I'm not accustomed to using the "User Talk" pages, so pardon my ignorance. You made a comment on my User Talk page under the headline "Pentimal". Now, I've answered you there. But, your User Talk page is here, so how can you know if I don't tell you? Anyway, maybe it doesn't matter. I think the issue may be solved now, in a non-controversial manner. I still would like to thank you for reminding me.

Assyrian cuneiform

edit

Impressive work, your collection!* Do you need any help with it? I could e.g. include them in theList of cuneiform signs. —Sebastian06:42, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

I was planning to first, do post-upload cross-checking and minor error-corrections, then sort them by according to Unicode order, then decide which is the basic or most typical sign (in cases where multiple Assyrian Cuneiform glyphs correspond to a single Unicode code point). However, I only ever got 30% of the way through post-upload cross-checking and minor error-corrections. I could give you a table of the SVGs in Unicode order, but it would be missing some of the cross-checking, and there would be multiple SVGs for some Unicode code points...AnonMoos (talk)14:45, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
I'm surprised you base the sorting on Unicode. I had assumed you'd prefer MesZL, as you did in your collection. So I anticipated only the problem of one MesZL having several Unicode representations. What I had in mind for including them in the List of cuneiform signs was just
  1. adding a column to those tables (or reusing the empty column) for your images
  2. picking the first image and just adding an image tag in the new column with the filename. I'd do that in a semi-automated way.
That doesn't preclude any in-image error corrections, since the image tag would automatically display the latest version of the image. However, any error corrections that involve changes in file name, such as may arise from cross-checking, would of course have to be duplicated in the List. If that could become a bigger issue, I could do step 2 in a way that can be easily reproduced.
A table of the SVGs would be helpful if it also contained the MesZL codes; otherwise I can create it from your collection.
Now that I look at your collection more closely, I realize that I don't understand it. Why do you combine MesZL 3 and MesZL 2 in one image,File:Assyrian cuneiform U1212C MesZL 3 or U12400 MesZL 2.svg? On my browser, U+12400 looks very different from U+1212C¬. —Sebastian02:19, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Kircher

edit

Thank you also for your book recommendation on Kircher. Would you attribute the decline of his reputation to the change of the cultural climate from mysticism (indulging in misconceptions) to rationalism (combatting them) then, or do you see a timeless lesson for us as human beings? —Sebastian06:42, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

I don't have any profound knowledge of Athanasius Kircher. I've just seen various of his diagrams and maps for many years, and know that he was attempting a kind of grand synthesis of traditional systems and schemas at a time when many of them would soon be pushed aside by the rise of modern science. (A little similar to Casaubon in Middlemarch, maybe.)AnonMoos (talk)14:45, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
Oh, don't worry! You read the book, that's profound enough for me. What was the lesson you learned from it? But maybe I should read Middlemarch first; I haven't read anything by G.E. yet. —Sebastian01:51, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

New Page Patrol?

edit

Hi AnonMoos,

I've recently been looking for editors to invite to join New Page Patrol, and from your editing history, I think you would be a good candidate. Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; we could use some additional help from an experienced user like yourself. It would also be good to have a reviewer with your experience in theology for when related topics come up.

Would you please consider becoming aNew Page Reviewer? (After gaining the flag, patrolling is not mandatory. One can do it at their convenience). But kindly readthe tutorial before making your decision. If you choose to apply, you can drop an application over atWP:PERM/NPR.

Cheers, and hope to see you around, --Insertcleverphrasehere(or here)12:58, 16 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Ugaritic

edit

Hi, I see you're knowledgable in semitic languages. I'm working on a draft article forHittite phonology. While researching on the pronunciation of its fricative consonants, Ugaritic loan words from Hittite show up as evidence. These consistently transcribe Hittite "s" as Ugaritic "t_", which is very strange because "s" is likely an alveolar or a post alveolar fricative, while this suggests a interdental place of articulation instead. However, I've seen you mention a merger in some semitic branch that would make a lot of sense if it applied to this language as well.

Also, Ugaritic seems to represent Hittite "h-(", which is likely an uvular or pharyngeal fricative, with the letters for "g" and "h-.",. It is odd that for "h-(" to have two different places of articulation, but you mention a merger here as well. Could you fill me in with the details on how should all this be interpreted? --Tom 144 (talk)21:36, 21 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

I guess what I'm trying to ask is whether Ugaritic "t_" was pronounced as [Error using {{IPA symbol}}: "th" not found in list] or [Error using {{IPA symbol}}: "S" not found in list]. And whether "g" was a pharyngeal or a velar. --Tom 144 (talk)19:30, 23 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

I'm taking a shot in the dark and wondering if you might be able to point me to any sources about Elsie Chomsky and her work and career.

