer networks" would be moved to "Computer networking" as appropriate. The articles in "Computer networks," which I am currently going through, need to be redistributed to the correct categories anyway. Only articles on specific computer networks would remain in the "Computer networks" category. If there are no major objections and someone hasn't done it already, I'll move the categories in about a week. JonHarder 22:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Backpacking (hiking)

message: I think there should be a section on minamlists also. We are much diffrent from you ultralight guys!
How so? Where the ultralights might carry a whole titanium cookset, do minimalists just carry the one cast iron skillet? Are the any sources for the minimalist style? -Will Beback 07:05, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It sounds like minimalists are extreme ultralights. -Will Beback 19:43, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It still sounds like "minimalists" are exactly the same as ultralighters to me.  Carrying fewer items and modding what they do carry is pretty much the backbone of the ultralight style - cutting your toothbrush down isn't exactly a bold new take on backpacking.75.60.97.223 (talk) 11:39, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

text: I'd like to hazard a guess that ultralights prefer to reduce the weight of each item, while minimalists would rather reduce the number of items.  We could have a lumped section on styles of backpacking, but we don't have enough material yet. --Smack (talk) 18:08, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Backpacking Wiki 

message: I believe that the recent edit, which deleted a fair amount was not vandalism but a genuine  attempt at improving the article, which is certainly overly wordy in places. However, it might be better to first  discuss this here, and to start pruning more slowly. But I'm inclined to agree that the sections "Professional Backpacking" and "Motivation" might well be deleted, or, at least, reduced to sentences elsewhere in the article. Rwood128 (talk) 21:12, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The idea of professional backpackers is very dubious. Soldiers are soldiers, geologists are ... and so forth. The two named, long distance/challenge walkers presumably earn their living from writing and lecturing. The section "Motivation"  doesn't seem appropriate for an encyclopaedia article, though the odd sentence might used in another section. Rwood128 (talk) 20:54, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Chockstones

message: I suggest that disambiguation is required here.
While Chockstone is without question a mountaineering term, in the general sense it refers not to the item of climbing protection, but to any detached chunk of rock that happens to be stuck in a rock chimney, constriction, or crack.
In fact, the item of climbing protection was named after its passing resemblance to a Chockstone, even though it is constructed not of rock but of metal. 
This term for the item of climbing protection is, however, not in common usage in North America. Here it is known much more commonly as a Nut or perhaps even a Stopper. 
However, folks in the U.K. may still continue to refer to them primarily as Chocks, since I think that is where such usage originated. 
Legend has it that U.K. climbers first began to use artificial chocks. These were in the form of large-size machine nuts gathered from the railway tracks and then slung with cord.

text: Just having a two line attribution at the front of the section body would, in my opinion, be a small price to pay for the difference between a stubby good article, and this.   But, Barkeep removed the one I had put in the original section this text appeared in, and I seem to be unable to find an alternative that he doesn't say violates the policies.     If someone someone can tell me how an obvious author attribution can be put on to cover an entire section, without running up against those rules, I'd appreciate it, and would be more than willing to put up appropriate text in accordance with that.

message: </center>
Would one consider a film like "The Money Masters" an underground film? It's a historic-economic documentary that is kept censored by wikipedia, although it has reached probably a million viewers online, as well as endorsed by a Nobel laureate and according to some it has even been shown on PBS. Nunamiut (talk) 06:11, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  What is considered an underground film? 

message: In the article, the writer posits: "Humans, as they are not a naturally burrowing species, often find subterranean activities such as underground film to be disorienting." This seems beside any point in the discussion. Humans, as a non-burrowing species, have extended themselves way beyond any limits set by nature. Outer space, anyone? Hell, Wikipedia! Anyway, isn't the point of (at least some) underground film to be disorienting? It's got nothing to do with venue. Surely the yen to burrow is also a psychological trope. I for one like the notion, and anyway don't mind watching it at the bottom of a mineshaft. Or on a rooftop in downtown Tokyo.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ironiclogic (talk • contribs) 16:17, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
