Talk:Black May (1943)

message: Despite the title, the article seemed a bit thin on why it was so bad for the U-boat arm; so I've added a bit on that. 
I've also changed the "German Response" part a bit to make it flow better; I've changed "Flak boats" to a tactical change, as that seems to make more sense.
Hope thats OK with everyone. Xyl 54 09:04, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Template talk:Mitsubishi Motors timeline (North America) 1980 to date

message: Some things that are wrong with this template...
Information
* According to this the Galant has been sold since 1980 (model year? 1979 calendar year?). MMC entered the U.S. market under its own name in 1982, and then only with the Tredia, Cordia and Starion.
* The Galant was a compact car until 1996.
* The Mirage, at least at first, was a subcompact car, not a compact.
* Where's the Tredia?
* Where's the Expo LRV? It was based on a different model to the Expo (see Mitsubishi Chariot and Mitsubishi RVR).
* You should be referring to both the Endeavor and Outlander as XUVs and differentiating by size/class. Calling the Outlander a compact SUV suggests its a small, old fashioned off-roader with a ladder chassis.
* The recently superseded Lancer was not unavailable for a year before the new generation was launched.
Code
* The four major columns combine to a total of 110% in the template code.
* The width of the years columns are all screwed up.
* I can't tell if this is supposed to be 40 columns (see overall heading) or 32 columns (see Type and decades) wide.
The only page it's transcluded to at present is the (global market) Mitsubishi Lancer, which is a ridiculous article to attach it to (see User talk:Bull-Doser). Since this is clearly still a "work-in-progress", I'm going to remove it for now until the above issues are sorted. --DeLarge 00:20, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Table

message: There's conflicting info on the Fever Records site.
An article about Sal Abbatiello, I think sourced from Dance Music Authority magazine, says
:“We’re opening up for New Kids on the Block,” Abbatiello recalls, “and we’re ready to blow up. ‘We Can’t Go Wrong’ comes out. It’s number five on the pop charts and everything was going great. Right in the middle of the tour Angel thought it was her chance to get out of the group and go solo, and she walks out on us.” After missing several tour dates, Angel returned to the group, but the damage had already been done. The Cover Girls were dropped from Capitol Records and Angel left the group to pursue her solo career. “Like I said, I always have the foresight,” states Abbatiello. “I knew things were changing and I said, ‘We have to change the sound.’” Michelle Valentine was brought in to replace Angel as the lead singer, and with the new Cover Girls lineup in place, and two introductory singles “Don’t Stop Now,” and its huge radio-hit B-side “Funk Boutique,” their cover of “Wishing On A Star” flew up the charts to number two. True to the record industry handbook, Michelle Valentine soon wanted out of the group to pursue a solo career and once again, the Cover Girls lost their deal with Epic Records.
Meanwhile, the Cover Girls bio page doesn't mention Valentine at all. It just says
:Evelyn Escalera entered the group in 1990, as the new lead singer. She finished touring with the group for the “We Can't Go Wrong” album tour and in 1991, when the Cover Girls released their next new single, “Funk Boutique,” it was Evelyn's first recording as the new lead singer.
So who sang on "Funk Boutique"? Michelle Valentine or Evelyn Escalera? —mjb (talk) 05:12, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Chabad messianism

message: * Its time to reorganize article and mostly refer to the 1990s onward messianism and reception in Jewish community. Evaluation of the messianist claim and historic precedents in Chabad should be placed at the end of the article and kept to an appropriate size
* Replace all POV sources with neutral sources (e.g. publications by messianic Chabad individuals).
* David Berger's book is treated as multiple sources, instead add the {rp|#} template to indicate page numbers.
* Given the nature of Berger's POV relationship with Chabad (advocating for a Ban from modern Orthodox rabbis) the article should rely on the availabile academic sources on the topic.
* Some content appears dated. Messianism in Chabad today may not be the same as it was 10 years ago, sources from recent years should take precedence in shaping the topic page. I.am.a.qwerty (talk) 09:01, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

message: I don't understand why these two sources "failed verification". I could verify them.

"Twenty-six years after his death...the Rebbe's beat goes on". The Jerusalem Post. June 18, 2020.
They're WP:RS, they're related to the subject, and the Newfield article is an academic article and personal opinion heavily sourced to its own WP:RSs. They're both recent enough that they're not outdated. The Jerusalem post article says that the Messianic movement is on the "fringes."

Talk:Global citizens movement

message: This is a very weird article. I've been involved with global causes for a number of years, and never heard the topic of this article described as a proper noun (capitalized) or by abbreviations. The language, grammar and concepts used in this article is confusing and inaccurate. From my own experiences, the topic is discussed in ways used more often by those idealists who are outside any real spheres of influence. This may be presumptuous about the author's intent or experience, but nonetheless, this article needs a serious re-write to reflect Wikipedian standards and broadly shared view of the topic. Tfleming 00:45, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: <<This is a very weird article>>
How do you mean weird?  The article seems to take the direction of my most important clients.  Microsoft says it this way:  "As a successful global corporation, we have a responsibility to use our resources and influence to make a positive impact on the world and its people. At Microsoft, our passion to do well is matched by our desire to do good. We believe the best way to achieve those parallel goals is to align our business and global citizenship strategies. To achieve that goal, we consulted with our employees, and with people in government and industry from many parts of the world, because we wanted to create a citizenship framework that would both reflect and enhance the other aspects of our business."  So it would seem that the Global citizens movement consists at least of the following:
* Responsibility to use our resources . . .
* Making a positive impact on the world and its people . . .
* Desire to do good . . .
* Create a citizenship framework . . .
* Reflect and enhance the other aspects of our business . . .
The assertions in the article seem to be accurate on what is happening, though you may want to sprinkle in other citations to the published experts that you can find on Amazon.com by searching on global citizens movement.  --Rednblu 21:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Maguire Seven

message: There's a sentence that is very confusing to me:
:In 2005, Tony Blair issued an apology for the miscarriage, on television, after the Speaker of the House Michael Martin refused to allow the Prime Minister to use his weekly Question Time to make the speech from the Dispatch Box.
I'm lost.  What's the connection between the the start of this sentence and the bit that starts "after the Speaker..."?  What's the Dispatch Box?  Is that in the UK parliament?  The way the sentence is written, it says that Blair's reason for making the statement was the he was disallowed from doing so from the Dispatch Box (so he did it out of spite for the Speaker of the House) - of course that's absurd, but that's what the statement says.  Can someone clarify it and rewrite it, keeping in mind that Wikipedia is written for a Global audience (so calling Blair "Tony Blair" in the first half and "the Prime Minister" in the second half is confusing because some people don't know that he's the UK Prime Minister - most or all will know that he's the UK head of state or head of government or something like that, but not everyone will be certain that his title is "Prime Minister").
