Talk:Archimedes number

message: Fascinating. What, prey tell, is its application - what is Ar in the equation? Articles should always be able to be read stand-alone. This is not. GRAHAMUK 12:33, 16 Oct 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: There. Nothing like a bit of "What Links Here" sugar :) Dysprosia 12:38, 16 Oct 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I still don't think it tells me much. What is the result of the equation - a velocity, a rate... what? If it's a dimensionless number, what does it signify?. Also, having to click "what links here" to determine what an article is talking about indicates a general failure on the part of the author to be encyclopedic, IMHO. In this case the only link to here is "dimensionless number", which is a general thing that does not have anything to do with fluid motions, etc. The opening sentence gives a hint but is still not encyclopedic enough, I think. GRAHAMUK 13:08, 16 Oct 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, but we can't always win. Having a few hits on "What Links Here" always helps - though I do agree the article still needs much work - unfortunately I don't know about it to do so Dysprosia 13:11, 16 Oct 2003 (UTC)
Talk:The Terrorist (1998 film)

Talk:A Defence of Common Sense

message: I've done a copyedit; hope I was write changing "casually" to "causally" and removing the bit about the galaxy.
Needed: date of publication; evidence of its influence (in its absence, I removed "influential" from the description of the essay); ideally, reasons why people find Moore's arguments convincing. Vicki Rosenzweig 12:43, 16 Oct 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: Ha!  No one finds Moore's arguments convincing, but the text was influential nonetheless. KSchutte 20:33, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: As the G. E. Moore article notes, the essay deeply influenced Wittgenstein, who grappled with it in his posthumously-published On Certainty.  That's just the most famous example of its influence, which has been pretty wide-ranging, from epistemology to the meta-philosophical discussion of how one ought to proceed when arguing. --Delirium 08:46, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

message: As indicated in the article, F.W. de Klerk is of Dutch origin. Klerk is a Dutch word, derived from Latin "clericus", and was generally used for administrative professions (see: []). Many people in the Netherlands are called "de Klerk". There is no reason it would be derived from Le Clerc or other French words, as De Klerk has Dutch roots and Afrikaans is a language derived from Dutch. This should be corrected.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fabzwiki (talk • contribs) 10:04, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Legal separation

message: Title is misleading because the body is more specific than it represents. SD6-Agent 03:22, 17 Oct 2003 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: In the first numbered section, 'A mensa et thoro separation' this statement is made:
"The legitimacy of any future child born to the couple remains intact, and the spouses may not legally remarry."
I'm assuming this means they may not legally marry someone other than each other?  Because technically, they can't remarry each other because they're still married to each other, yes?  Common sense tells me that if they tried to apply for a marriage license to marry each other, they wouldn't be granted one because a clerk would rightly point out they are already married and any ceremony would effectively be a vow renewal but I'm by no means law-knowledgeable so I'm looking for confirmation of my understanding of exactly what that sentence is saying and hopefully, someone to amend it for the ignorant like myself.
I'm also curious, if a woman had a child while the couple are legally separated but the child isn't the husband's, who becomes the legal father of the child?

replies: text: Quoting the essential information (i.e. names of ecoregions) should be okay.  Just don't copy the layouts, images.  On the other hand, though, is such a list necessary in Wikipedia so long as the WWF provides one?  A-giau 20:11, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

text: Copyright problems can be avoided for the reasons given above, particulalry if we note in the introduction that the list was compiled by WWF . The list would make a fabulous jumping-off point for articles about each region - I came to this page from Wordl economy and was curious about the regions.

thread_title:  

message: This list is not in fact a list of the 867 terrestrial ecoregions; it is a list of WWF's Global 200, which are priorities for conservation, and this list is duplicated on the Global 200 page. The Global 200 list is not a complete list, and includes a number of "composite" ecoregions. This page could either redirect to Global 200, or it could be made into a definitive list of ecoregions; thoughts? Tom Radulovich 18:33, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that, given the title, this should be an exhaustive list of ecoregions.  The Global 200 is just a subset of ecoregions that the World Wildlife Fund thinks should be conservation priorities, which I think has less encyclopedic relevance than a full list.  It looks like Yuje went through and created templates with all (most?) of the ecoregions, so maybe we can just include them here.  They are currently listed under their respective Ecozones.  Many of the templates are tables written in HTML instead of wikimarkup, unfortunately, so they need to get converted, too.  Miguel.v 14:18, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed.  Merge, make comprehensive, and identify those on the Global 200 list (e.g. with asterixes), and  link externally to the Global 200 list.Fredwerner 02:27, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

text: I agree too -- when I saw the request to merge, my very first thought was "What about the other 667 ecoregions that the WWF does not consider endangered yet?" It is politicised. I want to see a list of ecoregions based on real science in "the world as it is", not as we wish it to be. Further, the ordering of the list bothers me -- is vegetation and rainfall the primary criteria for grouping? I want to see all the Nearctic entries together, all the Palearctic entries together, etc. by the ordering given here, adjacent ecoregions get widely separated in the list, while forests poles apart get listed together.

Talk:DNA testing

message: I created this disambiguation page because i believed that some of the redirects to the only two articles that are currently disambiguated, "DNA profiling" and "genetic testing", were applicable to both. The DNA profiling article particularly had many redirects that were ambiguous, at best. A few of the DNA profiling redirects could have arguably been made into redirects to the genetic testing article, in my opinion. However, I do not think that anyone was trying to steer people one way or the other. I think that the articles on the topic changed over time, perhaps some of them were merged and some were abandoned and redirected. Anyway, I think that the terms that could be ambiguous now redirect here. In fact, I may have gone overboard with what may be considered ambiguous. If you think so, you are welcome to undo any of my redirects. However, please try to imagine the term as it might be used in the other field. In addition, while it may look like I took many redirects from the "genetic testing" article, if you look at the changes I made, you will see that all but the last two of the redirects that I changed were for the DNA profiling article. Finally, while I left "DNA profile" as a redirect to "DNA profiling", I have heard the term used frequently in the topic of genetic testing, especially in articles about people who test their own DNA.
