thread_title: Image Needed

message: According to Martin Dyckman (in his book, "Reubin O'D. Askew and the Golden Age of Florida Politics") attributing this to Harvard and/or the JFK School of Government is incorrect. The source is a paper by George Weeks, who "conducted his study while he was a graduate student at Harvard University, which gave rise to a persistent misperception that the university itself had certified Askew's stature."

message: I've split the article into two:  Empire of the Sun for the novel and Empire of the Sun (film) for the film.  The reason I felt a split was necessary because the novel and sun are more important in their own separate rights, and the article was quite confusing with both a film and novel infobox, two different summaries, etc.  The movie article needs quite a lot of work, though, so if you feel you can help, lend a hand!

Talk:Blub

message: The "Blub emotions" section talks about "fins up", etc. Does that mean Blub is supposed to be a fish? If so, I can assure all of you Blub experts out there that some of us find this highly non-obvious. A note about what the characters are supposed to represent would be appropriate at the beginning of the article. — Nowhither 23:11, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fish? 

message: To get a rough idea about what the word actually refers to in German: I think it originates in the verb "blubbern" which means "to bubble". Blub could be the "sound" of a sinking ship (like you say "blub blub blub") or of anything related to water and bubbles. Also you say fishes do "blub" when they let out bubbles of air although they don't make any sounds of course. So in general it's partly a onomatopoeic word often used without any sense (you could say "blub" if you are bored).
And yes, the Blub Club refered to in google has nothing to do with the one described in the article, I think they just called the first one like this because they thought it's a nice pun. There also seem to be a hotel and a 'swimmming paradise' called after it.

:A scandal hit the fetish when beloved character Goddesses' Fruitboy was exposed as an active hater of the same fruit he would pretend to worship on video.

When the story broke fruit fetishists felt betrayed when Fruitboy was quoted saying "Give me some broccoli or asparagas and I am in heaven.  Apples are for old, balding losers."

Talk:List of grand dukes of Russia

message: This article mentions that Alexei Nikolaevitch succeeded briefly and only titularly as Emperor Alexei II in 1917, but I don't think this is correct. Nicholas' final document of abdication, however illegal it was to abdicate for his son, was his word, as Emperor. I am going to delete this unless someone has some proof of this. If Alexei ruled as titular emperor, then there is no way that Grand Duke Michael could have done the same. If Nicholas' first abdication paper was accepted as legal, then Alexei would have been Tsar, and Michael would not be listed as being titular emperor. Morhange 01:40, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

message: While the term p-patch originated in Seattle, it has spread beyond Seattle. Not sure how many communities around here have one, but Everett, about 20 miles north of Seattle, has a community p-patch . A quick search via Google also turned up a reference to a Bremerton (on the Olympic Peninsula) p-patch . Might it be more accurate to say the Puget Sound area or even just Seattle Metro area? --H-ko (Talk) 06:24, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not only Seattle 

message: The term pea patch is definitely not unique to and did not originate in Seattle. To say that is has spread from there is a bit self righteous it seems. The abbreviated hyphenated p-patch probably is local to Seattle. Take a look around the web and you will see the term pea patch used copiously to describe a community garden. The pea patch term originated from Pea Patch Island in the 1700s, clearly pre-dating Seattle and it's use of the term.
Here are several cities in the Seattle area using the original term pea patch as well as a couple of other references.

*** I disagree, for a large class of redirects where there target is not closely related to the redirect. Better to have a red link which someone might write an article for, than a redirect to something only vaguely related, as here. In this particular case, an article mentioning that, among other things, Itrw is ancient Egpytian for a term meaning "river journey", which meant a specific trip to the Egyptians, is really called for.

Talk:Drawn thread work

message: This is an English-language encyclopedia, not an essay on correct transliteration from Slavic languages.  
I do understand the desire to put some cultural and historical context around crafts articles - I do it myself.  However, ff the DMC "Encyclopedia of Needlework" uses the spelling "myreshcka" then that is "a" (if not "the") correct spelling in British English.  This section contains much that is personal POV and is "lecturing" the reader rather than informing the reader of the common usage of the terms in English.  Also, the pronunciation should be given in IPA per Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_%28pronunciation%29.

message: Wikipedia's guidance on judging an article's Lead section involves satisfying three types of readers: gaining informational value through one sentence, one paragraph or the entire Lead section. The Lead section jumps back and forth between the process of drawn thread work, how it fits into some subcategories of embroidery and what it was used for. The sentences are concise but not organized in a way to satisfy readers who only read the first sentence. This Lead section does not include a brief description of the article's major sections and lacks a holistic structure that a one paragraph or entire Lead section reader would benefit from.
