Talk:The Boyne Water

message: according to Vaughan Williams ML the Song seems to refer to more than only to the Battle of the Boyne - compare the 2nd entry: "Battle of the Boyne. Enniskillen, Aughrim, Boyne, Derry, 1690". My english is not good enought to understand all this but can somebody explaine me this? and maybe it would be good, to give some examples of recordings of well known groups (maybe the Chieftains on: Chieftains 4 (1973)?) is this the Song?

Talk:Brigg Fair

message: Eventually I will start the article on the actual Brigg Fair (not sure when I have to admit). Should I move this article then to "Brigg Fair (folk song)" or can anyone suggest a better title? Thanks, E  Asterion u talking to me? 20:37, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Brigg Fair (song) would be fine. If you followed the rule about "what the customer is most likely to be looking for when they type the name", you might decide that is the folk song and the fair should be Brigg Fair (fair), but that would be too — weird. Remember you also win the task of snapping the redirects (all four of them). David Brooks 03:04, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I see your point. In all honesty I only found out about Brigg Fair when I moved to Hibaldstow, a nearby village, two and a half years ago. I did not know of the song till I visited this article but I'm not a normal customer as I was born abroad ;-) E  Asterion u talking to me? 23:12, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Agree.  The actual Brigg Fair deserves an article as its history goes back to around the 13th century and it was the inspiration for the folk song which, in turn, led to Delius' and Grainger's works.

replies: text: Oh, for heaven's sake, I should have looked sooner at Brigg. The fair is dealt with there (the horse fair seems to be the continuation of the traditional fair).

Talk:Les Binks

message: * Removed most of discussion of The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast as better served by its own article. The album & its outfall are at best peripheral to a musician with such a thorough c.v.
* Removed much discussion of Judas Priest: better served under Judas Priest.
* Removed hype, for instance a concert mainstay that has come to be regarded as one of the band's classics.
* Gone is gratuitous name-dropping of the various well-known musicians that appeared in Binks' career.
* The near-entirety of what I removed was in any case unsourced.

message: The categorisation is a bit off here. The song is a glee, not a carol. Given that it has a well-defined author and falls solidly in the glee tradition, it's not really a folk song either -- however popular it may be in the pubs of Sheffield.

Talk:Lesley Riddoch

message: I've corrected the statement that Riddoch was the "first female" and "first non-Conservative" president of the student union at Oxford.  Riddoch herself makes this claim at her own web site, but the statement is verfiably untrue.
There were many female presidents before Riddoch, the most famous of which was Emily Wallace (Somerville College, Oxford who in 1971 became the first state recognised student union president in Oxford's history.  As well, Michael Sullivan, the author of the 1973 Oxford University Student Union constitution, was a prominent Labourite, and certainly not a Conservative, years before Riddoch arrived on the scene.
:As per request on this subject in edits, refs have been added to show that Riddoch makes such claims and that these claims are false.
:Caravan of One (talk) 05:57, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see anything to support the suggestion that false claims had been made by Riddoch herself. There was an article cited that had been written by Riddoch, in which she does make a direct reference to the "Oxford University Student Union (OUSU)" which was the name that was in use from 1974 onwards. Before 1974 the relevant student body was called the "Oxford University Student Representative Council (OUSRC)". The examples cited above to "correct" things would appear to relate to the OUSRC.

message: Hi Smariamartins !
I read your article and I have a few comments. 
First, I want say good job on the article, I really like the way the sections are separated, it has a clear structure and it is easy to understand. the article is also well written and has reliable sources. The tables are also very clear and well formatted. 
The only thing I noticed that coud be changed is the imdb page which is in your References section. It is mentioned as sources 1 and 7, I don't know if that was intentional or not and also I think you could create another Heading at the bottom of your article called "External Links" and insert the imdb page there instead of in the References. You could write Leslie Dixon (add link of her imdb page on her name) at the Internet Movie Database (link the imdb page of Wikipedia on Internet Movie Database). 
Overall, I enjoyed reading about this screenwriter and the way your wrote and organized your article.

A lot of surnames are non-Indian - Morgan, Hoyt, Ricaud, Hilton. Descriptions - Big Foot being called big and black, Laura calling her daughter black and bow-legged.
