Talk:Myanmar Muslims

message: :I cannot accept to put this BURMESE MUSLIM or MYANMAR MUSLIM under Islam in Burma. I feel that ETHNIC CLEANSING of BURMESE MUSLIMS is the work of BSPP/SlLORC/SPDC and BURMESE BUDDHIST CHAUVINISTS.
Now the great Myanmar Wiki editors are treating us the same way. 
If Wikipedia agree or approve that kind of ETHNIC CLEANSING, I will have to leave this newfound job of voluntary contribution of articles to you.
They could accept Panthay and Malay Myanmar Muslims but not the Burmese Muslims as ETHNIC MINORITY GROUP.
It is amusing to read the funny and childish discussions by some editors that to use Burmese is an insult like N word. (May be they need to please their political masters. If not they would be arrested again! We all Burmese knew that Myanmar is associated with SLORC/SPDC and most of the opposition is using Burma as a sign of resistance. Calling Burma is not an insult to anyone. If so, try to avoid using themselves Bama/Bamar/Burmese. May be start to use Myanmarese? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Darz kkg (talk • contribs) 14:15, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:An Act of Terror

message: I think it's great that someone started this article, but it needs serious expansion, rewriting and sources. Firstly, to compare André Brink with Wilbur Smith is like comparing Nadine Gordimer to Stephanie Meyer. Brink is an achieved author who has won many literary awards for his writing (both in South Africa and internationally), and he forms part of canonized South African literature. The same cannot be said about Smith, who, although he does a lot of research for his books, writes popular fiction. This is either way not something one can just say because a scene in Brink's book reminds of a scene in Smith's book.
I therefore think the article should either be expanded as soon as possible (if possible, since finding sources on these kinds of books are hard), or should be shortened. Rather that than it being some silly personal impression. Johannes Jaar (talk) 11:21, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

message: What's behind the title An Infamous Army, or is that non-encyc? Valetude (talk) 18:27, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a mistake on Heyer's part. On 8 May 1815, when he had just arrived in the Netherlands from the Vienna Conference to take command, Wellington wrote that 'They have given me an infamous army.' He was mainly complaining about the Dutch-Belgian and German contingents and the lack of reliable veteran British units (https://www.jstor.org/stable/44222534?seq=1), and what he wanted to build up his force was some of his old Peninsular regiments. London, appreciating the now-or-never urgency, sent him the troops he asked for and more. He got the Guards, crack infantry of the line like Colborne's 52nd, the Household Cavalry, the best Light Dragoons and Hussars and so on, and he was pretty happy with the Anglo-Allied army he led at Waterloo. His all-too-quotable remark in early May, six weeks before the battle, has often been taken out of context. (Like his 'scum of the earth' remark, which referred to the fact that, in a volunteer army, you would always find men who signed up to get out of some sort of trouble -- either with the law or with a girl they'd got pregnant -- and no-goods who signed up for the gin ration. Considering which, he said, it was remarkable 'what fine fellows we make of them.') Khamba Tendal (talk) 19:22, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

One Zimabwean/American artist (the protege of Alicia Keys and her producer--listed as Andra (musician), and one very popular artist from Romania.

Talk:Copperbelt

message: The normal spelling is one word, whether referring to the name of the province specifically or to the mining area in general. You never see it as two words in the Copperbelt towns. Google searches throw up 4 times as many pages for 'Copperbelt' as 'Copper Belt' and most of the latter pages refer to belts made of copper or copper mining areas in Vermont and Arizona. 
I tried to rename the page to 'Copperbelt' but someone has already redirected a page of that name to this one and I can't do it. Can an administrator please change it and get rid of "Copper Belt" which does not apply to Zambia.Rexparry sydney 07:15, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Kootenay

message: Just a note that, while certainly the name-origin and the fact that the area(s) in question were/are part of the traditional territory of the Ktunaxa, the particlar Kootenai (tribe) link is to the US-side band organization; there is at present (not yet anyway...I've been busy elsewhere]] article/stub on Ktunaxa as a people, as the page in question is, as said, a tribal organization.  The Ktunaxa Kinbasket Tribal Council, which I think I made the stub for, is the tribal council for the Ktunaxa, and actually includes the US bands, including the one described/focused on in Kootenai (tribe); but ultimately, when it's made, the primary link here should be simply Ktunaxa; I'll try and get to it later tonight unless someone else would care to oblige (based on content at Secwepemc, St'at'imc, Nlaka'pamux etc.)Skookum1 23:19, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Programmed instruction

