Talk:American alligator

message: Should be Texas to North Carolina unless someone can furnish a source. Current sources for western and northeastern limits in range are pretty explicit:
"Though they have not returned to Virginia just yet, American Alligators can be found from Florida to North Carolina, just shy of the VA border." (Virginia Living Museum)
"The American alligators were only spotted in the US side of the Rio Grande in old meandric spots called "Resacas" ... The reports of sightings and capture of alligators in the Mexican side of the Rio Grande are possibly due to specimens that were released or that have escaped  from  private  collections,  but  could  also  indicate  a natural  occurring migration of alligators ... We  hope to  come back  to  the site  and do  nocturnal  surveys to  more precisely detect the range limits of these two crocodilian species."(Sigler 2007)

thread_title:  Distribution 

message: I have noticed that an editor has changed the term "warm temperate" to "subtropical", which is fine and doesn't require a revert, as the two terms are interchangeable. However the claim "warm temperate climate doesn't exist" is inaccurate in itself. Indeed the Köppen classification system uses the term subtropical, but there are other major classification systems which often use this term, as indicated in bold letters in the article the editor themselves linked while making these claims. Just wanted to make that clear, despite the edit itself not requiring any further changes. 85.153.200.69 (talk) 12:35, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Warm Temperate Climate 

message: I feel like this assumed "fact" about crocodilians and reptiles in general really could use some editing on many wikipedia articles, for the simple fact that despite how often it is repeated as a fact, there is little evidence most reptile species actually grow throughout their lives. Indeed there is substantial evidence most of them don't. I'm new to editing on wikipedia though, so I am unsure how proper it is to remove stated things from an article if the source I include isn't up to snuff. Here's some sources I am considering and I'd like to know if I should just include one or all of them:

message: The role of iron in the heater is most likely as a catalyst, since it is used in a small amount. In this case, the iron is initially oxidized, and then reduced back to its elemental form as the magnesium is oxidized and sends its two valance electrons to iron

message: The first section (currently the longest) is "Computers and technology", but most of this is about information technology, but there are two other entries - core (manufacturing) and nuclear reactor core that seem incongruous together with the rest.
I propose separating Computers and technology into "Information technology" and "Engineering". At this point Information technology might not be quite the longest section in this article, so it might be sensible to to move both these new sections under the umbrella section of Science (of which they are both arguably part).

Talk:Jack Lynch

message: This is far from the best article on a Taoiseach that I've read on this site.  As usual, sources aren't listed, and there are many subjective evaluations of Lynch's popularity and integrity, which, while I'm not necessarily quarrelling with them, are neither here nor there as long as they remain unreferenced.  It's okay to say that the guy was very popular, but there has to be some evidence for the fact that isn't just anecdotal - such as the judgment of noted scholars or historians, or a quote from an obituary in a newspaper of record.

Talk:Lapidary

message: I've made some additions y'all may like, but I've changed some statements about the term "lapidary" that I think don't agree with good dictionaries. Page History will reveal my meddling. The arts of a sculptor or stone-mason are generally too broad in scale to fall within the definition, is the main change I've made.

The arcane term/topic: "Hardstone carving" prolly shouldn't be there, (in a lede section or quasi-stub) —except for talk of a merger.

message: I think we are going to have to turn this into a disambiguation page, pointing to Harry Kim (Star Trek) and Harry Kim (mayor). Normally, I'm loath to append "(Star Trek)" to the title of an article on a Star Trek character, but in this case it appears that the mayor may have a stronger claim to having the article "Harry Kim" without any parenthetical clarifications.

replies: text: I looked at Wikipedia:Naming conventions for guidance on this issue. I did not find anything that gave a clear directive to this specific case.
