message: "The album cover, depicting cut-out figures falling from buildings as if they were committing suicide."
To me they represent one figure jumping across (success) and one figure falling (failure). To say they represent suicide is too much in my opinion. I will edit the text to remove the reference to suicide. I will also add a source that explains that the art is actually a photo of a sculpture. I think too many commentators seek to find references to suicide in Smith's work, given the tragic and mysterious way in which he passed away.--14.8.68.2 (talk) 00:57, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Dotted I (Cyrillic)

message: I've heard the Ukrainian I is sometimes used to distinguish world (мир) from peace (мір), both transliterated as "mir" in English. Is this true or a wild fantasy? (Ex: http://horizon.bloghouse.net/archives/000457.html)
: Just opposite system. These are Russian pre-1917/1918 rules for distinguishing и/i:
:: (a) write "i" before all vowels and before semivowel "й"
:: (b) write "и" before consonants and as the last letter of a word
:: (c) exception 1: write "и" before (semi)vowels in compound words (пятиакровый: пяти+акровый, five-acre)
:: (d) exception 2: write "и" in "миръ" for "peace, tranquility, concord, union", and "i" in "мiръ" for "world, universe, local community, commons, society, laity", with all derived words. -- Kcmamu 09:40, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.
*Comment it seems that "soft-dotted" is a technical term used in Unicode discussions, see http://unicode.org/review/pr-11.html (linked from http://unicode.org/review/resolved-pri.html ).  Although this character does indeed have the "soft-dotted" property (as does the Spanish letter "i" among others), do we need to disambiguate it from some non-soft-dotted Cyrillic "i"?  Apparently not, since the only other "i"-like characters are Ї, which is at Yi (Cyrillic), and Palochka. Note, there is no article at Soft-dotted i, so already the "(Cyrillic)" in parentheses is a problematic way to disambiguate.  So, I'd be inclined to support the move back to the "Dotted i" or "Dotted I" title, but would like to hear User:verdy p first. — P.T. Aufrette (talk) 18:28, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Conversational Monitor System

message: I have no idea why Unix is mentioned here.  The definition of computing, much less operating systems, is so different between mainframes, minis, and PCs, there's no use in comparing them.  The article sounds like Unix users should switch to CMS!
Since I haven't used CMS (although I've used other mainframe JCLs), I'll wait for someone else to clean this up first.  If no one does, I'll chop it out myself after a couple of days.  -- A D Monroe III 18:17, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The comparison to UNIX is perfectly reasonable, IMHO.  The original CMS was developed to provide a terminal shell for the underlying kernel (CP-40, CP-67, VM/370-CP).  The fact that CMS could also run as a single-user standalone operating system, on a real IBM S/360, was convenient but not really the goal. Dave Tuttle 21:23, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Can anyone else verify or provide specifics - I recall Mr. Bogataj
doing an American Express credit card commercial many years ago. It
was along the lines of 'You probably don't know my name, but you've 
seen me many times'. Then it cuts to 'fall' footage. Then his name 
is 'embossed' on an AmEx card one letter at a time. The commercial 
was how I first learned his real name - it had bothered me for years
that I recognized many events used as the 'thrill of victory', but
did not know who the 'agony of defeat' was!
I can't prove this claim; perhaps others can.

message: @Elizium23, why did you revert the edit? This is how I know it in English grammar. "Low" in the original sentence acts as a noun. Therefore, it cannot have an adverb modifying it. Adverbs only modify verbs, adjectives and other adverbs as far as I know. It also would make "an" obsolete as what follows it isn't a noun or noun phrase. My revision changes "low" to an adjective and therefore, having "abnormally" before it makes it grammatically correct and does not at all affect the original message.

Talk:Expansion

message: I'm removing the reference to squelch from the audio engineering reference.  Analog audio expansion and squelch are separate concepts.  An expansion circuit is typically a feed forward circuit, which means it uses the level of the input signal to determine the level of the output - it's continuous in nature.  A squelch circuit uses a completely independent input (usually the strength of the received modulation source) to mute/un-mute the output, which is discreet in nature. --Babar77 (talk) 05:06, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Marine Aerial Navigator insignia

message: I'm sorry I identified this badge as "the same" as the previous Naval Aviation Observer (Navigation) wings; the information identifying this as the same badge came from Appendix 20 to United States Naval Aviation 1910–1995 published by the Naval Historical Center; this is generally a reliable source. By the way the wings pictured in the linked article Naval Navigation Observer Badge are non-standard as the standard--BuPers Circular Letter 88-45 of 31 March 1945--called for the compass rose in the center of the silver circle to be in gold. I am attempting to document my sources in the discussion pages on some of these insignia because they sometimes appear to conflict with information provided by other editors.
I changed the last line because the 2 MOSes that Marine Aerial Navigators serve in are sequential MOSes, i.e. after designation as an Aerial Navigator they serve in MOS 7371 while undergoing aircraft model-specific training and move into MOS 7372 upon completion of their training.
