Talk:Mina Khel

message: This small piece on Mina Khel was earlier redirected by me and was merged with the main article on Marwat. But the unidentified editor has once again created this article with a dubious assertion which is far from being true. It contradicts the entire main article on Marwat. -- Marwatt 15:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

message: There is no need of redirection now, as there is too much posted on the Mina Khels on the same page.
Beside this, when an article is tagged for Deletion, it must have one of the following results.
Delete 
Speedy Dlete
Keep
or
Speedy Keep
Redirection was a suggestion not a result nor an order.
The article is kept, this means that the article is having it's own position and name.
I in immense endeavour, will promote this article by valueable information, that will soon be added here.

message: Yes, there is a massive need of a separate article. The tribe is too big.
If any one has any doubt about this family, (S)he can check Mina Khels or Meena Khels on search engines. They themselves will come to know the fact. Mina Khels are no doubt very well known clan.

See the Italian page :it:Stefano Bollani and also this news Wikipedia, Bollani e quella nota stonata where Stefano Bollani complains because in al lot of place it is written that he was born in Carignano, and not in Milan, just because Wikipedia has written that.

There had been some question  (), several months prior to Jafeluv deleting the text, as to why the editor's byline remained even though someone had modified the article's text in the meantime.  Simply, bylines in articles are inappropriate (refer to WP:SIGNHERE), and any and all edits are subject to modification. (The question itself was confusing, because the editor used one account to make the edit(s) and another to ask the question. This seems as good a place as any to (hopefully) clear it up; I'm not sure that it was addressed anywhere else.) -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 17:56, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Possible conflict of interest 

message: I have not heard from the person who has been working on this article. Here are some recommendations for how to improve the article. First, click on my name for help. Second, read Wikipedia documentation, especially the sections that emphasize impartiality, such as Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Third, if you are going to add citations, please read the documentation on how to choose sources. Then use the citation template (see my page) and enter the pertinent information. 
An article isn't supposed to be a list of every activity in a person's life. One has to make judgments and decisions. This is difficult when one is a fan, relative, booster, cheerleader, or for some other reason wants the subject to appear Important so that the rest of us consider him Important. One question is: Is this subject primarily a musician? A composer? An arranger? If a certain activity is discussed in the body of the article, you don't need multiple detailed tables repeating what you talked about. In fact, you don't need tables at all, especially if the discography is short, as is the case here. In most cases, don't use a table unless the discography is really long and requires additional detail. A table with all the details from an album is not only dizzying to read, it's a waste of the reader's time and it makes the subject appear more important, the assumption being that quantity equals quality. So in most cases you don't need tables. You don't need sections of lists that merely repeat what has already been said, or which turn the article into an exaggerated resume. On Wikipedia, we summarize. Keep it short, plain, and simple.Vmavanti (talk) 01:29, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

Template talk:Campaignbox Napoleonic Wars

message: While the pages for the two subjects should certaintly remain separate, I was wondering if the campaignboxes that list all the various coalitions might be merged into a single campaignbox.  
*The coalitions are named as one single sequence (not 2nd revolutionary coalition and 1st Napoleonic coalition)
*it provides a nice bridge to span from one period to the other
*the revolutionary wars campaignbox just looks sad with only two entries  
As an aid to discussion, I posted two different versions of how this might look as revisions to this template (although we might change the name of the template if we choose to adopt this revision).  Please take a look and let me know if it makes sense.  The Gomm 05:11, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This is probably sensible, but, if we're going to have a combined box, it should also include the other wars tied into the French Revolutionary sequence (e.g. the Gunboat War).  As far as the layout is concerned, I don't see any problems with just using a simple sequence, as in your first variant; funny spacing tricks are generally to be avoided, per WP:CAMPAIGN. Kirill Lokshin 05:27, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I tend to agree with you about the 'funny spacing tricks'.  The only reason that I gave that option a try was that there is probably some benefit to making some little distinction between the revolutionary and napoleonic coalitions.  This spacing trick seemed like the least annoying option for making a distinction while keeping them together.  Gomm 06:06, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's probably too subtle a distinction to make in a simple navigational template.  The conflicts are pretty commonly regarded as an interconnected series (e.g. Great French War), regardless of where sub-divisions may be made; while the breaks between the wars may be a good way to organize articles, trying to present them here isn't really beneficial, in my opinion.

Talk:Column (formation)

message: From my talk page
:Please note that the faulty historiography started by Sir Charles Oman on the French tactical system during the French Revolutionary and the Napoleonic wars has been corrected in modern times. The French did not actually attack with columns for most of that period; the "colonne d'attaque" was a columnar method of maneuver, not of attack. When French soldiers got sufficiently close to the enemy for attack, they almost always deployed into lines. At Waterloo....they deployed into lines. Wellington most likely made that comment because he saw them coming in columns, but they would not have attacked that way (and in fact they didn't). Hope this clarifies the matter.UberCryxic 15:36, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
