Talk:Mantrap (snare)

message: Link No. 2 is broken.  Needs removal / editing.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.139.225.201 (talk) 13:07, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Edited first sentence, it said "designed to entrap a person on purpose". Well, obviously that is not true because it is called a mantrap not a persontrap. The mantrap was designed long before the word 'person' was (and the word person is only applicable in legal settings anyway). In the case that a 'persontrap' is created it would not do anything as the definition of a person in the law dictionary is 'a legal fiction'. In short, the mantrap is used to entrap humans which does not necessarily include persons.

Talk:Manyema

message: 1870 to 1880 reports of “Manyema” was inferences to the original populations within present day Maniema and Kivu. Distinctions were made with the Nyamwezi arabs speaking Swahili , who occupied the region to form slave trade routes and trading posts. The first recorded languages within the then Manyema regions further amplified the distinctions and recognised homogenous groupings within the region and those who entered via Tanzania in the 19th century. This explains why “Manyema” is not an ethnicity but was initially a term used to refer to the original populations of the region. 2A02:C7C:535A:FC00:5874:BF95:AAB4:9B21 (talk) 07:08, 12 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Pontefract cake

message: At the moment, the "Name" section just stops without addressing this.  I doubt many people would consider a disc of liquorice to constitute a cake.  There must be some reason that they're so called, for example:
* corruption of an older word
* left over from a time when "cake" had a broader meaning
* just a case of picking a random word for something edible that could be used to name this new-at-a-time confection
It may be that the answer is unknown, but then there must be something out there about supposed origins of the term, like there is for such things as 99 Flake and OK.  Can we add something to the section to cover this?  In any case the section shouldn't just stop without addressing the question. — Smjg (talk) 18:32, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

The Mamiya RZ67 article is out of date and contains wrong information which is damaging to the brand. The edits I carried out were unfairly and improperly reverted. My source is the new brand owner itself who has been silenced by Wiki.

Talk:Medieval Corsica

message: Mr. srnec - I see you have done quite a bit of editing on Wikipedia so I am going to take you seriously. You reverted my rewriting of the intro. The "editorializing" I can understand. I got NO idea by what you mean by "self-referential." Does that mean you think I made it up? No, no, you can't mean that as I gave 3 or 4 Wikipedia article links to explicate the concept. In any case I present you with a problem. This article is not about medieval Corsica! The Germanic migrations are not generally considered medieval and the Renassaince is in here too. The scope of the article covers far too much time to be medieval. My solution was to point that out in encyclopedic terms. The alternative is perhaps breaking the article up unless you can think of something else. You are welcome to rewrite it yourself or take any other action to solve the problem. The ball is in your court. I would like to see accurate Corsica articles so I put the tag on there to stimulate discussion and debate. Maybe we really do need to think about breaking up the article into Corsica in late antiquity, Corsica in the Renaissance, etc. I'll be checking back later to see what your thoughts are or what your solution is. You can always send me a message.Dave (talk) 10:21, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Late update. Hmm. I read the Middle Ages article carefully and it does define the term Middle Ages as possibly covering the time from classical to modern. Well. After due consideration I think I should take the tag off that I put on. I want to suggest however that the article under its current name is going to get too long and already is pretty long so we might want to retreat from the most general possible definition of middle ages. OK. Since the terms have been defined in a linked article there is no need for me to get excited about srnac's reversions and this discussion covers the issues. I would like to suggest srnac that the picture needs more weight than what you have given it for design aesthetics. Also it is customary to put the name of the article in BF in the first sentence. That would require rewriting the 1st sentence. I am not going to do these things as the other Corsica articles need my time more. But those are my suggestions. Ciao.Dave (talk) 11:11, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: To answer some of your questions. By "self-referential" I meant that the lead referred to the article which it led. I think that that is bad form. As regards boldening the term "medieval Corsica" in the lead, I think in this case it is unnecessary. This article covers a topic which could be titled several ways, without partiality to any one: "Corisca in the Middle Ages", "Medieval history of Corsica", and the current title. The term "medieval Corsica" was chosen solely for conciseness. The article could be split, but should only be split when it gets too large. Expand it first, then split if off into subarticles. That's the best approach, on my view. Thanks, by the way, for reading up on the issue and dissolving it before I even noticed. Srnec (talk) 21:03, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Meistersinger

message: Hi, this is User:Psychonavigation - but I'm not logged in. Leave a note on my userpage if you wish to speak further or in a less public arena (not that this page is especially popular). Anyway, I've just added both a "one source" and an "original research" template to the top of this article, for reasons that should be quite evident if one scrolls to the bottom of the article. For a topic that is rather well-known - at least parochially, in Germany - and has been the subject of an opera by Wagner, you'd think there would be more reliable sources on the subject. I know nothing about it and intensely dislike pre-20th century "classical" music, but through a cursory google search I found quite a few sources that had at least the appearance of being reliable. Anyway, hopefully someone takes a look at this... someday!

message: I've revised the first paragraph under Rules for correct English usage and clarity. I also removed the subcategories (a) and (b) that were previously Under point 3.

But I left them in deference to the style of the original author. 
In revising point (3), I substituted "poetic meter" for "number of syllables," but I do not know what the author meant by poetic "harmony," so I deleted that term without replacing it. The paragraph seems solid to me as it stands, but please do restore any salient point I have missed.
