Talk:John Maddox

message: I'm sensing an WP:UNDUE problem with this. 1983 is very early on in the history of AIDS research, and it's entirely reasonable to suspect that Maddox changed his mind as time passed (I've seen suggestions that this is so, though no outright statement I can attribute to him). A quick search shows that this article is commonly cited by AIDS denialist authors. I don't know about deleting the passage but I would suggest that it doesn't tell the whole story. Mangoe (talk) 14:23, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. This is a cherry picked primary sources. Looking for secondary sources (which we should of course be basing our article on) they tell a different story. I have replaced the section and upgraded the sourcing accordingly. Alexbrn (talk) 10:25, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Talk:John Matheson

message: A large chunk of text at the end of the "Honours" section in the Wikipedia article on JOHN MATHESON has been copied from the following web site:  http://www.50yearsofourflag.ca/.  The "50 Years of Our Flag" website is the voice of a community lobby group working to have Brockville, Ontario, declared the "Official Birthplace of the Canadian Flag ".  This type of advertising/promotional information is inappropriate for posting on Wikipedia.  
The text also contains factual inaccuracy.  As two letters to the Brockville Recorder newspaper indicate (see http://www.recorder.ca/2013/05/15/letters-to-the-editor-may-15-2013 and http://www.recorder.ca/2013/05/17/letters-to-the-editor-may-17-2013), the original design (and rationale for that design) for the Canadian flag was created in Kingston, Ontario (not Brockville, Ontario) on 23 March 1964 in a formal memorandum written by Dr. George F.G. Stanley, then Dean of Arts at the Royal Military College of Canada.  John Matheson acknowledged Dr. Stanley's role in creating the flag design just after the design was approved by the House of Commons in Ottawa on 15 December 1964:  "Your proposed flag has just now been approved by the Commons 163 to 78. Congratulations. I believe it is an excellent flag that will serve Canada well."
John Matheson did play a significant role as the Liberal Government's political handler for the controversial flag initiative. He was the "salesman", not the "ideas person". However, the important events relating to the creation of the Canadian Flag took place in Kingston and Ottawa, not Brockville.  The fact that Matheson, as local Member of Parliament, happened to live in Brockville at the time does not make that community the "Official Birthplace of the Canadian Flag ".  To claim it as such is to deny the historical facts.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fitzdavid (talk • contribs) 13:27, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

message: The entire section devoted to Mayasich's supposed "invention" of the slapshot comes plagiarized from a 1998 article in the Minnesota Daily. It seems unlikely that he invented the slapshot, as he himself states in the article that he doesn't remember when he started using it, and in fact, the slapshot invention was already credited to Bernie Geoffrion in the "late 1940's", when Mayasich was still in high school.

thread_title:  Trade to KC 

message: Seems that for a few years in the early to mid 1970s, every time "big John" was at Yankee Stadium he tried to obliterate the back line of the batter's box so he could get more leverage. Recall the umpire allowing him to got through the motions but when John stepped into the now unclear box, the ump would make him move his foot back into the original dimensions, or even mark out the original line with his brush or something.  Big John would protest a bit, it was quite theatrical and he definitely had a fearsome bat in that era.  Not sure if this is worth adding but it was quite common for awhile, and it added a fun dimension to the game.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.255.84.122 (talk) 18:40, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Talk:John McCarthy (referee)

message: This article paints a picture of the the UFC / Referee relationship post UFC-31 that is misleading.  The article states that John McCarthy is retired from being a UFC referee when he is not in fact retired.  Additionally he is not employed by the UFC and has not been since the Nevada and New Jersey athletic commissions sanctioned MMA and implemented the Unified Rules of Combat.  John is no longer a licensed NSAC referee.  He is however licensed in California and referees events in that state.  Additionally this article has numerous 'time bombs' listing John's current activities which often may no longer be true.  I doubt anyone will read this but an experienced Wikipedia editor needs to look into cleaning up these inaccuracies. Whitoflaven (talk) 01:17, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

"In the late 1980s, McCrea moved to Los Angeles and began playing acoustically in local coffee shops.[3] His first solo release was a double-sided single on vinyl only called Rancho Seco. One side was electric and the other acoustic. The LP was a protest song against the now-decommissioned nuclear power plant Rancho Seco built southeast of Sacramento. "
A single ain't an LP (Longplayer). So I changed it accordingly, it was a single. He changed it back. That proves, A.I. is far away from taking over the world. But it leaves the mistake in the article. 95.90.115.121 (talk) 09:52, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Talk:John McDonnell (coach)

message: This article is making statements that really need further explanation. For example, it says that Coach McDonnell has won 42 NCAA national championships. However since he's only coached Arkansas for 29 years, the 42 is obviously not meaning the same thing as John Wooden's 10 national championships with UCLA basketball.
The difference is significant since it may mean that apples and oranges are being compared, but the article is making no effort to inform the reader of this. In fact, including the line "He has more national championships (42) than any coach in any sport in the history of college athletics." is going right after this comparison without citing references or even bothering to explain what is meant by a "national championship" or how Coach McDonnell can win more than one of them in a single year.
In short, this article reads like campaign rhetoric. It's full of technically true information, but no real context in which to judge that information. I hope that someone with close knowledge of Coach McDonnell's obviously impressive accomplishments can exand this article and fill in the contextual gaps. --Don Sowell 22:07, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Lxrun

message: Lxrun is a layer sitting on top of SCO's Unix that allows it to run Linux binaries natively. It's debated about because of the SCO-IBM litegation for various reasons. Mostly because:
* It was released by SCO and ported to other operating systems by non-SCO folk. Which means that contested methods and concepts like the ELF headers were released by SCO.
* It's not unthinkable that it contains GPL'ed Linux code, which means that SCO would be violating the GPL. AFAIK Lxrun is closed source software, though it's source was used outside SCO presumably under NDA.
This page is currently linked from Groklaw. I hope someone from there will improve this lxrun article significantly. I suggest to postpone the speedy deletion by a few days. If no-one had improved it by them, get rid of it. -- Sander Marechal
:It got speedied, but I recreated a new version that's written a bit more encyclopedically. And has the rather extensive Groklaw article as its reference. As far as I recall, it hasn't actually been mentioned in the SCO case, though there's been extensive conjecture and investigation on Groklaw - if I'm wrong, we need references.
