Talk:Look and Read

message: I've just restored the link (using Wayback Machine) to the fan site which is was probably the best web source on the programme.  According to this page the site is coming back soon.

thread_title: Look and Read fan site

message: Hi, I was wondering if there would be enough interest in Look and Read topics for a WikiProject to be created. The few articles that exist on the series are pretty bad, and inconsistent in how they are written, and in quality. I could go it alone, but was wondering if anyone was interested in helping. Howdoyouturnthison (talk) 11:09, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Rather sadly, I'm not sure if there is enough interest for such a wikiproject despite the fact the programme must be one of the most widely watched programmes in UK television, given that practically every child who has grown up in the country over at least the last 30 years has probably seen it.  Quite a few of the articles were written by me and I apologise for the writing.  I believe I wrote them pretty quickly and intended to edit them down after (Admittedly I didn't recall that I started this article until I looked at its history!).  I realise now that this was a pretty poor method.  I'd say the main problem with the ones I edited is how poorly sourced they tend to be (when I started them I obviously didn't really get the importance of that).  Going through the individual series I tried to start at the beginning and work through them.  This turned out to be a TERRIBLE idea.  At first, I should've stuck to the serials with which I was familiar before going back to the early ones.  The two serials I managed to do before realising this are really poorly laid out and once again, very poorly sourced. (I believe I used the fansites and the original pamphlets, which used to be available for download from lookandread.myby.co.uk but I can't seem to be on the new site.)  I shall certainly keep an eye out for what you are doing and assist if I can.--Thetriangleguy (talk) 13:57, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Porto Cathedral

message: The last paragraph of the article says this:  "During the 5 October 1910 revolution, the republican dissident Manuel Buiça fought the young king Manuel II of Portugal in the Gothic cloisters on the south side of the cathedral, in a prearranged Falcata duel. The king was saved when the bishop, Johãn Kenobi, dislodged a brick from the ambulatory roof to fall on his attacker's head, resulting in concussion. Buiça was then dropped into the cloister well and Manuel fled to British-ruled Gibraltar on the royal yacht, Amélia IV, the next day."  What is this talking about?  Manuel Buiça died in 1908.

Talk:Super Bock Arena

message: The page in English is very incomplete. The building was built in the site of a former exhibition pavilion called Palácio de Cristal (Crystal Palace). The Palacio de Cristal was designed by an English architect, using glass, iron and granite (typical from Oporto). It had London's Crystal Palace as inspiration. The former Crystal Palace was demolished so as to build this sports and events pavilion.
Secondly, this pavilion has been used for indoor sports as well as fairs.
It is quite important to mention that for many years, the most popular indoor sport in Portugal was rink hockey. Rink hockey is little known outside the 5 countries that best play this sport: Spain, Argentina, Portugal, Italy and Switzerland, but in Portugal was very popular. It is still, albeit a little less.
Rink Hockey was originally created in England as an alternative for ice hockey. It was brought to Portugal by English expats. England yet won two world titles in this sport. Then the popularity of this sport decreased dramatically in England but increased in ice lacking southern Europe.
Rosa Mota pavilion was used for a rink hockey world championship, while Lisdon's Carlos Lopes pavilion was used for another one or two.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.214.215.35 (talk) 00:14, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Frederick August I, Duke of Oldenburg

