Talk:Eisner Awards

message: Why is this article in the plural?  Wiki-style dictates that articles should never be in the plural unless it's unavoidable (e.g. pants).  Articles similar to this are in the singular (e.g. Academy Award, not "Academy Awards").  Anyone who is a big contributor to this article should think about moving it and changing the tense to singular.  If no one does, I'll try to remember to do it in a few days, unless someone can provide a compelling reason why it should stay in the plural. — Frecklefoot | Talk 14:06, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Swedish phonology/Archive 1

message: When I did my edits, I just fixed the formatting - I apologize if I accidentally introduced any errors.  I actually don't know much about the language, but in reading the article I noticed that it was asking someone to do an IPA transcription (which I do know how to do).
Anyway, I'll fix the phonetics.  "put" for short 'a' should be "putt" instead.  That's clearly a typo.  Also, I don't agree with "weird" as being a model for IPA /e/.  At least in American English, the sound in "weird" is /i/, not /e/.  The closest sound to /e/ (at least in American English) is the 'ai' in "pail", as vowels preceding 'l' in English tend to automatically un-diphthongize.  But I realize that in British RP the sound may be different...
ADDENDUM: I've clarified that pronunciations are for General American and not (for instance) RP.
ADDENDUM: I think the confusion over using "marsh" (not my idea!) as the English equivalent for 'sj' is that in most U.S. pronunciations - especially those using a retroflex 'r', as in the Texan dialect - the sequence 'rsh' gives a curvature to the tongue that creates a sound more similar to the 'sj' sound than anything else in English.  In other words, it's a poor approximation that doesn't work for non-rhotic English dialects like RP and ENE/NY/Coastal Southern American.
Dave 06:14, Feb 4, 2005 (UTC)
Swedish pronounciation is similarly differentiated as that of English, given the differences between Australian, American, RP, and not to forget Indian English. I think the best thing we Swedish speakers can do, is to ensure that the IPA transcriptions are right, then it's your call as English speakers to make further transcriptions to English.;-) --Johan Magnus 12:07, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Photovoltaic cell

message: When photovoltaic cells have to be replaced, the silicon can be reused. Only the coating materials need to be renewed.
Photovoltaic cells are often made from refined silicon that is a by-product of semiconductor production. The limited supply of such relatively cheap by-product is an often-overlooked obstacle to the widespread production of photovoltaic cells.

Talk:Roux-Ga-Roux

message: Sorry if the roux-ga-roux story doesn't meet your definition of "legend".  However, the roux-ga-roux story is apparently something that exists at least in some form or another.  From the two references I found, I see absolutely no reason to suspect that they were both set up by some prankster or someone trying to somehow fool the public.
Whether it is fakelore or folklore, people will probably come across it, and will quite possibly try to find more information on it here on Wikipedia.  There is no reason not to have an entry on it that at least provides what little information we have so far found on the subject.
As for being thin-skinned, I invite you to take a look at another article I initiated, the Caganer.  Since I started that article, it has been edited significantly.  Quite frankly, I welcomed those edits and additions because they improved the article.  You, on the other hand, seem to like making changes that simply change articles to fit your personal tastes.  
Granted, some of your changes were warranted, such as correcting some capitalization, and such.  However, other changes were unnecessary.  While I expect articles to be edited, seemingly random, unnecessary changes are irritating, both to myself, and every other reasonable person participating in Wikipedia.  Obviously, I can't stop you from editing, but I strongly suspect you are going to become rather unpopular here if you continue these kind of activities.  If you enjoy spending your time irritating others, then go ahead and waste your life as you see fit.

Talk:Paul Kelly (criminal)

message: Regarding your the recent edits on this article I should point out that Jay Robert Nash's Encyclopedia of World Crime, as well as Robert J. Kelly's Encyclopedia of Organized Crime, state conflicting dates for Paul Kelly as 1871 and 1859 respectivly. While the gravesite link I listed is, I believe, a valid source it is also one which casts doubt if the grave is the actual grave of Paul Kelly. Also the removed links of Razor Riley and James Ellison, prominent gunmen of the early 1900s, as well as those of existing articles of gunmen Richie Fitzpatrick and Johnny Spanish, and the removal of much of the former text including the details of the Fourth Ward election and assasination attempt leading to the closing of the New Brighton club, I feel are of particular importance to the article. I certainly greatly appreciate the recent edits however I would ask that further major edits be first discussed on the Discussion page before hand. Thank you. 209.213.71.78 15:02, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: "Below, with the rank of colonel, was one of the few members of Hitler's entourage to continually serve in a close capacity for so many years."
Completely wrong. Hitler's inner circle didn't change much during the war - by and large, the adjutants, the secretaries and the manservants kept their jobs throughout the war, as did Jodl and Keitel in the OKW. All Hitler biographers note that he was averse to changes in his personal surroundings. (With the army leadership and the generals and field marshals it's another story, but these men did not "serve in a close capacity".)2A02:AA1:1612:5ECF:BD64:F37C:61E6:D2F9 (talk) 18:53, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Vilnius/Archive 3

message: I think there are several very wrong assumptions here, Antituteisas. The first one is that we at Wikipedia want to entertain any particular (national or otherwise) POV. The second one is that you have to fight in order to get one or another version accepted, while editing is actually open to anyone here. You have brought a lot of good new information whcih is not in the article so far. I would suggets that instead of replacing we add your information. Where there appears to be a dispute, the best approach is not to choose the "Polish", the "Lithuanian" or whatever version but to show and explain what the dispute is. In this fashion the article gains in credibility and in scope. Refdoc 11:06, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

We had the discussions only among Germans about the correct naming (so, comparatively few comments like 'nazi' or 'fascist') and it's still 'Wilna' though you should know that 'Vilnius' is adequately used today in Germany and I hope for the day to come we could just forget about the whole history stuff and use the siuolaikiniai name. but it was interesting to read that the fight between Polish and Lithuanians about the "true" history of Vilnius is so fierce and unrespectful - tells a lot about people's understanding...

text: I think this rubbish fight has some historic roots: lithuanian nation has experienced several genocides (1831, 1864, 1939, 1945, etc., 40 years of language prohibition, etc.), and Vilnius land was maybe the most important theatre of those historic events, so actually all the issues about Vilnius are very painful to most of lithuanians - this nation had experienced oppression comparable even to that suffered by jews.

I support the merging since all of the articles mentioned are not much more than stubs. Later, when there is (hopefully) more material the finer details might again be split, but for now, merging is the best alternative. As for the naming of the new article I don't have any strong opinions. I believe the term phoniatrics is used at least in the scandinavian countries in respective form of each of their own languages.
