message: The link to 多寶塔碑 went to a commercial site with no such image. Wiki Chinese edition has a page with this title but I was unable to link to it. I managed to link to an image of the whole stele from that page but it messed up the text format of that section, and also has no English caption. I need help from someone to clean up the formatting, add an English caption for the stele, and ideally also take a detail image from the same page, zooming in on a portion of the text or another rubbing such as the 2nd image on the Chinese version page.

Talk:Uwe Hohn

message: Nice translation.  Thanks for that contribution.
Intrigued by this story of the man who threw too far, I looked for supplementary material.  I found one assertion that another person actually threw more than 100m as early as 1966, using an unorthodox technique:
"In 1966 the javelin was thrown over 100 meters (328 feet) by a Spaniard who employed a discus style turn before the throw. This throwing style was deemed unsafe and subsequently banned by the International Amateur Athletic Federation (IAAF). The 100 meter mark was once again broken in 1984. The IAAF then adopted new rules to ensure shorter flight times. "
That's from a web site that appears to be related to a children's book about aerodynamics. (javelin aerodynamics) I haven't seen another source with the name of the 1966 thrower, however.
I can imagine the IAAF had some discussion about the safety issue of +100m throws.  It might be nice to include a quote about that, if anyone can dig up something relevant from the '80s.
Cheers

Talk:Ya'qub ibn Tariq

message: The article says that "Biruni tabulated ibn Tāriq's estimate for the greatest distance between the Earth  and the Sun as 8,000 times the Earth radius" giving a translation of al-Biruni's Indica as a reference. But that text gives 8,000 as the figure for the distance to Mars, not to the Sun. The figures given there for the distance to the Sun are in the range of approx. 1,100 to approx. 2,100. I don't have any other sources to hand to check on this right now, but I'll see what I can dig up, especially given the additional claim that this was "the largest known estimate for the astronomical unit up until that time": I have the impression that al-Biruni made a separate determination of this figure, which this claim might be referring to? –Syncategoremata (talk) 13:59, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

message: There are several films listed as being premiered during the inaugural festival, but were fact not even filmed until years later.
Specifically: Spider-Man 3 (2007) & The Avengers (2012)
Either both films have been included lacking any chronologic distinction from the earlier premieres, or the sectin/edit's author included
the two films by mistake. Regardless, reference to both should be removed in order to absolve any confusion created by mismatched festival
dates; Or alternately, with proper citation, follow the selections from the debut festival with examples premiered during later dates. Another possibility, given the proper source(s), would be the addition of a single table (or more depending on design and format) of films first shown as part of Tribeca, grouped by year of appearance, and sorted alphabetically (speaking of which, it seems about half the inaugural premieres included appear to be absent from the linked source at the end of the list. Someone find a proper citation or these should go.

Talk:Sidney Farber

message: I learned more about Sidney Farber from Siddhartha Mukherjee's "The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer". But I haven't found any source (Wikipedia or other) which gives greater detail on how Sidney Farber, the "father of modern chemotherapy", went from a pathologist in the basement of Children's Hospital to treating live children to becoming the leader of the huge enterprise which today is the "Dana–Farber Cancer Institute". What made this man tick? Where are the biographies (printed or film) of Sidney Farber? I guess this isn't a critique of only this Wikipedia article, but it is a critique of ALSO this Wikipedia article (because ALSO Wikipedia does not give this information).

Talk:Chest of drawers

message: I have read that a "dresser" was not for dressing one's self originally, but rather was a piece of furniture found in a kitchen, dining area, or food preparation area.  It use was to "dress" meat, hence a dresser. Only later did the term move to its more common day usage.
The original dresser had a chest of drawers underneath a thick slab top (for chopping and cutting) and typically had a high thin hutch for storing plates on edge, facing the room (probably for display).
