Talk:Breakthrough (board game)

message: "invented by Dan Troyka", lol, we played this game in 1993, or maybe even earlier, and i am sure other
people played it with exactly same rules. We were early chess beginners and used it to practice pawn
endings. (super basic ones -- who gets a queen first).

message: By the rules presented, if the game ends when _one_ of the players does not have a move (which would be typical for turn-based two player games) a draw is possible when one player loses all pieces while the other player has not yet reached the goal -- either the rules of winning are underspecified, or the comment that a draw is impossible is wrong.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.156.82.87 (talk) 21:18, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

Template talk:Royal Bank of Canada

message: I propose that we design templates for all the big five banks.  The proposal downplays the director list and instead focuses on assisting readers navigate the different parts of the financial groups.  A table mapping out the big five was added here. 
The Wikipedia articles on these companies, and financial services in general in Canada, are currently of very poor quality.  I think the first step is to start organizing the information.  Each of the brands mentioned in the table linked to earlier in this paragraph are all worthy of a stand-alone article given their significance.

thread_title: Superior central banking system

message: It's kind of ridiculous to say Aldrich was a progressive. He was the chief defender of the banking and railroad interests at the expense of the agrarian interests in the south and west, which was the main political divide of his time. There were people who called themselves "progressive" on both sides of that divide, but Aldrich was against anti-trust and labor unions, and in favor of dear money and strict constructionism. I don't think that's consistent with the "progressive" label.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.34.177.182 (talk) 16:11, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Ipotane

message: I think a non-native English speaker started this page.  There is no English, Greek, or Latin word "Ipotane".  To have "Silenus" redirect to an article entitled "Ipotane" is misleading.

message: According to this post I came across from another individual across the net that there is a possibility at one point Medusa once had a Horse's head and may have some possible archaic connection to Pegasus (since it was a horse creature).
EDIT -
I've located the book "The Cults of the Greek States" by By Lewis Richard Farnell, the page in question is PAGE 57 that describes this connection. Lewis Richard Farnell FBA (1856–1934) was a classical scholar and Oxford academic, where he served as Vice-Chancellor from 1920 to 1923. 
I hope I helped in some small way to improve the article for Ipotane if there is indeed some kind of connection.
However I'm starting to suspect that the idea of Ipotane might be some kind of odd hoax someone made up, but either way finding this page might actually improve Medusa Article alittle.74.124.162.10 (talk) 12:03, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Talk:History of Spiritism

message: I see some problems with the following phrase but I don't know exactly how to improve it:
:"This claim, and the nature of the revelation on which  he based his work, caused a great deal of controversy between Spiritism and other religions."
Firstly, "...the nature of the revelation... " sounds like everyone agree that he based his work on a "revelation". Atheistic people, for once, would not believe in any such thing as a revelation. Secondly, "...caused a great deal of controversy" sounds vague and, unless we can source it, we shouldn't use it.
Please, take that constructively. I would have changed this first part myself, but I simply couldn't think of a good wording. And by requiring sources, I'm not saying I think that phrase is false. Best regards, --Abu Badali 02:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

This involves a comparison of two different charts with two different methodologies and whatever your definition of "success" is.
Was one more the result of airplay vs. sales? Did one country's airplay result in more single sales vs. album sales? Did one peak quickly and burn out quickly while another had less intensive airplay for a more prolonged period of time? Was the single release more heavily promoted in one country vs. the other for strategic marketing?
