Talk:Memorial (Nyman)

message: I removed the prob|data notification because I disagree that this song is not notable. Here is the reasons why this song is notable:
1- This composition is one of the most praised in the work of Michael Nyman (see www.allmusic.com). Apart from 'The Piano', Nyman is best known for his loud and wonderful piece 'Memorial'. Micheal Nyman is a chief figure of the minimalist music movement and considered a top 20th century artist by Rhapsody. The composition has been reprised on all "the very best" and other "essential music" CDs about Michael Nyman work.
2-This composition is one of the few cultural response to the wildly known Heysel Stadium massacre in Brussels. People who knows about this event, and who are told of a musical composition dedicated to it, will be able to turn to wikipedia to find about the name of the song. (see http://observer.guardian.co.uk/osm/story/0,,1448503,00.html)
3- This composition is part of critic Frank Oteri's list of the most important 100 classical compositions by living composers (see: http://www.newmusicbox.org/archive/century/century.pdf). Many compositions of this list are genuine entries in Wikipedia (eg. Suite_for_Microtonal_Piano).
4- This song has received several reviews by critics. It was described in the Guardian by Waldemar Januszczak as 'a small piece of atonement'. 
5- This song has played a crucial role in the creation of Peter Greenaway's movie  The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. It is perhaps the best example of the integration of Nyman's music to Greenaway's work. The final sequence was entirely choregraphed around the composition. The sequence represents a procession bearing the body of The Lover, prepared by The Cook, served by The Wife as a dish for her husband, The Thief

Talk:Hale White

message: "the three books edited by Reuben Shapcott" -
I am not an authority, but I have just read the Autobiography of Mark Rutherford, and it appears that the "editing" by "Reuben Shapcott" is Hale White's literary device, consistent with the presentation of the book as an "autobiography" of the semi-fictional Rutherford.
I would especially direct you to the "preface" to that book, supposedly written by "Shapcott"; it clearly seems to be written in White's ironic style, as a piece of unreliable narration.
This Hale White Wikipedia entry seems to imply that "Shapcott" is a real person, even supplying a dead link for a future Wikipedia entry for "Shapcott."

Category talk:Disused railway stations in London

message: Why are there two WP articles? One is a list of extant articles, hence incomplete as No Article = No Mention. The other is in tabular form with some individual entries 
linked, some with incomplete data. Is not any contrast between 'Closed' and 'Disused' extreme hairsplitting even by the standards of WP and Rail writers? Although geographical entities such as railway stations may slip round the no reference/no mention rule the listing of some station names seems to be the only web source that they ever existed.

Talk:Rosewater Uniting Church

message: I drove past the building yesterday in order to confirm its location in order to find it on Google Maps which shows it as being at 59 Grand Junction Rd Rosewater SA 5013.  However, the body of the article states that it is in Queenstown which is several kilometres to the west.  Also, the article does not discuss the history of the church or its building past its centenary in 1978 or the creation of the Uniting Church at about the same time.  The building is obviously not in use and in need of some repairs and it appears to be part of a used car yard.   Regards Cowdy001 (talk) 20:12, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Hans Klok

message: I think the article should mention Klok is gay and that (and why) he's pretending to be heterosexual. Generally speaking, there's no need for articles about people to go into this. However, Klok has intentionally, flat-out been lying about his sexual preference in interviews and such. In the Netherlands he has openly admitted to lying about his preference for commercial/contractual reasons, but on for example the Howard Stern interview with him and Pamela Anderson, he just lies, lies, lies. For 40 minutes, Stern asks about if they kissed or made out, why Anderson and Klok didn't have sex yet, and he just lies, on and on. "The rumors of his supposed romance with Anderson made headlines in his native country, where it is common knowledge that he is gay. Klok later admitted in a "QVegas Magazine" interview that the rumors were a publicity ploy and that he had been in a relationship with partner Frank for 16 years." --82.170.113.123 (talk) 03:42, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Is "Vernon" part of the surname or a given name? Danceswithzerglings (talk) 03:47, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: People weren't so precise back then. A lot of men's name included the surname of a female relative in their usual given name and were known by it - see for instance Andrew Bonar Law and Arthur Conan Doyle - whereas some used shortened forms - e.g. Lord Randolph Churchill (not "Lord Randolph Spencer Churchill"). There weren't so many rigid pro forma back then and English law allows people to use whatever name they like so long as it's not for fraudulent purposes without having to register changes. Hence often it's unclear where the forenames stop and the surnames start. Timrollpickering (talk) 20:53, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Music in the Elizabethan era

message: The contents of this article are so mis-leading, and many points are just plainly wrong, that rather than correct this, it would be better to delete it altogether.  It is not a substantial article, so I do not see any benefit in necessarily creating a replacement at the present time.  Most of the material (in reliable articles) can be found elsewhere in Wikipedia.  e.g. Information on instruments can be found in links from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_period_instruments.  In addition, it is clear that many of the mis-conceptions in this article are the result of referring to unsuitable source material, which are found in the links from this article.  No major works on Elizabethan music or instruments have been referred to in the links.  The Haynes-Hart website is woefully in error.
