Talk:Mood Six

message: Referenced article claims that Mood Six played the young Moodys in the video supporting the single. This article claims they did not. The citation given seems like it might not support this claim. Some inconsistency here, at least one of the articles is wrong. Not my area of expertise, just noticed it. ++Lar: t/c 00:54, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Sculling

message: By my instructor, the action of rotating your fins to slowly propel yourself is also called "sculling." I can't find that on the internet. Does anyone know this? 65.100.0.172 (talk) 06:47, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Scuba term?  

message: Hmm...is it possible that "scull tennis" is not a real activity but is someone's idea of a joke?
Personally it doesn't seem very notable as an activity, even if it is true. The phrasing of this section also leads me to this conclusion. "St. Swithin's morn", indeed. I think a serious reference is needed here or the section should be removed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by SuW (talk • contribs) 03:37, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Scull tennis? Really? 

message: This is a long oar curving downwards into the water over the stern,  and is moved back and forth by the operator.
The yuloh is pivoted at about a midpoint of it's length and held in place, so that the operator can move it back and forth and at the same time change the angle of attack of the blade in the water to give the most forward thrust.
The advantage of the yuloh is that the human input used on each foreward and backward stroke of the yuloh provides a 100% input vs. rowing, where only half of the stroke provides useful propulsion.  The return stroke is work - lifting the oar out of the water and bringing it back to the starting point for the next power stroke - but provides no propulsion to the boat.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.251.48.178 (talk) 18:35, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Alcohol detoxification

message: The graph at the top of this article screams "inappropriate."  The title is "Harm Caused By Drugs" and the units are a 0-100 "harm rating" scale, representing "the levels of damage caused by drugs, in the opinion of drug-harm experts," according to the caption.
NONE of this seems to have any basis in objective fact, something which is noted right there in the caption ("opinion").  Far more shocking however is the use of "drug-harm experts" as a source of information.  If the survey had been of doctors, presumably this would say "doctors" or "medical professionals" instead, however it doesn't, leading me to believe that is not the case.  The phrase "drug-harm experts" sounds like a dreadfully biased grouping of anti-drug activists rather than medically-educated and -practiced individuals who could truthfully assess the harmfulness of various drugs.  Nonetheless, even doing that seems subjective (I.E. what determines the criteria of harmfulness?); the presently unexplained units on the 0-100 "harm scale" are utterly meaningless.
Long story short, this graphic appears more like an obtuse scare-tactic rather than a neutral evaluation of different drugs' actual harmfulness.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.211.134.0 (talk) 02:38, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: You are right. Only in chronic cases of alcohol dependence are withdrawal drugs necessary. In effect, anyone who stops drinking abruptly - even if you've only had a couple of drinks and then allow the alcohol to come out the system over a period of a week or so could be classed as having detoxed from alcohol. From a medical point of view, if a healthcare professional deems it fit that someone should have drugs in order to help cope with the withdrawal and ensure a safe detox process, then drugs should be administered and monitored. This article is quite poor and need thoroughly rewritten. There is a good article here: https://www.detoxtoday.co.uk/home-alcohol-detox-london-uk/ Jamesmcinally (talk) 01:08, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Gospels of Máel Brigte

message: In the latest edit to this article, User:PeterKidd made a couple of edits which I think should be reconsidered. In the first he converted the sentence "The binding is of red leather with gilt tooling and dates from after 1600." to "The binding is The binding is post-medieval." Although I agree that the binding is of little interest to someone interest in the history of the manuscript itself, the binding is an integral part of the physical object, The details of what type and when the binding wa made would be of interest to those interested in the provenance of codicology of the book.
The second edit removed the sentence "The prefatory material is grouped together at the beginning of the manuscript." Although it may seem obvious that prefatory material is, by definition grouped together at the beginning, it isn't always so, as some insular manuscript are organized by having the prefatory material for each individual gospel precede that gospel. Dsmdgold 14:09, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed on both points. The article is hardly so long as to need shortening. Johnbod 14:39, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have strong feelings, but here is the reasoning for my edits. There is perhaps an implication that "after 1600" suggests 17th-century, but "post-medieval" is far less specific. If I remember correctly the binding was done in the 18th century for the Harleys, and "post-1600" is just the shorthand used for the BL database. The second edit is a matter of sematics. As I understand the word, 'prefatory' material can only be at the beginning; if it is in the middle it is not 'prefatory'. I agree that a gospel 'preface' can be in the middle, but that does not make it 'prefatory', and anyway it would be more accurate not to call it a 'preface', but to call it a 'prologue' or an 'argument' (to use a more technical term) PeterKidd 13:22, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You make two very good points. I think I will change the first sentence to "The binding of red leather with gilt tooling is post-medieval." until we have a more specific date.  I see your point on the word prefatory. Can you suggest a better term to cover the all of non-biblical texts and tables that were included with with early Gospel Books (Jerome's letters, the canon tables, name lists, the various prologues and arguments, etc.) Perhaps "explanatory" might work. I do think that the fact that the prologues are gathered together in the beginning should be mentioned since in many of the other insular manuscripts they are not. Dsmdgold 14:31, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Why not just say it straight out, something like "The prologues do not precede each gospel, as in most manuscripts, but are gathered together with other prefatory material"?PeterKidd 12:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  ireland 

message: I agree with the above "Future Years?" author.  These future economic predictions are just crystal ball predictions and therefore should not be in Wikipedia.
If we want really want to keep them here, at least take the numbers down to 2 or 3 significant figures.  Predicting "47,701.806" dollars of GDP per citizen for next year is just ridiculous.  (I understand that these came from the IMF website, but really one could only be confident to within maybe 0.5% for the current year (which would be fairly bold, taken in April), and progressing to maybe 30% for 5 years into the future?).
Sure, include this list if you want to.  But perhaps we should at least put a warning at the top that this list is basically someone's opinion, with a description of (or links to) the method and thinking used.  Still, in that case, this list would basically be the IMF's original research.  But it could be interesting, with more backup.