message: #There was never any duchy (fief) or dukedom (title) called "Holstein-Oldenburg"
#Holstein-Gottorp duchy had already been ceded to Denmark by Tsar Paul's mother, Catherine the Great, in the 1767 Treaty of Denmark. But Paul was still a minor then, so he merely confirmed that cession at his mother's command in 1773, after attaining his majority
#Denmark did not then mediatize Holstein-Gottorp, since that implies that some Duke of HG retained some seigneurial rights over it, under new Danish sovereignty. In fact, the former Gottorp ducal princes remained absent from Holstein in their domains in Russia, Sweden and Oldenburg, retaining no lands or rights in Holstein, other than rights of reversion in caase of the complete extinction of the Danish male line. The Danish kings simply continued ruling Holstein-Gottorp directly as they had since 1767, and none of the cadet Schleswig-Holstein dukelings acquired any jurisdiction or lands there
#No new "Schleswig-Holstein" entity was created. Schleswig and Holstein continued in the union they had been in since 1403 and which had been recognized as indissoluble by Christian I since 1460. The duchies at times had different overlords, but their right to be treated as a joint entity and to have their shared privileges respected continued intact. The struggles between the Danish kings and Holstein dukes had been over suzerainty, property, troops and revenues, not primarily over severing the duchies or imposing differing laws in them
#Denmark gave Russia the counties of Oldenburg and Delmenhorst -- they were not duchies or a duchy
#Paul did not make the combined counties a duchy -- he deeded them over to his agnate, Friedrich-August of Holstein-Gottorp(-Eutin), and they were then erected into a duchy by the Holy Roman Emperor in 1774, and that duchy was officially conferred upon the Eutin branch in 1777.
#The duchy created in 1774 was named "Oldenburg" not "Oldenburg-Holstein". But it was attached to the ducal Reichsstand in the Reichstag that had previously been attached to the duchy of Holstein-Gottorp. By so doing, the Emperor did not need to create a new Reichsstand in the Reichstag's College of Princes, which would have required the prior approval of the other princes in that College

* History of the Westchester-Putnam Council states the various mergers of the councils preceding its formation. The history can be elaborated on.

thread_title: Proposed merge

message: Having gone through this article, I must say I'm rather surprised to see it is a featured list. 
That is because it is absolutely riddled with white space (at least it is on my screen). From the 'Contents' table to 'See also', there is nothing but a bit of prose, tables, book covers, photographs and acres of white space. I hope it is only me who can see it.
Looking at the 'Books' table, I would say that a repeat of the information at the top of said table about halfway down might be a good idea. 
e.g. If one is looking at something in the sixties, one would not have to continually go back to see which column is which, regarding the 'UK publisher' or who that publisher is/was.
What do other editors think?
RASAM (talk) 15:11, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what white space you are referring to. I don't see excessive white space under the 'Contents' table and there is no 'See also' section. Could you point out one or two specific examples of the white space you're referring to? Regarding your second point, there isn't a 'Books' table, so I assume you mean the 'Novels' table. As it stands now, it can be sorted by any column such as year of US publication or series, so none of the rows are always halfway down the list. In any case, I think the table is fine as it is now, since the columns are in a logical order. Miles26 (talk) 06:08, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

text: Thanks for clarifying. I don't see those areas of white space you describe when viewing the article with my usual web browser window. The photographs and covers appear to the right of the tables. I think what might be happening is that you are viewing the page in a narrow web browser window, so the images are getting pushed above the table. Do you still see the large white areas if you view the article in a wider browser window?I think it would be confusing to repeat the headings halfway down the table. It might look like there were two different tables or that there was some meaningful distinction between the top and bottom halves. How about instead repeating the header as the final row at the bottom of the table? Miles26 (talk) 22:29, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Muhammad the Reformer

message: I agree with Zora and Gren said on Talk:Muhammad. The fatal flaw of the "reformer" stuff is that it equates Islam as we know it today is equivalent to the Islam of Muhammad and his followers. This idea is so absurd that not even the ulema will probably agree to it. Try to think about like this. Today there are Shias and Sunnis; were there Shias and Sunnis in Muhammad's time? No. There are four Sunni schools of jurisprudence (there used to be more, but some became extinct). Were there all the four schools in the seventh-century Hijaz? No. Another problem with calling Muhammad a "reformer" is what he could "reform". He lived in the seventh-century Hijaz, and he could only reform the pre-Islmic society of Hijaz. But what do we know about that society? Close to nothing. There are some writings of Muslim historians, there are modern attempts at reconstructing this society, but there isn't much consensus on how pre-Islamic Arabia looked like. Furthermore, we do not know much how Mecca, Medina, and the surrounding areas changed in Muhammad's lifetime. The assumption is made that all the stuff about slavery, charity etc. happened within those several years when Muhammad held the power first in Medina and then in Mecca, but no evidence is provided to support this view.
