Talk:USCGC Mackinaw (WAGB-83)

message: I left the following message at User talk:74.222.220.183
Thank you for your edits to the MACKINAW. Your latest revision as of 12:14, 27 July 2013 deleted a reference to amateur radio operations in MACKINAW. From what I see this was the only reference for the ham radio paragraph. Furthermore, I found the information at reference http://ccecpsco.org/ interesting, and not "a briefest mention of the subject" (or words to that effect) as you describe. Please consider reverting your edit. Please consider becoming a registered User if you have not already done so.
NB: I did not sail in MACKINAW, nor am I a member of W8AGB, nor CCECPSCO, nor am I a Michigander.
Thank you for remembering the MACKINAW and helping to preserve our Coast Guard history. Semper Paratus Tjlynnjr (talk) 04:12, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Chris Hillman

message: Derek R Bullamore received the following email :-
:Derek:
:I see you have contributed.   I bet you're much smarter and technologically adept than I.
:Could you please activate the photo of Chris Hillman... It's from Hillman's website press kit, so there is no copyright problem.  In fact, Chris asked me to stick it up there.  I couldn't figure out how to display it.
:Also, Chris told me he was born in 1944, not 1942, so I changed that.  Couldn't figure out how to change  IMDB.com, from where you got the 1942 date.
:Thanks.

replies: text: I added a picture that I took of Chris to the article, so there is no question about copyright status with the current picture used in the article.  Also, I see that someone (92.5.22.240) today (May 12, 2008), changed Chris's birth date information back to 1942 for whatever reason.  I looked up information on Chris in Johnny Rogan's book, The Byrds:  Timeless Flight Revisited — The Sequel, and on page 41 it says, "Christopher Hillman, the youngest of four children, was born on 4 December 1944..."  Also, the Allmusic Guide lists December 4, 1944 as his birth date too.  So, I reverted to the previous version. Leepaxton (talk) 00:10, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Bo Yibo

message: From the article:
:Bo died of old age at almost 99 in a Beijing hospital in mid January 2007.
The Chinese reckon a person's age differently than Westerners. Instead of computing the difference between someone's birth and death, they count the number of calendar years that someone has been alive. (This is similar to the way the Hebrews counted the reign of kings, wherein a reign lasted "one year" even if he was only in power for one month of that year.) They also consider a person already one year old when they are born. So by Chinese reckoning, Bo would be considered as having died at the age of 100. — Loadmaster 16:33, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: But when exactly was he born then? Extremely sexy 16:55, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually this is more likely, because it is considered much more auspicious to say "ninety-nine" than "ninety-eight". If there is only a 10-day difference anyways, then the media might as well just say 99. Usually, when the Chinese media reports deaths, it is the person's (wstern-style) age that applies.

thread_title:  Denise Minger 

message: There seems to be some confusion about the subject of this article. It is not about the China–Cornell–Oxford Project, which has its own Wikipedia page and in any case only occupies one chapter of the book. It is also not about whole food or therapies for cancer. It is about a book. As such, it should provide background to the book (not the project), a summary of its contents, as well as any analysis, information on publication, and reception (see Wikipedia:WikiProject Books). For information on the book's contents, the book itself is the primary source, and it is sufficient as long as interpretation is not added (thus, tags requesting a non-primary source are misguided). I am going to do the following:
*Move much of the lead into a section called Contents.
*Remove the non-primary tags.
*Move the background on the project to the page about the project.

Talk:List of national highways in India by state (old numbering)

message: Given below is the text appearing about the longest / shortest National Highway.
"The longest National Highway is the NH 7 which is from Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh to Kanyakumari at the southern most point of the Indian mainland, in Tamil Nadu covering a distance of 2,369 km (1,472 mi), and passing through the metros like Jabalpur, Nagpur, Hyderabad and Bangalore. The shortest National Highway is the NH 47A (4,168 km (2,590 mi)), which is a stretch to the Ernakulam - Kochi Port."  
It seems that a correction is needed in the shortest National Highway NH47A.  While it may be true that Ernkulam - Cochin Port could be the shortest, the distance should be less than 20-30kms only and not 4168km.
Kindly check with relevant sources.
Thanks

Wikipedia talk:No Virtual Majority

message: While I can certainly appreciate the need for scientific POV, I think that this policy should also address (or clearly state it does not do so) the issue of nationality-based POV (although my argument can actually be applied to scientific POV, too) in votes. A vote/debate on any subject will attact people interested in that subject. Therefore as an example, a vote on renaming of a Polish monarch will attract a high percentage of Polish wikieditors (compared to editors of other nationality). Should their votes be weighted (should they count more or less)? On the similar argument, should the votes of historians in such a debate (about a historical king) count more or less then that of other editors? Note that any such group (Poles, or historians) does not represent a majority in real life, too (although they often quote scientific sources, the issue at hand is that such group will also tend dominate discussions and article-space).--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 15:34, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  When nationalities come in votes 

message: Ackoz's argument lumps many evolving, integrative, complementary and alternative medical modalities into one disparged group and then tries to associate the group with a worst example.  This diatribe confuses entities that have tremendous disparities in scientific basis and evidence, similar to lumping Nobel prize astronomers and astrophysicists in with the worst carnival astrologers. Ackoz repeatedly attempts to distort NPOV to substitute opinions, often counterfactual, for facts.  This individual's actions have been "passionate", often trying to influence Wikipedia policy in ways at fundamental variance with wiki policies (repeatedly rejected), filing RfC & RfAr with little cause or notice involved, and other intimidation techniques.  Ackoz's concept of "No virtual majority" seems to be in conflict with concepts of scholarship and evolving science.--69.178.41.55 18:03, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

message: This is the English language version of the page, right? I think it would be more useful to English readers to put up the most recent English cover instead of the Polish.

Talk:Noel Fielding

message: A good faith edit's been made recently to add the middle name 'Gregory' which was undone (not by me) and then reverted back by the original editor. 
Rather than revert again and risk any edit wars, thought it better to discuss it here and give information about the official UK birth register entry that just has 'Noel Fielding' with no middle name - see https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/information.pl?scan=1&r=250126078:1436&d=bmd_1595843552.
The original editor's source for the middle name is "Series 4, Episode 8". Taskmaster. 13 June 2017 (if anyone else wants to watch and skip the intro start watching from around 35 mins in). The relevant sketch is about Fielding's 'marriage' to a plastic duck - although the comedian officiating at the 'wedding' does say his middle name is Gregory, is this most likely a comedic reference to Fielding's character Old Gregg? He still mentions this character on his Twitter and Instagram intro, where he says "I'm Ol Greg mother Licker!".
