thread_title:  Merge 

message: Here's what I find in the citations in the articles:
*Andrews & Franzen 1984: I believe they say both species should be considered as G. freybergi. Hard to tell since I can't read the whole book. I'll try again after I check the other sources.
*Else & Lee 1986: Introduces Ouranopithecus as a new genus, so of course it is distinct from Graecopithecus.
*Hartwig 2002: G. freybegi is distinct and in its own genus.
*Cameron 2004: Says genus should be Graecopithecus, but two distinct species.
*Smith & Martin et al 2004: Treats O. macedoniensis as a synonym for G. freybergi.
*Koufos & Bonis 2009: G. freybergi is monotypic.
*Casanovas-Vilar (undated, but cites a 2010 article): O. macedoniensis and G. freybergi are distinct species and in different genera. It also notes that there's at least one and possibly two other species in Ouranopithecus: O. turkae.
Looks like the majority (overwhelmingly) says two genera and two species. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:25, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Issue with tone of article

message: Why shouldn't magical formula be confused with magic word? (which is not to be confused with WP:MAGICWORD)
Should magical formula be confused with WP:MAGICWORD in a sense? Perhaps WP:MAGICWORDs are examples.
This and neighboring articles need determination where it is appropriate to link magic spell or incantation (where the "charm" disambig and "enchantment" redirect also lead).
Meanwhile, should magic spell be confused with incantation? Reading our articles it's easy to do. The incantation article seems to say that that is a spell in words, but the spell article seems to presume words so that all spells are incantations along those lines.
Our pages spellcasting and spellcaster do not help here so I replaced them, now in lead parentheses. --P64 (talk) 23:16, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

message: Found a recent photo on Photobucket.com while doing an image search for Peruvian artillery which shows a Peruvian army MAN 6x6 truck towing a 155mm OB de 155mm BF Mle. 1950. It is unclear when Peru took delivery of these weapons, but it seems that France (or Sweden or Israel???) sold a few (12?) surplus retired ones to them over the last several years. It would seem that France also delivered a battery or two of these howitzers to Senegal, perhaps during the 1990s. Here on Wikipedia the ORBAT listed for the modern Peruvian army says that they have 12 "SOFAM" (sic.) 155mm howitzers, which could only logically be either the 155mm Mk. F-3 SPH or the mle. 1950.

replies: text: Hello, Mmariealysee. I will reply to your questions by bullet point: 
* Your attestment is of no value per wp:verifiability. I know, you may ask "why is my attestment of no value"? Okay, watch this: "As a former teacher, I can attest that at The Williams School, they salute the flag of Moldova every morning.". As you can see, there is no way anyone can challenge this... so citations are needed. Right now, I could blank the entire page and it wouldn't be against the rules as there are no citations. 
* The page has zero citations, all that you added was the school's website, which is not impartial. It isn't a neutral article... can you name a single negative or controvertial aspect of the school in the piece? 
* In terms of tone, it does read a little like an advertisement. 
* While some of the tense errors were corrected, there is a lot of editing yet to be done to clean up the article. Most of the "Academics" section needs to be pruned per Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools/Article_guidelines. In particular the "Relationship with Connecticut College" section is not written like an encyclopedic entry. There are quite a few things like "Physical Education classes are offered to Middle Schoolers only. All middle schoolers must take gym." -- in a word, not well written.

message: By having an exhaust port at the end of the stroke, piston uniflow design needs to recompress residual gas, with some reversibility losses. Furthermore, the recompression pressure makes a substantial restriction to the initial steam flow into the chamber, while the truncated stroke near BDC (bottom dead center) shorten the expansion cycle. New engine concept like the Quasiturbine rotary design allows uniflow, without any of these concerns.
