Talk:Era (geology)

message: My understanding is that the most recent eras are Holocene (now) and Pleistocene. Why aren’t they listed here? --MadScientistX11 (talk) 21:14, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The Pleistocene and Holocene are epochs, not eras. They are in the Quaternary period of the Cainozoic era. DuncanHill (talk) 21:24, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for clearing that up. BTW, since I left that comment I found this page: Geologic_time_scale  IMO, that page covers everything in this page and much, much more and has 41 references where as this one has 0. I don't really see the point of having this page when the other page covers the same material and does it so much better. My recommendation would be to nominate this page for deletion. Do you agree? --MadScientistX11 (talk) 22:19, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: No I don't agree. This article does need references, but I think it makes sense to have articles about the various subdivisions of geological time, and the terms used in it, so that we can link to era, epoch, period, etc as necessary. DuncanHill (talk) 08:54, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: But eras are covered very well in Geologic_time_scale, IMO far better than in this article. Even if this was a good article I would advocate merging it into the Geologic_time_scale article for consistency because it makes sense to describe the difference between an Era. Eon, and Period, perhaps having a subsection in  Geologic_time_scale on eras that then pointed to this article for details. But since I don't see anything in this article that isn't already covered (and covered much better) in Geologic_time_scale I think deletion makes sense.  We can always create a synonym for eras that points to the time scale article (or to the Terminology section in that article which explains Eras). As a user when I look something up and the first place on Wikipedia I get pointed to is some very incomplete poorly referenced article (which is what happened to me when I was trying to understand some terminology in a journal article) it gives me a very bad impression of the quality of the encyclopedia. Unless you have a better argument for keeping this article I'm going to nominate it for deletion and see what the community thinks. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 17:19, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that we should keep this article. The geologic timescale article helps explain how all the different subdivision of time relate to each other, but it's good in my view to have an article on just this topic as well. Mikenorton (talk) 20:48, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, that makes sense. Especially now that there are some references here and that there are links from here to Geologic_time_scale and from that article back to this one. Won't nominate for deletion. Thanks for adding the references. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 20:04, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Sunnyland Slim

message: The first sentence of the "Biography" states that "some sources erroneously give this date as 1907" BUT the article does not give any conflicting information - indeed it confirms this "fact". Nice1al (talk) 22:02, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This is an artifact of edit warring over the dates 1906 and 1907. I'm changing the date back to 1906, and moving the statement about the "error" to a sourced footnote. The basis for 1906 is the Social Security Death Index, also anecdotally that he himself usually gave 1906. I think that's enough. The Social Security Death Index itself is available at geneology sites, but usually paywalled because of privacy concerns. (Our former cite for the lede was paywalled for that reason.)

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Doris Downes

message: *Keep.   ABC Newspaper (Barcelona and Spain) have a 1/2 page article on the artist and her paintings in their database.  It establishes notability and is written by the distinguished critic, Dolors Massot'.  It is a pay-for-viewing so cannot be linked, or I cannot link it successfully.   The notable career as a Creative Professional in Design is prior to internet databasing by some organizations (many who do not have the resources to pool their history) so I do not think this information should be discounted, but her artistic career is impressive due to the professional peers she is reviewed with.  I would also like to point out that comments made by Fountains of Bryn Mawr seem out of character for Wikipedia comments and vitriolic in nature when reviewing the history of protests.  They seem personal and one gets the impression that this reviewer may have a score to settle in knowing the artist, personally.  This is not in any way an accusation, more of a reflection.  The comments lack the straight-forward approach that Wiki reviewers tend to give.  I would ask that the Fountains of Bryn Mawr vote be striked for this tally.  Jordan23 16:28, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: You will not be able to find a legitimate source as the image is not authentic because this image was not created during the stated time period. It is an artist's conception of rope weaving instructions and what said instructions would look like during the days of Ancient Egypt. I say it's not authentic because of the characters depicted in the top main sequence (the full square-like shapes and various sides of square shapes) are not characters used by the Living People in the days of Ancient Egypt.
