Talk:Wolfen (film)

message: **The sentence "The Wolfen were not werewolves, but in fact a more advanced version of a wolf which sat above man on the food chain." seems very out of place in the Production section. Can we consider adding this to an "in-movie" reality section or something?--Photoactivist (talk) 21:17, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

message: It would all depend upon one's definition of "werewolf."  a heck of a lot of cultures have such ideas, but they are not all the same.  in western movies, people, almost always men, become werewolves when their bodies change.  but in many cultures the idea is that the skinchanger's soul enters the body of the animal, as we see in George RR Martin's "Song of Ice and Fire" series.  Bran's body stays behind, sleeping and unchanged, when he enter's his wolf's body and Hodor's body.

Talk:Isabel Luberza Oppenheimer

message: This entry has the following paragraph :  "After this episode, she left him and returned home, only to find out that her home was now being used as a brothel. Isabel, maybe being naive, at first did not know the women occupying her house were selling their bodies to men, as she thought they were giving out sex only because they liked it. However, soon she discovered they were selling themselves, and she began to do business in prostitution."
What kind of nonsense is this??  She moved back into her home to find it inhabited by women having sex?  It sounds like a surrealist movie.  This is quite obviously not verifiable; it doesn't even make sense. 
The diffs have very contradictory versions of events, and nothing is cited in support of anything.  --TJive 19:56, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. This reads like a bad gossip magazine article. I'm not too inclined to research it through, but perhaps I will later on. Oppenheimer was extremely well connected and was a powerful social force in her hometown... well enough to have a movie made after her. However, whoever wrote this better come back and clean this up(!) Demf 16:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

message: The article currently has a mistake. This person's last name is Oppenheimer. Her first name is Isabel, and her middle name is Luberza. Note 1 claims that "Luberza" is her first last name. ("This name uses Spanish naming customs: the first or paternal family name is Luberza and the second or maternal family name is Oppenheimer.") This is incorrect. The name should be alphabetized under Oppenheimer (Oppenheimer, Isabel Luberza).--Lawrlafo (talk) 20:07, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

thread_title: WorldCat Genres

message: Why is it relevant that Bruno Schulz (1892–1942, Poland) was a holocaust victim? Of all the authors on the list he is the only one where the cause of death is mentioned. So why not add heart attacks, accidents, suicides and murders regarding all the other authors? This is a list of horror writers, their nationality and when they were born and when they died. That's it. Except for Bruno Schulz obviously.
(Also, Supernatural Fiction Database is a good place to start if someone wants to look for names for those who wants to create a new Wikipedia article about a horror author that still doesn't have an article) 46.212.117.57 (talk) 22:29, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with the previous writer that the cause of death for Bruno Schulz should be removed from the article. Perhaps you would like to give your reasons why you think otherwise? I want to emphasize that I do not at all want to say that that cause of death is not relevant. But I think it should be treated within the Bruno Schulz article, not in the list. Because, as has been said, it would be the only exception in all of the list where we give such a biographical piece of information. Daranios (talk) 11:22, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Lahti L-35

message: I just changed a small part of the article because the Lahti is actually very easy to field strip and clean: just push the take-down-lever down - and then the slide, bolt and barrel comes right off the frame, after which one can take apart the whole system very easily into its main parts. I own a Lahti, so I know, and you will also find disassembly videos on youtube (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcIdyjMgeTw )  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.11.5.68 (talk) 23:02, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

See for example ( "This is also one of the easiest pistols of that era to disassemble for routine maintenance and put back together after it. The pistol breaks into just four (five if magazine included) parts in routine maintenance disassembly."), and the video about the Lahti on IanMcCollum's Forgotten Weapons YouTube channel (, disassembly at 4:55).

Talk:2006 Nova Scotia general election

message: I would put the popular vote %ages up myself, but the regions used in wikipedia differ from those used at the CBC. the CBC's regions are the same used in 2003, and so you could put the change, but editing the ridings to fit within the proper regions is not easy...

thread_title: Untitled

message: Can I suggest that links are not made on names that do not already have an article in place. 
I just removed links to two GPNS candidates that were pointing to pages for people who are almost certainly not the right person.
My guess is that the whole page needs to be audited. All the live links need to be verified that they point to the actual candidate, and deleted if they are wrong. All the red links need to be deleted. If not there exists the danger that an article will be written for another person of the same name.

Talk:Key (character)

message: I've added a brief definition of the comic book collecting term "key" since I feel this is what most users would expect when coming to this article (It's what I came expecting to find). This is a common term as demonstrated by my cite to the glossery of the current Overstreet price guide. My change was immediately deleted without explanation. In my opinion the definition of "key" as used in comic collecting is much more important than a detailed description of some character who's appeared 3 times in 80 years.--Socktopi (talk) 08:34, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:WNSR

message: Man, I really don't get the chopping and blanking on this one.  Who owns the station is a matter of public record, not speculation or opinion.  The lawsuit in regard to ESPN affiliation is likewise such (who should win is POV, but the existence of it is definitely not).  The station's broadcast power, daytime and nighttime, is also a matter of record.  The only things on the page which could be deemed "opinion" are the effective signal radius (discussion of which the station seemingly brings on itself by advertising that it can be heard essentially all over the Midstate, which it can't) and whether the signal pattern has anything to do with protecting WHBQ (which is a class B station, so it seems relevant).
