Roy was rushed to the University of Vermont Medical Center on Tuesday for emergency surgery due to complications from a procedure he had in September. His parents, Lee and Brenda Roy, and his sister Tobi were by his side when he passed away Thursday afternoon.

A family spokesperson said the 45-year-old died in Vermont from a complication from a procedure he need to maintain the quality of life he was living as a quadriplegic.
SportsCenter 5's Mike Lynch reported that Roy was recently diagnosed with bladder cancer and had undergone treatment at Dana Farber.

thread_title:  Some things that might be worth adding 

message: I am planning on making changes to this article very soon. The majority of what I plan to do is add information; I think what is already on this page is very useful and I plan to keep all of it, though I believe there are many content gaps. I will be updating information on the Travis Roy Foundation, as well as adding a section on Roy's public speaking career. There was also much to be added about his various honors, as well as his personal life. Outside of content, there are many small grammatical errors that I plan to fix as well as citation errors and gaps. Finally, with everything else added, I plan to update the lead section to better reflect Roy's life as a whole, as well as adding a picture of him.

Template talk:Hindu festivals

message: Take a look at these templates:
* (top left)
* (bottom)
* (top right)
* (top right)
* (left)
with the :Image:HinduSwastika.svg displayed prominently. Honestly, of all of Hinduism's symbols' did this one have to get "headline" billing on these templates? Alternatives are aplenty if one were to look around on articles listed on  where there are dozens of less offensive symbols that could be chosen for the same purpose. While the swastika may be ok with some Hindus, it should not be flashed around "in all innocence" because for the rest of the world that was caught up in World War II it was the symbol of literal EVIL, DEATH and DESTRUCTION emanating from the Nazis. It was Hitler's personal diabolical "symbol of choice" and for that reason it is VERY far from neutral, no matter in what context it is used. It violates Wikipedia:Civility to have it displayed in such an "in your face" fashion on these Hindu templates, giving it a dubious "place of pride" it does not deserve. Need one say more?

Talk:29th Dáil

message: The tables 'TDs by party' and 'TDs by constituency' are records of TDs and their party affiliation (or lack of) at Election time. Do NOT modify it if a TD changes his/her party/status. 
The helpfully titled 'Changes' table at the end of the article records these changes. 
For example, people keep updating it to change the status of Niall Blaney from Independent to Fianna Fail (FF). This means that the table would read that Blaney was elected as a FF TD in 2002 whereas he didn't join FF until 2006.
Repeat the tables are NOT a record of the current status of the Dail, they are a historical record of the 2002 general election. Snappy56 23:20, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Arbroath and Forfar Railway

message: I see that another editor has altered 5ft 0in to have a non-breaking space between the 5 and the ft. Other editors are very welcome and are perfectly entitled to do this.
However I was rather surprised that the 0in remains without the space, and several other feet-and-inches dimensions were unchanged. The WP: guidelines on handling dimensions are silent on dealing with this; 10[space]in, 53[space]ft etc etc, but no help on feet and inches. I would have thought that the only sensible possibilities are 5ft[space]0in (which I was using here) or 5[space]ft[space]0[space]inches ... perhaps all the spaces need to be non-breaking space code; or maybe just the ones between 5 and ft and between 0 and in? I can't see the point of 5[space]ft[space]0in. Maybe the other editors can suggest a logic for this?
Whatever, it must be obvious that the article should be consistent.

replies: text:  Upon reflection I would question why it needs to be re-inserted and would ask what value it provides to the subject? War of the Worlds is a (enjoyable) work of fiction: so, changing the subject, if I wish to know about Windmills what value do I get from reading in the windmill article that the fictional character Don Quixote attacked them? But windmills could be usefully placed in the Don Quixote article and it adds value to that article. Now if you were to add a War of the Worlds reference on the basis that HG Wells considered the Royal Gunpowder Mills were well known to his readers in the 1890s, but they are not well known now, then that might add value. Otherwise what value does a simple statement, that they are mentioned in the "War of the Worlds", add?Pyrotec 16:16, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

At one time the museum was only open weekends and school holidays (perhaps it still is), having originally been open full time, due to lower visitor numbers than anticipated. As a Restricted Defence Establishment, I would argue that the general public were less likely to have known what went on inside the site after WW II than they did before WW II.Pyrotec 11:03, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
