Talk:Teufel Nursery

message: Reasons for my cuts:
* The "controversy tag" is only for controversies, and states that it is only to be used in talk pages.
* Teufel Nursery is not a kingdom - therefore the owner's son is not the "Heir to the throne"
* The statement about abandoned buildings needs context, and may not be notable anyway.
Things that could be done to improve this article:
* Founded in 1890? - that's an old company for Oregon.  Tell more about it's founding and history.
* Scan the old logo and ask the company owner to allow use for this article.  I don't know the procedure, but there is one.
* "Provided the landscaping" Did the work, or provided the plants?
* How about a photo of the microsoft campus?
* Others?

Talk:Robert Seeley

message: This article mentions that Wethersfield was the first settlement in Connecticut.
Wasn't  Windsor founded first?
Additions made recently by user Polly Cumbo have changed the article from an article about Seeley to an article about the Pequot War and New Haven Colony.  Users who want more information on those events should click on the links.  The extra information, while valuable, clutters the article and alters it from its pupose:  a brief biography on Robert Seeley.
**I'm brand new to wikipedia. Having roamed around for a few hours now, I've learned some valuable things. This edit history of this brief biography is a good case in point. It seems to have started out as something akin to jello-- bland and substanceless. Then it was built up and contextualized with footnotes to boot-- something rare in the majority of wikipedia articles I read. Then, ostensibly in the interests of removing clutter, the original contributor erased all of the significant history that contextualized the life of someone like Robert Seely. To what purpose? Does it have something to do with having an a genocidal nonentity like Seely as an ancestor? Look dude, while we can't pick our ancestors, we can be honest about them. Unfortunately, as the article now stands, there's no telling fact from sentiment about Robert Seely, given the most recent changes to his bio. Instead of contextualizing Seeley as a colonist with a vested interest in the outcome of the Pequot War, L'Ascolano gives us, "[Seely] carried a permanent scar from the wound." Wow! I've learned a lot. L'Ascolano's erasures result in a decontextualized biography that lacks history but is lamely peppered with sentimental drivle culled from a vanity press publication! Are we really supposed to buy that Montell Seely and Kathryn Seely's so called "history" is legitimate? Now I know why I have to work so hard teaching incoming first year undergrads proper research methods since they're being taught by secondary school teachers like L'Ascolano. Now I know why universities do not allow students to cite wikipedia articles. Increase Mather 00:27, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I've added the claimed performance (408ms / 450m+ range) from an episode of Battlefield Detectives titled "What Sunk the Armada", which tested a replicate culverin.  It appears to be the weapon shown on the camera left of the current article image, and was fired by a representative of the Royal Armouries.

thread_title: Off target?

message: Does the term "culverin" apply to non-land use? For instance on Navy ships? If not, perhaps the article should mention that the term is exclusively an army term. Student7 (talk) 02:21, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

message: Deleted May 25th..
"I have recently learned somewhere that the reason that the manteca waterslides closed was because of a new regulation at the time which said they had to install a water pump house to clean the water which had never had a contamination problem since the park first opened."

thread_title:  Removed May 25th - Speculation 

message: I removed a link that said it was a reference and lead to search called "search" which is a malware that has in the past infected my windows computer, and changed my search engine and is very difficult to remove. Although clicking on the link does not seem to infect the computer, the link marked number 1, did not have any information about the water park. I looked for an article to add and I found one, but it does not have give any reason as to why the park closed, and it did not show up correctly as a reference. The reference template need to be redone. I am trying to talk to someone about that on the chat. So I am posting the link here in case anyone wants to see it.

Talk:Roman Catholic Diocese of Ourense

message: Hi :) In the English wikipedia, both the city and the province of Ourense/Orense are called "Ourense", reflecting the Galician and Portuguese name, instead of using the Spanish name of "Orense". Shouldn't this apply to the name of the diocese too ?
On the other hand, the article on the Catholic Encyclopedia is called Diocese of Orense. 
On National Geographic Society maps, it appears as Ourense in the "Spain and Portugal" map of December 1998 and "Europe" map of June 2005, but as Orense in the "Europe" map of December 1992. Evv 03:29, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
