thread_title:  Self-Inquiry 

message: I am impressed with this articles scope, detail, sourcing, structure and quality of style! It is a pleasure to read. After having read on the subject for years, I have sill come away with new information. 
Nothing is ever perfect and apparently there are still quality criteria to be met. However, as an author currently working on the meditation article in the German wikipedia, I have to accept that the present article is leagues above where we currently stand in the German edition. 
So I'd like to express my respect and thanks to all the authors who have contributed in however small ways to this very informative article! I will use it as an inspiration - or outright steal from it ;)
Thank you for your work! -- Happycow (talk) 16:22, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Applause! 

message: Comparing the main article "effects of meditation" to the subsection in this article with the same name, I would suggest that it needs some improvement. While the main article is rich in proof of positive effects, this section seems to imply differently. 
I have just added another source with proof and would like to continue to do so if there is no objection from your side.

replies: text: Have you read WP:MEDRS? The claims you added are overly broad for a single study to bear out. Here is the important part of MEDRS. "Biomedical information must be based on reliable, third-party published secondary sources, and must accurately reflect current knowledge. This guideline supports the general sourcing policy with specific attention to what is appropriate for medical content in any Wikipedia article, including those on alternative medicine" Be careful with the idea of "proof" when it comes to medical claims. Single PRIMARY studies don't usually cut it. It sounds like I need to go over to "effects of meditation" and explain this there too.  DolyaIskrina (talk) 05:20, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

I believe there are a few more occasions where something like that happens. I agree that he definitely doesn't break the fourth wall often, but at least once or twice he does break it.

Talk:Simon Donald

message: Simon Donald is my brother. When he was about 10 I and his other brother used to call him 'Coconut Tete' due to his peculiarly coconut-like haircut. There was an accompanying song, to the tune of Suzi Quatro's 48 Crash, which we used to sing. Simon also wore a corduroy jacket and matching trousers which were approximately 18 inches too long for him. More recently Simon has become a co-editor of Viz magazine, having contributed since the very first issue. He is, he will tell you, the only person to have contributed to Viz throughout its entire history. His spare time is spread equally between retro-modism (he likes The Who and scooters), football and looking after his strange half-breed dog which has in the past regurgitated a used tampon in the Viz office.
: This is what the article did say, before I just removed most of it. If Simon Donald's brother really does come here, then he could be a valuable source of information! However, most of the above looks unverifiable, and I don't think we can just take it on trust. -- Oliver P. 19:07 Mar 22, 2003 (UTC)

See how to write about UK settlements as to where an article-worthy settlement (not just section-worthy settlement) has common other uses in the English language of UK place names e.g. Derby is relevant which without any extra words is ambiguous but the natural use of the word is paramount, not an in-crowd jargon lazy shorthand.

Talk:Macarena (disambiguation)

message: I've been looking for info re: the traditional Spanish tune "La Virgen de la Macarena" (usu. performed on trumpet) but have been unable to find anything other than mentions in bands' & artists' discographies -- this despite having tried additional searches first with an I and then with an accented E in place of the E in "Virgen".
Because this piece is so well known, I'm surprised that WP appears not to have an article on it.  Does anyone know whether one in fact exists (e.g., under a different title/spelling)?  If it exists, where can I find it?  If it does not, can anyone confirm that?
Not even the Spanish article http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgen_de_la_Macarena links to any information about the tune -- it's all related to the aspect of St. Mary and places named after her.

thread_title:  Grammar issue 

message: This article states there are 34 ATPs being produced. I believe the writer got this number from the fact that during  glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, there are being made: 2 ATP, 6 NADH and 1 FADH2. Indeed, according to the knowledge tha one NADH can give 2,5 ATP, and one FADH2can give 1,5 ATP, this equation works. But, in reality, the first 2 NADHs are produced in the cytoplasm. They need to be transferred to the cristae, which costs energy, lowered their yield to 1,5 ATP per NADH. Also, the Krebs cyclus produces one GTP, which is equivalent to 1 ATP.
In total, this way we would acquire:
Glycolysis: 2 ATP, 2 NADH (= 3 ATP)
Citruc Acid cyclus: 8 NADH (= 20 ATP), 2 FADH2(= 3 ATP) 2 GTP (= 2 ATP)
Giving a total of 30 ATP, instead of 34 ATP, per glucose molecule.
As I got this from schoolwork, my source is "Biology, 8th edition" by Campbell Reece, Pearson. Although I find it important for someone to confirm this finding first.

thread_title:  citations? 

message: This bit caught my eye as very confusing (in the electron transport chain section):
"Those electrons are finally accepted by oxygen (O2), which combine with some of the praseodymium ions from the mitochondrial matrix through ATP synthase and the electrons that had traveled through the plasmodesmata."
What does this mean?  Praseodymium is an element, with no known biological role.  I did find [on Google Books] though:
"In vitro both uptake and release of Ca by mitochondria are blocked by a number of rare-earth elements including lanthanum and praseodymium, but the effects of these substances in vivo have not been examined. It is possible that injection of La or Pr into an axon might be used to "freeze" Ca within the mitochondria"
(P. F. Baker, H. Reuter Calcium Movement in Excitable Cells: Pergamon Studies in The Life Sciences 2013).
