message: I am not sure that the author of this piece understands what legacy means.
Legacy means left over. Legacy is not inherently bad, as this article implies, but could contribute to problems if circumstances change.
A legacy system could quite happily go on performing adequately for ever. It is external influences that make legacy a problem, such as requiring a change to the system, or being no longer able to support the infrastructure that it requires.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.244.190.66 (talk) 13:56, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Sigh. Is That Good Enough on The Birdwatching Issue?

message: Give them all a break, lad.
Now my bit on birdwatching: it's fair to say that BSP are fairly eccentric people. But they've also played it up to it a massive amount to fit the ideal created by Roy Wilkinson. As such: yes, they like reading, czech stuff and outdoor things. But (and the only source myself and sui have is that we both go to a lot of their gigs and *namedrop* speak to the band quite a lot) Noble is the only one that likes birdwatching. The others just like the great outdoors. For example Neil (sorry, "Hamilton Wilkinson") walked the 200 miles from Leeds to Cumbria a week before xmas 2004 after a gig, sleeping outdoors. But he couldn't care about the woodpeckers he saw on the way.
Oh, and the band really do hate that photo. Whether it matters or not. Saltywater knows his stuff I'm whether we want him to or not...
Me677 08:33, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course, it's well possible, as with any band, that anything they say is part of a manufactured persona. But, on the other hand, if such details are reported at face value in multiple mainstream sources , that information has to be taken as valid. Even if you know better from personal experience, that experience counts as original research and isn't admissible material. Likewise, see the guidelines on verifiability and reliable sources. The part about Personal websites as secondary sources makes it especially clear that fan sites are not to be viewed as credible sources. Tearlach 10:58, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

message: It seems to me that the criticism from proponents of corporate interests, GM etc is unfair and prejudiced, and lacking in scientific basis. 51.148.176.21 (talk) 20:48, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: How exactly does this section's concern apply to the criticisms of Michael Specter, Keith Kloor, Stewart Brand, Birendra Nayak? These are investigative journalists and writers, who themselves are no friend of corporate America. They lodge complaints against Shiva based on her pseudoscientific evidence-base, her plagiarism, and her unethical claims. Hardly "corporate interests." Brand, for example, was a fixture in the hippie circles of the 60s and 70s, engaging in Acid Tests, and hung out with Ken Kesey. How exactly is this guy a picture of "corporate interests?" He's just not an extremist. if that makes him a corporatist, then basically everyone but Shiva is, too. — Shibbolethink (♔ ♕) 21:58, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

message: ‘While MySpell uses 8-bit ASCII character encoding, Hunspell can use Unicode UTF-8-encoded dictionaries.’ I have the following issues with this statement:
*Actually, ASCII is a 7-bit encoding. It is, however, a very frequent error made by many people that assume that ASCII and various 8-bit encodings (usually for Western European languages, like ISO 8859-1, 5ISO 8859-15, and Windows-1252) are identical.
*It is true that ASCII is bit-for-bit compatible with most 8-bit encodings currently in usage (ISO 8859 family, Windows ‘ANSI’, DOS (MS ‘OEM’)) as far as the common characters are concerned (0x20–0x7F), but so it is with UTF-8 (and UTF-7, and numerous legacy multibyte encodings used for Asian languages). It is not compatible with IBM’s 8-bit family of EBCDIC encodings.

Talk:Traditional square dance

message: Where are these communities in the U.S. and Canada that have traditional square dances?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.190.166.162 (talk) 16:34, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Most of them don't have a Web presence. The dances tend to be in rural areas, frequented by locals who aren't necessarily looking for new dancers from outside the community (though they're likely to be polite to outsiders). I'm not sure a Wikipedia article is the right place for a detailed directory of local dances, but I'll look for some Web mentions of trad square dances and add links here if I find any good ones. Tparkes 18:05, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

text: I've added several links to sources of trad square dance information. I plan to expand this stub into a full-scale article as time permits. The main challenge is sourcing: I've read extensively on the subject (as well as talked with many practitioners over the years, and practitioned more than a bit myself), but Wikipedia requires statements to be sourced, and many of my key books and magazines are in dead storage. I know what I want to say, and I have backup for the statements that are most likely to be questioned, but I can't lay my hand on chapter and verse at the moment. I'm looking forward to working on this, as most of what's readily available in print and on the Web about square dance history is total fabrication (as any real folklorist will tell you). It's not necessarily false, but there's no proof that it's true. Tparkes 17:02, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
