Talk:Maryland Route 55

message: Since I originally created the article and it would be considered a conflict of interest for me to review the GA nomination, I'm just going to list a couple things here that I think should be addressed before the article is considered for promotion.
* More detail than is necessary is included in the route description (e.g. the power lines probably aren't all that important). 
* There are some potentially notable landmarks along the road that aren't mentioned at all and have historical importance in the area, such as the Vale Summit church and the old Clarysville Inn. 
* This is a minor detail, but I'm originally from this area, and other than Google Maps, I've never heard of Loartown being referred to as Loarville. Just to check, I tried searching the local newspaper for the names Loartown and Loarville. Loartown gives several results, but Loarville gives none. It's possible that the USGS or some other reliable source disagrees with me, but I think Google Maps shouldn't be trusted.
* The history section is somewhat lacking, considering it only mentions the few realignments that can be found using the MDSHA maps available on the Internet. A bit more research may help make this section better. One book that may be very helpful is "Glorious Old Pompey Smash" by Harold Scott. My parents had a copy of it, but I haven't been able to find one here - the nearest library that has it is over 1000 miles away from where I currently live. That book has a very extensive history of the area, including maps that show the realignments of Vale Summit Road. There are several events in the history of Vale Summit that would make the history section more interesting if included, such as the coal mine fire that burned through part of the seam under Vale Summit.
Overall, I think this article requires a bit more research before it can be promoted to GA status. - Algorerhythms (talk) 02:00, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have addressed the first three points. As for the fourth point, I do not have access to the suggested books and cannot find any relevant history on Google at the current time. If I find anything, I will add it to the article. Dough4872 (talk) 16:37, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Talk:1964 Mount Isa Mines strike

message: Specific to the 'Communist Influences' section: This section is written in the form of an opinion article, and is not from a neutral point of view. Further, it lacks citations, and no opposing viewpoint is presented. The last line of the section, particularly, is pure conjecture.
For the rest of the article: There are insufficient citations - only one in-line citation appears in the article, and the resources listed under References are not from a variety of viewpoints - only the anti-unionist views are represented.
Further, as stated in the article on the International Workers of the World (IWW) article, specifically the 'In Australia' section (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Workers_of_the_World#In_Australia), though several members of the then outlawed IWW were involved in the formation of the Communist Party of Australia in 1920, they departed from the organisation soon after, and by the time of the 1964 strikes had long since severed any ties with the Communist Party of Australia, and the Communist Party International.
Even disregarding this, the section on 'Communist Influences' is explicitly written from an anti-communist and anti-unionist perspective, with the use of phrases such as 'If they had succeeded, the Communist Party would have had its thumb on the jugular of Queensland's mining industry.' - written both with partisan phrases, and conjecture.
The view presented is that the unionists aims were morally wrong and a threat to society - what should be presented is a factual and informative, neutral view, as per Wikipedia policy.
I understand this topic is still controversial, particularly with those who lived through or whose relatives lived through the strikes. It is important that both sides of the event are represented, from a neutral perspective that is judging of neither - except perhaps in a 'criticisms' section, which is not present. And even then, criticisms must be based on facts, not conjecture.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.186.247.152 (talk) 07:54, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Coleman Glacier on Mt. Baker 

message: I see no reason to mention that the glacier is also known as Coleman Glacier. Even though it is named for Elija Coalman (a.k.a. Coleman} there are no sources I can find that mention the variant spelling other than sites which probably derived their information for this article. If there are they should be cited. GNIS does not mention the alternate name. There is a Coleman Glacier on Mount Baker.
Even if the misspelling can be documented. I don't think it is worthy of mention here.  –droll [chat] 18:13, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: All valid points.  From a historical perspective, I ran across several mentions of the glacier with the alternate spelling, like USGS, climber's fact sheet, a memorial, and climbers talking to each other.  Coleman is linked on that basis and per MOS:BOLD, it should appear that way in the article.  Mountain climbers probably speak and hear the name much more than they write it or see it.  Since the spelling is ambiguous, and apparently Elija was of doubtful literacy, having both spellings is helpful to the reader and does not present any problem. —EncMstr (talk) 19:03, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Ewell West railway station

message: Is it worth adding information to this page on the successful campaign to bring zone 6 to Ewell West (and Ewell East) station. Currently there is only one sentence about it becoming a zone 6 station but doesn't reflect the campaigning that went into it. I consider it to be a significant event locally, having at the time almost reduced the price of travel in half and since 2007 the estimated station usage has increased by 25% where as Epsom Station has seen little growth and Worcester Park Station has seen a reduction.
I would have added the information to the page but as a supporter of the Residents' Association I undoubtedly have a conflict of interest in adding the information, particularly close to the upcoming elections in May and would ask that an unbiased wikipedia editor would consider adding the information.  As a newbie, I'm not sure it meets the wikipedia threshold, although the inclusion of an ongoing campaign on the Epsom Station page would suggest it is, however I would like to hear any feedback.

thread_title: Prez vs PM

message: This comes from the article on Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo:
Francisco Macías Nguema has commonly and incorrectly been identified as Obiang's uncle; however, this is as a result of western misunderstanding of tribal naming standards. In Equatorial Guinea's tribal culture , all members of a tribe use familial terms to refer to fellow tribe members. A person refers to his tribal elders as his aunts and uncles. Likewise non-sibling peers are cousins and those who are younger but not biologically related are nieces or nephews. Obiang is a member of the Fang Tribe which represents 85% of the country’s population. Thus, by tribal custom, an overwhelming majority of the nation is “related” to President Obiang. This fact has been recognized by the CIA[1] and US State Department.[2]
Furthermore, neither Teodoro Obiang's father nor his mother have any siblings with the last name Macias. The name Nguema, the only name that Obiang and Macias share, is a very common name in Equatorial Guinea—similar to Smith in the United States or Pérez and López in Argentina or Lee in China.
If I remember, I'll come back to correct this later. If I forget, please correct this mistake, which appears throughout the article. Denis Diderot II (talk) 02:48, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't understand why there is a specific statement included about the percentage of the budget that is spent specifically on research grants.  There is no other information in the article about what the association does besides research, nor is there any information about where their funds are directed.  
It appears that this comment is intended to suggest a pointed criticism of the association, which of course is very POV and a Wikipedia no-no.  For this reason, I'm commenting out the statement and links.  If someone wants to provide more comprehensive information about what the ida does and where its money goes, it would then be appropriate to de-comment the information so that it shows again.
