Talk:Meycauayan Church

message: * Split the article in two parts: one for the distinctive (or trivial) features of the church, and another for the history proper. Case in point (among others): the originally five (now three) bells is a regular staple of Meycauayan "history" accounts (usually reprints and copies of articles from previous years and reprinted on local publications) but essentially trivial in the light of how the history of the parish was discussed (it tends to distract from the flow of the narrative). The best approach is to separate these features---in my work with the Commission on Church cultural heritage, we found more things that deserve a separate section---without having to distract from how the parish developed and evolved over time.
* Compile a list of parish priests and assigned priests in the parish. 
* Compile a list of Meycauayan natives who later became priests. Worth noting are Archbishops Artemio Casas (now deceased, formerly Archbishop of Iloilo) and Leonardo Legaspi (Archbishop of Nueve Caceres in Bicol) and Bishop Deo Iniguez (now Bishop of Caloocan.

Talk:Ion-exchange resin

message: When used as an adjective, "ion-exchange" is hyphenated in the English language. I refer you to the writings of Isaac Asimov, Ph.D., chemistry, Columbia University, and many others. Asimov was a writer of a ton of science books, as well as a ton of science fiction.
Also, most such adjective phrases in English are hyphenated, and I will point out the following examples: anti-aircraft, bi-stable multivibrator, counter-clockwise, counter-revolutionary, dual-control airplane, multi-engine, neo-communist, radio-controlled, remote-contolled, zero-tolerance. I can think of a thousand more - but that would take time. 
Also, as time goes by, many of these from the past have evolved into compound words, such as radio-active -> radioactive.    —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.249.77.168 (talk) 00:24, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
