Talk:Garðaríki

message: Why is the name in Icelandic mentioned? Icelandic is NOT the same as Old Norse although it's descended from it. The  Swedish name is also quite irrelevant since the Varangians language differed a lot from contemporary Swedish.Aaker 22:22, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, Icelandic is a dialect of Old Norse. In fact, modern Icelandic is closer to Old Norse than modern Norwegian. By contempory Swedish do you mean modern Swedish? The Varangians at the time were mostly Swedish.  --Grimhelm 22:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, Icelandic is derived from and still close to Old Norse but it is not considered to be the same language. By contemporary Swedish i mean what we in Sweden call "Nusvenska", i.e modern Swedish. The Varangians came predominantly from the eastern parts of the Scaninavian peninsula, which nowadays belongs to Sweden, but in those days no Swedish state or nation existed so it would be quite incorrect to call them Swedish.Aaker 18:43, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sigh! Ethnic labels are always so controversial. I won't even get started here on the use of the word "Swedish" in English which is not identical to the use of the word "svensk" in Swedish.--Berig 08:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

message: who wrote this "article"? is the author driven by a panslavistic ideology or is he/she just inconscious? "Gardar contains the same root as Slavic gord ("town") and English garden. Garðr refers to a wall or fortification but came to primarily mean what it contained." complete chaos here (b.t.w where is that scientifically noted?) Scandinavian "garder/garda" means "armoured, guarded" and was (under different circumstances) also the root for gorad, t.i. "town", the so called slavic word. Also the english pendant is "guard" , not garden! (t.i. the guy standing in front of the fortress, not the fortress itself. so obviously there was a common scandinavian / GERMANIC root of the word, which was carried up to England (Anglo-Saxons - ever heard of?) and to the East. By GERMANIC tribes. Thank you.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.108.98.124 (talk) 20:41, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Talk:National Assembly of Vietnam

message: I would like to move this page to the new title National Assembly of Vietnam. First, the name "National Assembly of Vietnam" (or "of Viet Nam") is officially used by the Vietnamese Assembly (as shown in the logo and whatever official document), not just  "National Assembly" so the usage of the bracket structure doesn't make sense here. Besides that, I don't know if this is the wiki's standardized format or something but I also saw many pages using the tile "National Assembly of whatevernation" (for example the National Assembly of Pakistan), if it is possible then this page should also use the same structure National Assembly of Vietnam.  Hwi.padam   23:10, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  meaning of critical band rate 

message: Saying that the critical band edges fall at 0, 100, 200, 300, etc Hz seems to imply that the frequency spectrum is partitioned precisely by those frequencies into non-overlapping regions.  But the explanation at critical band implies rather that at any frequency, there are sounds at both higher and lower pitch that the initial pitch will mask.  If that is so, what I think this article ought to be saying is that the critical bandwidth increases (non-linearly), and tabulating the bandwidth for a sequence of increasing initial pitches.  Unless the basilar membrane has a number of sharp discontinuities in its response curve, I don't see how it could possibly partition the spectrum in the manner indicated. yoyo 08:02, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  critical band edges 

message: In my textbook, Keith Johnson's Acoustic and Auditory Phonetics, the explanation of the Bark scale is much more detailed, describing the motivation for using the bark scale, relating it to the cochlea, and with tables showing its effects.  In fact, I don't think it even mentions the equation.  Believe it or not, 13*arctan is hard for most people to visualize.  This article needs figures and more explanation, and the equation should be deemphasized.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Depaderico (talk • contribs) 17:29, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Watching NHK's taiga drama Komyo ga Tsuji, episode 2, about 30 seconds into the episode... Kazutoyo was earlier referred to as Yamanouchi, as this article's name is saved under. However, , letters sent to his house five years after the Battle of Sekigahara were addressed to him as Yamauchi (やまうち), based on the hiragana characters on these letters. A sample letter showing the hiragana is shown below.
Historical document was studied by NHK. NHK is very reputable when it comes to research of historical events pertaining to Japan.

message: Rather than get into an edit war here that'll only repeat the Davidic line's, the assertions here that Gonzales and the BUPC both prove/illustrate/demonstrate an ancestral line, etc., etc., are already covered there.

It's difficult to illustrate here, so this current edit is for illustration only.

message: Jeffmichaud, you keep saying that they believe that the Guardianship must continue after Shoghi Effendi. Well so do all the Baha'is. What differentiates them is that they believe Mason Remey was appointed and that there must always be living Guardians. I tried to make that clear and you reverted back. 
I also reverted your change from Baha'i Faith to "mainstream group". As mentioned several times on several pages, the term "Baha'i Faith" is the appropriate designation for that group. Cuñado  - Talk 02:25, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

message: There are two possible reasons for the name given on this page -- one that this is one of two mountain ranges that runs north-south and the other to do with sunsets seen by early Queenstown settlers. 
Neither of these sounds plausible to me. Many mountain ranges run north-south (Andes, Rockies, Appalachian, Sierra Nevada etc etc) and because the Remarkables are east of Queenstown, settlers there would have seen the sun rising over the mountains, not setting.

message: The article does not mention that the mountains were used as filming location for multiple scenes in the Lord of the Rings movies. This seems like it warrants inclusion, based on the continued prominence of the association in regional tourism, mention in multiple guide books, and other indicators of notability. These may be enough to warrant a distinct section, rather than an "in popular culture" notation -- particularly if there are not enough other usages in popular culture to populate that type of section.
