Talk:Jesse Ed Davis

message: The slide guitarist on "Statesboro Blues" from the first eponymous Taj Mahal album (recorded Aug/1967) was Jesse Ed Davis.  This was the model and inspiration for Duane Allman whose (much more famous) version with the Allman Brothers was recorded several years later (Mar/1971).

message: I deleted the paragraph about Marty Angelo, because it conveys no significant information about Davis. It is also badly written. The deleted paragraph is the following:
Prison minister and former band manager Marty Angelo writes about his experiences with Jesse Ed Davis in his book Once Life Matters: A New Beginning (; pages 85−87). Angelo states he was introduced to Davis by drummer Gary Mallaber in 1972 while Davis was living in Marina Del Rey, California. Davis then introduced Angelo to John Lennon, who in turn introduced Angelo to heroin.

Talk:Tula, Russia

message: I added Albany, NY as Tula's Sister City (info can be found on the Sister Cities International web site). I also added a link to Tula's official web site.  I would recommend adding a few subcategories about Tula such as Sport, Education, and Culture.  There is some helpful info on the official site that can be used to create those sections.  It would make Tula's page look more like those of other cities and would flesh it out.  For instnace, under the Culture section, I would add museums. There are several, with small museums such as the Samovar museum, Museum of the Pryanik, and others like the Yasnaya Polyana, the Tula Kremlin, Tula Museum of Weapons, the "Zooexotarium" and so on.  Under sports I would add stadium info and their soccer/football team Arsenal.  Those are only a few examples.  Anyway, just some suggestions --Diet Herbal Tea 16:37, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Currently the lead says
:Regions with polar climate cover over 20% of the Earth. The sun shines 24 hours in the summer, and barely ever shines at all in the winter (see midnight sun and polar night). 
The second sentence is absurd. It confuses the regions with a polar climate with the area right at the North (or South) Pole. In the polar region away from the pole itself, the midnight sun does not last all summer, and polar night does not last all winter. Moreover, areas with a polar climate that are outside the polar region (e.g. much of Greenland), never experience midnight sun or 24-hour night.

Talk:Winchester Model 1912

message: "Unlike the machine guns, however, the aiming of the Model 12 shotguns made it much more accurate in the typical combat usage, with many claims for one shot, one kill versus the more wasteful suppressing fire from machine guns."
This seems pretty POV without a source.  00 Buckshot from a cylinder bore shotgun isn't very effective at greater than 40 or 50 yards due to the pattern size at range. It is certainly possible to shoot single shots or short bursts accurately at longer ranges (say out to 100 yards) even with a STEN gun. 
I'm not trying to trash the concept of combat shotguns in general, but they can stand on their own merits for CQB rather than claim that they have an accuracy advantage.

And Kareeser, the point of a stemplot is to sort data so that it can be anlyzed quicker. It was mainly used prior to computers and spreadsheets, but it is still an easy way to sort simple data into a more coherent and easier-to-read format.
