message: Another contributor added an  tag to the article.  When instantiated an unbalanced tag directs readers to a fuller explanation on the talk page.  This contributor never got around to offering an explanation for this tag.  I suggest this is an irresponsible use of the tag.  If the tagger doesn't explain their concern good faith contributors can't know when those concerns have been adequately addressed.
If no one offers an explanation of this tag, the next time I visit this article I will remove it.

message: I reverted this excision which seems to be based on a misunderstanding of the value of red-links.  What the excising contributor should have done was to have clicked on the "what links here" button of Camp_Echo_(Iraq).  If they had done so they would have found the red-link had instances in two real articles: Polish zone in Iraq and Multinational Division Central-South.  As such the hat-note was valid and useful and should not have been removed.  Geo Swan (talk) 16:37, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Arnold Lewis Raphel

message: This article describes Arnold Raphel as a "politician." A "politician" is quite a different animal from a career Foreign Service officer, which is what Mr. Raphel apparently was for over twenty years. In addition, this article states: "In 1981, Raphel served as the Special Assistant to Secretary of State Edmund Muskie." Since Muskie's tenure in that office ended (at least as I understand it) on January 20, 1981 with the inauguration of Ronald Reagan, that would mean that -- assuming this article is correct -- Mr. Raphel was Muskie's special assistant for less than three weeks. Perhaps the starting date is a bit off here? In any event, Muskie's own time in office was less than a year.

message: "Parts of this article (those related to the Hope for Eternal Life and later rounds) are outdated. Please update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. Please see the talk page for more information," someone put, in a box, at the very top of the article in 2010.  And they were correct to so do, except that they so did in January of 2010, and there wasn't really anything to write about 'til October of that year.  Still, the article is clearly dated, and so it's right to call attention to that.
Now, in April of 2012, as I write this, there has not only been something published regarding the "Hope for Eternal Life" 11th session, but they've all since reconvened (in October of 2011) for their 12th session.  So, yes, some serious updating is now in order... on the 12th session, now, too.
So I'll jump on all that, and see what I can do; and when it's finally updated, I'll remove, if it's okay with everyone, the January 2010 note at the top about the article being out of date.
That will still leave, though, the April 2008 complaint about citations... which is also valid.  I'll see what I can do about that, after I get the updating done...

thread_title:  Name of the band 

message: Discography is a little confusing. How many unique albums were issued as Derek and the Dominoes albums? "Live recordings" has 4 bullet items but "live at the Johnny Cash Show" was not an album, and then it says was "released as part of the deluxe edition of the reissue of their debut album." Maybe more directly it should say "as part of Layla 40th anniversary deluxe edition."
In existing discography paragraph "Sessions for the second album, Olympic Studios, ..." we see that Crossroads box set and Layla album's 40th anniversary deluxe edition may contain "some" of the songs that are then listed.
What songs are on which albums? 
Seems like the reissue/box set albums have unique additional music. I suggest reissue/box set albums should be listed as unique albums in the discography, so you can see for each of these albums what unique songs/tracks are in that album.
