Talk:Myanmar Police Force

message: The sentence in question is: "Israel and Australia often provide specialists to enhance the training of Myanmar's police[2]."
The words Israel and Australia appear only once each in the article cited as corroborating that assertion: "It also said both South and North Korea and Israel reportedly have supplied weaponry or other aide to Myanmar's military. And it said that Myanmar military and police officials have received training from Russia, Ukraine, and Australia."
Whether the nebulous "it is said" is sufficient justification for including those two (but not ROK, DPRK, Russia, or Ukraine, for some reason. . .) I'll leave aside. It seems clear that (1)the cited source does not assert that Israel and Australia OFTEN provide anything, that (2) it doesn't assert that Israel provides any kind of specialist, nor is it asserted that (3) the "weaponry or other aide" Israel provides goes to the Myanmar Police Force.
To me, that's justification for clipping the sentence. I can see an argument for reworking the sentence, but as is, it seems objectively wrong. 76.170.112.193 (talk) 21:04, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Talk:2400 A.D.

message: Here are some places where the plural is given as "Tzorgs." A guy called Zenor tells you there is vital information in the records department at the bank. If you ask about INFORMATION he says
:Ask Zerben about Tzorgs.
When you find Zerben, and ask about TZORGS (actually the game looks at first four letters only) he replies:
:Rumor has it that the Tzorgs put some important computers under the Administration Center.
Generic comments from random unimportant bystanders:
:Soon, the Tzorgs will have us all brainwashed.
:Things were so much nicer before the Tzorgs came.
:Soon the Tzorgs will conquer the whole galaxy.
More frequently they are just called "robots" or sometimes "Tzorg robots."

message: (I'm using * to mean "all the varieties" like *.txt) It's clear that across wikipedia there has been a coordinated replacement of slave* words with enslave* words.

Talk:Calapooya Mountains

message: It appears to me that the Calapooya Divide and the Calapooya Mountains are two different entities that touch each other at the east end of the divide but run in different directions. Together they form a rough Y-shape with the tail of the Y ending at or near the Douglas–Klamath county line. The divide, the southern arm of the Y, runs east–west along the Lane–Douglas county border northeast of Roseburg. The Calapooya Mountains run southeast–northwest from the Cascade Range to near Oakridge. Page 265 of Loy's Atlas of Oregon shows these features pretty clearly. An on-line map of the Bohemia Mining District shows the difference clearly too, although the mining map and the Loy map are not identical. Scott's Peak appears to be one of the highest peaks in the divide, but the high peaks in the Calapooya Mountains are much higher. McArthur on p. 137 of Oregon Geographic Names says, "Calapooya Mountains join the Cascade Range at Cowhorn Mountain, with an elevation of 7,666 feet in the northeast corner of Douglas County." I'd like to adjust the article accordingly, but since this involves making fairly radical changes to the existing article, I thought I'd mention them here first. Finetooth (talk) 17:44, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the changes will be fine, it was unsourced to begin with and hasn't really grown since then. If the divide is separate enough, I'd even split that part off into a new article. But I don't think anyone is too tied to the original. Aboutmovies (talk) 06:21, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I’m not sure what peak is the highest in the Calapooya Mountains, but it’s definitely not the Scott Mountain near Roseburg.  That mountain isn’t even the tallest peak in its local neighborhood.   There is another Scott Mountain north of McKenzie Bridge that is 6,086 ft high.  It might be candidate for highest peak if it’s actually in the Calapooya range; if it is, it would be at the northeastern corner of the range.  I didn’t take out the text that says Scott Mountain near Roseburg is the highest peak because there are several on-line sources that say it is, but they are clearly wrong.  At the geo-point USGS shows the “Calapooya Mountains” on its topographic maps, virtually ever peak is higher than Scott Mountain northeast of Roseburg.--Orygun (talk) 23:20, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Readability test

message: Should this be Merged with Readability survey?? Eleigh33 19:53, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I suggest to not merge because a readability survey is an actual survey, while a readability test is a mathematical formula, the most well known of theses is the Flesch-Kincaid. Loserbum3 23:36, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merging 

message: There is much on this page that is inaccurate and incomplete. For example, it says the Smog formula has a computerized list. Where does that come from? There may be computerized versions of the Smog formula, but it was written to be applied manually. Also, we should page should be renamed as Readability formulas, because there is so little information about the alternative to the formulas, conducting a "reader survey." You can test a text using real readers, but it is extremely difficult to do because of all the variables for which you must control. Please contact me about making these necessary changes. Bdubay (talk) 02:47, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Inaccuracies

message: This phrasing is both POV and amateurish. A prediction of reading difficulty (= readability test) can be correlated to a measure derived from testing actual readers, such as a cloze test. If there is a positive correlation, it might turn out to be anywhere from 0 (zero) to 100% (perfect correlation). Long experience (see Klare reference, and much else in the literature) has shown that the best tests on average predict difficulty significantly better that a human judge. And since the tests can be administered to large quantities of computerised text, the whole process is extremely economical.
What then is the sense of 'unreliable'? It is known that sentence length correlates positively with difficulty of reading, and no-one has ever claimed or even thought that the correlation was perfect. Macdonald-ross (talk) 10:39, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

message: "Breeder" reactors are a very specific type of reactor, and there are very few in existence.  Breeder reactors have a unique design (use fast unmoderated neutrons - properly called "fast breeder reactors") and it is implied they breed plutonium and other fissionables for use as reactor fuel, not weapons.  Virtually all nuclear weapons plutonium production (which could also be labelled as plutonium breeding) is done in reactors not technically labelled breeder/fast-breeder because they use slow, moderated neutrons. A small technical point; and the nomenclature is tricky.
