Talk:Ribhus

message: It would be very kind if anybody could insert the sanskrit name of the ribhus for I can't write sanskrit. I think then the stub-marking of this article could be removed.--87.152.248.251 (talk) 20:29, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Can anybody please add the sanskrit name of the ribhus 

message: The Ribhus in the Rigveda (the hymns of which mostly refer to constellations and times long before the assumed dates of their composition) represent the constellation Triangulum.
Some other examples are Indra = the constellation Hercules, Agni = the constellation Aries, Mitra = the constellation Delphinus, Varuna = the constellation Aquarius and so on. Besides the Brahmanas this clearly shows that the hymns in later times were used by the Brahmins for purposes, different from the original ones. 2003:F5:F710:CB00:103C:5F3C:619E:7160 (talk) 17:21, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Hasmonean High School

Talk:Mudsill theory

message: The article states "An obvious flaw lies in that there are no indications as to which class or race rightfully belongs to the mudsill other than the pre-supposed regional groups that were already in place at the "bottom", causing a circular argument." But this is incorrect. The pattern of the argument actually goes like this: first, prove that there must be such a class (an Existence proof); then, use observation of the present to determine what that class is. The second step merely clarifies the first. (Of course, the first step is actually defective.) The defective first step does partly rest on (claimed) observation - but not on observation of the southern states, observation of other, earlier times and places. It's defective, but it isn't circular. 203.221.31.19 08:51, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Chamunda

message: "Around 400 years ago the king and a Brahmin priest prayed to Devi for permission to move the temple to some easily accessible location. Devi appeared to the priest in a dream giving her consent. She directed him to dig in a certain spot and an ancient idol would be found and that idol should be installed in the temple and worshipped as Her form. 
The king sent out men to bring the idol. Although they were able to locate it but were not able to lift it. Again Devi appeared to the priest in a dream. She explained that the men could not lift the holy relic because they considered it an ordinary stone. She instructed him to get up early in the morning, take a bath, wear fresh clothes and go to the place in a respectful manner. He did as he was told and found that he could easily lift what a large group of men could not. He told the people that it was the power of the Goddess that brought the idol to the temple."--Redtigerxyz (talk) 10:47, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed [[WP:UNDUE]] to Kangra temple. 

message: You've been waiting a long time for a review. I've fixed a few typos. Some sentences don't make sense, though:
* "The text further says that Chamunda does a dance of destruction, playing a musical instrument who shaft of Mount Meru, the spring the cosmic snake Shesha and gourd is the crescent moon. She plays the instrument during the deluge that drowns the world." - makes no sense to me
* "Further, sage Mandavya is described as worshipping the Māṭrpaňcaka (the five mothers), Chamunda being one of them, who have been established by Brahma; for saving king Harishchandra from calamities." - unclear what part after semicolon refers to
* "Some Jain scriptures warn of dire consequences of Chamunda by the Hindu rites and rituals." - unclear
The structure seems a little confusing to me. Would it make more sense to combine the Jain legends with the earlier Legend section? And maybe put that after the Origins section? The other concern I have is broadness. There is enough discussion of the legends. What other effects has Chamunda had on culture? Are there any other temples for instance?

Talk:Ture Nerman

message: This is a great article: I'd love to read some of his poetry. Is it worth making the point that, as in Britain, alcoholism was a central issue for the labour movement at that time. Workers were partly paid in drink, and alchoholism was seen as key tool of the capitalist class. I think readers outside Northern Europe might not understand that this opposition to alcoholism wasn’t a marginal eccentricist, but a touh-stone for class politics.
Did they “agitate for a similar Communist revolution in Sweden”, for a workers’ revolution? There’s a nuance: soviet power or party power?
The Czechoslovakian front? Can this correct? The Red Army fought only insider the territory of the former Empire, sureley? Did Czechosolovkia even exit?
Spain: the fighting is a little more complex than you suggest. The republican forces were both united and divided at different times. --Duncan 11:26, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Chauri Chaura

message: I saw the 1982 Gandhi film and decided to look up the police station fire depicted in the film. It led me to this article and I was appalled at how poorly it was put together so I took it upon myself to clean it up. Some of it seemed to be text pastes from other websites and I'm pretty sure it was put together by someone who didn't speak English as their first language. Once I was finished I was going to tag it as not having cited references but I think the Wikipediabot beat me to it. I cleaned it up a lot grammatically but there is still room for improvement on the phrasing and grammar. I also found some inconsistencies that I did my best to reconcile with the limited time I had to work with. Still, It all needs to be fact checked, especially the Trial and Convictions section and it needs extensive work in source citations.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Benny Volution (talk • contribs) 04:57, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: Should there be mention in the article about how the storyline of SW:FC completely violates the canon origin of the Imperial Stormtroopers that was later revealed in Episode II?
I'd add it myself, but I don't know enough about this game (only played it about three seconds before giving up) to be able to speak definitively.  All I remember was the main character was a rebel Stormtrooper who didn't fit in with the others in his unit.
The Jango clone origin shoots that all to hell.  I think it may be a small part of the reason (along with it being unplayably bad) this game is on the "all time worst" lists.  It's akin to a SW game where Obi-Wan is Luke's father.
-KyuzoGator
I think your overlooking something. Although the original stormtroopers were clones it is stated in some Star Wars books that later on, the empire used a combination of clones, and of recruiting.
* Indeed it has been established that the practice of cloning stormtroopers dwindles down to almost none by the time of the original trilogy.  Which makes it possible for the clones encountered in Timothy Zahn's book "Dark Force Rising" to be a special case, never before experienced by the likes of Luke and Han who both stripped stormtroopers of their armor for use as disguises as early as ANH.

replies: text: Even if the films were silent, they'd most likely contain title cards that were (originally) in Korean, which would IMO qualify them. IMDB lists at least the ones I checked as Korean language films so we might just go by that. Actually verifying if the films do (or did) contain title cards might be pretty hard or impossible since I'm assuming at least some of the films are lost for good. - Bobet 21:53, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Ramallo massacre

message: *original text:
Mainstream media mainly treated this as another hostage situation, but this crime was very uncommon. It is very unusual for a special unit of the police to deliberately shoot a car with hostages inside (videos of the event show bullets coming from every direction), let alone killing all of them. Non-mainstream media experts claim that in this particular office the bank stored documents relating to then president Carlos Menem, specifically to his son's helicopter accident, and this was the reason for the police killing every possible witness.
Carlos Menem's son, Carlos Jr., died in a strange helicopter accident in March 1995. The chopper was found on a open field, burnt. The justice resolved it was an accident, but the bullet holes in the helicopter were never explained (neither shown by mainstream media). Experts say it was a job of the organized crime, particularly a Middle Eastern mafia, which was allegedly linked to Menem's reelection campaign for, coincidentally, 1995.
