Talk:Marian Munteanu

message: Coming across this by chance, I have started removing excess material, and rewriting into grammatical English.  There's a lot more to do of both.  DGG (talk) 17:22, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I would restub it entirely: this is self-promotional, riddled with weasel words and editorializing to endorse what is the position of a very controversial man. The article doesn't even begin to mention how problematic an image Mr. Munteanu has in Romania, but instead "preempts" such edits by making insidious allegations about his adversaries and former political associates. Dahn (talk) 22:09, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: We would like to ask you to stop the vandalism actions and intervention that have been recently directed towards this page.
Thus, there are numerous third party sources such as National Geographic, US Congress Documents and famous journalists' reports, quoted on the page.
10 years of teaching at the most prestigious Romanian University is a long period for anyone, as a Professor.
The presence of the material is mainly justified by the role played by Professor Munteanu in the changes occurred in the Eastern Europe in 1989 - 1990. Also, the large quantity of information is justified by his international activities and presence.
It is obvious that these vandalism interventions have nothing in common with the norms of an encyclopedia and we consider them as attacks originating from propagandistic areas and believe such interventions should not be allowed in a free encyclopedia.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bogdan Munteanu (talk • contribs) 07:56, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Ratu

message: David on the Ratu Article as it goes into the Seru Cakobau part shouldn't both perpectives be noted? as you have told me to be Neutral shouldn't both views be shared, I have refernces to back up the points I have written, this is not an argument more just a query? I have not touched it again but I was just wondering?
also I provided references for the translation of Ratu and Adi, why were they removed I thought if anything that would help the article?
and why was my Newspaper reference removed it had relivance and refernce to what was discussed on the page, as the page itself has no reference material? I thought I was helping the article, I don't understand why my edits were removed and not considered further or at least met halfway? anyway I accept your judgement but I am not sure that I fully agree, but I am learning.
please do not take offense I am just sharing my thoughts but I accept your stance.

It's funny how Verata is not even mentioned in any where on this article as it was where the 1st Ratu was from. The " O Koya na Ratu". Interesting indeed Vitia123 (talk) 17:55, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Comments

message: Ra is a prefix in many titles, Ramasi, Ramalo, Rasau, Ratu etc each chief was known by his name and title in pre-colonial era it was the British who formalized the use of "Ratu" to apply like the title "Sir" in the British tradition "Ratu" would literally mean Chief, in modern Fiji it denotes Fijian nobility so as a head of a clan Tevita Momoedonu would correctly carry "Ratu" before his name, again this is my opinion based on research and general discussion amongst Fijians from various regions of our lovely islands, I will include aspects of my above comments in the article once I have th correct details of my references and sources.

Talk:Gordon Wilson (peace campaigner)

message: One does not mean to cavil but the Wilson interview is reprised in Episode 2: 10 Days of Terror of Peter Taylor's BBC Age of Terror series (2008). What he said is quite was quite different to the quote used. Nonetheless it was of the same sentiment. If we can get the actual quote it would be better.

message: "He contacted senior members of the IRA following the bombings which killed two boys in Warrington, England in 1993. (a) Despite his begging them to stop, (b) the IRA issued a statement offering "sincerest condolences and apologies" for his daughter's death. (c) Wilson said his efforts had been "quite pointless"; he also noted that some Protestants never forgave him for meeting the IRA."
*I do not understand the contradiction between the sections (a) and (b).
*Section (b) looks like his mission was successful.
*Section (c) lookes like he was disappointed, because his mission had been unsuccessful.

Talk:Airborne leaflet propaganda

message: This article reads like it was taken directly from a 1950's manual. I think there should be some mention of dissenting opinions that address military propaganda as ineffective.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.10.185.203 (talk) 12:18, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Later during the Korean war a modified version of the leaflet bomb - the 'feather bomb' - was developed by the American military to be used to disseminate biological warfare agents.
What does this have to do with "Airborn leaflet propaganda"? 
It was also controversially claimed by the Chinese government - and supported by a United Nations commission led by the British biochemist and historian of science Joseph Needham - that US had actually used biological weapons during the Korean War. 
Where is the evidence that any U.N. Comission reached this conclusion?
This claim has recently been the subject of a book by two historians. 
The book was published 11 years ago, which hardly makes it "recent".
Incidentally, the review linked to harshly criticized the book, but this information has been completely left out in the article.

