Wikipedia talk:Introduction (historical)/3/Template

message: What is this template? And if it is a template why is it only used on one page?
This template contains the text of Wikipedia:Introduction 3 part of a three page introduction Introduction, Introduction 2 and Introduction 3. New editors are encouraged to edit the first page to practice editing, but not Introduction 3. However, they often do click edit and the name of this template and the wikilink is all they see:
:
This encourages them to not practice on this page but to move on to a sandbox. as directed on Introduction 2. 
However, people often edit this page anyway (usually some kind of mistake or vandalism). This template makes it easy to restore the page to its preferred state because the new users don't know how to find the template page. The User:Sandbot enforces the introduction every 30 minutes so that if editors do not notice the vandalism right away it gets fixed automatically.

thread_title:  What is this template 

message: I have a small suggestion. Can the link text
:Before you continue, you might like to create your own username.
be changed to just
:Before you continue, you might like to create your own username.
Then it would also work for people browsing from the secure server. (The plainlinks  becomes unnecessary with that style). Not sure why these hard to find templates needed to be fully protected but anyhoo. • Anakin (talk) 14:29, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

message: when the main article, Stilt house gets so large it needs to be split, then maybe this deserves it's own entry.  Or maybe when this is more than a stub.  As is, it's an unknown foriegn word in an english encyclopedia that has one sentence.  That is not what an independent article should be.
:Pang uk in Tai O are only one of the many kinds of stilt houses, and the article was started at pang uk. While all kinds of stilt houses are stilt houses, they have different history and have different forms to cope with different landscapes. You won't start television set and monitor, or calculator and abacus, as one article, although they may look alike, or have similar functions. Please keep the two articles as they were until a settlement through discussion. Many thanks.  — Instantnood 16:56, May 14, 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  2005 comments 

message: The current edition of this article is both fully referenced and apolitical. It details both the highs and lows of Mrs. Morden's career. Your assertion that I have edited this article to gain a political advantage is ludicrous. Everything I have written is properly backed up by reputable external sources. On the contrary, I rather suspect it is you who is editing this article for political advantage. I strongly assert that you are either an employee of Mrs. Morden or the Labour Party. This article is NOT an on-line CV, but an encyclopaedic piece detailing the life and career of a sitting Member of Parliament. While you may find sections of this page politically and/or electorally embarrassing/damaging, this does not detract from their fundamental truth. The section detailing Mrs Morden's political career contains the highlights from a rather bland period in office. These include her expenses returns from 2007/2008, the Christchurch Road Post Office episode and her selection as a PPC by an all-women shortlist. Believe me, if I could find anything else to write about this MP I would. Unfortunately, Mrs. Morden seems content to stay off the political radar.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.6.52.193 (talk) 11:54, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

message: {I work for the Houston Chronicle]
While the statements regarding Mike Ward are accurate and factual, the beginning of the section seems to be less objective and relies on a single complaintant with unsubstantiated hyperbole solidifying by a self-generated article.  
Suggesting the statements under Criticism remove the following:
[The Houston Chronicle has faced significant challenges with its journalistic integrity. In 2020, the paper faced allegations of publishing articles without properly adhering to its own ethics policy, especially in regards to contacting subjects before publishing negative portrayals. There were also claims suggesting retaliation against individuals for not purchasing advertisements.Did Houston Chronicle Write a Hit Piece for Not Buying Ads?, DICK LAW FIRM, 31-Oct-2020 This trust was further eroded.]
And begin with "In 2018 the Houston Chronicle retracted eight articles after it was revealed they were significantly based on sources whose existence could not be verified. . . . with the remainder of the section remaining as is.

message: To continue correcting misinformation about Peter, we have to stop reverting corrections regarding his birth name. He was NOT born "Petrus" Thomas Ratajczyk, but in fact just "Peter Thomas Ratajczyk." This confusion has likely been fueled because of Peter's past in humoring interviewers and playing around with his ethnicity (pretending to be Icelandic or Russian, for example).

thread_title:  Peter's birth name was not "Petrus" 

message: The article says Peter had Russian ancestry, with a link too some sketchy interview.
His ancestry is well researched, ant his paternal line is pure Polish. His father was Peter (Piotr) Ratajczyk, his paternal grandfather was Joseph (Józef) Ratajczyk and his paternal grandmother was Frances (Franciszka) Kacierowska Ratajczyk.
There are both site and facebook page ran by his family.
They both state that "His father was of Polish descent, and his mother was of Scottish-Irish and Italian ancestry." and "He wasn’t Icelandic but had the greatest affection for the region, culture & history. He’s actually Polish, Italian, and a little bit Irish, English."
All of the mentions about Icelandic and Russian ancestry is either jokes by Peter, or misleading information that should be removed. Napalminmyveins (talk) 23:17, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Commodore Plus/4

message: It wasn't a difference in memory map that solely accounted for the big difference in BASIC memory between the 64 and the Plus/4. The major difference is that the Plus/4 BASIC used bank switching to access the RAM "under" the ROM. Using the same technique, the 64 BASIC could have made another 12K available. And with greater difficulty, another 12K on top of that. The Plus/4's memory map is definitely a help, though. Mirror Vax 07:14, 15 May 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Meniscus (liquid)

message: Pictures need re-drawing
These are awful pictures to illustrate a meniscus!  The curve up or down at the circular edges of the container are precisely that --- edge effects.  The two menuscuses (sorry, don't know the Latin plural) should be drawn largely horizontal, with curvature confined to the ends.  (The understanding is that this represents a cross-section through the liquid and its container.)  I'd do it myself except that I don't have the expertise.

message: I know this was a couple of weeks ago, but you removed an expert tag from Meniscus.  Forgive me if I'm wrong here, but it seems to me that an expert is in fact needed.  Perhaps we are working from different definitions of expert here. I was hoping to expand this article to include much of the mathematics behind the meniscus, which currently can't be found anywhere on wikipedia; all the article does is give a basic definition.  Perhaps you could assist with this expansion? Or perhaps there was something wrong with the way I tagged the article?  Either way, this article definitely needs the assistance of someone besides myself- I've gotten through DiffEQ (barely) but I'm a lot further behind on Physics, and really don't know this stuff well enough to write an article on it.

replies: text: Yes, Ninja from what I understand, the "expert" tag is used where an article is in immediate need of an expert on that subject because there is something technically wrong about the article or that it is in some way presenting misinformation.  I read the article, and it seems to be correctly presented.  As for a wish to see “the mathematics behind the meniscus” included in the article, the talk page is good for those kind of requests.
