message: "Advocate T. K. Krishnan, a Communist Leader of Thrissur and Nadakkal Parameswaran Pillai, or Coffee House Pillai the State Secretary of the India Coffee Board Labour Union and a thrown-out employee of ICH were the co-founders of present ICHs in Kerala."
Not sure what's going on here. Is Advocate T. K. Krishnan a Communist Leader of Thrissur and Nadakkal Parameswaran Pillai?  Does "Nadakkal Parameswaran Pillai" mean "Coffee House Pillai"? Was someone named Coffee House Pillai simultaneously the State Secretary of the India Coffee Board Labour Union and a thrown-out employee of ICH? 
Not trying to be contrary, I just don't know how all the words in that graf are meant to interact. Commas might help, but I think the whole sentence needs recasting for clarity.

You may be right about the need to distinguish (although I had guided myself mainly by the secondary charcter of names such as the PSLI to whatever party they were applied); however, the page you created is rather redundant to that other page, and, if you think it is necessary, I will rewrite it as a disambiguation page for all variations of the name in English and Italian.

Talk:Jmol

message: From the perspective of someone with absolutely no familiarity with this subject, I assumed "JMOL" was an acronym, but couldn't figure out how the name was derived.  After sniffing around various links, I'm guessing it's (J)ava + (.mol) (as in "Molfile",) apparently the term for a metadata file relating to a molecule.
Perhaps this could be clarified, e.g.:
Jmol ((J)ava + (.mol) is an open-source Java viewer for chemical structures in 3D[How to cite Jmol|http://jmol.sourceforge.net/#How%20to%20cite%20Jmol].  Jmol returns a 3D representation of a molecule that may be used as a teaching tool, or for research in chemistry and biochemistry...

message: Citation Add fail: I attempted to address the "citation needed" note on the location of Newton Earp's grave by applying the Find-a-Grave link that already exists under External Links as a citation. I was unable to do this without mucking up the page (I've been away from editing for a couple of years) so I had to revert.

message: The quality of the writing at the end of this article, in the "Hot Type..." and "Art Nouveau..." sections, is really poor.  Not sure what happened there but those two need a rewrite at the very least.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.122.9.38 (talk) 04:58, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur as to the truly poor quality of these sections. I am not sufficiently expert to do this justice, but I write well and certainly know how to cite, so perhaps when I teach my Digital Multimedia course this Fall I will tackle them if they are still in such deplorable condition. The line "The 90 years between 1890 and 1980 coined typography until now" makes absolutely no sense to me at all, and I hesitate to venture a rewrite because it is unclear to me what the author was trying to convey. Citations throughout the entire article are weak as well. A final thought: I don't actually know Dr. Luc Devroye (http://luc.devroye.org/fonts.html) but he would be my candidate to perhaps do the most justice to a rewrite of these sections.

Talk:Mudflow

message: The claim that the Saidmarreh landslide is the largest known prehistoric landslide seems dubious, to put it mildly. The Heart Mountain Detachment had a volume likely 100 times greater.
More generally, superlatives sections like this one tend to suffer from poor sourcing and I am inclined to think they should be avoided. "Among the largest ..." or better yet "Examples of very large landslides include ..." are safer, easily sourced, and not as likely to be disputed or rendered obsolete by new discoveries. 
Another problem with this section is that it is not at all clear the large landslides mentioned are actually mudflows. Not all landslides are mudflows, and debris flows are definitely not mudflows -- there are actually precise definitions of each. --Kent G. Budge (talk) 18:00, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, and the Seimareh / Seymareh landslide ("Saidm..." should be avoided as I was told by locals) was generally not a mudflow, but a giant rock avalance, see Ilam province#Landslides and AGU blogs. I think the paragraph in Mudflow should be removed completely and the information be added to Ilam province#Landslides. In succession, the redirection "Saidmarreh landslide" could also be adapted.

Talk:Timeline of pre–United States history

message: I have a suggestion, since at this point the British North American Colonies were just that one unit, why does the page omit other import events in British North America just because they occurred in the territory in what would become the nation-state of Canada? Did the 13 Atlantic colonies exist independent of the others, at this time no. I understand this is US history but it did not start in a vacuum. Furthermore, the Atlantic Colonies themselves existed in rather isolation from one another up until and durin the Rev. including a large amount of self-sov. and autonomy. My suggestion is that they should be listed under on category as British North American Colonial History until the Am. Revolution or War of Independence and 1782. currently it is very Americentric and does not serve history well.
