Talk:Little Orphan Annie

message: Currently, there is this sentence (as of the date written) in the article:
:, Gray was reviled by  for  in the strip to the poor about hard work, initiative, and motivation while .
I understand that it was likely an obvious issue, but it sounds very subjective. It almost sounds like a personal opinion. 
# We have  followed by  and . Those words in a single sentence makes this sound as though it is based on a personal opinion. In fact, this is an angry personal opinion.
# While  is allowed, since this is an angry response to the strip, it would be better to offer an example. Were there articles about demonstrations or opinion pieces in newspapers? Perhaps a book on the subject may say something and someone can quote a few words to explain this, then cite it.
# The word  must simply go. It has a religious connotation and should never be used. Its use here is only an angry opinion; a religious doctrine that is being used in a very disparaging way. What I believe was actually meant is , which I will change now.
# Saying that he is  sounds like an opinion. What is well to you may not be what is well to me. If we mean that the poor were poor and the wealthy had a "well" income then use  or even  instead. These are more specific. Today, being comfortable is without worry of money. This also means that this is a fact and so a citation will be needed. Someone can even be more specific and find a citation about his success. There may even be archival information about his taxes in the 1920's. A neat little factoid like how much he made would create an interest value to the article. Sometimes they're in census records and Ancestry may be a great resource, if someone has access. Ancestry's Newspapers.com may even hint at how many of his things sold for. As a last resort, someone can simply repeat a citation about his success that is from elsewhere in the article. For now though, I will change that to "while enjoying his successful lifestyle." It still needs a citation but I think that's a fairly obvious conclusion for all to understand.
# Lastly and this is more of an after-thought. I will change reviled to mocked. Sadly, modern English doesn't exactly use the word "reviled" any more. The word mocked is much more modern.

Talk:Oscillator sync

message: What I would like from Wikipedia is the definitive explanation on "hard" and "soft" oscillator sync, as found on some early analog synthesizers. I have found 2 completely different explanations on the internet, both credible...
One states that soft sync only resets the second oscillator if it is within a certain margin of its starting point. Another states that soft sync makes a triangle wave change direction, whereas hard sync resets a sawtooth or pulse to its starting point. Can someone please shed light on this?
----
Added Hard and Soft Sync definitions, including the "Weak Sync" definition orignally incorrectly labeled as "soft sync" that causes confusion.
also, hard sync and soft sync now redirect here, so people who are looking for one (or who have never heard of the second kind and so wouldn't think to generalize their search) will yield this site, which hopefully garners it some attention.
It needs oscilloscope images of both, and it needs to be listed in the category "types of synthesis" if possible.
--Toxikator 13:58, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Prompted by a discussion on the Synth-DIY list in August 2009, I edited this page severely. It seemed to have material from a digital implementer overlaid with point-scoring balance from an analog fan. So much material was tangential, and in fact much was incorrect such as the naive approach to digital implementation. I enumerated some more sync types, moved digital material to its own section and added BLIT etc references, and added a section where people can put in other synth architectures.Rick Jelliffe (talk) 19:37, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I understand the reasons for wanting to drop the old terminology regarding sync, but as anyone who has read the literature on the topic and/or synth manuals, 'master' and 'slave' were historically used and still used today.

Now, the length in the running prose doesn't need to be so precise, but the length in the infobox should be left alone to reflect the precision of the sources.  isn't overly precise for surveying purposes.

