Talk:Heteroptera

message: It's definitely unfortunate that so many of the pages already created refer to "Heteroptera" given that use of the name is technically a violation of the accepted Linnaean system - the name "Heteroptera" primarily persists because of outdated literature sources, and in modern use only among non-Linnaean classifications (i.e., classifications where clades are given names, but there are no ranks). The reason it can't be used should be clear: you can't have a Suborder that ends in "-ptera", as that is the accepted ending for the Linnaean rank of Order. So, again, while you'll still see some resources using "Heteroptera", you'll note that they are generally in rankless schemes, such as the Tree of Life website (TOL Heteroptera). The traditional ending for Suborder names within the hemipteroids is "-rrhyncha", and the one used by many Hemipterists lately is "Prosorrhyncha" (proposed in 1995). You can Google it to see that has been accepted and it is still in use (e.g., Auchenorrhyncha website). It isn't going to be popular, but it is authoritative.Dyanega 01:06, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Nachman Bulman

message: However, in terms of religious ideology Rabbi Bulman chose to follow and be identified with Agudath Israel of America, one of Haredi Judaism's largest movements.
While Agudah would no doubt like to think so, this is, I think, an oversimplification, if not an outright distortion; Rabbi Bulman didn't fit cleanly into any established ideological camp. Can we get a more nuanced description? Shmuel 19:01, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: I would never presume to know what Rav Bulman z"l was thinking, and he was certainly not a follower. But, I remember that he associated himself with Ger, dressed like a Gerrer Hasid and when he wore a hat on Shabbos or other yamei tovim, he wore his spodik. (Word around Ohr Somayach was that he didn't wear it in front of the students because he didn't want some crazy baal teshuvah to go out and buy himself a $1000 spodik.) I remember when everyone was scared to say anything against smoking out of respect for Rav Kaduri and Dayan Fischer, he gave a long fire and brimstone speech about it calling smokers all kinds of names. My favorite line was when he said, "People accuse us of brain washing their kids and they don't take one minute to realize some brains need washing. They are filthy!" That is from memory (it was Shabbos) but it is pretty close to exactly what he said. I miss him. 09:09, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

message: The extended quote in the History subsection 1830 doesn’t seem to add much in the way of information to the article. Around half of the quote is focussed on West Woodhay, and so is almost certainly inappropriate for this article. The quote in general feels very much like travel writing in a not particularly helpful style for this article - does the reader really need to know it was “dark” and there was “mild weather” on one specific night of the year in 1830?

Talk:Thomas Baker (artist)

message: CJP/
My Grandmother Annie Edith Baker stated her Grandfather was Thomas Baker the artist.
Annie appears on the 1891 Census Piece RG12/2380 for Birmingham.
Her father is listed as Thomas Baker Photographer. Note the census does not show this as Baker-Smith. Whether the name indicates legitimacy or pride I do not know. Thomas (Jr) had 6 daughters and one son who died in the war of 1914 childless.
Annie married William Priest a photographer's assistant per the 1891 census RG12/2401. He became an engineer for Birmingham city. 
Perhaps a co-incidence but William Priest had daughters from a previous marriage and one of them married a Smith.
I placed the first Tomas Baker(Artist) page on Wikipedia a few years ago before the disambiguation removed the history. That note had links to art gallery sites showing his work. I also noted the date of death varies between sources as 1869 or 1964,

Talk:Politionele acties

message: After editing the articles Suharto and History of Indonesia and several others, I believe an effort needs to be made to refine existing articles on historical events in Indonesia, and to correct the omissions on English Wikipedia by creating new articles on major events/periods in Indonesian history (e.g. Pre-colonial, Colonial, Post-Independence, Confrontation, 65-66 Civil War etc.).
This would allow the article History of Indonesia be a more general summary-style page (for those who want a broad overview of the area's history), and allow those who wish for greater depth to examine the articles on historical eras/events. That is, those who wish to examine Indonesia under Sukarno could look at a Post-Independence Era page, without being burdened by having to navigate stuff on the Majapahit Empire.
I've started some work, creating an outline (as well as a template that can be applied to History of Indonesia related pages) that can be seen here: Template:History of Indonesia. For an idea of what I believe the target for quality and organization, please take a peek at History of Russia.
I understand this is a long task, and that no one person could be/should be in charge of all this. (Especially not me, since being born/raised in the United States, the sources I have tend to give the buleh view of things.) So I am posting this message on applicable Talk pages, and ask that folks think it over, and if possible offer any help. Especially appreciated would be any folks who could streamline the process by translating related Wikipedia Indonesia articles into English.

message: The erasure codes page mentions only 2 other optimal codes. Parity and Reed Soloman codes are restricted to certain parameters (and RS codes are much more computationally intensive). So don't simply delete this page !
If you want to merge the two articles, I'd suggest that the first paragraph of the article  express this idea (namely extrapolation in linear systems over finite fields) and subsequent paragraphs relate each of the schemes to this idea (mentioning size of finite field and number of dimensions). Writing the article this way will be VERY insightful, but I can only relate the parity scheme to this one, so don't ask me.
