thread_title: Disambiguation

message: Will someone kindly go in and remove all the ambiguous writing?  Who exactly is "him" and "his" in the following sentence: "Joab thrust three spears through the heart of Absalom as he struggled in the branches and his ten armour-bearers came around and slew him."  Whose armour-bearers?  There are numerous examples. Either that, or dump the whole page. Tom NM (talk) 11:14, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've hopefully cleared up most of the ambiguities. I'm still not happy with most of the article and intend to do some more rewriting. Noisms (talk) 21:04, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Ambiguous Writing

message: Can someone please rewrite the "have sex with everything and anyone possible" line? It sounds like a troll wrote it. I'm not saying it isn't good to note the public-sex-with-ten-concubines thing, but it can be written a little more tastefully.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.61.113.61 (talk) 02:41, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Is the caterpillar in the Tim Burton-adaptation of 'Alice in Wonderland' Absalom or Absolem? According to the entry on the 'Alice in Wonderland (2010 film)' page, it's the latter. The internet seems to agree. But I don't believe either of these are adequate sources? I'll leave it in more professional hands.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:8003:402A:9E00:ED79:1254:1A99:D8EE (talk) 17:07, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

message: §Fiction says
:In the novel Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card, the main character Bean invokes the quote to give solace to the kamikaze pilots Ender had unknowingly sent to their deaths to defeat the Formics.
There are many quotations in the article; which one is being referred to here?
--Thnidu (talk) 22:22, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Which quotation? 

message: The plot summary says in the fourth paragraph
:However, Bean deduces from various clues that the "simulations" are real battles: Ender and his "jeesh" are commanding human fleets attacking Bugger planets via the Ansible, an instantaneous communications device. 
But "jeesh" is never explained. An assistant? A gadget? A technique?

message: Some Bible translations, etc. in English use an alternative transliteration: Absalon. Should this be added to the introductory paragraph of the article? --216.15.56.15 (talk) 10:27, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
