Talk:Murder of Kristen French

message: This article was proposed for deletion February 2005.  Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Kristen French.  Joyous 02:42, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
I think you should leave the article because this girl was murdered and didn't have the chance to be known, and I also think we should write more about her life before her horrible murder and also put a picture of her up ...the one where she is smiling because after all she was the girl known at her school with the pretty smile and beautiful face. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.101.113.10 (talk) 21:46, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: What the article urgently needs are sources to verify several of the statements that give the subject notability. I'm a 19-year-old southern Californian: I know the impacts that the murders of Laci Peterson and Danielle Van Dam had; but I and many others are going to need sources to have the same understanding of this girl's impact. -Fsotrain09 01:55, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

message: There are many other individuals named Kristen French in the world, including myself, and I find it unfortunate that every time someone googles my name this tragic story is the first entry that pops up. I think it would be more fair and accurate to include Dawn in the entry name for this person. Thank you. Kristen french (talk) 20:35, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Holy Roller

message: I removed the specific reference to Pentecostals being Slain in the Spirit because the term is certainly broader than that applied to these churches. Many of those who oppose Pentecostalism and who think that being "Slain in the Spirit" is actually unchristian could also be guilty of being a "Holy Roller" simply because of a judgemental attitude. --One Salient Oversight 06:19, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Holy Rollers are not literally "rolling"

message: I cannot, and will not, agree that this page is neutral.  It fails to mention the thousands of people that gladly accept the term because they are, if fact, holy, yet nonjudgmental and wear the term with pride.  It also shines a very poor light on many religions that have been labeled "Holy Rollers" in the past but over time have become well respected and rather established religions.

thread_title: Neutrality

message: The line in the article about Shakers and Quakers makes absolutely no sense.  These denominations did not "Shake" or "Quake".  Someone should fix this as this article makes a mockery of the Wikipedia. Goaty 07:26, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Shakers!? Quakers!? 

message: I rewrote the article to present two different etymologies of the term, and positive and negative views of the less derogatory.  I could not, however, get good sources, though this is in line with what I've heard before, and makes more sense.  I've marked the article unsourced, anyway.    I've also made it a stub, and tried to keep the content to a minimum, while still covering the basic ideas one has of a holy roller, from either side of the fence.  It is still moderately tainted with my POV, perhaps, but hopefully the fact that I don't really care about holy rollers (they're mostly obsolete and obscure at this point) means it isn't too bad, so I've removed the neutrality-dispute, now that it isn't a wholly ridiculous article.  --Flata 01:22, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rewritten 

message: As used in the late nineteenth century, "holy roller" often referred to the scroll mentioned in Zechariah 5:1 "Then I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, there was a flying scroll"  and again adverted to in the Book of Revelation - which listed the bad and the good, the ones who would be destroyed in the end times, and the 144,000 who would be saved.   This group also was quite interested in the Key of David, the Church of Philadelphia, and other Revelations mysticism.  But the Holy roll did not refer to rolling around on the floor, but to the mystical roll with the saved and the damned.  I am sure that, in common usage, it also refers to convulsions of religious fervor.  But I think the listing should at least mention the other background.

raver has absolutely nothing to do with hater
*Comment re copyvio notice.  I have no problem deleting this but you may be wrong on the copyvio.  The first half of the "hater" definition was created over two years ago and the second paragraph was added by another user (or user name at least) over a year later, and still more than a year ago.  The web site you cited in your copyvio notice, on the other hand, has no entries in the Internet Archive, while the Wikepedia page appears twice.  Though not dispositive, it strikes me that it is more than likely that the other site lifted the definition from Wikipedia, not vice versa.  Why should we have to start rewriting articles just because other sites take Wikipedia works without attribution? DS1953 23:15, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

changed the article to indicate that Riviere des Prairies was now considered suitable for swimming. I don't know if it was vandalism that escaped notice for 3 years, or a well-intentioned mistake, but recent water testing data and media reports clearly show that parts of the river are not suitable for swimming (Bad or even Polluted). 
For examples see: RSMA and West Island Chronicle.

Talk:Random permutation

message: How much needs to be in this article before the stub notice is removed?  We could go on and on about random permutations, but I don't think the article should be too long... --Adking80 20:17, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The Knuth shuffle example was intended to show the "inside-out" variant where initialization of the array is combined with the shuffle, rather than a pure shuffle of an existing array (which got broken by the 2014/11/30 edit). Either the text should be changed to remove discussion of the improved algorithm ("The initialization to the identity permutation and the shuffling may be combined, as in the following example."), or the example code should reflect the text. I like the latter option better. Regarding the definition of uniform(m), I think defining uniform(m) to generate 0 to m inclusive is easier to understand than defining it to generate 0 to m-1 and then using uniform(i+1) in the code. Henry stuffedcow (talk) 19:40, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: As seems to no one is going to repair this (a year after someone spotted the error and two years after the wrong code was introduced to the article... I can't imagine how much javascript code is now out there with this wrong algorithm:) I have done the minimal necessary corrections. The original algorithm, that perform a permutation to any given set, is much more important than inside-out version, so  I used this version. In the form "0 to n-2", see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher%E2%80%93Yates_shuffle#Modern_method . To avoid confusion I modified the text to 'index form 0' convention - the same as used in the pseudocode. If someone want to introduce the correct inside-out version, I think it should be done by adding the second code, not by overwriting this one. Bartekltg (talk) 23:40, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

"one of the singular art rock records of the '80s" ... "the last great punk album of the Reagan era" ...

Talk:Russell B. Long

message: I just merged a duplicate article by an anon. Since I don't know much about this subject, I'm pasting the content of the duplicate article here in case there's any verifiable content anyone wants to incorporate into this article:
----
Russell Long was elected a Democratic U.S. Senator from Louisiana in 1948 and served for many decades.  He was the son of the controversial, assasinated governor of Louisiana.  As part of Georgia Senator Richard Russell's "southern bloc" in the Senate, Senator Long was often forced to vote along with the other Southern senators against civil rights legislation, though there is evidence that he personally supported civil and voting rights for blacks and Mexican-Americans.

Talk:Mòd

message: I restored the section which was removed as "offensive", and added a reference.  Offensive or not, it is a fact that the press popularly refers to the whisky olympics. It is a fact that bars are opened late, indeed at the Oban Mod there was a controversy because the extension was only a few hours; unfortunately the Oban Times does not have online archives.
If some find this offensive, it would be appropriate to say that too, but I can't find a reference. Facts should not be suppressed because some find them offensive; that would be a very dangerous trend, because there is someone ready to line up to be offended by about anything.
The reference to a real whisky event may seem irrelevant, but I think it may be important to establish that sometimes people mean something else. Better would be an article on the actual whisky olympics, but I haven't been able to complete that research. Notinasnaid 10:05, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: Since 'mòd' has no direct equivalent in other Celtic languages, and given the long-standing Viking presence in Gaelic-speaking areas of Scotland, I'm tempted to see the word as related to modern Norwegian 'møte' (= meeting, gathering) and similar words in other Scandinavian languages (including Old Norse), rather than the suggested Old English 'gemot' - since in those days there was surely very little connection between the Old English and Gaelic language areas.
