message: I just removed a completely WP:OR statement in the last sentence of the plot. It claimed that "the expression on Picard's face reveals how much of a struggle it has been and how much he feels he has lost"
What a load of piffle. His face does not change, he simply tells the ambassador that the hopes he has a safe journey home.
One could equally believe that the facial expression shows that Picard might well have sampled her delights, finding her irresistable.
That, too, would be OR Chaosdruid (talk) 11:10, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right, the plot section should not include any such subjective interpretations. Plot sections should be just the plot, not commentary, and editors should avoid attempting to be mind readers.

Also read about verifiability, to help understand how to edit this encyclopedia.   --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 19:47, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Well at first I thought it was obvious that the Notre Dame coach would have to be Catholic. I see now that isn't the case, as the Parseghian example makes very clear. As a Catholic myself, I find it extremely disappointing that this supposedly Catholic school doesn't stand firm and insist on Catholic leadership, on the football field and everywhere else. Suffice to say Notre Dame is a Catholic school in name only.

:It is a photograph. Source website has been provided while uploading the image, and that source, a reputable Indian newspaper, says that the image is a photograph dating to 1899. ImpuMozhi 02:00, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It is obviously not a photograph, regardless of what the "reputable newspaper" may say now or may have said back in antiquity. Its not even artistic realism - its more like a cartoon. In fact, two other young Ghandi photos appear to be actual fakes. This one at least is a genuine illustration. -Ste|vertigo 17:17, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

text: I don't see the point in these exertions. I have provided the source, which is indeed, a "very reputable" newspaper (italics to add to your scare-quotes) and one could reasonably expect you to provide something other than bare and repeated assertion. ImpuMozhi 18:46, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like a lithograph to me, which were often made directly from photographs for the purposes of printing them in newspapers. (The Soviet Union continued to use this technology way after it had been outdated, which is why tons of Soviet-era pictures from even the 1960s have the same hazy, drawn look to them. In 1899 though it would not have been all that primative for cheaply reproduced photos, as I understand it, with my limited knowledge of the history of printing). All the same, I don't really understand what the debate is about. Does it being a lithograph or a photograph significantly change its copyright status? --Fastfission 15:26, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Armyrifle9, the image above it in the Gandhi article is from 1895, and clearly looks like a photograph.  So it's still strange that this photo, supposedly from 1899, would look like a (photoshopped?) cartoon.  Unclenuclear 05:29, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Schisms (Star Trek: The Next Generation)

message: The plot summary here is really awful, in tone and in accuracy. The article would be better with a thematic synopsis than the clipped plot description here.
Someone removed my Trivia about the clicking sounds from the aliens seeming to have been borrowed by the movie Signs (film). Can I put it back, or was it removed for a reason? I ask because it looks like it was removed along with an erroneous trivia about data's quote, and thought perhaps it was accidental. --User:btrotter
:I still wonder why no one seems interested that M. Knight seems to have directly copied the sounds from Schisms to his movie. Does anyone else find that remotely interesting? I just went back through the history and found where someone asked for a reference/citation. Just watch Signs, listen to the clicks, then watch Schisms and listen to the clicks. Play them side by side, whatever. I played them one after another on my PC and I can't tell the difference. Can you? As far as I know I'm the first person to notice (and mention) this? Do I have to be published for it to matter? --btrotter 05:43, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Yuna Roma Seiran

message: From the events surrounding Yuna's death in the show, I got the idea somehow that the "guards" Yuna was escaping from were actually Blue Cosmos operatives taking him to the escape shuttle - the specific clues to that effect being Lord Jibril's guards gunning down their "comrades" and radioing an all clear to Cagalli's command center; and Jibril's impatient waiting before launching in the Seiran shuttle. I don't want to post unsourced speculation in the main article, though.

Talk:Is There in Truth No Beauty?

message: The article says, "Miranda and the Medusan (in Spock's body) briefly quote Shakespeare's The Tempest." but it doesn't identify where in the play the quote may be found.
The relevant part of the script seems to be:

:Ah, Miranda.
:There you are.
:O brave new world, that has such creatures in it.
:'Tis new to thee.

*http://www.readprint.com/chapter-8429/William-Shakespeare
:Act 5, Scene I
:MIRANDA 
:O, wonder! 
:How many goodly creatures are there here!

thread_title: Interesting Point

message: Over fifty edits ago, stylistic editing choices culled most of the actual information, and replaced it synonyms which do not fit the actual plot. To top it off, the quote, with the alien and Cpt. JT is butchered, bloody badly.
I suggest a Trekkie goes back to the page prior to 2018/2017 when it had the original quote, and had the relevant information regarding strategic merchandise placement in the conversation with Spock over dinner.
Seriously, who thinks the can rewrite JT's farewell lines to alien damsels? Wikipedia editors, you ain't no Cyrano de Bergerac! 49.185.98.83 (talk) 18:40, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Chuck Long

message: "During Long's rookie season in the NFL, he was called into the game after an injury suffered by then-starting Quarterback Joe Ferguson, on the following play from scrimmage, Long promptly threw an 82 yard touchdown strike to the back of the endzone."
This cannot be accurate.  An 82-yard pass to the back of the end zone would stand alone as the greatest throw in professional football history.  It's far more likely that this was either a catch and run for an 82-yard touchdown, or Chuck Norris passing the ball.  If anyone can find a video of the throw, I suggest you update this. Adam Wolbach (talk) 15:02, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ha...very funny, and good point.  Found documentation in Drew Stanton's Detroit Lions bio that Stanton was the second Lion quarterback to throw a TD pass on his first attempt.

message: Is there a reason why an article about Jewish tradition is using /Christian/ dating rather than its secular equivalents?  Even in academic scholarly works, Jewish authors and some non-Jewish but culturally respectful secular academics use CE (Common Era) and BCE (Before the Common Era).
It is jarring to use Jesus Christ as a dating reference point in an article about a Jewish cultural phenomenon (AD = Anno Domino = In the year of our Lord, Lord = Christ; BC = Before Christ) when there is a perfectly good academically accepted and secular equivalent. 2A02:ED0:6DD1:1400:DD87:F77D:3F52:6958 (talk) 08:34, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:The Mark of Gideon

message: I suggest that the Gideonites obtained holodeck technology and installed it in a room adjacent to their council chamber. This would also explain the peculiar behaviour of the viewing port as well as the viewscreen, as well as it "seeming to not change" when Kirk drops the ship from warp speed to impulse. A century earlier, the NX-01 Enterprise encountered a race with convincing holodeck technology, so it must have gotten around to some races. GBC 05:57, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

So, unless someone wants to fit "zenite" in the article in some way, I think including it otherwise, and linking to it the way it was, would only be confusing for the vast majority of casual readers.
