Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Raphael1/Evidence

message: Raphael isn't a vandal. Disruptive, yes. Vandal, no. There is a difference, and it is possible to be disruptive to the point of meriting blocks without being a vandal. From the evidence I've seen so far his actions haven't violated any of the definitions in WP:-(. --Sam Blanning(talk) 15:19, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There's only one words that comes to mind that describes someone repeatedly and disruptively hiding the exact same image that most people think it is best to display – and that word is vandalism.  And if you're going to define vandal as "one who commits vandalism", then yes, Raphael1 is a vandal.  He's not solely a vandal, as he does do other stuff that may legitimately be called content disputes, but when it comes to the display of the image, that was pure vandalism.  --Cyde↔Weys 17:16, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Cyde, that's a bad way think of vandalism.  We define vandalism very narrowly for a reason.  Attempts to make the encylopedia better, "no matter how misguided", are not vandalism.  Calling someone's edits vandalism is equivalent to admitting that you've given up on assuming good faith.  As long as he believes he's making the encyclopedia better, it's not vandalism.  If doing something in the face of opposition constituted vandalism, then lots of us would be vandals, and you'd be one of the first.  I'm so completely convinced of Raphael1's good faith, that I cannot agree with a characterization of him as a vandal. -GTBacchus(talk) 17:21, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I am not sure the reference taken from the novel to anti-Americanism is of quite the same stripe as Kingsley's prejudices against the Irish or Catholics. The entry seems to overlook that at the time he wrote this novel America was engaged in its Civil War, in which Kingsley was very interested - and on the side of the North. He expresses admiration for Fremont in his previous novel, Two Years Ago (1857).
Might not his reference to Americans be better contextualized than it currently is? There were evidently several kinds of Americans in 1862 and Kingsley does not generalize. Cerreno (talk) 15:56, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Neostriatum

message: The term neostriatum must not be used anymore. Comparisons with non-mammalian genera have been desastrous. The caudoputamen, caudatoputamen or others are anatomical negligences. The belonging to the striatum is based on a particular neuronal, and clearly differentiating, constitution (see primate basal ganglia system). The pallidum or other striatal targets are not striatal. The term striatum, which was itself a simplification and a clarification by the Vogt (1941) of the "corpus striatum" (that contained everything) suffices. The striatum is a single and continuous mass with a toric geometry. The putamen, caudate and fundus are simple topographical parts that must not be given too much importance since the functional partition, given by cortical afferences, does not exactly fit with it --83.199.60.70 15:36, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Could somebody please verify the route map at Template:Amtrak_Adirondack? It appeared a bit botched, as there was a Hudson River crossing between NY and Albany/Rensselaer, while both of them are on the same (east) side of the Hudson (and there is a Hudson river crossing north of Albany). Similar with the Junction to "Empire Service, Lake Shore Limited, and Maple Leaf" that turns off the Adirondack from south to the west - it appeared twice. If you follow the track on google http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Albany-Rensselaer+Amtrak,+Rensselaer,+NY,+United+States&sll=42.654541,-73.72736&sspn=0.100368,0.161362&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Albany-Rensselaer+Amtrak&ll=42.641031,-73.741093&spn=0.100389,0.161362&t=h&z=13 it appears that the Junction and the Bridge should only appear north of the station, so I removed the southern pair. Additionally (and in agreement with Empire_Service_(Amtrak),Lake_Shore_Limited and Maple_Leaf_(Amtrak/VIA)), the junction to those lines is north of Schenectady (and north of the Hudson River bridge), so I reordered them.
