Talk:Base 11

message: The entire article needs to be rewritten for clarity.  The statement that undecimal requires 11 symbols for the decimals 0 through 10 is a restatement of decimal counting, as 0 through 10 in a traditional decimal counting system IS eleven decimals (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10).  Starting with two fists to represent zero is the same as is done with a decimal system.  In short, this article in fact explains little of undecimal and instead confuses the reader with the normal decimal system.
:I agree that this article could be more clear, however at the very least, the second paragraph you refer to ought to be deleted (or perhaps rewritten to include your nose as the eleventh digit, though that wouldn't seem to help much, given that you would still need a new word for that digit ("A"), and that was already described in the first paragraph). As it is, it obviously describes the decimal system rather than undecimal and seems likely to confuse readers. I won't delete now, respecting the seriousness of deleting content, but I would argue that it seems appropriate here. Phrenq 12:53, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: What's the area of Piel Island? I originally gave this as 50 acres and based the assessment on a careful measurement of an OS map. Other sources, most notably the BBC in their article about the King of Piel, give other figures, 20 acres in the case of the BBC. I would have thought 50 acres to be more accurate, judging by my own visits to the island. I also assessed the area of Roa Island in a similar manner. Maybe that needs reviewing as well.

thread_title:  Old English? Celtic? 

message: This article is about one use of the dative case for marking the "experiencer" with verbs of liking, lacking, feeling, etc., and the fact that in some languages, with some verbs, this dative noun phrase appears in the position normally occupied the subject. This is a notable phenomenon, but in my opinion it should be discussed directly (and with less multilingual detail) in the Dative case article. If the consensus is to keep this page, I suggest it should be renamed "Dative experiencer" or "Dative experiencer construction". CapnPrep 16:08, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

   L'étè me plaît.
   A moi, le printemps me plaît mieux.
(note the different word order) 
and in German:
   Der Sommer gefällt mir.
   Mir gefällt der Frühling besser.
Which I think is a somewhat different construction from "Mir ist kalt".

thread_title:  Italian, French, and German? 

message: The section on German shows a complete misunderstanding of how German grammar works. In the sentence "Mir ist kalt", the dative functions in no way whatsoever as a subject unless one is so locked into the English expression "I am cold" that no other relationship of these morphemes is possible. First position in a German sentence is hardly reserved for subjects. The explanation of "Mir war zu kalt um zur Kirche zu gehen" is also utter nonsense. One can just as easily say "Es war zu kalt, um zur Kirche zu gehen." Adding the "mir" is nothing more than the dative of interest. 
The same goes for a verb like "gefallen" or Italian "piacere" where one can paraphrase a translation so that the dative at least makes sense in English: "to be pleasing to."
I don't know Georgian, but the examples from Russian, German, or Spanish are just perfunctory explanations of a few ways the dative case works in these languages while English is over-referenced.
Basically, these sections should be trashed. --Janko (talk) 23:25, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Talk:List of people from Punjab

message: It has been suggested that List of Punjabis be merged into List of people from Punjab. I strongly disagree.
The List of people from Punjab page has been written by a person who has a myopic view of the Punjab(I can see from this from the content of the article).
For a page that lists famous personalities from the Punjab, we need to include all famous Punjabis; men and women; Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs; Indians and Pakistanis; Brahmins , Khatris, Rajputs, Tarkhans, Aroras , Banias and Jats.
That is the beauty of our province. We are of so many hues. I should know this because I have spent a lot of my time contributing to the List of Punjabis page. And now some rascal wants to poach on it.
Instead "of merging the List of Punjabis into List of people from Punjab", the latter article should be deleted. Period. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rajatjghai (talk • contribs) 
:Your recommendation would essentially be the same as merging the two articles. You are just saying that nothing from List of people from Punjab needs to be merged.

replies: text: I realize this is a very old question, but for those wondering, the English OVA titles shown here came from the covers of the original Japanese LD releases - they're essentially part of the design of the covers. Yes, they don't really relate to the Japanese titles given on the disks. Parts of them were reused for part of the US release, but in a convoluted fashion. The Japanese OVA 1 cover and title was used for the first disk of the US release (OVAs 1 and 2). The OVA 3 cover was used for the second disk (OVAs 3 and 4), with a slight truncation of the title to "Magic is so easy!" The OVA 2 cover was used for the third disk (OVAs 5 and 6), but with the title taken from OVA 6, slightly altered to "believe in yourself." Mahousu (talk) 14:32, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
