Talk:Kőnig's theorem (graph theory)

message: Since this theorem was by a Hungarian named Kőnig, shouldn't the article properly use the double acute accent instead of the umlaut on his name?  Just checking here.  If nobody objects, I think I'll make the change.  Oliphaunt (talk) 09:32, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that the rule is that we use the spelling that is "usually" used in the English language literature. A random look into Math Reviews or Zentralblatt shows that the "König" spelling occurs more often than "Kőnig".  (Even though I agree that the latter is more correct, in a sense.) --Aleph4 (talk) 19:59, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Since our biography of Gyula Kőnig says that he used the umlaut in the pseudonym, "Julius König", which he used when publishing mathematics, I think we should leave it as an umlaut. That is the name he chose to be called by when writing mathematics, and this article is about his mathematics. JRSpriggs (talk) 11:22, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah yes, that would settle the matter.  Thanks! Oliphaunt (talk) 12:30, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  I don’t think it does. Gyula Kőnig is the father of Dénes Kőnig whose theorem this article is about. This discussion is duplicated in here. --Nomeata (talk) 16:24, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Bangalore Choir

message: 68.6.200.125 04:15, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Under "Criteria for musicians and ensembles", no. 6 states "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such."
David Reece was a member of Accept, a very notable band in heavy metal history.
This article is not interesting only to a small circle of people who have particular interest in the band "Bangalore Choir", but it is of interest to anyone who comes over the band Accept or is doing research in heavy metal history and encounters Accept. There ought to be an article about David Reece too, but I think one has been deleted. A redirect to Accept would be confusing here, but if a David Reece article was produced, the Bangalore Choir article might be fit to be merged with it with a redirect.--Odd M.

Wikipedia talk:Translation/Spanish Air Force Anthem

message: This is supposed to be for translating from one language´s Wikipedia to another´s. For example, if this article could be found on the Spanish Wikipedia (which I could not find), then you would use this translation system to translate the Spanish page to an English page. My advice is that you go and make an article with the song on the Spanish Wikipedia, then come back to here for the translation. I translated about half the song anyways. Some of it didn´t make sense to me, but I don't know what else it is trying to say. --Icehcky8 04:31, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:The Sorceress (play)

message: National Yiddish Theater Folksbiene is reviving and restoring the play as of Fall 2017. It is probable that the restoration process will take 1 – 3 years, though that is an assumption. The work is to be brought up to contemporary standards of an operetta including a full score for an orchestra of 5–10, full script for the cast (previous versions of the script existed only for certain actors), and modifications of the length to make it palatable for contemporary audiences (full version is repetitive and is over 3 hours in length).  I hope to be updating this page as more information about the restoration is published. In the meantime, will describe what I know in the talk sections.

thread_title:  Copyright violation 

message: Future editors, especially those who are affiliated in any way with Cincinnati Opera, must adhere to the following guidelines when editing it.
#Before even starting to edit it again, please read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for guidance.
#Remember that you are writing for an international readership, not simply Americans, and not simply your potential customers. Avoid the use of abbreviations like NYC for New York City and expressions like "around the country" for "around the United States".
#Simlarly, Wikipedia is not a newsletter or bulletin board. Avoid terms like "now", "soon", "currently" and "recently" which make the article both imprecise, and in many instances, quickly inaccurate. Instead, use expressions such as "as of 2009". 
#This is an encyclopedia article, not the web page of your organization or its blog. Do not add future performances, ticket information, donation or sponsorship solicitation. The external link to the company's official web site is at the bottom of the article for readers who are interested in it. That is sufficient.
#All additions must be neutrally worded and use encyclopedic tone and style. Any additions which can be perceived by a neutral reader as hype or PR will be immediately removed. See Wikipedia:Neutral point of view and Wikipedia:Avoid peacock terms for guidance.
#Do not paste in text from your or anyone else's official websites, blogs etc. It is a copyright violation unless the sites explicitly display a public domain license. Even so, the text almost invariably has an unsuitable promotional style and requires re-writing. Further guidance can be found on Wikipedia:Copyright violations and its associated pages.
#Remember, that once you have written an article on Wikipedia, you and/or your organization no longer own it. It will always have to conform to Wikipedia's policies on content, style and formatting – not to your organization's desired image or marketing goals.

It is always called the Teatro Reggio di Torino (or sometimes shortened to Teatro Regio Torino) in English language reference works, opera magazines, newspaper articles, etc. In this case the Italian name is better than the English one per Wikipedia:Naming conventions as the Italian name is more recognizable and precise.Singingdaisies (talk) 21:19, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
