 2. It relates to a university that is relatively well established in Pakistan
 3. I am only completing the stub as part of WP:UNI (specifically, Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Colleges and Universities); the homepage for the university is a little obtuse about its origins (the English is difficult for me to parse). I'm sure more content about the University's history, current teaching, etc. will appear in time.
 4. The page was only created mere moments ago!

Talk:Weidner Communications

message: I don't know Weidner's technology well enough – although I do know a number of people who were involved in the company – to know if the claims about Asian languages accurate reflect what he claimed. They may well do, but they were presented as statements of fact about some hidden genius of Asian writing that I don't think any serious linguists would accept. I don't object to them being put back in if there is appropriate citation and explanation that they are claims made by Weidner or someone else, not just matters of fact.
As a second note, European Commission translation experts do not count as the world's leading experts in translation or translation technology. Over the years the Commission has hired good people, but their endorsement does not mean that the best experts in the world were convinced that Weidner had made a major breakthrough.
As a general note, I think the content is good here, but some of the hyperbolic claims need to be moderated or contextualized.

Talk:MLX (software)

message: .info did a funny parody of MLX - it scanned after every keystroke and buzzed and insulted you if you made a mistake
  Just so folks know: for many years, compute! required Apple II users to use the built-in machine language monitor to enter machine language programs. The user would be instructed to enter CALL-151, and go from there. The apple MLX editor was released as a way of providing apple II users with a more reliable way to proofread machine language entries.
  There was also a striped down version of MLX called "tiny MLX" for the unexpanded VIC-20. It was simpy a one shot, no features way to enter MLX programs into the tiny memory of the VIC. You changed the program to the start point, typed in the whole listing in one shot, and then the program allowed you to save it. It had no numeric keypad, and no other features.
  Eventually tiny MLX was dropped, and the fully fledged MLX, which required vic users to have an 8K memory expansion pak became the only way for VIC users to enter MLX programs.

I don't believe this is correct. The C64 and Atari versions were released in the same issue of the magazine, as the article notes. I recall that issue, and don't remember anything in it that described the history of MLX. 
Do we have any independent source that suggests one version began development earlier or later than the other? Without such, all we know for sure is that both were released at the same time, and that should be stated clearly!

replies: text: I've worked on a lot of "List of wind farms" articles and have never seen this issue of proposed wind farms becoming a problem before.  Normally proposed wind farms are just added into the list (see, for example, List of wind farms in New South Wales), or if there are a lot of proposed farms then a separate table is included near the end of the article (see, for example, List of wind farms).I would also remind you of WP:OWN.

message: Finally getting back around to this.
See  for their definition/release. It states :

So, if Wikipedia is free (non-commercial), then it sure sounds like this is acceptable. I'm getting back to the artcile again, and along with the information from that site, I've also found a couple of other sites with a bit more information. So, once done, it probably won't be a word for word extract anymore. In the past, I at least had enough time to get info from a few other places to make an article 'unique'.
I tend to save often to avoid the various error messages about edit conflicts and loss of session data, and others that wind up losing all of my work, sometimes I lose it all, othertimes it allows me to continue and saves it. Either way, it's a pain, so I generally tend to save periodically. Anyway, by the time the first 'deletion' message came through, it seemed like only a couple hours (if that), I lost quite a bit work, got fed up and started on other work. wbfergus  Talk 15:02, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Template talk:PRI

message: There is a problem with this template. The template:public radio international, is being linked to template:PRI which is the Puerto Rico Flag.
Perhaps the Puerto Rico Flag template could be called Template: PRI Flag, and then the Public Radio International template can be template:public radio international that also ties to PRI.
Finally, additional programs need to be added to the Public Radio International Template, but this cant be added as it is now protected given the incorrect connection with the Puerto Rico flag template.
:The problem was in Template:Public Radio International which I have fixed. As PRI is the three digit ISO 3166-1 code for Puerto Rico, moving this well-used template would cause more confusion than than not as I think almost all of the three digit ISO 3166-1 codes are matched to the templates. Template:Public Radio International is unprotected and you can edit the template by following the link. Thanks, mattbr 19:54, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Édouard Mathé

