draft about "has overcomes"

   Greetings, honorable Wiki-colleagues who are learning English as a second language.
   I found the phrase "Seira has overcomes many ordeals" in the accompanying article, and beg to offer you my humble explanation of how I have attempted to understand what was intended. In the accompanying article (the article accompanies this "talk" or "discussion" page), and replaced the versions I found with English words, which together have the meaning that I believe would make sense of that English-language narrative. I humbly suggest that adding the letter S (in its lower-case form, s) at the end of an English word has two very common, but quite different purposes, that are not as logically connected as one might hope.
   The S at the end of has (an S that in this case has the "voiced sound" that you hear at the beginning of either of our names for the letter Z. (Americans pronounce the name of the letter Z as "zee", but British people ("Britishers" or "the British") pronounce it "zed".) Surely a sensitive ear could find differences in the sound of the s at the end of "overcomes", but native speakers treat it as a voiced sound, again not the "normal sound of S" but another instance of a "Z-like sound".
   I have made a point to identify those two Z-like sounds, each represented by S, at the ends of the adjacent words, to say this about the two instances of s at the respective ends of those two words: the S in has and the S in overcomes look and sound alike, but one belongs there and one does not. Both have (a verb that is usually about holding or possessing or owning) and overcome (a verb about winning or avoiding failure) can take on forms that end in S, but there is something going on about the relationship between those two verbs that is crucial -- that is necessary -- to understand if the grammar is to be correct. There are a small band of "auxiliary verbs", and this is not a place suitable for listing them all, but "to have", and "to be" are probably the most powerful or expressive or versatile or flexible two, and apparently those shared qualities have helped them be made use of so often that they have special rules that put them among the irregular verbs. "Run" is also irregular ("runned" is not a legitimate form of "to run", but using "ran" in its place pretty much tells the whole story. I refuse to overwhelm you with the full conjugation of "to be", but rather than "haved" for the verb "to have" (very similar conceptually to "to own" and "to possess" and "to keep" and "to hold") we say "had" ("haved" probably shrank into "ha'd" and in the process started to hint "this is something i had long ago, and that made it mine, and i continue to have it and intend to continue having in spite of anyone wanting to have it instead of me."

   Well, we're off to a bit of a bad start, and that's likely mostly my fault. What is it, Sunday, it says here. Friday, we'd only set up one rope, and i was next in line for a second climb on that one. I got interested in the beginning of its left side while the right was being climbed, and not being protected, didn't venture much more than a foot off the ground. Which of course is too much, so with age 71 being just 3 weeks away i finally cracked a bone, followed by a bushwhacking evacuation down hill to the cars. It's something like a half-inch deep but without displacement, so color me cranky on crutches.
   The "Americium" text you're defending reads "The Americas, as the element was first..."

For anyone who doesn't live in Latin America (where injustices suffered at the hands of American policy & power color local iconology (certainly understandably, and arguably justly) with "getting what's ours back" -- "American" as an English word (and even more so "America") is most likely to be intended to evoke the US, which (while it dominates North America) also has strongly integrated parts in the Caribbean (closer to Colombia than to Florida -- namely Puerto Rico and to a lesser extend U.S. Virgin Islands) and in the mid-Pacific. If "America" or "the Americas" as a continent needs evidence before citing the element, then

for User talk:Double sharp re [Pre-calcium elements]

What I meant with "pre-calcium" elements is that Group 13 is considered as Group 3 (such as boron and aluminium) in high school chemistry, when the simplified "up to 8 valence electrons" idea is used. And in doing so, elements calcium and before are the only elements to be mentioned with valence shells, since in reality post-calcium elements have a completely different valence structure. While Wikipedia is meant to be targetted at an expert level, we get a few high school readers too, and they may potentially think why the real Group 13 is not mentioned in an article named "Group 3 element". Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 06:38, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

