message: I propose that Dan Miller, Daniel Miller, and Danny Miller be merged together into Dan Miller.  The last names are identical and the first names are common variants of each other.  Lisatwo 19:40, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Somebody named "Daniel Miller" could potentially be known as any of the three names that I propose to merge.  If someone were looking for a "Daniel Miller" that happened to be a subject of a Wikipedia article named "Dan Miller (something)" or "Danny Miller", would they be willing to browse through the several variants of this name?  About half of the "Dan Miller"s and "Danny Miller"s with their own article seem to be named Daniel.  Lisatwo 02:39, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Du Fu

message: From the History section: Since the Song dynasty, critics have called Du Fu the "poet saint" (詩聖 shī shèng). This sentence has an error because it talks about the historical aspects of Du Fu's works; he is called 诗史, shī shǐ, the "historian-poet".

Talk:Newton's notation

message: Does anyone know if this notation is actually used today? I've asked several a few math professors and some didn't even know it existed, while the others said it was never used.
:In physics, it's commonly used in basic mechanics problems where you know you'll only be dealing with first and second time derivatives (e.g., simple harmonic oscillator).  Obviously \dot{x} is much quicker to write than \frac{dx}{dt} or even x^\prime(t), but since it's of such limited usefulness it's usually seen as a special-case shorthand than an actual alternative notation system.  — Laura Scudder ☎ 15:13, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Fluxion 

message: Does this article need to exist anymore considering a section of the article on notation already contains everything here? IRWolfie- (talk)
Agreed...  This article is too short and the content too trivial to deserve its own article.  Besides, Newton's notation is mentioned in the article "Derivative" and the fluxions are mentioned briefly in the article "Newton's method"; so there is nothing original in this article.  It would, however, be nice to have an article on fluxions -- assuming there is enough to discuss at a significant level.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brydustin (talk • contribs) 18:22, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Delete? 

message: There is a readily available classical work which gives details of the Newtonian fluxion notation:
Florian Cajori,

Dover Publications, Inc.

I think that it's better to merge Newton's notation with Notation for differentiation and delete article of Newton's notation.
In particular, the discussion on the fluxions begin with article 567 (p.197 of the Second Volume).

thread_title:  Kalendae fabariae 

message: Is the English word "carnal" derived from the name of the nymph whose domain is hinges or the goddess who ruled over the heart? I know which I associate the word more closely with. Is "carnal knowledge" what you learn from peeking in the keyhole? --Calieber 08:37, 11 Oct 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: No, carnal knowledge is "knowledge of the flesh". The word "carnal" derives from neither goddess (directly), but from the Latin word caro, meaning "flesh". It's thus cognate with carnivore ("flesh-eater"), carnation ("flesh-colored"), incarnate ("in the flesh"), etc. Thus "carnal desire" is not lusting after keyholes, but lusting after bodily pleasures, and "carnal remains" are what remains of the body, not remains of doorhinges. I like your etymology too, though. -Silence 12:06, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Shoah (disambiguation)

message: Is there something that we anticipate covering here that would not belong in Holocaust?   Will there be more detail here, so that this is a section breakout of the Holocaust article?  If so, why isn't this linked from Holocaust?   I don't object to a separate article, but I don't think "being the hebrew name for..." is enough to warrant a separate article.  Thanks in advance. 64.254.131.102 18:04, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I came to the talk page to post a similar comment.  IMO, if this page exists at all, it should be about the word.  The history of the Holocaust itself should appear under the name more familiar in English. --Delirium 07:47, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

text: Me too. I was about to start improving the 'beginnings' section (which is currently very poor) when I realised it would be a lot of work, and it would only duplicate material in the Holocaust article. --Squiddy | (squirt ink?) 10:27, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

text: No, they're not synonymous.  Shoah refers refers to the genocide of the Jews, as Porajmos (a term that I think was inspired by the specificity of "Shoah") refers to the genocide of the Roma.  If we had a separate Shoah article, it would I think be similar in scope to the Porajmos article.  Of course, this would be complicated by the large overlap with the Holocaust article, as the Jewish experience figures (rightly, I think) very large in that article.  Still, with care, I think a decent Shoah article could be realized, expanding on specific anti-Jewish actions and the lasting effects on the Jewish community.--Pharos 15:38, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
