message: I tried to add ru:Жена Потифара ("Potiphar's wife") and got: "The link ruwiki:Жена Потифара is already used by item Q15732436. You may remove it from Q15732436 if it does not belong there or merge the items if they are about the exact same topic."  I don't know enough to know what the deal is with Q15732436, but it's not a Wikipedia article, and it's ridiculous that there's a Russian Wikipedia article on this exact topic that cannot be linked to it.  I hope someone more knowledgeable than I will fix this. Languagehat (talk) 16:20, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: These days, the interwiki links are all associated with a single Wikidata entry. This article is associated with d:Q1148687 (Potiphar), and ru:Жена Потифара is associated with the seperate entry d:Q15732436 (Potiphar's wife). The scope of the two articles is not exactly the same, and so it gets confusing when it comes to Wikidata entries. The Wikidata approach doesn't really fit well with the Wikipedia approach of merging articles when there isn't enough content to have separate ones. JPD (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

message: The New Order song he is nominated for production is actually titled "Guilt is a Useless Emotion."  He did recently remix Depeche Mode's "A Pain that I'm Used to."
Also, he privately released an album with a band called "Sister Spliff and the Frustrated Monks" (he was the bassist) whilst at School. It sold about 85 copies to friends and fans and copies of this must be gold dust now. The band chickened out of calling themselves SSFM as they were selling the album in school so changed their name at the last minute to "The Ashes" (the album was called "Suicide Note".

message: The article says that "Price is best known for his work with Madonna which spanned almost a decade culminating in Madonna's tenth studio album Confessions on a Dance Floor (2005). He began collaborating with Madonna as musical director for her 2001 Drowned World Tour." This reads like Price collaborated with Madonna from 2001 to 2005, which is obviously not "almost a decade."

message: The vague, muddy, ambiguous adverbial phrase "all but" in the statement "Old East Frisian [...] is all but extinct" needs clarification: if the Old East Frisian language is still a living language, more information should be given about where and by whom it is still spoken; if it is in fact extinct, then "all but" must be deleted. If, however, there is legitimate uncertainty among linguists as to the actual current status of Old East Frisian, then that fact must be stated more clearly, with appropriate citation of the sources of the information.—104.244.192.77 (talk) 18:07, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Thomas Bloodworth

message: The article reads in part:
:Prior to his time as mayor, Bloodworth was a wealthy merchant and a member of the mercantile guild the Company of Vintners, although he was a timber merchant.  He was also held the post of Master of the Company for a time.  
The evidence may (or not) support (as to the implication of the crucial explanatory word "primarily" that he was also a wine merchant, rather than a prodigious sot & consumer activist, included in the guild under, say, the Community Advocate Act of 1957)
: ... a wealthy merchant, primarily of timber, a member of the mercantile guild the Company of Vintners, and for a time its Master of the Company.
The existing 'graph should not be permitted to awkwardly stand there fiddling with its cufflinks, but this editor knows not what facts led an editor to write that as they did, and is not undertaking the research needed to fix it.  Another is urged to.--Jerzy•t 16:04, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Having no connection, or never even been to Wales, I just wanted to put down in writing, that I feel this article is heavily biased towards negativity. A large portion of this article is conserned with what could be called "critisism/scandals/controversialities". Some might even blurt out slander or gossip, but I wont. ;)
I feel that an encyclopædia should be much more sinisterly be reporting clear factualities than this page about Swansea University.
It's ok to have a "recent critisms"-ish section, but I feel the lack of substance in this article.

message: Sadly, some would say that the article doesn't go nearly far enough in its negative comments.
The scandals referred to are not isolated incidents but follow a general theme.  For students this means that they get to live in one of the most pleasant university towns in the country but graduate with degress that are considered less-than-second-class by most academics.
Perhaps this isn't the only university with these problems but Swansea may be the most acute example. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Abertawe63 (talk • contribs) 19:39, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Treasure hunting (marine)

message: I've changed the sentence reading 
:"But the aim of treasure hunting is profit, not the study of human cultures through the recovery, documentation, and analysis of material remains and environmental data." 
to 
:"Treasure hunting activity, however, is primarily motivated by potential for profit."
as the former seems to be NPOV in presuming that genuine scientific interest and profit-seeking activity are mutually exclusive (evidenced in the "...not..." phrase), and thereby makes negative implications regarding the character of the treasure-hunters who also claim to pursue legitimate research.

Talk:HEGA

message: 1) Editing page to fix error:  It is High Efficiency Gas ADsorption, not ABsorption-- they are distinct and different processes.
2) Pardon me, I'm new to Wikipedia editing, so I may be doing this wrong. 
This may seem odd, but I work for the only company that currently seems to use HEGA in its air purifiers. I found this article while trying to ascertain whether it's our proprietary technology or not. (I have an appointment to talk to our engineering staff, but I figured Google could help me in the meantime, right?)
The only source cited on the page is uninformative. The information on the page seems to be taken from a brochure my company made some time ago, and while it was rephrased to be less like an ad, it still does not provide much scientific insight.
I ask all this because I am in the process of attempting to write an informative, somewhat scientific but readable by laymen article for the dealers of our products to use in answering customer questions about the HEGA filters. If such an article is informational as opposed to salesy, would it be useful to edit this article with the information I can provide?
As it stands I do not feel that this article is very informative. But of course, if no one else in the industry uses this product, as seems to be the case, it would be difficult to avoid mentioning the one company that does. I don't want to be a shill for my company-- I actually signed up for Wikipedia for personal interests and am annoyed that this is the first article I've found to edit-- but neither does it make sense to *not* explain that only one company uses the product.
However. In my searching I have discovered one other product by an unrelated company bearing the same name: Camfil Farr, evidently an industrial filter manufacturer, has a product called the High Efficiency Gas Adsorbers which are apparently filtration devices for nuclear labs. This product page uses the acronym as if it had been defined elsewhere, but I cannot ascertain where.
Please advise?
