Talk:Raksha Bandhan

message: Hello! 
I have a few thoughts about the Etymology, meaning, and usage section of this article. In my personal opinion, when I read this section, I found it to be quite lengthy. Seeing that Raksha bandhan is tagged a Hindu festival page, I would expect as a reader to read a lot more about the festival itself. WP:Undue is one particular policy that I want to tag because "avoiding giving undue weight means articles should not give minority views or aspects as much of or as detailed a description as more widely held views or widely supported aspects." 
The second policy that comes to mind is  Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary and the last policy that I would add on here is WP:Excessdetail. 
I would be very interested to hear what people have to say about this. Maybe learn a new perspective in the process. But, overall, the point that I'm trying to make is that I feel this portion of the article should be condensed somewhat.  Chilicave (talk) 02:45, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ask and ye shall receive 

message: Devastation had one weapon which was rather innovative for its time (not many games would enable the player to directly control another entity at this time): player controlled bomb rats - literally, rodents carrying explosives controlled from the perspective of the rodent. The player character would bob a rat on the head to activate their electonics and set them down before the perspective changed to the view of the rat and control was transferred to the rat. Turning around, one could get a look at the model of the player from a rather low angle. Being entities of small size, one could squeeze through small holes, take some shortcuts a player was usually unable to take and give enemies a nasty surprise. Upon running into enemies, said bad guys would sqeal in fear for a bit before stomping on the rat. Bomb rats were usefull to take out the enemy respawn generators without running into tight groups of freshly respawned enemies. One of their great weaknesses was that the player was frozen in place while the rat was active - making them unable to defend against enemy attacks.

Talk:Self-report inventory

message: I would like to suggest adding sections about "Mechanism" and "Adverse Effects." These are not commonly discussed in psychological assessment contexts, but they are part of the WP:MEDRS for medical assessments. I think that it would be worth describing here, and then articles about specific self report inventories could link back here for detail. That would use the programming idea of DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) and also would increase the number of internal links for each page. 
There are a variety of other topics that could be introduced here, including 
* Social desirability
* Acquiescence (discussed as a possible contributor to the cultural differences in Big Five personality scores)
* Response set
* Face validity
* Reactivity
* Fatigue and burden effects
* Mood induction or distress due to reflecting about sensitive topics
It also would be worth linking to pages about standardization and norms, observational measurements, psychophysiological measurements, Multitrait-Multimethod (MTMM) models, etc.
Chapter 13 of Guion's book is especially relevant.

Talk:7" of the Month Club

message: I just revised the track listing for format, and noticed that "Golden Boys" was erroneously listed as a Dickies cover. Though The Dickies did record a version of it (for 1995's Idjit Savant), the song itself is at least a decade older than that and different recordings of it had previously been released by several other artists. It was written by Darby Crash and Pat Smear during the final months of the Germs/Darby Crash Band, and the first recorded version was by Vagina Dentata—featuring Smear and Germs associate Gerber (aka Michelle Bell)—on the Flipside Vinyl Fanzine Vol. II compilation (1984). I have the NOFX vinyl at home, and I believe it says "(Vagina Dentata)" on it below the song title (it may also say Darby Crash...I'll have to check when I get home). Here's some more info on the song. I've changed the notation in the article to "originally performed by Vagina Dentata". --IllaZilla (talk) 22:43, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

The article states this clearly.

Talk:Central Park (shopping complex)

message: Wikipedia is not a directory of stores at Central Park. With what appears to be 50+ of the 255 businesses in Central Park listed, I have a concern that the coverage is excessive. I think this goes more for the restaurants than for the retail stores, but it also probably goes for them as well seeing as how 25+ of the items listed are stores. I'm thinking it may be best to just cut all of that out. Does anybody have an idea as to how other articles on very large retail? I can offer that the Mall of America article lists around 7 stores and a few other unique attractions. That's an even bigger complex with fewer businesses listed.

message: The products: Waterloo BASIC, WATCOM APL, WATCOM COBOL, WATCOM FORTRAN, WATCOM Pascal and the Waterloo 6809 Assembler were used in the Commodore Super Pet which was created with them in mind. The hardware (additions to the Pet) were done in Toronto and software at Waterloo.
This was a Commodore Pet with the processor (6801?) removed and a daughterboard in its place with a Motorola 6809 and 64K of RAM for the compilers on it. The Super Pet was sold with all the WatCom software. It was developed partially before the release of the 6809 with Waterloo getting the NDA spec for the processor from Commodore without Motorola knowledge.
The idea was that this would be a teaching computer as it contained many of the programming languages that would be taught in a Computer Science class.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.231.43.16 (talk) 22:44, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I believe Watcom's underlying libs attained a boost by simply doing less, skipping a lot of defensive coding practices and customary expected behaviors that weren't mandated in the C spec.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.44.12.242 (talk) 19:32, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
