Talk:Mazes and Monsters

message: What can be done about the term used "RPG" it seems like an poor grammer, should this be updated to Role-player, or Fantasy player? --Warwon
:I'm not sure which instance of the use of the term you are referring to.  I fixed one use that seemed awkward, but the remaining uses look and sound fine to me. — Frecklefoot | Talk 17:57, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: RPG

message: There is actually a roleplaying game called Monsters & Mazes at    http://www.hoboes.com/pub/Role-Playing/Fantasy/Monsters%20and%20Mazes   This link probably dosen't work. ----MaxW
:Not even remotely close. There have been a few tries to guess out what the Mazes & Monsters game rules were. But too little is known to really say. Some think it closer to Tunnels & Trolls than D&D. But no one has ti my knowledge actually made the movie into a game. Closest anology now would be LARPs and the GenCon event called True Dungeon, amongst others.

message: There was another movie made for TV about D&D players that went crazy. Does anyone remember it's name?--BenWoodruff (talk) 15:50, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Made for TV Movies

message: The implication of these plot elements is in the actual script/dialog of the movie: 
#As for Robbie being in "regular counseling" there is a comment near the end where Kate says "... but his mother says he needs to keep seeing that doctor." That is not implied, it is explicit.
#The very last line of the movie is a narrative voice-over by Kate looking back on what happened that day... "And so, we played the game again for one last time. It didn't matter that there were no maps or dice, or no monsters. Pardue saw the monsters, we did not. We saw nothing but the death of hope and the loss of our friend. And so we played the game until the sun began to set and all the monsters were dead." The phrase "death of hope" seems an extremely strong implication that Robbie would never recover. 66.97.209.215 (talk) 19:03, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Talk:The Beatles with Tony Sheridan and Their Guests

message: sorry, but a German word sounding similar to "peedles" and beeing rude does not exist; even not in different spellings (like >>piedels<< or >>pihdels<<). This argument is not trustworthy or substantive. (94.220.197.108 (talk) 17:24, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I second that. What unsubstantial (sic) contrived nonsense.  "Piddle" would be about the closest match that comes to mind, and that's not German. -- Kku 16:40, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Third. This is common lore among Beatlemania, but nobody's ever provided evidence to back it up. (Also common: that "walrus" is Greek for "corpse," despite there not being a Greek word for "corpse." but that's neither here nor there. Nor everywhere.) "The Beat Brothers" was a catch-all name for *whatever backup band* Tony Sheridan happened to have with him at the time...gee, much like how "Plastic Ono Band" was whoever happened to be backing up John and/or Yoko. :) 208.7.62.77 (talk) 19:49, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It wouldn't surprise me if this was another Beatle myth but remember this was a slang term in use circa 1960 so it may not be familiar today or easy to document. One interesting note: John Lennon used the term in the Beatles' second Christmas record (1964). Piriczki (talk) 13:08, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Rose Edith Kelly

message: I'm opening discussion here just to make a few notes about problems I see in this article.  These are not meant as slams at the original author, or any subsequent editor(s), but more as a "To Do" list of improvements to be made.  I strongly encourage others to add to this list.  I will attempt to work my way through these items, but assistance from others will be very much appreciated.
*Flesh out and rewrite Introduction.  In particular...
**Give her date of death as well as her date of birth.
**Create a general summary of Kelly's life and why the reader should care about her.  
***Include at least some mention of her association with Aleister Crowley.
***Include a sentence or two about her life apart from Crowley - her career, any accomplishments, etc.
**Move the material currently in the intro (aside from place and date of birth) to later sections.  It is too minor to be useful here.
*Write the section "Life With Aleister Crowley."  The section should open with some basic information on how and when they met, who Crowley was (just enough to show why the reader should care about him), and when they married.
*Add more information.  Create new sections as needed.
**Information on the children she had with Crowley.  I'm not sure, but I believe that they went to Cairo just after the death of their first child.  I will have to check to be sure.
**Discussion of her alcoholism, her divorce from Crowley, and her death.
**Other information as we think of it.  My point here is that Rose did a lot more than just act as Crowley's medium before the discovery of Liber AL.  She should be credited as a whole person here.

message: if these two were of Kiev, which is today Ukrainian, what is the reason for prioritizing the Russian spelling of their names?  --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 01:52, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: WP:COMMONNAME. A quick Google search or search through books for each spelling shows the Russian one is currently prevalent in English. Personally I’d prefer their original Old East Slavic names to either one, but for obvious reasons the English Wikipedia must cater primarily to English speakers. —Vorziblix (talk) 01:26, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Fermat (computer algebra system)

message: Currently user:Gesslein appears to be the major contributor to this article. The original author, user:Rhlewis, has declared his interest in the app, but the nearest I find to a biased edit in the last four years is "This is the first time in five years that the Windows version is as good as the Mac version."  (Which also gives the lie to the charge of advertising. No MadAve office for you, Rhlewis.) Given the open declaration and the absence of biased editing, it's misleading and absurd to warn at the top of the article that a WP:COI has been "discovered". Yappy2bhere (talk) 22:57, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The article asserts that the main author of the software is Robert H. Lewis. Is it a lie? Can you seriously pretend that creating a WP article for the software one has written is not WP:COI nor WP:advert and that this does not break WP policies? Moreover accusing another editor of a lie is a WP:personal attack that, if repeated, may conduct to a block. D.Lazard (talk) 23:22, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: User:Gesslein has been recently developing the article, not User:Rhlewis. We don't delete articles simply because the creator of their lemma has popped by. As I've stated before, the software is the subject of peer-reviewed articles in learned journals, and my understanding of our guidelines suggests that this makes the software notable. Your attempt to drag this issue into wikilawyering territory suggests that you have some personal gripe with the subject, which would constitute a COI on your part. If that is the case, I think you know what the commonly given suggestion would be. Samsara (FA • FP) 23:44, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

message: At the moment the article seems to assume all gay parenting is through adoption. Of course, many LGBT have biological children, and many of the historical legal challenges have arisen over this rather than adoption.
This page could benefit from major expansion.
In fact, the article Adoption by same-sex couples is far more complete on the question of adoption. If this page is not to just be merged with that one, it needs to take a much broader view.

thread_title:  merger 

message: In general, this article is unsourced and suspect, but some statements regarding independent cities stand out as dubious:
*Like consolidated city-counties, single-tiers retain certain county functions that independent cities do not.... Name some county functions that independent cities do not have.
*A city that is not part of any county is not a metropolitan municipality but an independent city. By definition, a metropolitan municipality must be a non-sovereign entity which is simultaneously a municipal corporation and and an administrative division of the larger sovereign entity in which it is located. For this to make sense, we need both (1) a citation for that definition and (2) a showing that independent cities are not administrative divisions of the larger sovereign entity in which they are located (something that every independent city in which I've lived is).

message: I am going to tag this article as needing to be rewritten.  Besides the lack of references and the accuracy dispute, neither of which has been addressed since December 2006, this article, apart from the South African section, seems to have very little to do with the ways in which the term is actually used and much to do with various editors' unsupported speculation on ways in which the term could be used.  Also, the organization is terrible; the information on various countries should be separated rather than interleaved.  Finally, various editors seem to think that United States and Canada use the same terminology when they do not; since when does the U.S. have jurisdictions officially known as regional municipalities?
