Talk:St. Clair Drake

message: This is just a note, in case anyone's watching the article, to let you know that next week this article will (hopefully) be expanded thoughtfully by participants in Roosevelt University's first edit-a-thon. I'll be there to help new users, and we expect that the event will successfully add to this article with well-documented additional information about Drake's life and career. If folks have any concerns in advance, I hope they'll let me know so that I can do a good job helping to keep the expansion of the article moving in a positive direction. And if you are an admin or otherwise experienced Wikipedian happening by here on Thursday and you notice a new user making a mistake or failing to observe a particular convention, I hope you'll remember WP:DNB and show some Wikilove to the university students who will be learning for the first time how we do what we do. I'd appreciate it, anyway -- and I'll be on Wikipedia throughout the event, in addition to being present in the room where we're editing, so a note to my talk page will reach me quickly and (hopefully) allow me to address your concern right away with the new editor. Here's to the continuing growth of this excellent resource! Jwrosenzweig (talk) 16:03, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Subject of upcoming Edit-a-thon 

message: I removed the redundant (and confusing) "Sources" section -- I'm copying the four sources listed there into this talk page.  Obviously if anyone can use one of these sources to add a citation to the article, it should be added back, but right now all we know about these things is someone added them to the article years ago but without attributing any facts or assertions to any of them specifically.

Talk:Robert Hayden

message: This famous poem by Robert Hayden does not (yet?) have its own article. Currently, the only reference to the poem in Wikipedia is in fact a redirect to THIS article. It would seem that there is no point for a "double square brackets" link, since this just refers back to the article about the poet (a classic case of circular referencing). Try it by clicking on the topic to this section if you don't believe me! You can tease it to a red link by inserting "quotes" (inverted commas) into the link, or changing the capitalisation, but that is not very helpful either. Sooner or later someone will probably write an article about the poem, and at that time inserting a link here will be very useful indeed - until then it will do nothing but add confusion and dismay. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 22:11, 8 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Those Winter Sundays]] 

message: The article quotes the last part of part IX of Hayden’s poem “Words in the Mourning Time,” describing the excerpt as the ending to the whole work. However, there is a part X, which is also significantly related to gm the author’s faith.
I do not contest or affirm the significance or interpretation of the quote. Leif Nabil 01:18, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Rise Up Singing

message: According to page II, under Acknowledgements, "This book took fifteen years to bring to birth. ... We want to thank the Farm & Wilderness campers who first helped develop the idea of organizing a lyric book like this one". 
The book was originally distributed as photocopied sheets, then spiral bound into a small book, which was distributed "just for our own use" sans copyright information. Over a three year period the copyright status and authorship was "exhaustively" researched, and some songs were tossed because they could not be included, many added, and "just for our own use" was no longer needed. The result, now called "Rise Up Singing", was published first in 1988. Maybe someone else can remember what the earlier versions were called. "Wasn't that a time". And no, that wasn't what it was called. That's just a reference to that period in history. 199.125.109.126 (talk) 03:47, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  "fake" book 

message: I was the Associate Editor of the sequel to "Rise Up Singing," "Rise Again." I got my hand slapped for correcting a link in the article on "Rise Up Singing," so I won't bother trying to edit anything again. But there used to be a pretty good and accurate article on "Rise Up Singing," and now it has been edited down to almost nothing. This songbook is very popular in singing circles all over the United States, and it has sold over a million copies since it was first published in 1988. It has lyrics and chords for 1200 songs, and there is an accompanying Website, https://www.riseupandsing.org/  that has YouTube recordings of almost every song so people can learn the songs. The book emphasizes folk songs, but includes religious, pop, Broadway, and other genres of music. Please consider revising this article and including some of the information that used to be in the article.

message: I am planning to expand this article from a stub as part of a seminar-based edit-a-thon hosted at the UBC Asian Studies Department. I will be copying all the content onto my sandbox page and editing it there before moving it back, at which point I will make a note below on this talk page.

replies: text: The above-mentioned expansion has been completed and applied to the article.

Talk:Toronto Union Station (1873)

message: I suspect the Original Union Station was the one that supposedly received Durban station's roof.  The story goes that both stations had their roofs designed by a firm in London, UK, and each station's plans were sent to the other station by mistake.  As a result, the old station in Durban, South Africa (sub tropical region) has a roof capable of sustaining 5 meters of snow.  The Toronto station's roof collapsed after the first snows.  Was this the Original Union Station?  The Durban station was completed in 1896.  You can find references to it here:  http://www.google.com/search?q=durban+railway+station+toronto . -- leuce (talk) 14:08, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Interesting story, but I doubt it is true.  I have never read anything about the roofs on either the first, second or third Union Station in Toronto collapsing.  From the article, it would appear that this Union Station was designed in Canada, not the U.K.  I also doubt that Canadian railways would have looked to England for advice on how to handle snow. Further, the portion of this Union Station that dated to the 1890s was the office building component on Front Street, so I doubt that plans for a railway station roof would have been used in error.  Also, the photos to which you've linked of the Durban station show a station that is sufficiently different from the former one in Toronto for there to have been any serious plan mix-up. I'm not aware of any other stations from this period in Toronto that had roofs that collapsed in the first winter.  I could be wrong -- maybe the roof of a train shed or something collapsed.  However, the story strikes me perhaps as an urban legend or a factoid -- an important part of local lore in Durban, but not one that is necessarily accurate.  Best of luck tracking it down! --Skeezix1000 (talk) 15:10, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Images should be used to "illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images. The images in the gallery collectively must have encyclopedic value and add to the reader's understanding of the subject." In this case the subject of the article is a historic architectural structure that no longer exists. There is also no page of Wikicommons for the structure. I had placed an additional 4 images (historical photos) on the page in a gallery section to help illustrate the different architectural aspects of the station. These images were removed. I apologize for not making that clear in my edit summary why had added the gallery and the value of the images and for any confusion this caused. I have since removed the one image which illustrated a piece of the architecture which was already conveyed in one of the images on the page (although that image was a drawing and not a photographic image). I will add the architectural value to the descriptions of the images.Monopoly31121993 (talk) 10:36, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Uji Dainagon Monogatari

message: Hello. I suggest renaming this article to Uji Dainagon Monogatari. It is quite literary a "monogatari" of the Dainagon from Uji (meaning Minamoto no Takakuni). Similar recommendation for the disambiguation page as well. Are there any objections? Bendono 15:26, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I renamed it.  I originally gave the article the title I did, since that was the prevailing use.  Uji Dainagon was basically being used as a name, despite the fact that it was a title.  I've changed all references to the "proper" style. Bueller 007 14:40, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
