message: The poem is also skeptical of the Devil's existence and of his intentions to punish sinners for all eternity as in the stanza.
Hear me, auld Hangie, for a wee,
An’ let poor damned bodies be;
I’m sure sma’ pleasure it can gie,
Ev’n to a deil,
To skelp an’ scaud poor dogs like me,
An’ hear us squeel!''
That verse doesn't appear to show any skepticism that the devil evists, nor that he intends to punish sinners.  Rather, it seems to be skeptical that he would enjoy doing so, and is pleading with him therefore to stop doing so. Iapetus (talk) 08:33, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

text: According to Indian copyright laws, the whole speech is not protected by any copyright. Some have thought otherwise because they attribute the speech to Nehru, who died on 1964 and so protected for 70 years from the death of the author. But the speech is not a personal work of Nehru. It is a part of resolution passed by the interim Prime Minister of India on 14th August 1947 in the Constituent Assembly of India in the capacity of being a member in that assembly. The whole proceedings of that assembly, with the speech as an integral part, was published on 1950 by Lok saba, a body of Indian Government. By Indian copyright act of 1956 (chapter V section 25), any work by Government after 60 years of publication is in public domain.

thread_title: Specific County Court Info

message: I usually look to our own article titles for guidance on the proper capitalization, hyphenation, and other punctuation issues. In the case of my edits here, I believe I used Magistrates' Court of Victoria (with the apostrophe). It also refers to Supreme Court of Victoria (cap'd), etc. Australian court hierarchy also supports caps.
I see now Magistrates Court of Queensland (no apostrophe, capitalized, as are the other levels of courts in the Infobox). A look at the official website confirms this style.
A study and reconciliation of all of the relevant articles and official websites seems to be needed. If there is a country-wide style, we should use it. If it's state-specific, the country-scope articles should probably use the predominant state style. If it's inconsistent within the states, we probably need to try to figure out what the "correct" intended style is. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 11:31, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

message: I changed "Fuku" back to "Outfit" (as it was earlier 2013). Calling them "Sailor Fuku" makes absolutely no sense. "Fuku" is merely a Japanese word for clothing, it will literally translate as "sailor outfit/uniform/clothes". I see no reason to use Japanese words here, as English ones fit just fine. As such, "Fuku" has been changed back to "outfit(s)".

message: Someone recently edited the "gakuran" section, stating the uniforms are derived from the French military. That is actually not true. They derive from Prussian cadet uniforms. In Meiji Japan mostly Prussia (and the German Empire) acted as a role model for modernization in the fields of military and education, eventually also inspiring the gakuran boy's uniform.

message: One Rdr to the accompanying article has its title, g//z/r, dolled up a little, including making the initial "g" display on the Rdr page as lower case. Now, we would only consider putting it in italics as well as lower case if we believed that the creator of the name or symbol did so, and i noticed, after staring a little that -- contrary to my initial impressions -- none of the external pages i checked, including one of the founder's, had the italics. What some have is "G//Z/R", and for me (and i assume for now) the colleague who preceded me, is a tendency for the sloping lines to give the eye a faint impression of both the capital letters and slashes tilting to the right a bit. Evidence that there are real italics in an authoritative source could of course change the situation, but for now the evidence is zero, and at worst we await verification that people, who aren't as goofy as i (and thus aren't forced to  choose between fighting tooth and nail to distinguish real italics from illusory, and giving up looking) come up with authoritative examples with real italics.   The good news is that i solved the problem of how to get both lower case and italic to display without warnings or quirks on a working Rdr page, and if it's needed again (especially for this page) the method will be there in the Rdr's superseded revisions.--Jerzy•t 12:18, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

It seems to me that this is a graphical device and not evidence that the title could be construed as simply Forever. I can't find any evidence for this title's use in the article Batman Forever, at IMdb, or anywhere else I looked.
