Talk:Carlos Gamarra

message: To suggest that there is a connection to the unfortunate Andrés Escobar is a slander on the rule of law in Paraguay.
:regardless, there is the strong connection between the two incidents. real conversation on what the state of futbol is in Paraguay is fair.
::Strong connection? A ton of own goals have been scored in WC history I'm sure, and only one of them led to a tragic event. Gamarra is already a legend and one of the most loved players in Paraguayan football history, and to think that an own goal will lead to a tragedy such as Escobar's death is absurd. Please think before you add information to an article. Bruno18 01:36, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: When Escobars goal put columbia out, the columbians were highly expecting to win the tournament. The same cannot be said for paraguay. Also Escobar had strong gang connections, and this has also been attributed to his asassintion. Philc TECI 17:34, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

text: + in all other games it's called a goal, and not a point. The intro even mentions the metaphorical use of "own goal", which would make little sense in an "own point" article.

Talk:Live at the Apollo (TV series)

message: Now that this is called Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow (starting tonight) do we move this article to that, seperate them or continue as I have with MMCR as Series 5 > onwards?
I was never aware that the above was a continuation of Live at the Apollo, for a few reasons - Firstly, it's not at the Apollo, secondly, it's not live, and thirdly, it has a different format, with 3 relatively unknown people performing instead of just 1 or occasionaly two.
I'm sure it shares links with Live at the Apollo, yet these links are so thin that surely the Roadshow desrves it's own article, therefore changing some of the formatting on this article too.
Of course, there could just be a small 'Main Article' section at the bottom page, for a main Roadshow article.

Talk:Bell's spaceship paradox/Archive 2

message: I have now written an (almost completely new) version of Bell's spaceship paradox offering a simpler explanation of the mainstream viewpoint and a brief discussion of dissident viewpoints.  Since the kinematic decomposition is a standard method in the differential geometry of curves in Lorentzian manifolds, the simple computation offered in the new version should clear up Rod's confusion, provided he is willing to learn to compute with frames.  I plan to add some figures to the new version when I get a chance which should make the discussion more geometrically vivid.  Time permitting, rewrite of Ehrenfest paradox and new Born coordinates articles will be forthcoming as well.---CH 02:40, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Transcona's a mix of people from all over Winnipeg, so there's not much chance of a "Transcona accent."  (And, before you ask I"m not contributing my voice for a few reasons:  1) I'm not originally from Transcona, 2) I've only lived in Transcona for two and a half years, and 3) I have a speech impediment (completely unrelated to living in Transcona!) which would not be a good example of any kind of accent.)  --Canuckguy 04:23, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

material to add:
::In early 2020, the general election was an unprecedented three-way race, with the three largest parties each winning a share of the vote between 20% and 25%. Fianna Fáil finished with 38 seats (including the Ceann Comhairle). Sinn Féin made significant gains; it received the most first-preference votes, and won 37 seats, the party's best result since its modern iteration in 1970. Fine Gael, the governing party led by Taoiseach Leo Varadkar, finished third both in seats (35) and in first-preference votes. 
::International news outlets described the result as a historic break from the two-party system, as it was the first time in almost a century that neither Fianna Fáil nor Fine Gael won the most votes. Furthermore, the combined vote share of the two traditional main parties fell to a historic low."‘Seismic break for two-party system’: UK and US media react to Election 2020". The Irish Times. 10 February 2020."Ireland’s two-party system shaken by Sinn Fein surge". Associated Press. 7 February 2020.
