Talk:Fork-tailed drongo

message: ...pratically all paragraphs were rephrased. Earwig's Copyvio Detector points to 0%, thank you! The Blue Rider  20:46, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Good. One problem now is that you changed the meaning of many sentences. For example, you changed "born without feathers" to "When young, they lack feathers", which is not precise (young birds of course have feathers, except directly after hatching"). You changed "being the last heard at dusk" to "heard until dusk", but this implies that they stop when dusk arrives, which is not the case – many birds are very vocal during dusk. You change "Adolescent birds are dark brown" to "During adolescence, their appearance transitions to", implying that the changes take place when they already reached adulthood, which is not the case. You change "robust" to "sturdy", but in zoology, "robust" means "strongly built" or simply "thick", while "sturdy" has a completely different meaning. These cases did immediately catch my eye, but there might be more. Jens Lallensack (talk) 22:53, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text:  Ok...fixed. The Blue Rider  22:58, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: You are too fast. Writing a good article takes some time and patience. You just reverted to the old version, which was not ideal either (because of the paraphrasing, but there are other issues). Birds are not "born", they "hatch". "Adolescence fork-tailed drongos" should be "Adult fork-tailed drongos". "And being the last heard at dusk" has the paraphrasing problem again; you could write something like "are amongst the last birds to sing during the evening". Jens Lallensack (talk) 23:04, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text:  I didn't just revert to the old version. I've worked on this article for months so I don't understand your comment... Birds can be born...it's not adult fork-tailed drongos its reffering to juveniles...not many ways to rephrase, nevertheless, I tried to change one word or too. The Blue Rider  23:16, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Moscow Rizhsky railway station

message: I see that per the historical postcards, "Gare Vindau" translates to "Ventspils Station" or more properly the historical "Windau", not Rīga. I checked my Baedeker's Russia 1914, and it's listed as 7 (of 9) stations: "Windau Station (Виндавскій вокзалъ), near the Krestovskaya Zastava, for Ryezhitza (Wirballen), Riga, and Windau — Tramways 17 & 19." I expect it's "Rīga" station now (per the information on the picture of the station today) because there's no longer any train through to the port of Ventspils.

text: Sorry for the rollbacking, I've pressed wrong button.. I don't think we need to change the name to Rizhsky Station or Riga Station, since in Russia there are two different terms, станция (station) and вокзал (rail terminal). The latter term might be used for big stations, but the quality distinction between the two types of stations is important, and Rizhsky Station is problematic from the point of view of Russian language (станция is feminine, while Rizhsky is masculine), and Riga Station strongly implicates it is situated in Riga.

Talk:Salty's Lighthouse

message: I've rewritten the page again, to try and make a more detailed description of the show in its own right, and to give the Tugs section some context about that series (so it doesn't completely rely on previous knowledge of the show). I've left the voice cast bit alone for now, but I want to change it because I'm still not sure about all of them (there are a lot of actors put on there who aren't in the show's credits at all.)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I actually agree with the today's "extracted" edit to the definition, now that I think about it. Although most references and teachers will tell the bunkai are "encoded". In traditional dojos of my style (shito-ryu) the bunkai are taught simultaneously or, sometimes, before the kata, and appear to have been passed down with the recent (70-100 years old) kata unchanged since the kata creation, but there are quite a few ancient forms where, logically thinking, there is little chance of faithful passage and more chance of religions or spiritual movements rather than pure encoded fighting applications. On the other hand.... let's find a reference that agrees with this thought. Like, when someone actually sits down and creates the much-needed in-place citations. --Cubbi 17:00, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Encoded or Extracted? 

message: According to Shoshin Nagamine in Essences of Okinawan Karate Do, "There are as many theories concerning the origins and execution of the kata as there are schools of karate."  Is this a good enough reference?

Talk:Patrick Lefevere

message: PL hàd as a matter of fact some succes in the Vuelta with three victories of Tony Rominger, who also once took the second place in the tour. There was also Abraham Olano, who was promising in stage races, and Pavel Tonkov. Also, Frank Vandenbroucke once won Paris-Nice - although that's a minor stage race. With Tom Steels, Tom Boonen, Johan Museeuw, Richard Virenque and Stefano Zanini, there he also had good results in sprints and other stages of the tour the France. It is certainly true that PL seldom focussed on the tour, but to say that there was no succes whatsoever is wrong, imo. --Selach 16:04, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Comment

message: The text regarding the name of the pub in the 1986 film 'Withnail & I' implied that this was the pub used in the film.
:> In the 1986 film Withnail & I it is called The "Mother Black Cap"
The Black Cap wasn't the pub featured in exterior shots of the movie (that pub was at 41 Tavistock Crescent), and the pub in the movie had a different name. So it's questionable whether the possible combination of The Black Cap with that of another pub is factual enough to be included. Even the source material says it is "presumably" a combination of the two.
