Talk:Liang Shuming

message: The general information presented on the articles are accurate, and it broadly covers what one needs to know about Liang Shuming at the very basic level. In a sense, it very well serves the purpose of Wikipedia. It is a good article to start reading when one is first learning about the scholar. However, there is definitely room for improvement. Despite offering an appropriate amount of general information about Liang Shuming, for example his date of birth, where he received his education, his occupation, and etc., there should definitely be more descriptions of his ideas and contributions to modern Chinese philosophy that have made him known for. For instance, Liang's nickname, "the last confusion," and how he came about acquiring such title should be mentioned in the entry. More specifically, the entry should more clearly point out that Liang believes that one is driven by his or her “Will,” and that there are three ideal cultural ways existing in a hierarchy: the Western model, the Chinese model, and the Indian model. As mentioned in the article "Eastern and Western Cultures" by Guy S. Alitto, culture is the way of life, or essentially how “people resolve the contradiction between the Will’s demands and the obstacles presented by the environment.” Hence, cultural differences are due to “the way the Will attempts to deal with the environment." As such, I would like to see a clearer exposition in the "Eastern and Western Cultures and Their Philosophies" section. For example, the something in the nature of the following paragraph could be added;
The three cultures constitute (Western, Chinese and Indian) on a different location of the philosophical spectrum. The cultural relativism has resulted in the unleveled condition and welfare of nations of the world. Liang believes the Western countries are currently prevailing due to the suitability of their culture to the current era, as they began with the first course and consequently were able to attain basic needs, and solve practical problems.  The Chinese and the Indian, on the other hand, skipped the first course without having transcended it. This was his primary reason why the Eastern nations did not modernize like those of the West. According to Alitto's article, he believes that if “culture is in its entirely is an expression of a distinct underlying direction that the Will may take, then individual cultural products—such as European science or Chinese ethics—cannot be detached or added. The people can produce the products of a certain culture only if they hold the underlying attitude of that culture.”
Also, it would be nice to include scholars' views on his ideologies. An example is Guy S. Alitto, who argues that Liang contradicts himself in the idea of culture blending. Such additions would enhance the article by providing it with more perspective. Nevertheless, the writer shall keep in mind that this is an encyclopedia, hence he or she still needs to maintain objectivity in the writing.    — Preceding unsigned comment added by Achirathivat (talk • contribs) 18:37, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: It is commonly claimed that the distortions are put in place to stop OCR.
I do not think this likely; the distortions are so minimal that OCR would still be easy.
I think a more likely explanation is that without distortions, email providers could quickly scan for all files matching an MD5 hash and mark them as spam. If the images have minor variations, their hashes will be unique and thus it makes it harder for providers to identify the spam emails.
I realise that wikipedia is not a place for original research, but thought it nonetheless noteworthy.

Hi all,
I have recently revised this page trying to address the open issues of the previous version, namely:
1) This article needs attention from an expert in Telecommunications. (November 2008)
2) This article does not cite any references or sources. (November 2009) 
I also tried to keep into account the major points raised above, that is, the problem of obfuscation and signature-based detection.
Though I'm not an expert on Telecommunications, I did some major work on image spam detection.
However, I could not understand why the old page is still visualized instead of the new one.
Could anyone point out how the updating process takes place in this case, or provide any reference to understand how that works?
Thanks!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.167.131.1 (talk) 13:55, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Rhinotyphlops

message: The polyphyletic nature of the species lumped together under Rhinotyphlops by Roux-Estève (1974), appears to have led to the separation of those genera into four genera: Afrotyphlops, Letheobia, Megatyphlops and a smaller Rhinotyphlops. See:  Abstract;  and  ITIS has yet (December 2013) to make any changes in their listings. Perhaps because the Scolecophidia are not a current interest of Dr. Roy W. McDiarmid. See lead to List of snake genera. Nonetheless, other databases such as the Reptile Database have updated their listings.

Talk:Unity of opposites

message: This may be true in Western philosophy, but the concept existed in Taoist philosophy as well.  For example, see Stephen Mitchell's 'Second Book of the Tao'
"Everything can be seen as this; everything can be seen as that.
The that depends on the this; the this mirrors the that.  
One follows from the other; each is inseparable from both.
You can't have right without wrong, life without death, the true without the false"
(chapter 6)
Also:
"...If you want to have right without wrong or order without disorder, you don't understand the Tao.
You can't have one quality and not have it's opposite as well.
You can't reach for the positive and not create the negative by the very act of your reaching ... ".

thread_title:  "First suggested by Heraclitus" 

message: This phrase:
:
is rather naive. It's true that 2 and -2 are different integers, but modern mathematics encompasses many other, less intuitive, structures. Algebra over the field with two elements is characterized by the fact that everything is its own opposite. And there's no particular reason to select additive inverses as the one true mathematical opposite relation. There are lots of classes of objects that are their own opposites, in one way or another, listed at Involution (mathematics) and Duality (mathematics).
I'll remove the claim that unity of opposites cannot exist in mathematics. Of course, if there's a reliable source that makes the same claim, then we can restore the claim and attribute it to that source directly. Melchoir (talk) 09:23, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Gustavo Laureano

message: I tried to address the issues of the sources/references as I could. It's worth mentioning that it is real tough in some cases to find appropriate sources on the Internet, even for important subjects. As opposed to the US and other countries, information from Puerto Rico and other Latin American countries isn't as sourced and/or documented online. For example, a lot of important Latin magazines still don't have online databases of articles, or things like that. This makes it difficult to find appropriate sources. I'll try to keep an eye on the article and keep improving it as best as I can, but I do think it warrants its own article, considering that Laureano had made a name for himself BEFORE starting La Secta, and has continued to do so, even as a member of the group.

Talk:Saturday Night Fish Fry

message: Hello : The R&R Hall of Fame source used for "rock and roll" that was added to the infobox states "His classic 'Saturday Night Fish Fry' is an early example of rap and possibly the first rock and roll recording. [emphasis added]" Several other sources also qualify the term with "might/may be the first", "is one of the first", etc.
There are several competing views as to what was the "first rock 'n roll record". Those who believe that "Rocket 88" (1954), "Rock Around the Clock" (1954), or ":Heartbreak Hotel" (1956) is the first, would not consider the earlier "Saturday Night Fish Fry" (1949) as "rock and roll" (any later songs could not be considered the first, if an earlier one is identified).
 
Adding "rock and roll" as a genre in the infox does not appear to be supported by the article refs and, indeed, is contradicted by several other reliable sources. I haven't seen "possibly" added to an infobox genre; just listing "rock and roll" does not properly convey what the source states and not be accurate. This is something that is best left for discussion in the article.