I understood what you were getting at, but I also think it would be better to do it with terms that people actually use; currently the hatnote reads "For the other group formerly named Group III (boron group), see Group 13 element.", which I think is clarifies what is going on a little better. (Also, is it really "group 3" and not "group III"? In high school it was always Roman numerals, at least for me – and we certainly did cover the first row of transition metals from Sc to Cu.)
P.S. You won't actually go very far wrong thinking of the valence electrons of transition metals as just being ns and (n−1)d, in about the same way you would think of those of main-group elements as ns and np. Double sharp (talk) 06:53, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

   The phrase is IMO terminally vague outside the context where it's uttered. Perhaps there's a policy specifically covering such phrases, but i can't recall noticing mention of one, in the exactly 14 years i've been editing. I was actually tempted to create a redlink that, if hovered, would in effect complain (for the attention of editors) about use of the phrase inside the quote marks. I find that phrase unencyclopedic no matter whether with or without the quotes that i grafted onto it (but slightly less harmfully so, with the punc'n inviting the suggestion that i intended them as the WP:Scare quotes that we so demean. In the context of that Dab, i insinuate that my speculation that the producers of the show have a reasonably specific meaning for the phrase (stressing the aspects of being an entrepreneur, or of being in the inner circle working for the entrepreneur(s) of an enterprise, that those producers consider worthy of their journalism). (That is not quite the usage of scare-quotes that i think we target with our policy.) By these quotes i insinuate mistrust of the source that used the phrase, more than likely without any kind of quotes around it.) Jerzy•t 09:25, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

1st name vs. DoD/DoB

== My Aug 2017 edit ==

   A colleague said on my talk page : ... I don't understand what your reasons are (see your edit summary here) for changing the surname list to a non-alpha order one. Could you expand on your summary? Also, what is SAE (searches of WP were not helpful)? To my thinking, alpha order is the simplest system for surname pages, both for editing and for usability as a reader, as well as the most widely used system of order. Where would an editor place additional Trice people having articles within this scheme? Thanks very much...   I, the humble colleague in question, grow old, and increasingly (but hopefully still only occasionally) screw up -- as in this case where a familiar S-and-two-vowels was good enuf to satisfy my feeble brain when it reached out to grasp for the long-standing WP institution (and quite possibly relevant to our common concern) of SIAs. (As far as i know, SAE is the Society of Automotive Engineers, which promulgates numbered standards they have found valuable in their industry.)
   Articles are of course what the whole WP superstructure exists for the sake of. And SIAs (a quite specific and non-prosy form of Article -- which is what the A stands for) were canonified to do work that cannot be done by WP:DABs.
   But DABs: -- which are (as also are REDIRECTs) pages in the Article (or "Main") namespace (bcz neither can serve its function without sharing the namespace, even tho both Dabs and Rdrs are explicitly and emphatically not a form of WP:article) --had sometimes been misused for purposes beyond the necessarily quite strict limits of the Dab'ing function; an SIA is (as one of its purposes) what you use to give more help to users' article-finding, than would it be efficient for Dabs to be cluttered with that function.
   Moving on, from how i befuddled you, to explication of my summary, i see that i waxed poetic, at least to the extent of a metaphor::The stiff scrub brush of keeping SAEs (and Dabs) useful to users: A surname page is perhaps the most common species within the genus of SIAs; it is indeed common to see them organized alphabetically by first name, which indeed ::# is familiar and::# very convenient for editors to add to but::# of very little help to readers, and ::# rules out would most often be helpful to readers.: Commenting on those in turn,::1. People already know how to use a phone book, or the index at the back of a non-fiction book,::2. All the editor has to do is look at the first name (and keep an eye open for outlier spellings of the surname, like "Stein with an E-I/ and Styne with a Y")::3. In the surname case at hand (and surnames in general), the user either a. knows the first name, b.will recognize it on the list, or c. must rely on other differences as the means of finding the desired article::4.a. The user is on the page, almost certainly, not because they know the given name, but bcz they know the surname; if they knew the given name, they'd have typed it in (along with the surname they typed in to reach Dab page) and go straight to the bio. (True, it may be that the given name has multiple spellings or nicknames, and they'll go to the one or two clusters of first names, say the Bobs and the Roberts, but (to degrees that depend mostly on the frequency of the surname) they'd be better served by having Bob Schmitt (disambiguation), Bobby Schmitt (disambiguation), Robb Schmitt (disambiguation), and Rob Schmitt (disambiguation) all be redirects to Robert Schmitt (disambiguation), and have that list sorted other than alphabetically. (More abt that soon.)

