replies: text: Samuel Wesley →  – We have articles on several notable Samuels Wesley and this article does not meet WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. I therefore propose parenthetical disambiguation.

message: After the move of  to Samuel Wesley (composer, born 1766), the former page was changed from a REDIRECT pointing to the latter to a REDIRECT to Samuel Wesley (disambiguation).

Talk:Charles Wood (composer)

message: Any Idea why his anthems, hymns or other choral works do not appear here? He wrote quite some, to mention a few: 
* 'Tis the day of Resurrection
* Ascencion Hymn
* Expectans expectavi
* God omnipotent reigneth
* Haec dies
* I am risen
* I will call upon God
* Jesu, the very thought is sweet
* O King most high
* O Lord that seest from yon starry height
* O Lord, Rebuke me not
* O most merciful
* O thou sweetest source
* Prelide Martyrs
* Prelude Old 104th
* Prelude Old 132nd
* Prelude Old 136th
* Prelude Psalm 23
* Prelude York Tune
* Sunlight all golden
* The earth trembled
* This is the day
* True Love's the gift
These choral titles are from a recording Gonville and Caius College Choir, to be precise CD with ASIN nr B00005RGJK
I think mentioning some of the titles is not a copyright infringement since his works are in library and from 189X 
I hope someone can include his choral hymns and anthems as well. "Hail, gladdening light" is quite well known.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.111.36.244 (talk) 00:42, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Although the use of "he" and "his" in gender ambiguous context was standard, this is no longer the case in many academic publications (the area discussed in this article).

Talk:John Taverner

message: I was under the impression that instrumental works "In Nomine" by various composers were not modelled on this section - they had in practice a number of different parts, resulting in In Nomines à 4, à 5, à 3, etc. ... but rather quoted a (specific) memorable melody from the Taverner work. Though it is true that their texture, with this melody tending to occupy a plainchant-like place, was similar (if sometimes in the bass, sometimes alto, etc.) - again so far as I know, which is not all that far?... 
Also, re Taverner the opera being based on the life of ... I think that's rather like saying Palestrina the opera is based on the life of Palestrina.

Was going to suggest it to be added in an external links section like the following but as it is linking to our own site, following the instructions of the Wikipedia guidelines, thought it would be best to leave this in the talk page for other contributors to see if it would be relevant or see if there was a better place/format to put it

This message was deleted a day later. Having read the actual articles on the subject, this comment seems right to me, and statements like "Brenner and Reynolds blame each other for conceiving the hoax" are misleading.  Brenner, apparently, denies having known it was a hoax at all.  Reynolds admits it was a hoax, but blames Brenner as the mastermind.

Talk:Artificial castling

message: There are some problems with the analysis.
Black's fourth move, 4...Nxe4 doesn't deserve ?!.
This is the move recommended by theory, and both MCO and NCO give it without any punctuation.
In the first line given in the article, the recommended move for Black is 7...d5 instead of 7...Be7, and both MCO and NCO consider it to give Black a definite advantage.
In the final position of the first line, Black has the advantage anyway due to the two bishops and the queenside majority.
The later recommendation of 5.0-0! transposes into the Boden-Kieseritzky Gambit.
This move may or may not deserve the exclamation mark.
The B-K is thought to favor Black, although it can be difficult to defend over the board.
It's certainly better than 5.Bxf7+ since that's just better for Black.
The statement that Black can't keep his extra e-pawn after 5.0-0 is false.
After 5...Nxc3 6.dxc3 Black's best defense may be 6...f6 when after 7.Nh4 Black can reply 7...Ne7 or 7...g6 and White will have to work hard to justify his pawn deficit. Quale 01:08, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  I am responsible for the first line given; I also gave 4 ... Nxe4 a !, though perhaps it deserves no special mark. Subsequent vociferous edits by 65.95.128.154 disagreed. I think the final position in the third line is about equal; I do mention the queenside majority and bishop pair, but White can cripple the majority on his next move with Nxc6.

Talk:Mitsubishi Galant Lambda

message: I'm about ready to move this article to Mitsubishi Galant Lambda so that the page is named after the domestic market model and Mitsubishi Sapporo redirects to it. Currently Mitsubishi Galant Lambda is a redirect page with a one line edit history, so as per WP:MOVE it's OK to overwrite a page like this without admin intervention.
The current article also seems to have been very Plymouth Sapporo-centred (they were merged on 04:12, April 26, 2005, but obviously not rewritten). I've tried to make it more model-neutral, and I've also deleted most of the content about the unreliability of the mechanicals. Aside from the fact that there's no citations to support this, when I went looking for corroboration/contradiction I found the Allpar.com page on the Plymouth, where owners' testimonies seem to indicate that it suffered none of the problems referred to here.
Therefore, my rewrite, currently at User:DeLarge/Galant Lambda, will be copy/pasted here and then the page will be moved/redirected, unless there's any dissenting voices. --DeLarge 21:49, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
