Talk:KISS-FM

message: WP:WPRS says it best:  You may add properly sourced, encyclopedic content describing a station's programming, but a simple list of a station's on-air staff should not be added. To a reader who isn't already familiar with the station, a plain airstaff list doesn't do anything to help them understand or get a feel for the topic. Describing a station's programming (see CFNY-FM, for example) gives the reader a much better sense of the station, its personalities and its on-air style than a meaningless list of people they've never heard of.

Talk:J. Don Boney

message: RJN, Do you have a source showing that the UHD ref. is wrong saying he was chancellor at UHD? Or shall we just take your word for it? --Evb-wiki 04:25, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: See http://www.uh.edu/newsroom/announcement/chancellors.html and http://www.uh.edu/newsroom/announcement/mchancellors.html
That is a list of all chancellors of the University of Houston System ever since its creation in 1977.
The University of Houston System ("UH System") oversees the following four separate institutions (universities):
* University of Houston ("UH")
* University of Houston–Clear Lake ("UHCL")
* University of Houston–Downtown ("UHD")
* University of Houston–Victoria ("UHV")
The University of Houston System has one chancellor and four presidents. One president at each university. A chancellor is the head of the UH System. A president is the head of each institution (university). This applies to all university systems in Texas. So in Texas, the highest official at a university is a President, not Chancellor. A Chancellor is higher than the President and this position is at the system level, not university level.
Boney could have not been a Chancellor at UHD because that position did not exist then, nor does it exist now.
It was not until 1997 that Arthur K. Smith became both chancellor of the UH System and president of UH simultaneously. Even so, his titles were "Chancellor of UH System" and "President of the University of Houston".
Also, if you were to look at your cited reference closely, it says "Past Presidents". Even on the main gallery, "Past Presidents". The Chancellor title does not exist at the university level in Texas.

Otherwise, WP:TBK seems to be the closest match, and that says possible bases for a finding of notability include, in particular, whether the book is published by an academic press, how widely the book is cited by other academic publications or in the media. This is both published by an academic press and widely cited in other academic publications. This is getting silly. nableezy - 16:49, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Racaille

message: This article should be retained for English-language Wikipedia readers.  The term 'racaille' has appeared in English-language international news reports of events within France.  Because of this, the term is of interest to an international readership which reads in English, but not French.
For article retention
I don't believe this article can be deleted on the grounds that wilipedia does not exist as a french/english dictionary. Defining the term is not a matter of translation but rather of importance as english readers for its comprehension. With the scandal incited by Nicolas Sarkozy in its increasing use it has begun to apppear in British press. I believe the term will be seen more commonly in the future. 
Often english articles retain some 'original language' words as embelishment and so it is essential that a modern, up-to-date point of reference exists such as wikipedia. There is also debate into whether racaille is the equivalent or not of the english slang chav. I think that this article is of modern cultural interest.

I appreciate AKR619's dedication in readjusting the page and tidying things up, but now the page is titled "Princess Irmaplotz and Queen Zathura," when it's about the characters "Princess Irmoplotz and Queen Zonthara."  I don't really know the first thing about changing the page's url to reflect this.  On a separate but similar note, they are the rulers of "Hiergoth," this I hadn't fixed earlier (but fixed now), as it appears in about one episode's credits.  Those with recordings can double-check all of these spellings on the credits of "Fiends and Family / Plunderball."

Research that shows contrary views should be welcome here.  "A blizzard of cites" is grounds to find a blizzard of cites that rebut the originals.  On other issues, such as Galileo and the Sun being the center of the Universe, the fringe idea turned out to be the correct one.
