Talk:Legend (Gemmell novel)

message: Legend by Marie Lu has been released recently, and I was wondering, for experienced Wikipedia editors, how to incorporate an article on this book into Wikipedia once it becomes more well-known.  Would there be one page for Legend (novel) and links to each book?  Or would the author's last name be added somewhere in the page title? Thanks!

Talk:Seiryo Tennan

message: John Rafter Lee (who plays the Jurai Emperor Asuza) is sometimes also credited as being Seiryo's VA, but in tone the character sounds far more like fellow dub VA John DeMita, who's also credited for this episode. Since the Pioneer release was so dicey about giving proper credits to the Network actors it'll always remain somewhat a matter of contention. Papacha 12:49, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

This article may get somewhat vexing for readers especially those looking for Kutta (Hindi/Urdu: dog). The thing is, one popular term for kutta is its plural form, kutte. So basically, all I'm doing is adding a link to the Kutta page just to clear out the confusion for people arriving to WikiLand from Googleports. Thanks for all the coorperation(s).

Talk:Methyl acetate

message: One page (Methyl methanoate) says the IUPAC name is "Methyl Acetate", whereas the Ethyl Ethanoate page says the IUPAC name is Ethyl Ethanoate. I believe the Methyl Acetate page is wrong, as Acetate is a common name, and not one that directly gives you anything about its structure.
In case I haven't been clear, one page uses Acetate, the other uses Ethanoate; yes, they are both correct parts of the larger name, but they are clearly made with different rules, and I do not think the IUPAC system would use Acetate in its naming.

Talk:Abraxas Pool

message: Abraxas Pool is an album of former Santana band members, in which the musicians featured try to recapture the sound and spirit of the pre-spiritual musical efforts of Carlos Santana, as started on the fine 'headphone' album Caravanserai. The band is obviously named after the second Santana album Abraxas. A must for the committed Santana fan, this is really 'Santana without Santana'. Neal schon, a capable guitarist who joined carlos for the Santana III and Caravanserai albums, tries hard to emulate the breathtaking and immediately recognisable style of Mr. Santana. However, predictably he only comes remotely near. Though Schon obviously can't touch Santana on guitar, he is obviously quite capable in his own right, and it does interestingly highlight the fact that Carlos' guitar playing is really in a league of it's own.
But this is a joyful effort throughout, with the same spirit of musical and lyrical sincerity we get from Carlos and Co. We might well consider this album a genuine addition to the Santana catalogue, since Carlos himself has always been very generous in allowing other musicians, including guitarists, to grace and shape the music in his musical adventures. It's easy to see this album as an extension of Santana. And the devoted Santana fans will easily hope that some time the guys on the album, and perhaps a different line-up of ex-Santana members, will get together again and make an 'Abraxas Pool II' album. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.219.231.1 (talk • contribs) 13:10, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Black Easter

message: In p261, note 5, of The Missouri Review, Vol 7, number 2 of 1984, David Ketterer has a comment on the names of characters in "Black Easter"
In the comment he says that Ted White wrote a review of "Black Easter" in Amazing Stories ( Amazing Stories Jan 1970 p 122).   In this review Ted White posits that the Baines character is a reference to President Lyndon Baines Johnson. "Baines is a caricature (even his name points to this fact: the middle name of a President most doctrinaire Liberals despise as a war-monger)" p 123
Ketterer then goes on to say in his note that Blish wrote a reply to this letter (Amazing Stories, July 1970 p137-138.  This is incorrect, Blish letter in reply to White's review is actually in Amazing Stories, January 1971 p116) that scotches this interpretation of Baines as LBJ.  I have read this letter in the Amazing Stories issue of Jan 1971 and while Blish disagrees strongly with Ted White's revue, he makes no assertion
or reference to Baines as LBJ.  Therefore, part of Ketterer's note is incorrect.
