thread_title:  Using this to store material to incorporate later... 

message: This is an opera, and should be categorized as such. It is published as an opera in Stein's Last Operas and Plays, is commonly referred to as an opera in all the critical literature (see article for a start), and I remind you of the Oxford English Dictionary definition of the word 'opera':
:"opera: a dramatic musical work in one or more acts, in which singing forms an essential part [...]; a libretto or musical score for such a work."

replies: text: Did Stein compose music? If not, then she didn't write operas. If she only wrote the words she was a librettist. It's a simple, universally accepted distinction. -- Kleinzach 17:13, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Two have been mentioned in the discussion triggered by the question as to libretto or opera: Meyer Kupferman (1956); David Ahlstrom (1980).

replies: text: Thank you for the mention of David Ahlstrom's setting.  I am one of three people who share the rights to the late Dr Ahlstrom's music, and can give anyone who is interested a little bit of of information about it, including a fairly recent performance at San Francisco City College.  However, I don't know whether any of this is documented, online or elsewhere (whether there are reviews, for example), so I don't know whether it will be of any use on Wikipedia.

Reading through some guidebooks and the traveladvisor.com website, as well as finding a photo on the cover of a book at Amazon on Loughcrew, the location appears to be much further South and West.  As such, I think the coordinates should be adjusted, although someone knowledgeable might want to check this.

message: I received a letter from them saying that they were putting the price of subscription next year, shortly after they had taken a direct debit from my bank account. I want to write to them saying I want to cancel my subscription, but there is no address given either anywhere on the letter they sent me or anywhere on their website, not on the contact page or anywhere else. A web search has not found it either. The address on the back of the envelope is apparently merely for a bulk-mailing company. This seems to me to be an indication of dodgy dealing and bad customer service. Update: in the small print in the magazine itself it says "Invesstors Chronicle Subscriptions, PO Box 326, Sittingbourne, Kent, ME9 8FA". Another update: the latest copy of the magazine says subscribers should contact "Investors Chronicle Subscriptions at Investors Chronicle, Tower House, Sovereign Park, Lathkill Street, Market Harborough, Leistershire LE16 9EF." This is the same address as "CDS Global", a company that does "business process outsourcing". So they've re-arranged the deck-chairs. 92.3.52.248 (talk) 14:12, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

Embolization is a general term describing debris flowing downstream in a blood vessel.  In addition to a radiological procedure, it is also a complication of surgery, and a general process causing things like blue toe syndrome and Air embolism and fat embolism
The intro needs to reflect these.

message: I wikified the link to Esophageal_varices, and added following "warning" in parentheses for the aid of those who may have sensitive stomachs (perhaps a pun is intended):
:"warning, endoscopic image of an esophagus may be disturbing to some"
Is this in any way inappropriate - i.e. does it constitute some kind of "censorship"?  After all, it does not actually "censor" anything - just alerting people to an image they might personally find objectionable, and so might want to place a palm over the screen before they click?

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject True Origins/Reliable sources

message: I want to match this up very closely with the existing text and discussion at WP:RS, and at the RS Noticeboard. It will take a while. Anything we want to say that is different from there really has to be presented at WP:RS talk page for discussion. If we're just expanding, that's another matter. 
::And in fact I see one. primary sources here is used in the way scientists use it--and naturally, the way I've always taught it as a science librarian. But it is not the way  humanities people use it. Humanities people consider primary sources to be the material being studied, say a novel.  Articles in scholarly journals about a subject are considered secondary sources. In the discussion of humanities based topics, such as popular culture, the term is used the same way: the primary material is the video programs or whatever, and the use of this is disapproved. The secondary source are reviews, or discussions  about the material. (Now of course if you are studying the criticism itself its another matter-the criticism is the primary source.) 
:In history too, the primary sources are the documents and physical monuments. The research done about them is a secondary source. I made a quick   fix it. 
:This mismatch has in fact been a problem in discussing science. WP articles in science and medicine routinely cite research articles primarily. (and in many fields there is nothing else)  Obviously reliable articles evaluating them are important, but they way they tend to be used is to impeach particular sources. I do not think it practical to change the way its done here, and I hope that is not the intent. It would be better to discuss individual articles with the accepted criteria and methods. 
:(and If you think the term is used otherwise in history, I'd like a citation):

In my entry, I made a reference to his book, How, When and Why Modern Art Came to New York, and I mentioned that I was the editor of that book.  If I understand your critique correctly, you believe this violates copyright, or that I am promoting my own book.  Since the book is out of print, that was clearly not my intention.

I've let the highlighted words stand because they make sense.  However, technically, there was no such thing as "Australian citizenship" until 26 January 1949.

thread_title: Citizenship Question

message: A previous version of this article asserted that Gatty was an inventor. This assertion was removed as Australian Dictionary of Biography does not attribute that feature to him. On the other hand, the Popular Mechanics reference from 1931 refers to his "drift sight" as an invention, though apparently it was still under development. If Gatty filed a patent for the drift sight he may be an inventor after all. Further, the Popular Mechanics article mentions collaboration with Philip Weems on a bubble sextant. Weems advertised bubble sextant literature in the 1950s in Flying Magazine. This too could be an invention to which Gatty contributed his skill in development. However, with the sources found so far the evidence for Gatty's status as inventor falls short, though his technical expertise is evident in his achievements.Rgdboer (talk) 02:49, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
