text: Support  Here is a link to the previous discussion.  It looks like one guy wrote oppose, but agreed with the name change (I think he was confused about what the vote was about).  Also, as you mention, MOS:ACROTITLE wasn't a thing back then.  Also, a quick search in Google Scholar even seems to agree that most academic literature appears to use the word HVAC, and news articles use the word HVAC as well.

thread_title:  Requested move 3 July 2023 

message: Heating Ventilating Air Conditioning is the proper compound for HVAC. The "V" being Ventilating not Ventilation. This is not semantics. This should be obvious to a Mechanical engineer with a minor in linguistics. For the rest of us, we can look at the history of the creation of the acronym. As any HVAC professional would know, The American Society of Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and their lineage is what shaped the entire industry. Their history starts with the American Society Of Heating and Ventilating Engineers (ASHVE) in 1895.  The ASHVE changed to HSH&VE then the ASHAE ( American Society of Heating and Air Conditioning Engineers). ASHRAE Was formed in 1959 by the merger of ASHAE and American Society of Refrigerating Engineers (ASRE) founded in 1904. The ASHRAE handbook origin first published in 1922 by the ASH&VE as the Heating and ventilating guide. Today ASHRAE publishes this as Principles of Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning Ninth Edition and Describes it as key HVAC fundamentals. All the information I have provided here. Except the first four sentences comes from articles found on the ASHRAE web site, This in itself gives this credibility. Also note in every case "V" stands for ventilating.

Talk:Wikia, Inc.

message: 3Apes redirects here, with no explanation in the article of the link. Looking at 3Apes, it says that "Wikia will replace 3apes on or about March 1st. All the work you do here until then will be imported at that time. Please Go look around over there and send feedback to me on the 3apes mailing list."
Unfortunately, it doesn't even state the year, so I'm left assuming it refers to 2006, but can't be sure. Meanwhile, looking at wikia itself doesn't provide any further hints, just links to wikicities, kennisnet, memory alpha and uncyclopedia, which appear to be projects within the wikia fold. How 3Apes fits into this is not clear.
Perhaps someone who knows could pad out this article? Jamse 16:07, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikia no longer replaces 3Apes. There was a suggestion Wikia would be a search directory, but it turned into a wiki hosting company instead, so 3Apes is irrelevant to it. Perhaps the redirect should be deleted. Angela. 05:40, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Champlain sea

message: It is estimated that the sea was as much as 150 meters above the level of today's Saint Lawrence and Ottawa Rivers. Shouldn't this read Former marine shorelines have been identified at locations that are now as much as 150 meters above the level of today's Saint Lawrence and Ottawa Rivers. For the text as-is to be true, sea levels worldwide would have had to have been that much higher.

Wikipedia talk:Latter Day Saint Collaboration of the fortnight

message: Is it possible that the collaboration is for an unspecified period rather than a fortnight?  If so should it be renamed?  I don't mind having an article as the collaboration article, it just seems that there is no progression.
May I suggest that you move this page to be written with a hyphen?  The only church that still uses this name writes it "Latter-day Saint".  Ksnow 08:32, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah these don't do much. I don't think changing the amount of time is going to make people more active, though. If I remember right, the church in Voree is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, without the hyphen. Also, this collaboration covers the entirety of the Latter Day Saint movement, not just the Utah church. Cookiecaper 14:53, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Now that the push for featuring Joseph Smith's article is over, and was a rousing success, how about collaborating again?  This function/idea seems to be one of the LDS project groups weakest, and has had limited results during my time here.  I personally have tried to contribute to the articles as they are chosen, but I admit not having added anything to Helaman.  
So, would it be better to have a quarterly project?  Or several projects in various areas (biographies, doctrine, history) going at the same time.  Or should we look for problem articles needing work and make the collaboration an improvement project.  (For example, the Mormon Battalion article has been tagged for improvement and could use a real reorganization.  There are plenty of print sources for this one.)  Comments please.

Talk:Dougla people

message: This article is very biased, and the cited source describes a world which bears little resemblance to my first-hand experience (which would, of course, amount to personal research).  The cited source does not seem to be based on field research, and cites only a few modern sources.  In addition, the source blends Trinidad and Guyana in such a way that it is difficult to figure out which one she is talking about at several points.  At the same time, since it is based on a source, I suppose I need to find some alternative source material.  Guettarda 19:25, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: POV

message: Where is the bias? The research seems very adequate. The term and the people have been perceived differently as a matter of Historical fact and not just as a matter of personal opinion. <B>The fact is that people in Trinidad and Tobago have a hard time in accepting that the majority of them have mixed ancestry. Ethnicity is used in many cases merely as a performative act, a culturally specific form of technology cultivated by groups in order to gain resources of power.</B>  --Ishango 14:49, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

message: When I was a kid in the 1950s, I remember 'dougla' being used pejoratively occasionally, but mostly it was used just to state a fact, and the same could be said about the use of 'coolie', 'white', and so on.

thread_title: Another origin for some of the miscegenated.

message: AFAIK, growing up in Jamaica in the 80s and 90s "dougla" was not a term used in Jamaica because I clearly remember having it explained to me by a Trinidadian. Also I've never seen it used in Jamaican writing. For example in the Novelization of "The Harder they Come" the term used for a mixed black/Indian character is "coolie-royal" which is a bit old school now as you'd probably say "black-head indian" or "black-head coolie" (somewhat derogatory)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.90.74.7 (talk) 12:49, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Eric Clapton

message: The article states that Clapton "left the Yardbirds on the day that "For Your Love" went public". "Went public" is a little vague, but the single was released on 5 March 1965 in the UK according to the For Your Love page, while Clapton's departure is generally dated 13 March (https://www.guitarworld.com/artists/march-13-1965-eric-clapton-quits-yardbirds).
"Clapton left the Yardbirds shortly after "For Your Love" went public (or shortly after the single was released)" would be a more accurate statement according to the info I've seen. FatPie123 (talk) 15:27, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Eben-Emael

message: The link to http://www.portal-ns.com/thecensure/eben.htm is, in my opinion, far from NPOV. Apart from the fact that www.portal-ns.com is a national-socialist fan website, the article that is linked to only gives the German point of view and only in a biased way.
Sentences like these are clearly not NPOV:
* "Within seconds the parachutists had broken out of the craft and were standing, the first soldiers of the German Army, on Belgian soil. It was a glorious, sun filled dawn!"
* "Patrols in the galleries were now using hollowcharge grenades to bring down the ceilings and to cut off the defenders from their comrades in the other forts. Such patrols were not without danger, and one three man group, checking the upper level of galleries between Objectives 12 and 3, was tragically intercepted and destroyed by cowardly Belgian soldiers who had at first deceitfully surrendered to them."
* "If one includes the two glider loads of men who arrived late, the total of parachutists involved in the operation was 85. Six of these heroes fell in action, twenty more were wounded."

thread_title: Untitled

message: This article was linked from the Harry Price article. After reading the two articles, I concluded that this William Hope and the William Hope in the Price article are not the same person. The Hope mentioned in the Price article was exposed as a fraud by Price in the 1920s, based upon some of Hope's "spirit photography." I broke the link between the two articles. I hope I wasn't in error. If anyone happens to know that these two articles refer to one in the same man (the dates and other circumstances involved make it, to my mind, unlikely but not impossible) please restore the link in the Price article and place something in this Hope article that mentions Hope's interest in the occult. —CKA3KA (Skazka) 00:14, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
