message: In Cynon Valley, around 160 Nonconformist Chapels were built according to Alan Vernon Jones in his book Chapels of the Cynon Valley.  Many of these Chapels remain in Aberdare.  Perhaps we could add a section on the local Chapel history including notes on the development of other Churches in the area.

message: "Aberdare () is an industrial town in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales, situated (as the name implies) at the confluence of the River Dar and Cynon."
This seems a somewhat odd assertion to make on the English language Wikipedia.  Is it seriously suggesting that an English-speaker would see the name Aberdare and think...yep, that definitely implies to me a place at the confluence of the River Dar and the River Cynon?  I know no Welsh, but I'd hazard a guess that even a native Welsh-speaker would struggle to find any suggestion of the River Cynon from the word Aberdare.  This statement needs explaining and clarifying. Draggleduck (talk) 00:24, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

message: I agree that the reference superscript looks better after the respelling than after the IPA.

thread_title: POV

message: The bulk of this article is heavy jargon simply listing various recordings. I'm not sure this should be included as it is rather long and needlesssly tedious. Even if it were to be considered starkly relevant info, the format in which it is laid-out is incredibly dense and reads like technical specs from a dvd manual. I suggest removing the lengthy list of recordings and replacing with a link so that someone could find this list elsewhere, but so that it doesn't take up the bulk of the space in the article.

thread_title:  People from Maesteg 

message: The article reports that Sidney Paget was commissioned to illustrate The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by accident, as the letter from The Strand Magazine was intended for his brother Walter Paget and was opened by Sidney in error. The article does not contain a citation for this claim, but it is widely reported and citations could certainly be added.  However, in an article in the Summer 2019 issue of the Baker Street Journal (unfortunately not available online), the author points out that this story was not told contemporaneously and, based on all the available evidence, seems (at least to him) to be unlikely to be true. I am not adding this assertion to our article because (1) as a new analysis it could be considered original research by our standards, and (2) I have a COI, as I wrote the BSJ article. However, I do think it would at least be worth adding some caveat to the assertion as it now appears. Thanks for your consideration. Newyorkbrad (talk) 09:20, 30 August 2019 (UTC)

Template talk:WWII history by nation

message: This template is in obvious conflict with the more relevant "History of XXX"-series. WW II is about more than just military history, and this should be reflected in the articles. We don't need separate articles just to cover the martial aspects of history, especially not considering how grossly overrepresented military history already is on Wikipedia (particularly when it comes to WW II). I've changed the template and I advise everyone to rename the relevant articles by removing the "military" out the title.

message: @Brigade 
Latin America should not be used as a section the way you are using it. All the other sections are geographical regions (continents, mostly), Latin America is a cultural region. I was just thinking, and I shouldnt have made that last edit, but all of the American countries should go back into one "Americas" section, like before. This template is for "nations and regions," so adding a link for the new "Latin America during WW2" article to the "Americas" section of the template is not inappropriate. Furthermore, British Guiana, modern Guyana, or any part of the British West Indies for that matter, is not part of Latin America, so you cannot put the link for it in a "Latin America" section.--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 20:14, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Need to clarify the differences between and separate functions of a D.A. and a U.S. Attorney

message: Surely the words 'District Attorney' constitute a legal title? In which case they are a compound proper noun, and both words should be written with capital letters. If 'attorney' is just a common  noun here, and 'district' is the adjective which qualifies it (ie an attorney of the 'district' type) then the current title is correct; however, I do not thik tht this is the case. This article is actually about people who bear the job title 'District Attorney', and therefore (as a compound proper noun) both words should be capitalised. --Timothy Titus Talk To TT 10:21, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Gravitoelectromagnetism

message: I very much like the actual values given in the comparison between the gravitomagnetic field on earth and that of the pulsar. A similar comparison could be made for the proton's gravitomagnetic field on an orbital electron in the hydrogen atom versus that field at its "surface". 
A similar provision for the approximation due to relativistic effects, as made for the pulsar, would be appropriate. Since it is unlikely that a reference could be found for any of the relativistic effects, calculation would have to be limited to results of the equation. Aqm2241 (talk) 19:35, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  extreme examples 

message: This article is confidently written and makes a very good impression.  A specific reference is badly needed for the formula for the gravitomagnetic field Bg near a rotating body as derived from the GEM equations (given as exactly half of the Lense-Thirring precession rate).  I am not even sure that it is true.
      I suspect that providing a specific reference is more easily asked for than provided – the original provision of this formula may be lost in the mists of time.  I have consulted References 11, 12 and 13 and they are either silent on the subject, very complicated (and expressed in raw GR form), or both.

:It would be OK to put another row in the template called "Related interests" or something, and then perhaps a reasonable case could be made for adding those subjects there.
