Talk:Bulls Radio

message: What is the official motto/slogan of WBUL? People keep changing it, someone needs to get a source and put the right slogan.--_ BaRiMzI _ 14:00, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Motto/Slogan 

message: The page was moved back to Bulls Radio because the station does not actually use WXBL in its branding. WXBL was created as a placeholder callsign to use while transitioning from 1620 AM only to WMNF HD-2 + 1620 AM. The station identifies itself as "Bulls Radio on WMNF Tampa 88.5 HD-2" and does not use WXBL in IDs. The "WXBL" callsign is not necessary because the 1620 AM falls under FCC Part 15.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.100.23.85 (talk) 06:09, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Page Move 

message: #Move? appears to have been closed with a reason not brought up in the move discussion; there may be information that counters it: Wikipedia:WikiProject Radio Stations#Naming conventions for stations with call signs deals with when "the official call sign should be used".  As explained in the prior #Page Move section, this station has never had a callsign; it's a Part 15 (no-license) station that used "WXBL" as fantasy name, and only briefly at that.  The real callsign "WXBL" is allocated to the U.S. Coast Guard.  (http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/callsign/mainch.pl provides a search.  Ships still get K and W callsigns.)  There hasn't been a broadcast station with WXBL as a callsign since at least the 1980s; otherwise it would appear in the FCC databases.  The only name this subject appears to be using is "Bulls Radio"; if any callsign applies, it would be WMNF, on which this "station" is an HD Radio channel (WMNF HD 2). --Closeapple (talk) 07:30, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Damaris Cudworth Masham

message: According to Damaris Cudworth Masham, Lady Masham (section 1.2 Portraits) on ProjectVox there exists no known extant portrait of Lady Marsham. The image published here has a reference to Findagrave, where it has been posted by a user of the same name as on Wikimedia, with no further referece of the source.

replies: text: I entirely agree, this portrait has no credentials at all. I mentioned this in Talk with the person who added it some time ago, at User talk:Jochen Burghardt#Image of Lady Masham? and he explained how it came about - a mislabelled or misidentified image file uploaded, and almost immediately inserted into other language articles on the subject. The User seemed equally unconvinced about it. I am now going to remove it, and I suggest that future attempts to reload it here should be resisted unless a solid provenance is shown. It is not, in any case, a contemporary likeness, but if it really was painted to represent Damaris Masham, even at a later date, then it might be valid. But where's the evidence?

message: There seems to be a bit of confusion about the year of birth. The cited source says 1659, but the ODNB link at the bottom of the page and DNB give 1658. Is there any reason to choose one over the other? Thanks. —howcheng  {chat} 21:04, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: As the given birth date is 18 January I expect this is a case of the old style of dating. In England, until the mid-18th century the year was (often) calculated, for birth and baptism purposes, to begin in late March rather than on 1 January. Hence the year of grace A.D. 1658 could be represented as beginning in March 1658 and ending in March following, which we would by modern reckoning include in 1659. This would, of course, include 18 January 1659 in the overlap period. The indication is probably, therefore, for 18 January 1658/59 (as such dates are sometimes written). However, one might want to check that some repeated confusion has not crept in over the years. I'm not quite sure how to check this at present for this particular event.

Talk:Phosphorine

message: Can somebody talk about the USES of this chemical?
Uses are twofold:
* this type of compound is investigated for its use in special catalysts as ligands
* they are also investigated to learn more about aromaticity. They can be compared to ordinary compounds like benzene and pyridine 
* the parent compound is not sold commercially though so in that sense practical uses do not exist

Talk:NGC 5253

message: The article states that the galaxy "was discovered by John Frederick William Herschel on 15 March 1787.[4]"  However, John Herschel was born in 1792. Moreover, reference [4] is to the scientific papers of his father, Sir William Herschel. Both these circumstances suggest that William Herschel is the discoverer. Indeed, pages 23 and 26 the book "Observing and Cataloguing Nebulae and Star Clusters: From Herschel to Dreyer's New General Catalogue", Cambridge University Press, 2010, indicates that NGC 5253 was discovered by William Herschel on 15 March 1787.

Talk:Tommaso Campanella

message: "Taken to Rome and held for a time by the Holy Office, Campanella was restored to full liberty in 1629 as Urban badly needed Campanella's magical skills to protect him from the dangers of two upcoming eclipses. The Pope's enemies thought they could take advantage of his credulity, and they confidently predicted that the eclipses in 1628 and 1630 surely heralded the Pope's demise. Campanella put into effect the natural magic practices described in his short treatise De siderali fato vitando (How To Avoid the Fate Dictated by the Stars). Campanella's magic worked and the Pope survived. In return the latter allowed the magician to set up a school in Rome to preach his ideas, while ignoring his blatant heresies."

Talk:Bernardino Telesio

message: The truth About Bernardino Telesio 
The greatest representatives of thought, in the order of time, are Nicholas of Cusa,
the 3 Southern italians Bernardino Telesio, Giordano Bruno, and Campanella; 
TELESIO ( The first of the modern !! )........ in his attempt to explain nature according to immanent principles, advances beyond common magic and alchemy, and lays the basis for modern physics.
As to Bernardino Telesio 
Stanford University  says :
Bernardino Telesio (1509-1588) belongs to a group of independent philosophers of the late Renaissance who left the universities in order to develop philosophical and scientific ideas beyond the restrictions of the Aristotelian-scholastic tradition. Authors in the early modern period referred to these philosophers as ‘novateurs' and ‘modern’. In contrast to his successors Patrizzi and Campanella, Telesio was a fervent critic of metaphysics and insisted on a purely empiricist approach in natural philosophy - he thus became a forerunner of early modern empiricism. He had a remarkable influence on Tommaso Campanella, Giordano Bruno, Pierre Gassendi, Francis Bacon, Thomas Hobbes and authors of the clandestine Enlightenment like Guillaume Lamy and Giulio Cesare Vanini. 
REF: 
Bernardino Telesio (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)(1992) Le concept de l'espace chez Telesio. In: Bernardino Telesio e la cultura napoletana, pp. 141-167. -----. (1990) Hobbes and Renaissance Philosophy. ...

What is the purpose of putting such a vague, anodyne statement full of weasel words, "may have felt", "may have been", "today's perspective" (haw haw), "seems", into an article that is supposed to mimic that of an encyclopedia?
