message: On 19 August 2015, Roy Jones met with Vladimir Putin in Sevastopol, Autonomous Republic of Crimea to ask for a dual Russian-American citizenship. He explained that he often visits Russia for business activity, and a passport would avoid inconvenient rides. He was then placed on the Ukrainian black list of “traitors”, “separatists” and “terrorists”. Ukrainian MP and Interior Minister’s top adviser Anton Gerashchenko also said he wants to open a “criminal case” against the athlete-turned-rapper and actor under Article 332-1 for illegally entering the “territory of Ukraine”.

Talk:In the Skin of a Lion

message: can someone plz explain to me the meaning of the title of "In the Skin of a Lion"
thx
Well I think the title "In the Skin of a Lion" is actually making a reference to being in anothers shoes. We tend to generally look at the lion as a creature of evil, something that acts without thinking. I believe that the Lion referes to all the characters in the book. Maybe even the city of Toronto itself, the title is telling us to try and look at the city a different way, to see what the characters see and how they see the city. So in order to do so, we must step into their skins, or in this case into the skin of a lion.
But that's just my opinion
Alex
in the skin of a lion is the worst book in the world.
That is absolute rubbish! In the Skin of a Lion is derived from 'The Epic of Gilgamesh.' It basically means to be the story teller. For one to wear the skin of a lion, means for then to be center of attention, and tell a story. That is what Patrick is doing. I hope that helps.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.146.15.12 (talk) 03:11, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Category talk:IBM PC compatibles

message: Could someone make the intent of this article more clear? — David Remahl 03:23, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: The reason I established the category was to find a logical, clear (and hopefully, enlightening) way of dividing articles related to PC compatibles, or as we all know them today, "PCs", from more general articles on personal computers, which of course are very different things. Also, even if the articles you mention above aren't exclusively related to PCs, the huge majority of today's computer users know them from that area, so I see nothing wrong in grouping said articles into this as well as  in more general categories. I only aim to please :-) --Wernher 04:54, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok. We'll see how it turns out. I agree that one category too many is better than one too few. I just hope that people do not think that Serial ATA is a PC-only peripheral interface, just because it is in an IBM compatible category but not a Apple Macintosh or IBM POWER based categories. The solution may be to create those too. — David Remahl 05:12, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Subgenius

message: SUBGENIUS has existed in the Public Domain since the 1980's.
SUBGENIUS is used in the trademark 'SubGenius Networks' ( subgenius.net), by SubGenius Networks™ in addition to the title of a "religion" ( subgenius.com) in use by The SubGenius Foundations 'Church of the SubGenius™'. 
SubGenius Networks is NOT a 'church' related Slack institute.
We're NOT faith based at all. It's NOT about "Bob" in the slightest. "Bob" is a trademark of the SubGenius Foundation, Inc. 
That is why I insist on the [disambig] entry for SUBGENIUS and not auto forwarding to 'Church of the' SubGenius. 'The Church of the SubGenius' has a whole category. 
We only wish to clarify the distinction between organizations. 
SUBGENIUS is a Public Domain ideology based on Slack and "Bob" is a privately held and trademarked diety owned by another organization who DOES NOT REPRESENT SubGenius Networks. 24.254.56.98 03:37, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps, but regardless, putting outside links on a disambig page is in bad taste. As well, it appears that your organization's page will not survive VFD. Given these facts, I don't think it's worthwhile to have it as a disambiguation page. I do, however, think that it may be a good idea to add the trademark issue to the church's article. -- BobDoe 03:43, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: @Adavidb the sentences you restored are sourced. But there is still the question of WP:UNDUE. The one sentence states that housing is available on campus. That is not relevant information.

replies: text: As the Greek life section remains, which involves a minority of students, I believe a section on university housing is due as well.

I deleted the bold script part of "Wilson served as dean of the school from 1941 to 1963 and was a member of the school's Tau Kappa Epsilon chapter" -- not because it was underdetailed, but because it was overdetailed. Your edit looks like it is boosting TKE.

message: Our colleague Magnolia677 has removed from "External links" a website, NOT introduced by me, with excellent photos due to the fact that the website is of a commercial nature. I have just written to her and intend to revert her edit - once. Here is what I wrote:
I just recently removed a homepage of an actress-turned-real estate vendor because it was pure advertisement with no information value to the actress's Wiki article. So no need to convince me about such cases. But here
# it's a website with EXCELLENT PICTURES nobody else has, some from the current excavations!, which together are of GREAT BENEFIT TO THE USER.
# I have no connection to the website.
# It's in Polish, I understood nothing of the text, DIDN'T EVEN REALISE THE PICS ARE FOR SALE! So zero commercial benefit if user not Polish-speaker.
(B.t.w.: there is no price, no $ or € symbol, no icon of a shopping cart, NOTHING to indicate they're trying to sell anything! So actually quite stupid/useless as a sales platform, if indeed it is one?, on the WWW!)
I have ABSOLUTELY no interest in edit-warring on this. I'm just firmly convinced that the pics are of great benefit for users & editors accessing from home, and I know a lot about the site and I've been editing a lot at this article. So pls, leave it in.

thread_title:  Useful Holy Sepulchre pictures 

message: :"Christian Europe reacted with shock: it was a spur to expulsions of Jews and, later on, the Crusades. [Ref1: Bokenkotter, Thomas (2004). A Concise History of the Catholic Church, page 155. Ref2: MacCulloch, Diarmaid (2009). A History of Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years, page 1339.]"
Both refs don't seem useful. Bokenkotter p. 155 mentions neither Hakim & 1009, nor the expulsion of Jews; MacCulloch p. 1339 is hard to find (e-book; the indicated URL, a search result, leads to table of content page referring to smth else), if page number added directly to URL (PA1339, RA1339) it leads to much earlier events, plus: searches for Hakim or 1009 are leading nowhere, access date is missing... The edit isn't trustworthy!
In short: two correct statements, but as of now completely unsourced.

Talk:The Last Defender of Camelot

message: It's been a very long time since I read this anthology. If I remembered anything other than Damnation Alley better, I'd work on expanding this article. All I do remember, and my only contribution so far, is that it's annotated. Zelazny wrote a little paragraph to accompany each piece that speaks to something personal for him about it - from what I recall, either how he came to write it, what was going on in his life at the time, or something like that. I recall that, for Damnation Alley, which I had never read before in any format - nor had I seen the movie - Zelazny noted that the novella was always his favorite telling of the story, that he was disappointed in both the novel and the movie. I remember finding the story so powerful that I set the entire anthology down for over a year. I didn't read anything by Zelazny for a while, as I let the story dissipate from my system. I took Mr. Z's word for it and never sought another format of that story. I'd like to see one of today's 21st century filmmakers, with today's CGI and focus on authenticity to the work, and rehashing of ideas from the childhoods of Boomers and Gen X (the latter being my generation), try their hand at bringing this story to the big screen again.
