message: We regularly need to deal with toilet humour articles created by anons, such as the original version of this page. Note that it said These activites include vaginal or anal sex, which doesn't feature in any of the seven stories of sex-related abuse of horses currently described at pet-abuse.com as I write this. The semen present in one of these stories was a result of self-manipulation by the perpetrator, not penetration of the victim.

Talk:Economies of scope

message: Mads10580522 (talk) 00:29, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

message: This is the first time I see the Economy of Scope concept restricted to "marketing an distribution" issues. In 1983 Goldhar and Jelinek published an article in Harvard Business Review and presented the Eco of Scope as "an efficiency wrought by variety, not volume" (vs Eco of scale), including production issues (i.e. same plant producing two types of cars). If one of you has some information about this marketing limitation, I would be interested to know more about it. Thanks.
This article  suggests that economics of scope exist based on weak cost complementarity, where the marginal cost of producing one good decreases when the quantity produced of another good increases. In other words, producing a greater scope of products results in cost savings. For example, a farm that produces corn might benefit from also producing cattle, because the cow manure could be used to fertilize the corn.
----
By putting all the links to Marketing topics on the right hand side it makes it appear that economies of scope is limited only to Marketing and doesn't apply to other areas such as production. I think we should remove this. Just a thought.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.104.86.9 (talk) 13:20, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Complaint

message: I propose working these materials into the article ...
*"The notion of economies of scope is closely associated with the idea of (the) learning curve. This curve is convex to the origin and has a negative slope to confirm that the average cost declines as the size of production increases. There have been many uses of the learning curve in the field of marginal economics such as forecasting the requirements of production, scheduling operations, and pricing both inputs and output."Alhabeeb, M. J., and L. J. Moffitt. Managerial Economics: A Mathematical Approach, John Wiley & Sons, Incorporated, 2014. ProQuest Ebook Central (page 344)
*"The last word about the learning curve is to distinguish its effect from the effect of economies of scale, since both are involved in the cost reduction owing to production increase. (page 320)

Talk:Romantic ballet

message: well done, couldn't quite get round to this - here are some note to help you work on the page:
the romantic ballet period was defined by 
* the ethereal and supernatural - with ghosts, and spirits (the ballet blanc)
* the battle between good and bad / the battle for love (tragedy, death)
* exotic locations (interpretations of exotic dances)
* the cult of the ballerina
* Fillipo Taglioni the father of romantic ballet
* allegro - terre a terre light and quick to appear floating (ethereal and supernatural) (Italian school of Ballet technique)
don't forget
* La Valse Infernale (1831) (The Hellish Waltz) from the opera Robert le Diable (Robert the Devil) is considered the earliest example of romantic ballet and was choreographed by Fillipo Taglioni (it's the one with dead nuns who come back to life and dance about unrequited love)
* Emma Livry - last of the romantic ballerinas
* Clara Webster - also burned to death
* Jules Perrot choreographed the Pas de Quatre
* the fitted bodice (leaving the shoulders and neck bare), three quarter length bell shaped tutu (rather than the 'plate' tutu of classical (Russian) ballet) were designed by Eugene Lamy. BUT bare ankles and muslin costumes had been seen before that time (as had pointe work).
* the Italian school was responsible for the virtuoso ballet technique of the female dancers, the legacy of Carlo Blasis (1797 - 1878)  see
* the male dancers of the romantic ballet 
* August Bournonville (1805 - 1879) and his legacy -
I would suggest that narrative ballet is more appropriate than story ballet. 
the romatic period in ballet does not realy match the other arts. indeed may romatic ballets were danced to classical music and may classical ballets to romantic music (music runs classical to romatic)
perhaps choreographers would also be usefull? and discription of the styles that each of the famous five were so well known for.

thread_title:  great start 

message: This article is horribly inaccurate, and leaves out so much history about the true "players" of the Romantic movement in ballet - for example Paul (not Fillipo) Taglioni, Joseph Mazilier, Jean Coralli, and, most of all, Jules Perrot, who is to the Romantic ballet what Petipa is to the classical.
Marie Taglioni WAS NOT the first Ballerina to dance en pointe. It is not known for certain who was the first, but it surely wasn't her. 
Furthermore Fillipo Taglioni's original 1832 production of La Sylphide for the Paris Opera was far from being the first Romantic Ballet.....VERY VERY FAR!
Regarding the music of this era, in it's heyday (circa 1830 until 1850), the bulk of the music that such Ballerinas of the Romantic ballet as Marie Taglioni, Fanny Cerrito, Lucile Grahn, Carolina Rosati, Fanny Cerrito, and so on had their triumphs to was the music of Cesare Pugni.

Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Archive 18

message: I'm a little troubled by the widespread opposition to this nomination. I agree there have been some serious problems with this user's conduct on RfA in the past, but I'm concerned that people aren't giving a fair chance of reform. He has been more reasonable about his administratorship nominees, and I see little to no evidence that he would aggressively edit war. Adminship is a big deal to him, clearly, but I see no reason to think that this is out of anything that would lead to abuses. It seems like adminship is being viewed as a social validation. Which, in a lot of ways, it is - a recognition that someone has been a long-standing good contributor.
Is there anything that this user could do that would cause some of those opposing him to change their vote next time this comes up? Snowspinner 21:54, Jun 21, 2004 (UTC)
:Hi Snowspinner -- I don't know that we should carry out a long discussion here, but the fact is that I am sceptical (and I believe many others are too) about this user's denials about being User:AlexPlank / User:Perl / User:Greenmountainboy / User:Alexandros et al. Assuming I am correct, then this user has not reformed, and ought not be an admin, IMHO. It will be a while before I feel that it would appropriate in this case. In the past, many have given him the benefit of the doubt repeatedly, to the point of his being made an admin on Meta, and to me that was a mistake. However, whether I am correct or not about Lst27's identity, I don't believe that this represents a trend of not giving formerly problematic users a fair chance of reform. I appreciate your concerns, but I believe that this is a very specific situation, and will not apply to other candidates for adminship. Thanks, BCorr|Брайен 22:07, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Old talk

message: Someone should make an article or new paragraph describing Armfelts family origin. Not many people know (or care) that Armfelts family didn't descend from Finland but from Jämtland in Sweden. The first Armfelts, if I remember correctly, became either noblemen or "Friherre" in 1648 for bravery and/or service to the crown. Dammit! I should know this stuff. I think I'm gonna go look for some material and maybe write a new article or paragraph. :)
 User:217.209.24.157
Feel free to do that. The family's ancestry is not at all unusual for noble families of the Swedish realm. There are plenty of "great Finnish patriots" with roots as far away as in Skåne and the Netherlands. It's possible that there are some readers who will object to such a "swedification" of GM Armfelt, but most would probably react as me: "So what?"

message: His influence in Russia and loyalty to Wasa family led played a major part in convincing the Tsar Alexander that Finland would embrace Russian Tsar, especially if given priviledge of keeping old laws and government.
For Finnish people and Finland as a state, Armfelt is a great man and a Finnish patriot as well as a notorius Gustavian. When the Wasa family was thrown out his second best loyalty was for his home in the Österlandet ie. Finland.

:Feel free to expand on this. Encyclopedia Britannica, from where most of this text probably originates, relied heavily on what the British considered traditional sources, which in this case means Swedish. However, be careful not to duplicate mid-19th century myths. Finnish historians have pretty convincingly demonstrated that Alexander's and sucessors' acceptance of Finnish autonomy was a gradual process (until pan-Slavicist intellectuals unfortunately got the upper hand in the end of the century, and a reverse was attempted that got the most serious consequences on the Finns' view of Russia). /Tuomas 13:58, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: - a 2012 source. "TTo our knowledge, there is no scientific review of Minahan's work which evaluates the reliability and validity of the information Minahan presents in his articles. Although Francis Fukuyama (1996) published a very short review of Minahan's early edition of his encyclopedia, it does not give much information about the reliability of the book. Many scholars writing on nationalism started referring to this encyclopedia as a primary source, yet these studies do not provide an evaluation of the work as well...We do not claim the comprehensiveness of the database we compiled. On the contrary we realize that there are many factual errors and inconsistencies in Minahan's encyclopedia. Furthermore based on our reliability analysis, we were not able to validate the information regarding some of these "stateless nations". Of course absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence, yet for our purposes we did not add the stateless nations we could not validate into our analysis.

message: It's not acceptable to instead of drawing a circuit diagram draw a not-to-scale illustration with physical components connected through non-physical wire, using a (value)-large inductor as you might still find it in modern devices, a through-hole resistor that you wouldn't find, and a 1970's style film capacitor. I had to look for a minute at the figure and was wondering what it was trying to tell me. (I'm an electrical engineer, so maybe a bit overqualified for that kind of wondering, overthinking it?)
