Talk:History of American football positions

message: While this is an interesting article (if a bit verbose), it does not appear to be only or specifically about football position names. Perhaps it should be renamed (moved to) the history of football position names or the evolution of football positions and terminology? Bonanzajellydog 16:59, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  DH 

message: This section is pretty good, in fact I'm going to copy some of it for the Rugby union positions article. However I'm not so sure that all of it is 100% accurate or at least not misleading.
Halfback - in the Northern Hemipshere, there are two halfbacks: scrumhalf and flyhalf (also known as outside half). AFAIK flyhalf is short for "flying halfback" and isn't connected to being "fly away" but related to the player taking the ball "on the fly" i.e. whilst in motion. In the Southern Hemisphere halfback refers only to the scrumhalf.
Three quarters backs - this is somewhat archaic and would only be used in the Northern Hemisphere, usually 3/4s backs are simply called centres (nothing like an American football "center") and wings (like a wide receiver). Wing three quarter and centre three quarter are virtually obsolete.
Five eighths - A purely Southern Hemisphere term for "flyhalf".
Another issue is that Quarterback argues that the term "Quarterback" is a Scottish term and rugby uses Anglo-Irish nomenclature. This is the opposite of this article which says that Quarterback is an Irish term and rugby uses Anglo-Scottish nomenclature. Anybody know which version is correct.GordyB 16:09, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Rugby

message: Hello, Rebestalic here.
I think the introduction slightly contradicts itself--first, it says that american football has "slowly evolved over time", and then it says that it has changed greatly. Shouldn't this be adhered to?
Thank you,
Rebestalic (talk) 06:19, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The two aren't mutually exclusive. Decade-by-decade, American football changed very little. The game was mostly the same in 1890 as it was in 1880, 1940 as it was in 1930, 1990 as it was in 1980, etc. But the 1869 New Jersey vs. Rutgers football game and Super Bowl LII would be nearly unrecognizable as being the same sport.

Talk:Shakespeare: The Animated Tales

message: I created this page, but I will not be able to work on it for the next few months. Here are a few hints for anyone who does want to expand the stub:
# See Shakespeare on screen, where I have listed all twelve episodes, their directors, and a few prominent voice actors. Copying that stuff across might be a start.
# The years of release on that page ARE NOT ALL CORRECT so don't rely on them. 
# IMDB doesn't have as much on this series as I'd expected.
# At one time, the relevant entries at Amazon.co.uk listed the animation technique used in each episode. I don't know if that's still true.
# I created "The Animated Shakespeare" with "Shakespeare: The Animated Tales" as a redirect. Strictly, the latter is the correct name, so the redirect should go the other way. AndyJones 17:03, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

The sentences are clumsily thrown together, the claims are not substantiated by any certain episode(s) in which this information might have been revealed, and the neutrality is questionable.

* "Gameplay" and "Critical reponse" are a little low on the ground
:P.N.03 is a pretty simple game, everything that needs to be covered is covered. Critical reaction is small because it was considered a pretty average game. If it was notable for being critical acclaimed or majorly panned, then it might need to be expanded, but as it is it doesn't benefit much from additional comments. Plus, WP:WIAGA only states such topics need to be covered, specifically stating that they do not have to be comprehensive. 
* No reference to strategy guide
:A strategy guide was not used in reference. Neither was the manual (as it is pathetic). Very few video game articles have been citing strategy guides as sources, the Pokemon articles are the exception.
* Low external links

message: The existing tangle of "how to use Wikipedia" articles gives the impression that, over a period of some time, a lot of people have come along and added their own little bit, but nobody has been managing the overall organisation. I think it's important that this guide does not become another addition in the same vein. I think that, if not already done, a thorough review of existing pages should take place. I think that this information should then be reorganised and reworked as necessary, and only then, as necessary, should new text be written. It's tempting to start writing a shiny new article rather than try to understand and improve what's there, but that may not be what is needed. Matt 12:06, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Top-down programming

message: This article has been vastly improved. I suggest that it is time to remove the 'Computer stubs' tag and perhaps to remove the cleanup tag. If anyone opposes these actions, please specifically request further changes. I hereby offer my help, but please consider that I am naturally a bottom-up type. Chris the speller 18:03, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Top-down programming was an early form of incremental development orginated by Harlan Mills.
It is an implementation technique, not a design technique.  It
involves building a early running version of a system that fullfills
part of the system requirements before the whole system is designed
in detail.  Unfinished parts of the system would have their interfaces
to the partially completed system defined as black boxes.  The
discovery (in the 1960's) that all computer programs could have
a hierarchial structure led Mills to discover that this black-box
technique was possible.
Mills was relatively flexible about the design process, but he thought
that top-down development (or programming) was essential to the
success in the development of production systems.
See "Structured Programming in a Production Environment" by FT Baker
See the introduction of Harlan Mills book "Software Productivity" for
a dicussion of the fact that his term "top-down" was misunderstood.
:This is not a very helpfull remark. I agree that the article is not completely accurate but it does focus on the implementation/programming part of the software development process. Also, I, and probably more, do not have the references you list; an excerpt would be helpfull.
:However, the article is not very encyclopedic. If nobody objects during a couple of weeks I suggest that the article is replaced by a redirect to Top-down and bottom-up design since it contains for the most part all relevant information. Frodet 19:20, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:UD Trucks Corporation

message: I googled quite a bit for this, but couldn't figure out if it was a separate company before joining up with Nissan.

thread_title:  Separate company, or Nissan-only brand? 

message: I reverted this text:
:: headquartered in Irving, Texas. established in 1985
Because this page explicitely says that "UD Trucks" started in 1972 in Miranda, New South Wales.  Also, both the Australia page, and the currently linked "homepage" both refer to Nissan as being something of a parent to UD Trucks, so they don't seem to be unrelated.  I'm not sure which one is the most accurate here, but with what little data has been brought up so far, it doesn't seem like 1985 is the right date.  If you have some information to clear this up, please post it.  --Interiot 06:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reverted text 

message: UD is never a wholly owned company of Nissan.  Before the 60s, it was totally unrelated to Nissan, and known as Minsei Diesel.  In mid 60s, Nissan bought some shares of Minsei and the name changed to "Nissan Diesel", but it is still a separate company, and with its own logo and dealer system.  So it is really unreasonable to call "Nissan Diesel" trucks as "Nissan" trucks.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Buhin (talk • contribs).
