Talk:Assam silk

message: Hey, fellow Wikipedians- 
I'm cutting some information about Sualkuchi in the "Silk industry of Sualkuchi" section. There's a *lot* of information about the town of Sualkuchi there that has nothing to do with sericulture-- while it's interesting and important information, it'd be better placed in Sualkuchi than in the article on Assam silk. 
Cheers,

Talk:Block booking

message: I have failed this because, while decently-referenced and coherently written, it just isn't comprehensive enough.
The article is basically two things: an explanation of the practice and a history of the legal wranglings around it. It is in that latter that we could know more.
*What was the studios' defense/rationalization of this (besides their own profits, of course)? Today the cable companies defend themselves against á la carte by claiming that that model makes it possible for them to carry smaller niche-oriented channels which some communities deeply appreciate but which wouldn't survive long (they claim) in a more even-handed market? Did the studios make a similar claim?
*Who spoke up against this during the 1920s and '30s? There certainly had to be some voices who did. The Poverty Row studios certainly couldn't have been happy with this situation ... did they make any organized efforts to challenge it?
*Finally, I would ask what the consequences were, except that the article on the Supreme Court case discusses that. We're talking about something that had a profound effect on American cinema — a major nail in the coffin of the studio system. It should be discussed here in even more detail.
Researching this may be a project but there are any number of histories of Hollywood that go into it. When it's been sufficiently expanded, it can be renominated. Daniel Case 21:02, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The source attached to these statements doesn't seem to talk about these things at all, and instead talks about the 18th century. I've also found evidence that salt certificates were used to pay merchants in the 900s, but not in the 700s. If anyone could help clarify this, it would be helpful. 
> In the year 758 the government official Liu Yan had convinced the imperial government to actively enforce its salt monopoly again. This was known as the Zhece policy. Under the Zhece policy Chinese merchants were paid in salt certificates in exchange for supplying the frontier armies directly as opposed to transporting government provisions to them.

Talk:Mary Bastian

message: For starters I doubt the reliability of citations from UTHR, especially when Jaffna was under influence of the LTTE and the LTTE intimidated all opposing human rights and political groups. Amnesty international and other groups were involved in Sri Lanka at the time, and if this individual is notable enough to have an article about him on Wikipedia, I doubt his death/murder will have escaped all of their many reports of the time.
And even if we use the UTHR document, it states,
::This brings to mind two killings attributed to the Sri Lankan    forces in late 1984, in which the Christian Church was intimately concerned.    These were the killings of the Roman Catholic clergyman Fr. Mary Bastian, and    of Rev. George Jeyarajasingam of the Methodist Church, both in the Mannar District.
That is far, far from been good enough to be used as a source for such a statement on Wikipedia. So for now, I'll leave the  tag on, in hopes that a better citation is added. --snowolfD4(  talk /  @ ) 17:30, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

=== Location: "lying approximately 300 kilometer north-west of Lhasa in central Tibet" ===
Maybe this sentence is confusing with the Tanggula mountains located about 400km N of Lhasa.

Last name of Meg and Petey in the text of the play is spelled "Boles." First names of both Goldberg and McCann in the text of the play are conflicting and dubious.  They refer to one another by more than one first name or nicknames, and it is not entirely certain what their first names are.

thread_title: needs major rewrite

message: I removed the following sentence, which was added a day ago:
: Missile wings control about 150 silos. Each wing may be organized into up to 15 squadrons which would control 10 silos each.
::
The number of missiles controlled is generally true for today's Minuteman missile wings, but the article is about wings assigned to Strategic Air Command, not today's wings.  That number varies from 0 to 200 (early missiles were not installed in silos) and includes Snark, Titan and Atlas missiles.  Particularly in view of the remainer of the quote, I doubt this web site can be regarded as a reliable source.  I know of no missile wing that had more than 4 operational squadrons. (see  for Strategic Missile Wings and their operational components).  Even if the maintenance squadrons and the squadrons assigned to the wing's combat support group (if it had one), and the few wings with missile security groups were added on (and none of those "controll[ed] 10 silos") it would be hard to get over 12 squadrons in the largest wing.  --Lineagegeek (talk) 17:07, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

message: I removed an unsourced entry that said the band broke up earlier this year. While one of the MySpace pages claiming to be the band does say there are no plans for this year, and that Hauke is 'recovering from 20 years of "misunderstandings"', there is no indication that the band has broken up, only "story to be continued". Another profile doesn't say anything about a breakup either. The Van Richter bio hasn't been updated in a while, but it doesn't mention their Traumatized album either, so I wouldn't take that to be evidence of anything one way or the other.

message: I've done a total overhaul of this. When I arrived (because it was being WP:AFDed), the content was clearly a WP:COPYVIO for the most part, a copy-paste of their official page at Van Richter Records.  I've based the overhaul on the then-better-developed w:de:Girls Under Glass article, plus additional sources, and the result is now better than the German one.  There's still a lot of stuff that needs citations, but none of it appears to be controversial claims, and most of it can be found, bit by bit, in the sources already cited. It's just annoying to the reader (and a tremendous amount of editorial work – even doing the rewrite so far took over 10 hours) to pepper a simple sentence with 7 citations for factoids no one's going to challenge anyway.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  01:34, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Crown lengthening

message: :Crown lengthening procedures aim to achieve biologic width by reducing bone to desired levels and in most instances reducing the soft tissue as well, usually with a 1mm submarginal incision.
:The decision as whether or not to incise the gingiva will depend on:
:- Pocket depth. In areas of deeper pockets (>4) 
:- Gingival Recession. (incision is already done for you)
:- Width of Keratinized tissue
:- Esthetic limitations.
:The Second incision is a sulcular incision that extends to the outer M/D line angle of last tooth. e.g. If performing Crown Lengthening on #13, #14 then the incision should extend from Mesial line angle of #12 to the Distal line of #15.
:The flap is reflected to reveal the bone. After complete removal of granulation tissue, a graduated periodontal probe is used to check the distance from the margin of the restoration to the crest of the alveolar bone. Bone is removed from around the tooth(s) and normal bony architecture is established.
:This includes removal of any remainder ledges or sharp edges.
:After this is completed simple flap suturing is done with either interrupted or continuous sutures.
:The distance required from the margin of the restoration to the bone level will depend on whether the tooth will be crowned or not. The Basic principle of biologic width is that you need Approx. 2 mm of connective tissue and epithelial attachment and 1mm for the gingival sulcus. So if the tooth in question is not being crowned you will only need 3mm below the restoration. However, if that tooth will need a crown later you should leave enough space for the future location of your finish line (about 4-5 mm total under the restoration or build up).

So you thought that my changing "comedian" to "badchan" was wrong; maybe you're right. But why go and do a complete reversion of "all" my changes? The correct thing to do is to edit out what you think is improper and leave the good. Reversion should be used as a last resort, not as a way to vent anger.
Now to the question at hand; you're right that he wasn't exactly a "Badchan", but "Comedian" isn't either correct; it imparts the wrong information. We need to find something more factual. I looked up all synonyms of "Comedian" and I think that "Jester" which you originally used is the most appropriate.
