Talk:Ultima Online/Archive 3

message: I added that tag because of the opinions stated: "overwhelmingly" "a few" etc. towards the end.  Without numbers, those statements are meaningless and do not provide enough information.  If nothing else, they seem to be original research. --Sydius 17:22, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

text: The new tag "as noted" could be called original research (since it is Wikipedia doing the noting), and it still does not address the other weasel words (a few, etc.).

Talk:El Rancho Charter School

message: Hm, I do have proof that El Rancho went to nationals and won at state championships for all the way to 2005, I believe.  However, they are all on separate websites, and there is probably no proof of the state competitions before that because the universities should have deleted the website by now.  What kind of proof would be needed to let me say that this school won nine state championships?  I have a feeling that there's not much out there.

Talk:Continuum Fingerboard

message: The Continuum Fingerboard has a new kind of modular synthesizer built in, specifically designed for the Continuum Fingerboard.  I would like the following to be included in this Wikipedia article (as a new section "Built-in synthesizer" before the "Continuum players" section), but since I build the Continuum Fingerboards, it is my understanding it would be unethical for me to add the text.  If someone reading this agrees that the following is appropriate, please go ahead and add it (or an edited version thereof).  I can supply the picture with copyright permissions.  [ Please check out this video, it may help you decide if the text below is appropriate: http://www.hakenaudio.com/Continuum/eaganmatrixvvcbv.html ]
The EaganMatrix is a modular digital synthesizer built into Continuum Fingerboards manufactured since late 2008.  The EaganMatrix uses a patching matrix to design synthesis algorithms. The patching matrix interconnects a variety of modules: oscillator, filter, delay, spectral manipulation, physical modeling, granulation, and shape generator. Each three-dimensional performance direction of the Continuum playing surface can influence each patch point in the matrix. By defining formulas and placing them at points in the patching matrix, the user creates relationships between the finger touching the Continuum playing surface and the flow of sound from patch sources to patch destinations.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.228.62.120 (talk) 16:18, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Talk:William O'Brien (trade unionist)

message: I assume the quote attributed to W.T. Cosgrave re Leon Trotsky is taken verbatim from the cited source, but I cannot make head nor tail of it. Who is the "he" referred to, if it is supposed to be what Cosgrave said to O'Brien? "I asked his nationality. Reply Jew." Trotsky was Russian! Everybody knew that. "They were against religion (he said that was modified). I said not by Trotsky." That isn't even English. It could mean any number of things. And so on. It sounds like a diary entry by an illiterate or a drunk. In any case why is it needed? It in no way defines O'Brien's life or career. Also, the article says that Cosgrave "notably" turned down a plea for asylum. Was it notable? Certainly, I had never heard of it before. I suggest the blockquote be removed and the paragraph be replaced by the following:
*In 1930, O'Brien sought to have Leon Trotsky given asylum in Ireland, but the head of the Free State government, W. T. Cosgrave, refused to allow it.
