Talk:Poly(methyl acrylate)

message: Disposable diapers use poly(sodium acrylate).
Polyacrylamide also absorbs a lot of water, but I don't think they use it in diapers. It is used for polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) though.
Poly(methyl acrylate) does not absorb significant amounts of water, and is not used in diapers.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.59.150.148 (talk) 17:52, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
Talk:Switchback

message: Mildly surprised this wasn't here before, as a Google search for "switchback railway" throws up 795 hits including many American ones. My Oxford Reference Dictionary does say this usage is "Brit." though, so I've followed that; it's certainly quite familiar to me, and personally I'd be more likely to use it in this sense than to mean "hairpin turn".

Talk:Bouffon

message: The section entirely removed made no sense in English -- the generalization about the purpose and result of Bouffon --
::"The ideal performance for a bouffon would be one where the audience is wildly entertained, and then go home, realize their lives are meaningless, and commit suicide. This of course is a theoretical ideal instead of an anticipated outcome."
-- that needs re-thinking / re-working, also citation to some source which describes the need for a sense of "suicide"(?) as a result of all this... Interesting article, but sounds pretty far-out in this abbreviated form so far. Needs better links to the guy in Germany who teaches this nowadays as a theatrical technique: cites to his work, particularly. Also needs historical sections about court jesters, grotesquerie, King of Fools, other related.

Talk:Moroccan literature

message: I have just deleted the following paragraph about foreign writers in Morocco, as they are not part of Moroccan literature. Rather their writing should be mentioned in their personal articles.

thread_title:  modern Moroccan literature needs expansion 

message: I have just done a comprehensive revision of copyediting and deleted several images that are not really giving much information about the literature. WP is not a picture book, and images should be used in an appropriate number so as not to distract from the text. - Also, just as other articles about country-specific literatures of North Africa and West Asia, this article is meant to be about Moroccan literature as a national literature, made up of various linguistic traditions. - So even the Andalusi and other periods before Moroccan independence can only be considered as forerunners and historical writing by authors who lived and wrote in the region called Morocco. In other words, there is a difference between authors writing in pre-modern Morocco and those that constitute the history of Moroccan learning and literature of all kinds. The article talks a lot about learned writers of non-fiction works without making the difference between learned non-fiction writing and fiction literature in the modern sense. This should be clearly explained in the early section of the article. And since there is a huge number of modern fiction writing by Moroccan authors, this would merit a separate article.

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/OXES

message: *Comment - I'm sure if you used that self prescribed "rule" you could probably delete 75% of the bands on Wikipedia, given the gaping ambiguity of the term "main online home" as a result of the majority of mainstream bands also having Myspace pages, which many people can attain tour info, buy merchandise, etc. OXES have a page on their label, in addition to their official page, so I'm not exactly sure what the point of this arbitrary rule was, and why it was put here.

"Bahamut" is an Arabic cognate of the Hebrew word "Behemoth", and refers to one of the three great monsters in Hebrew folklore, Behemoth, Leviathan, and Ziz—one inhabiting the land, one inhabiting the ocean, and one inhabiting the sky.

Talk:Erengisle Suneson, Earl of Orkney

message: Angus, you moved Erengisle, Earl of Orkney to Erengisle Suneson, Earl of Orkney; stating reason Other Norwegian-period Orkney earls have name + patronym or name + epithet (or epithet + name). However, that format certainly is no rule nor convention. If so happens to be, comes from coincidence or intentional moves for one system. However, that system is somewhat against current naming conventions, and besides is a wee too long, as shorter is possible. I can assure that in Swedish sources, as soon as he got to use the title jarl, often his patronymic was dropped. (Perhaps he wanted to assimilate with Jarl Birger.) I think patronymic or epithet is useful only if there are more than one with the same first name.  Marrtel 23:56, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
