:That's because the rationale there is for Order of the Arrow honors and awards. Per WP:NFCC#10c each use has to be enumerated in the file page. Incidentally, I don't think it meets WP:NFCC#8 and WP:NFCC#3 on the recipient page - why does a photo of an award significantly enhance the understanding of the list of its recipients and why can't the use on Order of the Arrow honors and awards suffice?

thread_title: Untitled

message: The current version describes the cover as featuring a man reading a book with his own face on it. I've noticed (in fact more than 20 years ago when I listened to my dad's CD) that the face does not at all match the reading person. You can see it when looking at the hair, it might be the same person but it's definitely not a the cut out face from the same picture as the description suggests. If there aren't any sources available that would specify how the cover is actually composed I would suggest a more general phrasing:
:The cover art shows a suit-wearing, faceless man seated in a train carriage reading a book with a matching cut out face on its cover.

message: In this article, it states that the subject "was a direct ancestor to Mulay ʻLi Shrif, founder of the Alaouite Dynasty, which is the current Moroccan royal family."  However, in the article for Moulay Ali Cherif it explicitly states that the founder of said dynasty "was allegedly a descendant of l-Hesn d-Dakhl," implying that there is some debate as to whether the ancestral relationship is genuine.  If this is the case, this article should be changed from "was a direct ancestor" to "is alleged to have been a direct ancenstor" reflect that, while if there is no debate the article on Moulay Ali Cherif should be changed to remove the "alleged".ChristopherGregory (talk) 23:13, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:HMS Corunna (D97)

message: This section was removed on the basis that it is Trivia, and references a Deprecated Source. The Deprecated Source in question is 'The Scottish Sun', which is a major national newspaper in The UK. From a personal point of view I have a low opinion of this publication, and if I was looking for sources for a serious political peice I would hesitate to reference it. However this is not such a piece and there is no reason why the article in question should be attached as being unreliable. Furthermore, regardless of my, or anyone else's, opinion of the publication, it is not justifiable to dismiss all that it references as false. Doubtless it contains more truths than untruths. If that were not the case then the UK regulators would have shut it down.
The episode in question is also available to view on BBC iPlayer, Netflix, and Youtube, so the accuracy of the reference can be easily verified from multiple sources.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulmichael1084 (talk • contribs) 08:20, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

"The role of vitamins as prosthetic groups is a main reason for their importance in the human diet."
This was reversed, apparently because vitamins also have a function as coenzymes. However, both sentences give the role as prosthetic groups as a main reason for their importance.
