Talk:Ones (Enneagram of Personality)

message: These type descriptions are unoriginal summaries of descriptions and theories already published by one particular school of Enneagram thought.  They also seem to have been possibly written by a member or follower of that school for some sort of promotional purpose. 
A number of aspects of these descriptions and theories do not have  universal acceptance by Enneagram teachers.  In my opinion these   pages need to be heavily edited in order to present a more neutral understanding of the Enneagram personality types. Ontologicos 15:55, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Reply: What format would you suggest as being suitable for NPOV? from Mullah_Nasreddin
Thanks for responding.  Almost anything would be an improvement on the current profiles which are only summaries of the writings from  one particular school of Enneagram theory - and one that has aggressively promoted a number of arguably idiosyncratic theories about the Enneagram of Pesonality that haven't received general acceptance and probably never will.  It seems to me that the profiles cannot be edited for NPOV without deleting most of what's already there since these are enclyclopedia articles that are meant to present some sort of general consensus on things.

text: Since I'm not the author of the page(s), I can only offer my opinion:Edit the pages for NPOV, and let the author edit them back, until you have some version acceptable to both. from Mullah_Nasreddin 07:38, 25th May 2007 (UTC)

I added an infobox last night (see sidebar) that was reverted by Ontologicos because of POV issues.  Ontologicos is right to say that.  It is certainly incomplete, but I really like infoboxes so I thought it would be a halfway-decent starting point.  After reading this discussion page and thinking a bit, I agree the articles on each type are incomplete and need a significant amount of work.  I also think that might mean mostly starting over by an expert and slowly drawing from various sources as the nine articles are re-written.  This is not much help, as I am mostly saying "we need an expert to start over, and it isn't me", but does anyone think we could work on a more neutral/complete infobox template as a starting point?Schaber (talk) 22:09, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Poier's Adjustable Knot

message: Apparently this article is intended to discuss a specific knot used for attaching balls (or other weights) to the ends of cords for a Māori form of juggling called Poi.  For this article to avoid deletion, it seems to me that several significant pieces of information are needed about this knot:
1. Is this knot actually distinct from better known adjustable knots, or it it simply a alternate name for a well-known knot?
:* A proper description of the knot needs to be given
:* And, better yet, a detailed image of the knot is needed
2. A reliable source needs to be cited linking this knot to the construction of poi.
3. Is this one knot used widely by poi practitioners, or is it merely one of many functionally equivalent knots that are used to make poi.

thread_title:  equilateral page 

message: I removed this from the opening:
: Similarly, an equilateral polyhedron is a polyhedron with all sides of the same length.
If this is a real classification, it ought to say all sides of the same length (otherwise sides ought to mean faces), but I've never seen it used, or any references. Not even MathWorld has a definition!  Tom Ruen (talk) 18:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess you mean "it ought to say all edges of the same length". Please let's not use MathWorld as a primary source; it is known not to be always reliable (as well as Wikipedia). I checked on McGraw-Hill technical dictionary. You are right, the phrase "equilateral polyhedron" means something else: a polyhedron all of whose faces are identical.

Talk:Charles Hislop

message: I found this brochure which mentions that 
:The highlight of the exhibit was the refurbished Ruston Hornsby 9HRC diesel engine that was on display in the parking lot along with a pictorial of the evolution of generation. This unit was one of the first generators to supply electricity on the Island.
:In 1932, Ed and Charles Hislop purchased this Ruston 9HRC from Tampa and began the first public supply of electricity to George Town as well as an ice cream shop. The engine was first located on Harbour Drive near Hog Sty Bay and later moved to the corner of what is now Cardinal Avenue and Harbour Drive. It was later relocated to Shedden Road on the property of Mike's Ice. In 1943, Ed Hislop passed away leaving the "business" to his brother Charles who continued the operation until 1951.

Talk:Only You Can Save Mankind

message: This is a call to arms to make the Terry Pratchett article a Featured Article. It will greatly help the cause if all the side articles that link from it are of a reasonable standard. Terry Pratchett has around 40 side articles (ie the ones relating to his work) - I don't think they are all expected to be GA (Good Article) standard for TP to become featured, but certain basic elements will be looked at for sure. 
A full list of the sub articles is here on the TP talk page: I'm posting this comment on the talk pages of each article on the list. Editors reading may also like to help with the TP article too? 
The main issue, especially with smaller articles, is often a finding reasonable amount of citations, and prose can sometimes be a little  POV too. Coverage of the topic is probably less important, but of course it needs to be reasonably good. --Matt Lewis (talk) 15:11, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Follett Corporation

message: I created this page because I work in the book industry (NOT for Follett, but actually for one of their competetors), and I found it interesting that there is no page for this, as there is for many other large corporations.  It is certainly not a "blatent advertisment".  I had initially considered creating a stub simply stating Follett Corporation is an Illinois based company that provides a variety of book-related services to schools, colleges, and public libraries through its subsidiaries.  , but I decided to actually do some research and comprise a base for what could be a good article.  I see having a page for Follett no different from having pages for Barnes & Noble, Borders Group, Ingram_Book_Group, Foyles, etc. Tony P 16:22, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: (Spoiler alert!)
Having read the novel a few years ago, and just watched the BBC TV dramatisation, it strikes me that there is a glaring implausibility in the plot. To explain Lucas Romer's plot to have Eva killed, we are told that he was a double agent working for the Russians (the USSR), who wanted to keep the USA out of the war.  But is it credible that in 1941 (pre-Pearl Harbor) the USSR would want this?  Germany invaded the USSR in the summer of 1941 and made rapid progress.  In the later part of 1941 they were in desperate trouble.  The Russians could not have been confident of ultimately overcoming the Germans until late 1942 (Stalingrad). Surely in 1941 they would have been glad of any new allies they could get - even the Americans?109.145.56.131 (talk) 15:54, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Real name 

message: In the section "Ambon revolt of 1817" only the following is said about the background of the revolt: "He was appointed as Kapitan by the people of Saparua to rebel against the Dutch on 14 May 1817". But much more is known about the proximate causes of the revolt, and that information is narrated in a business-like manner in the source Van Zonneveld that is referenced in the section. The source is in Dutch, so not easily accessible for Anglophones. So I had Google Translate render the relevant text in English, and copy that here: 
The part about Pattimura's personal grievance is mentioned just above in the "Biography" section, but the causal link is not immediately obvious. I think this is not good historiography. I understand that Pattimura's status of national hero makes it difficult to relate aspects of his conduct that may diminish that status, but in current Dutch historiography that has become a matter of routine. People like Rear-Admiral Buyskes and Quirijn Maurits Rudolph Ver Huell are "cancelled" as a matter of course, despite the good things they may also have done. So let's not be too queasy. I am not going to do the edit myself. I leave that to the people who have done an otherwise good job with this article. Ereunetes (talk) 17:36, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
