thread_title:  Splitting proposal 

message: A flag on this section says it appears to contain clutter - trivial, minor, or unrelated references.  I suggest it doesn't.  The section mentions four popular-culture works; all four are linked to their own articles, and all four content-creators are identified and are also linked to their own articles.  To me, this comprehensive linking establishes tht all the works, and their creators, are NOTABLE - not trivial, or minor.  (And the details included within the section establish tht the references are not unrelated.)
Accordingly, and given tht the links are of course on plain display in the section, it seems to me clear tht the section doesn't even appear to contain clutter references.  The flag is uncomplicatedly mistaken.  I suggest deleting it.  (It's been there since Oct_2019.)
Beyond that, I'd suggest there's also a Wikipolicy issue.  How about amending the relevant policy too?
As a general thing, it's clearly reasonable to suggest tht these "References in culture" sections should include citations to reliable, secondary sources, rather than simply listing appearances.  But the circumstances here present an exception, where the links themselves demonstrate Wikipedia's own assessments of importance.  In this case, citations of third-party assessments seem at best pointless.  I'd think the policy should be amended to recognise this exception. 2A04:B2C2:405:EB00:BDB6:D58:F466:219 (talk) 23:33, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:173 Hours in Captivity

message: "...a series of human tragedies in the months and years following the hijacking of IC 814 could have been avoided."
This sounds like a veiled threat. By "tragedies", the author is clearly implying 9/11. In fact, the entire section is questionable. Rewrite the section differently; who claims that these "tragedies" could have been avoided? Is that a personal opinion, the opinion of someone else, fact (doubtful), or what?

thread_title: General

message: Since James Buckley was a Senator, he could not have introduced the legislation in the House, as stated in this section.  Also, the history says that the bill was passed by the House in 1973, then by the Senate in Feb. 1974, but not signed by the President until August 1974.  This is impossible, since Article I Section 7 of the U.S. Constitution says that a bill becomes law without the President's signature if the President has neither signed nor vetoed it within 10 days of its passage.

Talk:Anders Norudde

message: Is "The Great Fury" a generally accepted translation of Den stora vreden? Also, is "the Popular Theatre in Gävle" a generally accepted translation of Gävleborgs Folkteater? Strange indeed, since it is not a theatre only for Gävle but for a region. We are not talking about tings in general here, but about a play (based on a book) and a theatre; the names are proper names (sv. "egennamn"). Please keep away from home made translations of those. It is much better to write the Swedish name instead. / Habj 13:47, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it would be useful for English-speaking readers to have some kind of translation of the title "Den stora vreden"; and I don't see providing such a translation as problematic, so long as it's relatively accurate, and the original Swedish title is also provided.  No argument on the name of the theatre, the name I provided previously was as I found it on another site.  I've added a link to the "Gävleborg County" entry. -- Takwish 18:02, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: If Vreden indeed has been translated to English, and the English title is something completely else (not at all uncommon) then offering a home made translation is misleading. Btw the title Den stora vreden is not at all easy to understand; it can easily be mistaken for a description of a person being angry, but that is not what it is about (seen the play, read the book - almost, not finished all the 1200 pages). Regarding the theatre maybe a description could be added after the name, rather than a translation of it. I am not sure how to describe the concept of "länsteater" though. / Habj 03:39, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

text: If someone wants to add literal translations of book titles etc., I won't object as long as it is obvious that it is a literal translation and not a title that the book can be found under in English. "(rough translation: The big wrath)" or something would do, I guess. / Habj 03:44, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

text: Regarding the play, it seems there are a few versions around. At an old version of Hedningarna's website  it looks like the person who made the page didn't even know the Swedish name of the projekt, but used the translation "The great wrath" in Swedish text. / Habj 07:57, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Source 

message: I'm not such at which point they put this in a vacuum chamber? Exposing frozen potatoes to sunlight may be a preservation process that drys something, but it does not involve a vacuum to sublimate the ice.
A key concept of freeze drying is the the use of a vacuum to dry something.
This may be freezing and then drying afterwards (they probably do it in a windy place I'd imagine and this sort of approximates the same effect) but I think whoever wrote this has therefore taken a literal translation of the words and not the process called "freeze-drying"

Talk:Pope Celestine I

message: It says:
In a letter to certain bishops of Gaul, dated 428, Celestine rebukes the adoption of special clerical garb by the clergy. He wrote: "We [the bishops and clergy] should be distinguished from the common people [plebe] by our learning, not by our clothes; by our conduct, not by our dress; by cleanness of mind, not by the care we spend upon our person".[4]
Nowhere in the cited encyclopedia article does it have this.  The closest statement is that Pope St. Celestine I forbade Bishops to dress as Monks.  Clearly, somewhat different!
The comment you cite comes from the article, "Clerical Costume," in the another volume.

Category talk:Hawaii stubs

message: There are two reasons for double-stubbing articles:
#Many editors search for articles not by location but by type of article. One of the most popular category types for editors loking for articles to expand is the geographical category.
#WP:WSS regularly checks geographical categories such as :Category:Western US geography stubs to see which individual areas have reached criteria for splitting into their own categories. One of the most important criteria used is the number of stubs. If a Hawaii-geo-stub is to be considered for creation, there should be the maximum number of possible Hawaiian geography stubs available for counting - i.e., in the Western US geography stubs category. If there are fewer than there should be, there is less chance of the new category being created.

message: Translated before it was published in Italy? Possible of course, but seems unlikely, and needs explaining if so.. Rich Farmbrough, 08:09 6  April 2007 (GMT).
:1950 seems highly unlikely and probably derives from a hasty reading of the reference given in footnote 5. According to http://des.emory.edu/mfp/calvino/calchrono.html Calvino begins to undertake the project that will lead to the Italian Folktales in 1954. The same page gives the date of the first English translation as 1962, but doesn’t say who translated or published it. The earliest translation I can find on COPAC is by Sylvia Mulcahy, published by Dent in 1975; Library of Congress seems to have nothing earlier than George Martin’s translation (New York : Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, c1980). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ian Spackman (talk • contribs) 10:17, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
