Talk:List of island countries/Archive 2

message: As it is now, the article seems to have only statitstical significance (like saying "list of countries whose name start with A"). If there are any political, economic, military consecuences of being borderless, they should be explained. Otherwise this article is pretty much useless. F15x28 07:10, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: What's the point of this article

message: I think that this article should be rename - every country has to have a border (even island countries define their territory in their constitution). The article name "borderless country" is quite misleading - it should be more suit if it is Island country or Countries with no land border. But the article on island countries already exist - what's the different  between the two articles (borderless country and island country)? If no difference then the article should be merge.

replies: text: I think that was Joshua Chiew's point. "Borderless country" is quite misleading, and doesn't seem very encylopedic when you consider that regardless of whether there is a land border, many nations do claim waters that border each other. The current article isn't sourced because (as I've searched) almost all references to "borderless country" appear only on Wikipedia, the two other instances I came across immediately were a fansite about games, and an article talking about a hypothetical "borderless" country "built for peace." Island countries are obvious, they're defined by the fact they are islands. I suggest that the useful information be merged into Island country, and then redirect (or AfD) this article.

message: Since it has obviously been contentious, should this article be merged to List of island countries?  Such a merge has happened once already, with content from here merged in there during this diff.  So if a merge or redirection occurs, this article may not be deleted unless the List of island countries is deleted first.  Instead  should be used.  (Some people have claimed that this article was a POV fork of the other.  It certainly didn't start that way; the first version of this article does not have content that was in that article.

Talk:Pike's Peak gold rush

message: The following discussion can be found in the quarterly reports, of the Colorado Historical Society, (up to the year 1980 or so)(I do not Know the Volume No., nor the Year).
Following the sequence of Placer mining, then Hard rock mining, financiers from the Eastern United States, (Buffalo, etc), planned the next resource available for mining in Colorado (for tapping the Mining/Natural resources of Colorado).
The Sugar beet industry of South eastern Colorado, required land, Water, and financing. The factory that was built: Circa 1905, for producing Sugar, was only decomissioned, I think in the early 1960's.
The story of the minerals, went from Placer, to Hard-Rock, then to this 3 rd alternative, which again was used for some 60+ years. (Water, was the resource, and the Land, and the HuManpower.) Michael,inHOTdesertYuma,AZ, ....--Mmcannis 00:19, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

The location is actually west of Golden (as in the infobox), not west of Silver Plume, which is many miles upstream and would have Interstate 70 next to it if it was.

replies: text: I'd want better sources before revising the articles, but I suspect what happened is that Colorado Springs was selected as the location for the territorial capital in 1861, but that the legislature didn't hold sessions there until 1862 and likely moved the capital soon after due to civil war conflicts in the area.

message: I would like to express my concern about the current content of the "Territory of Colorado" article. The article contains extensive information that is more relevant to the history of the State of Colorado rather than focusing on the Territory period (1861–1876).
To improve the clarity and relevance of the article, I suggest a more concise rewrite that focuses strictly on the history of the Territory of Colorado from its creation during the Civil War to its statehood in 1876.

Following the acquisition the factory was closed and production was moved to Canada (I believe) where it continues today.  Additionally, the candies changed shape after the relocation, from rectangular to more of a circular shape (similar legnth and wrapper).  Not sure if they still make the long flat ones, but I remember having those as a kid.

message: This should read "Rhine water" (two separate words). Combining them into a single word is to me pretty clear evidence that the English article was written by a Dutch-speaker who did not bother to have his or her English checked by a native before posting it. Such compounds are generally written as a single word in Dutch (in this case "Rijnwater"), and this is one of the most typical errors made by Dutch-speakers when writing in English: "hotelreservation", "salesmanager" and so on. The link is to the article on "Rhine", not "Rhine water" or the non-existent "Rhinewater". Since this is a link I can't risk damaging it by trying to make the correction myself (if I click there it simply activates the link), so I hope someone with the necessary technical skill can do it for me.

It's still more natural to say "hotel reservation" and "sales manager" as two words but "Rhine water" is just as alien to English as "Rhinewater". If there were such a concept, the second one would be just as native, although Brits might prefer to hyphenate it. A translator who knew what they were talking about would just say "the Rhine" or "water from the Rhine" depending on the use. — LlywelynII 01:49, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

message: Please do not merge the articles. A "moving company" and a "relocation company" are two different types of business enterprise. Many moving companies have the word "relocation" in them, true, but so do many residential real estate brokerage agencies. Does anyone think we need to merge Moving company and Real estate broker as well? Relocation services comprises employee benefits related to their transfers from one city to another. This type of work is often performed by Human resources professionals within a corporation who specialize in managing employee relocation."Relocation management services" are third-party companies that will run a corporation's relocation program on an outsourced basis. They may be involved in hiring a moving company, or auditing the moving company's bills, but they also juggle all the income tax issues for the transferring employees (relo benefits are taxable in the U.S. and other countries) and their employers and hire real estate agents to sell the old house, find them a house in the destination city, and even provide advice on good schools, etc. So this is an HR thing, not a trucking thing.
Perhaps the article should be re-titled "Employee relocation services" instead.