Classical language

edit

I want to explain why I removed the long quote from Edward Sapir from theClassical language article. Because the quote is very long relative to the prose in the article, Google is picking this quote out of the article asthe definition of Classical language. (This is how I arrived at the article). Unfortunately, when Google does this it is not clear that this is a quote or the opinion of one scholar (from 1921). There exist, of course, other sources that disagree with his classification. For this reason, I don't think we can allow this, I hope this is ok for you. Thank you, Zephrine.-- Precedingunsigned comment added byZephrine (talk ocontribs)01:50, 5 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

For example where the quote says, "In comparison with these, even such culturally important languages as Hebrew and French sink into a secondary position". Like you, I thought this was very interesting, but many sources contradict. Problem is Google pulled it from us as the objective definition of "classical language".

Borromean rings

edit

I understand all the issues in the first paragraph of the entryBorromean rings. It is quite flawed and I made an attempt to fix the most egregious flaw, but you undid it. The third sentence is fine, but the first two are not.

1) unconnected is wrong - the correct term is unlinked

2) "In other words" is wrong, because the second sentence is not a rephasing of the first.

3) Although I see your point, that if you delete a component then one has a two crossing link - and there are only 2 two crossing links, the unlink and the Hopf link. But this point is not made clearly in the second sentence. I personally don't think this is important enough to put in the second sentence.

As a professional mathematician, this is a discouraging experience - to try and help Wikipedia and then have it undone. Feel free to try and understand the points I made and to make the corrections.-- Precedingunsigned comment added byJfdavis (talk ocontribs)00:38, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

You don't have a basic grasp of the issues involved or a basic grasp of the correct terminology; the first two sentences of the entry are sufficiently amateurish that they are practically gibberish. I corrected the second sentence, and then you undid my correction. I am an expert in these matters and you are not. If you put back in my correction, then I could work further on the wording; if not, I have better things to do.-- Precedingunsigned comment added byJfdavis (talk ocontribs)21:09, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Forgive me, but...

edit

It's come to the point that I'm no longer moved to reply to your comments on P-stranding. Why? All of your comments are either ad hominem (and therefore irrelevant) or evincing naïve linguistic theory. By "naïve linguistic theory," I mean one that focuses on the issues that relate to one specific area of interest while neglecting how it impinges adjacent areas. If you're scratching your head at me, here's a smidgen of background...

As part of an elementary school homework assignment, I'd included the sentence, "I hurried after them who left." My English composition instructor corrected it to, "I hurried afterthey who left." Her explanation: "I hurried after them" is correct by itself wherein "after" is a preposition and "them" is a prepositional object. However, my sentence continued so that "they who left" is, in its entirety, a nominal clause as the object of "after." So, properly construed, it's not, "I hurriedafter they who left," it's "I hurried afterthey who left wherein "hurry after" is a transitive phrasal verb.

I then complained (a) "hurry after" isn't a phrasal verb, and (b) even if it were so construed, I'd correctly hurryafter "them" who left, notafter "they" who left. To which my instructor replied, "Look upzeugma and syllepsis for yourself and see how it applies to "afterthey who left", otherwise you'll be stuck analyzing "hurried after them" and "they who left" under separate and distinct naïve linguistic theories that can't be reconciled individually in the manner synthesized in a sentence like "I hurried after they who left" wherein "they" is both thesubject of "they ... left" and part of theobject, "they who left."

And now you, AnonMoos, repeatedly refuse or otherwise fail to consider how a zeugma or syllepsis is at work regarding a sentence like, "That's the house I ran into." Did Irun into the house (i.e., encounter it by chance? or crash into it headlong?) or did I runinto a house (i.e., go inside while ambulating at a pace faster than a walk)? A naïve linguistic theory (read,traditional linguistics) insists that it's one or the other. A modern linguistic approach acknowledges how, despite the identical word order, the semantic interpretation depends on disparate syntaxes: The meaning and syntax are by no means fixed.

Another example of zeugma or syllepsis: In the P-stranding talk page thread, I wrote "My posts thereafter contained references topostpositional particle." I take back everything from the preceding paragraph if you can spot the zeugma in that quote. Give up? Answer: it's the word, "thereafter." Specifically, there's no dictionary anywhere that defines "thereafter" as anything but anadverb. You can rightfully accuse me of originality when I say there's no compelling reason, except convention, not to construe "thereafter" as an adjective in certain instances. Specifically, major dictionaries definethereafter as "after that" (Webster) or "after that time" (Oxford). Webster has no corresponding examples, but Oxford has 20 examples. None of the examples account for an instance like, "The first car, and two of the three vehicles thereafter, were damaged." Thus, the Oxford definition is too narrow for this adjectival construction, and Webster is silent on the matter.

