message: No sources are cited for any of this information.
A cursory Googling of "clanging psychology", "clanging psychiatry", "clang pscychology" and "clang psychiatry" doesn't result in anything to boost confidence. Or even to lend credence.
So, is this a real, recognized pathological behavior, or is there another explanation for this entry?

message: Hi all,
there seems to be varying viewpoints on the year of Maxentius' birth. The only reliable source I seem to find is the book "tyranny and transformation" from the year 2000 by Eric Varner: which lists Maxentius as being born roughly from 276 to 283 (I would opt for the earlier end of the range as his son was born in 295, and its unlikely a 12-14 year old Maxentius would be even able to father a child). Can anyone find more specific dates/citations as to his birth year? Thank you  — Preceding unsigned comment added by PrinceofFrancia (talk • contribs) 15:33, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

message: The record listed in the article seems dubious, as it links to an Michigan Technological University site saying the snowball was over 20 feet, yet actual video footage from around the same time, posted on the same parent site, shows it just over 6 feet, and calls that the "world record."

replies: text: I went ahead and removed the content, which is here, should anyone find a reliable source for the snowball purported to be taller than a house.

Talk:Memoni language

message: Memons speak a non-written dialect is called Memoni, a mixture of Sindhi and Kutchi which belong to an Indo-Iranian (North-Western Zone) family of languages.  As the Sindhi or Kutchi languages are spoken by both the Muslims and Non-Muslims but Memoni dialect is exclusively to Memons more specifically the Kathiawadi Memons who are Sunni Muslims and who migrated to neighbouring regions Kutch, and Kathiawar, districts of Gujarat state in India, around 15th Century AD.   The Memoni in sound such as stress and intonation and  basic everyday speach is very much like that of Sindhi, but it borrowes extensively words from Gujarati, Hindustani and English languages. Like most languages of sub-continent the sentence structure and pattern of Memoni generally follows  subject -> object ->  verb  order.  Refer to Memoni --Siddique Katiya 11:08, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, Heracles was wearing the Nemean Lion skin from his first labor, making him invulnerable. Aello could not kill Heracles; thus, she was killed instead. Her name meant, "Whirlwind".

If it needs to be redirected to that Duke (satisfying primary usage as per WP:MOSDAB), there needs to be a rethink on the methodology.

thread_title:  Undid redirect 

message: It seems to me that the fact that the letter patent was misspelled should not force us to follow that misspelling over a cliff.  There is no such place as "Newcastle under Lyne."  As far as I know, the dukes themselves always called themselves dukes of "Newcastle under Lyme".  The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography uses "Lyme", as does Britannica.  I don't know what the peerage guides do or did, but even if they do use "Newcastle under Lyne" it seems perverse to me to blindly follow them, especially when other works of general reference do not.  The appropriate thing to do, I think, is to indicate that the letter patent misspelled Lyme as "Lyne," and otherwise ignore said misspelling and use "Lyme". john k (talk) 01:17, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: As I argued some time ago, I think we should call them simply the "Dukes of Newcastle", and relegate both "Lyne" and "Lyme" to the text of this article as part of the full, but nearly always unused, name of the peerage.

Category talk:Board games

message: I created the Careers (board game) article as a stub, hoping to fill it in later.  I was looking for the template for a board game stub when I discovered that there are some other stub articles that don't have the tag.  I eventually found the stub template and also found a link to the Board Game Geek entry for that same article.  I figured that since I was going to check each and every board game article for "stubness" (and add the appropriate template) that I should do the same for the BGG entries.
Well, what I did was interpreted as vandalism.  Once the person who spotted it explained his reasoning, I understood.  That's why I'm starting a discussion here about BGG specifically, and external links in general.
What criteria should be used as to whether or not a Board Game Geek entry be added to a board game article?  Should it be added to every article (as I did)?  Should we be more selective and only add those that have more information than the Wikipedia article itself?  What do we do so that we know if the BGG entry gets expanded past the tipping point?  Are there some more questions that we should ask?
Let's discuss.  Val42 18:54, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: As I now understand the site, I have no problem with links to it being added. That said, I feel that they are innapropriate whenever there is less information on BGG than on Wikipedia. Obviously this is a dyanmic stipulation, as both BGG and WP change regularly, and isn't the best thing to base policy on. NOTE: That's policy with a small P not WP:POLICY. It's too bad we can't add the BGG pages to a watchlist to track them. The advertising is a nuisance but it does seem to be a great resource. Somehow I feel less uncomfortable with it being in a references section than in an external links section. It seems less like promotion to me. That said, I will probablmovey go to BGG the next time I need quick info on a game. Anyway, that's what I think. WAvegetarian (talk)  (email)   (contribs) 21:46, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Free Running (video game)

message: I removed text as follows:
Free Running is a relatively new urban sport. It is completely unique combining many elements of gymnastics, cross country running and variations on the long jump or high jump. 
Free running in it's most basic form is the idea of running round an urban area, jumping or climbing on objects or building and doing seemingly impossible or dangerous stunts. The sport was recently made famous by a Channel 4 documentary 'Jump Britain'. The sport was also featured in a long running BBC advert for radio 2 .
Free Runnig has no rules as such but requires extreme physical strength and endurance as well as agility nad flexibility. free Runnig is endorsed by many athletes who sometimes use it as part of their training sessions.
