message: Some of the section on Ioannidis' role in the coup are referenced by a self-published book called "Η τραγική αναμέτρηση και η προδοσία της Κύπρου (The Tragic Duel and the Betrayal of Cyprus)", by Marios Adamides. As noted in WP:SELFPUBLISH, self-published books aren't considered WP:Reliable sources on Wikipedia, so we'll need to either find additional sources or remove the assertions that are only referenced by that book. The references were apparently added by the author of the book, so there's also an issue of WP:Conflict of interest, since the author is using his own work to support his assertions made about the coup.

Talk:Dina (musician)

message: "Despite being given the worst possible score, a dice throw of 1"
Assuming that all the dice have the same possible numbers, the lowest possible total score = the lowest number on each die x the total number of dice. So the only way 1 is the lowest possible score is if there's only 1 die, or if different dice have different possible numbers. It sounds like there's 1 die, but maybe one of you is more familiar with the scoring system. 173.66.2.216 (talk) 00:31, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Dinah Christie

message: I rv the date of birth as unconfirmed. The year (1942) appears to be supported by the GRO of England and Wales (https://search.findmypast.co.uk/record?id=BMD/B/1942/4/AZ/000201/085), but the birth was registered in the last quarter of 1942, which makes it almost inconceivable that she could have been born 29 December, two days before the registration closed, and still have had birth registered in the last quarter of 1942, during the war and bank holidays. Births even in late November (Hermione Baddeley, Cathleen Nesbitt) and early December (i.e. Liz Smith, Lynn Fontanne, Hermione Gingold) have all traditionally been registered in the first quarter of the next year.

replies: text: This is also the birth name reported in her BBC obituary () - the name was pronounced "mess" which she changed so as not to give newspaper critics any ammunition. However search sites don't find a birth entry for 1920-1921 for Dinah Nadyejda Mec, and do for Dinah Nadyejda Ginsburg, which is  the name reported on the IMDB. -- Arwel Parry (talk) 18:20, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The data on IMDb is based on the birth index. Sheridan's obits in The Times and The Guardian are reporting Ginsburg as her birth name also. Crisso (talk)  20:05, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  But this artice in The Guardian says it's Mec, as does the Telegraph. I would believe BFI - the newspapers may have gotten the wrong name from Wikipedia! Certainly IMDb is not reliable, as it is a crowsourced resource. Plus, the book that was cited in the article to "prove" that the name was Ginsburg appears to be a sham reference. I'm leaning toward "Mec", especially as Sheridan was quoted expaining the name change; but I don't think we can be certain yet.  Keep digging! -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:33, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Isn't the birth index definitive? Go to ancestry.com and search for the Ginsburg name. You'll get a match. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 20:04, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

text: See this. I agree that the birth index is at least persuasive. I am still troubled by the various important references to Mec, though. If you know how to cite the birth correctly, please go ahead. It was previously cited incorrectly in the article. -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:06, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  HOWEVER: her birth name is registered as Dinah N[adyejda]. Ginsburg at the GRO (General Registry Office) of Births in England and Wales (see http://www.findmypast.co.uk), which is official, and far more reliable than any of the sources above.

message: Margot's Age
IIRC isn't she 16, not 18 when they first meet?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tricksterson (talk • contribs) 18:26, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

message: Describing Rex as Margot's molester seems a bit much in that she very willingly enters into a relationship with him.  Also, describing her relationship with Albinus (one of literature's biggest suckers) as "mutually parasitic" is inaccurate in that the exploitation is all on her and Rex's part--whatever her age, Margot is not victimized by Albinus as Lolita was by Humbert Humbert.  Finally, the central relationship of this novel has little resemblance to that of Ada.  Van, the male protagonist of the latter, does sleep with some very young prostitutes, but the great love of his life, Ada, is only two years younger than he is, and the relationship is not depicted as parasitic on either of their parts.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.71.165 (talk) 01:27, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Victorian Greens

message: This article says that the Victorian Greens "they are often represented by a lead candidate, who is preselected by the party as the need arises". 
While undoubtedly they have eight upper house candidates who are in a lead role, it is not true that all eight of these candidates are in a stronger position than the strongest of the lower house candidates. And while they have one lead upper house candidate for the Senate, I would consider the position of "Leader of the Victorian Greens" to be related to state elections.
So since they haven't preselected a lead candidate for the coming state election, I'm gonna delete this. Ben Raue (Talk) 10:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: Yesterday I made a number of changes to this article—including the placement of "citation needed" templates. Today, two edits were made purporting to address problems I indicated (e.g. changing "effortlessly up" to "seamlessly", and "frequently collaborates" to "has regularly collaborated"). Please note that those changes do nothing to address the problems. This is a biography of a living person (BLP) and accordingly WP has to be extra careful about providing reliable sources for any claims made. Using adverbs (such as any example in the previous sentence) is subjective and an encyclopaedia must be able to support such claims. I won't be deleting the subjective claims but I'm sure that someone eventually will, so it would be an idea to find reliable sources to keep such material in the article.

thread_title: Confusing in Small Amounts

message: The Oklo natural fission reactor produced significant (i.e., non-microscopic) quantities of plutonium. This stands as an exception to the wording of this template. It should be re-worded so that the distinction need not be made. For example, whether a particular batch of plutonium was or was not artificially produced, was or was not produced in microscopic quantities, is completely irrelevant to whether plutonium has stable isotopes or not. It doesn't. It has some very long-lived radioactive isotopes which can be produced in large quantities by non-artificial means in very particular circumstances, but it is not stable. Nor should the template say "transuranic elements are never stable" because that is potentially untrue. No transuranic element is currently known to be stable, but there are several future candidates that could be.
Short of changes of the above nature, I am for the deletion or de-implementation of this template in the transuranic element article pages. If an article really needs this template in it, what it really needs is to be deleted entirely, because it has no significant information in it. --76.224.78.226 14:08, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Omaha-class cruiser

message: Per Conway's and other sources, the addition of twin 6" guns in gunhouses (not turrets, strictly speaking, as they were not armored), was an afterthought, a response to the criticism that the ships were undergunned compared to the Hawkins class.  Since they were not part of the original layout, you wouldn't really say they were a transition design.  Besides, the move from casements to turrets in the main battery dates back to the Monitor, and even as these ships were building, casements for secondary batteries were not part of significant future designs, with the exception of the second and third generation Japanese fast battleships and battlecruisers (never built).  These ships were archaic as launched.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zorro6204 (talk • contribs) 02:59, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
