Can I ask what your source is for Schlosser's date of birth, guys? I can't remember mine, but it says 24 Jan 1889, which is also in a number of websites. Have you used a CONTEMPORARY source...?

Talk:House of Kastrioti

message: The castriota family is from mati and the castle of scanderbeg in his origin is in mati named stellush  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.106.109.29 (talk) 17:14, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mati 

message: In 1395 the Castle of Croya was transferred from the Venetian Marco Barbarigo to a Constantine, ancestor of the Castriotis family. According to J.G. von Hahn this Constantine was Skanderbeg's grandfather, and according to Karl Hopf was his uncle. The Greek historian Margaritis G. Dimitsas has published a Venetian document related to the negotiations between Venice and this Constantine for the transfer of the Croya Castle. This is a part of the document:
"Mittatus nuncius qui sciat linguam graecam ad Constantinum, qui accepit Castrum Croye de potestate Marco Barbarigo, qui ipsum nostro nomine possidebat, ad procurandum, ui restituat hoc Castrum Venetis, pro securitate Durachii et districtis."
That is, a messenger who speaks Greek is sent to Constantine, to accept the Castle of Croya ...
Constantine is not refered as "Castriotis" in this document, leading the author (Dimitsas) to assume that he got the name Castriotis ("from the Castle") after the Croya Castle. 
This is published in the "On the origins and nationality of Georgius Castriotis Skenderbey", Athens 1877, p. 169. In Greek language.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.190.66.75 (talk) 20:36, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

message: @Maleschreiber, as per this edit, can you explain how a noble family whose last notable descendant died hundreds of years ago can possibly have an "official website"? In regards to the 'questionable' point; perhaps it was poorly put across by me. What's been listed in the infobox seems to be a random and slapdash listing of members, many of which have already been listed further down the page and don't have their own articles to begin with.

Talk:Rototilt

message: This is not a product advertisement, but an explanation for an item that is affecting an industrial approach to construction machinery, in effect a cutural shift, that started in Sweden, and now revolutionized the Nordic markets to the point of saturation, that nearly every machine is purchased with a Rototilt.
Because of this "cultural shift" in thinking, the demand for Rototilt has expanded outside the Nordic markets, and has caused similar effects in the US and Canada, therefore deserves an explanation on Wikipedia.
If you do a google search on Rototilt, the Swedish version of a Rototilt explanation will come up on page two as follows:
*Rototilt
However, as the site is Swedish, they will not allow an English version, so here it is!
:The article still reads like a product announcement or manufacturer's flyer, and there are no cited sources that are not from the manufacturer. This needs to be changed or the article is almost sure to be delted promptly. DES (talk) 23:32, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

To The Vandal:
Please try to do something more devious and subtle. What you did here was designed to attract attention to fellow editors immediately. The vandalism at Ghost Circles was of better design and of higher quality. NOBODY BEFORE ME NOTICED IT. In fact, the spelling flaws in the piece (which should normally be avoided due to the fact that it draws attention to the sections of writing which contain vandalism) were corrected by other editors who did not even notice that they were editing the sludge and poo of a vandal! 
(I do not recommend that you vandalize articles in any of the ways above. It is still wrong.)
(If I appear to be too pompous here, I apologize. I just was amazed that nobody noticed the vandalism here, and I am not attempting or intending to encourage the vandal.)

Talk:Jack Mason

message: I've moved the book to an inline citation for now - it is only being used once so there's no need for an alternative section for it. I've also reverted references back per CITEVAR and DATEVAR. If the article is re-written then whoever does so is more than welcome to do whatever they want to the citation style - assuming a significant number of citations are introduced. I've no problem with that and won't get precious about CITEVAR if that happens. To change two and leave the others as they are is, however, not really on - especially as it seems it will be more than a little while before anything's done here.

replies: text: Per CITEVAR and DATEVAR I'll move things back so that they match for now - nothing will get done on this for months at least and the article is a mess in its current state with multiple date and reference styles.

replies: text:  I am not sure about the spellings; I have not gotten that far into the series.  He has a point though, and ironically it is about the Sykes thing.  There is too much info there, namely about the stolen guitar, and the kidnapping.  These things may or may not be needed for a proper character intro, but if they are there, then a spoiler warning of some sort will be needed. Emry 06:57, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: First header

message: How do we want to handle spoilers?
I suggest we trim it up (aka take out the spoilers that are not an absolute must), and then move any spoilers that have to be there towards the bottom of the page and mark them as spoilers.  For instance, in the description of Ryuusuke, the entire last sentence is unneeded.  There is no requirement to tell people that he stole the guitar.  It is not integral to the readers understanding of the character.  It is however a plot element that some people would consider fairly major later in the series.
The line “Getting all the big breaks, Belle Ame seemed destined for greatness, until BECK destroyed their ride to fame, at the cost of being blacklisted in the music industry.” is not needed either.  In fact, this is the worst spoiler possible.  It would be just fine on a page devoted to an eppisode guide or a synopsis of the serries, but it is not good for a character list. 
The information on Sykes and John Lee Davis should be cleaned up a bit, but I think that the spoiler template should be added to the sections holding those two and the animals.  The two guys are far enough into the serries that there is no way to include them without spoilers, but we need to play damage control there.  As for the animals, because of the role they play, they need to be included but again are spoiler magnets.
