Talk:Tenavaram temple

message: This article is already listed to have several problems. I wish to further this by adding the following.
# The place of which the article is about, is located in Sri Lanka where it is not known as by the name of the article. Therefore I suggest renaming of the article to read "Devinuwara temple" which is the name how it is identified throughout Sri Lanka.
# This article is written from the perspective of information on Tamil civilization. But Devinuwara temple is a place/temple complex which is located in Sri Lanka and holds value of both historic relevance and as a place of worship for multiple faiths. Importance of this place to the Tamil civilization is only part of the picture. The article needs cleaning up as such. Right now it reads as a footnote in Tamil civilization project. 
# Parts of the article seem to be written from a perspective trying to imply racial/ethnic priority of a group of people (in this case: Tamil civilization), rather than being objective. The can be observed in several claims in varying degrees, which some locals might even find offensive.
# The article is not based on peer reviewed archaeological work for the most part.
I have not edited the article and leave it to fair reviewing. And I sincerely hope this section does not get edited out before these matters are solved.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.157.111.223 (talk) 16:42, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Ezeu

message: Just in case, I'm offering an explanation of the promotion here:
The final tally was 37-10-14, which calculates to 78% support, making it a bureaucrat call. However, oppose #10 was cast by a user on their second day of editing, which is generally considered to be suspicious and subject to discounting. Discounting that vote, the tally was 37-9-14, which is 80%, which calls for promotion. 
I also took into account that several oppose voters made a specific point to note "weak" oppose, and that several neutral voters noted in inclination towards support. All in all, I felt the general consensus was for promotion, and with the one vote discounted, the RfA fell within the 80% promotion standard. Essjay (Talk • Connect) 19:39, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Matthew Woll

message: I'd argue for Mid-Level Importance.  Woll and John P. Frey were two of the most important labor leaders at the American Federation of Labor during the presidency of William Green.  Green, in many ways, was their puppet.  This was a formative period for the American labor movement (formation of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, passage of the Norris-LaGuardia Act, passage of the National Labor Relations Act, the Great Depression, etc.).  Woll, Frey and Green dominated the American labor movement.  Woll and Frey's roles are not widely known.  But that's like saying most people don't know that Edith Wilson began running the country after her husband, Woodrow Wilson, had a stroke.  She did, and that's of at least mid-level importance.  So is Woll's role. Tim1965 03:06, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Bicycle monarchy

message: Wikipedia is an encylopedia, not a dictionary.  It is not enough to define the term, you must describe how it came about and why.  As such, the fact that this term is an insult and why it is insulting is essential to the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gurps npc (talk • contribs) 19:45, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you present some evidence that the term is always intended as an insult then? I have often taken it to mean that the monarchies of certain countries have a more informal 'closer to the people' style than the British monarchy, which could very reasonably be considered a compliment. Please review Wikipedia's policy on verifiability, avoiding weasel words and citing sources for assertions you make in articles. It is better to have a short entry that's little more than a dictionary definition than a longer entry that's simply inaccurate. Please also take care with your grammar and spelling when editing articles. — Trilobite 13:13, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Brookwood Labor College

message: I argue for a Mid-Level importance rating for several reasons.  First, the labor education movement was an extremely important aspect of the American Federation of Labor's (AFL) activities in the early part of the 1900s. Second, Brookwood Labor College was the foremost labor college in this movement.  Third, the battle over Brookwood led the collapse of the labor education movement as a formal activity within the AFL, and is arguably the turning point which marked the beginning of the "conservative" take-over of the AFL under President William Green. Fourth, Brookwood numbered among its students some of the most influential radical labor leaders to emerge over the next quarter century.  Fifth, Brookwood served as a model for radical labor education in the U.S., and was mimicked by many labor education centers (such as the Highlander Research and Education Center.
