replies: text: The LIRR Main Line actually terminates in Greenpoint (see Ronkonkoma Branch), but service east of Ronkonkoma is limited. Rail line electrification ends east of Ronkonkoma, and is relatively new (completed in 1988). For a page about the Ronkonkoma station, Ronkonkoma (LIRR station) still needs to be created.

replies: text: Tui (bird) →  – Tūī is the original te reo Māori word for this bird that had its common spelling changed to tui. Tui is a different te reo word meaning 'to sew or bind'. Tūī is now most-commonly used, by, for example: the Department of Conservation (New Zealand) here, Forest & Bird here, Zealandia (wildlife sanctuary) here, Te Ara: The Encyclopedia of New Zealand here, NZ Herald here, Stuff (company) here and TVNZ here. Te reo Māori place names have macrons on Wikipedia, and fauna and flora are now being changed, for example: kererū, kōkako, kākāriki, takahē, wētā and kōwhai. E James Bowman (talk) 03:58, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Google Scholar only samples peer-reviewed journal articles, which are a small subset of reliable sources. Note also the discussion is about the usage "tūī" in NZ English, and many of the sources Google Scholar cites are not New Zealand publications. Also Google Scholar has a strange habit of stripping macrons off sources in its search results: running that same search for the word "Maori" returns articles where the link shows "Maori" without a macron, but the actual article title uses "Māori" (e.g. 1, 2). So there are problems with using Google Scholar to assess prevailing usage. —Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 22:16, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The first example you linked does include "Maori" on page 248 (page 14 of the pdf) in the title of the Smith 1993 reference. There are some similar examples of papers that include both "tui" and "tūī", which means they contribute to both counts. Colin M (talk) 23:10, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

:If there were only similarities, then the answer is no. After all, one can find similarities between certain views of Bill Clinton and Bill Kristol, or (to use a more striking example) Pat Buchanan and Norman Podhoretz, but that doesn't make either Bill Clinton or Buchanan neocons.

Talk:Roger Wilkins

message: I feel compelled to say that I was appalled and dumbfounded to find that this article somehow made no mention whatsoever of the very salient fact that Roger Wilkins is an African American. Seriously, I am still shaking my head in disbelief -- it is simply inconceivable and inexplicable that this very essential piece of information could have been left out of his biography. I have now remedied the situation, along with adding the article to several relevant new categories. 
I haven't got the time to go back through the entire history of edits to see if it was formerly mentioned and then expunged from the article -- or if it just never occurred to anybody that it needed to be stated. Whatever the case, as far as I'm concerned, it is nothing less than disgraceful for Wikipedia to have articles about notable African American figures that never inform the reader that the individual is, in fact, African American. This was not the first such article, I've seen more than a few others. 
Please, fellow editors -- don't allow this to happen again. Cgingold (talk) 14:01, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  African American
