Talk:Richardson's ground squirrel

message: Back in January 2005, user:Big Iron added the following:
:"Farmers and ranchers have developed some ingenious ways of exterminating the gopher from their land in additon to normal shooting and poisoning. One enterprising farmer recently used a large sewage vacuum truck with which he sucked the beasts up out of their dens and into the tank.	Another, more unfeeling person, used propane. He built a propane supply pipe with an electical sparker at the end. He would poke the pipe into a hole, exhaust some propane into the den and then hit the spark, with the expected results. In the end, the procreative drives in the gophers always win out."
There are lots of small animals that get called gophers (see Geomyidae).  Do we know that the victims of these extreme measures were indeed Spermophilus richardsonii?  seglea 20:09, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Expedition

message: I tried to do some cleanup on the page as per the Wikipedia Manual of Style for disambiguation pages. I also greatly expanded it. I almost always give descriptions for every item on a disambiguation page, but I am ambivalent about the International Space Station expeditions. If you want to add descriptions for them, go for it. 
I strongly recommend that additional expeditions not be added to the list of military and exploratory expeditions, unless they are referred to by a name that has "expedition" in it. For the articles without "expedition" in the Wikipedia article name, I have listed the name that does have the term in parentheses. The alternative names I listed come from redirects or the article itself. 
Please feel free to remove or correct anything that you feel is improperly listed anywhere on the disambiguation page. It is helpful if you note the reason in the edit summary or on this talk page, though. Also, if you want to contact me for some reason, please use my user talk page. -- Kjkolb (talk) 00:22, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Wilhelm Schickard

message: This statement seems vague and somewhat POV to me, for several reasons:
* Is there any specific historical delineation of "the computing era"? I doubt that there is, other than perhaps the circular one of saying that it started with Schickard.
* If there is such a thing as "the computing era", there is almost certainly no one figure who can be called its "father". Unless there is evidence of a clear and direct line of influence from Schickard's machine to present-day computing devices, and unless this line of influence is stronger than that from, say, Pascal, Leibniz, or Babbage, calling Schickard "the father of the computing era" seems unfounded.
* Calling Schickard "one of the most remarkable figures in computing history" seems subjective and also useless.
I agree. It seems NPOV, especially that he is 'one of the most remarkable'. --Ben davison 13:40, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: HEAT?

message: How does the page look, not all pages display the same way for all users, , but at a pretty standard resolution on a 17" monitor, I get a great chunk of whitespace to the left of the infobox, the position of the the wiki markup for the picture above the line "The FNC is a select-fire automatic firearm that uses a gas-driven piston operating principle" forces all text that comes afterwards the markup to appear after the infobox, making an awkward looking page. I'll have a look at it on some other computers first, to see how it appears on different monitors and at different resolutions. But if anyone else gets this problem, repositioning the picture, or even the creation moving it into a gallery section could be considered.

message: "Sasha passed the entrance exam for Hatfield College at age 17. However, he did not like Epsom and left before completing his A-Level examinations."
Problems: The source doesn't mention Hatfield College or Epsom: it says he moved to Maidenhead age 11 and back to Wales age 17. There is no Hatfield College in Epsom. There was a "Hatfield Technical College"/"Hatfield College of Technology" until 1969 at Hatfield in Hertfordshire, a long way from either Epsom or Maidenhead, and Hatfield College, Durham is part of the university.
So this couple of sentences doesn't really make any sense as far as I can see. PamD 15:15, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

message: I see another editor has added these sections (back) into the article, but I'm not sure they're appropriate here (or I would have included them). The page has been redefined to focus on the use of the TERM or THEME of  "integral" in SPIRITUAL movements, right? Art is not spirituality. Psychology is not spirituality. If there is a separate page warranted, then it would be a top-level page for each of these--and, in fact, there is. I would remove them and be sure that they are linked on "Related pages", lest the page begin to swell into another hodgepodge that contains extra-spiritual content. Other opinions?
