EL DORADO
editHEY THERE Argyriou; TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I DONT REALLY KNOW THE ECONOMICS OF EL DORADO, BUT I'M UNDERSTOOD, THAT RENOVATION IS TAKING PLACE, WHICH FORCE AIRLINES TO PAY MORE TAXES. THE REASON IS, THAT EL DORADO INTERNATIONAL IS PLANNING TO HAVE A BEUTIFUL AIRPORT, THAT WILL SERVE PASSANGERS THAT VISIT COLOMBIA BETTER, WHICH HELPS WITH THE ECONOMICS OF COLOMBIA, AVIANCA IS ALSO PLANNING TO MOVE ITS HUB FROM "EL DORADO" TO A DIFFERENT AIRPORT IN COLOMBIA, DUE TO THE HIGH TAXES.
YOU COULD FIND MORE INFO ON WWW.AIRLINNERS.NET, JUST GO TO THE FORUM AND TYPE AVIANCA, EL DORADO, ETC, YOU COULD FIND MORE INFO THERE, THEY GIVE YOU LINKS TO COLOMBIAN ECONOMICS REGARDING AVIANCA, AND THE AIRPORT FACTS..
I hope this will help! ColBog
I reverted your edits. I had never heard of the nicknames either, but there was a long discussion on the talk page about nicknames a few months back. These are the one we settled on.
personally, i want "biggity biggity o" up there.

Irish and Scottish céilídh
editIt does get a bit confusing at times as Scottish Gaelic is decended from Old Irish Gaelic, usually called just Old Irish, having broken away about 1000 A.D. There are reformed spellings etc since the 1950's onwards, but I don't know how they apply in this instance. Here are the origns of the word, hope it helps clarify things.

editYou did well to spot and excise the 'True Heirs' nonsense on the House of Stuart page. It's more than silly, though: I believe this addition to be a malicious hoax. Regards, Rcpaterson 07:14, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Thnaks for your advice; it's appreciated. For the example I had in mind graded warnings would simply not be appropriate. Have a look at the recent amendments to Cromwell and you will see what I mean. This is either a child, or a moron, or both. Rcpaterson 04:00, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Global Tick
editHi,
Could you explain where you discovered the term "Global Tick" in reference to astronomy and cosmology? Most of the ghits I seem to be finding are related to clock events in a computer, or else the insect in relation to global problems. It might help if I could refine the search parameters. Thanks. — RJH (talk) 21:37, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- Someone else added "Global tick" to the geology section of the requested articles; I guessed that it might be astronomical, based purely on intuitive evidence. Maybe it really is a computer thing, instead. Or a spherical arthropod.

Your Picture of the Pink Plastic Flamingos
editHello Argyriou,
If you read the: "Authenticity" Authentic flamingos always have Don Featherstone’s signature under their tails. Each has a yellow beak with a black tip and they are only sold in pairs", The picture you have shown are cheap imitation’s that look more like snakes with tail feathers. I beg you to get a picture of a group of real Don Featherstone pink flamingos, as he is now 70 years old, and my dad. The original Pink Plastic Lawn Flamingo will turn 50 this coming year, and it would be a real tribute to my father to have a real picture of his art next to it’s description. If you would like help with this, I would be more than happy to do anything I can to help make this happen.
Thank you,
Harold Featherstone

Greek ancestry I see
editYour name is very familiar. Too familiar I would say. Check my nick in a Greek-English lexicon and you'll understand... :-) NikoSilver 22:29, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- I do understand. It is my real family name, though I found out about the meaning from an economics book, of all things. Argyriou (talk) 01:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- Hah! Economics! Makes the world go round, doesn't it. Yours is in genitive case, probably meaning "son of Argyris". "Árgyros" means silver, "Argýris" is a normal Orthodox name, just as Niko or John, meaning "silvery". So you're the son of the silvery guy! Interestingly, one of the first historic mentionings of the name, is that of Romanos III Argyros, first husband of Empress Zoe, daughter of Constantine VIII (who forcefully divorced him from his first marriage and forced them to mary), who was the surviving brother of Basil II the Bulgar-Slayer of the Byzantine Empire in the 11th-12th century. The guy was poisoned by Zoe, who was in love with someone else. His family is said to have fled from Constantinople after the event, migrating to Chios, Santorini and Corfu. Any idea about a great-grandpa from there? My dad is from Paxi, a little island 10 miles south of Corfu. Hah! Last time I bleeded it was red, though. No blue traces at all...

