replies: text: On 2 January 2009, IP editor 24.209.169.135 removed the unaccredited language, and footnote which quopted the National Qualifications Authority of Ireland: "The Authority notes the clear provisions of the Qualifications (Education and Training) Act 1999, which allow for the submission of programmes for validation to the two Awards Councils – the Further Education and Training Awards Council and the Higher Education and Training Awards Council. Thus, the Authority notes that Ireland is in a unique position in international terms in having State awards available for all provision of learning opportunities within the State and considers that no learning provider or non-statutory awarding body should feel excluded from working with the Awards Councils." National Qualifications Authority of Ireland.  No evidence of accreditation via the University of Wales has been presented. Certain degrees offered through the Irish Bible Institute are validated and awarded by the federal University of Wales, but the Irish Bible Institute is not accredited. --Bejnar (talk) 03:45, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Geodesic convexity

message: I realize that Riemannian metrics are not the same thing as distance metrics, but the definition of convexity here is almost the same as that in convex metric space (or rather, not the main definition there, but the related one mentioned in the article and used more explicitly e.g. in injective metric space that any pair of points can be connected by the isometric image of a line segment). Should there be a closer connection between these articles? Merge, maybe? Or rename this article geodesic metric space, discuss in it non-Riemannian as well as Riemannian metrics, clarify the difference between that and the notion of convexity discussed in convex metric space, and link articles that need this version of the concept, such as injective metric space, to here instead of there? —David Eppstein 17:09, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree wholeheartedly.  Having a page devoted to the property of "Geodesic convexity" rather than about "Spaces with convex geodesics" is the problem.  The argument in the "disputed" section below seems to be an artifact of trying to use a particular definition of convexity without having nailed down the space we're talking about (i.e. Riemannian manifold or length metric).

Talk:Ralfe Band

message: I came looking for extra information on the Ralfe Band, years active, releases etc but they didn't have a page. I believe Ralfe Band are noteworthy, they've been reviewed by NME, the late John Peel was a fan, they were personally selected to play Glastonbury by Emily Eavis, they've appeared on TV, and they play a song as an extra on The Mighty Boosh DVD.
Therefore, I believe they meet points 1, 4 and 5 of the musical notability guidelines.
:You have no sources to back up what you say. I can find nothing to verify any of this. Realkyhick 17:38, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Having said all that, I went and found some sources myself: a BBC interview and a review of Women of Japan. These should qualify as independent sources. Bear in mind for the future that the original author should be the one that provides sources such as these; the author shouldn't depend on others to do the legwork for him. If at least a few sources aren't provided at the beginning, the article faces possible deletion. I found these articles doing a simple Google search, by the way. Realkyhick 17:47, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

message: It seems to me that this principle is applicable more generally, possibly as a purely logical statement.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to think of how to go about researching it.  When Carl Sagan, challenging some possibly pseudo-scientific assertion, said "-Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof,-" I'm sure he wasn't leaning on ths as a legal principle (although I wouldn't be surprised if the polymath knew the Latin phrase incidentally).

Talk:Mike Bacsik (1970s pitcher)

message: This article has a couple problems. 1) The comment "Basically, Mike Bacsik just can't throw a baseball" (speaking about his son) is very POV and doesn't belong for that reason, if not others. 2) I don't think it is too notable that he pitched to Hank Aaron at 755. Aaron already had the record and didn't extend it againt him. It's only relevance is that his son gave up 755. Not that this wouldn't belong in a longer article as part of trivie, but this little tidbit that he failed to give up a homerun makes up half his page. Failureofafriend 03:23, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: He and his son are both "Mike Bacsik" but the elder Bacsik is "Michael James Bacsik" and the younger is "Michael Joseph Bacsik."

Talk:Single-point urban interchange

message: Reference 6 relates to a tight diamond interchange. Better to compare to a diverging diamond interchange that has only two phase signals. This then has 50% more capacity than a single point interchange because of fewer phases, and because of shorter clearance distances that waste time and cause blockages when combined with freeway ramp metering. It also has 50% fewer crashes. It follows that diverging diamond interchanges have more capacity and safety and it is hard to see where a single point interchange would have any advantage.

Talk:Harlem YMCA

message: The Harlem YMCA was founded (with money from Julius Rosenwald) at 181 135th street (as the "West 135th Street Branch"). Then later moved across the street to the current location at number 180 (as the "Harlem YMCA"). Both buildings are significant. 
After the Y moved across the street, the original building at 181 became the "Harlem annex", then the "Harlem YMCA Jackie Robinson Youth Center", and was landmarked in 2016. At some point the Abyssinian Baptist Church took possession of it (the 181 building), and it became run-down. The Harlem YMCA continues to operate at 180.
I'm afraid the article might be a little confusing as written? Maybe this needs to be re-written, or separated into two articles? There is one organization which over time occupied two buildings, I'm not sure how best to represent it.  - Kzirkel (talk) 19:09, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

message: Not sure if this is relevant, but I have subscribed to EW since at least 1993, and I've noticed that when Owen Gleiberman writes a movie review, there is a direct proportion between the attractiveness of the male lead and the poetry of his writing.  For example, he once described Chris O'Donnell (then playing d'Artagnan in The Three Musketeers) as having "the delicately curled lips of a baby angel."  In his review of Walk the Line, Gleiberman described Joaquin Phoenix's eyes as "deep coal wells of hidden sorrow."  --Procrastinatrix 18:43, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