I think Diane Ruble was an author (of an article in 2017 Sept issue of SA, which was a few ahead of that by Keilana/Emily Temple-Wood) whose name seemed unaccountably familiar to me, and who lacks a WP bio. One of her SA photos struck me as awkward, in a way that made me wary of risking being the creator of a bio that could be unwelcome in drawing attention of wiki-fans to her, if (for whatever reason) she prefers a lower profile. I prolly should do a little more orderly and intensive Web-presence survey on her, esply in light of arguably having a colleague in common. OK, no question nearer end than start of her career, and so far nothing further to construe as hint of vulnerability.

Fate is distinct from destiny, and fate should not redirect to destiny. Fate can be a function of determinism and mathematical probability distributions. Destiny can be a function of free will and mathematical probability distributions. Anyone with me here ? 69.253.243.188 (talk) 03:40, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Our destiny is going to eventuate and we will have to live or suffer the consequences and delight of whatever eventuates. I personally hold to a strong Christian conviction and am happy to hold to that.

   I'm not sure whether 69.... and i are on the same page or not, but i do think it's valuable at least acknowledge that the word "fate" can have two different meanings that can be used by evoking Fates and their analogues: the phrases "eventual destiny" and "eventual fate" to me mean the same, namely what will, when everything of interest is "said and done", be the case.

Your fate or destiny as to most specific future outcomes is unknowable. Unless you believe in an immortal soul, free will, or one (which? Copenhagen interpretation? Many-worlds model of the interpretations of quantum mechanics, or in "mystical" violations of determinism, you probably believe that there is only one state of the universe is going to be for all meaningful circumstances the end of your individuality, a death of one sort or another, which i believe comes for everyone now (and probably) ever alive. What i'm calling fate is a more in detail knowable outcome, presumably because you deserve it and believe the Universe or a deity are committed to justice; what i'd accept as a meaningfully different alternative is a predictable "destiny", as in knowing the pretty certain result if you ingest sufficient cyanide, or knowing that the weather pattern and that avalanche below you combine to rule out your return from the Everest death zone. 04:47, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

   Maybe there's a "History continuity disrupted" template for this; i'd be grateful if someone who knows at least pings me from this page.

   In any case, the page apparently was converted from covering one town to covering the other, without renaming (but -- one hopes -- at least accompanied by copying the text of) the original. As a fitfully recovering obsessive-compulsive, it's probably healthy for me to resist the impulse to

Discussion about Talk:Names of China anomaly

= 2003 - 2006 (along with matters that concern archiving of that period's discussion =
=== About old talk contribs that concerned the article "Names of China"  ===

