Talk:Enchiridion of Epictetus

message: I believe the Enchiridion was such a practical handbook it was distributed to soldiers.Kenneth Kloby (talk) 17:41, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Practical Handbook 

message: Handbook appears to be a more common translation and, in my (admittedly limited) opinion, is more evocative of what Enchiridion actually would have meant to contemporaries. If anyone has objections to this please state them but for now I will be making the relevant change to the articles opening.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fritz1776 (talk • contribs) 18:26, 31 May 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Human evolution

message: I'm currently translating this article into Basque, so I have a full perspective on the content. Homo heidelbergensis section should be expanded, I think that we could just use the lead of the article itself, is pretty good. Also, the debated species should be added to the best known species (i.e. Homo erectus and related). This would make the list of species near the bottom of the article unnecesary, and the article easier to read and with better flow. Theklan (talk) 15:25, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Free Links" should be moved to "free links" 

message: Free links are useful for the legibility of links within the wiki; they're titled like how they're linked. However, those who advocate for CamelCases say that too much spaces tend to clutter up the URL or lead to all-space links.  . Personally, I favor free links because my first and currently-primary wiki experience was with Wikipedia's wikitext. But I have seen the other linking options offered in the usemodwiki article, and some of those seem like they could be useful in certain situations. --Toussaint 14:35, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I just edited the ellipses again. The first ellipsis follows a period at the end of a sentence, and, since an ellipsis is three periods and the end of a sentence already has a period, we have a total of four periods. The other two ellipses come in the middle of a sentence, so they need only three periods, but there should be spaces around them so that the first of the three periods doesn't appear to be the period at the end of a sentence. At least that's how I see it. Maurice Magnus (talk) 02:18, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

It seems highly unlikely that someone typing "function" into Wikipedia would expect to be taken to the user page of a Wikipedian with a similar name.

message: It is a stretch to call Jeddah Corniche and Miami a street circuit. 
Jeddah: Most features are permanent (e.g., pit buildings) and if you look at Google Maps, there is not a single car on those “streets” but there are elsewhere in Jeddah. The streets are clearly not open to regular traffic and it would not make sense if they were as the circuit is built between two public roads. 
Miami: this is 90% a parking lot of a football stadium. It includes a section of a public road, but again, it is a stretch to call it a street circuit. 
I propose removing non street circuits. Keeping Wikipedia pages honest by removing inaccurate and obviously, self-promotional text.  (talk) 13:56, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: This comment is WP:Original research. I know (because I researched when I was repling to your comment at Talk:Jeddah Corniche Circuit) that many sources call that venue a street circuit, so we must too. As for Miami, the statement in unsourced either way (no source calls it a street circuit, but no source calls identifies it as purpose built), so I have requested a citation for it.

message: Hey guys, I've never published on wiki. But I do remember this movie because I lived where the crash was filmed. I have a fun fact but don't know how to add it. 
Fun fact, Fearless' original title was "Joyride" according to posted signs where the crash was filmed. The crash was filmed in a corn field near Arvin and Bakersfield, California, just off the 99 freeway. On Bear Mountain bulevard, signs needed to be posted informing citizens that it was a movie location because locals were calling 9-1-1 to report an airplane crash. The site was not closed to the public and you could drive through the wreckage. 2603:9008:1D06:FDEF:68BD:D6DF:D5CE:587D (talk) 02:55, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

Talk:List of programmers

message: I saw the text below on mastodon. It may be worth adding to the list, but I don't have the expertise. 
 I accidentally stumbled on a Wikipedia article recently: List of Programmers [en.wikipedia.org]. There is one and only one blind programmer on that list.  Wanna guess who it is?  Ted Henter of Henter-Joyce (now Freedom Scientific). I can name you many blind programmers who have done noteworthy things and belong on that list.
    Larry Skutchan of American Printing House for the Blind. Known for TextTalker (Apple II screenreader), ASAP (DOS screenreader), and much much more.
    Tim Cranmer. Best known for the Cranmer modified Perkins braille writer, an early electronic braille embosser.
    T.V. Raman. Known for: emacspeak (a self-voicing extension for emacs), Chromevox, Talkback on Android).
    The numerous brltty hackers: Nikhil Nair, Nicolas Pitre, Dave Mielke, Stephane Doyon, Mario Lang, et al. Brltty is used for braille support on Linux and other Unixes. It is also used by NVDA on Windows. I think it might be used under the hood for braille support on Android. If it isn’t, then liblouis definitely is, and liblouis was initially the creation of deaf-blind hacker John J. Boyer.
    Karl Dahlke. Known for: edbrowse, various speech adapters. This man has been rolling his own accessibility solutions since the Apple II days in the early 80s. He wrote a text to speech system for his ATT 3B workstation and posted it to the net.sources Usenet group. Truly an amazing man, a personal hero, mentor, and friend.
    Kirk Reiser. Best known for: Speakup, a Linux console screenreader. A community grew up around this. Speakup-enabled boot and rescue disks gave a lot of blind people an on-ramp to Linux.
    Michael Curran and James Teh, the people behind NVDA, the first and only free screenreader for Windows.
 That’s still an incomplete list. I’d also say that Matt Campbell @matt probably belongs on it, and if he doesn’t, he’ll probably end up there on account of his AccessKit work.
 There’s my hat-tip to blind hackers, inventors, and tinkers.

message: You will never be happy here. As twisted and biased in favor of what the masses think as it is, wiki/an encyclopedia,  is still nonetheless fact based. A wiki article perforce will attempt to describe, i.e. to recount the facts of faith. So facts and faith, the source of your complaint are in fundamental opposition, faith is what you have when you believe without evidence or rather without even the possibility of evidence. Believers want their faith confirmed not confronted which is what describing it in a factitious way does. It will be interesting to see how this article develops over time and in particular if the difference between faith granted (with the possibility of retraction) vs the other kind which is what the article is currently  about cleaves cleanly rather than skirting as  the academic obfuscation under the current epistemology § does.
