message: My question is, Ric, did you get "permission" from the guy or gal who "invented" the grapevine or any other move/step the slide is composed of?  pffttt!
A lot of the article was original research or copied from other websites. A quick search does not locate anything I would accept as a definitive description of the origins. In the meantime, I've cut the article down to a version that is properly referenced and shouldn't be disputable. Any additional material around this subject should similarly be verified and sources provided. --Michael Snow 06:50, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Reverse short-channel effect

message: The article seems incorrect to me. RSCE is increase of the threshold voltage at shorter gate length, unlike normal short channel effect where Vth is lower in shorter devices (often called threshold voltage roll-off). As the article points out correctly, shorter devices have higher average doping concentration in the channel as the source and drain halos overlap. In addition, transient diffusion of dopants due to injection of point defects are shown responsible for the pile up of the dopants near the oxide interface and increase of the threshold voltage. --72.70.82.244

thread_title:  Dictionary article 

message: It's kinda hilarious. Like it's just part of our (citizens of the world) daily lives that there is no article about it, and obviously as it's a foreign concept, there's not really any reference to it in English. So... Just trust me, Syrups are used all over the world (sometime with different names), which is all basically "add 2 part juice and 8 part water and mix". What Americans drinks as Instant soft drink, "Kool Aid" etc', is an ancient form of instant soft drink. Syrup mixes better, easier to quantify, already dissolved (so it's mixing is 3 seconds). I think it's weird asking citation for something which is very real. See Monin (France), Fabbri (Italy), Brandbar (Ukraine)... Really just translate "Syrup Drink" to any language, look at the images, and you will see rows upon rows of colorful bottles, all made to mix with water. Sure, you can use it on shaved ice, or in cocktails, but believe me that the world wide syrup industry is not for industrial and alcoholic purposes. In my country at least, most people will think syrup is about item they use daily to make themselves tasty beverages, with no fountains. Where I live fountains using syrup is almost "secret". Just search for soda fountain and you'll see it's in 8 languages. What is common American tradition is almost unheard of in 90% of the world. Benderbr (talk) 10:42, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:1100–1200 in European fashion

message: I think I've said before (talk on 1400-1500 maybe), I feel we really should go for a longer period, say Early medieval European dress, covering c. 400 to 1200, or maybe 1100.

replies: text: I agree completely.  I like Early medieval European dress covering 400-1100. I have a good reference on Anglo-Saxon dress that has comparison to Continental images, which should be useful. - PKM 19:52, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll add these to the talk page there. Not sure I can do much before I go away. Johnbod 19:57, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I am happy with the break at 1100 - makes Early Medieval run roughly from the end of Roman Britain in 410 to the First Crusade in 1096.  One can make a case that the interaction between Europeans and the styles and fabrics of the East brought on by the Crusades triggered fashion as we know it (though that's oversimplified). - PKM 03:13, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I like the idea of having 1100 as the cut-off date for Early medieval European dress too. From the little I've managed to read, it seems that many of the costume features we usually associate with the period after the Early Middle Ages (i.e. the High Middle Ages) were introduced only from the 1100s onwards - e.g. surcoat, wimple, hood + shoulder cape combo, use of heraldry, etc. DanDs 06:00, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The "cappa/chaperon" hood/cape in simple form goes back to Late antiquity or beyond, I think you'll find, but let's make it 1100. I don't think female head-coverings were that different in the 10th & 11th Cs either. Johnbod 11:05, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

According to ja.wiki he originally saw himself as a left-wing activist, but after his prison sentence turned to fascism. However, even if he labels himself a fascist, it doesn't necessarily mean he is it (maybe part of his provocationism). I think people may be too occupied with giving him an ideological label.
