Talk:Burnaby-class ferry

message: outside lists or tables according to what? Given the limited space in infoboxes, we should be using well-known abbreviations.  —Joeyconnick (talk) 03:44, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: User:Alaney2k and I both agree, the full name should be used. Your edit was reverted by both of us. Consensus has been achieved. Saboteurest (talk) 14:57, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: That's pretty much the opposite of how consensus works. a) We weren't having a vote, b) if we were, that's a poll, not consensus, and c) even were a poll the be-all and end-all of how this dispute would be decided (which it wouldn't be), 2 editors with one opinion and another with a differing one is, again, not consensus. Consensus is particularly not a majority in a "vote" among only 3 editors. Now if you want to point me to policies and guidelines which inform your to-my-mind misguided viewpoint that abbreviations are fine in tables and lists but are forbidden in infoboxes, when infoboxes have similar space limitations and could be considered both tables and lists, then that's great... please link away. If not, then obviously this is a case of common sense where, in elements where display space is limited (e.g. an infobox), one would favour official/well-known/common abbreviations. —Joeyconnick (talk) 21:11, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Talk:FM 103.2

message: I'm unfamiliar with the station ID conventions outside of the US, but shouldn't radio stations be listed under their call letters as opposed to their FM or AM level? Squalk25 08:35, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

message: This morning (2007-09-19), FM103.2 (2CBA) changed its identity to Heart 103.2 (no relation to the stations already called Heart in Tasmania). This article will have to be moved, but I guess this is a fair time to ask whether it should be moved into an article named after the station name (Heart 103.2), or its call sign (2CBA)? Is there any discussion or consensus as to titles of Australian radio station articles yet (as to whether call signs should be used even if they appear nowhere in its identity)?
In any case, the duplication between the article at 2CBA and this one probably needs to be resolved as part of this - despite not being its identity since 2002, it still is its call sign, so there is no real reason why there should be more than one article between the two, the other being a redirect - wherever the article moves to... -Spiky Sharkie [ talk ] 23:09, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Dear readers,
All topics in Wikipedia encyclopedia regarding Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh are bombarded with Azeri propaganda. If you would like to learn anything about Armeian history or Armenians, please use other sources, not Wikipedia. The reason for this is simple, there is an anti-Armenian hysteria in present day Azerbaijan and Wikipedia is a heaven for them to try to change anything Armenian to reflect their hateful point of view.
::Your comment has nothing to do with the article, so I think its you who is using propaganda.
Actually he/she is dead right.  And it's not just Armenian pages that are under "attack" but also those of Serbs, Kurds, Greeks, etc. just to name a few.  Since anyone can edit wikipedia, often the editors have an agenda, which is baised, and use the article of wikipedia to spread it.  This seems like a lost cause, but it can be dealt with if only registered members could edit and if POV pushers were punished earlier rather then the long drawn out process that is currently in place.  All of this makes one wonder, what is the point of even editing on wikipedia, when anyone can change everyhting one wrote.  This isn't about vandelism, but of subtle POV pushing, which has taken a turn for the worse recently.  
As the above post said, please don't use wikipedia as your main source, it's very informative, but realize that there are very few specialists and editors without an agenda.--Moosh88 02:16, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

message: *Don't think about it as about hash - like sha256(ip). IP space is small, it's trivial to build a dictionary.
*If it would be something like sha256(ip + secret_key), privacy of all ips depends on secrecy of that secret_key, forever. There is now way how the system would be able to recover from successful attack.
*IP data are often misleading without further investigation and good understanding of internet technology. Its trivial to foil such test, false positives are certain

message: Although the timeline has quite a lot on advances in error-correcting codes, to me it seems at the moment it could particularly do with

* more of the important foundational results of information theory. 
* some of the milestone events in the first use of compression and forward error correction that really put the subject on the popular map -- eg the first use of error-correcting codes for deep-space satellite communication;  implications for error correction in the start of the modem industry;  perhaps the launch of the first compact disk... etc

Talk:Law of the Republic of Ireland

message: I had previously written in this article that:
:"While the doctrine [of stare decisis] clearly means that the present High Court is bound by decision of the present Supreme Court, it is not altogether clear whether the decisions of courts which previously performed the function of courts of last final appeal in Ireland — such as the British House of Lords — bind the present High Court."
An anonymous editor has replaced this with:
:"Decisions of courts which previously performed the function of courts of last final appeal in Ireland — such as the British House of Lords — do not bind the Irish Courts."
The anonymous editor gives Irish Shell v. Elm Motors [1984] IR 200 as a source for this proposition quoting the judgement of McCarthy J saying that:
:"In no sense are our Courts a continuation of, or successors to, the British courts."
In Elm Motors the Supreme Court was comprised of three judges. The entirety of the judgements of the other two judges are as follows:
:;"Griffin J.
:I agree with the judgment delivered by Mr. Justice McCarthy, save and except in respect of that portion of his judgment which deals with the effect of decisions of the House of Lords, the English Court of Appeal, or the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, and of the effect of Article 50 of the Constitution. In respect of these matters I neither agree nor disagree, as they were not argued or discussed on the hearing of this appeal. I would express no opinion on them, and would reserve any such opinion until such questions arise and are argued in an appropriate case.
:;O'Higgins C.J.
:I also agree and add the same reservations as are expressed in the judgment of Mr. Justice Griffin."
I think I'll revert the anonymous editor's edits. I'll also revert his/her changing of judgement to judgment, given that it is normally spelt with two es in modern Hibernian English. — Blue-Haired Lawyer t 13:24, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Liquid Paper

message: The main article states "The chemical name of liquid paper is titanium dioxide (TiO2.)"  This is not correct.  TiO2 may well be the white pigment used in the product (it is a common and very good white pigment) but the product, like any paint, contains pigment and vehicle and, like many paints, a solvent.  I can't properly edit the article, because I don't know what the vehicle and solvent are; I considered changing the article to read "The white pigment in Liquid Paper is titanium dioxide (TiO2,)" but chose not to, since I don't personally know that to be true either.  (I'm not disputing it, but I can't personally verify it, either.)
Jqavins 20:09, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The article is clearer now. Titanium Dioxide is clearly listed as an ingredient. I've updated the article to clarify the current solvent (naphtha) as an ingredient, and this is referenced for verification. I've also added information on the solvent that was in liquid paper for a number of years which made it infamous concerning sniffing related deaths. The current versions of liquid paper, from the perspective of solvent, seem to be much safer and non-toxic. Lantrix ::Talk::Contrib:: 05:30, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