- Hah! Speaking about Dhidhymoteicho and about blue, check Dhidhymóteicho Blues (it was a Greek-pop hit about a drafted man's solitude there -now a classic)*. Do you wish the circumstances allowed your father to teach you Greek? Your mother is obviously non-Greek, right? Sorry for asking personal questions.

Westbound 580 35th Avenue
editAccording to CAL-NExUS 35th Avenue does not have an exit on westbound 580. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.236.71.17 (talk) 20:37, 22 December 2006 (UTC).
- You will notice that I wrote "Eastbound exit and westbound entrance". There is an entrance to 580WB from 35th Avenue, even though there is no exit from 580 WB to 35th Avenue. As there are irregular situations where sometimes an eastbound exit is not matched by a westbound entrance, it is worthwhile to note the presence or absence of entrances as well as exits, even though the list is called "Exit list". Argyriou (talk) 21:12, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Interstate Highways/Exit list guide#Examples. Both entrances and exits are shown, especially in the case where the entrance and exit are to only one direction of the freeway. Argyriou (talk) 21:30, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
San Francisco as a control city on 580 west
editIf you drove on 580 east in Richmond,pass the Central Avenue exit,ahead you would see the Buchanan Street exit sign on the left,while the right sign says I-80 and I-580 Oakland/San Francisco.Also,at the MacArthur Maze on 580,if take westbound I-580 and east I-80,you would see the sign using Berkeley/Sacramento as control cities. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.236.71.17 (talk) 21:10, 22 December 2006 (UTC).
- San Francisco is a control city for I-80, Oakland for I-580. Argyriou (talk) 21:11, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Berkeley as control city for 580 west
editIf Sacramento is a control city for 80 east,therefore Berkeley will be a control city for 580 west at the MacArthur Maze. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.236.71.17 (talk) 21:20, 22 December 2006 (UTC).
- I'm not going to argue the status of control cities, though I think that you're right that Berkeley is a control city for 580W. I suppose it depends on the exact definition of control cities. Argyriou (talk) 21:28, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Message on diocese
editHi there,
Just some background; I have been fixing the diocese in Ireland because they're a bit of a mess. There are links back and forth between Anglican (Church of Ireland) and Catholic dioceses in various articles--it causes confusions. I am well on the way to sorting that out.
Now, with regard to adding a country tag to the name, I can see a reason why that would not be needed. In Catholicism at least, the Vatican won't erect a new diocese with an existing name. Where I have seen ambiguity is where the reformation resulted in co-territorial dioceses with identical names. I see the issue as falling along denominational and not geograhic lines. I have started to added the denomination to all clergy and related items--though I only started Wikipediaing three days ago, so I just figured out how to do it. I have to go back and redo some of the pages I wrote up recently.
Thanks for the feedback.
Socal90046 07:22, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- You're welcome. You're right that in ordinariy usage, the country of the diocese need not be listed; however, it is a convenience to people who see a diocese name without knowing which country it is in (and the English-speaking and Spanish-speaking countries have this problem in a huge way), and it's also convenient if it's ever desired to re-organize the list on a per-country basis. I'm willing to do the grunt-work of finding the country for those where it's not listed, but it makes life easier if people adding new dioceses to the listings include the country. Somewhere down the road, that's going to cause a mess when the Northern Irish nationalists discover that the Church considers Belfast to be Ireland. Until then, I'd like to see countries listed. Argyriou (talk) 16:33, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Kelly Ellard
editRegarding the article, I guess, it could be merged with the Reena Virk article. I understand it didn't make much news in the United States, but it was big news in Canada. I live in Canada and the same province where this murder was high-profiled. I don't know what more can be added to the article, because a lot is not known about Kelly Ellard's personal life. The most we know about her is that she had a lot of behavior problems in school. She's got one older brother and her family stands by their belief she is innocent. Fighting for Justice 06:49, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that the murder-of-the-week rates a Wikipedia article, even if it did make a big news splash. Terrance Kelly made a big splash in the Bay Area when he was killed recently, but ultimately, it's just another murder. Michael Dellums rates an article only because he's the son of a Congressman and because someone wanted to score political points in the article about his father. (If it gets prod'ed, I doubt anyone would care anymore.) If, on the other hand, the Government (provincial or national) passed some special law or spent lots of money as a result of the murder, then at the very least the case would deserve one article.

