thread_title:  Justification for Revert 

message: It's not a huge deal - I just didn't have time to deal with it - here's a sample of text I find in need of work (the bold highlights the issues such as the tense change - it changes halfway through):
"In 1978 the Air Force submitted a proposal to the Carter Administration to close the base, as the technology was largely obsolete due to satellite technology. It was determined to keep it operating until the new facility at Riverhead was operational.
The Air Force officially shuts down its radar operations on July 1, 1980 after a new radar system operated by the FAA was made operational in Riverhead, NY that could handle civilian and air defense requirements, making the SAGE system was redundant. Considering its size, removing the huge antenna was problematic at best so it was "abandoned in place", with its controlling motors and electronics removed and allowed to move with the wind to prevent it being torn off its base in a storm."
Again, not a big deal but worth adding a tag for since similar errors can be found throughout the article. The article is actually very informative and on the whole well written. It's not a big deal to have corrections made to an article you contributed to; that's the whole point of Wikipedia (a quote from the contributing to Wikipedia page - "Don't be surprised if other people edit "your" pages to adapt them to our policies. It's OK to learn as you go along"). I'm sorry if anyone found the tag upsetting but I believe it should remain. Nrbelex (talk)  01:46, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Think different

message: This was a 2012 Internet ad based on the "1984" Super Bowl ad for Apple where a Big Brother-like figure preaching about the glories of conformity appears to be a parody of Bill Gates, and his megascreen image is destroyed by a hammer throwing rebel and the caption was "Think Different".
In the 2012 parody, the image was Hillary Clinton and the caption was "Vote Different".
This obviously was in support of the candidacy of Barack Obama, but was not an official part of his campaign, but was so effective I would suggest it should perhaps be included here.  Vote Different 2600:1004:B16A:25A3:0:4D:E5C0:9801 (talk) 21:54, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

message: Quoting current first paragraph: 
Android Lust is the vision of its sole creator, Shikhee. Born in Bangladesh, schooled in England and in the United States, Shikhee's background is as varied as the music she creates: running the emotional gamut from loss to discovery, from regret to carnivorous loathing. Borrowing elements from a variety of styles Android Lust presents a blend of electronic rock music that is dark, icy, and fiercely emotional.

:Both pregnancy and childbirth are extremely detrimental to the health and longevity of women. Pregnancy increases a woman’s caloric intake requirements
I'd like to note that there's some dispute over just how much your energy intake affects your longevity.  Aubrey de Grey recently wrote a paper that casts doubt on the notion that eating fewer Calories will significantly prolong you.  At the very least, the article should explain the link between calories and ageing, for those who are unfamiliar with the notion. —RadRafe 04:00, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Comment

message: From the article:
"The grandmother hypothesis is meant to explain why menopause, rare in mammal species, arose in human evolution"
In actuality, the Grandmother Hypothesis purports to explain why menopause had been maintained, not why it arose.  Mid-life infertility occurs because female animals run out of oocytes.  It happens among any number of species.  The question is, why, when human lifespans increased and other aspects of senescence began to occur later in life, did reproductive senescence not keep pace?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.60.1.105 (talk) 19:51, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Vfd

message: Dear all,
we were not involved in a vote in 2005 and do not accept the merging of Sound Branding into Acoustic Branding. We are a serious company that create sounds for brands. The term "Sound Branding" is used by major Sound Branding companies including Sonar Brand And Music, Meta Design  and us, GROVES Sound Branding.
Our founder, John Groves, is widely accepted as an International pioneer of Sound Branding and his thoughts on the terminology are available under:
*Sound Branding - a definition by John Groves.
It is our belief that a common terminology will eventually evolve and that in the meantime all terms - including Sonic Branding and Audio Branding - should be given an equal chance. Making Acoustic Branding a key term in Wikepedia would be tantamount to Knowledge  Branding by favouring a terminology that may give a particular company a competitive edge, which is not the philosophy of Wikepedia. 
I would be very grateful if you would take this into consideration and allow the knowledge on the Sound of a Brand be communicated as such. --Groves Hamburg 11:41, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Acoustic branding - redirect 

message: An unknown user writes there is an edit war between ordinary editors and Groves Hamburg? Well one of your "ordinary editors" might just be working for a branding agency - and the other bloke is probably his leader. Please...
So, to stay real, here´s how I see it:
Sound:
The generic term for everything hearable - be it music, sound effects, ambient noise or the human voice. Although it is all encompassing, it suggests the source and the event itself, as opposed to the listening or hearing perspective.
Audio:
The electronic reproduction of sound, especialy recorded.
Acoustic:
The physical properties of a sound. Properties of a room , a space or an instrument. Can mean with out the aid of amplification
Sonic:
The waves themselves - the qualities of sound referring its frequencies. e.g. bats, Concord as supersonic and medical Ultra-sonic machines.
Auditory / Auditive:
Hearable as a connotation from “Listening”. The structure of sound from the recipient perspective
This is what we read - and it makes sense: "SOUND" is the word you're looking for!

Talk:International Socialist Organisation (New Zealand)

message: This group is currently categorised as a New Zealand political party. Is that appropriate? As I understand the ISO are a political advocacy / protest group, but are not a proper political party. -- FP 04:29, Apr 13, 2005 (UTC)
:It may, perhaps, depend on one's definition. On the one hand, the ISO (in New Zealand, anyway) rejects Parliament as a possible route to power, and so it the group doesn't contest elections like most parties try to. On the other hand, I believe that it does nevertheless consider itself a workers' party in the revolutionary, mass movement sense. The "About" page at the ISO(NZ)'s official website, in the final paragraph, talks of the need for a "revolutionary socialist party", and says that the ISO is "beginning to build such a party". Personally, I would say that this is enough to include them in the them in the Political Parties in New Zealand category, but I could be mistaken. -- Vardion 05:39, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
