Talk:Pathet

message: According to Barry Drummond and other ethnomusicologists, Slendro Nem and Pelog Lima are the lowest pathet and transfer to one another- not Slendro Nem and Pelog Nem. Slendro Nem favors gong tone 2 and Slendro Sanga favors gong tone 5, while Pelog Nem favors gong tone 5 and Pelog Lima favors gong tone 1. Furthermore, the parallels to "dominant" and "tonic" are misleading, and Pelog Barang has a range of possible gong tones. For this reason, it might be more ideal to replace the chart given with an examination of each pathet in order. Bassedancer (talk)
:I would guess the table is based on Hood, whose theory is indeed not universally endorsed.    But by "transfer" do you mean there are pieces played in both pelog lima and slendro nem?   I cant think of any off the top of my head... There is a correspondence both of range and of sequence in time, the last being a common Javanese definition of pather that ia not yet covered in the article.Sparafucil (talk) 06:40, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Talk:André Mandouze

message: The Nordrhein-Westfälische Akademie der Wissenschaften (Academy of Sciences Germany) aims to digitalize the „Reallexikon für Antike und Christentum” to which Mr. André Mandouze contributed. Due to the fact that that Mr. André Mandouzehas already died, the Academy of Sciences is unable to license the intellectual property rights directly by him. In this case the German Copyright Law demands his legal successor to approve the usage of his intellectual property rights. In a first step the Academy of Sciences is collecting all accessible information of the legal successor and heirs. So please do not hesitate to contact me (reallexikon[at]joernheckmann.de) if you have any information about the heirs of Mr. André Mandouze.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.76.10.66 (talk) 17:20, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Mariane Pearl

message: → (The following post was copied to this article talk page after having been removed from the article.)
Mariane Pearl is indeed the widow of a famous person. She is also a journalist in her own right. However, how she had endured, survived, and suceeded following the kidnapping and brutal decaptitation of her husband, ten days before the birth of their only child, does merit her bio being included in Wikipedia.
I do not know personally Mariane Pearl. But, from research I have conducted concerning her life, I can attest that Ms. Pearl is a woman and a journalist, of profound moral and spiritual courage. Her story doesn't only deserve to be told and shared in this forum, it needs to be told.

Talk:Thierry Le Luron

message: As a native French speaker, I can see a large part was probably translated word-for-word from fr.wikipedia. Among other problems:
* Proper names are translated, including translating his own last name "Le Luron" to "The Tomboy", the band name to "Les rats crevés" to "The Dead Rats", the TV show names "Jeu de la chance" and "Télé Dimanche" to "Game of Chance" and "TV Sunday", the theater name "l’Échelle de Jacob" to "Jacob's Ladder", his album name "Le Ministère patraque" to "The Woozy Ministry". All of these are also redlinks.
* Frenchims: "imitation" instead of "impersonator", "viewers" instead of "attendees",...
* Sentences that make no sense "He performed his first sketches in the same issue", "From de Gaulle to Mitterrand at the Marigny Theatre (January-December 1983), The Tomboy went to the Théâtre du Gymnase Marie Bell (November 1984 – March 1986)", "an individual with no particular equities", "singing and blackmailing the public's ignorance", and many others.
* Outright wrong information: "On 25 September 1985, he got married to Micheal Vicenty". It was a wedding parody, and it was with Coluche (which is mentioned later in the article in a sentence that makes no sense either). "A few weeks later he gave birth to his son". Le Luron never had any children.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.236.58.6 (talk) 07:19, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Pierre Albert-Birot

message: I have no idea who the hero of Grabinoulor is, but it seems unlikely to be a ner-anagram of "We, Albert-Birot" for the simple reason that "we" is not a French word. There's nothing in :fr:Pierre Albert-Birot about this, and my gsearch came back empty-handed. 
The French has:
 ...à partir de 1933, que Jean Follain l'amène à réunir ses anciens amis chaque quinzaine autour de dîners dits Grabinoulor, du nom de l'épopée dont l'écriture occupera toute sa vie, du nom aussi du personnage éponyme, double littéraire d'Albert-Birot. 
To translate:
 ...from 1933, Jean Follain started to gather his old friends every fortnight for so-called Grabinoulor dinners, from the name of the epic whose writing would occupy all his [Albert-Birot's] life, and its eponymous character, the literary double of Albert-Birot.
Not surprising that the character's name was an anagram if it were identical! (At least, if we define "anagram" such that words are anagrams of themselves.) 85.67.32.244 (talk) 19:52, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello, I'm the guy who wrote the French article, and I have been working on Albert-Birot a lot when I studied French literature. It's true that friends of Albert-Birot used to call him Grabinoulor in the 30's, but I've never read anything about Grabinoulor being an anagram.

Talk:Terahertz

message: Is this article an Advertisement? Why not leave Terahertz defined (as it was) and add an external link? Better yet, there is an article concerning the use of terahetz radiation which would be even better for the external link. Terahertz radiation
: I don't think it's an advert - but it's a poor choice of title for this subject matter (or conversely - a poor choice of information for this title!).   Terahertz means 1,000,000,000,000 Hertz.  It doesn't mean some kind of radiation - it's a measure of frequency and nothing else.   This article appears to be about electromagnetic radiation in the Terahertz frequency range - which ought to be called "Terahertz Electromagnetic Radiation" or something.  SteveBaker 03:10, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yeah, the original article (according to the history of the page) was for the unit of terahertz. It looks as if somebody tried to fix it and someone else posted this article again. There is actually an article for terahertz radiation as I pointed out in the link. As for the advert part, the way the Novatron device is introduced is not exactly encyclopedic. A separate article titled "Novatron" with a reference from the "radiation" article would probably work better. This is actually the first time I have commented on anything here but I do use wikipedia quite a bit. Syscore 11:24, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh - I'm sorry - I hadn't noticed that the link was a Wikipedia article (you didn't use the ... notation so I thought at a glance that it was an external web site!).  OK - so then we can just delete everything from here and redirect it to Hertz.  I'll get on to that later today.  SteveBaker 17:00, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm - you're right - we already did this at least once before.  Well, Kilohertz, Megahertz, Gigahertz and Petahertz all link to Hertz - it would be ludicrous for Terahertz not to point there too.  We're on strong ground here.  Let's just keep reverting if anyone tries to put back that old article. SteveBaker 19:43, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well I strongly disagree. A while ago I did clicked on a link to terahertz expecting to find an informative article on the subject. Instead, it redirected me to Hertz, an article only has a few sentences on terahertz. It took me several minutes to find the correct article, Terahertz radiation.  "Terahertz" is the term used for this type of radiation,  in addition to the frequency, I think this is because for a long time it was an unused part of the spectrum and no other name was adopted as its use became more prevalent (other areas of the EM spectrum have different names, light, x-rays, microwaves, radio waves, gamma rays, etc). The only name for this type of radiation is "terahertz" or the less common "T-Rays". Danski14(talk) 21:20, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

message: This so-called article is a perfect example of why Wikipedia is justly denigrated. In my opinion it is a complete and utter mess. Leiris is one of my favourite writers in any language. His books are not easily understood, but then neither are those of Yeats or Eliot. Glossaire j'y serre mes gloses isn't even mentioned, nor Vol. IV of La règle du jeu.
