message: "Max" has seemed to really stick, as he's moved around the NHL. Philly, Colorado, and now Boston, the name is used. His NHL page is listed as "Max", his Bruins page is listed as "Max", his twitter page is registered as "Max". "Max Talbot" returns near 14 million hits on Google, and "Maxime Talbot" returns less than 500,000 - while those aren't my favourite metrics to use, it does show the prevalence and popularity of the short-form. -Uncleben85 (talk) 07:31, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Surname

message: Concerning the person who beat Viguerie for the Vice President slot on the American Independent Party ticket, one source says he addressed the crowd in the late afternoon and another says he was awoken in Madison at 3AM and told about the results of the vote in person. I do not know how if he was physically there he would not have voted and been unaware of the outcome but left for Madison, so I think the way that both sources could be correct is that he addressed them by phone. As the one source that says he addressed them in the afternoon just says he addressed them, which if by phone does not negate the New York Times story that says he was awoken at 3AM. If it is felt that this is OP or too speculative, or if someone can find some source with better clarity. I would be glad to have someone make sense of these two sources.

thread_title:  Suggestion 

message: In the Wikipedia page on “Shva”, it is stated that the Shva Ga’ya makes a Shva into an ultrashort version of the following vowel (It is unclear if this only applies when the Shva precedes a gutteral; the example could be read as arbitrary, as this section is obscure). The last sentence of this section states that ”[t]his ‘strict application’ is found in Yemenite Hebrew”. It is unclear to what this “strict application” refers to; if it refers to the Shva Ga’ya, it does not apply to Yemenite Hebrew: In Yemenite Hebrew, a Shva is always colored a following gutteral’s vowel, totally regardless of whether it has a ga’ya next to it.
One of these two pages must be edited to make sure the information in each is correct. One of them is wrong. QwertyCTRL. (talk) 19:15, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Category talk:American people of European descent

message: Turkey - Asia (but UEFA and Eurovision); Cyprus - Asia (but EU, UEFA and Eurovision); Israel - Asia (but UEFA and Eurovision);
Simple really!
By the way, you could refer to the pages on European Mexicans, European Canadians and European Australians. Though Turks feature as European Mexicans, there are no Turks, Cypriots or Jews otherwise in these categories. No Faroese Americans? "Pourquoi?", we ask ourselves.
I removed all the cat references to this category because I could get nowhere with one editor who insisted that each '(euro-country) Americans' category had to be placed both in the the 'European Americans' category (which I previously helped to populate) and in the 'American people by ethnic or national origin' (where I had originally removed all the references--only to see this editor insert them all back in).  This was double level (duplicate) categorization which I thought Wiki rules did not like.  I also noticed that some other categories had no subcategorization by continent (such as 'lists of American people by ethnic or national origin') so I concluded that such 'continent' categories were not popular.  Finally, today, another editor removed two Asian countries from 'Asian American' category; this editor was equating 'Asian' with the race I suppose not with continent.  So I gave up. I suppose I was hasty in all this, but I got no support from various forus where I had asked for help.  What do you think?   I can help revert my work, if necessary.

message: It seems like every few months I check back here and a new user with no history has added 4 paragraphs to the marching band section droning on and on. It it's always extremely editorialized  and rarely contains anything of worth. This isn't the place to spread the "Marching Band is a sport" war you guys like to carry on. From a former band member, I get it. Personally I found it difficult but I wouldn't consider it a sport myself. Wherever you lie on the issue, keep the editorialized crap out of here. Marching band isn't even the largest or most successful organization at the school. It shouldn't be 75% of the article.

Talk:Lemuel C. Shepherd Jr.

message: Why was this linked to the Order of the Southern Cross and the ribbon for the highest grade of that used for this?  I haven't been able to find any connection between any Special Commemorative Diploma and the Order of the Southern Cross.  I've de-linked it and replaced the ribbon with the "no ribbon" graphic.
Ideally this should be moved out of the ribbon display (as it's a diploma & plaque, not a ribbon award) but I'm not sure I have the wikipedia formatting confidence to do so.  Perhaps move it to a section after the box's with other recognitions?  It could be listed thusly alongside his commendatory letter from the Joint Chiefs of Staff (dated 15 Sept. 1959).

message: I added this text
Its Earth equivalents are the eon Neoproterozoic era of the Proterozoic eon and the whole of the Phanerozoic eon. So, while animal life bloomed on Eath, Luna just died out.
Granted, this is not very encyclopedic, but it still carries out information (abundant animal life dates back from Phanerozoic) and the remark seems “OK enough”. Not NPOV, but give some soul to Wikipedia.
Input appreciated, feel free to remove it, but I would prefer you do with arguments.Reply to David Latapie 00:50, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Here is a link . Due to the lack of volcanic activity during the Copernican, the Moon's crust is collapsing onto the top of its now-solidified mantle. This is causing a very slight reduction in the Moon's radius and total volume, but not its mass. In that sense, the Moon is not entirely geologically dead, but it is volcanically dead, and perhaps we could use that term instead. The Mysterious El Willstro (talk) 02:25, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Mani Peninsula

message: The article says: "Today a narrow and winding road extends down the west coast from Kalamata to Areopoli, but on the east coast there is no substantial road south of Gytheio.".
I think that this is missleading.  While there is no paved road from Gytheio to Koroni, there is a fine (if narrow and twisting) paved road from Areopolis across the penninsula to Koroni, down the east coast, and back up the west coast back up to Areopolis. [I know, I've driven it.] So most of the east coast has at least a paved road. Possibly this is an issue of what "substantial" means?  [Given that area, I'd personally think "paved" qualifies as substantial.] Nahaj 00:50, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
