Vaseline
Specifically in the generic form in many languages, vaseline is not spelled with a capital V as it is a generic term. (Just as one example, here is the official Danish spelling of vaseline: https://dsn.dk/soeg/?soegeord=vaseline). Of course, in German the generic form would still be capitalized, but that is because all nouns are capitalized in German.currentTag: Visual edit

Moon landing conspiracy theories
Requested citation: I can't find proof of the "more than 40 years" claim in the citation. And it seems to claim that they only started several years after the first moon landing (translated it says "since earlier than 1983/1984"); if they started immediately after the landing, it would be "more than 50 years" (while "more than 40" mathematically includes "more than 50", it would be a really weird way of stating it). But when did the conspiracy theories actually start "holding public interest"?Tag: Visual edit

Spinal stenosis
→Diagnosis: Requested further description of illustration. It is unclear for the layperson (our readers) what the arrows point to, and it's frustrating to see arrows but not being able to identify what they actually point to and why that is spinal stenosis. And without that explanation, the illustration seems almost pointless.Tag: Visual edit

Führer
In Danish, the word "fører" only has partly the same meaning as in German (source: I am Danish); it is instead as in Swedish, as already described. I don't know how it is in Norwegian, so I tried to keep the original uncited claim about the meaning in Norwegian, but requested a citation. Since the claim was wrong about Danish, it might be wrong about Norwegian too.Tag: Visual edit

Ramani Durvasula
Typos etc. Requested citation for current relationship (a book from 2019 cannot say anything about a current relationship, if that was supposed to be the source). Marked dead citation. Added that "Doctor of Philosophy" means PhD, as I believe PhD is a much more known name for it, and to avoid misunderstandings, as in many countries having a PhD doesn't make you a "doctor".Tag: Visual edit

Dictator game
There is something wrong in the way this is phrased. It is not rational to maximize one's own payoffs (selfishness is not a rational behaviour), so we cannot *as Wikipedia* claim that acting selfishly is rational. Some might certainly *believe* it is, but that doesn't make it so. So to mend this problem a bit, I have now put "rational" in quotation marks. It can be further improved by rephrasing and explaining this in the text.Tags: Visual editMobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

Definiteness
I felt an explanation and an example was needed for those who don't know what "morphologically" means, so I added a short explanation and an example from Danish. There is room for improvement in what I added (please improve if you can), but I think it's better than not giving an example. I know there is a wikilink on "morphologically", but our articles should be readable without following links, so a short explanation of what is linked to can be useful to get the gist.Tag: Visual edit

Gene Haas
I have no idea what an indexer is, and even trying to look it up on the internet gave no answers. Is it officially called something else? And can we please link to the Wikipedia article about the thing?Tags: Visual editMobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

Transcendental Meditation technique
Removed unclear claim that some techniques ask students to be alarmed by random thoughts or that they deliberately don't require students not to be alarmed (the only two interpretations I can think of). That claim seems unlikely, and if the claim is stated, those other techniques should be mentioned explicitly so it can be checked if this is really true - which it very likely isn't.Tags: Visual editMobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

8 House
Corrected the Danish name. The name is officially "8TALLET" in Danish, with shouting all capital letters. Notice that the correct spelling in Danish would be "8-tallet" (meaning "the digit 8"), but that is not the official spelling of the building.

Ramana Maharshi
→Reincarnation: Removed link as per Joshua Jonathans claim in edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ramana_Maharshi&oldid=prev&diff=1180833799 "not exactly what ajativada is". This was one of the points of my original edit – to reveal a hidden claim (through a link) that apparently is not true (which is quite likely, as it would be strange if Maharshi followed any doctrine). And if it is not true, the link should also be removed; hereby done.Tags: RevertedVisual edit

Ramana Maharshi
→Reincarnation: Replaced a "hidden" link to ajativada with text that openly mentions ajativada, as per WP:SURPRISE. The text should be written to have the same content as when printed on paper; this also makes the hidden claim explicit and thus more easily challenged.Tags: RevertedVisual edit

Alan Watts
Added another link to Epicureanism. While there was already one earlier in the article, we cannot expect everyone to read the entire rather long article from start to finish. I, for one, didn't read the entire article and needed a link to Epicureanism from this place.Tags: Visual editMobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

Alan Watts bibliography
It is unclear what "these works" refer to. Writings and recorded talks have just been mentioned, but since books are also writings, the sentence doesn't quite make sense and should be clarified.Tags: Visual editMobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit
