Talk:Military history of the Neo-Assyrian Empire

message: I have taken on Military history of the Neo-Assyrian Empire for review under the Good Article criteria, as nominated on the Good article candidates page by Tourskin. You'll be pleased to hear that the article meets none of the quick-fail criteria, so I will shortly be conducting an in-depth review and will post the results below.
Where an article is not an outright pass, but requires relatively minor additional work to be brought up to GA standard, I will normally place it on hold - meaning that editors have around a week to address any issues raised. As a precaution to prevent failure by default should this occur, if editors are likely to be unavailable over the next ten days or so, feel free to leave a message on my talk page so we can arrange a more convenient time for review. Regards, EyeSereneTALK 15:54, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ibid 

message: Hi. I'm new to this, so have mercy or whatever.
I notice that there is a picture on the top right of an archer on a horse that appears also under the Cavalry section. The caption in the latter says that the rider is "An Assyrian Cavalry Archer, most likely a King; the robes and the perfect handling of his horse testify to his supreme position." The former image links to the Dutch Wiki claiming that the rider is "Assurbanipal riding and hunting (relief carving from the north palace of Nineveh, ca. 640 BC, now at the British Museum - London)".
Maybe this info should be reconciled?

message: Excuse me, but doesn't the weapons section appear rather badly-made?
Apart from offering no real information, it's unappealing in terms of language, and downright atrocious as far as spelling goes.
Could it be replaced by something more informative, or deleted altogether? Just fixing the spelling errors won't do it, I think.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shrugging khan (talk • contribs) 20:32, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: Sundar: I added back the "the most respected linguist of his generation" phrase. To become a Corresponding Fellow of the prestigious Royal Soceity of Edinburgh, and an honorary member of the Linguistic Society of America is a big deal indeed.

replies: text: I don't disagee with what I believe to be your intention; specifically, to emphasize the seminal nature of Professor Krishnamurti's work in the field of Dravidian linguistics. I'd just rather we not resort, with all due respect, to hyperbole. The late Professor Krishnamurti doesn't need our effusive praise- I don't think that's wikipedia's mission statement and even if it was, I believe his publications speak volumes more (no pun intended) towards such an end than any of us could anyways. Rather, let's focus on having the ridiculous "stub class", "low importance" tags dissociated from the article. This is one of the better articles on Indian linguistics generally, and among the best articles on linguists from the subcontinent, specifically (in the interest of full disclosure, I contributed, very marginally, with some cosmetic changes and "wikification". The substantiative work required in writing this article is beyond the scope of my understanding. And even though I'm addicted to wikipedia, I'm not a linguist.) Again, I say this because I feel a sense of urgency to have this scholar's story AND his work available for an audience that may not otherwise have such an opportunity...people like me. Thanks.

message: Should we keep the following in the template, as they are part of Rangers' culture and lore: George Kalinsky, Knicks-Rangers Finals Series of 1994, Matteau!! Matteau!! Matteau!! All three of them were deleted? -- SNIyer12, (talk), 15:32, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The point of the template is not to highlight every single catch phrase, piece of trivia or minor historical note, but to capture major topics.  I axed a bunch because they were duplicate links - the Knicks-Rangers "final" is not notable, and MSG is already linked.  "Matteau!! Matteau!! Matteau!!" is meaningless to anyone not intimately familiar with it's context, and is undoubtedly already mentioned in other linked articles - namely History and the 1993-94 Rangers season/1994 Stanley Cup Playoffs articles.  If Rose is that notable, then link him as Howie Rose, easter eggs are generally considered bad.  I have no idea if Kalinsky is so notable as to belong in the template, but if so, then I'd say re-add him as well. Resolute 16:52, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

"In the late 19th to early 20th century, Chinese men in Mauritius married Indian women due to both a lack of Chinese women and higher numbers of Indian women on the island.[9][10] At first the prospect of relations with Indian women was unappealing to the original all male Chinese migrants yet they eventually had to establish sexual unions with Indian women since there were no Chinese women coming."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.15.24.148 (talk) 02:16, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas are commonly mistaken as twin cities due to their similar names and confusion about which one is the central city. Kansas City, Kansas is a inner suburb (sometimes called "streetcar suburb") of the older and much more populous Kansas City, Missouri. KCK was founded when urban growth from Missouri spilled over the state line into Kansas. KCK is named after its more famous counterpart.

Talk:Altimont Butler

message: My revert does the following:
*1.  Puts links to other pages which were removed back in.
*2.  Puts references which were removed back in.
*3.  Removed subjective judgements.  These included, "a conservative striker", "extreme passion for the game", "Due *to his sharp football skills and dribbling techniques", and "tenacious spirit and kind personality".
*4.  Removed unreferenced claims such as "his prowess in football is a legacy from Altimond Butler, his father", "Butler’s father has been his motivation for starting a career in football" and "Butler endeavored to become one of the most talented players on the Jamaica Football team", 
*5.  Corrected grammer errors such as 3yrs (three years) and  Between1985 (missing space).
*6.  Clarified vague statements where possible.  These include "he participated in the school boys’ football championships."  Does that mean that his school team won several football championships?  Or "By age 15, he played in the President’s Cup, Minor League and Sid Bartlett League".  What are these? And, "he caught the attention of L'Etoile" (is L'Etoile a person or team?)

I see that allmusic was used as a reference to this sentence, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that Eric Earley also plays the keyboards, while Marty Marquis does not.
