"It is believed", "some people prefer", "Various cycles are suggested", "Some sources suggest" - all weasel words that need cited or amended. --duncan 23:13, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I disagree with the second and third ones. "Some people prefer", to me, simply says that there are multiple ways it can go, as does "various cycles are suggested". --Ihope127 23:45, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Some people - which people? Are suggested - who by? These are typical of the examples listed at Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words --duncan 07:06, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

I see your point about the second one, but "who by?" doesn't seem a valid question for "various cycles are suggested", as you're asking who suggests various cycles. Still, it doesn't address the question of what a typical cycle length is. --Ihope127 15:36, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Makes sense to me... or maybe I should ask "where is it suggested"? Perhaps a rewording along the lines of "Various cycles can be used", i.e. less a suggestion and more a statement of fact. --duncan 16:28, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Done. I'll look around for supporting (or opposing) evidence for the others, and try to work them out. --Ihope127 00:24, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
