replies: text: I decided to be bold and move the page. When I moved the page I noticed that it had been moved before, in 2007 to (Latter Days Saints), but was moved back to (Mormon). The user who moved it back said ""Latter Day Saints" is only used if the person was never associated with the LDS Church--"Mormon" for LDS Church memebers". I don't think this argument is supported by the Manual of Style on the Latter Day Saint movement though. Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 19:22, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: Name Change

message: The Seventh East Press did an article called "Restricted Church Document Stolen" in the Jan 18th, 1982 issue details how Ehat's notes came to be widely circulated. I think it is too much detail for this page, but I'm happy to add more info. A PDF of the article is here. Be advised that information about how Ehat accessed the material contradicts information in The Tanners on Trial. According to Tanners on Trial, Ehat did not have permission from the historical department to "examine the diaries." I believe The Tanners on Trial is more accurate and that Ehat was trying to protect his source (Dean Jessee) in giving information to Seventh East Press, since he admitted to doing so in The Tanners on Trial. The part about who helped to circulate copies is probably accurate though. Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 19:15, 10 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Raúl Prebisch

message: I think it's problematic to align John Maynard Keynes with the orthodox and neoclassical school of economics.  Keynes offered systematic challenges to assumptions of mainstream theory, despite more inclusive revisions of his work later on.  I just want to emphasize the dramatic difference between Keynes and the neoclassical thought of Milton Friedman and the like.

I beliebe that the correct english name for CEPAL would be ECLAC (and not ECLA) because it´s name is "Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean". As a matter of fact, the URL name of CEPAL is www.eclac.org

thread_title:  Merge discussion 

message: The lengthy sections on the police and fire departments are out of balance with the rest of the article.  I question their notability for the level of detail that is given.  The sections are long enough to be individual articles, where they can be independently reviewed for notability. --Ken Gallager (talk) 14:19, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I thought so too but assumed it was just an innocuous vanity thing by local residents that more or less fell within current wiki policy and there was no discussion and what there was contrary to the tag, that's why I removed it. Lycurgus (talk) 17:34, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Also noting that the tag you replaced also directly contradicts your text above, i.e. if the text is not notable enough for a section in wikipedia how could it possibly merit an article on its own? Lycurgus (talk) 18:39, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I see what you mean now.  While I think it might not be notable, I was also aware that someone put a lot of work into these sections, so I didn't want to just undo it.  Having split out detailed portions of articles before, I know that once the new articles are created, they get more scrutiny for notability, which is what I was looking for.  If there is a procedure to evaluate the notability of just these sections, I'd be fine with that.--Ken Gallager (talk) 18:47, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  I live in Durham, and I appreciate the great work our public safety officers do: but I am not sure we need to have their histories detailed in this Wikipedia article.  The fire department is somewhat noteable because they are a joint venture between the University and the Town, but that could be disposed of in about half a sentence.  The Town of Durham's Police Department is just an average small-town police department: it does its job quietly and competently without making news, which is as things ought to be.  It's not even the only police force in town: UNH (like many state universities) has its own police department. I humbly suggest that the author of these two sections consider finding space somewhere for a web site devoted to the forces' history and we can link to that from this article. Timothy Horrigan (talk) 05:03, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Michael J. Fox

message: Fox has four children with his current wife, but I saw an interview with him by the CBC - it's on YouTube but maybe you want to see if there are other, clearer sources where he states that he was in relationship with a beautiful, brilliant young up and coming actress (his words) and, again in his words, he states, "I made her a single parent" and the goes on to express his regret.
Given that he made this statement - and you can see him do it but it's a little hard to follow thanks to the Parkinson's dyskenisa - it is surely noteworthy. Someone with a better ear than I have might be well to acturately transcribe it.
Video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFts5Qdrqt0 sorry I don't have the exact timestamp but there's probably other stuff that can be pulled from here as it's quite revealing and (to his credit) honest. 188.31.140.27 (talk) 15:40, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

message: What kind of models is this talking about?  Model cars?  (Not computer models?). Needs more context. RJFJR
Code 3 is actually a company that takes model cars and trucks and customizes them to look like real fire, police, and EMS vehicles that are actually in use (or were in use at one time).  Code 3 can also refer to a mode of response for emergency vehicles, which means "use lights and siren".  I moved the page so that I could add a disambiguation page.

