Talk:Pink granite

message: How would it be best to describe in detail the unique geological features of these type of granite ridges and flat areas in the Canadian Shield, especially in eastern Manitoba and north western Ontario?
A better idea is to nix this thing and make it a redirect to the main page on granite. Basically, "pink" granite is "granite" that just happens to be pink. And saying that it makes up a great deal of the Canadian Shield is irrelevant firstly to why it is pink, and secondly to why it is granite, or to anything pink or granite. What's next, we have articles on "grey granite" and "off-white to buff coloured speckled granite"? Seriously.
If you feel hard done by, dredge what was there out of the older versions and add it in to the main granite page, or the page on the canadian shield. Cheers, :Rolinator 14:17, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Redirected to granite. Nothing unique about the pink granites of Canada. Granitic rocks are commonly a shade of red or pink. Vsmith 20:18, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Talk:The Comet (British comics)

message: Having now seen the banner, and in terms of consistency with other articles on British comics, I suspect that the correct title for this article is just Comet (comic), currently a redir here (to prevent creation of duplicate articles). That move will await further research. IMO it shouldn't require listing on WP:RM unless there is some controversy. If for some technical reason it needs a sysop I might just do it speedily anyway, again assuming no disagreement. Andrewa 17:48, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I see this has been moved. Problem is this isn't a comic book it is a comic. I am not 100% sure how this would work with WP:NCC but "Comet (comic)" is not unreasonable name given that the type is a comic. It may be that "Comet (UK comic)" could be the right one but I think this is a tricky case (the only thing I know is this isn't the right one). Any ideas? (Emperor (talk) 19:23, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Silage

message: I'm not sure where to ask a question concerning silage, this is as close as I have where I can write a question.  Years ago I read that in early days that Sheep were put into silos to tramp and pack the foliage and lowered back out when the silo was full.  I told my grand children this story and they would not believe me.  Does any one have knowledge of this topic?

message: Where did the information on nitric acid in silage leachate come from? I think it is probably misleading.

message: "Many cattle have praised silage for its distinctive sour flavor, likening it to an "earthy sauerkraut"."

Talk:Knićanin

message: I removed two categories: since the article is not about concentration camp, but about village (which is not a concentration camp itself), it does not belong there. If somebody write separate article about concentration camp, then that article would belong there. I also removed the Danube Swabians category, because we do not have practice here to put the villages with Serb ethnic majority into category "Serbs", or the villages with Hungarian ethnic majority into category "Hungarians", etc. PANONIAN (talk) 18:28, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

message: On the picture caption is said that the church existed until 1948. It is said Here stood until 1948 the destroyed German church. This is somewhat ambigous, since it doesn not specify if the church was destroyed in 1948, or it might be destroyed earlier, and "removed" in 1948. I ask this question because I've found data on this site that says that the church was destroyed by Germans in 1944: The fall of the village is symbolized by the detonation of the church tower by German troops.  -- Obradović Goran  (talk 22:13, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Cavalry Corps (Union Army)

message: The only citation listed does not discuss Union Cavalry Corps at all. The external link: Cavalry Corps (Armies of the West) discusses some, but not all of the material written. I happened upon this article when I tried to search for Israel Garrard. The article mentioned this individual as a cavalry division commander in the Atlanta campaign. I changed it to the correct name Kenner Garrard (Israel's brother). The article also stated that the Armies of the Cumberland and Tennessee contributed the cavalry in the Atlanta campaign. I also corrected this (Cumberland and Ohio, not Tennessee). This article desperately needs some sources (and possibly more editing), but I don't have the time to fix this right now.

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Alice Schonfeld

message: In regards to the movement for deletion of article entitled 'Alice Schonfeld'
        I would like to throw in my two cents in this debate It is important that history tell stories like that of Alice Schonfeld because they remind us that we need not look at the world only through a narrow set of perspectives, or be blinded by normative modes of thinking; that is the assumption that someone who is blind cannot read, or someone who has no legs cannot play team sports. . I have had the privilege of seeing Alice schonfeld work in person four years ago at the show entitled “Art Ability” at the Lyceum Theater in San Diego.  In my opinion her work is both moving and inspirational, and I would argue she maintains a place of importance as a figure of inspiration for people like me that are affected by severe disability. Much like Alice, I was told by many doctors that I would never play the piano again; however I was able to find a way to adapt my technique to what remained of my ability. If those who write history believe they can forget all who do not conform, perhaps history is not worth writing after all. Just one man's opinion; take it for what it is worth.
