thread_title: Survey

message: Just to cool heads here a little, I think we should change the designation to Disputed Territories and so it won't have either political overtone. We cannot call it Palestine because that term is too loaded an not encyclopedic. Valley2city 18:39, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Mount Hermon is not in Israel, the West Bank, or the Gaza Strip. It was presented in the article as if it was in Israel, but the mountain is completely within Syria and Lebanon. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 15:44, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

message: Shame for a wasted topic.
Yes, the Israeli occupied Golan Heights & piece of Mt Hermon belong here for all logical reasons, but it won't happen. Cheers, Cerberus!
Yes, this should be a developed article, not an abandoned project. Hail to you all, 24/7 activists!
Yes, Israel/Palestine would perfectly do. May you get pinched by the borders and stung by the flag poles, you... know who!

Talk:Mawile

message: It looks like Mawile isn't quite as useless as some people are making it out to be. I've seen it used several times on Pokémon Battle Revolution, in which it can hold its own. It's one of the Pokémon to have benefited the most from the 4th-generation benefits: It's acquired the Iron Head and Sucker Punch attacks, both of which do considerable damage. It has a Base of 85 in both Attack and Defense, which means it becomes a physical barrier with just a single Iron Defense. (Sableye...not so much.)
I can look for YouTube videos with Mawile if someone wants me to. Ron Stoppable 09:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Kanaloa

message: Cacti are very cool. I like cacti because they are prickly and unhuggable. As much as I ADORE cacti they are not huggable. They will hurt you and puncture you. Even kill you. Because I love cacti so much I will give you fax.
-They carry water.
-Their spines are modified leaves, not thorns.
-The water inside can stand extreme temperatures.
-Cactus can understand and hear whats going on around them.
-Flowers grow on cacti.
That is all.

Talk:Salt shaker

message: I removed the phrase stating that salt shakers are used to sprinkle salt "onto a plate alongside (or more commonly, but impolitely, onto)" food. I confess my ignorance of any social setting in which sprinkling salt on food is inappropriate, and, more to the point, consider statements about what is/isn't polite to be a tad POV. 
I also removed the assertion that a good salt shaker should have a molding "like Cutco's knives" which also seemed POV. In general, this article seems like it might benefit from having some sources to back up its statements. Here's hoping I've been helpful.

Category talk:Theodore Roosevelt

message: It seems that someone made this category a subcategory of every category that Theodore Roosevelt is a member of. That makes no sense to me at all - if there's a point to this category, it's to group together disparate articles that are related to TR - the subcat listing doesn't help at all doing that.

Talk:Junichi Masuda

message: In the lead paragraph and the infobox, he's described as (among other things) a "video game director" and there's a link to that page title.  However, it's just a disambiguation page which lists among the choices, some of the other things this individual is already identified as--such as producer and programmer.  Since there is no specific article for "video game director" should this link be changed to one of the specific jobs listed on that disambiguation page (such as technical director or creative director) or should it just not be linked at all?

thread_title:  Built-in Concealed Feature 

message: In what way is this game even close to resembling a real-time strategy game?! Mikademus 19:32, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it's strategic in that you queue up orders to dispatch units like tanks, men, etc. You have to keep in mind the order they move in (keep men behind tanks that tend to pause when firing for example), and you choose elements of the opponent's offense/defence to take out. It's real-time in that it's not a turn based game.123.51.3.24 15:09, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you extract resources? Do you build bases? Do you reserch technologies? Do you produce units and the give direct orders to them? A game of strategic nature in real-time is not necessarily a RTS game, which is a specific genre. 130.243.247.166 12:09, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

The implication of this page is that Adrian Gurvitz wrote No Secrets' "Kids in America", but I do not know who wrote it.  Kim Wilde's "Kids in America" was written by Marty and Ricky Wilde.  Could someone who knows please fix, either by adding a new page for No Secrets' "Kids in America", or making clear that No Secrets covered the Wilde original.  Thanks.

Talk:Macho Women with Guns

message: This was supposed to be a quick little entry on a little game, but it turned out that there's a lot more published for MWWG than I realized.  This is a tough game to write about without sounding like a lunatic.
I admit that a couple of citations in the History section are Usenet articles, contrary to  Wikipedia:Reliable sources, but they're the best citations I've found so far.  I believe them to be legit, because they appear to be from the game's auther/publisher, none of the information in them is really worth forging, and nothing in his posts is contradicted by better sources.  If somebody can find better sources, they're welcome to replace mine.
Two dates are missing from the History section: Date of publication for the German version (I think it was 1994ish, which is why it's mentioned with the Italian and Portuguese translations) and the release date of Simtac's miniature line (Judging by their archived website, the latest possible intro date is 2001).

Talk:Lisa Fernandez

message: The NCAA does not award All-American or All-Region honors.  That is done by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA).  Lisa was a 4-time first team NFCA All-American. I also corrected information about where the 1996 Olympic softball competition was held.  It wasn't held in Atlanta. It was held about 120 miles away in Columbus, Georgia. The NFCA uses the site of the 1996 Olympics for the NFCA Lead-Off Classic.  Finally, Lisa has been an assistant-coach but never a head coach at UCLA.  As accomplished and valuable to UCLA as she is, this difference matters a great deal so we can't just say she is the coach at UCLA.  Sue Enquist is the head coach at UCLA as such is credited for all records.

Talk:Episcopa Theodora

message: The following sentence from the text, "Although there is no recorded consecrator of Episcopa Theodora due to dubious or spotty historical records, it is necessary to consider that female ordination, if it truly existed in the 9th century, would most likely have been repeated and sanctioned by the Roman Catholic Church or the Eastern Orthodox Churches, yet neither permits female ordination to the present day,"   contains POV statements, 'dubious or spotty historical records' and 'it is necessary to consider', and 'would most likely have been' and then presents an illogical inference, that an act would have been repeated or sanctioned.  The tradition of only two branches of Christianity is being considered; 'down to the present day', there are branches of Christianity which do permit female ordination. This is 'begging the question.' 
One may look at the issue of married bishops for a real parallel.  There was a time when all bishops were married, and the fact is well attested.
