message: It is also a word that is comprised of only a prefix and a suffix - after the advent of Supermarkets a smaller version emerged Supermarket + -ette  http://www.dictionary.com/browse/superette 
and the 'market' in the middle was dropped, thus creating a nonsense word of 'bigger' + 'smaller'. 202.56.51.251 (talk) 10:29, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Patawalonga River

thread_title: Etymology

message: Donama has just changed the "source" to Netley, but the situation is more complicated. 
(I won't edit the article myself, due to my COI - I'm the founder and chair of the Friends of Patawalonga Creek, which for almost 20 years has been involved in looking after the last 600 metre stretch of semi-natural channel and native vegetation, on Adelaide Airport land south of West Beach Road, and referred to as the Patawalonga Creek Conservation Reserve in the Adelaide Airport Master Plan.)
Prior to European settlement the Patawalonga River (or Creek) was an outflow channel of the vast area of wetlands the early settlers called the Reedbeds, which was flooded annually by the River Torrens, with the other outlet to the north being the Port River. (Breakout Creek is an artificial channel constructed during the mid-1930s as a Depression-era job creation project to prevent the annual flooding of nearby areas and open them up for development.) A good reference for the history is already listed as Ref 1.
At present the longest stretch of open channel drain feeding the Patawalonga Creek runs along Sir Donald Bradman Drive on the airport's northern boundary, from as far as Airport Road at Brooklyn Park, but this in turn is fed by underground drains of the Cowandilla-Mile End Drain, extending the catchment as far east as the western side of the Adelaide Park Lands. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 02:23, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I ended up reverting myself shortly afterward, actually - a bad habit I know :$ Anyway, Netley definitely doesn't seem right as the drain on the south side of the airport is labelled as the lowest part of Brown Hill Creek on maps I looked at to write Keswick Creek (which could do with another set of eyes). So leaving it as "near the airport" seems sufficiently vague to agree with the complicated situation described above. Could we perhaps add some information about the historic source of the Patawalonga whatever combination of swamps that might have been. There's hardly anything on Wikipedia about "Reedbeds", so at least some kind of acknowledgement of the Pat's connection to it (as indicated by Bahudhara above) would be good, I think. Donama (talk) 04:13, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Alas, I am conflicted again, having written a tour guide for several locations (including the remnant Patawalonga Creek) for the 2009 Friends of Parks Forum. It can be found here on the Port Adelaide Wiki. (It even has its own entry in Trove.) Bahudhara (talk) 05:37, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Catholic devotions/Archive 1

message: :Add *Support or *Oppose followed by an optional one-sentence explanation, then sign your opinion with ~~~~
*Strongly Oppose  This is part of a hostile campaign by Anglicans and some others to erradicate the name of the Catholic Church on WP.  This is a clear violation of WP naming conventions and policies.  For a complete discussion of this issue based only on WP conventions and policies please see this article: CC vs. RCC  --Vaquero100 19:24, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Survey

message: This article really should be renamed 'Roman Catholic devotions' or 'Latin Catholic devotions'. It is soley about what Romans do, and there isn't much point in making a discrete Eastern Catholic section as our material is generally put in the Orthodox pages (which then note both Orthodox and Eastern Catholic practice). InfernoXV 08:07, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You are welcome to start another move proposal, but please see the discussion above. On wikipedia, it has been established that both "Roman Catholic Church" and "Catholic Church" can be used to refer to the same body. There are people on both sides who hate this. Some people feel that the word "Roman" is a slur, or is inaccurate because it doesn't always refer to the 22 eastern particular churches in communion with the pope. Other people think that "Catholic Church" without "Roman" is vague, and can refer to more than one denomination. However, there has never been a consensus to support simply one or the other naming convention. So both are allowed. I personally believe improving actual article content is better than going through the ol' RCC vs CC debate again, but you can always test the waters and propose a move.-Andrew c 13:22, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not going to stir things up, but how about this for a suggestion? I propose stating at the beginning that this article is primarily about devotions of the Latin Catholic Church (or Latin-Rite Catholic Church even), and that a précis of Eastern Catholic devotion be added with a link to fuller treatment in articles on Orthodox devotions?

Talk:Deb Mell

message: An immediate predecessor of this article, Deborah Mell (which now redirects here), was previously deleted by uncontested proposed deletion (article log). Accordingly, this article is ineligible for proposed deletion.
However, since Mell now has the notability of being a candidate for statewide office, since her election currently appears probable, and since the article is sourced, she meets WP:BIO, so deletion shouldn't be an issue anyway. —C.Fred (talk) 16:01, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

The "Nursery Days" title apparently was a 1992 re-issue, so I wonder whether the original release title belongs in this discography. It took a while for me to find the album of my childhood...

Talk:Games by Apollo

message: I'm a little puzzled by the deletion nomination.  Its a recently created stub that certainly needs to be expanded to include more about the company.  Certainly not worthy of deletion, Apollo was one of the well known early Atari 2600 developers, forming in 1981 right after Imagic (Activision was of course the first and most well known, forming in 1981).  Other third party publishers that were also well known would be Data Age, Specravision, US Games, Mystique, Mythicon, Coleco, Epyx, etc.  It was also the first not formed by former Atari people.  --Marty Goldberg 07:23, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Deletion Contest

message: I've looked through the recent GbA games nominated for GAN and I'm wondering if, at under 4kB, the games are independently notable. The focus of the sources appears to be GbA as a company and less the games themselves (characterized elsewhere as "shovelware"). When the games are mentioned, it's several sentences. So before I begin the GAN reviews, I'm wondering whether they shouldn't be combined into one GbA article, or perhaps a separate "List of Games by Apollo games" article. , thoughts? czar ♔ 17:55, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm gonna say the ones I have nominated are probably notable, since there's several reviews for them. There are definitely a couple that aren't notable (like Racquetball or Wabbit) and when I get around to improving this article they'll be covered here in a Games section. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 17:59, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd compare it to the precedent of Talk:Outcast (Warriors)/GA1 (article diff, GAN discussion). It's not just that the product is simple—there wasn't much written about it, which is almost always cause for merging up. I'm bringing this up in advance because it would be awkward to actually go through with the GAN just to say it. czar ♔ 18:08, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

text: (edit conflict)I should add that I'm namely talking about Space Cavern and Spacechase (in their current state) because I'm more ambivalent about Skeet Shoot and think Lost Luggage (video game) is substantial. czar ♔ 18:16, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe there's enough reviews of both of my current GANs to justify articles for them... for Outcast it doesn't seem like there was any third-party coverage, while there's quite a bit for Skeet Shoot and Space Cavern. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 18:14, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Dustin Satloff

message: A nice little article, I think. I have cleaned it up a little in a more Wikipedia style. The article is factual, sticking closely to sources, so I have removed the tag. There was an over-emphasis on appearing in the New York Times, in my opinion, so I have toned that down. Dustin's notability rests on being a young entrepreneur; appearing in the NYT confirms notability. That he has been written about in the NYT can be inferred from the references anyway.
Wikipedia discourages subjects or people close to them from editing articles about the subject (apart from typos, spelling and so on) and I suggest that the creator refrains from further editing the article and instead place comments here for neutral editors to pick up.
Good luck with the business! ;-)  --Malcolmxl5 08:19, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't have access to the reference of this quote, but it sounds strange.

replies: text: I know, it sounds strange. The author examined more than 77 specimens, so why he used this number is odd. I will change it to 4% anyway Kare Kare (talk) 02:07, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

It also mentions some of his other ventures, but gives no details or even summaries (Critical Gameplay, is it a game or what? Polyglot Cubed, what is it?
