Talk:Susan Hiller

message: Hi. I would like to contest this pages deletion. Susan Hiller is a noteworthy British artist who has pieces held in one of the countries' most important gallaries, the Tate. Okay, the page needs more work, and I'll do that, but I most certainly think that it should not be deleted just like this. {Midnightblueowl (talk) 17:26, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Kirkfield Park

message: The last contested date seems to be some sort of template that attaches to the last provincial election in that year.  The code specifically mentions provincial election.  This riding was contested in a by election earlier this month... Should the last contested date read 2019 or 2022? Jethro 82 (talk) 14:35, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Last Contested. 

message: I'm not sure if this has been talked about before elsewhere, but is there any reason we exclude declined ballots from turnout? Elections Manitoba seems to exclude both declined ballots and rejected ballots from turnout, giving the 36.25% figure only including valid votes. My question here is do we include both rejected or declined (as we do with Ontario provincially) OR do we only include rejected (because the template doesn't account for declined) OR do we include neither and follow Election Manitoba's valid vote figure? --PoliceClarity (talk) 15:39, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I usually lump declined with rejected when I put together an election table, and add that to the valid votes to calculate the turnout. -- Earl Andrew - talk 18:58, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I would agree with this way of doing things, it seems like the way that allows for the most consistency across the CANelect templates. In this case I'll change "rejected" from 9 to 11. PoliceClarity (talk) 14:52, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Janusz Kaczmarek

message: Previous version of this article was very unreliable. It suggested that Kaczmarek was detained without essential reasons. It's not true. There are strong evidences that he actually falsly testified before prosecutors and made difficulties in the investigation concerning the leaking out the informations about the action of CBA against Andrzej Lepper. Court's decision of September 6 concerned only the neccessity of his detention and irregularities during it. Court did not declare by any way that Kaczmarek is innocent  CarlosPn (Talk) March 11, 2008 19:38 UCT  —Preceding comment was added at 19:38, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Krzysztof Skubiszewski

message: This article makes a very strong (and highly controversial in Poland) accusation against Mr Skubiszewski - that he was an informant of the secret police in the Communist times. It cites Institute of National Remembrance (INR, Polish: IPN) as its source, but none of the references actually cites any publication or official document from the INR itself. Instead they cite just secondary sources, namely publications in openly politically biased blogs and media. I think a primary source should be used to uphold such a strong claim. Secondly, reference 5 quoutes so called Macierewicz's list. This source is even more controversial as many people placed on this list have fought in the courts against this and won. I don't think it should be considered a credible source. Powerek38 (talk) 13:51, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Since 1961 he was informator of communist Służba Bezpieczeństwa codename "K." and in 1965 was secret collaborator of communist SB codename "Kosk" (till 1969). (Maciej Marosz, Skubiszewski i łotry z emigracji, Gazeta Polska 17-11-2009).

Talk:Funk rock

message: I think King's-X should definitely be in this category. What do you think?
========================================================================
I do NOT think that this article should be deleted, just because it lacks a few references. Funk rock is an important genre in its own right, that deserves its own article. The article on "funk" is already very long. Why not simply link the articles on "funk" and "funk rock" to one another ?
In my opinion the article on "funk" should concentrate on that "funk" which isn't "funk rock".

message: I reformulated a few sentences, added information about philosophical interests and work, founding and collaboration with "Arka" and the "Center for Political Thought" (OMP) and a few political career details. I've also added sources and removed the whole paragraph about the law suit, that
is still underway and is an anecdote, rather than an important piece of information. The sentence "Known for publications described by extreme left-wing as extreme right-wing, such as "Nie lubię tolerancji" ("I don't like tolerance")" was also deleted, because it is not a statement of fact, but a impressionistic generalization. In the proposed version the text is limited to facts and devoid of arbitrary judgments or politically motivated innuendos.
