Talk:Phagocytosis

message: This section could do with some work.  There is an attempt to describe some of the molecular and signalling details, but it is not accurate.  It reads as if nuclear transcription (activation of NFkappa by pattern recognition receptors) is required before phagocytosis, but it is not.  Indeed, neutrophils can be manipulated such that they loose their nucleus entirely, and these cells can still phagocytose.

thread_title:   In immune system  

message: A minor point I am sur--~~~~Insert non-formatted text heree, but wondering if any Greek linguists could clarify if phagocytosis actually means cell eating or whether it is derived from phagocyte which would suggest the action of an eating-cell, the difference being whether cell is the object of subject of the verb to eat. Actually now I think of it, it must be the latter, as phagocytosis doesn't refer to only cells being consumed. Can anyone think of a better way to phrase the ambiguous cell eating in the article? -- postglock 09:37, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Untitled 

message: After conquest of Constantinople Mehmed II has declared himself emperor but this can be only legal ( for inheritance right ) if it's possible that Osman ( XIII century ) has not attacked Byzantium, but this has been revolt. First fortress Osman has taken in alliance with Byzantium garnison ( because they have not received wage ) which has revolted and accepted him for ruler. Children and grandchildren of that revolted fortress commander has been ministers in Turkish government in next 200 years. 
Claim that daughter of Demetrius has been favorite wife is historical crazy because Turkish rulers has not been having favorite wife for next 100 years and in the end she has finished her life on one greek island and not in Constantinople harem. From that point Mehmed can't be Byzantine heir.rjecina year 2006.

:That's a good question.  The answer is simple: I have no idea.  I got all the information for the article from the site linked at the bottom (no, I didn't just copy & paste it--I gathered the facts and wrote a new text).

: A possible source of confusion to the original researchers could be that the President's Office was a smaller building (construction began in 1852), located between Beehive House and Lion House.

Talk:Vanadium(V) oxide

message: How many tons of V2O5 are needed to produce only 1 ton of Ferrovanadium?
:Molar mass of V2O5 = 182 g/mol.  This produces 2 x 51g = 102 g vanadium metal.  Since ferrovanadium contains anywhere from about 35 to 80% vanadium metal the answer to your question has quite a wide range, but roughly speaking (using the above calculation) 1 ton of V2O5 produces about 1 ton of ferrovanadium.

thread_title:  Untitled 

message: An anonymous editor is insisting on including a section on this topic.  However, the writing is so specialised as to be incomprehensible to the average reader - my PhD is in organic chemistry, and I don't understand a word of it.  I have cleaned up the worst misspellings/grammar, but if this is to stay the editor needs to do the following:
*Explain why this topic is important enough to appear on a general page on V2O5.
*Explain the topic in terms th
333t an undergraduate chemistry student could understand, and a high school student could get the gist of.
*Make the section briefer; currently this section is about as long as the "uses" section.  Considering the huge importance of the uses of V2O5, that makes it unbalanced.  It might be OK if (say) V2O5 is about to become a major component of all the world's computer monitors, but somehow I don't think that's the case here.  
If the above concerns cannot be addressed, then I'm afraid the section will have to be removed again.  Wikipedia is not Chemical Reviews, that's what the chemical literature is for. Walkerma 16:03, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm puzzled by the comment The Irish Civil War is generally not commemorated there, as it is still a politically divisive issue. I can see why nobody would want to commemorate it - for one thing, it would be difficult to decide who should be commemorated there and which actions. I thought that it had ceased being divisive some decades ago - the date 1970 sticks in my mind for some reason. (Was it because of the Troubles that it became less important or was the deaths of those who felt most strongly about it?) Autarch 19:44, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Irish Civil War

message: As stated, the garden is dedicated to all those who gaves their lives for Irish Freedom, therefore it must also be used to commemorate the Provisional IRA, INLA and other groups? No specific group is mentioned to ensure it was a catch-all memorial. While many may not agree with them - they were fighting for Irish Freedom.
Seeing as its an Irish government monument to those fighting for Irish freedom its highly unlikely it commemorates campaigns undertaken by organizations such as PIRA or INLA who do not recognize the legitimacy of the Irish State and were/are illegal organizations within the Irish state. The IRA has been banned since the 1930s and INLA was banned pretty much from its inception. According to http://www.tourist-information-dublin.co.uk/garden-of-remembrance.htm it only commemorates up until the War of Independence. --Bigmeuprudeboy (talk) 17:03, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

message: I tried to rewrite this naive para ("failure was...in the Soviets' failure to keep their word. Roosevelt did not cede to Stalin the right to control Eastern Europe." - he didn't? So in other words, was Roosevelt naive and incompetent? and the phrase "Stalin  made USSR a dictatorship" is simply wrong - USSR was a dicatatorsip long before Stalin) but ended with something rather POVed - if in the second direction, so I am pasting my rewritten para here, for your comments and improvement: "However, some argue that the failure was not in the Yalta Agreement, but in Western Allies belief that Stalin's dicatorship could be trusted. Neither Roosevelt nor Churchill did not cede - officialy - to Stalin the right to control Eastern Europe. The Yalta Agreement guaranteed free elections for Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. However it is hard to comprehend how the Western Allies could have honestly believe Stalin's promise, given USSR past and present behaviour - the Katyn Massacre, its hostility to Polish government-in-exile and its persecution of Armia Krajowa members engaged in the Operation Tempest. The USSR intentions were clerly visible in the Trial of the Sixteen which took place near the same time as the Yalta conference. It was Stalin's treachery and ruthless ambition -- coupled with Western Allied leaders incompetence and desire for 'peace at all costs' -- that paved the way for the division of Europe and the allowed the Cold War. After 1945 the United States did not respond because they feared a third world war and because of (by 1949) a threat of nuclear war." --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 12:55, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Centralized discussion/Speedy category renaming

message: Per the naming convention above (as well as consensus to prefer "United States" over "US" and "United Kingdom" over "UK" in this poll), I would like to propose as a speedy renaming criterion that any category name containing an abbreviation should be renamed to spell out the abbreviation. The obvious exception (by that naming convention, too) is if the term is almost exclusively known only by its acronym (e.g. laser, DJ). Radiant_>|< 13:27, August 17, 2005 (UTC)
*A good idea, and to me an obviously good naming rule, but that can become tricky as a speedy criteria. The problem may come from the exceptions gray area. Your DJ example sounds like one of those, to me it is not obviously better than Disk jockey, notice that we have an article on Disk jockey with DJ redirecting to it. And any speedy criteria should only state the (almost) obvious. Nabla 02:21:42, 2005-08-28 (UTC)
**Yes, that is precisely why (below) it is suggested to give a waiting period for speedy candidates. The issue is not that the rename should be done immediately, but that it should be done without further discussion (to prevent people who like acronyms from rehashing the same arguments every time). Radiant_>|< 14:29, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
*This is already a guideline (see WP:CG#General_naming_conventions).  I think there are many exceptions (LGBT comes to mind), but we could certainly try it out for a while. -- Rick Block (talk) 14:21, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
**Maybe creating a list of precedents would help to clarify. Speedy renames would be allowed (or not) for the ones listed there.
