Talk:Mauro Piacenza

message: I changed the phrase about "minor Vatican tribunal" because it is technically incorrect and reflects bias. Although this is the way that most media are characterizing things, as a demotion, this was actually a promotion. While the new position is less important in the politics of the world it is very important in the day to day running of the Church. Was he given this promotion as a way of moving him away from his current position or making it available for a new appointee? Who knows. But to claim that we can read such things into the action is not appropriate for an encyclopedia. In all measurable ways, the man was promoted. He now has rights and privileges that he did not have before. When a priest hears a very serious sin in confession, he has to immediately report this to the Apostolic Penitentiary and wait for official word that the excommunication is lifted. While this is a small matter in worldly politics, it is very big deal in the Church.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 8.24.97.236 (talk) 03:34, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

message: Funnily enough, I was just rewriting the whole article because it had obviously been copy-pasted from Max Lilja's personal webpage, when someone tagged it as "autobiographical."

message: I removed the reference to Ammiee Allison being a conscientious objector since in the US this is a specific classification and not just reference to a general opposition to war or conflict.  According to the SSS's website, only people who have been judged fit for conscription into the US military are able to register as COs, and they can only register as a CO after they've been notified of their possible conscription.  Aimee Allison is a woman, and therefore is cannot be conscripted into the US armed forces.  According to current US law, she cannot be conscripted and therefore cannot be a conscientious objector.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.242.177.92 (talk) 03:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Frankly, I do not need wiki for the reasons you seem to suggest, but to pass on the information for those that might be getting ready to got to the expense and trouble to go look for it.  Also that region today is extremly dangerous, due to the activities of both the Sinaloa and Zeta drug Cartels. 
I suggest that you check on them and their present activities.
Side thingie, I also own la Escondida mine, considered as one of the richest Au, AG mines in Sonora, Mexico, so I am not promoting in any sense.
My reputation for my, as you said  -- amazing - great -- find, is already established.  For this, and for and other explorations in the Gobi, China, the Pacific basin, and a 'successful' 6 mo. exploration in the Yucatan looking for Mayan ruins, was the basis for my being duly 'Elected' into the Elite Explorers club, a very unique honor which must be earned.

message: CaptainEntropy wrote somewhere :<br
/>" Is this the same Randy Kerber who appeared with the Don Ellis Orchestra live at Montreux ? If so, he has two recordings with that band:
*Don Ellis Live at Montreux
*Music from Other Galaxies and_Planets
Kerber is listed under "personnel" in both articles, the link leads to the page you created.
" The whole Montreux concert has been posted to YouTube, including a performance of "Lyra" featuring Kerber on piano which did not get released on the original album, but was included in the CD reissue.
" In the concert video (recorded in 1978) he refers to Randy Kerber as being 18 years old, which does not quite jibe with the claim that he toured with Bette Midler in 1977 aged 19. Perhaps Don got it wrong, or perhaps RK lied about his age to go on tour. ;) I tried to find other info online to definitely establish the identity of the two Randy Kerbers but came up short; both are from the LA area originally and were born about the same time, classically trained, and great pianists. Seems too much to ask of coincidence."
:As you can see in the page history, i did not have much on him when i created the page. I see that i did put a date of birth, and a reference to the IMDB page of him. Returning to that web site, i see that his date of birth is there, which is probably where i picked it up. Since then, a user "Courtslusser" has made several edits here, with no other WP work before or since. Interestingly, Kerber's bio at IMDB reads the exact same than this WP article, and is credited to a "Randy Kerber". I cannot help but wonder if User:Courtslusser was Kerber himself. At any rate, i am puzzled at why user Courtslusser, whoever s/he is, removed my credit of Kerber as a studio musician for French singer Renaud in his mid-80s album Morgane de toi. A bad experience, a painful memory, or something to not brag about ? --Jerome Potts (talk) 17:35, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Mel Davis

message: Regarding edits like this: I don't mean to be stepping on your toes, but you have to understand that I have no way of knowing if you are really Mel Davis. I could not immediately verify the information about Melanie, Marisa, and Shana, so I decided to remove it. It may very well be true, but unless we have a published source to verify the information, we just can't include it.
You were absolutely correct to remove the paragraph about Muwuli and Hubert Davis, since it appears that they were the sons of a different Mel Davis. I didn't add that paragraph to the article -- someone else did -- but I apologize that I didn't catch the error sooner.
If you wish to propose changes to the article, you can discuss them with me here. If the information can be independently verified, then we can try to include it. Zagalejo^^^ 05:56, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Walter Simmons 

message: Previously, Resden's profile said "Although Horatio learns that Resden targeted his victims because his foster siblings allowed their foster father to brutally abuse him - his father would beat him with a belt and then lock him in a closet (His foster brother tried to stop his father once and he held his belt up and his foster brother choked him to death) - Caine tells Resden he has no sympathy at all for him." However, Resden's foster brother did not choke the foster father to death. He did choke him with a belt, but he did not kill the foster father. In "Skeletons", Frank Tripp says, in a conversation with Resden's foster brother, "You were arrested for choking your foster father Morris Yates? Report says you were using a belt." However, Frank does not say that the foster brother choked the foster father to death, only that he choked him. Not only that, but the foster father is seen alive, during the "present-day events" of the episode, when Resden has tracked him down to kill him. I don't know why this mistake hasn't been rectified any sooner. My guess is that whoever wrote Resden's profile in this article both assumed that Frank meant that the foster brother choked Yates to death, and completely forgot about Morris' appearence during the present-day events near the end of "Skeletons". Anyway, I've fixed that mistake.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.54.44.194 (talk) 09:26, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

message: Courtesy ping:  
I have changed Gargan's age at death to 62, which is the age stated in the text of the cited newspaper article and in the article's headline. The only basis that I see for age 61 is calculation from the listed date of birth, which is unsourced. Rather than dismissing The New York Times's obituary as being incorrect, shouldn't we consider the possibility that the listed date of birth is incorrect? If someone has a reliable source for July 17, 1902, that would provide reason to revisit the topic. Eddie Blick (talk) 00:54, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Byers (Canadian author)

message: I suggest we rename this article.
I find the current name confusing.
I added a couple of paragraphs to the article on the Canadian Coast Guard, that quoted "Michael Byers".
The wikilink to Michael Byers pointed to some other guy, an English professor.
It had a hat note about the "Canadian non-fiction author".  I assumed that there were three notable
Michael Byers, the American academic, the Canadian non-fiction author, and the Canadian academic.
I moved the American academic to Michael Byers (American academic), so Michael Byers could be the disambiguation
page.  It was only after I had started the disambiguation page that I realized that Michael Byers the non-fiction author
is the Canadian academic.
