message: Why would you want to protect the talk pages from being edited? The talk pages of V, RS, and NOR would redirect to the talk page of ATT and be protected from editing so that the maintainability benefits of combining policies is kept.  Maybe you want to say - The talk pages of V, RS, and NOR would redirect to the talk page of ATT and all 4 articles would be protected from editing so that the maintainability benefits of combining policies is kept.Jeepday 12:45, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The idea is to redirect the talk pages to all go to one page so issues can be dealt with in a manner that reflects all the pages as they are all interrelated. No one would be prevented from changing the policy pages or talking about them any more than on other policy pages. This simply centralises talk onto one joint page.

replies: text: This will produce a very long talk page. There is a line between V and NOR, if only one of degree; having separate discussion pages, perhaps with cross-reference templates, may be more convenient. Interested editors will watch all of the pages anyway. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 16:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Category talk:Mythological ships

message: I propose that the category :Category:Mythological ships be deleted.
The reasons are 1. The very low number of entries makes it of limited usefulness. 2. It is controversial (see Talk:Noah's Ark) that Noah's Ark, the most well known 'ship' listed is in this category. WP:CAT states "be careful of NPOV when creating or filling categories. Unless it is self-evident and uncontroversial that something belongs in a category, it should not be put into a category". rossnixon 02:13, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:John William Salter

message: Unless there is significant objection, I propose that the taxa sections be either heavily trimmed of the details that are not relevant to John William Salter (type locality, synonym and homonym names, detailed history of citations), or deleted fully.--Kevmin § 21:16, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Support. There is far too much intricate and excessive detail throughout; even professional taxonomists would not expect to find this much detail in an encyclopedia article. In fact, the entire bloated "Fossils named in honour of John William Salter" section should be drastically cut and/or transferred to Wikispecies. These rather trivial aspects are granted far too much weight per WP:PROPORTION, WP:DUEWEIGHT (and good taste).--Animalparty! (talk) 23:53, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

Talk:John Wilson Croker

message: Bad review by TBM being payback for Croker repeatedly besting him in debate seems implausible
Carlyle was pretty dismissive about Croker's Boswell as wellRjccumbria (talk) 01:10, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I had thought there was a further clincher in the timing 
* Review was in Sept 1831 issue of Edinburgh Review
* TBMs maiden speech in House of Commons was Sept 20 1831
Croker was next speaker and may or may not have laid a glove on TBMs argument, but either way TBM's review would have already been written.:but it turns out that 20/09/1831 is not TBM's maiden speech; it is merely the first speech for which Hansard spells his name right : he previously appears as Mr Macauley.

Talk:Master recording

message: In regards to the Master Recording information. A manufacturer that was recently contacted said that the "Gold Master" does refer to the color of the disk. More specificaly, the metal used in the disk. 
When CD's first came out, they were primarily coated in gold. As CD's became more and more popular they also became cheaper, using a silver coating and some don't even use metal anymore, they use silicon.
When manufacturing a CD, there is an acceptable ammount of information loss (approx. 160 errors) to stay within Red Book specifications. While using convertional store bought CD-R's may work just fine, a gold disk burned at single speed will most likely be a more reliable choice.
The greener a CD-R appears, the cheaper it is!— Preceding unsigned comment added by  24.78.240.237   (talk) 16:22, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

You also need to read The Life of Jonathan Baldwin Turner by Mary Carriel.Be sure to read front to back. You should read the many citations that I have listed....50 and see the view of very intelligent writers....deans of universities, professors, Principals, newspapermen, etc. To print a story in the newspaper is should be based on truth or the writer could be sued for libel.

message: This article has inherited a mistake from its sole reference, where José Gregorio born 1795 is confused with his father Gregorio born 1773. The reference of this article where this mistake is found is not a historical record or research, but an article by the presidency of El Salvador.
But according to page 115 of Miguel R. Ortega. Morazán: laurel sin ocaso : biografía, Volumen 3. Ediciones II Centenario, Fundación Morazánica Honduras, referenced in the Wikipedia page for Carlos Salazar y Castro in Spanish (URL: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Salazar_Castro?wprov=sfti1) and accessible through Google Books (URL: https://books.google.no/books?redir_esc=y&hl=no&id=MPtqAAAAMAAJ&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=Gregorio), José Gregorio and Carlos Salazar Castro were brothers, not father and son.
It is also clear on pages 83-84 of "San Salvador y sus Hombres", published in 1938 by the Ministry of Education, that General Carlos Salazar y Castro and José Gregorio were brothers, not father and son.

message: This unambiguously refers to Luigi Lablache (the elder). He does seem also to have had a grandson called Luigi, who may actually also have been an opera singer, which is confusing. In any case Stewart Granger cannot have been this man's grandson, because this man died in 1858, and Stewart Granger was born in 1913! So the article is wrong. Luigi Lablache (the younger) seems to have lived in St Pancras from the 1911 census, and was born in 1850, and married to Jane (maiden name unknown at this time). So, Luigi the younger was alive in 1911, so it's not a stretch to imagine he was alive in 1912-13 also, around the time of Stewart Granger's conception and birth.