thread_title: Sources
Talk:Mariano Rumor

message: A. It seems most of the Biographical information is cited as coming from source 1; however, this is rather unclear due to the manner in which it is cited, and the source itself seems rather vague. The second source also seems to be rather vaguely noted, with no way to actually reach it.
B. Some of the details seem to go a bit too far, but they are all relevant to Rumor's tenures as Prime Minister. It feels like they could be mentioned in a much more succinct manner, rather then expanding on each.
C. The article seems to be neutral, as it is mostly a list of facts without analysis or notation.
D. The two sources listed are, as mentioned; rather vague. While 'Growth to Limits' seems to be a legitimate academic book or journal, the second source from "ANSA" is almost totally vague outside its title, and seems to be from a newspaper or website article.
E. There doesn't seem to be any overwhelming bias or over-representation of anything; the article is, as mentioned, essentially just a list of facts.
F. No citations are linked, and it seems that the largest paragraph (paragraph 1 under the biography) is either mostly uncited or badly cited using the 'Growth to Limits' article.
G. Information on how Rumor came to be a powerful figure in DC, to be Prime Minister, as well as Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Interior would be relevant to this article. Furthermore, information providing greater context to his Premierships would be relevant, and any information about his personal life and possible non-governmental pursuits (eg education) would be relevant as well. Just adding sources and correcting unclear citations already existing would be improvements.

Talk:Graeme Campbell (politician)

message: I have undone this addition of a section entitled 'racism allegations'. It seems to not be about Campbell himself, but an attempt to highlight modern concerns and allegations about the party he founded in general. It may be that the content is much more appropriate to that page, rather than here. Please discuss and reach a consensus before attempting to reinsert. (The IP editor who added it has already been blocked for edit warring elsewhere, and this request is made to avoid further disruption - not to stifle discussion).

Talk:Granville Leveson-Gower, 2nd Earl Granville

message: His interest in education (a subject associated with this office) led to his election (1856) as chancellor of the University of London, a post he held for thirty-five years; and he was a prominent champion of the movement for the admission of women, and also of the teaching of modern languages.
Whereas the Oxford DNB says it was only 15 years (1856-1871) and:
He used his casting vote to block the admission of women to the matriculation examination in 1862, though he seems to have moved to a position of bored acquiescence a few years later.
Negley Harte's history of the University only mentions Granville in image captions but has this for image 164 (page 141):
"The 2nd Earl Granville(1815-1891), the second (and longest serving) Chancellor of the University for thirty-five years from 1856 to 1891."
Which is correct? I'm going with Harte's dates for now. Timrollpickering 11:42, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Sailing hydrofoil

replies: text: I have merged the information from Hydrofoil Multihulls into this article as nearly a month has passed with no objections. =Axlq 03:08, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge

message: According to the definition of sailing hydrofoil used in this article, it requires that upwards lift is produced by a hydrofoil in the water, neither by a foil in the air, nor a foil producing lateral resistance (horizontal lift) or a down force.
No foil used in sailrocket 2 meets this requirement, therefore is there any reason not to completely remove it from this article?
Sailrocket 2 uses one aerofoil for upwards lift (and propulsion), and one hydrofoil for lateral resistance and downforce.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.61.93.234 (talk) 13:48, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  History section? 

message: The article contains a section titled Foiling classes, but in the sailing world "class" has a special meaning in the sense of a centrally-regulate type used to racing.

Crieber (talk) 19:30, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I really like how you improved this article! You added a lot of interesting information, particularly the information about the butterfly's coloration. I changed the wording of one sentence in that section to "The caterpillar mimics certain droppings based on its habitat and which instar it is" to make it clearer. I moved the description of the adult butterfly to the Life cycle section because I personally thought that the Life cycle section looked incomplete without information about the adult butterfly. Also, the images in that section include an adult butterfly, so I felt that it would make sense to have information about the adult in the Life cycle section. I added hyperlinks because I noticed the banner at the top suggesting the addition of more hyperlinks. I mostly connected this page to pages for its Geographic range (like Canada, Cuba, etc.), as you've already linked other relevant pages. Lastly, the Flight section lacks citations. Overall, I really like what you did to the page! Ericapryu (talk) 00:31, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

text: It was a well-written article with a lot of information. The protective coloration section is very interesting. The pictures throughout its various life stages were good additions. Potentially finding some more information about mating could be useful because that section only has one sentence. I added some internal links to other Wikipedia pages. The overview could have a couple more sentences about some of the interesting aspects of the butterfly, like its parasites and protective coloring. Well done!

message: The text in the "Caterpillar" section should add the following:
Mimicry is an additional defense mechanism.  The caterpillar develops a false head with eyes that give it the appearance of a snake climbing a branch.  Ref: http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/in134
I have photographs which I am willing to donate to wiki to illustrate the above point. http://www.wyllz.com/id680.htm  or  http://www.wyllz.com/id686.htm
Also, I think a picture of the chrysalis would be helpful as it illustrates the attempt at camoflague.  The chrysalis looks like a small branch of dead wood.  http://www.wyllz.com/id690.htm
