Talk:Tessenjutsu

message: The warning that was previously placed here about the this art being fictitious has been removed. Simply because a term doesn't show in a dictionary, doesn't mean it's not real. Anyway, searching for tassenjutsu gives plenty of results and a few books, which assures that this is not a fictional martial art, even though it may be in decline.
"SECRETS OF THE SAMURAI" IS NOT A RELIABLE SOURCE. NOR ARE POSTINGS TO DISCUSSON GROUPS AND WEB PAGES BY REENACTORS WHO ARE ATTEMPTING TO USE TESSENJUTSU TO JUSTIFY USING SHIELDS AS JAPANESE REENACTORS IN SIMULATED ARMORED COMBAT.
A -JUTSU NOT APPEARING IN DAIJIRIN IS PRETTY MUCH EQUIVALENT TO THE GATLING GUN NOT APPEARING IN WEBSTERS UNABRIDGED DICTIONARY. DAIJIRIN IS AN OVERSIZED, SMALL PRINT, 2000+ PAGE JAPANESE-JAPANESE DICTIONARY PUBLISHED BY SANSEIDO WHICH IS A MAJOR PUBLISHER OF JAPANESE SCHOLARLY MATERIALS AND REFERENCE WORKS.
FURTHER, A SEARCH FOR TESSENJUTSU USING EITHER KANA OR KANJI AT www.google.co.jp FAILS TO FIND ANY REFERENCES TO TESSENJUTSU APPEARING ON WEB SITES MAINTAINED BY ACADEMIC OR SCHOLARLY ORGANIZATIONS!! FOR THAT MATTER, I DIDN"T EVEN NOTICE ONE ORIGINATING WITH BUDOKAN!!!
FINALLY. THIS IS NOT A MATTER OF A SINGLE DICTIONARY. "TESSENJUTSU" DOES NOT APPEAR IN THE FOLLOWING KOGOJITEN (DICTIONARIES OF ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL JAPANESE): :

:This is an encyclopedia, not a dictionary.  Tessenjutsu (鉄扇術) is mentioned on ja: briefly at ja:武芸一覧.  The short description there is consistent with the article here.  There is also at least one book available listed at Amazon Japan and Kinokuniya, ISBN:480690239X, with the term on the cover that appears to be consistent with the article.  I've never heard of it before, but I'm willing to believe in its existence.  Reading WP:AFD or WP:HOAX#Dealing_with_hoaxes would be a better way of dealing with the problem than vandalizing the article.  Thanks! skip (t / c) 06:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Unicorn (disambiguation)

message: Removed the following content from unicorn (disambiguation):
:On May 15, 2006 there was a small article in the Dutch newspaper Het Parool. The name of the operation of the Dutch troops going to Afghanistan was "Unicorn". The troops wanted to change the name, because they did not want to be seen as "sissies". According to a spokesman, unicorn is in Anglo-Saxon countries part of the gay culture. In the Dutch army, however, it is not a problem to be a gay soldier. In the Netherlands, it is forbidden to discriminate against people because of their sexual preference. Some people still discriminate.
Something might be done with it, but it doesn't belong on a disambiguation page. (I've copyedited it in case it gets used elsewhere.)

thread_title: Removed content

message: Just for a more in-depth explanation than what I will be able to give in the edit summary, I am about to remove a number of entries from this disambiguation page because they are not articles whose name would be easily confused with the search term "Unicorn".  As described at Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Partial_title_matches, just because an article has the name of the disambiguated word in it does not mean that it should be included on the disambiguation page.  Only if the title of the article is legitimately confusable with the term "Unicorn" should it be included on this page.  If anything that I remove isn't clear, please feel free to ask/let me know.

Talk:Midge (disambiguation)

message: I propose that the page Midge go directly to the article presently called Midge (insect) for the following reasons:
*The preponderance of incoming links to all midge articles are destined for Midge (insect)
*Midge (insect) is the only non-trivial encyclopaedic article among the disambig entries
*A new disambig page Midge (disambiguation) can be created to sort out the more trivial articles.
*A hat note above the new Midge page can refer readers to the new Midge (disambiguation) page.
*This new arrangement will save many readers considerable time by going to the predominant usage 
*Editors will have an easier time linking to the correct page, because most of them are trying to link to the insect
*This new scheme will avoid mistaken links (of which there are now at least six) of articles trying to link to the insect article, and are presently going to the present disambig page by mistake.

