Talk:Transgender transition

message: Another article exists on Wikipedia, Transitioning (transgender), which is on the same topic as this article.  Both articles are very short.  Therefore, I think the articles should be merged in to one.  This article also needs a lot of style editing, citations, and NPOVing, which I will continue to work on, but feel free to help. Andrea Parton 02:33, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think mergeing this article into Transitioning (transgender) would be very appropriate unless I'm missing some nuance of language or culture. If I am then both articles need to clearly differentiate themselves and highlight the differences between the two. Benjiboi 21:46, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge? 

message: This entire section is misleading.  A person born with Harry Benjamin Syndrom (HBS a.k.a. Transexuality) is NOT Transgendered.  A transsexual person and a transgender are two entirely different situation.  HBS is a medical condition resulting from the dissonance between brain sex and the physical anatomical sex that were presence at birth.  Gender is a social construct based on society expected gender roles and visible gender presentation.  Transition of a person born with HBS is an intricate path of counselling, hormones, surgery, and a final, permanent transition into their correct sex.  Transition for the transgendered involves an outward change in presentation and a transition to a new gender role, one that can be reversed with a change of clothing -- there is no change to their anatomical sex.
This article is another attempt by the transgenderists to merge themselves in the public eye with the medical condition of people born transsexual and the legal protections that parallel a physical change of sex.  We are not the same.  The big T umbrella is a politically correct term that replaces the realities of transsexuality with the "everyone is the same" theories of ivory tower university sociology.

*How original. Usually, we get people coming into the talk pages of transgender articles claiming that none of TS, CD, drag kings and queens, etc. are transgendered and that the term should be reserved for transexuals or perhaps intersexed people. To isolate transexuals from the rest of the transgender community while confirming that everybody else who is transgendered belongs in that group is certainly a different approach. I believe that, in some ways you are correct in regards of TSes who seek to transition and then live in stealth while denying their physical sex of birth. The existence of that subgroup within TSes is well documented and could viably be a sub-section within this article. You should realise, however, that the definition that you postulating is not consistent with general usage in the majority of the english speaking world. --AliceJMarkham 03:10, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pope Clement XIII

message: Question - why is the painting of Clement 12 on this page?   Isn't this an article on Clement 13?  -lg
:In spite of the confusing misnaming of the Image, this is indeed the plump Rezzonico pope, Clement XIII, in Pompeo Batoni's portrait in Galleria Venezia, Rome. His profile appears on a medal struck in his honour: illustrated here. He might be mistaken for his predecessor Benedict XIV, but never for the lean-faced, sharp-chinned Clement XII. Some generous soul might enter the painter's name into the template: I don't know how, and template-makers never think of such details. --Wetman 07:47, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

message: "Rezzonico was notorious for his rampant nepotism throughout his pontificate." A version of this statement appeared in the lede back in 2004 and has since slipped into the body of the article. I can't find any evidence for this in the sources or other mention of nepotism in the article, so I'm taking it out. Tigerboy1966  10:05, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Bambi (character)

message: Is there any good reason why the entire plots of the 'Bambi' and 'Bambi II' movies are included here in the Bambi (character) article?  To avoid duplication, these should be placed in the articles for those movies, then links provided here.  This article should describe the character only.  I see a lot of work went into this, any comments before I start moving stuff around?  --Bridgecross 17:11, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems to be basic fare for character articles to include the plots of the media they were in, but in a wording that focuses on the character. Although the plot summaries in this article could use shortening. Blue Phoenix 21:11, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It may be basic fare but it's not good Wikipedia style Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_%28writing_about_fiction%29.  A movie page should not just reiterate the plot (Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information), and a page for just one character should especially not recap the entire plot. --Bridgecross 20:31, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I think the reason the recaps here are the way they are, is because Bambi is the main character and present in nearly every scene of the movie. Therefore, an outline of his role in the movie is tantamount to a recap of almost, if not all of, the movie. Whatever you decide on this matter, I am thankful that you have seen fit to wait until everyone has had their say. --Ben 10 15:43, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's/Canon name spelling debate

