replies: text: History indeed must must be based on original documents, but we must also follow some Wikipedia rules. It is primary because it is a collection of all historical diplomatic documents in some time period. If we start to using such information's and such sources then only the sky is our limit.

The  given source is Volume 3 (out of 18) of a collection of mediaeval source material, written in Latin and Church Slavonic. The relevant text is number 197, which you find in pp. 237–239 of the online version Mikola22 linked to (paginated 223–225).

Talk:Gordonstoun

message: We say this is one of the "last remaining full boarding schools". What does this mean? If the source says this then it does so behind the paywalled section, but I know for sure there are numerous schools that take boarders in the UK, from Eton, Rugby, Stowe etc right through to small schools such as the Royal School for the Blind and (I think) the Mary Hare school for the deaf. There are also places such as Myerscough College. "Last remaining" is pretty pointless unless "full" has a specific meaning different from (broadly speaking) some pupils staying onsite during term time. - Sitush (talk) 16:51, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Had a think about this & have removed the claim pending verification & explanation. There are dozens, perhaps many hundreds, of boarding schools still operational in the UK - at best, the claim was puffery and at worst it was plain wrong. - Sitush (talk) 21:35, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Full" boarding school 

message: Under 'controversies' the article reads: 
::"In 2020, the school carried out renovations which included work on principal Lisa Kerr's living quarters. An unnamed source claimed that the renovations cost approximately £100,000 and included £8,000 for carpets and £6,000 for flooring. Speaking to the Times, the school confirmed that Kerr "contributed significantly" to the costs and that the renovations had "become urgent in order to reconfigure classrooms and increase cleaning regimes to comply with Covid regulations".
It's not obvious why this is a controversy. I suggest taking it out this section or underline why renovations are a problem. Anna (talk) 23:16, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

Talk:1950 in music

message: I have added a list of musical shows, theatre and film produced in 1950.  Before adding similar lists for other years I would like some feedback:
Is it appropriate to include shows in the music section?
Some of the films include songs (sometimes just a title song) but are not full musicals.  Should they be excluded?—Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnRogers (talk • contribs) 05:52, 7 September 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: I suggest that the list be split betweeen Film Musicals and Musical Shows.  If the film is not a musical, exclude it.  You could list the songs from non-musical films with a note about the film they were featured in.  If you have the information on the shows it would be interesting to note where they were first produced eg Broadway, London etc. Tiles 06:03, 7 Sep 2003 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: After having looked at the articles for "year" in music, as well as articles for "year" in R&B, "year" in country, etc. I am thinking that the article simply saying "year" in music as far as recorded music goes should include the top 5-10 "pop" hits of the year with a link to more descriptive article including all the Top 10 hits, "notable" recordings, etc. as well as sections for top 5-10 R&B hits and link to full article, etc.  As it stands, these articles seem to assert that "pop" is the only music that matters in a given year but adding all the content from the articles focused on other genres of music within that given year will make the article unwieldy and overlong. Does anyone else feel that the articles simply saying (year) in music should be a general overview of the very top hits of the respective genres with spinoff articles detailing the individual genres in depth?

The source added above the diagram (Ostrauer Morgenzeitung, 4. 12. 1921) by User:Rainer Staudte (who probably knows what they're talking about better than me) is very specific, and I think it's to be trusted. --Camembert 13:57, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi I use to have an account on here under which I was heavily active but sort of semi-retired for years and forgot my password and aren't sure about  making a new account? Anyhow, I was posting about the example section. I think the compositions suffice in that they give basic demonstration and understanding to notable components of endgame studies. They are visual representations/explanations proving what is argued, just like  1+2=3  is a proving example that an odd plus an even equals an odd. Also like how the current castling example, and no other compositions of "higher notability" have been offered showing these proofs.173.89.186.121 (talk) 15:50, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Talk:The Shining (novel)

message: Per WP:PLOT I am uncertain how backstory and themes of the book would tie into this. However, it seems directly relevant to the plot per my review of the content on this that was removed.
Please see the below and let me know if the revision looks fine. Is this suitable enough to include in backstory in the plot. Please discuss. Full disclosure I am assisting editor  on this.
:In the book, developer Horace Derwent sold the hotel after losing $3 million in the year 1952 to a California group of investors. The investors ran the hotel for a period of two seasons and afterwards sold it to Mountain View. However, in 1957 Mountain View went bankrupt and the Overlook sat vacant for the rest of the decade. In 1961 the hotel was purchased by several award-winning writers and was used as a writing school for a year. The school was after that closed after a student committed suicide by jumping through a third story window.
:In 1963 the hotel was purchased by a Las Vagas group called High Country who turned the hotel into a Key club. While under the ownership of High Country a high profile Los Vagus gangster and his two body guards (Tony Gienelli, Victor T. Boorman & Roger Macassi) are murdered in the Presidential suit. The unpublished prologue, "Before the Play", puts this murder in 1958 which does not fit with the timeline in the scrapbook. The Hotel was sold in 1967 after the murder to Sylvia Hunter (formally Sylvia Durwin), who used the hotel as a high end brothel in 1967-1968.

replies: text: This backstory has no relationship to the characters or actual events of the novel. It is not required in order for the general reader (i.e. someone who knows nothing about The Shining) to get a high-level understanding of the book. For example, none of the characters mentioned here have any role in the plot that warrants mention. The reader does not need to know that the hotel was a writing school, that some of the people who died were gangsters, or how much money a previous owner lost. It is enough to say that the hotel is haunted by its past guests and occupants, and that helps the reader understand the tension the main characters face. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 03:23, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