message: 'The difference between programmed instruction (PI) and programmed learning (PL) is that PI is intended to modify behavior, whereas PL is used for teaching facts and skills'
This statement doesn't make sense. 
Milktoast 07:17, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The text of this article is not correct, because the sources of the time were not consulted. The article programmed learning now gives a correct and sourced account. The two terms "programmed instruction" and "programmed learning" refer to the same phenomenon, and should be dealt with together. Although Skinner was the most prominent personality, he was not the originator of the idea. He was the originator of his own version of programmed learning, which was sometimes called "linear programming". Macdonald-ross (talk) 14:30, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Title 

message: I have transferred the worthwhile parts of this page (which were few) to programmed learning. As evidenced there, there is no demarcation between programmed learning and programmed training, and the terms were and are used interchangeably.

message: Original Creation: due simply to the fact that there was no existing page, and a desire to see some starting groundwork laid down. Feel free to edit, add, and the like. Localized spelling and grammar should follow Canadian guidelines (colour as opposed to color).
The article as it stands should be classified as a stub. Also, other than personal experience, my only sources are a Summit Pacific College - issued student handbook and the website, listed under external links. I have no idea how to cite the handbook, and I did not know whether or not to list the website as a source since it was already in the "External Links" heading (redundancy).
I have tried to be as neutral as possible when writing this article. If you feel this article expresses bias in any way, please feel free to change the article in such a way as to preserve the information, but create neutrality.
This is my first Wikipedia article, so please feel free to tear this article apart - I rather welcome it, knowing that my first article may well include many flaws.

This is the first real article I've made major changes and additions to. Please don't hesitate to fix any errors or communicate to me how I can do better at this work. As the previous person wrote, I am not well versed in citing things on Wikipedia. My sources have come also from student handbooks, the colleges website, and conversations with senior staff at the school.
I hoping this page can be maintained and kept long after my time here.

Talk:Catriona Grant

message: Observing that the notability template has been in place over 18 months with no substantial revisions to this article, I suggest it be deleted for failing to demonstrate notability.
I have checked the sources cited and Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Reference 1-3 are not current on the web. Reference 4 quotes Ms Grant as a protestor but is otherwise substantially about other people. Reference 5 makes no mention of Ms Grant. References 6 and 7 appear to be blog posts by the subject. Reference 8 mentions Grant in passing alongside a large number of other people, again in a piece that is substantially not about her. Being a witness at Tommy Sheridan's trials could be usefully merged instead into the articles about the trials themselves.
In addition the creator of the article, ms medusa, seems to have a substantial overlap with Ms Grant's own interest and topics of preoccupation, suggesting the possibility this article may have been initiated by none other than the subject herself.

:They are always asked by the experts why they want to sell their possession.

replies: text: No, Pigin English is talking about Entlish pidgin languages throughout Africa. Cameroonian Pidgin English is but one example of a broader category. Instead, I've proposed that Pigin English be merged into Pidgin. See Talk:Pidgin for details. — BrianSmithson 08:13, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what to do with it.  When I previously proposed that, the only response I got at Talk:Pidgin#Suggest merging Pigin English into Pidgin was negative.  So I decided to try this, since the page had more content specific to Cameroon than to any other single country.  Hmmm, I see there is more discussion there now.  User:Bikeable's idea of an article on West African Pidgin English sounds like a good thing for someone other than me to write. Cardamon 09:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just coming across this now. The Pidgin article appears to deal with the general linguistic category, and as such would IMO best stay as is. WRT the English Pidgins, a good case could be made to organize them better. A case could be made to merge the Cameroonian and Nigerian Pidgin articles if they are close enough to consider together as West African Pidgin English (with ref to any differences, of course in the new article). This is commonly the case with the vast majority of crossborder African languages - you don't have separate articles for Hausa in Nigeria, Niger and Ghana for instance. I'm not familiar enough with the pidgin category to say much about English pidgins more generally and whether we might possibly be looking at 3 levels of articles: 1) pidgin in general; 2) English pidgins worldwide; 3) West African pidgin, or specifically Nigerian & Cameroonian pidgins. --A12n 20:47, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would say that all the Pidgin English articles should be combined under the single 'Pidgin English' header.  It should remain separate from the 'Pidgin' article as it does not refer directly to the same thing.  It's easier for someone searching for one or the other if they don't have to wade through material that isn't of interest.  They can always click-through if they want to know more. --Deke42 18:40, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
