oh, i see.quote:First a word of [yiff] began to use the English-language worshippers of [furri] in the online role games MUCK (in particular, FurryMUCK). Word arose as imitation to the sounds, published by foxes in the period of marriage games. In its English writing (yiff) the word is similar to the onomatopoeic Scottish verb of yaff, which indicates to bark, to [povizgivat].

Using PNG violates WP:NOR: In 2007, some people were actually converting hundreds of JPEG or GIF files into the cumbersome, gargantuan PNG format, totally unaware that Wiki-software optimized resizing of GIF files (3x faster) or JPEG files (as 8x to 21x faster) than the massive data transfer of PNG files. Because articles about "PNG" clearly explain PNG format is often 10x heavier for minimal extra sharpness, the activity of converting to PNG files goes counter to existing research, and converting to PNG files violates the Wiki "No-Original-Research" policy.

Name of Base 26 According to what makes sense to me, the most logical term for base 26 is sexvigesimal, a term combining sex-, the Latin numerical prefix for 6, with vigesimal. However, someone created an article for base 26 called hexavigesimal, which mixes a Greek numerical prefix with a Latin root. Any opinions?? 66.245.3.166 02:29, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC) The reason I used the term hexavigesimal is that it seemed to follow logically from the term hexadecimal and hexavigesimal returned a result from Google, while sexvigesimal did not. 26 - square/cube Do we have a proof that 26 is the only number between a square and a cube? i believe there is a proof due to euler but can;t find it. I found some proof here: http://abstractnonsense.wordpress.com/2006/08/28/algebraic-number-theory/195.113.21.210 (talk) 18:56, 31 March 2009 (UTC) A more rigorous proof is here: http://blog.cr0.org/2009/04/26.html --Roentgenium111 (talk) 11:51, 16 April 2010 (UTC) Boo-yah Does anyone know why on this game show I'm watching, people shout "BOO-YAH!" when #26 is selected. Is this a pop culture thing that should perhaps be included? I removed the links to Wikiproject Kabbalah... ...and Wikiproject Judaism because the article contains a single line of trivia about the relevance of 26 to Judaism. I hope this won't bother anyone.

Starbucks' melusine I have corrected the former confusing text about the "siren" in the Starbucks logo, which elicited a query at my Talkpage. It now reads as follows: Though technically the heraldic charge employed as Starbucks' logo is a melusine displayed, crowned or, in 2006, Valerie O'Neil, a Starbucks spokeswoman, said that the logo is an image of a "twin-tailed siren",[1] the sirens of Greek mythology having developed aquatic characteristics during the Middle Ages, and cognates of siren have come to denote mermaids in several European languages. The image was more correctly identified as a melusine by Ann Rippin the following year.[2] Notes 1. ^ "The Insider: Principal roasts Starbucks over steamy retro logo". Seattle Post-Intelligencer. September 11, 2006. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/284533_theinsider11.html. Retrieved May 23, 2007. 2. ^ Rippin, Ann (2007). "Space, place and the colonies: re-reading the Starbucks' story". Critical perspectives on international business (Emerald Group Publishing) 3 (2): 136-149. ISSN 1742-2043. http://www.emeraldinsight.com/Insight/ViewContentServlet?Filename=Published/EmeraldFullTextArticle/Articles/2900030202.html. We have an editor who, without actually knowing anything about sirens, mermaids or melusines, just prefers the confusing version. I think we needn't be bullied about this: "if Starbucks call it a siren, we call it a siren" etc etc. Wikipedia is a readers' service. Intentionally retaining misleading text is a disservice. I struggle every day with scribblers and others who undermine Wikipedia's credibility, so perhaps I am intolerant. The text above is fully supported by references, here and at Siren, Mermaid and Melusine. I am willing to provide additional references for any statement. --Wetman (talk) 07:21, 28 August 2009 (UTC) My argument that we "call it a siren because Starbucks calls it a siren" is neither bullying nor misleading. I've always said that we have to call it a siren in the absence of any sources identifying it as anything else. I'd probably edit your addition to remove the stuff about the heraldic charge (since that's not supported by a source), but leave in the bit about it's being a melusine, assuming that final source is useful in that regard (haven't had a chance to read it yet). Esrever (klaT) 11:36, 28 August 2009 (UTC) Actually, as I look at it, I'd probably cut almost all of that stuff, since it has nothing to do with Starbucks and is a relatively minor point about the logo. In 2006, Valerie O'Neil, a Starbucks spokeswoman said that the logo is an image of a "twin-tailed siren".[1] The image was more correctly identified as a melusine by Ann Rippin the following year.[2] And as I re-read that, I notice that it seems to sound an awful lot like what's already in the article, so I'd probably have reverted you, too. Esrever (klaT) 11:39, 28 August 2009 (UTC) "The image was more correctly identified as a melusine by Ann Rippin the following year". Total opinion. Also, Wetman, mind your insults. I bloody well do know what a melusine is, and a siren, and a mermaid, but I also know what WP:ORIGINAL RESEARCH is, and I know that Wikipedia is verifiable and not WP:THETRUTH. So before you start characterising other editors as "scribblers", perhaps you should get off your high horse and stick to using reliable sources. The version as it stood was entirely factual and based on sources, and was not at all confusing. It might not satisfy your insistence that the logo really is of a melusine, but that's Wikipedia for you. You'll notice above that I've sourced the book the woodcut was copied from, but without a reliable source telling us that it's original research. Fences&Windows 03:35, 29 August 2009 (UTC) As for confusing, this wording is far too complex for a reader who wants to know about the logo of a coffee company: "Though technically the heraldic charge employed as Starbucks' logo is a melusine displayed, crowned or...". "Heraldic charge"? "displayed, crowned or"? "Employed as"? We're writing a general encyclopedia here; give the poor reader a chance. None of that information is relevant. The current text includes the magic word "melusine", which I added a couple of months ago after sourcing that article by Ann Rippin.

Gold's first published story was "The Prisoner's Release" in the magazine Heat, an adult publication by Sofawolf Press. Gold went on to write novels, starting with Volle, which became the first part of his Argaea fantasy series. Volle won Gold his first Ursa Major Award in 2005 for "Best Anthropomorphic Novel".[7] In 2006, his sequel Pendant of Fortune won the 2006 Ursa Major Award in the same category.[notes 1] Fred Patten reviewed the pair, calling them "arguably the best anthropomorphic novels yet written".[8] He also won that year's "Best Anthropomorphic Short Fiction" for his short story Jacks to Open, published by Fur Rag.[9] Gold won his fourth Ursa Major with Don't Blink (published in Heat), which was voted "Best Anthropomorphic Short Fiction" for 2007.[10] He again won both the "Novel" and "Short Fiction" categories for 2008 with Waterways and In Between respectively.[11] Gold won the same prizes again in the 2009 awards with Out of Position and Drifting.[5] In 2010, Gold was nominated for WSFA Small Press Award for short fiction with his story Race to the Moon.[6]
