Talk:Hanyang University

message: The infobox says that there are 2274 postgraduate students, but the history section says there are 7,600 graduate students.  Which figure is accurate? YooChung 00:17, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Number of graduate students 

message: Someone reverted all of the tagging I did on this page which pointed out problems, including all of the HTML comments I put in, but not all of the issues were addressed.  Problems that still remain are:
* "In the 1960s and 1970s, Hanyang University graduates, particularly those from the College of Engineering, led the way in Korea's national drive for industrialization and modernization." — "Lead the way" is obviously a biased statement.  It needs to be specific on what this means and written in a neutral manner.
* "In the 1990s, Hanyang University continued both research and the extensive training of fully qualified professionals." — Unless the university didn't do research or train professionals before the 1990s, this is a redundant statement whose purpose is seems to be putting the university in a positive light.
* Several sections do not use wiki markup.
* Links to the Korean and Chinese versions of the university website are easily available from the English version, so they're redundant.

Broken English is rightly as undesirable here as broken German should be in the German-language edition, etc. If a piece of text was obviously written by someone not at home in the language being used, then it is self-evidently an inexpert translation by that author of what they meant to say and the risk of errors which you abhor has already been run.

message: Article has "but then, first proposed by von Mädler himself, a new 128-year rule for additional common years. (The only odd thing in Mädler's proposal was, that neither the year 1900, nor 2028, 2156 etc. [=1900 +128 +128...] were themselves divisible by 128.) / But (according to von Mädler) if the years 3200, 6400, 9600, 12,800, 16,000 and so on are NOT leap years ... ".  Observe that, if the 128-year rule were applied to years divisible by 128, then 3200, etc., would already be common years.  The apparent duplicate effect would lead to confusion.  Perhaps the 128-year rule should apply to years which are an odd multiple of 64 - 1984, 2112, etc. 94.30.84.71 (talk) 14:43, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Osechi

message: I tried to wikify things, but for some choices used the most general link. Should the Kuro-mame (黒豆, Black soybeans) linked to Douchi instead of soybean? Should the Konbu (昆布, Seaweed) be linked to Nori instead of seaweed? BlankVerse ∅ 13:38, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Kuro-mame is a dark skinned variety of soybeans rather than douchi, which is fermented and salted soybeans. Kuro-mame is also stewed for a darker color so it can't link to douchi. Konbu and Nori are two distinct dish, as nori is a sheet of cooked seaweed, but konbu is cooked leaves of seaweed. These two actually use different species of seaweed. As a meatball is not the same food as a slice of roast beef, these two are different.--Revth 08:25, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Template talk:Liberal-party-stub

message: If you want to change the categorization of these stubs, it seems to be necesary to re-save all the articles wherein the template is included. So I reversed to the old system.

replies: text: You do have to do a null edit to all the stubs, that is true - that's the way templates work, and it is standard practice for Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting to make necessary changes and then start doing null edits.

replies: text: Painters in the old days generally prettied up their subjects. Also, although it isn't likely that his disease was scurvy (that isn't a congenital condition), the article says that he was "believed to' have scurvy - we aren't making a medical diagnosis, we're simply repeating what reliable third parties say. There are so many congenital conditions (and not all hereditary - cerebral palsy and amniotic bands come to mind as non-hereditary congenital conditions) that can cause some amount of disfigurement that there's no way to know. --NellieBly (talk) 00:31, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Kvarner Gulf

Also note that whichever we pick in the end, the choice needs to be followed by an update of the numerous redirects, cf. Special:Whatlinkshere/Kvarner Gulf. --Joy [shallot] 14:39, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: To be honest, I've never heard of it called "bay" before in English. Every English-language map I've seen has called it the "Kvarner Gulf" or "Gulf of Kvarner". I've also checked this with a number of encyclopedias and they all call it a gulf. I assume this is because the English version of the name is probably taken from the Italian Golfo del Quarnero. The "bay" name I guess is a literal translation of the Croatian word zaljev. -- ChrisO 22:01, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: "Family tree"

message: The image caption says "The Boston Elevated Railway was the world's first street railway system to use articulated streetcars."
Does anyone have a source citation for that? 
This https://villamosok.hu/nza/beng-kulf/index_en.html appears to support the "world's first" but only with regard to large-scale revenue service. 
The 1893 Cleveland "experimental tram" would appear to be the "world's first" when not accounting for regular revenue service.

Talk:Crown corporation

message: I am dubious that the term "crown corporation" has much legal basis. I think it is a popular term for a government body. Might be wise to check the Financial Administration Act and various other acts at the Dept of Justice website to see if all of the federal bodies listed are really crown corporations or just "agencies" of the Government of Canada. The Agency is now a popular instrument of public policy, whereas the crown corporation has fallen out of favour.--BrentS 15:41, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Here is the link to the act.  You'll find some, but not all Crown Corporations named, since they're often named elsewhere (which this act allows).  A complete list of official Crown Corporations is here, which validates this article.  I suggest there is immense "legal basis" for the term "Crown Corporation" for all those listed federally, and more.  --rob 06:30, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

message: Before I touched it, this whole article was already exclusively about Canadian Crown corporations.  Ideally it would be named "Canadian Crown Corporations", but I didn't make that change, since there seems to be many side effects of such a change, given the number of inbound links.  I couldn't de-Canadianize it, since it was 99% Canadian already.  So, I stated at the start of the article, it is about Canada.  I welcome suggestions, or for others to do a more appropriate change.  I'm really surprised there doesn't seem to be any state run corporation article.  Maybe I just can't guess the correct term.  --rob 06:03, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I suggest renaming this article to Appenzell (history) and rely on the related articles Appenzell (town), Appenzell (district) and Appenzell Innerrhoden to provide more general information. 
Although this article is predominantly based on the 1911 Encyclopedia Brittanica, there only needs to be work to fill the gap from then until present to make a complete article.

message: The article as a whole says that Appenzell was a canton until 1597, when it was divided into two half-cantons. I would guess that two half-cantons constitute one canton; though maybe a "half-canton" is regarded as a kind of canton. The overall impression I get is that Appenzell is still a canton. But the first paragraph carefully avoids saying that Appenzell is a canton. I wish the article were clearer on this. I can't clarify it myself, because I don't know the answer.

thread_title:  Is Appenzell a canton? 

message: This entire article needs additional footnotes, but there is some info that looks particularly questionable. The sentence in question is this: The problem is this: Herisau's population was over 97% Protestant in 1850. While I know things can change in 300 years, it is hard for me to see Herisau switching denominations. There is no evidence that it ever was Roman Catholic after the Reformation. Also, Gais definitely is protestant, but that is obvious: it is a member of the Protestant Ausserrhoden, not Innerrhoden. Again, I don't see how Gais switched from Inner to Outer Appenzell.

message: In many Ohio villages and cities, when land is annexed in neighboring townships, that land ceases to be a part of the township as it becomes a part of the annexing municipality.