   For many articles, content of the corresponding article-talk pages (possibly most of them, and probably nearly all busy ones) is routinely retired and preserved, from sections whose discussion has subsided for some period of time, and generally, such sections from a given article's talk go into a common special-purpose "archive" page, until it is deemed appropriate (due to time span covered, or size of the talk-archive page) to start a new archive page for subsequent talk re that article.
   The archive pages likewise lie within the talk namespace, A.K.A. (more formally) the article-discussion namespace.
   I have undertaken this meta-discussion because there is at least one contrib that either has been misfiled or is inaccurately dated, and first among several plausible causes would be that discussion content subsequently described with "ConvertIPA: Since done." was removed without keeping even a more detailed summary (let alone the whole discussion, as is our normal practice). (I quote the phrase "ConvertIPA: Since done." since it is the current title of the existing section, within which i am about to edit bcz of the notice of such an unarchived section.) I expect to learn (from the edit history) that a discussion, begun in 2003 (and conceivably lasting into subsequent years), was resolved and (improperly, but presumably innocently) thrown away, in line with someone's opinion that no one should bother worrying about what went before.
   It would be silly to imagine that similar irregularities at WP are frequently harmful in themselves, but the unresolved existence of innocent anomalies of similar appearance substantially increases the likelihood that one or a few wolves (concealed falsifications) could hide among however many undocumented sheep-ly situations, along the lines of the probably otherwise harmless replacement, with 11 words and a sig, of whatever was the prior content, with the Talk:Names of China#ConvertIPA: Since done. section. (Said sig is probably authentic, but possibly forged.)

Barbarism

Barbarism 01:55, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Jerzy. You created Barbarism (traditional linguistics) as a redirect to Classical compound. I don't believe that barbarism is or was a synonym for Latin or Greek compounds, though. I could be wrong – even though I've been a professional linguist for more a decade, I had never heard of an internationalism as a kind of word before encountering the label on Wikipedia. Could you point me to published sources that use barbarism in that sense?

Alternately, I wonder if this is the result of a misunderstanding. Some people have described Latin-Greek compounds as "barbarisms", but that is not a name for the compounds. Rather it is a judgement that such usage (e.g. combining a prefix borrowed from one language with a root from another) is "ignorant" and therefore "barbarous".

   I encountered the term years and almost certainly decades ago, mentioned as "barbarism" (not "barbarous"), defined, to the best of my recollection, as a mixing of roots from two languages in coining a word, and illustrated with a Latin/Greek combo and/or a modern-European/classical combo.

|Cnilep}}   A search thru the ed-hx at Internationalism (linguistics) reinforces my sense that i've never edited it, and thereby reinforces my impression of never before having heard a linguistic sense for the term. As to the substance of your note, i claim no expertise. But IMO the distinctions you make above sound more relevant to discussions of article content than of Rdr targets; the former have to reflect correct understandings, while the latter are not information sources and when they reflect misconceptions, the remedy is not to pretend that our readers will never the misunderstandings occur (nor to decree that every foolish notion should condemn its holder to Wiki-hell), but rather to get the reader to some correct information related to the misunderstood matter, with as little fuss as possible.
   (Maybe it could be useful to have a dynamic pilot light on the standard page that -- by its diameter, and shades from greens thru yellows to reds -- reflects for the reader how deep into the woods the user's search seems to be getting, and how rapidly they're getting in or out of them, but it doesn't sound like near-term AI tech to me. IMO, what we have to do is let the reader's common sense clue them in to any difference between Rdrs that are secrets of the universe and those that are just Hail Mary passes.
   Using "Hail Mary pass" for naming that link purports to be one of the secrets, while the Rdr Hail-Mary pass which i just created may itself be nothing but "a Hail-Mary pass", i.e. something that gets a future editor to the article w/o having to experiment to find out which of two reasonable phrases (clearly intended to represent the same concept) got chosen (perhaps just on the basis of the chance of which editor named it) to receive our Wiki-papal blessing (let alone any sounder blessing).)
   Approaching from a different angle, what harm do you really think will come if a reader of finite wisdom fails to get their hand slapped for muddling a distinction that most likely has never occurred to them, bcz they used what the experts consider a mistaken name, and get to an article with the approved name? (Esp'ly, when the article doesn't mention the perhaps mistaken name!)
   I find the distinction you make interesting; i'm not sure whether no such distinction was made by (or whether i misconstrued) whatever i picked up the notion from. But i think if you surveyed our population of Rdrs, or studied the guidelines and the commentaries (talk pages) that led to them, you'd convince yourself it's not a distinction important to our goals.
   BTW, it finally occurs to me there's a reasonably rich vocabulary of templates intended for use solely on Rdr pages. I think they're meant to control the behavior of certain bots, but they're human-readable, and probably (in important cases) discussed on the respective Rdrs' talk pages -- and/or in comments on the Rdr pages themselves. You might be inspired, by inspecting that vocabulary, to rediscover, or invent, some such templates that could help address your underlying concern. (Not one of my priorities, but i think i respect your underlying concern, and the more power to you, if you can find a way address it within our underlying central task.
   Finally, the foregoing may be a red herring, and i need to be sure to say


