Talk:Yuko Kavaguti

message: Kawaguchi is a Japanese citizen. However, she represents Russia in international competition. Therefore, the infobox shows the country she represents, not the country in which she holds citizenship. An infobox is meant to be a quick way of getting specific information about a person. The text of the article explains that she is Japanese, but represents Russia. The infobox merely says which country she represents in competition. Furthermore, changing the infobox to citizenship would open up a huge can of worms because it can be hard to verify what citizenship a person holds, and some skaters have dual citzenship, but have only represented one country in competition. Kolindigo 21:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see why "Country" would necessarily mean "country of citizenship". IMHO, it just means country, as in the flag and the country they skate under.  If you want to suggest changes to the infobox, please do so at Template talk:Infobox Figure skater, so those people who are watching the infobox can contribute to the discussion. :) Kolindigo (talk) 04:41, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  another sample? 

message: "The song garnered positive reviews from music critics, many of whom cited it as a standout track on Back to Basics. Critics also praised its blend of old and modern R&B influences, as well as Aguilera's vocal performance."
We do not have a reliable source stating that the song's reviews were positive. We have several reviews that have been interpreted as "positive" and combined to a universal statement about "reviews from music critics".
"Many" is a weasel word. Critics praised something?  would these "critics" be?
Yes, the essay Wikipedia:What SYNTH is not says lots of things. The policy says "Do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources." The individual reviews are multiple sources. That the song received "positive" (or generally/mostly/universally positive/mixed-to-positive/mixed/average/mixed-to-negative/negative or anything else) is a conclusion not explicitly stated by a source. - SummerPhDv2.0 17:10, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Ganesha/Archive 1

message: IDOL: An image used as an object of worship. 
A false god. 
One that is adored, often blindly or excessively. 
Something visible but without substance. 
These are CLEARLY biased ideas of worship, based wholly on Judeo-Christian ideas of false religion. Unfortunately, the word idol both connotes and denotes a mistaken belief that the statue worship is seen as the finite existence of God, whereas Hindus believe that the murti/statue is but a mode of representation that acts as a point of focus. If Hindus believe the statue itself was God they would not immerse it in water, thereby drowning it. If you disagree, you should present a valid argument. Also, please see the Hinduism article and look at the end of the "What Is Hinduism?" section for a discussion of this.
Hindus themselves refer to their statues and images as 'murti.' A murti is as I have described above. While referencing the word murti, the reader is given the proper point of view of Hindu image worship, i.e. the Hindu definition of murti, and not a biased view that condemns without understanding. --LordSuryaofShropshire 07:09, Mar 27, 2004 (UTC)
:First, a statue is a likeness: you must have the original to create a likeness, since you haven't (presumably) seen the original Ganesha, the word statue is clearly out of the question. Are all Ganesha murti's alike? If not, you can't call them statues.
:Second, "false god" is only one sense of the word idol. Representation is a different sense. So there is no conflict. To make clear which sense is being used, you are free to make a link to murti and explain the Hindu concept of idol in that article.

Talk:Laxdæla saga

message: I believe that this article might have the wrong name. In Nordisk familjebok the saga is called Laxdœlasagan, with œ and not æ. It would be "correct" to replace æ (ä in modern swedish) with ae, but not œ (ö in modern swedish) to ae. The "correct" (or better) way to do that would be to replace it with oe. I don't know whether it has got it's own english name, but this is according to the article in Nordisk familjebok. You can reach me here on the swedish Wikipedia, if you need.
:You're right, this is originally 'œ' - but in the late Middle Ages in Iceland œ and æ merged, hence you'll see more than one spelling. Haukur 20:24, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems to me rather odd that the original character is œ. The normal way to spell it in Icelandic nowadays would be Laxdæla, the dæla part coming from the word dalur (valley) and a being, I would think, more related to æ than to œ. Was the word dalur originally dolur or something like that? I'm not doubting that you're right, at least I haven't looked into it myself to any extent, but I just find it very strange to believe. Could you either explain it, or tell me where you have this information from? --Sterio 16:35, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