message: Birthplace
Until recently this biographical stub stated, as one of the few facts known about Mathé, that he was born in Australia. On the imdb and other major film sites, this information remains. His Wikipedia entry, however, was suddenly changed without explanation to state he was born in Courbevoie. I am not saying this is wrong. I don't have his birth certificate in front of me. But the person who changed it, one would hope, is relying on some scource they have not cited.
The closest thing I have been able to find to an online scource is this chatty little blog, the author of which has looked at one of the contemporary obituaries.  http://silentsareentertainingtoo.wordpress.com/2011/10/12/m-edouard-mathe-matters/ Obviously, it is not the best source.

thread_title:  very very poor article. 

message: I added a new section Personifications because in Romanian folklore is an incredibly common feature.  An example of personification is Death in western folklore sometimes presented as a skeleton with sickle and black robes but in Romanian folklore everything gets personified. For example wind = valve , tuesday = Martolea which is a demon type of guy associated with Tuesday night , Sunrise = zori de zi a personification or sunrise yeah how ridiculous is that. But is a very common feature among all folktales. I can speak Romanian by the way and was born there and I like to study folklore. I think the reason for personifactions are because of the quick romanization/christianization of Dacian peoples (dacians were not one cohesive group of people there were many different tribes) which is probably how Romania got homogenized and united as one people. I won't add this in the article because is my own personal belief. What is for sure is a lot of these personifications relate back to pre-christian beliefs..

Talk:Fort William H. Seward

message: A 1920 photo of the fort offers the appearance that it was built on mudflats, with buildings connected via a network of boardwalks.  This differs from not only most other photos I've seen, but my own personal recollections in visiting Haines in years past.  As is the case with many other Alaska NRHP articles, this one is little more than a photo and a bunch of templates.  If there is an explanation for this, I've yet to come across it.RadioKAOS (talk) 00:19, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Historical photo 

message: Unless we're just dumping more NRHP-type random cruft to make it appear as though it's really not a stub, here's some hints as to filling in the holes in the history.  First off, the edit which recently expanded the article included "about  from the city of Haines".  BZZZT!!  The corporate entity known as the City of Haines ceased to exist in 2002.  However, the fort was within Haines corporate limits for decades prior to that (more on that below).  On the ground, there's not much to distinguish the two apart from a few patches of woods in between.  Exact information is available, though a bit sketchy, on its history after it was sold to private interests.  In 1952 or thereabouts, a pair of Fairbanks businessman, Paul Greimann and Chuck West, developed it as a resort hotel (per DeArmond).  I haven't come across much information about this venture other than the suggestion that it was short lived.  I have a copy of West's autobiography, but haven't gotten around to reading any of it.  Not long after, in 1956, the fort was incorporated as the City of Port Chilkoot.  Carl W. Heinmiller, one of the incorporators of the Port Chilkoot Company (described by the Truman Library as a retired major, while not mentioning whether or not he was stationed at the fort when it was active), served as its mayor for most of its existence and was heavily involved in various economic development proposals related to the property.  I believe Port Chilkoot merged with Haines in or around 1970.  Most pre-statehood municipalities were incorporated for the purpose of providing local control over schools.  The advent of statehood and the establishment of the borough system in general, and the 1968 incorporation of the Haines Borough specifically, shifted local control of the area's schools and spelled the end for the need of any such autonomy.  Most information on the City of Port Chilkoot is available from publications of the League of Alaskan Cities (now the Alaska Municipal League) and the Alaska Local Affairs Agency (now part of the Alaska Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development).  Also, it could help to mention the fort's location on the Chilkat Peninsula, especially if there was any strategic advantage to the location.

Since this article was created due to lack of space in the Zionism article it is not a POV-fork, it merely gives more information  on the particular subject of the Zionist attitudes toward Palestinian Arabs. It gives pov's from both sides, e.g. Gorny, Teveth, Ben-Gurion, Shapira, Morris, Karsh, Katz and Bar-Zohar have a pro-Israeli pov, and from neutral sources, e.g.  Flapan and  Sternhell are certainly not pro-Palestinian.
