message: I know it's nothing major, but . . .
In the first paragraph of the "Design and construction" section, the last sentence talks about how the project title is sometimes used both singularly and plurally.  The word "structure" in that sentence strongly implies 'singularly' when it's obvious that the project consists of several structures.  I think a more accurate word would be "complex" -- it also seems to give a smoother read of the sentence.
What do all of you think?

thread_title:  "popular bestselling" 

message: Removing as hype.  Example why:
:Stel Pavlou is a genre-bender… Gene is a powerful read. The Observer
The actual context:
:Stel Pavlou  is a real genre-bender. The scriptwriter for Samuel L Jackson's movie, The 51st State , Pavlou's first novel, Decipher was half-crime, half Michael Crichton. Gene is pretty much uncategorisable although it has epic pretensions ... When I read the plot synopsis on the back cover, it sounded to me dangerously like an out-take from Ghostbusters or some such comic nonsense. But Pavlou's fast-paced storytelling carried me along so I didn't think too much about the loopiness of the plot. Some of the memories about ancient battles read a bit hokily but taken on its own terms, Gene is a powerful read. It won't be to everyone's taste but Pavlou certainly deserves an A for ambition.
With such cherry-picking going on, I very much doubt the other reviews are neutrally reported. Gordonofcartoon (talk) 03:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Talk:The Left Banke

message: http://www.thevillager.com/villager_322/jeffwinfield.html
Jeff Winnfield's death gives us a moment to reflect on what a wonderful and underrated band the Left Banke were.  I am not usualy a fan of classical influence in rock (because so many of its practicioners use it in a way that is often tedious, bloated, and/or pretentious), but The Left Banke are one huge exception.  They proved that it can be done: they did it right--always with a subtle understement and terrific songwriting, tied with a good feel.  In my humble opinion, they used classical influence better than anyone in rock, ever.  Jeff Winnfield will be missed. Garagepunk66 (talk) 09:37, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

*some mention of "temperature of maximum density", which seems to be of interest to researchers
*some mention of how the concentration of a solution affects the solution/solvent's maximum density

Talk:Battle of Gamenario

message: I’m removing the article from :Category:Battles involving the Lombards on the basis that readers will expect it to cover battles involving the Lombards (or Langobards), rather than battles involving adherents to the Lombard League—or indeed battles involving Lombardy or Lombards in the sense of :category:People from Lombardy. On the other hand I think it probably would be useful to have a :Category:Battles involving the Lombard League and have accordingly red-linked it in the article. I’ll leave its creation, however, to one of the followers of medieval military history. —Ian Spackman 08:26, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: This is a good question -- Luangpho Ajahn (หลวงพ่ออาจาร) is a title, but I don't know about "Tala". This confusion extends to the names of several other monks, whose titles are often confused for names; this apparent by how they are sometimes sorted, for example, Theravada monks whose names have been merged with the title "Phra" (พระ), such as Phrabhavanaviriyakhun. But I must admit that this is mostly deductive reasoning on my part. Perhaps there is some Thai convention that I am completely unaware of. (Please let me know.)

message: This appears to be copied-and-pasted from http://marcos-valle.co.tv/ which raises a few questions:
* Does the original author give permission for it to be used in wikipedia?
* There's some unverified stuff such as the rather misguided rant about beatboxing (beatboxing is a specific form of vocal percussion, no-one's claiming that beatboxers or Marcos invented the idea of imitating percussion)
* The tone isn't right for a wikipedia article, it's too self-promotional
* There are no sources cited and we can't establish notability. I don't know this artist - if someone can add citations which demonstrate the notability, that would be helpful.

Talk:Château de Montségur

message: The current castle was made as a garnison castle on the border with the kingdom of Aragon after the area became a part of the kingdom of France. There should be a mention of this in the history section somewhere, what do you think? Other similar castles include Queribus or Peyrepertuse.
Montsegur and Queribus castles have been built after the Cathars fall and used these places. When the cathars were there the castle might had been very different ( they lived there with women, religious people, maybe children?) ... After this, the castles have only been built for military garisons.
The kingdom of Aragon had sided with the Cathars and the new castles were (re)built to enforce the border after the treaty of Corbeil.
----
The article says that the present Castle of Montsegur, or Montsegur 3, bears no relation to the Cathar building it was built over. Maybe. But that doesn't account for the fact that as castles go its a very wierd construction, medieval or not. It actually seems to violate every law of Medieval defense - only one tower, main gate huge & unfortified. Why is this? Can anyone explain? ThePeg 21:57, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:The Miracle (play)

message: Some of the information that has been put in in good faith is not correct. 
Maria Carmi alternated with Lady Diana Manners in the Broadway production at the Century Theater in New York in 1924.
The following is a clip from the New York Times, January 24, 1924.
:Maria Carmi, known also as the Principessa Matchabelli, played the rôle of the Madonna in "The Miracle" for the first time last night at the Century Theatre and achieved an instantaneous success. An audience that filled the theatre, many of the members of which were viewing the production for the second time, found her interpretation of the rôle fully as satisfying as that of Lady Diana Manners, although differing sharply in detail.
:Instead of standing during the forty-two minutes that precedes the coming to life of the Madonna, Maria Carmi is seated on a throne. The coming to life of the statue becomes a formal and detailed ceremony, and the feeling of statue come to life is never lost at any time during the performance. While presenting a graceful figure, the actress nevertheless manages to retain something of the ethereal and spiritual.
:Maria Carmi will play the rôle again tomorrow night, at which time Lady Diana Manners will be seen for the first time as the Nun, hitherto played by Rosamond Pinchot. This arrangement will be repeated at the matinee on Saturday, and at the night performance Lady Diana will again play the Madonna, with Miss Pinchot once more as the Nun.
:Next week Maria Carmi will play the Madonna on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights and at the Saturday matinee, with Lady Diana in the rô1e at the other performances. Miss Pinchot will be seen as the Nun except on Wednesday night and Saturday afternoon, when Lady Diana will have the part.
  (link to archive article requires free login password)
Also the Nun was a different character played by Rosamond Pinchot. One reason that it appears that Maria Carmi did not play the role is that the Internet Broadway Database only gives the credits for the opening night, thus Diana Manners. http://www.ibdb.com/production.asp?ID=9459 Chris 21:59, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
