thread_title: Further questions

message: This story is excellent except for the last sentence.  What is a false positive in the context of persistent vandalism? 1of3 21:41, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not talking about "persistent" vandalism, it's talking about any vandalism. With this much data, the study has to apply mechanical tests to identify what it thinks is vandalism, which in this case is largely based on edits that got reverted. Since the test has no human input, it can pull in cases that upon further review do not actually involve vandalism, which are the false positives. --Michael Snow 21:58, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: But it is talking about persistent vandalism, saying that most of what the program flagged as vandalism which persisted for more than 100,000 page views was actually not vandalism.--ragesoss 22:01, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Right, of course, sorry I was thinking the question involved "persistent" vandalism in the sense of repeated action (even though the story itself talks about persisting cases). Anyway, the explanation of what is a false positive is still applicable. --Michael Snow 22:13, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Eidelon

message: I have reviewed the article Eidelon (Farscape) and found it to be:
* Failing notability requirements of WP:FICTION as it contains no assertion of notability, analysis or context;
* Has no independent sources which can be verified;
* The article itself is primarily focused on plot summary which make up its content.
In your edit summary, you stated that a "merge of some kind would be preferable". If you believe this case, please:
* Effect merger of the page with another; or
* Propose a merger with another page. To this end, I would suggest you select one of the templates under the :Category:Merge templates and attach it to the top of the article.
In the meantime, could I ask when you will be actually undertaking either the merger or proposed merger which you are proposing?  Also posted on User talk:PC78. --Gavin Collins 23:08, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Alexia Massalin

message: Though it doesn't specifically say in the article that Alexia is transgender, it is implied by the change of name, and that pronouns switch from "he" to "she" between the 1996/1998 articles in the references.

Just that I was recently trying to find this page, but couldn't remember Alexia's name, and was puzzled that I couldn't find the page from Category: Transgender and transsexual scientists.

Talk:Regency romance

message: I don't think that Barbara Cartland's books really count as Regency romances - my belief is that while she wrote very many romances, they are mostly set in the 20th century...  but I could be wrong so I haven't changed the page.
I think, but am not sure, that another author who does do regency romances would be Jane Aitken Hodge - who also wrote the biography of G. Heyer. "The Private World of Goergette Heyer".
: I would agree about Barbara Cartland since her novels are all over the timespan. She was however widely read in her day.  Jane Aiken Hodge wrote The Private World of Georgette Heyer (1984, out of print).  
:Some Regency authors today refer to Jane Austen or Georgette Heyer as their inspiration; however, not all mention either!  Among the best-known living Regency authors still writing about the Regency period today (some who have moved on to other genres are omitted) are
:# Mary Balogh who now writes Regency historicals
:# Eloisa James who writes Regency historicals
:# Stephanie James who now writes Regency historicals
:# Julia Quinn who writes Regency historicals
: The difference between Regency romances and Regency historicals is best explained by sites such as Good Ton: A resource for readers of Regencies and All About Romance: A Reader on Regencies by Karen Wheless

message: This article is problematic.  It is an example of why one should be careful to post stories of companies.  
This story only convers a portion of the scope of Lincoln Industrial.  It fundamentally covers only part of the history of only the St Louis-based portion of a much larger company.  As such there is more history omitted than history reported.  Further, the story is out of date.  More or less, the story ends in the mid-50's.  Much has happened since.  A reference like this would need at least annual updating by someone willing to do the work.  
Finally, the references are not fitting(in my opinion)to Wikipedia standards because they are almost exclusively non-public.  Public references are available, but someone has to do the work to research them and provide reference tracks.
My suggestion is to withdraw this article, or at a minimum, retitle it to fit the scope and content of the story.