Back to my example: Is it an adjectival "Myposts thereafter contained references topostpositional particle? Or, is it "My poststhereafter contained references topostpositional particle"? Make no mistake: I know of no grammarian who'd identifythereafter as an adjective; I know of no lexicographer who'd define it as an adjective; I know of no linguist who'd parse it as an adjective - particularly because linguists tend, by and large, stuck in their own provincial spheres of naïve linguistic theory. I, on the other hand, am not. Neither isUser:Doric Loon. But there you dwell. Unless and until you prove me otherwise, you're on my "Do not call" list.

Sorry to ghost you, but perhaps you should think of it as a favor. Meanwhile, consider how, "Who did you run into?" is a perfectly cromulent example of colloquial English. "Whom did you run into?" satisfies a narrow swath of grammatical weenies, and "Into whom did you run?" sounds like a schoolmarm from the 19th century or earlier. In any event, unless you're a very tiny person who ran and entered an epically large human being, I don't think "into" can properly be parsed as a preposition in this day and age under the "Who did yourun into?" iteration.

Now, please excuse me while I'm off to always understand the conclusions of mainstream linguistics better than I seem to think I do. There are loads of corresponding items into and up which I must look and out about which I must find. --Kent Dominic·(talk)20:47, 18 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related totheArab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated ascontentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics anddoesnot imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to ascontentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should editcarefully andconstructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topicsprocedures you may ask them at thearbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topichere. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the{{Ctopics/aware}} template.

In addition to that introduction, I'd like to note that your commenthere is needlessly aggressive and a bright-line breach ofWP:CIVIL. Please be courteous to other editors,regardless of their tenure. As you don't seem to have been aware of the CTOP restrictions in this area before, this warning is not an AE action and will not be logged. (For what it's worth, the user you addressed is not currently able to participate in that topic area, as their extended-confirmed status has been revoked.)

Re: Getting a new computer

edit

Hi, just curious what's stopping you from getting a new machine, virtual or otherwise, just for Wikipedia use. You can even run one on a USB stick or an SSD enclosure, a nifty device I bought on a whim but rarely use.Viriditas (talk)23:10, 27 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Reading further, the problem is your internet connectionand your older machine, correct? That's an interesting conundrum, because if you updated your connection, it might not work with your machine, and if you updated your machine, it might still have the same problems with your connection. I think you should update both, and to be honest, the kind of data migration you are dealing with is fairly easy and routine these days, so you have nothing to worry about. The bottom line is that both your machine and connection need to be refreshed; this is not your fault, these things happen, and it's best to just get it over with and move on. And to be honest, you are missing out on how fast and reliable the new tech is compared to 2012. To my mind, that is literally the dark ages. The quiet nature of an SSD environment is the first thing you notice, followed by the massive amounts of RAM; the blinding fast speed of both newer USB and crazy fast WiFi makes it well worth your time. And if you don't have that much money to spend, you can still get a Mini PC for ~US$140 with all the bells and whistles, or update your system with a basic Raspberry Pi desktop machine for half the cost of the Mini PC. Some people will just go the faux-laptop route by getting a tablet with a keyboard case. You can sometimes get these things at greatly reduced costs, either because they are second hand and refurbished or because the telecom provider in your area has deals and discounts when you open a new wireless account. In my area, they were giving $650 gift cards to new account signups, and you could use that to purchase a new tablet. There's also newer credit plans that are widely available now in the online shopping environment, that allow you to space out your payments over time without any interest charges. As for the eventual data migration, it's a no brainer these days. You basically have two options: upload everything to the cloud and then down to your new machine. Or, just copy or clone everything from the old machine to the new one. To do that right you sometimes need a legacy interface to connect the two machines. Unitek makes a super cool and cheap device to do just that. It's called a "IDE & SATA Hard Drive Adapter". It's a total lifesaver when you're dealing with old machines whose data you want to preserve elsewhere. It allows you to directly connect your old hard drives with USB to the new machines or external storage. Problem solved.Viriditas (talk)00:00, 28 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Syria Coat of Arms

Hello! It appears the new Syrian transitional government is using the coat of arms with the hawk facing its right as opposed to the left, also it has the black lines along the wings (not just golden contrast), based on the latest documentation published on the official government-run Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA).[8][9][10][11] You once made asimilar image, albeit if you can tweak it a little bit to include white font letters on the bottom, and the wheat branches should be golden instead of green.
