Talk:Adolf Bastian

message: Almost a B class article, great start. Needs a little more structure (move most info from opening paragraph into other sections), and add an infobox and it would be a B class. Then use footnotes to tie sources to info and expand to improve more. Aboutmovies 21:56, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Gretna, Manitoba

message: The former Town of Gretna's website "http://i51530.wixsite.com/townofgretna/ourstory", linked in the article itself, appears to be the source of much of this article's text, with only a very light editing pass to make it appear to not be a direct copy.  While the town government no longer exists (having being subsumed into the Rural Municipality of Rhineland), and the referenced website does not explicitly claim copyright or declare a copyright date, neither of those facts remove the presumption of copyright upon publication in Canada, and does not put it into the public domain.  Unlike in the US, government publications are not automatically public-domain.
I believe much of this article needs to be rewritten.
(If this article is, instead, the source of the website's text, then that would seem to be equally problematic, although in that case, I think for being primary-sourced.)

message: The charge of the edit warring IP is that Wikipedia spilled the beans about a fact... that is publicly known since 1931 from the work published by Abd-ru-shin himself. Isn't that silly? See Wikipedia:An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing. Jiddu Krishnamurti and Haile Selassie have publicly denied that they were the Messiah. Abd-ru-shin has never done that, he has never retracted his claim of being the Son of Man, who brings to Word of God before the Final Judgment. He deleted it from his book, but that is not the same as a retraction: he has never apologized for calling himself the Son of Man, who restores WP:THETRUTH after the failed mission of Jesus Christ. In his opinion, the Word of God is Abd-ru-shin's own book, the Bible being thoroughly antiquated. Tgeorgescu (talk) 09:48, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Clouds 

message: Abrasion occurs as a result of two surfaces rubbing against each other, resulting in the wearing down of one or both of the surfaces. However, attrition refers to the breaking off of particles (erosion) which occurs as a result of objects hitting against each other. Abrasion leads to surface-level destruction over a period of time, whereas attrition results in more change at a faster rate. 
(From that) I can’t tell the difference.
The way I read the article is:
:Abrasion is from rubbing. Attrition is from hitting.
:Both involve the breaking off of (small) particles.
:Abrasion is occasional rubs between similarly sized rocks. Attrition is constant bombardment by small particles. 
The AI chatbot answer is;
:Abrasion: wearing down by the collision of particles carried by water, wind, or ice: ("scratched" or "scraped").
:Attrition: the particles themselves are worn down through repeated collisions with each other or with other surfaces: (constant bumps).

Talk:Free French Naval Forces

message: "Soon after the fall of France, Free France was but a government in exile"
This is not correct.   It wasn't a Government-in-exile.  If the defeated government had left the country,  and claimed to continue in operation in exile,   then it would have been a Goverment-in-exile.   Like for example,  the Dutch government.   In the case of France,  there was the Vichy government.  Free French were rival/alternative pretended government.  Government-in-exile is not the right terminology.   Someone should know the correct terminology.Eregli bob (talk) 13:12, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

message: Currently reads:
"The FNFL also harboured technical innovators, like Captain Jacques-Yves Cousteau, who invented the modern aqua-lung, and Yves Rocard, who helped perfect radar. The aqua-lung became a major improvement for commando operations. (Note - Jacques Cousteau joined the FNFL after the liberation of France. He spent the entirety of the war in France. He developed the aqua-lung in Paris during the German occupation.)"

*F-2000
*shooting with pistols (if i remember right there was one chempion during early soviet times)
*chess - Mr. Tals
*biathlon - Bricis, Piksons
*Strongman competitions - Bergmanis
*weight lifting - Scerbatiks (Ščerbatiks) (He's a politician now, by the way :) )
*Tennis recently - 2 new talents - Gulbis and Lejnieks
*judo - Zelonijs
*voleyball
*handball
bobsleigh, biathlon, tennis and weight lifting definetly should be added, as well as motosports
btw, before Bergmanis started to participate in Strongman competition also he was weightlifter...
I don't think that judo should be added, because only achievement of Zelonijs is Bronze in Sydney. That's all! Should we add all sports in who Latvians have won at least one medal in Olympics? Same for shooting - only one athlete (Afanasijs Kuzmins) which has won several medals in Olympics. Is he able to make his sport as one of the top in Latvia? 
About tennis - are you sure Lejnieks is a big talent? He hasn't showed anything until now, I'd rather put Andis Juška, even he isn't called a young talent anymore. Also you shouldn't forget about Larisa Neiland. Gragox 07:55, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I would like now to relaunch Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Phi Kappa Psi, which was previously launched by Samwisep86 but rejected as premature and as having a concern outside of the Mediation Committee's scope.
Invocation of the MedCab has decisively failed, so turning to the Committee should no longer be regarded as premature.  And the matter outside of scope is recognized as such.  Further, Samwisep86 has withdrawn from the dispute, though I would not object to his becoming a party to the mediation or to his providing third-party commentary.
I believe that Samwisep86's original statement of the issue to be mediated was appropriate.
I fear to edit the page as it now stands in an attempt to resubmit the request, as I don't know what I might inadvertently screw-up. (The guidelines seem to presume a fresh start.) —SlamDiego 05:31, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
