Talk:Hambo

message: This article looks like it was translated. Parts of it are ok, other parts not so much, and it needs help. It is difficult to describe dance steps in words, anyway. Also, having done the hambo myself, I can tell you the "lady" steps described here are not what I've done. But it's possible I'm doing a variant of some kind. --Fang Aili 19:43, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

text:     I changed the dance description as the woman's step was incorrect (could not be correct as it had both the woman and man stepping forward on Beat 1, not really an option). I'd like to change the odd-sounding "lead" and "follow" to "man" and "woman" but did not want to step on PC toes, if that was controversial? 
I am also a little worried about the "history" section. It seems to be written from a "modern hambo" point of view rather than from a longer historical perspective? That is, the polskas came first (originating in the 1600s), the came the industrialization in the late 1800s when people began moving to cities. At that time the "gammaldans" (waltz, snoa, schottis) began to prevail and the hambo arose, either, as the current author has it, out of the polka-mazurka, or perhaps out of people developing something "standardized" out of all the different polskas they brought from their country homes. Then later, the city sophisticates brought their dances back out to the country and the gammaldans (including the hambo) more or less wiped out the older polskas. There are many polska/hambo variants (e.g., hambopolska soedra dalarna, hambopolska fr foellinge, etc), but my understanding was that these came from people's efforts to adjust the local polska dance to the pressure of the hambo being brought in from the cities. There were several places where the current article does not seem consistent with this historical account. So I'll just wait a few weeks (or months) for comment before making any edits or changes along these lines.Cpgruber 22:54, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Section 47

message: OK, I have to chime in here because you guys are being absolutely pathetic. Before you put up a freaking copyright violation did you even bother contacting the site owner to check if there was one??? Obviously you didn't and I think it's quite clear a couple of you may have a personal bias. If you're going to take such a drastic measure in nominating a page for deletion you should atleast do your homework first and research for A copyright violation. Talk about abuse of power.
:Copyright doesn't work that way. Anything is copyrighted, unless specifically mentioned otherwise. The Section 47 website doesn't say its contents are in the public domain. In fact, it quite explicitly states that anything created for Section 47 becomes the property of Section 47. Talk about doing your homework... Besides, you shouldn't be so upset about Wikipedia actually protecting Section 47 property. I support the Section 47 article on Wikipedia, but what you said just isn't right.

message: What needs to be wikified? LaleenaTalk to me  Contributions to Wikipedia 20:40, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wikify Alert 

message: First, I have changed the link for the Type 97 light machine gun to the proper Type 97 aircraft machine gun, which is the Navy's Type 97, a fixed Vickers-based gun used on the Mitsubishi A6M and others. The Type 97 light machine gun is A.) An Army weapon, and B.) An infantry weapon, not an aircraft weapon. Thus it is not on the Japanese Naval Aircraft weaponry list. 
Second, I have removed the link Type 97 light machine gun from the section "defensive rear armament", because, as I said, it's not a Navy weapon, was never used in aircraft, and the Type 97 aircraft machine gun that WAS used by the Navy was exclusively a fixed weapon. I instead changed it to the Type 1 machine gun, which was the Navy's copy of the MG 15 machine gun, much like the Army's Type 98, which is also a copy.
The Navy and Army did not ever share weapons. Ever. When they used the same weapons, they gave them different names and made sure they were not compatible; thus you have the Type 89 machine gun and the Type 97 aircraft machine gun, both 7.7mm Vickers, but which don't even share a cartridge.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by .45Colt (talk • contribs) 17:34, 21 January 2014 (UTC)

message: This article has two sources, both of which are WP:PRIMARY links to the school's own website. The article has very serious WP:DUE weight problems. I gutted much of it, and added some wikilinks for context to try reign it in, but this was reverted by . Some of the most egregious ad-speak was then removed, but the entire section still leans entirely on the school's website with no outside indication of grater significance. I don't think we need to list exactly how much money the school raised for a library as part of its "centennial campaign" in 1990 without some sort of context or explanation why that matters. By adding all of this detail the article looks more like a recruitment brochure (a badly written one, no less) and not enough like an encyclopedia article. The only way this kind of minutia is going to be relevant is with secondary sources, which are lacking in the section, and article as a whole. Mentioning the number of tennis courts that were added in 1986, or using the WP:WEASELY phrase that "it is known as 'the school within a school' to the community" are not neutral.

thread_title: Article name

message: Thanks for your contributions. 
You say that 'Shipley and Windhill Station' was possibly also 'Shipley East'. Please give a reference for this: I haven't come across it in any books that I can remember, and in particular Dewick does not list it. What does 'possibly' mean in this context?
Your sentence 'although the line was used to take goods across Bradford as a shortcut' is confusing as it stands, so I've removed it. If you're saying that it continued thus after 1964, I don't think that's correct, as the books say the line closed South of Idle in 1964, and Bairstow says that by 1969 the track had been lifted. If you mean earlier, I'm not sure what the statement adds. Please restore and clarify it if you think there is a point that needs making. 
I've removed "And the former goods yard is now a scrapyard", as I don't think it is correct. The goods yard was much bigger than that, and I'm pretty sure that the whole of the new end of Thackley Old Road and the closes off it were all goods yard - the other side of Dock Lane. The scrapyard is on the site of the passenger station, I think. The 1906 Ordnance Survey map should show this, but I haven't got that section at home. I'll have a look at the library if I get the chance.

thread_title: I reworded the sentence.

message: I notice that this article relies on Text-Critical Information from the 1800s...which is now out of date. For instance it presents "The Syrian Recension" as a matter of fact rather than a text-critical conjecture, one now widely regarded as very mistaken even among text critics. Part of the difficulty in text-criticism is the attention to details and mastery of them...because the text critic has to read everything received from the past and sort through the evidence and class it, as well as consider the past considerations and compare them to evidence, while not accepting whatever has been refuted. 
If it is alright, I'm planning to (slowly) accumulate notes in this area of study (slowly working on learning the necessary languages and history too) and start addressing TC on wikipedia. But in regards to the "Lucianic" or "Syrian" recension, I suggest we re-write the article to say that textual speculations (they were indeed wholly speculations, not evidential--and indirecly evidential at that) once attributed a "Byzantine", "Syrian", or "Lucianic" recension to him, which speculation is now generally discredited (although the state of knowledge is not always uniform across schools or as caught-up so I'm unsure as yet whether just a large portion, or most, text critics now discredit that old theory: however I do read in their correspondences that it's generally considered one of the greater faults in the work of Dr. Hort and Westcott). Any suggestions? p.s. my "signing" (the four tildes) on wikipedia always shows "tooMuchData" rather than my screen name "TheResearchPersona". P.S. I also ought to note the historically mentioned recension of Lucian in the OT (not the NT). (rather than speculative) recensiantooMuchData 20:44, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