   In case it's any help to you, this hints at the mental context of my edit, in case you missed any useful clue there.

Bypassing move-caused links 12:07, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

   As to fixing the links, i recall a binge relating to Table, and also (later?) fixing them by the hundreds without urging in connection a project of byp'g lks to the Dab'n of Battery (a BTW ill-considered project, not least due to every portable-electronic-game fan linking to it in their favorite articles). And also reaching a point where fixing the remaining minority of them would have meant sapping my motivation to a point where my overall contribs by now would probably have been only a few percent of what i've in fact logged. I think the tedium of clicking on links is insignificant in alienating readers, and encountering un-bypassed links "the natural way" in reading is not only a great way for users to ease into editing, but also a routine occasion bypass links as part of the process of following those as meet them on pages i'd not otherwise have edited. (In fact, i think i'll explore whether there's an essay on disambiguation and bypassing links as a pastime and as paying it forward.)

   As a matter of context, you may perhaps be aware that Smith is the most common surname in so-called Anglo-Saxon countries (a tribute, conceptually, to the invention of ironsmithing somewhere on "the" subcontinent). While Smyth is a rare surname in many of those countries, it is IMO widely understood as a variant of Smith, and my impression is that it is (as perhaps even Smythe is) more often than not pronounced the same as (or indistinguishabsignificly differently from) "Smith". Probably in the minds of most who bear it, it is a different name, and i assume when people bearing it are asked by record keepers for their "last name", they respond with what sounds like "Smith with a Y" and often get the response that sounds like "Oh, OK, 'smithe'" (as the clerk nevertheless writes down ess, em, wye, tee, aitch" and perhaps pronounces those letters aloud); my guess is that many of the Smyths sigh, and say -- provided the clerk has also said the letters aloud -- "Yeah, whatever." (meaning something like "Why should I care how stupid or rude you are, as long you spell on it right on the check) you send me?)", rather than repeating what they've already said. My intention, tho i may have been mistaken, must have been at least in part, to anticipate the possibility that the Devanagari spelling might be the same (in at least some of the languages of the subcontinent), despite the different Roman-alphabet spellings. Imagining that trying to avoid getting, say, the ..DH.. DVD when hunting down the ..TH.. work, or vice versa, has IMO very high relevance to whether three or only two of the three need to appear on the same Dab, and i think your insight on that will be crucial for me and others who may take an interest in this editing decision.
--Jerzy•t 23:05, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

So perhaps you -- since you find the works that differ in whether DH or TH appears, can clarify how hard or easy it is to for native, or otherwise fluent, speakers of English, who are fans of Indian film and TV, to keep the names and works straight.

Long A ( no longer Rdr to A-macron)

Long A, often represented by the symbol Ā or ā, is a phoneme that appears in the standard pronunciations of many English words.