message: So... does anyone have any conclusive proof either way? The katakana can conceivably be either ji or zi. Shiroi Hane 08:21, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Have seen some Japanese source (not sure if it was official material or not) that did have it romanized as "Raising Heart". It seem like レイジング can be appropriately used for both English words "raging" and "raising". While neither of them makes too much sense in English (as with many English terms in mahou shoujo), I thought at first when I saw the "Raising" romanization that "Raging" worked better, though this may be bias from being exposed to the fansubbed version. I guess if "Raising" has some officiality to it than it should be kept. EmperorBrandon 00:23, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

text: However, the material included with the DVDs for A's uses Raising Heart. --Remy Suen 16:29, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  It also uses Exelion and Laevatein as opposed to Excelion and Lævateinn. If we're to go by what was printed on the cards that come with the DVDs, I suppose we should be consistent about it... Though I half suspect "raging" was what they wanted, regardless of what they actually said. =P 82.25.193.246 19:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Raging Heart/Raising Heart 

message: Just curious, how was the decision between the two names made?  Both match the katakana fairly well and both make sense as names.  Lævateinn is of course a famous sword out of norse mythology, while Levantine would be a reference to the famed Damascus Steel and matches the actual katakana slightly better.--Symmetry 00:03, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:James Edward Walsh

message: I am unable to identify the source of the May 2011 comments on the inadequacy of this article, but they are grossly unfair.  The article is a commendable brief account of the life and career of a significant and somewhat heroic figure whose story at the time of his release made international news. My knowledge of him is related mainly to numerous news stories that appeared at that time.   The article is appropriately referenced, and is obviously written by someone who knows what he is talking about (or at least there is no sound reason to assume that he does not have his facts straight).  The points of alleged dispute themselves read like spam submitted perhaps by someone with an axe to grind; on a single day, apparently, one user decided to throw every available criticism at the article. I do not recommend that this article be pulled for any of these supposed inadequacies, and I do recommend that someone look into the source of the complaint with a suspicion regarding motivation.Brossj54 (talk) 16:54, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

message: The Lakers "a professional basketball team originally based in Detroit and later Minneapolis." could be rather confusing to someone unknowing of their history, or perhaps outside the U.S. that isn't familiar with NBA teams. One could put "a professional basketball team playing in the National Basketball Association" because the fact that the Lakers were originally located in Detroit (as the Gems) is extremely obscure and shouldn't be part of a one-line description of the team.

Talk:Cert pool

message: With all due respect to Newyorkbrad, his earlier edits that Justice Powell helped instigate the cert pool were unsupported by citation, and find no support in The Brethren (which claims only that Powell thought it was a good idea). This is not to say that it's false, but we are now told that "[t]he threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is whether material is attributable to a reliable published source, not whether it is true." See Wikipedia:Attribution. I think that policy is spinach, and renders Wikipedia absolutely worthless if taken in the slightest bit seriously, but nevertheless, it has apparently been accepted as "an official policy on the English Wikipedia." Lamentable. However, in view of it, I've therefore removed this statement from the introduction and changed the manner in which it is addressed in the main text to permit a citation required tag.

message: The photo that purports to demonstrate upwelling is both uncharacteristic and poorly captioned.  A better photo showing a fogbank along the shore is in order.  I corrected the part of the caption that erroneously referred to water upwelling from the ocean bottom---upwelling is only from sub surface waters; if it actually came from the seafloor, it would be nearly freezing.  The part that refers to the lack of clouds in connection with upwelling having something to do with "lack of evaporation" is false.  In this instance, there's an offshore wind evident which, since it originates over land, is dry.  The more common situation, and the one which better demonstrates the most common effect of upwelling would show how it condenses moisture into low clouds. Tmangray (talk) 06:16, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
