Talk:Joel Burns (basketball)

message: Joel Burns is also the name of an openly gay member of the Fort Worth, Texas city council who, during the remarks and announcements portion of a city council meeting, gave a speech lasting nearly thirteen minutes showing photographs of youths who had committed suicide after having undergone bullying because they were gay or perceived to be gay by their peers. He went on to describe his own experiences with bullying during his youth and called upon bullied teenagers to hang in there because life gets better. He implored adults to make schools safe places for children to learn and grow, and not allow children to feel unloved and worthless. He encouraged despondent children to seek support from thetrevorproject.org or by calling him personally. An emotional video of his full remarks went viral and, on October 15, was shown on CNN followed by an Ari Velshi interview with Mr. Burns. Fortguy (talk) 22:07, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Dogs in Mesoamerica

message: Hi there Vaga85 - re the two imgs above from Justin Kerr's Mayavase portfolio that you've uploaded to Commons. Just to let you know that unless the permission and licensing status for the imgs is not updated on their respective Commons pages, the imgs will probably be deleted in about a week.
I saw at the commons pages that you'd linked to the OTRS pending template (I fixed the coding so the template was being directly called), so I am presuming that you've managed to obtain some email confirmation from Dr Kerr that the imgs can be used under some appropriate free and commons-compatible license. Which is great, only that you may have to leave some more info on their image pages on commons so that admins there can see that the formal permissions registration process is underway. Just follow the procedures at :commons:OTRS, if for eg you could supply some info such as the email header name and date you sent to the OTRS queue, then that should hopefully be enough to forestall any deletion action of unlicensed imgs.

message: I think this is a good start, but it can be much improved with better organization and correct citations.  Note that you haven't included any in-line citations of your sources.  This can be accomplished with references in the style of entries made by other students in the course (check these for examples of how to include footnotes).  Please note that your second image of a dog is not a Maya example, but a Pre-Columbian vessel from Colima, well outside the Maya area.  I recommend that you use your contribution as an addition to the "Dogs in Mesoamerican" entry, editing it so that it fits a larger structure that can be expanded with other examples.

thread_title: Untitled

message: Until yesterday, a statement at The_Chinese_Language:_Fact_and_Fantasy read, "A good portion of the book is devoted to debunking what DeFrancis calls the 'six myths' of Chinese characters." To lessen the chance that readers might take the statement to indicate that Wikipedia considers DeFrancis to have succeeded in his undertaking, I inserted the words "attempts at" prior to "debunking."
A statement here, at this article, likewise requires amendment. I'm changing "One of his most well-known books, The Chinese Language: Fact and Fantasy (University of Hawai'i Press, 1984) debunks a number of 'widespread myths' about the language—for instance, erroneously calling Chinese characters 'ideograms'" to "One of his most well-known books, The Chinese Language: Fact and Fantasy (University of Hawai'i Press, 1984) attempts to debunk a number of what DeFrancis considered "widespread myths" about the language—including, for instance, what he referred to as 'The Ideographic Myth'."

Talk:The Real Kids

message: Keep - or redirect to possible new Real Kids article.  There are several issues here.  Firstly, Felice was, with Jonathan Richman, a founder member of The Modern Lovers, who are clearly notable.  However, WP:MUSIC states Members of notable bands are not given individual articles unless they have demonstrated notability for activity independent of the band.  Fair enough - the issue then becomes one of whether Felice's later activities - i.e. The Real Kids - make him notable.  In my view they do - The Real Kids are cited in multiple sources as important in the early Boston punk rock scene, have an AMG article, released albums internationally, etc.  If the deletion proposal would be overcome by having an article headed The Real Kids, rather than a redirect to John Felice, fine, I will do that.

message: I know that in the past there was a more thorough plot summary that got shredded, but the version that was there now was not only woefully incomplete, there were things in it that were just wrong. 
If it needs to be paired down, okay, but this movie's plot is actually pretty complex - with subtle references and foreshadowing - that really can't be captured in 3-4 short paragraphs. So please do not remove large chunks without adequately summarizing what is within them. 
And in case anyone who hasn't seen the movie wonders why I felt the need to include the various hair colors of Anna Faris in the film, it is contextual. It's one of the in-jokes of the movie, that Anna's hair starts out in a color/style you'd almost never see on her, but when she appears at the end of the film she's back to her natural (one might even say signature) hair color and style.

Template talk:Christian music articles

message: This template is, in principle, a good one. But it is at present considerably skewed and biased: geographically (towards the West), historically (towards present-day) and culturally (pop/rock etc. styles), so is a poor reflection of the breadth and depth of Christian music historically and globally.
I've just nested the existing 'Chant' template within it.  This makes a start on broadening it out considerably from all three of the above limitations. I hope that is acceptable.
Further, it suggests that even more flexibility could be gained by having using a model of several independent, nestable templates, rather than one monolithic one.
Thoughts?
