Talk:Annie Parisse

message: Hi everybody,
I just have a question on the photo for Annie Parisse here - the lighting, angle, and her expression are just so awkward that you can hardly recognize her. The info in Help is a bit too generic for what I wanted to find out - how do determine if a specific image, such as this one, where she is wearing the same clothes, can be posted on Wikipedia to replace the existing one?

message: I've restored the link provided by .  My Russian is a bit rusty, but it's good enough to see that the link is indeed about the subject of this article.  Now, Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links)#Non-English-language sites says that non-English-language sites are OK "when the webpage contains key or authoritative information found on no English-language site and is used as a citation (or when translations on English-language sites are not authoritative)."  I don't know anything about Polish car manufacturers, and my Russian isn't good enough to tell me whether this site contains all the info that's present in this one.  That's an editorial determination that can be made here.  But the link shouldn't be removed merely because it's in Russian. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 07:57, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I've edited the suggested English translation to "Car [lit. personal vehicle] Factory, and described my edit as, "Improved translation by using more everyday English, that is also less ambiguous."
The previous rendering was "Passenger Automobile Factory", which I felt might be understood to include minibuses (in Europe, a minibus is defined as having 10–17 seats, including the driver's seat).
This is my personal opinion: I welcome comments and suggestions.

Talk:Austin Westminster

message: Someone has included this statement for the A95/A105 (pre-Farina) Westminsters.
It is true that estate version of Austin's saloons/sedans were "named Countryman".   BUT there is no mention elsewhere in the entry of there ever having been an estate version of the Westminster, however.   Nor do I remember ever having seen one (in England, where I was living most of the time when they made the things).
It's possible that there was some sort of Australia special "estate version for down under".   That certainly happens with one or two Vauxhalls from the 1950s.   And Both Vauxhall (well, Holden) and Austin (well BMC) had Australian assembly plants at the time which could have felt the need to ... branch out.
If anyone knows of the existence of an estate version of the Austin Westmininster, please can you add a line about it (or two) in the wiki-endtry - which version(s) of the Westminster - A95, A105 or both or more?, when/where produced / converted?  where/ how many sold?   etc. - preferably with source(s).   Otherwise I think we must conclude that the statement "The estate version was named Countryman." is mistaken aka untrue, and needs to be removed.
Anyone....?

Talk:David Williams (2000s pitcher)

message: This entry was recently moved, apparently without talk page discussion, from Dave Williams to David Williams. The edit summary said that we were using "the wrong name". We know that it's not an issue of the wrong name, but one is likely better than the other when taking into account WP:COMMONNAME.  Baseball-Reference.com does have him under David, but almost all of the other sources that I can access (including newspaper coverage from his career and baseball-related websites) uses the common name Dave. I think this might have been an ill-considered page move, but I'm hoping to get some other opinions. EricEnfermero (Talk) 05:10, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

In that interview, Ramsey was explaining he did not understand the victims would die and explained that he means that in that video game , when you shoot someone , he gets back up again and again and so it was not clear to him in his shooting of the victims that they would not get back up. 
Interview words of Ramsey:
<<
RAMSEY: ... Keep in mind that I didn't understand how life worked at the time. I didn't know that, when you shoot somebody, they don't just get back up. 
COOPER: What do you mean? 
RAMSEY: I did not understand that if I -- like using myself in using an example, if I pull out a gun and shoot you, there's a good chance that you're not getting back up. You're going to bleed to death and die either right there or on the way to the hospital. And that part of reality didn't click, for whatever reason. 
COOPER: I don't know. I think it's just probably hard for some people to believe that you didn't know, you know, dead is dead. 
RAMSEY: I -- I based a lot of my knowledge solely on video games. 
You shoot a guy in "Doom," and he gets back up. You have got to shoot the things in "Doom" eight or nine times before it dies. And I went with that concept on -- with -- from the video game and added it to life. 
>>
(And expert shrink talking with Anderson Cooper after the above Ramsey interview , confirmed that teens do not think the same as an adult and that's why they are tried as juveniles [but Evan Ramsey was not, he was tried as an adult].)
And Ramsey asked that teens consider, and should understand, that 
situations as like the one he went through being taunted endlessly,
do change and can get better, and that life moves on past such events
-see above interview link. 
[To which Anderson Cooper replied after the video showed Ramsey going  back to his cell, how peverted Ramsey was, when his statement was clearly entirely logical and an attempt to aid other teens in distress from taunting; so, the only person thinking in a perverted way being Anderson Cooper].
His crime was also profiled on the Court TV series Anatomy of a Crime.

