Talk:Go-fast boat

message: Is the Go-fast boat a "style of boat" or a model made by a particular manufacturer? -- SGBailey 23:42 Jan 25, 2003 (UTC)
:A classification, like frigate, yacht, or dinghy.
This isn't a law enforcement article, so I have removed it from that catagory. surely, if we were to put this into law enforcement, then we should put in all the car makes that are sometimes used as getaway vehicles or police cars?--SGGH 16:34, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Add The OA

message: Here is a prime example of the stupidity of someone changing my hard work and screwing things up by labelling Irene Jacob as a "French" actress. Really? Ms. Jacob calls herself Swiss, has lived there since she was in diapers, and still does. STOP this self appointed GOD dictum on nationality. The article states where she was born, where she lived, worked etc. Let the reader decide her nationality, IF THAT IS OF IMPORTANCE TO HER PERFORMANCE AS AN ACTRESS. Similarly, you idiots, Bronko Nagurski was born in CANADA. Neither YOU nor I have the right to change his birthright. Is Cary Grant an American? Is Marcel Duchamp an American? Is Man Ray a Frenchman? He lived there almost all his life and is buried there. - Is Matthew Perry a Canadian? Is James Cameron an American? Is Audrey Hepburn Dutch, Belgian, English, American, or Swiss?  Is Albert Einstein German? Swiss? American?
Brilliant insight here from: JTD -- Deb  
By YOU labelling them the way YOU see it, does nothing but insult some visitors, turning them away.…DW

:I challenge the claim that "copyright protection" is a valid term - what that FAQ is talking about is tagging a file as being copyrighted.  You could claim that "copyright protection" is a valid description of this, but it's a neologism, and Wikipedia isn't a soapbox to promote neologisms; and in any case, in 99.99% of cases where people use the term "copyright protection", they are just trying to say "copy protection" and don't quite know the term.

Sure sounds racist to me.  -- Zoe
*Any performance that focuses on stereotypes to fihd humor could be contrued as bigoted. But is it not the intent behind the performance and material that drives the ultimate message? It is almost assured that were a black female doing the same performances it wouldn't be protested; she would be heralded as finding humor in a legitimate sect of her culture that is often overlooked or demonized.

:And the fact that I have black friends that laugh right beside me while pointing fingers at each other while listening his antics shows that not every black person considers it offensive for a white man to poke fun of racial stereotypes that are quite true of some black people, including some in my small circle alone. Chris Rock makes fun of white people in the Southern United States as well as rednecks in general from time to time and I never hear about people wanting to boycott him.

Talk:Sierra Nevada

message: In the editing back-and-forth on 30 May-1 June, some information was deleted. I also believe that the format and writing of the article suffered. I will fix what I perceive as the problems, and keep track of the fixes, below. If other editors disagree, then can comment here or continue to improve the article directly.
* Sequoia picture causes bunching, moved down to conservation section, where it is more topical
* Infobox width: removed (50-80), no units specified
* Infobox lowest: lowest part of Lower Montane Forest does not correspond to lowest part of range (an ambiguous concept). No RS: deleted
* Infobox period: changed to Mesozoic --- most of the granite dates to the Cretaceous, but not all
* Restored parenthetical translation to first sentence (redundancy with infobox is OK)
* Mention of ecology and geology from lede restored
* Geography: restore paragraphs describing boundaries of range
* Geography: convert bullet list of summit peaks back into prose paragraph, eliminate subsection
* Move list article wlinks back into See Also section (rather than somewhat artificial see also in different section)
* History: restore facts (Fremont saw Lake Tahoe, legislature authorized California Geological Survey)
* Protected areas: clarify that 15.4% are protected from logging, rather than the total area of all of the parks/wildernesses (somewhat different)
I shall go back and add more relevant photos to the article: the editing seemed to remove a number of them. Also, the Anon editor raised some valid points in his/her last edit, which I will attempt to address, if these edits reach consensus. Thanks! —hike395 (talk) 11:55, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Restoring deleted information

message: Hike395 mentioned that a mountaineering section would help this article. It's an important part of the history of human use of the range, and climbing techniques that were new to North American climbers found their foothold in the Sierra Nevada in the early 20th century. 
However, to keep this current, I'm thinking of making it a more general climbing section. This way we can include the historical mountaineering landmarks, as well the ongoing development of world class trad climbing and bouldering routes.
Any input? I'll start this section soon. --Justin (talk) 17:16, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Talk:.NET Framework

message: ".NET Framework includes a set of standard class libraries. The class library is organized in a hierarchy of namespaces. Most of the built-in application programming interfaces (APIs) are part of either System.* or Microsoft.* namespaces. These class libraries implement many common functions, such as file reading and writing, graphic rendering, database interaction, and XML document manipulation. The class libraries are available for all CLI compliant languages. The class library is divided into two parts (with no clear boundary): Base Class Library (BCL) and Framework Class Library (FCL)."

thread_title:  Singular/plural lack of consistency 

message: I came to this article hoping to learn how .NET Core relates to .NET Framework, but it is not very clear. For example, what does the following sentence mean?
   On November 12, 2014, Microsoft announced .NET Core, in an effort to include cross-platform support for .NET, the source release of Microsoft's CoreCLR implementation, source for the "entire […] library stack" for .NET Core, and the adoption of a conventional ("bazaar"-like) open-source development model under the consolation stewardship of the .NET Foundation.
It feels like there is a verb or clause missing somewhere. And I have no idea what a "consolation stewardship" might be. Is it supposed to be "consolidating" or something?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.198.149.235 (talk) 11:16, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

It would nice to find even ONE coherent statement of what's OK with the current system - the lobbying efforts referred to tend to be US-centric, secretive, and difficult to decipher. They certainly don't publish defenses of "the system"...
