message: I hope to get around to some of this soon:
* NPOV! Much of this reads like a strongly positive review - I agree, but that's not what we're doing here. Too many jokes, too.
* Copyediting. Looks like a first-draft translation.
* Move character descriptions into a separate section, + general reorganization.
* Add ISBN links for books.

replies: text: Sort of "Ootievaal" Johnbod (talk) 13:59, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Well...try a-ee-tuh-wahl, with the "a-ee" as a single syllable and the "w" not too rounded — but not a v, please. And the "W" at the beginning of his name is just, as any W, a ligature of two Vs (so: V V) which again is the same as two Us (so: U U). His name thus really was Uutewaal, but the doubling of the U was rendered by putting a "y" or an "i" behind the first "u": Uytewaal of Uitewaal. And the doubling of the "a" was at the time written as "ae": Uytewael or Uitewael. It's all quite simple, really.--MWAK (talk) 06:54, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: I can understand the "v", as the unrounded w sounds identical to adult English speakers. But Dutch uu and ui are totally different sounds from "oo". Unless you speak Cockney, of course :o). The e in "te" is an unstressed vowel and is basically identical to the English schwa.--MWAK (talk) 17:25, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: Well, it is rather more complicated. Modern members of the Wtewael family pronounce their name as . This reflects mediaeval pronunciation, still common in eastern Dutch dialects, and the fact that the W is simply a "uu". So the article is correct in providing this pronunciation. But in modern Dutch the word would normally be spelled Uitewaal, indeed pronounced as , and not using sounds overly alien to the English tongue, if you know which they are ;o).--MWAK (talk) 06:15, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

The section of the article in its current stance marked "Bias" covers much of the same material. If the deleted material is to be returned to the article, I suggest it should go here, and that the wording needs to be changed substantially so as to present a critical view rather than endorse it.

Talk:Crown Council of Ethiopia

message: I have edited the page and removed "Selassie" as a family name.  "Selassie" was the second half of the two word first names of Emperor Haile Selassie and his son Prince Sahle Selassie, not their last name.  Thus Prince Ermias is properly Prince Ermias Sahle Selassie, or just Prince Erimias, not Prince Ermias Selassie.  Prince Zera Yacob also has a two word first name (Yacob is not a middle name and should not be ommited).  Calling him Prince Zera is equivalent to refering to Pope John Paul II as "Pope John" which is not correct.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.127.253.14 (talk) 19:59, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

message: Although the Abenaki in a broad sense included First Nations people, i.e. Native Canadians, those that were in contact with the settlers/invaders would not be considered First Nations in that strict definition. They are grouped by a common language, but so are the United States, England and Australia. It wouldn't make sense to write that 'The English, a group that included the U.K. and the United States, were at war with Napoleon.' It is true however, that the Abenaki the were in contact with the settlers were eventually pushed up into Quebec, and therefore went on to become part of the First Nations.

Talk:Spag's

message: As a kid in the 50's I often visited there with my father, a typical frugal Yankee. He said it was the best store in the area for what(ever) he needed, and had been going there for years.  He apparently knew Spag, because I remember him saying 'You have a look around, I'm going to see Spag.'  Part of that was because Spag did know where everything was, or could find it.  It was not well designed for locating things as space was used for storage as well as display.  It had very high, old-style shelves, floor to ceiling shelves. By the late 50's I wanted to go there, since it was the best (value for cost) place to go.  At that time, I was particularly interested in fishing and still have several rods and reels bought there.  'Cheap' at that time tended to mean more 'value' rather than the more modern inference to 'quality'. CasualObserver'48 (talk) 09:55, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

message: What about those product/service advertisements on the radio (America and probably others) that sound like discussions and usually feature a DJ from that station? I'm not talking about integration in the show, but rather an often replayed "testimonial". In particular, I've noticed frequent promotion of cell phone stores, mattress stores, auto insurance and cable/satellite providers. Would we consider these to be advertorials? If so, the fact that this is so common may warrant particular mention. This addition would help people to identify advertorials that they've heard and generate an overall better understanding and sensitivity of advertorials.