Bronze Star
editWhile the Bronze Star is a high level decoration, many OIF and OEF Marines and soldiers were presented the decorations, even posthumously. While I do not know the circumstances on how Pvt. Johnson II got the Bronze Star, he is not the only one who got Bronze Star. A Marine in my father's 2004 Afghanistan unit was killed in combat and was presented with a Bronze Star. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 01:14, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- That was sort of what I was getting at when I said that Bronze Star may meet notability. In some campaigns and wars, certain medals get passed out to lots of people, while they're rare in other wars. Too many people get Purple Hearts for that to define notability, but so few people get Medals of Honor that pretty much any recipient should have a Wikipedia article. Bronze Star has probably fluctuated near both extremes, and I don't follow that, so I don't know what it means in the Iraq campaign. Αργυριου (talk) 01:48, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
AMbrowser / Crazy Browser.Proposed deletion of information entry.
editI just feel it works decent enough, compares favorably as a means to access imformation e g on wikipedia.That's all. The choice of browser does effect reading experience, access-behavior, and possibly "end information productivity" for the individual accessing such an information source/service. The effectiveness or quality reflects back upon the work you do in managing and presenting Wikipedia resources.
In a functioning "library" and encyclopedia-type setting , one could argue for allowing even a few less notable browsers appear listed; if some "less notable" ones do it better than some of the othere, let them stay on. Let there be fair information, (If all the other browsers already worked just as good then there would of course be less need for such information.)
Thanks - and let me not intrude further, —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.217.6.171 (talk • contribs) 20:56, 13 February 2007
- The AM Browser may be a notable enough browser for inclusion into Wikipedia, but the AM Browser article gives no evidence of that. One of the core principles of Wikipedia is that articles are based on reliable sources, and the article presents none. If there are articles in the trade press which discuss AM Browser (and are not just rehashes of press releases), they need to be referenced in the article, and quickly. If nobody in the industry press has bothered to do a review of AM Browser, that is pretty clear evidence that it is not anything notable. Αργυριου (talk) 14:56, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Munsell color system
editHi there Αργυριου. I've been doing my best to fix up the Munsell color system article, but it still has quite a ways to go. I'm wondering if you have any thoughts on the progress so far. Feel free to respond at talk:Munsell color system if you like. Also, MWAK wants to include criticism of the Munsell system’s three-dimensional perceptual uniformity. I'm going to try to work that in as the History/Influences section is filled out (and perhaps split into 2-3 sections). He also has some criticisms about color names. Maybe you can figure out what he's getting at there—it's a mystery to me. Cheers, jacobolus (t) 08:00, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
- The changes you've made seem pretty good. I don't really know enough about the subject to contribute much to the article, though I've used the Munsell soil color charts in my job. MWAK needs to be able to phrase the criticism of the Munsell system in a way which is understandable to the lay reader, and provide references which actually support his claims. I have read elsewhere that preceptual differences are not uniform across the color solid, though reducing those non-uniformities was what drove the two major recalibrations of the Munsell system. I think it would be perfectly fair to include a criticism along those lines, with a reference to a work which shows those perceptual non-uniformities.
- One other possible critique is that four of the five primaries ought to correspond to the colors of peak sensitivity in the eye's cone cells. Munsell blue does not fit that criterion, but I'm not sure that's a valid critique, because the brain may adjust the perception so that the equal perceptual differences do not match the eye's "primary" colors plus purple. For that matter, having 5 primary colors doesn't match the physiological structure of color response, because the eyes have 4 sensitivity peaks, not 5. That's not what Munsell was trying to match.

- Actually, they do. They clutter up a broad survey article about four different kinds of dancing with trivial details about one particular kind, when the article doesn't go into nearly the detail about the other three. Fixing those details in the Irish stepdance article is definitely worthwhile; as that article is just about stepdance, going into detail there is much more worthwhile.
- Oh, and I don't really care how much stepdancing you've done, I just wanted to establish that I also have been (recently) a competitive dancer instead of some outsider who's just copying stuff on other people's websites. Αργυριου (talk) 18:18, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

- After a number of experiences, I no longer assume good faith on the part of administrators or admin candidates. If it were practical to remove bad admins, I'd be much less hesitant about promoting people who I have any hesitation about. But since it's essentially impossible to remove an admin, no matter how abusive they become, I'm generally inclined to oppose anyone I'm not solidly trusting of.
