Talk:North African hedgehog

message: The article says in two places that "little is known", so in the off chance that a biologist stops by here and plans to study them, I wanted to mention that I found one in Gafsa oases yesterday. It had fallen into an irrigation channel and was swimming for its life, I fished it out with a palm frond. Might be an easier population to study than trying to find ones that live in the more deserty parts of the desert.
I've been around a long time and know this isn't really the purpose of Wikipedia, but I don't think I'll distract too much from the discussion on this talk page. Regards, —Ben Brockert (42) 16:42, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: This experiment checks for the appearance of electron neutrinos from myon neutrinos by the mechanism of neutrino oscillation. Is there any article on the internet which explains why this channel would be excluded?
:  +  →  + 
This reaction would proceed by a W- exchange and I don't quite see how it can be distinguished from a neutrino oscillation, at least not with this experimental setup. An appearance of electron neutrinos would be measured by the far detector, but the electron neutrinos could be the product of the above reaction. Phr en (talk) 12:57, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: This would require two weak interactions (one in the material before the detector and one in the detector), an extremely rare process compared to the single interaction in the detector with neutrino mixing. The dominant source of background is direct production in the beam (see the publication. In addition, it cannot happen with antineutrinos and you can calculate precisely how frequently it happens. Its energy/length dependence is different as well but the detector is not sensitive to that yet. --2003:57:8A06:7E01:E57A:CE1C:4494:ADF4 (talk) 16:49, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Neutrino cross sections measurements for all kinds of reaction channels are very rare. It may appear a bit hasty to contribute "appearances" or "disappearances" of neutrinos to oscillations, at least until real oscillations over several cycles have been observed (not only "appearances" or "disappearances"), see for example ,  etc, or for antineutrinos .

thread_title:  Nick Lauda 

message: Now, I'm a complete Popy fanboy, but the comparison with Matchbox is a complete red herring. I'm not much of an expert on Matchbox themselves, but I know for a fact both Corgi and Dinky did a wide range of F1 and similar racing cars that were commonly avaliable in toy stores (a quick Google shows Matchbox did do a fair number as well). The larger models often had fairly accurate reproduction of sponsorship and detail, or complex fictional layouts, and were heavy on diecast. To suggest Popy got to that one first, which the section does, is bordering on an out-and-out lie. 
It's also of questionable use anyway - I have no idea what the Japanese market for F1 toy cars was like before Arrow Emblem, but the state of the Western market (where, IIRC, the toys didn't come out) is irrelevant.

Talk:Bilma

message: 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica says
By March 1899 Bilma was included in the French sphere of influence in West Africa. Turkey claimed the oasis as part of the hinterland of Tripoli and garrisoned Bilma in 1902. In 1906, however, a French force from Zinder occupied the town, no opposition being offered by the Ottoman authorities. In 1907 the oasis and surrounding district was created a circle of the Military Territory of the Niger (see SAHARA).
That's probably not suitable for inclusion in the History section unless it is extended to desribe changes since 1907. David Brooks (talk) 02:32, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

message: WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals.  So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,      — The Transhumanist    07:27, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Raziq Faani

message: :Should this poet's Afghan nationality be included in lead, or only his Tajik ethnicity? An editor has felt that his nationality should not be included, only his Tajik ethnicity.  I've repeatedly included his nationality, as I felt the sources stressed his notability as an Afghan national symbol.  We could benefit from more opinions, especially from Dari speakers. T L Miles (talk) 14:30, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The Manual of Style recommends including nationality and not ethnicity. Any controversial or controverted material should be sourced.  As Wikipedia:Citing sources says, "Biographies of living persons should be sourced with particular care, for legal and ethical reasons. All contentious material about living persons must cite a reliable source." --Bejnar (talk) 16:49, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Comment The entry in the Manual of Style clearly means that his nationality should be there, to wit, Afghan. What is there now is "Persian", which is meaningless in American English, and which links to a disambig page to boot. The lead goes on to say he wrote in Persian (disambig, again), which in American English means "Farsi". The MoS also says "3b. Ethnicity should generally not be emphasized in the opening unless it is relevant to the subject's notability." I think we can interpret that to mean that a poet's native language and ethnicity, being part of his notability, should be mentioned. I think the opening sentence might better be this: Raziq Faani (1943–2007) was an Afghan poet and novelist from Kabul. A Tajik, he published more than ten volumes of poetry and novels in his native [insert language link here] language. --Milkbreath (talk) 20:24, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
