thread_title: Merging FISTF

message: as FISTF is derived from Subbuteo and indeed newfooty how can it be correct to say that Subbuteo in itself is a form of sports table football ?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.72.115.81 (talk) 10:20, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Origins 

message: FISTF is a merger between ETF and FISA nations. Many STF nations had two existing domestic associations between the 1970s-1990s. The sport or game derived from Newfooty (1929), developed further through Subbuteo (1947) and took main technical changes in 1993 through development of new upcoming manufacturers.
Subbuteo is well known throughout the world as a game, but it is not a sport. Subbuteo is sold through toy shops and distribution to reach the kids.
It is permanently brought up into context to the FISTF and its sports rules and regulation definitions.

thread_title:  [[History of Bihać]] 

message: The city has never had such a status, regardless of the period and political entity to which it belonged. Kreševljaković's statement is baseless, the article outdated (see: WP:AGE MATTERS, WP:HISTRH, WP:SCHOLARSHIP) and without footnotes (he does not say what is his source or base for such a claim), but most importantly he was not medievalist and is way out of his comfort zone on topics from the field. Another even more important thing is that no other medievalist, contemporary to Kreševljaković, before him or after, has ever made such a claim, but if editor can provide a proper reference for claim which I am about to remove from the article, I am going to revert myself momentarily. Sources which I included in a bit of prose which I just wrote, include medievalists such as well-known Mladen Ančić and younger and less known Damir Stanić - Stančić's doctoral thesis was "Bihać kao sjedište Bihaćke kapetanije i slobodni kraljevski grad" and together with Ančić's "Bihaćki kraj od 1262. do početka XV stoljeća" makes proper scholarly foundation for subsection on medieval history of Bihać, and quite expectedly neither authors mention that town was a capital of any entity at any point in time during its long history - it should be inconceivable that two distinguished medievalist would omit something of that importance, and they are not the only Croatian medievalists who never made such a claim. But, as I said, if any editor can provide a proper reference for problematic claim I am going to revert myself.--౪ Santa ౪99° 22:29, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

Local train withdrawal in 1964 is not in dispute, but can anyone confirm that expresses did actually run until 1969?
My sources (mainly the book "A Lancashire Triangle") indicate that the last through trains on the Tyldesley to Wigan section were holiday trains, ending in September 1968 (so not really a service for Wigan North Western) and through freight and parcels trains also ceased in 1968.

thread_title:  Title: "The Treasure of Santa Barbara" or "The Midnight Folk"? 

message: Hi, the first paragraph of this article states that Kay's governess is the same person as the witch Sylvia Pouncer. This is a spoiler as Kay and the reader do not discover this throughout almost all of the book. It is certainly a plot point that the author intended to conceal, since Kay speculates several times as to whether the governess could be associated with the witches, upon encountering clues to this, but rejects the possibility each time.
I'm not sure what the Wikipedia policy on spoilers is, but in this particular case it seems that this fact could either be omitted, or only revealed later in the article. For example, someone reading a plot synopsis is probably much more open to a potential spoiler than someone reading the opening of the article. It also doesn't seem to add much to tell readers at this point that Sylvia Pouncer is the governess. 2A02:C7C:3794:5200:9858:6DD6:6C03:1178 (talk) 14:43, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
