message: The spelling "mynah" is almost as common as "myna" but is not mentioned at all in the article. I think this should be corrected. Mynah redirects to myna but is not a misspelling.

Talk:Defence Long Service Medal

message: Currently the diagram only shows up to 40 years of service in which the recipient gets one federation star.  Technically due to a higher compulsory retirement age in the Reserve Services of 65 and age extensions, it is possible to get more than one federation star by providing 45, 50, 55 etc. years of service.  A very possible scenario is: joining the ADF (regular or reserves) at 17 and possibly transferring to the reserves at any point, then after turning 65 getting two years of age extensions and leaving the reserves at 67.  This scenario is quite possible and would mean getting three federation stars.  Do you think the diagram should reflect this or am I just detailing a too unlikely scenario?  --TinTin (talk) 06:20, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

message: I added the cite needed tag after the statement "True claudication is relieved with rest from exercise." While the statement makes sense, it is a little misleading. There are numerous causes of claudication, and at least one that I can think may not necessarily be relieved by rest. If someone has an arterial stasis ulcer in their leg, circulation is continuously decreased distal to the ulcer. Resting may not help. Eyknough (talk) 14:15, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

message: "Some things to know before use are the following: contraindicated in patient with heart failure, should be taken 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal, and improvement of symptoms may not be evident for two to three weeks."

Talk:King's South Africa Medal

message: I have deleted the second paragraph of the section headed The Second Boer War, that deals with the scorched earth policy and concentration camps.I note that the same paragraph in the article for the Queen's South Africa Medal was deleted on 14 Oct 19 on the basis that it was an "irrelevant argumentative paragraph as (a) it reads badly, as nationalistic axe-grinding, (b) more British troops than Boer civilians died due to poor camp conditions and (c) the troops did not decide the controversial policy, Kitchener did."While I have no strong views as to whether the paragraph should be included or not, I think the two articles should be consistent. Therefore if anyone is minded to restore the paragraph, it would be better to do so for both the King's and Queen's medals.Hsq7278 (talk) 20:12, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

message: " According to Halliday, many Christian Arabs were attracted towards the party since they, being Orthodox, felt emotional bonds with Russia."
Should be deleted. There are books on this in Arabic by the parties members. The central theme was that their churches disowned Communist members. So 
they were secular and without a connection to organized religion. Further, it is offensive because much of the intellectual activity of the Party was by Arab scholars and not Jewish scholars
They joined because of their intellectual commitment to communism. This reads as though the Arabs joined for not because they were committed but because of religion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.222.199.252 (talk) 23:19:25, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Source Question

message: To provide more detail on what motivated the PCP to recruit more Arab members, after the first sentence of the second paragraph under the History section, I propose adding:
By this time, the Comintern began its push for greater worker unity as opposed to isolated labor union groups, such as the Histradut, whose supporters were exclusively Jewish. Coupled with The Party’s call to Arab resistance of land sales that left many displaced, the Palestine Communist Party attempted to establish an Arab base by explicitly appealing to the anti-Zionist stance held by many working class Arabs. 
My second edit is to change the first sentence in the fifth paragraph to better describe the party's split in 1944:
Jewish PCP leaders began questioning their strict anti-Zionist stance and believed softening this opposition would strengthen their Jewish support in the Yishuv. However, Arab PCP members would not allow concessions to Zionism, as they opposed it in all circumstances and wanted an Arab communist party to represent the Palestinian Arab majority. In 1943 the party split, [with its Jewish members creating two smaller groups known as the Hebrew Communist Party and a structurally reformed, solely Jewish, Palestine Communist Party. During the same split, PCP] Arab members formed the National Liberation League in 1944.[6] [1] TobiasGarciaVega (talk) 02:13, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
