Talk:Prototype theory

message: This article states, "Prototype Theory is a model of graded categorization in Cognitive Science, where all members of a category do not have equal status." But this point is directly denied by Lakoff, citing Rosch, in the article "Cognitive Models and Prototype Theory" in Concepts: Core Readings, MIT Press, 1999. There, he clearly states that goodness-of-example ratings (a prototype effect) do not  reflect degree of category membership. He cites Rosch on the same point. The whole article seems to be based on a misunderstanding. Or maybe the problem is just with the ambiguous phrase 'equal status'. Is this referring to category membership or merely degree of prototypicality?

thread_title: Contradiction

message: In cognitive linguistics, a prototype is not the same as a conventional stereotype. Not even close. Rosch has defined the word prototype quite rigorously and exhaustively, resulting in a specific definition bearing little resemblence to the common idea of a stereotype. Someone please fix this blatant error.

message: I could not understand the following sentence and am not sure what the author meant it say but there seem to be more than one grammatical error so I'd request the author to re-write rather than someone guessing what it was supposed to say: "Molesworth, Bowler, and Hampton (2005) found signs of the prototype effect is children with autism and Asperger syndrome showed signs of prototype effects, yet the effects were not diminished from children without autism or Asperger syndrome."--AnthonyTF 13:44, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sentence structure problem 

message: Personally, I am a big fan of prototype theory but I think this entry could be enriched by adding a section on critique. Anyone want to add that?

message: The section on cultural genocide relies on 6 pages in Stevenson’s book, and exclusively criticizes Jennness.

thread_title: Accusation of “cultural genocide"

message: Noticed descrepancy regarding Jenness's date of retirement. de Laguna states "official retirement from the Intelligence Service and from the museum came in 1947" (p.250); Collins & Taylor also states his year of retirement as 1947 (p.77); Jenness and Jenness, however, states it was October 8, 1948, and describes his responsibilities that year, adding in footnote that his actual employment termination wasn't until April 7, 1949 due to 6 months retirement leave (p.202). 
As the last source offers the most detailed retirement date and duties served up until that time (and in footnote cites the actual file of minutes of Treasury Board's Meeting (27 April, 1949) regarding the decision on Diamond's monthly superannuation amount), perhaps this source should be considered the definitive one.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mgmontgo (talk • contribs) 17:11, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Clarinet Sonatas (Brahms)

message: In two separate recordings I have, the Clarinet Sonata No. 2 in E flat has four movements, not three. They are listed as:
*1. Allegro amabile
*2. Allegro appasionato
*3. Andante con moto
*4. Allegro non troppo
Not sure of the actual sheet music, but it seems when it's performed, they break these up into four movements. Should they be lsited as such? 
--Waliy sherpa (talk) 22:28, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  No. 2 in E flat movements 

message: As far as I can tell, none of the information in the second sonata's section is actually correct, and frankly reads like an analysis of a completely different work. I've reverted it off for the time being, the revision can be found here: . I'm providing a breakdown of points in the analysis that don't appear to be correct below:
* The Allegro amabile first movement doesn't feature an Andante section
* I'm doubting the main theme being "heroic and passionate" with the marking amabile "amiable, pleasant"
* The exposition of the first movement never reaches Ab; the second subject appears to be the sotto voce theme in Bb
* The tempo of the second movement is given as Allegro appassionato, not Allegro molto appassionato
* The trio is in B, not Bb, and is only presented once, not twice
* The second movement does not have a substantial coda, ending quietly shortly after the end of the second scherzo section
* The third movement ends Allegro, not Allegro vivo, and is in variation form, not sonata form
* Again, Ab isn't touched on, and it certainly wouldn't be the main key of a movement in Eb
* The third movement does not restate the first theme of the first movement

Talk:Plateau (mathematics)

message: I imported the article from planetmath "as is", without thinking much. Now it comes to my mind whether this is a "good" definition. Namely, shouldn't the "plateau" be full-dimensional? I.e., contour lines are not plateaus. 
At least the 1-dimensional case hints at this: a single point is clearly not a "plateau". 
So, what is the actual usage for multivariate  functions? Mikkalai 22:00, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know these matters, so I cannot answer your question. But most likely this article is right. As you know, mathematicians abuse naming conventions a lot. For example, field (mathematics) has nothing to do with a real field (think flowers and harvest); and ring (mathematics) has something to do with a real ring only in a very particular case. So don't worry if your physical intuition does not seem to correspond to what this definition implies. Oleg Alexandrov 23:09, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I am not worried about the intuition; I am worried about the redundancy. The usage of the "plateau" term is pretty widespread for univariate functions, but in this case there is no ambiguity. Like you, I have no idea about the usage in higher dimensions, but to me it is quite natural to  separate the  contour lines and the places where the notion of "contour line" fails, which would be "true" plateau. Mikkalai 00:50, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

text:  Honestly, I don't know. If you want, you could go back to planetmath, and ask the author about it. Until then, I would suggest that we leave the article the way it is, because we don't know if what we change is correct or not. What do you think? Oleg Alexandrov 01:39, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: I reviewed, and Shhhnotsoloud's changes seem appropriate, and in accordance to MOS:DAB.  Specifically, this page had a laundry list of partial title matches which were appropriately removed.  No one interested in ancient calendaring systems would enter "Lunar" and reasonably expect to find an article on "Lunar mansion", for example. The dab page is not an index of things related to the Moon. I note that the See also section already includes  which a reader might find useful.  I support reverting back all the changes made to clean up this page. Coastside (talk) 20:22, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Fair enough, thanks. Please also consider requesting a reopening of the above move discussion, because my neutral, and possibly 's oppose, were based on the inclusion of such language and links into the disg. page. Lunar means the Moon, and that seems to be the article for the common and primary redirect.

replies: text: Lunar orbit, lunar landing, lunar eclipse, those and dozens of other examples all use "lunar" as either the proper name of the Moon or the common nickname for the Moon. Moon seems the obvious redirect. Even though a video game series, two songs, a design consultancy, a Linux system, a camera, and apparently the name of a birth control pill, all share the name, the most common usage of lunar is in reference to the Moon. Just wanted to give that viewpoint here and move my comment from neutral to Strong Support. Randy Kryn (talk) 23:06, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: (edit conflict) FWIW I don't think it hurts to include these things on the dab page, and we shouldn't blindly follow MOS guidelines where there's good reason not to. The basic argument above was that someone searching for "lunar" would perhaps be more intereted in subjects relating to the moon (though not the moon itself specifically), rather than a video game, or a song, or something else.
