Talk:Wrapped Around Your Finger

message: "Staring at the ring around you finger" and "I have only come here seeking knowledge, the kind they would not teach me of in college" tend to make me think that this is about the singer's sexual apprenticeship with a married woman. The turning of her face to alabaster, seems to lend itself to the theory that he has gotten what he wanted from her and now the "servant is your master." In a complex relationship with a married woman it seems like through some sort of potential threats or intimidation to reveal the relationship he has gained control of her. Someone please let me know if after listening to the song any different interpretations can be made.WesUGAdawg (talk) 21:42, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Meaning 

message: I am curious if this song was influenced by neo-classical musician Andreas Vollenweider's albums that had been released prior to recording.  There is a very strong similarity in the verse style and especially the synthesizer work.  However in 1983-1984 Vollenweider was not very popular so this wouldn't have been mentioned in interviews.
In any case the Andreas Vollenweider album Caverna Magica released in 1983 is great for anyone who likes the style of this song.

message: I have added a short section to comment on the neurophysiological/chemical mechanisms of a blackout at the molecular basis.  Mainly, I have provided a link to the Effects of alcohol on memory page that explains in more detail how alcohol disrupts memory at the molecular level.  Additionally, with that section (and the introductory sentence I have added) hopefully the "Other GABAA agonist drugs" section will be more coherent.

thread_title:  Name change? 

message: At the beginning, there is the sentence:
:Blacking out' is not to be confused with the mutually exclusive act of 'passing out', which means loss of consciousness.
I think it is highly deceptive to link the term "passing out [from excessive alcohol intake]" to fainting. The two conditions are highly different, despite the fact that both result in loss of consciousness. 
We should have a page for passing out from excessive alcohol intake.
I think it's right the way it is because a lot of people think that blacking out is the same as passing out.  It's not saying that blacking out from alcohol consumption is the same as passing out from drinking too much, it's saying that blacking out from drinking is different from passing out for whatever reason you may pass out since passing out means a loss of consciousness and blacking out is actually a loss of the ability to form new memories during the time of intoxication hence why a person who is blacked out can still act fairly normal other than the fact they are extremely intoxicated.  Least that's the way I read it.  Though I agree the link to fainting shouldn't be there.  it should be a link to a page about passing out for whatever reasons.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mchaggis79 (talk • contribs) 20:05, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Higgs prime

message: The current definition seems inconsistent about whether Higgs primes are only defined for squares. I think the algebraic form is unnecessarily complicated and unclear. The name Hp_n seems unfortunate because it can be read as H*p_n, and why say \phi(Hp_n) instead of just Hp_n-1. And \pi(Hp_n) > \pi(Hp_{n-1}) is apparently only used to indicate that Hp_n is the nth Higgs prime.
I don't know how the listed references formulate the definition, but I suggest this:
In number theory, for a given positive integer exponent a, a Higgs prime is a prime number p for which p − 1 divides the ath power of the product of the smaller Higgs primes (equivalently, all prime factors of p − 1 are Higgs primes, and no prime factor has multiplicity larger than a). Sometimes a = 2 is assumed. PrimeHunter 15:35, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The needlessness of invoking the prime counting function was also mentioned at PlanetMath, and I simplified it there as now I do here. But this is Wikipedia and not PlanetMath, and if after reading the listed references you're confident that your rewording is better, go ahead and reword it. You don't have to get my permission.

Talk:Serbo-Croatian kinship

message: This article is a dog's breakfast. It confuses and mixes up the colloquial and literary terms, the obselete and current terms and the terms used in the 4 literary standards.
For example, the annotation states that "bijela pčela" seems to imply that this term is used by Croatians. While in all probability it was used by Serbs, in the form "бела пчела" and is more thank likely obsolete.
Terms such as nono, dida and did are all Croatian dialectal forms for the literary word "djed". There is no point or sense in enumerating oall the dialectal and colloquial forms. It's a bit like saying English has all these various terms for "grandfather": "Gramps, Pop, Grandpa, Grampa, Grampy, Opa..."
Finally, "dedin ili babin unuk iz prvog braka babinom drugom" should be removed, as they do not represent any kinship term, but they are merely a description.
This article in its current form only causes confusion to English speakers - remember this is the English language Wikipedia. More work is needed to explain usage of the terms, and to disambiguate the terms.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.149.192.135 (talk) 05:57, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
