The article on :David White (actor) claims he's buried at Hollywood Forever, but that is not cited.

thread_title:  Merger proposal 

message: It appears that the move from ETV Network, and associated changes made by editor Devmahatma on 10 October 2015 to this article, were improvident.  The ETV Network was bigger than just "Colors", and Devmahatma has removed all references to the network.  In fact he has recreated a substanially similar article to one that was redirected from Colors (TV channel) at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Colors Kannada.  This appears to be an attempt to subvert the Afd process, and in the process remove an article that had better references. Compare the ETV Network article as it was on 18 August 2015, with the current article, and compare the current article with Colors (TV channel) of 1 Oct. 2015. --Bejnar (talk) 16:01, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is that there are two networks involved and Devmahatma (who is a sock of Jaswanthvijay) has caused a lot of pain. Colors is a brand owned by Viacom 18 and five channels owned by ETV Network (of their 20 or so) have the license to use that brand. I think I've fixed most of the problem by fixing the redirects to the correct two networks, a problem created by the sock farm moving and copy pasting content here and there.This is the list of the only five Colors channels that are part of the ETV network. I came to this mess courtesy of Devmahatma's posting at WP:AN a few hours ago. —SpacemanSpiff 14:06, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

message: I propose that Colors (Viacom 18) be merged into Colors TV.

Talk:Reliance Capital

message: There are a large number of Wikipedia articles about individual divisions/interests of Reliance that rely heavily on primary sources and are often promotional. I think many of them can be consolidated. First I'd like to suggest Reliance General Insurance be merged here. Out of the sources provided on that page, about half are primary sources. This is a routine earnings announcement, this is an interview and the other two are about Reliance Capital, rather than its Reliance General Insurance interests. That page starts off "Reliance General Insurance is.... a part of Reliance capital....[a part] of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group" It's a division of a division.

(I didn't check the ones that have sources, I assume they're okay.)  An edit war about a few entries has been brought to my attention; as far as I'm concerned, these entries should stay out until they are reliably sourced.

The Grapevine is a stretch of Interstate 5 in the Gorman area, 100 miles (160 km) north of Grapevine Hill.
''
I've never heard of a Grapevine Hill in that area. Where would it be? In the Palos Verdes area? I always assumed that they took a really long drive in the song "Hot Rod Lincoln" and Grapevine Hill that is referred to is the U.S. 99 section.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.176.175.210 (talk) 22:00, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Pinus longaeva

message: The referenced article says "Although a single tree trunk can become at most about 600 years old, the spruces had survived by pushing out another trunk as soon as the old one died...."  This sounds like a colony-type plant like Pando.  The Bristlecone pine trunks are assayed to 4000+ yrs age. Dan Watts (talk) 19:42, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not a botanist, but it doesn't strike me as quite the same thing as Pando. The oldest root has itself been dated to about 8000 years old. I would call a root a part of an individual organism, even if the trunks are more temporary. What defines a tree? Granted, the trunk is what we supra-surface organisms notice most of the time, but isn't a root an important part of a tree? And so wouldn't a root that has been growing and maturing for 8000 years represent a single organism rather than a colony? In the case of Pando, by contrast, I don't think anyone's claiming that any given root has persisted for thousands of years. I tried to get at the difference in my revision by means of the word individual to honor the trunk-centric human conception of trees. Jbening (talk) 01:11, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Motorcycle headlamp modulator

message: I have amended this article to correct factual inaccuracies related to motorcycle headlamp laws and headlamp modulators. There is no provision in FMVSS 108 or any other US Federal regulation requiring motorcycle headlamps to be operational when the engine is running, and never has been. This is a matter of voluntary industry action. 
Despite opinions popular amongst certain motorcycle advocacy groups, there are no scientific studies supporting the use of modulators to improve motorcycle conspicuity or safety. Fortunately, there is intensive ongoing research in the US and worldwide regarding optimal solutions to the problem of motorcycle conspicuity, especially in relation to increasing use of DRL on cars, trucks, buses, etc.
I have also removed unencyclopædic sections that were lifted verbatim from an instruction sheet packaged with a particular brand of headlamp modulator.

I only have a "B-" in 8th grade english, so cut me some slack. It should also be bumped up to mid-importance, I mean it is The highest town on the mountain range. It should also be under "start".