Talk:Blade for Barter

message: This entire article reads like an advertisment rather than an encyclopedic article. It need a serious rewrite or it may be nominated for deletion. As I've never heard of it, I would not be a good one to do this. --nihon 06:51, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually I think it is because you have not heard of it that it reads that way. You have to know what you are talking about (which you admit to not doing) before you pass judgement. Learn about this manga first then say if this is an advertisment second which you might not after reading it. If I were to pass judgement on other articles I have seen on here without knowing what they are talking about then there are a lot I would say are ads and probably be dead wrong about, it has been cleaned up nonetheless. However I am a bit concerned that you thought it read as an advertisement. I've seen a lot of entries in paper bound encyclopedias that, if you still consider this to have been an advertisment, are much more advertisments and yet are put in the encyclopedia because they are in reality merely very descriptive of styles and artworks about that which is being discussed in the entry. Ryokosha 04:03, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've read plenty of articles about unfamiliar topics that didn't sound like advertisments. This one sounds like it's trying to sell the manga rather than tell about the manga in an objective way. See WP:NPOV for more information. --nihon 05:01, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: But you imply you have read others that did sound like it that also weren't advertisments. I've read that link and I see certain things in it that don't make sense but that is not for discussion here; if people wanted to sell they wouldn't be so indirect, they would say buy now or something. All I see, is something that is more descriptive in various ways then people might like and therefore suddenly becomes an advertisment. Rule one of life there is no neutral point of view, we are all bias in one way or another and all carry that into what we say and do in daily life. In discussions there cannot be neutrality or nothing would get done nor can there be neutrality in things like articles or they would all be a title and nothing more. It is a great concept on paper, or on screen in this case, but it is an impossibility in reality, nuetrality does not exist beyond an entry in a dictionary. At any rate I still think you are looking at something that is descriptive in a way other entries are not and misinterperting that to mean this is an advertisment.

thread_title:  "Future" section 

message: The directions of highways have been described from north-to-south or from east-to-west for thousands of years. This is something that goes all the way back to Ancient Rome. If you do not believe that, it goes all the way back to colonial times in American and the early years of our Republic, such as in the National Road.
Furthermore, the mileposts of the U.S. Highways in this country are numbered from north-to-south or from east-to-west, with the lowest numbers on the north or on the east.
In some states, the mileposts are numbered from north-to-south or from east-to-west by counties, but in most states, this is done uniformly all the way across the state. For example, in Georgia, milepost 1 on U.S. Highway 41 is locted one mile south of the border with Tennessee, and the highest number is located close to the border with Florida.
All of the descriptions of U.S. Highway 95, either for the whole highway, or by the states, should be presented in north-south order.
Once again, this is something that has been done for centuries: describing things, including highways, in the north-south order, in a contiguous way. For example. What were the original 13 states of the United States?
Answer: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. We never see them listed starting with Georgia and going north.98.67.171.176 (talk) 17:00, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices specifies that mileposting starts at the southern or western terminus (or state border) and proceed northerly or easterly except in the case of a full beltway, where it runs clockwise.

Talk:Agreement (linguistics)

message: The Function section is totally nonsense, and should be dropped.  Adding redundancy is correct but there's no useful function.  I challenge the author to provide concrete examples to support the claim.
I deleted the section on German language as it was largly incorrect, unclear and incomplete. I removed information on pronouns as diffeent pronouns is not agreement in the sense of this article.
Besides, I would suggest to relocate the information on history of the English language to the corresponding article. I also find the Function part partially non-sense. Newydd 10:29, 23 Mai 2007 (UTC)
Japanese does have agreement. Subject and object agreement for honorific vs. plain is grammaticised - 'Huruyama-kun ga kaimasu' vs. 'Huruyama-sensei ga okai-ni-narimasu' and 'Huruyama-san to aimasu' vs. 'Huruyama-sensei to oai-simasu'. Nouns change based on whether you're talking about: for example, your house ('uchi') or someone else's ('otaku') so you say 'watashi no uchi' or 'Huruyama-san no otaku'. This is agreement. It's not exactly the same as what we normally think of as agreement - from a western perspective, it is odd agreement, but that is even more reason for the article to cover it.

message: I don't think "go / goes" counts as an irregularity in agreement. Sure, there are suppletive forms in tenses, but "go => goes" is as regular as "hit => hits" and fits in with the rules outlined above it.
