Talk:Max Keith

message: I support  merging the two articles.  If he had accomplished more or was notable for more than creating Fanta then perhaps he would deserve a larger and more expansive independant article. --Sand Squid 17:59, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: He is worth his own article, a very notable man.  While you have a point that there is a lot of overlap with the creation of Fanta, the rest of the information about him doesn't belong in the Fanta article.  So, I don't think a merge is appropriate.  Regards, Ben Aveling 21:36, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

text: Running Cocacola in Nazi Germany was more than just inventing Fanta.  If you can get your hands on a copy of Mark Pendergrast's book "For God, Country and Coca-cola" you'll see that he devotes an entire chapter to it.  Otherwise, a google search will give you a feel for some of the impact Keith had.  You are right that the article should be expanded.  But being a stub isn't grounds for deletion.

message: I'm removing Tom Selleck from the "Former Famous Stars" section.  My best guess is 1) Tom Selleck is an actual american baseball player who just happens to be linked to the American actor.  2) This is a joke by someone who's seen Mr Baseball (1992).  Or 3)  Someone took Mr Baseball (1992) a little too seriously.
Please prove me wrong, because I'd love to know if Tom Selleck actually played professional baseball in Japan. Zukkie44 (talk) 22:04, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Tom Selleck 

message: I have started updating the player roster, player pages and I will be looking to update as much of the history as I get my hands on it. My Japanese language ability is pretty good so I will also draw information from the jawiki pages where I can. I'll be aiming to take care of the page for the foreseeable future, at least through the 2016 NPB season. I'm looking to overhaul a lot of this page when I get time. 
My plan at present is to insert more history from the recent era (2007 onwards) and then hopefully work backwards. I'll also be looking to add sections like cultural influence, maybe famous fans (if I can find that information), as well as info pages on former managers, legends, etc. Tackling this on my own will take some time, so bare with me as things get slowly updated.

Talk:Baháʼu'lláh

message: Hello, I am a Baha'i and am humbling requesting that the photograph of Baha'u'llah be removed from the page, or at least put towards the bottom with a disclaimer. It is currently there as a portrait. Baha'u'llah's photograph is considered sacred to us and only to be viewed in a setting of reverence, and by placing it on the Wikipedia page it opens it up to online desecration through photoshopping and idolatry. The Baha'i Faith  has very similar rules about depictions of religious figures to Islam, and this matter is nearly identical to not having illustrations of the Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) on his Wikipedia page. I am asking you to remove it out of respect for Baha'u'llah and his followers worldwide. Thank you. Napoleondehuette (talk) 01:33, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Bahais will display the picture of Abdul Baha, Baha’u’llah’s son and the perfect exemplar of the Baha’i Faith in their homes but not the picture of Baha’u’llah. Bahá’ís are asked to treat the image of any Manifestation of God with extreme reverence. It is for this reason we could replacing the picture of Baha’u’llah with Abd'u'lbaha.

Talk:New Street, Birmingham

message: In the United States there is a big argument over whether to say, “Merry Christmas” or, “Happy Holidays”.  (Incidentally if I say either I say, “Happy Christmas”.   “Merry Christmas” encourages people to drink alcohol till they are merry, possibly to carry on after that till they are drunk.)  In Britain there is not the same concern over the word Christmas.  British shop workers don’t routinely say, “Happy Christmas” or “Happy Holidays” to customers.  Therefore British people who are not Christians don’t feel that the Christian festival is being pushed onto them to the same extent.  The lights in the picture of New Street are Christmas lights.  They celebrate the Christian festival of Christmas.  Similarly Hanukah lights celebrate the Jewish Hanukah festivals and Divali lights celebrate the Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist and Jain Duvali festival.

message: 'the Waterstone's bookshop which occupies the former grade II listed Midland Bank building'
Should this say, 'the Waterstone's bookshop which occupies the grade II listed building formerly used by the Midland Bank' or some such phrase? Currently, it sounds a bit ambiguous about the building being listed, whereas I think it means to say that it's no longer the Midland Bank.
Reference here at Birmingham City Council refers to 'New Street 128 (Waterstones)':

Talk:Kosovo/Archive 4

message: I would like to sum up all pro et contras:
Kosovo and Metohia
pros:
*Non-ambiguous
*Official legitimate local title
contras:
*Less widely known in English world
*Albanians don't like it
Kosovo
pros:
*Most widely known in English world (by Googlecheck)
contras:
*Ambiguous. Kosovo is a part of Kosovo and Metohija
*Derogating Serbs
**Note: according to User:Nikola Smolenski, the usage of Kosovo is not insultive to Serbs, and a Google search for "Kosovo i Metohija" in Serbian returns 13,000 pages while search for "Kosovo" in Serbian returns 70,900 pages, so it is mentioned four times as much.
:::Without taking sides, the above Google search is completely useless - first of all, every hit for "Kosovo i Metohija" is also a hit for "Kosovo", so you would at least have to subtract that. Also, the word "Kosovo" is a part of other names, like "Kosovo polje", not to mention that it also means "blackbird's", or even "pertaining to KOS (the former military intelligence service)". Also, Slavic languages are heavily inflected and this only gives you results for the nominative. Zocky 14:56, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)

replies: text: I also wandered in on this (from the disputed articles category), and am failing to see what specifically the dispute is.  One editor is claiming that the information provided is not accurate, and that the source is not reliable, however provides no sources to back up his/her claims.

message: The section on the quart says that "Aicher's font sizes are based on the DIN standard then in development, which uses the H-height, whereas in lead typesetting the larger cap height was used," however the link from "H-height" goes to the Wikipedia page for cap height, which implies that the two terms are synonymous, both meaning the hight from the baseline to the top of the capital H (or any other flat-topped capital letter). 
Is it possible that one of these is supposed to be ascender height (baseline to highest ascender) or body height (lowest descender to highest ascender)?

message: I have removed the flag, :File:Flag of Castor.png, from the infobox, because I believe it to be erroneous. The grant of arms to the Town of Castor by the Canadian Heraldic Authority, dated 15 August 2011, also grants to Castor a flag of the arms: Per pale wavy Azure and Or two beavers sejant respectant countercharged. I cannot find any primary sources indicating that :File:Flag of Castor.png is genuinely the flag of Castor, and Flags of the World, from where the flag is sourced, provides no indication of the purported flag's history or use, filling the so-called description of the flag with general information about Castor itself.
