Talk:Joe Seliga

message: Jeff dean,
the article you created on Joe Seliga is not in the appropriate format for wikipedia, and it does not assert the importance of the subject.  I reformatted the article appropriately, which you have reverted.  Might I refer you to the article Wikipedia:What wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, which states that wikipedia is not the appropriate place for personal memorials.  Not being a canoeing person, I can't say with authority that Joe Seliga is not noteworthy, but I can assure you that in its current form, the article is not appropriate for wikipedia.  I am returning the article to its wikified state, including a stub request for other users to expand the article and assert the noteworthiness of the subject. If you revert it again, I will nominate the article for the formal deletion process.
I appreciate that you wish to remember Joe Seliga, but Wikipedia is not the appropriate place to do that. --Swpb 17:27, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Winchester Public Schools (Virginia)

message: I propose that this page be moved to something like Winchester Public Schools, since that is the name used on the school system's own Web site.  I don't see the point in not calling the school system what it calls itself, especially in the absence of a citation to an official source for the name "Winchester City School District."  Moreover, the term in Virginia statute is "school division," not "school district."  Doctor Whom 17:27, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Quantum dot laser

message: This article does not say anything about quantum dot lasers in general.  It talks about a specific laser, and reads like a corporate press release, likely because of its suspicious similarity to the press release cited as the only source for the article.  Quantum dot lasers are a relatively new technology, but Fujitsu/University of Tokyo is not the only developer.  Right now, the article is basically spam. Jermor 04:29, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Differences from Real Life

message: As there is a specific intent by the members of the ANC (including the main protagonist) to commit acts of sabotage that take measures in order not to harm innocents: the term saboteur seems more appropriate.
Most definitions of Terrorism refer specifically to violence against individuals and innocents. In the film, the leadership at the ANC camp specifically instructs the protagonist not to harm innocents in the course of committing the intended act of sabotage.
The word terrorist was used by the Apartheid government to alienate the ANC and is politically loaded. 
In the context of the film description the word terrorist should be replaced by another term that is more accurate and politically neutral.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.138.165.236 (talk) 08:26, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Hello all,
I think a huge help to keeping this article to a neutral point of view would be to only include information that you've found in a reliable source (Wikipedia:Reliable sources), present only what is found in those sources without additional interpretation etc, and then to cite the sources. Hope this idea helps. Sancho McCann 06:44, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Why the name?

message: "It is one of Miami's only Art Deco buildings that is over 20 floors." is hardly meaningful.
"only" might be replaced by "few" or by a positive integer (e.g. 5) or a numerical place holder (e.g.
handful of). In those cases and even as it stands the second "is" should be "are". Or should "one of" and the "s" of "buildings" be deleted? 
The website www.alfredidupontbuilding.com describes it as Miaimi's only Art Noveau skyscaper (but can a site consistently using " its' " be trusted?).
That site always writes the building's name in upper case with "DU" in a smaller font than the following P, some places all other letters match that P, other places only four (A, I (his middle initial), P, and B) are larger and the rest match the DU.   Further www chaos comes from having, or not, a period after the I and a general liberality with capitals (e.g. du v DU)) and interword spaces.
This should be sorted out before multiple lawsuits ensue.SilasW 19:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

File talk:Fireball comparison pic.jpg

message: Nice image Fastfission, but about the diameter calculations of the Nuclear Fireballs, this Website  has a "Nuclear Weapon Effects Calculator" which maybe can be used to confirm the sizes.
This calculator give 3 different categories of Fireball size, but if we put in 1 Megaton we get...
* Fireball diameter (minimum): 860 metres (or 2,822 feet).
* Fireball diameter (airburst): 1,060 metres (or 3,478 feet).
* Fireball diameter (ground-contact airburst): 1,400 metres (or 4,593 feet).
For the 20 Kiloton we get...
* Fireball diameter (minimum): 180 metres (or 591 feet).
* Fireball diameter (airburst): 220 metres (or 722 feet).
* Fireball diameter (ground-contact airburst): 300 metres (or 984 feet).
This is quite a bit different than the values of 7,200 ft (2,195 m) and 1,550 ft (472 m), that you were using. Now I don't know whether that site is accurate or if your calculations are accurate, but maybe you should look into it. --Hibernian 18:16, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:9×39mm

message: Reference to the 9×39mm Vladikavkaz Subsonic Round Restriction had already been removed from this article once for lacking citations. Why was it re-added? I've tried searching for it on search engines like Google, and in the Internet Archives. I've tried searching using every variation of including or excluding spaces, using x,*,x, or х, using Latin or Cyrillic alphabet and dropping every word that might not have been translated well from Russian. I cannot find any relevant results that predate it's mentioning on Wikipedia, and the Russian Wikipedia page doesn't even mention such a restriction, despite it being named after a city in Russia and supposedly being a restriction on a Russian cartridge. The earliest mention I could find of it outside Wikipedia was mid-2018 on a site called Ammo One. I contacted someone from that business who didn't know any more about it. As far as I can tell, no information that predates or expands upon the original Wikipedia edit exists in any language.

thread_title:  So called "9×39mm Vladikavkaz Subsonic Round Restriction" 

message: Article currently says the following:
"Commercial Wolf and Tula brand Ammunition that was being imported into the United States was subsequently banned on September 7, 2021 by President Biden as part of sanctions against Russia for invading Ukraine."
The ban took effect on September 7th, over half a year before the invasion started on February 24th, 2022.
To the best of my knowledge, the government's official stance on the reason for the ban is given on this website:
https://www.state.gov/fact-sheet-united-states-imposes-additional-costs-on-russia-for-the-poisoning-of-aleksey-navalny/
Reason given being the poisoning of Aleksey Navalny, rather than the invasion that was yet to occur, or even the amassing of troops near the Ukrainian border. Jubuttib (talk) 21:42, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
