Talk:Climate of Minnesota/Archive 1

message: I had someone review this section and they agreed with one of the comments on film, and their suggestion was that Grumpy Old Men and Fargo be mentioned in this section.  I threw something together quick, but I'm definitely not a film expert, so if anyone is and can run with something like this please do:
"Minnesota's winters have also been noticed by Hollywood.  The 1993 film Grumpy Old Men is set in Wabasha, Minnesota during the winter season.  Winter activities such as ice fishing are main themes of the film.  The 1996 movie Fargo also features the backdrop of a Minnesota winter, but in this instance it was a much more bleak portrait.  Several scenes in the film portray the Minnesota winter as barren and descolate, with ever present cold temperatures, and snow blown, white out landscapes." Gopher backer 16:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I moved the following text from the article to the talk page.
::This﻿ was played during the selection on the ramp at Auschwitz when Jews were sent either to the left or right meaning life or instant death... This was confirmed in Arthur Dodd's book "Spectator in Hell".
Does a reference to this belong here?  Its usage here doesn't seem to have any connection to Goethe's play.  If anything its usage by the Nazi's is highly ironic.  I moved it here in case anyone wanted to discuss it because its subject is more weighty than the usual trivia reference.DavidRF (talk) 20:46, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Auschwitz reference 

message: This music intertwined with the history of Hungary in the 20th century. Was often played by the Free Hungarian Radio, from Budapest in those days between 23rd October and 4th November 1956, in the hope of national freedom, and to win against the Soviet regime. Thus later became a real historical symbol of these events, besides the Hungarian flag cut-out the communist coat-of-arms, for decades, until our days. When the Communists came to power again, they banned to play this in the radio, later in the TV too (the TV broadcastings here became regular only in 1957), and on all public music stages. After 1990, at the fall of communism, it is used for commemorations, festivities, and on the other hand as background music for audio history and filmed documents about the 1956 period. I hope, my example of the later use much better than a Nazi joke.

message: Yeah, this article is not only an ADVERT ("native dbase support through a proprietary (but very fast!) driver..."), but is also a link farm, to increase the page rank of their own website. This page, because it belongs to wikipedia, has a larger page rank than it SHOULD have (because it doesn't have enough links in to earn a page rank of 5!!!), and as a result of this page linking to their website so many times, their website has a page rank of 4 (which is fairly high). Had this page not linked to their page more than once, their rank would only be a 3, or less. Had this page not been on wikipedia, the same holds true.

message: This article is almost completely uninformative with regards to what so-called "computational engineering" is and what types of techniques and methods are used. In fact, it reads almost as if it was copied directly from a college course catalog.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.168.173.97 (talk) 17:48, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reads like a college catalog 

message: This article has many issues with it. A lot of what I want to say is not new, and has been on the talk page for years. Still...
1) Issue of redirect/deletion.
The redirects are a mess. Computational Engineering goes to computational science , while computational engineering  comes here. Who ordered that? The arguments for deletion/merging are strong, but I think the article can stay. However there needs to be a clear demarcation between the science and engineering, and that this needs to focus on engineering, while the remaining science stuff gets moved to science.
2) Poor writing.
No really; this does read like a university course selection manual.
3) Sadly, it seems the relevant WikiProject, WikiProject Engineering  have not taken a bigger interest in this article. It has taken 6 years to give a priority rating (still pending at time of writing).
4) I agree with 75.168.173.97's criticism that virtually no information is given on the tools and methods of CSE or its relation (i.e. similarities & differences) to scientific computation. ( PS. Upon nearly a week's  reflection I do think there is some info regarding methods and tools, considering the article's length.  Ema--or (talk) 06:57, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Sverdlov-class cruiser

message: To quote:
Operating on their own as commerce raiders they would be extremely vulnerable in good weather to USN aircraft carriers and the few remaining Baltimore, 8 inch gunned cruisers, but the RNs few remaining Colony and Tiger class gun cruisers probably lacked the range [2] and speed to provide any answer and the Daring and Forrest Sherman inchoate cruiser destroyer, didn't, if as planned the Sverdlovs had been used to intercept trade with major UK food basket in the Plate off Buenos Aires, the Battle of North Cape suggesting the Royal Navy trade route cruisers, lacked the rough water speed and armour to deal with, even solo heavy raiders, unless aided by communications intercept and heavy guns.

message: Isn't it better if there is peer review of all Peer review nominations in Wikipedia:WikiProject_India/Article_alerts rather than having people search this specific page to get a Peer review done? Is there any need for a different page for the same?
--Vinay84 (talk) 07:00, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Hello Peer Reviewers. I work with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors who attempt to copy-edit all articles so marked. We've encountered a seemingly endless stream of unreferenced, un-infoboxed, stub articles in highly fractured language, covering small villages, minor festivals, temples, etc. Many are so poorly written that they're unintelligible. While we have done our best (and have edited hundreds of such stubs), the result is unsatisfying to us and to any subsequent reader.
Rather than copyedit them, I propose that they be sandboxed until they're in some kind of shape. An alternative would be to merge them into their nearest "parent" article until enough content accumulates (beyond a few sentences) to be of distinct interest to someone.
I'd appreciate your thoughts. If I should repeat this request in another forum, please let me know.

Talk:Ala Gertner

message: The page about Anna Heilman claims that Gertner "betrayed" her
co-conspirators by leaking the plot to an SS officer:
Estusia was betrayed when Ala Gertner told an SS officer she had befriended and trusted about the plot. She, Roza, Regina, and Ala were taken to the "Bunker" inside the main camp and tortured for months. They never gave up Hana's name. They only gave names of Sonderkommando members who were already dead.
Estusia, Regina, Ala and Roza were hanged on January 5, 1945, just under two weeks before the advancing Soviet Red Army reached Auschwitz. The entire women's camp was forced to watch the executions. ...
If true, shouldn't this be discussed on Gertner's page? Eclecticos 07:58, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

While in this ICAC role, he died, aged 47, of a heart attack. 
From his ICAC obituary: "qualified as a barrister and solicitor of the Supreme Court of New Zealand in 1970. He joined the Legal Department of the Hong Kong Civil Service as a Crown Counsel in 1979 and rose to the rank of Law Officer. In 1988 Peter became Crown Solicitor and head of the Civil Division of the Legal Department. Peter established a fine reputation as a lawyer, particularly in the field of administrative law.