  2. The converse approach, which would features the new version and hint at the original one being due to be forgotten about.
  3. The obvious even-handed approach, which would have both complete versions, and limit the issue to be decided to whether to put them in chronological order (suiting the thot that we're telling the history of the song its chronological order) or (since we are writing in the post-revision era) present the (currently official) song in the lead section, then present, in a History section, in historical order, the original version, discussion of any agitation for a change, in the context of the national attention to the [choose your poison] familiar/odd/confusing/sexist usage of "man"/"men", anything we now know about the private decision-making process that presumably culminating in announcing and instituting the change, the current discussion of the specific old-phrase/new-phrase changes, the apparently post-replacement announcement of the poll (presumably without seeking approval from the chain of command), the publication of the poll result, and a clear statement of whether there has even been official notice taken of the polling effort and/or its outcome.
  4. i think there is also an available, but less obvious, approach:


== Treatment of poll info ==

  If there's been any survey effort that would distinguish not just between

  • answered "reverse the change" in poll and
  • answered "let the change stand" in poll,

but also distinguish e.g.,

  • "didn't answer poll bcz any answer would be subversive to command discipline",
  • "didn't answer poll bcz doing so would be wasted effort, in light of superiors' knowledge that reversing decision in response to poll would be subversive to command discipline",
  • etc.,

that info would vastly improve the article.
So would information on %-age participation among the corps, among active duty WP grads, and among living retired grads.

   (Inspired by hearing it pointed out that white is Apple's corporate color) i wondered whether Applewhite (which, unless the spelling has been changed, is kind of a non-sequitur-ish name) or Applewight (Applewight) or perhaps Applewright might have begun as a descriptive name like Small (surname), Strong (surname), and Short (surname) or as an occupational name, with Smith, Fisher, Farmer, Barber, (and perhaps Barbour), Cartwright, and i would guess Appleman, being obvious examples.

Wikipedia talk:Sarcasm is really helpful and #I HATED the essay. [~META] But...

   [~META] Sorry, friends and colleagues, if i'm spoiling the party, but i had to start this page by putting down that vigilante pseudo-tag, eliminating any doubt that i needed to turn off the meta in my contribution. I wrote what looks like about 8 words before keying a hopefully sally into wondering whether the term "meta-meta" deserved discussion, when my head literally (tho clearly psychogenically) started hurt; it made it hard to think straight, and i speculate its role in my psychic economy was to get to stop playing with that concept. I've just gone back and modified the title of this section by sticking [~META] into the middle of it

I'd be grateful if you 

(while i continue to delight in the accompanying doggedly meta essay, i just keyed a hopefully sally into wondering whether the term "meta-meta" deserved discussion, or banning, on this talk page, and it -- as did, by the way, reading many of the essay's talk contribs: Apparent sarcasm/irony in (or rather "your discussion", tho i started using "our discussion" in edit summaries and on discussion pages, routinely within a year if not sooner, and by now reflexively)  on it leaves me unable to tell

-- and while it hadn't occurred to me before, i probably literally have a ceiling far below any experienced by typical others, in the number levels of meta i can think (rather than panic!) about. Thus

    --Jerzy•t 02:13, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
=== Backslashes ===
  •    /s/ , described above as "S ... in slash and back slash" should be called "S between slashes": in contrast, back slash (aka backslash) looks like this: \
       (So i'd have described the notation in question as "lower-case S between slashes" or "slash small-s slash"-- or maybe even "open-slash small-s close-slash",
    to describe KS's apparent (and IMO correct) inference and implication that
    the two slashes, tho not adjacent, are intended to be seen as inseparable, walling off the "s" from the normal or neutral or default part of the sentence,
    in analogy with
    "open-quote ess close-quote", where "open" and "close" describe the syntax for the usage
    -- specifically, the fact that either
    the pair of slashes, or
    the pair of "straight double quotation marks",
    can have the space inside them widened without it changing the meaning they jointly convey, but
    neither can be used without its respective "mate" (unless the writer is, say, using one straight double quotation mark as a ditto mark).
       (We should have an article or Dab page for /s/
    -- tho i guess that link, which is a URL, as i type into the edit box, inviting me to edit (y'know, write, and eventually create by saving) Talk:S/s --
    hints at why we don't have, or at least why i can't find it.)
       IMO, however, the far more frequent and more suited to general-purpose use for /s/, is in keyboarding business correspondence, e.g.
    Sincerely,

