Talk:USCGC Durable

message: This is in way of trying to gather information regarding the rescue of one John Thomas Gay, Jr. by the Durable in the 1980's.  We are trying to piece together his story of lost at sea for 16 days.  If anyone has information of how I can track down the particulars please respond to beejself@peoplepc.com.

message: The HH-65 Dolphin did not go into service until 1985, according to WP.  Was helicopter cabability ADDED during the refit?  Or what chopper did the Durable use for its first 2 decades?

The answer seems to be "The SA366 G1 Dauphin version was selected by the United States Coast Guard in 1979 as its new short range recovery (SRR) air-sea rescue helicopter, replacing the Sikorsky HH-52A Sea Guard" (from the HH-65 article).

Talk:Secret Agent X-9

message: The pulp character has a similar premise to Secret Agent X-9 with someone without a name working for a shadowy organisation to fight criminals beyond the law. Who was first? The newspaper strip came out 22 Jan 1934 so could have been thought up just days before. The pulp was dated Feb 1934 but as with comics in later years, these were post dated 3-6 months so they were not on the newspaper stands one month and gone the next. I would think the pulp came first but that does not mean that the newspaper strip copied them as there has been a number of such cases of very similar things coming out, notably the TV series; The Munsters and The Addams Family, which hit the small screen just weeks apart.(178.236.117.122 (talk) 12:09, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

He's done illustrations for notable mainstream authors (i.e. Stephen King), and the niche horror authors he's done work for (like Ed Lee and Charlee Jacobs) are recognized as being tops in their field.  Also he's won an award.  Put it all together and he's at least as notable as lots of other people who have entries here. --Bookgrrl 02:51, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Norm Maracle

message: Hi, I am in a University class and part of my assignment is to review this article and provide an evaluation including three questions. Here is my evaluation:1.Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
Yes, this article proceeded in a very neutral position. No biased opinions were made towards any of the team mentioned in the article such as, the Detroit Red Wings, or the Atlanta Thrashers. The only claims that were made in this article were condensed information from reliable sources.
2.Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference?
No, every fact is no referenced with an appropriate reliable reference. As noted in the article there are multiple pieces of information that require a citation, as the information is closed by "citation needed" in brackets. Other than the information that is already noted, citations are needed for other pieces of information as well, such as some statistics. For example, the article states "Maracle finished the season with a 4–19–2 record and a save percentage under 90%," this information needs a citation so the readers can follow where the information is coming from and to determine if is it coming from an appropriate reliable source.
3.Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
Yes, everything in the article is relevant to the topic as it relates to Norm Maracle.The article consists of Maracle's hockey career, junior and professional, under 3 different headings; Detroit, Atlanta, Europe. The article includes a Table of Career Statistics which is a well done visual to increase the interest of the readers. The only thing about the article that distracted me was the Personal Life subheading, and that fact there there is so little information regarding Maracle's life before hockey. Including more information about Maracle's personal life would be a great improvement to the article.
This article is very well written, I enjoyed reading it!

replies: text: Good point. I removed the paragraph. -- Donald Albury 00:58, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

text: The opening sentence contains the passage, "...(also known as...split leather...) is a split leather...", which begs the question, "what is split leather?"  You can't define something as itself because that is meaningless.  Searching for "split leather" redirects to this article.  Many people use "split leather" as a synonym for suede, which it apparently is not.  The intro should have a better explanation, or perhaps a link to a new article describing "split leather". 12.233.146.130 (talk) 01:03, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Pennsylvania Route 290

message: I have two locally available Erie street maps, one published by UniversalMap, and the other published by MapWorks. Both maps were issued before completion of Route 290 and the Bayfront Connector, the latter of which is penciled in on both maps as the East Side Access Highway. This article seems to dodge the issue of whether the Bayfront Parkway and the Bayfront Connector are in fact PA Route 290. Note that there is even an internal link to the Bayfront Parkway in this article. I can testify that if you continue westbound long enough on the Bayfront Parkway, you simply end up on southbound I-79 without taking an exit. I recommend that the article make it clear that both the Bayfront Pkwy and Bayfront Connector are PA 290. I further suggest that Bayfront Parkway and Bayfront Connector redirect pages be created. --Pat 05:22, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: According to this map PA 290 follows the Bayfront Connector until its reaches 12th Street, after that it follows 12th to I-79. I don't think PA 290 is ever on the actual Bayfront Parkway. --​​​​Dtbohrer​​​​talk•contribs 16:38, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't grasp the definition of duplex. Now I understand the text and its discussion of the routing of 290 through town on 12th Street to the connector. Thanks for the assist. It would seem more logical for 290 to loop around the bayfront to the connector instead of joining the more local 12th Street.--Pat 16:26, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bayfront Parkway and Bayfront Connector 

message: Pennsylvania Route 290 and the Bayfront Connector are synonymous. Even though PA 430 also follows the Bayfront Connector PA 290 is a better merge choice since all of the connector is PA 290. Dough4872 01:30, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Name

message: In recent years NHRA has limited Top Fuel and Funny Car to running 1,000 feet, due in part to the death of Scott Kalitta and because they've been running so fast. The solution to slow down Funny Car is ludicrously simple. Go back to the body rules of 25+ years ago when the body had to be based on a real car's shape. Make it so the body must be *exactly* the shape of a production vehicle except for being stretched between the base of the windshield and front axle centerline, and allow alteration to accommodate the big rear tires. Underneath any chin spoiler, airdam and rear spoiler or wing the body shape should exactly match the production vehicle. Ban the narrow 'greenhouse' streamliner bodies that are all virtually identical and the "too fast" problem will go away. Bizzybody (talk) 06:45, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

message: The article suggests the Church of Zion is an "offshoot" of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I am interested in editing the term "offshoot" as it might allude that the group was sanctioned for a time or held affiliation with the Church which is not at all true. In fact the members (when known) were generally excommunicated from the larger Church. I propose adding the word 'dissident'.

Talk:Emirate of Bukhara

message: This article appears to contradict information elsewhere on Wikipedia:
An early colour photograph of the Emir of Bukhara, Mohammed Alim Khan, in 1911, taken by Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii as part of his work to document the Russian Empire from 1909 to 1915. Alim Khan, a direct descendant of Genghis Khan, was the last emir of the Manghit dynasty. He reigned from 1911 to 1920, fleeing to Afghanistan when the Bolsheviks annexed Bukhara and proclaimed the Bukharan People's Republic.

thread_title: "[[The]]"

message: While the discussion of Bukharian Jews is important, I have several problems with its prominence:
1) By having the 'culture' section detail only the oppression of the Jewish community doesn't give justice to the complex and beautiful culture, both Jewish and Islamic, that is indigenous to the area.
2) There is a distinct page for Bukharian Jews.
3) There are no citations.
4) By focusing upon solely the periods of oppression, we gain a distorted perspective on the centuries-long residence of the Bukharian Jewish community; to quote the Wikipedia page on Bukharan Jews: "this Central Asian community has experienced alternating periods of freedom and prosperity, as well as periods of oppression."
5) Is the discussion of Europeans giving names really important here?  Aren't we more interested in local perspectives in such a short piece?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aebrynis (talk • contribs) 05:04, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