I'd have to agree.  I came to this page researching individual terms for a class, and if there were not a "spot resolutions" page, I would have been stymied.

Talk:Umov effect

message: Is there an explanation for the physical cause of this effect?--Srleffler 07:04, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The roughness of the surface doesn't matter. Each point on the rough surface can have its own plane of reflection if necessary. In practice, the plane that is relevant is defined by where the source of light and the observer are. The plane you care about is the one that contains the light source, the observer's eye, and the point on the moon's surface the observer is looking at. The approximation comes not in ignoring the rough surface, but in treating the Sun and the observer's eye as a point source and point receiver.--Srleffler 17:21, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Should we have a blooper section? In the 2nd last segment, the wife wishs her dead husband returned just before his accident. In that situation, the guy wouldn't have been filled with embalming fluid, as car crash occured mere seconds after fatal heart attack. Yet, when she then wishs him alive, he comes to life filled with embalming fluid. That's a blooper. GoodDay (talk) 23:08, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Not a blooper if you know the nature of these wish granting Chinese figurines and bottle genies and monkey's paws: They are at heart all tricksters and best avoided all together.  Second wish was to bring him back to the way he was just before the accident but he was still dead because he died of a heart attack which caused the accident; third wish she wished to bring him back alive to live forever. Now, I have not seen the movie in decades, but apparently the 3rd wish revert did a reset to how his body was before the second wish and not how it was after, so he was still embalmed when she wished him to eternal life. -- 67.235.68.74 (talk) 18:34, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Scoubidou

message: Is this the same stuff also known as gimp ? Tuf-Kat 07:10, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Appears to be. In my region back in the 90s, we just always called the style and the thread gimp based on the fact that you can only make it with gimp thread. Never heard it called "scoubidou." That seems to be a Francophone or Europe-only thing. If you said that here, people would think you're talking about the cartoon. You can only make this stuff with gimp thread, so maybe the two articles should be merged? ForestAngel (talk) 16:58, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

text: Agree.  Gimp also has other meanings - it was a textile braid before it was plastic.  It appears to me that these techniques derive from those used in leather braiding, which doesn't seem to have an article here.  I would think an article on the craft would be best, with the various materials under a "materials" section. - PKM 00:01, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

The comment is "In July 2004 German and Dutch research showed that scoubidou appears to contain an excessive amount of phthalates."

Second, is it relevant enough to put in the intro to the article? — Bigwyrm watch mewake me 03:47, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Nationality 

message: Have any of you read anywhere where people say Zack and Lisa are brother and sister? I know for a fact that that's incorrect. I think people say that because they are probably both African-Americans. All I know is that when DOAX first came out, and when all those rumors were running around about the game, like when people said that Zack was the only male playable character. The thing about Lisa and Zack being siblings also went along with those rumors.
--If it we're true it would be officially stated in the storyline and such, They may be both black but it doesn't trigger an abrupt family relation between the two they're just both African American characters.-- [SC fanfreak]

thread_title:  Possible copyright problem 

message: This article in its current form appears to be far from concise or readable. Many sections also seem to be outdated or irrelevant.
To highlight a few points:
- Most sections do not include a critical analysis of the topic. It's no secret that transportation in India is generally plagued by various challenges. Safety, efficiency, quality, etc are some. While it's great to highlight improvements and progress, it's equally important to talk about issues. This is necessary to provide readers with an accurate perspective of existing conditions.
- Irrelevant detail and excessively verbose sections have poor readability. As a country-level page, excessive mentions of specific initiatives by cities/states is unnecessary detail and can be moved to the transportation page of respective sub-regions. In the "Auto" section for example, this sentence on electric Autorickshaws goes into incredibly unnecessary detail: "E-Rickshaws are made in fiberglass or metal body, powered by a BLDC Electric Motor with max power 2000W and speed 25 km/h."
- Assumptions, poor research, or incorrect/inaccurate statements occur multiple times throughout the article. Statements such as "Like monorail, light rail is also considered as a feeder system for the metro systems." should be avoided as there is no concrete basis for such a conclusion. The only operational tram network (Kolkata) in the country is in-fact much older than the city's metro system.
Hope all of us can take these suggestions as constructive feedback and contribute to the improvement of this article! :) Nihar1024 (talk) 19:54, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
