Talk:Road marking

message: Road marking is a clear and concise term for an article on this subject, and avoids use of the confusing term "pavement" which has different meanings in different flavours of English. If there is a clear and concise term for an article that avoids confusion, surely it should be used.  Vote in favour of the merge from pavement marker (roads).  Vote also in favour of the merge from lane marking--jrleighton 01:49, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

text: I also agree with both merges. -- Jlin 23:05, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

text: I'm confused by the term Road marking. A road can be marked on a map or with graffiti, yet neither of those is mentioned in the  Lane#Lane_markings,  Pavement marker (roads) or Road_marking articles. IMHO, a term such as Road traffic markings would provide a needed improvement in clarity while still being reasonably concise.--Wiley 00:31, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

text: I agree with both merges, as well as renaming to "Road traffic markings" (or something similar) as per above.  Amalas 19:30, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

text: Road marking is not a clear enough term for this topic.  I agreee that the articles need to be combined since there is some overlap and they are related.  This article is mostly about what most readers would call painted lines so it is a subset of markings.  This article is also to US centric.  Vegaswikian 18:55, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
Talk:Nutmeg (association football)

message: Not sure if anyone knew this, and I'm not sure if it's true myself, but I've also heard the whole "salad tomato" thing is a reference to a man's testicles, and that since a "salad" is so embarrassing it's kind of like taking away the guy's manhood.

message: I would like to point out that in Brazil one of the most common nicknames for a nutmeg is also "ovinho" (little egg), and this does not seem to be listed.
Here is an example:

translation:
"Caneta (pen), ovinho (little egg), janelinha (little window), ...
Doesn't matter what you call it, it's always appreciable"
etc
Then is linked a youtube video to a nutmeg compilation.
and another example:

Talk:Dynamic recompilation

thread_title: untitled

message: In the second paragraph, what the heck is Corn? And second, the example really has little to with
Dynamic Recompilation and is closer to High Level Emulation. Dynamic Recompilation stores blocks of recompiled code in memory, so that it doesn't have to decode and simulate instructions everytime. 
lda #4
adc ($4), x
would become something like:
mov eax, 4
push eax
push eax
call getX86Addess
mov ebx, eax
pop eax
add ebx, edx
adc eax, [ebx]
and decoding will continue until a branch/jump/call is reached. 24.13.122.71 01:52, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Hello there!  Well, JIT should be considered as a form of dynamic recompilation, so it would be better to keep these articles separate.  Dynamic recompilation is a much broader term as it includes other approaches used in emulators and virtual machines, for example it covers various cross-platform emulations. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 15:13, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Storytelling game

message: There exist storytelling games in which the game master has the same authority over the story as in a traditional RPG, using systems of rules for abilities instead of numbers. (i.e. I'm running one LOL)  The ... tone of this article seems to suggest that storytelling games lack the amount of structure of traditional RPGs, and this is not nessicarily true. (might even be POV) It depends on how the rules are set up. --Nerd42 02:24, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I am somewhat concerned about the excising of 70% of the external links on this page.  If web links can be located for these games, why should they not be included?  They seem to fit the requirements for notability, though the requirements should be more lax since we are not talking about an article about them, but a link.  They should be restored.

message: I was concerned that a number of obvious examples were missing from the discussion. To my mind shouldn't the following games be included?
* Long Live the King 
* Once Upon a Time 
* The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Von Munchausen 
Once Upon a Time and The Adventures... are strictly story-telling, while Long Live the King is more strongly role-playing.

message: Mighty Wind was an unexpected work of comic genius. Can't someone enlarge that section? Levy may have made money from the teen franchise but what the hell, as artistry it was nothing. Mighty Wind is his masterpiece.  Take a look at the impassioned comments beneath A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow on Youtube. Levy had to write the music, play it, sing it, and perform the character!

Talk:Fermi surface

message: I think a good start for the first sentence would be: "In condensed matter physics, the Fermi surface is the isoenergetic surface (a surface where the energy is constant) in reciprocal space that contains the highest energy electrons at zero temperature Rafaeldelgrande
The first sentence "In condensed matter physics, the Fermi surface is the surface in reciprocal space which separates occupied from unoccupied electron states at zero temperature." is just plain wrong. Even at k-points outside of the Fermi surface states will be occupied. Just less occupied.
Two points of note: I have taken the liberty of removing the "stub" designation; I have reused my figure from "spin density wave."     I would have made a new figure for this article, but off the top of my head couldn't come up with anything better anyway. -- Alison Chaiken 03:05, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Would it make sense to use tables to display some of the demographic information instead of paragraphs?  Specifically, replacing: 
The racial makeup of the city was 79.26% White, 1.52% African American, 0.45% Native American, 13.02% Asian, 0.18% Pacific Islander, 2.46% from other races, and 3.11% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 5.61% of the population.
With: 
 
Race             	% of Population
White            	79.26%
Asian            	13.02%

message: This article has only ever once had a citation. (I checked every single version since page creation.) The page was originally created with a copyright violation  from the old Encarta encyclopedia , with a link to Encarta's 'France' article at the bottom. Within 15 minutes, the creator of this page edited out the copy vio and replaced it with something else completely , sans citation. Over the years there have been the occasional additions to the page; none have used citations. One could safely say that this entire article is — and has been —original research.
It looks like this article is wikilinked directly from just a few places:
* Template:France topics
* Template:Social class
* Urban decay
* Sans-culottes
I might suggest this article be draftified, and removed from the templates and articles that link to it.
