Talk:Individual events (speech)

message: I've flagged this article to be be merged with National Forensic League. I'd suggest that the info be split between that article and the individual event articles themselves. There is a lot of duplication and I'd be very surprised if a vistor searched under this title. --CTSWyneken 03:23, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

message: The follosing section was deleted from Forensics page as an act of disambiguation. Please incorporate it here, if there is anything new. I have a zero knowledge here to do it myself. `'mikkanarxi 02:02, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Removed from elsewhere

message: I'm on a competitive Speech team, and there are three events that I recognize that are not listed: Serious Interpretation, Storytelling, Extemporanous Programmed Reading. I'm going to add them with a description of the competition, which can be removed if anyone finds it necessary, but they exist and I've done all three before.
Also, I'm rewording the entry for Dramatic interpretation. It's worded to make people think of this definition of dramatic: any situation or series of events having vivid, emotional, conflicting, or striking interest or results: the drama of a murder trial. In actuality, it refers to theatrical drama, in that the piece performed must be a script for a play.
I also added a general explination of what limited preparation events are. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.196.77.164 (talk) 04:20, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing categories/rewording 

message: The Radio speaking article is a copy/paste from the section on radio speaking in Individual events (speech and debate), and adds nothing on its own. As it seems unlikely that Radio speaking will be able to add enough to merit its own non-stub article, I've proposed that it get merged into Individual events (speech and debate).

thread_title: Merge Radio speaking into Individual events (speech and debate)

message: While the article states that after dinner speaking and special occasion speaking differ in that ADS is only present in college, and SOS only in high school, both events are very similar, and I'd recommend merging them into an 'After Dinner Speaking/Special Occasion Speaking' section, including a line about the fact that one is a high school event, and one is a college event.  For a bit of background - in Illinois, ADS was an event until 1972, and SOS was run for the first time in 1973.  While I have no direct proof, given the similarity of the events, I assume that SOS replaced ADS (see IHSA individual champions).  I believe this example strengthens an already strong case for a merge. Stewunit 06:56, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge ADS and SOS

message: This article ought to be merged with the Debate page. This is for the sole reason that NFL tournaments host both Speech events and Debate events. When the pages are merged, speakers and debaters can get information without having to waste time. Borat55 04:59, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge Speech and Debate

message: Because the title of this page references both speech and debate, yet debate events like Lincoln-Douglas Debate, Public Forum Debate, and Policy Debate are not referenced (nor is congress for that matter), I propose that this page be moved to Individual events (speech). --YbborTalk 01:40, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed Move 

message: In Michigan, we have an event called Multiple Interpretation.  I'm not sure if that is in any other state because it isn't mentioned at all in this article.
If it does exist in other states, I would be willing to add it to the article but only if it isn't only in Michigan.Bovineboy2008 21:26, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Multiples?!?!?! 

message: They cover the same topic, and are both fairly short. No reason to have this topic in two places. Chris the speller (talk) 18:39, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Impromptu speaking has diverged from what it was a year ago, and it was expanded so much that a merge is pointless, now. Thus, I am going to remove the tag. --Omnipaedista (talk) 12:40, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge from Impromptu speaking 

message: A whole new section merely because something has a difference in material requirements is a bit extraneous. Furthermore, the National Forensic League most certainly does not demand DI material be from a theatrical script. I've no clue about the other leagues, but under those definitions, SI would be a NFL event. Dvnwlkr (talk) 03:25, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
