Talk:Shrinky Dinks

message: Would be nice to see some explanation of the chemistry behind the SD.
: I agree. According to this instructables.com article, polystyrene, number six plastic. That shows it being done with blow-molded plastic, so I'm guessing it happens because of residual stresses from being stretched out. But I don't know.

thread_title:  Chemistry 

message: The wikipedia page claims that the shrink ratio is 5:8, but the official Shrinky Dinks website claims it shrinks down to 1/3rd its original measurements (thus the "9 times brighter" claim, which makes sense; 1/3rd the length and width reduces it down to 1/9th the area of the original piece). 
The video evidence provided on the site supports this idea, hence my request for clarification. Is the 1:3 ratio only for "Official" Shrinky Dinks (and thus the ratio varies based on which brands are used) or has this ratio changed over time? Veled (talk) 00:50, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Is it now 62.5% of original or 37.5%? Though the latter is close to a 1:3 new:old size. Still, could be worse. Could be "three times smaller"..!   149.254.248.83 (talk) 23:59, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Actions along the Matanikau

message: Dear fellow contributors
MOSNUM no longer encourages date autoformatting, having evolved over the past year or so from the mandatory to the optional after much discussion there and elsewhere of the disadvantages of the system. Related to this, MOSNUM prescribes rules for the raw formatting, irrespective of whether a date is autoformatted or not). MOSLINK and CONTEXT are consistent with this. 
There are at least six disadvantages in using date-autoformatting, which I've capped here:
Removal has generally been met with positive responses by editors. Does anyone object if I remove it from the main text in a few days’ time on a trial basis? The original input formatting would be seen by all WPians, not just the huge number of visitors; it would be plain, unobtrusive text, which would give greater prominence to the high-value links.

thread_title:  Rafferty 

message: From the article:
As on their debut album, most of the instrumental backing was provided by the group of session musicians known as The Section. This quartet consisting of keyboardist Craig Doerge, guitarist Danny Kortchmar, bassist Leland Sklar, and drummer Russell Kunkel, along with multi-instrumentalist David Lindley and bassist Tim Drummond, would be dubbed by Crosby as 'The Mighty Jitters' and provide support for the duo both on stage and in the studio for the remainder of the decade. 
In the above, does 'The Mighty Jitters' refer to:
# All of the aforementioned individuals (i.e., The Section)?  
# Both "multi-instrumentalist David Lindley and bassist Tim Drummond", whose names are not separated by an Oxford comma, and therefore may be construed as a unit?
# Only Tim Drummond, the last-named individual? 
The first case seems most likely, but all three cases are grammatically valid. 
A rewrite for disambiguation would be helpful.

message: Hi there.  I dropped by the article and noted your request for a source for the LGBT Actors category.  I've provided a citation from Andrea Olmstead's Juillard: A History, which mentions Azito's cross-dressing right after Houseman's exasperated quest for more "strong, heterosexual boys" in the acting program.  Don't know if that's sufficient or not, but, to my knowledge, it's all that's available.

:Hm - I'm not sure that's really enough, to tell you the truth.  I mean, cross-dressing is quite a bit different than LGB or T.

Talk:The Malfated

message: I have been following the band 'The Malfated' for a long time and I am confidant that they warrant a place on the Wikipedia. They have a studio album that is available to purchase, and they have a very substantial following, myself included. We live in a time when the way music is marketed is changing, and bands like The Malfated are a testament to this. Their album is indeed self-released, yet it has sold well, has been recorded professionally, mastered professionally, pressed professionally, and released in a professional manner to a public that has bought it. This should not stop them from having an entry on Wikipedia - the DIY approach has not excluded many punk rock bands from having an entry. The Malfated do not just appear on the Internet - I'm sitting here right now with the latest 'Rimfrost' magazine in which they are featured. Many people have looked for a Wikipedia article on them and found nothing, as have I, and The Malfated certainly qualify to have one. I hadn't finished writing the piece when the speedy deletion notification was made (I'm not a very fas typer) - however, I do not think a band turning down label interest to go it alone and keep control of their vision should mean that they are not to be written about, particularly when they have achieved a level of notable success.
I will be adding more meat to the piece which will explain the significance of The Malfated and bands like them, the popularity they enjoy and how they were able to reach out to their fans in a way previous bands were unable. Their work has already been praised by bands such as Marilyn Manson, The Divine Comedy, and All About Eve. I would also suggest that the fact that their website was the first in the world to offer MySpace Backgrounds (itself now something of a cult) alone should qualify them for an entry. Their notability is also confirmed by the ranking they have achieved in the worldwide MySpace charts - from gaining higher entries than bands such as Green Day to being a regular Top 10 act in the MySpace Gothic Charts.
I intend to continue finishing the piece and whittling it into a concise piece with clear sources, though any suggestions would be welcome :)
