Talk:Associated-Rediffusion

message: Why is there a comma in "Rediffusion London" when there isn't one in their logo? PMA 14:39, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Comma 

message: Does anyone have *definite* proof (TV Times or similar) that the company changed its name on 30th March 1964?  I always thought it was one week later - Monday 6th April (as is stated on the TV Ark page linked to here).  The Times listings change to state "Rediffusion" rather than "Associated-Rediffusion" on Tuesday 7th April; my guess is that someone at the paper had seen it on the Monday, realised that it had changed, and the listings were changed accordingly.
Mind you, if it *was* 30th March (Easter Monday, though - perhaps not a likely day to launch a new identity) that would be mindblowing - three days after the last Children's Hour and what I think was Raymond Glendenning's last radio commentary, and the day after Radio Caroline started (and Peter and Gordon's "A World Without Love", the beginning of Wienerisation, hit the Top 20).

Talk:Malton, North Yorkshire

message: The infobox says 11,890 but then the intro says "The town contains the offices of Ryedale District Council and has a population of around 4,000 people".  Does anyone know which is correct?

thread_title:  Vulgarities 

message: Note that "shot (alcohol)" is a redirect to this article. However, this article is entitled "shooter (mixed drink)" and says that a shooter is a mixed drink. It seems pretty obvious that sometimes people will drink a "shot" of alcohol that is not a mixed drink – for example, it is common to drink a "shot" of whisky. Obviously, whisky is not a mixed drink. It seems like there should either be a different article created for the concept of a "shot", or the scope of this article should be broadened to include non-mixed drinks. Which is better? I notice that there is a "shot glass" article, but that is primary about the glassware, not the drink itself. Should "shot (alcohol)" become a redirect to "shot glass" instead of a redirect to "shooter (mixed drink)"? (However, I believe that in informal discussions, it is possible to refer to drinking a shot of something without necessarily meaning that a shot glass will be used.) —BarrelProof (talk) 23:43, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a confusion that seems to have developed only in recent years.  Before that, a shot was known universally as a single-portion of any kind of spirits.

Talk:Interest (disambiguation)

message: There are a ton and a half  of articles with the word interest in the name, but no good article on the generic concept.  Interests and Interesting both redirect to "Attention", but that's not necessarily the best solution.  Anyone got a better way to approach the problem? 
Should Interest be overridden with a more generic Britannica-based  definition at the top of this page, and moved to Interest (financial)? MrZaiustalk 20:08, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

message: :The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 
The result of the move request was: Not moved; no consensus. There are nearly 1,000 links to "interest" (which makes moving this a significant bit of work), and nobody has shown that mislinks intended for another topic are a problem. Certainly no consensus to move to a red link; if there is a need to disambiguate then , the title this was moved off as per unnecessary disambiguation in 2006, or , which is Britannica's "short description", are the obvious choices as finance and economics are major topic areas. –  wbm1058 (talk) 21:31, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Chrysler 2.2 & 2.5 engine

message: 76.17.61.168, your reversion of my edit was not appropriate, and has been undone. Here's why: My edit replaced unencyclopædic POV text with encyclopædic and descriptive NPOV text, and included a valid wikilink to the technology in question. Variable-nozzle turbochargers significantly reduce turbo lag, but they do not eliminate it. Also, while I have owned and driven many 2.2 & 2.5 turbo cars, including TIV units, my vehicle ownership history is just as irrelevant to this article as yours. It also doesn't make any difference how cool you or I may think the Turbo-IV cars are. Remember, the standard for information in Wikipedia articles is not "truth", but verifiability, and assertions — especially those that can reasonably be challenged — must be supported with citations from reliable sources. It doesn't matter what you or I or anyone else knows or thinks he knows, it matters what we can prove per Wikipedia's requirements. Please try not to take it personally when text you've added to an article is modified as part of an effort to improve the article according to Wikipedia's standards. Please also take a few moments to click the links embedded in this comment to learn more about how to make your contributions more likely to remain part of the article as it evolves and improves with the effort of all who choose to participate.

Talk:List of destroyer classes

message: The PLAN (Chinese Navy) section needs to be editted slightly to whit:
Sovremennyj: 2 Ships
Sovremennyj II: 2 Ships
As of last year, the PLAN has has two more Sovs than in their original OOB, with potentially more on the way in their effort to create a significant blue water navy. However, the Sovs in their fleet after their first two carry armaments significantly different from the original payloads, save for one key SSM, as well as modified propulsion and drafting systems, which constitue a whole new class, hence the Sov II designation. This is a change recgnized by both NATO and the USN.

I agree.  Additionally, the American Standard of Perfection for poultry is quoted and used to discuss appearance, and yet the pictures you have are of two birds from EUROPE, both with major disqualifying flaws.  Most obvious is the fault known as "vulture hocks" and second is the poor color and penciling.  This is an attrocious entry all in all.  If I knew how to fix it, I would.......
This page as a whole should not be removed however it does need major editing. I have edited one of the sections and may do more work on it again soon. The photograph of the light brahma with the vulture hocks should be removed because it is not representative of the breed.