Talk:Jesse Adam Macbeth

message: "To meet Wikipedia's quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup."
Nah, it just needs redirected over to the article "Jesse_MacBeth", since that one has a lot more detail and is already in the proper Wikipedia format.  I just posted this hastily thrown together article so anyone hearing about the controversy and doing a Google search for "Jesse Adam MacBeth" would get a hit here at Wikipedia.  The other article didn't show up when I did a search before posting my rantish article.
Let me add I think it's pretty f'ed up that the anti-war idiots, who bought this guy's story hook line and sinker, are trying to twist it around and suggest that this incident was an attempt to discredit the anti-war movement. Noooo, folks, he's one of yours, and if you weren't so eager to believe the worst about our troops, you would have taken two seconds to see how full of BS that punk was.  Pathetic!!!

message: There are a few mentions of Ukkalā in the Pali canon.
The merchants who first offered alms to the Buddha were from there:

Just then the merchants Tapussa and Bhallika were traveling from Ukkala to that area.
Also two mysterious ascetics were from there:
"an4.30:8.2": "Yepi te paribbājakā ahesuṁ ukkalā vassabhaññā ahetukavādā akiriyavādā natthikavādā, tepi imāni cattāri dhammapadāni na garahitabbaṁ na paṭikkositabbaṁ amaññiṁsu.

thread_title: Reference format

message: (I echo WeniWidiWiki and Alai's requests that we attempt to keep these comments brief, preferably less than an screenful/edit page long if possible. I'm sure some people who would help here are not doing so because they glaze over reading these comments and trying to get up to speed. One reason why I keep starting new sections is because it becomes difficult to navigate long and unwieldy sections.)
I know this particular issue seems to have been beaten into the ground but I'm going to have one more go at it. Not all "Gaelic traditionalists" (note small "t") are the self-identified "Gaelic Traditionalists" (note capital "T") who are described in this article. Nor is every mention of "Gaelic traditionalists" a reference to this particular polytheistic movement. Case in point: the second footnote cite/reference in the article to this source: http://orgs.carleton.edu/Druids/ARDA2/doc/2part11-3c1.doc. Reading the reference, it seems quite clear to me the reference to "Gaelic traditionalists" in the document is to Neo-druids who incorporate Gaelic traditions, and who are describing THEMSELVES, NOT to the "Gaelic Traditionalists" of this Wikipedia article. This goes back to Martin's comments above. Gaelic traditionalists (small t) are not an organized, hierarchical group. They are not the group described in this article. There doesn't seem to be a centralized philosophy or structure, aside from a common interest in preserving Gaelic traditions. Once again, there seems to be a conflation going on here between rather different movements with some points of commonality. Therein lies the confusion. --Mac 21:38, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You are right Sean. It is confusing. To be concise, that blurb is speaking about us, but appears confusing because they don't understand that there are differences. If you had been a part of whats been going on for 13 years you would easily be able to sort it out. As for the "organized, hierarchical group", that is why I was pushing to make sure it was shown that Gaelic Traditionalism as it originated in this movement, were communities with elected officers.

thread_title:  Merge with Chola Dynasty 

message: Historically speaking, first the Pandyas, the Andhras (I feel they are the original Dravidas - but will not claim I am correct), the Cholas and the Cheras definitely deserve mention among the oldest kingdoms of India (which continued into the new age or the AD era). The Puranas and especially the epics, Mahabharat and Ramayan mention them. Pandyas of Madurai in any case are universally agreed upon as the Oldest known Indian empire (not a Kingdom mainly because they occupied parts out of their own territory even during the BC era like Thamiraparani which is nothing but modern Sri Lanka) and Cholas were their closest contemporaries. Ashokan edicts of 272 BC also continue the same theme, mentioning the Cholas, Pandyas and the Cheras as independent empires on the southern boundaries of the Magadha empire.
Without wanting to elaborate anything further, I am absolutely convinced that inclusion of relevant portions of this particular article (if not the whole article itself) with the main Chola Dynasty article would go a long way in enhancing the quality of that article.
Other contributors may also come up with their views.