Talk:Polski Fiat

message: I don't think the 128 Sport was ever built in Poland. I can see where the confusion may come from as the later hatchback 128 Sports were named "3P" but the "P" there stands for "porte", ie "door" - the 128 3P was the "128 tres-porte", not the "128 3-Polski".

Apparently the rootes group before the chrysler takeover built some prototype 1969 rapier fastbacks with the 289 ford v8.true or false?
:Quite unlikely, but not impossible. The Chrysler connection was well established quite sometime before 1969, but that doesn't necessarily mean that Rootes did not experiment with other engines, particularly as the Sunbeam Tiger used a Ford V8. Eagleash (talk) 12:08, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

message: I attended Montreal West High School from 1963-1967.  I had Spence for biology for at least two years.  Spence was NOT a popular teacher except  to the very small number of students who were invited to his cottage. This occurred also while I was at MWHS before any of the charges were laid. He was in my opinion a very weird person with a nervous twitch. I'm still in touch with three other former students. To my knowledge none of them liked Spence on any level.  I am 66.
I also noted the location of Aberdeen Sask. should be corrected.

Talk:The Bridges of Madison County (film)

message: :Please add to the list references that can be used for the film article.
*
Richard Corliss is quoted in Time Magazine as describing the Eastwood/Robert character as a "rootless man who only now realizes he needs the one woman he can have but not hold."  In theory a movie reviewer in Time would be a superb or at least sharp writer, and Corliss may well be that overall.  Here he has missed an obvious chance to say more by switching his verbs around.  Streep/Francesa, we can more aptly describe as "the one woman he can HOLD but not HAVE."  Versus "have but not hold."  
In the book it seems clear that, had Robert tried even 25%--possibly 5%--harder to make Francesca his, he would have succeeded.  He would have then both held her and possessed her, and taken her away.  That would have upset her family's life, but might have greatly improved Robert's, had he wanted it badly enough.  I don't think she's the one woman he can't have.  I think it's family life that he can't have, because it won't work for him, and he has the self-awareness to see that and drive away.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.200.80.4 (talk) 23:57, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  ABITW!?! 

message: I have been of late reading Charles Spencer's Killers of the King, about the regicides of Charles I and their fates. The first of them to be tried, Thomas Harrison, denied the defenses he most preferred, that he had acted under Parliamentary authority and that he was following what he believed to be God's will, basically reduced himself to admitting every action was accused of (attending the trial, supervising Charles's imprisonment and (the worst) signing the death warrant) just denying that it was a crime.
When this was over, the judge turned to the jury and said (among other things):
You can almost hear the leitmotif starting under these words. My wife caught this too, and I suspect Lord Spencer (old enough to have been in his teens when the album came out) was too ... later on he actually uses the phrase "there was no need for the jury to retire" in describing the conclusion of Francis Hacker's trial.
Of course, both men were almost immediately sentenced to be "exposed before [their] peers", not just psychologically speaking but physically; they were executed slowly and graphically, as was the prescibed punishment for traitors and regicides of that time.
So I wonder ... even given the tangled composition history of this song, this sounds like something Roger Waters might have been aware of and done deliberately. Has he ever said anything about this? Ever been asked, even? Daniel Case (talk) 03:43, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

message: I reverted a number of edits, because they introduced more problems than they solved. Specifically:
* The romanisation is Chōchin-obake, no macron on the 'o' of 'o-bake' (so-called honorific 'o'). I think the German article is simply wrong, too.
* Use of nihongo template etc done the German way
* Conflates two Japanese articles: ja:不落不落 ('burabura') and ja:提灯お化け ('chōchin-obake'). It is not clear if these are "the same", but they should not be treated simply as alternative names for the same thing.
* Illustration from the Burabura ja article
