Talk:Delta (Norwegian police unit)

message: I have looked through various sources, including translated documents released by the Norwegian government, and as far as I can tell, there doesn't seem to be any consensus on how to refer to this unit in the English language. So far I've seen "Emergency Response Unit" , which was the previous title of this article; "Norwegian Counter-Terrorist Unit" , which is closer to the current title; “Delta force” in the Gjørv commission summary; and "the emergency squad" in the RFT on new pistols for Delta, as well as various news articles.  Since it doesn't seem like there is a single name that everyone can agree upon, perhaps it would be better to simply let the unit’s Norwegian name become the new title of the article? That's how it's done in other articles about Norwegian special operations units, like Forsvarets Spesialkommando and Marinejegerkommandoen.

Talk:Bergen station

message: I see a user has moved the article from "Bergen Station" to "Bergen railway station". I disagree with this move, and not least the rationale: "Match WP:LEAD and downcase". Articles must be titled based on two factors: their actual name (which in this case is a translation of "Bergen stasjon", which is what both general literature, NSB and the National Rail Administration call the station), the Manual of Style and to a certain degree, to fit in with other article names. Any individual railway station is a proper noun, and Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization) states "For page titles, always use lowercase after the first word, and do not capitalize second and subsequent words, unless the title is a proper noun." [my emphasis]. Based on these two simple components, all station articles in Norway have the format Foo Station, and having Bergen in a different situation looks out of place. Note that the Norwegian lower-case spelling of "stasjon" is due to Norwegian having different capitalization rules for proper nouns than English. I am aware that probably 90% of all articles on railway stations are incorrectly capitalized, but that is no excuse to increase the error-rate. After all, most people cannot capitalize (it took myself more than two years on the project to figure out the rules). Regards, Arsenikk (talk) 07:21, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: For once I have to agree with Arsenikk: "Bergen Railway Station" or "Bergen Station" is a better title than "Bergen railway station". Another acceptable title could possibly be "Bergen (railway station)"/"Bergen (station)" but this would be inconsistent with the other articles on Norwegian stations. --Aqwis (talk) 08:51, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Berit Ås

message: The last paragraph inaccurately reads: «In recent years, Ås has made headlines in Norway by promoting 9/11 conspiracy theories, namely suggesting that the attacks had not actually occurred, but were a lie instigated by the United States government[1] and speculating that the video images of the attacks had been digitally manipulated by means of data animation[2].»
This is based on one single journalist's interpretation of one talk in Horten, Norway, and it is an interpretation that Ås herself claims is wrong, as what she said was more like «There are even people who think that ...».
In this way, even Wikipedia could be said to be «speculating that the video images of the attacks had been digitally manipulated by means of data animation», in that Wikipedia in this article is doing the same as Ås did: Reporting what other people think. 212.17.141.54 (talk) 00:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Bislett Games

message: This article states that the inaugural competition was in 1965, yet the list of world records goes back to the 1920s. Clearly there is an error here somewhere.

message: Looking at this source the Dream Mile was responsible for three world records.  Our article only mentions two, omitting 1979 Coe and the list of world records on this article mentions none.  I also note that Coe's 800 record in 1979 is set two weeks before the mile.  So I'm confused and reluctant to publish wrong info.  Are (were) there two Bislett Games meets two weeks apart?  Or was one under a different meet name, or even in a different Oslo stadium?  Was the Dream Mile not part of the Bislett Games?  Why are none of the Mile world records mentioned in the article? Trackinfo (talk) 06:53, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

There seems to be little information about the painting beyond the name of the ship on the State Library of Queensland website. Without any further information, I suggest that this picture is either deleted from this article or recaptioned. The painting appears to be a representation of the dismasting on the maiden voyage - but it does not seem to match the written account of this event very well.

Proposal (b) uses the current name of the operator, which was separated from NSB in 2001, and is thus closer to common usebut it's my less-preferred option because it could establish a precedent of renaming articles every time the operator changes.

Talk:BBC UK regional TV on satellite

message: This being my first GA review I would prefer just to list my comments rather than close the candidacy and then be told I'm interpreting the GA requirements incorrectly. Given the relatively minor problems I think I would choose to hold the nomination.
#Well written: Indifferent also -- No "serious violations" of MOS, however: "Non-Sky Digital satellite users can find the Astra 2D tuning parameters here Lyngsat: Eurobird 1 & Astra 2A/2B/2D at 28.2°E." should be in external links in my opinion, or else converted to note format. Several examples of the first instance of words/phrases not being linked, rather second occurences, e.g. BBC 2W. Reference 2 is incorrectly formatted. Also as it stands "BBC regional news and satellite channel numbers" is a totally extraneous heading, sections 2 and 3 should be subheadings of it:
::1 BBC regional news and satellite channel numbers 
:::1.1 BBC One 
::::1.1.1 England 
::::1.1.2 Rest of UK 
::::1.1.3 Elsewhere 
:::1.2 BBC Two 
::2 References 
::3 See also
#Factually accurate: I have one concern. The 2nd para says ex-subscribers automatically receive the "correct" regional programmes. However the BBC states that a digibox without a viewing card or an inactive one will automatically show BBC London and BBC Two England.