   User:Univer, following these 2nd and 3rd sentences (I object to "accepted to be located in", and to the word "remains" in that context, but sufficient unto the day):
The official boundaries of the regions and the provinces do not overlap. Provinces, by custom, are accepted to be located in the regions where most of their territory remains.
this wording, as 4th and 5th (and final) sentences of the lead 'graph and section, added:
Regions as defined in this context is merely for statistical purposes and do not refer to an administrative division. Each region is listed below, with corresponding provinces within the region.
(Currently the lead secn's final graph ends thus:
"Regions" as defined in this context are merely for geographic, demographic, and economic purposes, and do not refer to an administrative division.
(Ah! And my research shows that it was i who removed their wording
As such, borders of geographical regions do not overlap with the borders of the administrative provinces.

LO'd is bio w/ dubl Hnote Dab, one leg of which lks to LP. LP includes a list of apparently all the Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore joint pseudonymous works, and provides links to the bio of each spouse. So, for now, i made sure the relevant ones link to LP, and complained on talk abt chosing that page as the collab'n's art.

Consider conv'n of LO'D fr Hnote to linking a Primary Dab page ... linking to, or incorporating functionality of, (notional?) article where works are listed in a section for corr'g ps'nym , or a section for works where they openly used their own name(s).

OK, how about primary Dab instead of Hat note; unlabelled secn 0 is the general and the writing team; secn 2 is programs he's hosted hmm, last word is only one, but that does make 3 meanings

Then bio primary; general, pseudonym, and Last Word all subsidiary in a simple list on the unsectioned, (1+) 3 -entry Dab page.

The Lo'D Dab page would then link to the HK/CLM page, IMO preferably w/ LP becoming a Rdr to Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore joint pseudonymous works, or Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore's joint pseudonymous works, or Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore's joint works.

OK, does The Last Word or The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell have its own article, as i think it should? Yes, already there.

Event Horizon? 21:49, 13 August 2016

{{anchor|Event horizon}}

   Ideally, the question is tackled head-on when the second meaning of the term gets an article, and either the un-Dab'd title (as article name: the "yes"-answer approach) or the equal-Dab'n Dab-page lead (is as its first verb: the "no"-answer approach). When that opportunity has been precluded -- as here, where the two incompatible approaches have been, uh, combined -- the question is whether to just ignore one colleague's opinion, to follow the official default, or to assert that it's a case where the policy-blind process is worked: there's nothing odd about assuming the (near-)century-old black-hole coinage remains the primary topic. (This could be called passing the buck... except that i'm going to "fix" the Dab page instead of leaving the putative primary topic and the Dab page format inconsistent.) The millstones of WP may grind slow, but they ultimately will grind exceeding fine.

The article is abt words & sections serving to guide and/or take a figurative leading (first in position and/or emphasis a/o extent of reach) role in (regardless of their color!), and not about

The adjective "stacky" is used at e.g. Toric stack; can it be defined here please? Equinox (talk) 13:56, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
I don't think it has any technically specific meaning; but it usually means "related to stacks". For another example, see Behrend's trace formula, which talks about the "stacky way" of counting objects (namely don't ignore automorphisms). -- Taku (talk) 20:47, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
   Should not be used unless we're willing to create an article on stackiness, and it remains to be shown that its use in this article is even as effective as the common sense image of that is obviously its etymological explanation: ::How is a stack different from a heap? Well, in a heap you have no idea which item was put in last (or last except for others that have already been removed since the last time they were put in).: We can have an article on stacks, written from the point of view of a math-majors-only data-structures course, but the vast majority of user accesses of the article stack (mathematics) are responded to with malpractice of encyclopedia-creation.

I don't blame anyone in a marginalized group who resents that, and we probably need more editors from marginalized groups who are willing to clean up after, and hunt down, bigots. I'm kinda a |goofy-fuck
