Hi |

I see that you have reverted the position of the wikiquote link on the Osho page. Do you have any way of restoring the appearnace of the link symbols at the end of the first and third external links as they are not showing properly? ] 12:48, 6 March 2007 (UTC) |

:Hi, The disappearing symbols are a glitch in Misplaced Pages; it happens in other places in the text as well. I can get the symbols to display correctly by changing the text size in IE or Firefox. As for the position of the Wikiquote box, I randomly checked some other articles that have links to sister projects -- Rabindranath Tagore (a Featured Article in WP), Karl Marx, Gandhi, J. Krishnamurti -- and they all have the box positioned at the top of the relevant section ... so I thought, well, let's go with that, since it seems to be the standard style.

Hey, just wondering: isn't there a template for a teacher or a spiritual teacher - is the "artist" the closest we can get? I am guessing you already searched for templates and the "artist" seems the most suitable for Osho and Gurdjieff. If you want me to help you look for another say so. ] 00:53, 18 June 2007 (UTC) |

:Hi Aeuio, I took that info box from the featured article ] (where it's subsequently been replaced, though). I think it fits quite well, because it allows for specification of "movement" and "key works". What do you think? |
|
|
|
|
|
:I couldn't find any template specifically designed for spiritual teachers. Looked at the philosophy templates, and they didn't seem right. Have used the artist one in ] as well now. If you should find something better, do let me know. Cheers, ] 11:44, 18 June 2007 (UTC) |

== Scleromochlus / Ornithodira == |
|
|
|
|
|
Current phylogenetic analyses places '']'' as the basal most-member of Ornithodira, and not within Pterosauropmorpha. Even if ''Scleromochlus'' was within Pterosauropmorpha it does not necessitate that it was in fact an 'ancestor' to the pterosaurs. All it would tell us is that both the pterosaurs and ''Scleromochlus'' shared a more recent common ancestor than that with the dinosaurs. Sister group relationships does not mean one taxon is ancestral to none-another. Take the example of humans and chimps+bonoboos. We are their sister taxon, but we're not ancestral to either, and neither of them are ancestral to us. |
|
|
This is a common misunderstanding of cladistic methodology and theory. There is no current ''Scleromochlus''-pterosaur explicit ancestor theory (as no-one would/or should ever try and postulate direct ancestry as it is untestable)that I'm aware of. Simply that some analyses that placed it within the pterosauromorphs, whilst others places it as basal to both pterosauromorphs+dinosauromorphs. It is worth noting that ''Scleromochlus'' appears earlier in the fossil record than pterosauromorphs, so it cannot be the direct ancestor to pterosaurs in any case. Hope this helps. ] 18:08, 20 October 2007 (UTC) |

In your , you deleted the reference to the 1988 Motorola pamphlet, "The Nature of six sigma quality". Did you know that this pamphlet is regarded as the publication that introduced the "rest of the world" to Six Sigma? It probably should have been kept in. |

:Hi Daniel, I would suggest that we start a Literature section for the article, and include Harry's book in it. The article is generally short on ] right now; many key statements are not verifiable for the reader. I am busy at the moment but will try to do some work on that. The section on the 1.5 sigma shift that I deleted (and which included the picture) was unreferenced and seemed like a Wikipedian's ] ] of Harry's approach, rather than something verifiably based on available literature. The article needs a lot of work, based on academic sources -- I believe it is one of the articles most frequently accessed in WP, and at present woefully short of encyclopedic standards. Anyway, that is my view; what do you think? Best wishes <font color="#0000FF">]</font>''<font color=" #FFBF00">]</font>'' 21:41, 9 March 2008 (UTC) |

::I'm not sure you understand the issue: |

|
|
::*The reference you deleted was a citation used to properly cite the source of that statement, consistent with ]. Separating the citation from the statement (e.g., in a "Literature section") makes it '''more difficult''' to ], '''not''' easier. |

::*Per ], "any people learn better, and many technical concepts are communicated better, through visual depictions". De-linking the image does not help these people. |

:::Guilty as charged, what I inserted lacked references. However, there are published references available for what I inserted, and I am not so sure that is the case for everything else we had. The old , for example, had things back to front, stating that the 1.5 sigma is ''added'' to an existing 4.5 sigma, as though the 1.5 sigma shift assumed processes were going to be more capable over the long term, when it is in fact a ''subtraction'' from the 6 sigma capability that practitioners want to observe over the short term, made so as not to make an unrealistic overestimate of long-term capability. So to that extent I am absolutely confident that I have improved the section concerned, making it easier to understand what this 6 sigma thing is about, and why the given 3.4 ppm correspond to a 4.5 sigma quantile, rather than 6 sigma. I have now inserted the Harry as a ref for the discussion of the 1.5 sigma shift where it is first mentioned. <font color="#0000FF">]</font>''<font color=" #FFBF00">]</font>'' 22:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC) |

Sorry, Jayen, this is not a self-revert - the last version of the intro before yours was Lawrence Cohen's (see left side of the diff I gave). Self-revert means you revert to the version before your own (regarding the part of the page you had been editing). Self-revert is a wrong term here, you're simply supporting the version without the intellectual content criticism in the lead section. No problem with that, but it is not correct to indicate it as a "self-revert" in the edit summary then. --] (]) 20:10, 14 March 2008 (UTC) |
