message: Can't believe nobody created this genre list before! This is cut down from list of television programs, and probably omits shows which never made it to the UK, or which I've forgotten over the last 40 years.

message: Isn't this page a duplicate of the "Crime television series" category, except that it has less on it and it includes a few shows which don't have a page. I can't see any reason why any show would be listed here and not there, or vice versa (assuming any show is worthy of creating a stub article for).
I did launch into a project for another area of wiki to help auto-generate this sort of 'list page', although was told that list pages aren't very 'encyclopedaic' and it never took off.

Talk:Canadian popular culture

message: Just a small correction. You state that about one third of Canadians speak French as their mother tongue. This was true for most of the 20th century, however it isn't anymore.
According to the 2001 census, only 22.6% of Canadians speak French as their mother tongue (just over one-fifth of the population). More recent census information is not available yet, but it is expected that that figure is probably even lower now. Because of a plummeting birth rate in Quebec, the lure of English as "the international language" (unfortunately, I think), and a far higher proportion of recent immigrants to Canada who speak English as a first or second language as compared to the relatively small number who speak French, this number is dropping every year.

Talk:Float chamber

message: My Dodge Van engine is a 360 CU (1986) and the engine is hard to start after several days. Once running, it runs great. My Mechanic says the Carb bowl is porous and the gas leaks out over several days. Can this be fixed? And what is needed?
ralphrw2003@yahoo.com
:Is the carb bowl made of aluminium like most of them usually are? In which case I doubt it's porous. In fact this sounds like b/s. It's possible that there is an airleak or something that is causing the fuel to evaporate over a few days, or maybe the system is designed so it gradually drains back into the tank - many older designs do this. There might not be much you can do about it - modern fuel injection systems use a high pressure fuel pump to pressurise the whole system as soon as the ignition is turned on, and this helps give instant starting. Older systems that have mechanical low pressure fuel pumps and carburettors rarely give instant starting. I guess you could investigate whether a one-way non-return valve could be put in the fuel line, but even that might not help. I suppose the question is, "what did it do when it was new?".

message: An anonymous user in the IP range 4.228 has been repeatedly trying to insert this paragraph for several days now:
:It is worth noting in this connection that patriotism and nationalism exists all throughout the world. One particularly egregious example is the Canadian press, which often purports that Canada is more racially diverse than the United States. Many Canadians believe this, when in fact, 87% of Canada is white . Many Canadians are also unaware that slavery existed in Canada's history and that discrimination still exists.
But Get-back-world-respect and I have been removing it because this paragraph is purely about Canada, whereas this article is about what people think of America. Rather than discuss it here, he's been trying to sneak it in via various deceitful edit practices.

Talk:Jāņi

message: A very disapointing article! In addition to being incomplete in explaining the tie, or lack of tie, between the summer solstice and Jāņi, there are also many glaring inaccuracies!
To be fair, these same misconceptions are held by a vast majority of Latvians! In the eyes of most, who have not studied pre Christian Latvian folklore and traditions, Jāņi and the summer solstice celebrations are one and the same, but from a historical perspective this is entirely inaccurate!
The summer solstice as celebrated by Pagan tribes prior to the introduction of Christianity was never called "Jāņi", nor was Jānis a Latvian deity! Jānis is the Latvian form of the name John and the name of the post Pagan celebration relates to John the Baptist.
To ease introduction of Christianity to Pagan tribes, the Roman Catholic Church adapted Pagan traditions to its own ends. Thus the winter solstice became Christmas, spring -easter and the summer solstice was tied to the purported birthday of John the Baptist. 
Therefore, to suggest that a celebration created by the Roman Catholic Church "contain(s) no reference to Christianity..." is abusrd!
The suggestion that the frequent refrain "ligo", used in folk songs related to the solstice/Jāņi, is related to the modern Latvain word līgo (sway) is also highly questionable. A more accepted origin is the Liv word meaning "so be it" or "so shall it be".
As with any history that had only an oral tradition, much has been irretrievably lost. It is unfortunate that poorly written uninformed articles such as this one further corrupt it!212.93.100.166 (talk) 11:55, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

----------------------
alphacat 14:47, 20 Oct 2005   re: the suggestion that this page be merged with the Mandaean page - while the concept of Johannitism is embraced within the Mandaean religion, it (the religion) is not the sole arbiter of this concept; there is also a current debate as to whether or not the Knights Templar were influenced by this idea. If anything perhaps it should be a subset of Gnosticism.
re: references to the pre-Christian origins mentioned by Bacchiad - further on in the article we find "... There is some confusion that the Mandaeans came after John the Baptist, while in fact they existed before him; according to Mandaean dogma, Mandaeanism was the original religion of Adam. In the Mandaean library of scriptures there is a book of John called Sidra d Yahia, which includes a dialogue between John and Jesus."
- mind you, I'm not in any way saying that they definitely ARE of pre-Christian origin, chronologically; just citing what was in the original article.
----------------------
I'm puzzled by the pre-Christian thing.  According to the article, Mandaeans have been around since the 1st century AD, which at best gives them a couple decade lead on Christainity.  Furthermore, the only historical sources cited are Christian and Islamic.  And St. John is a central figure.  Is there anything whatsoever to support the pre-Christian thing?  Might not "originated at the same period as early Christianity" or something similar be more accurate?  Bacchiad

Mandaeaism (the religion)  is different than  Mandaeans (the people) .  Which data you want on this page?  Both?
