replies: text: I noticed that too.  It looks like that sentence was copied from a news source.  I have changed "the bourse" to "it".  --DylanW 22:56, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Bourse is the British (Commonwealth) English (via French for a stock exchange, though it is usually used in reference to European exchanges. I left it when I did an editing pass because I'm accustomed to reading it, but perhaps it is too much of a term of art to be considered common. It is listed in Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, though... HTH, Jim_Lockhart 11:44, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That Merriam-Webster Unabridged link doesn't work for people who are not subscribed members.  This Merriam-Webster OnLine entry says "EXCHANGE 5a; specifically : a European stock exchange" (like you mentioned above), so it's probably best not used for this article. --DylanW 22:15, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

text: No problem. But if it's good enough for the Financial Times (which is cited several times as a source), it's good enough for me... I would leave it, if not just to motivate those who don't know it to look it up. Some people come to Wikipedia to pick up on field-specific word usage, and bourse is a word people interested in exchanges and related subjects should know. HTH, Jim_Lockhart 23:42, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I mostly agree with you.  I wouldn't object to putting it back, although I wouldn't do it myself because like you and Merriam-Webster said, it is usually used in reference to European exchanges, and this article of course is talking about the Japanese exchange. --DylanW 03:37, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

message: To me, there's a slight semantic difference between these two words. Offloading better describes what happened in Tokyo last week because investors—particularly day traders and individual investors—were selling the shares in a panic to get rid of them. Herd mentality played a part, but (this is my opinion here) Japanese investors were reading the wind and trying to get rid of livedoor shares before they became worthless, something they were worried about because they sense that the raids and media bashing are politically motivated. In any case, to me, unloading shares is something people (such as insiders) do quietly when they know bad news is in the offing; whereas offloading is something they do to get rid of shares quickly. Any thoughts? Jim_Lockhart 02:02, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know enough about the difference between the two words in this context.  To me, "unload" gives the impression of dumping.  What do other people think? --DylanW 03:53, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, thanks for getting back.  Marriam-Webster says they're synonymous too, so either way is fine with me. --DylanW 19:13, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Offload vs Unload

message: As of today, liverdoor is still a viable business (i.e., it has not "failed" in the usual sense of the word), and it does not necessarily fulfill the other definitions mentioned in the definition at List of notable business failures. It is, in fact, viable enough a company that the owner of Usen has put up his own money to buy a large stake. (This and several other events have not be added to the article.)

message: How reliable would news.livedoor.com be as a source? Is it still basically just a blog? Any editors? I noticed that this article from comicbook.com (no idea if that is a good source either) cited this tweet which used this article as a source, but not sure how much stock to put in its details.

message: Under the "Sale" section, the offer price and sale price are listed in billions of Dollars and billions of Yen, respectively. This is a little misleading, and one or the other should be converted to maintain consistency. Dollar value makes sense on the English page, but it was a Japanese company, and the deal was likely made in Yen, so either are valid, but having both is confusing. 192.77.12.11 (talk) 08:18, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
