Talk:The Power of Darkness

message: I cut the following: "An adaptation by John James Justice will be produced by the Cripple Creek Theatre Company in New Orleans, LA." Maybe I'm missing something, but I see no reason that is important enough to mention in an encyclopedia. There have been many productions of the play. What makes this one important enough to single out? - Jmabel | Talk 06:42, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Cut: notability?

message: After reading the copious Russian wikipedia article devoted to this play, I think that it was not, technically speaking, "banned" in the sense that its circulation or possession were proscribed. It was even openly performed unofficially, including in court circles. Rather, it was forbidden for production in an official theater. So I'll amend the article accordingly.

Talk:Incendiary

message: *Definition
Isn't an incendiary a device meant to SET such a fire, rather than the fire itself?
Incendiary is an adjective that describes the type of fire or that decribes the purpose of the device, in the case of things like Thermite.--catseyes 02:50, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No, Raz is right.  According to the dictionary, incendiary means "designed to cause fires". —Michael Z. 2007-09-16 15:42 Z

I tidied it up a bit, but was confused as to what year it should be labelled as. Perhaps someone could just check if it should be classified as a 2008 or 2007 film? Raz.you.up 23:27, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This article is just a dictionary definition, and an incorrect one at that.  See wikt:incendiary for that.
My dictionary has the primary definition "(of a substance or device, esp. a bomb) designed to cause fires", plus two metaphorical uses.  As a noun it is a bomb, an arsonist, or a person who stirs up strife.  These are each already covered by other articles, so I'll convert this into a disambiguation page. —Michael Z. 2007-09-16 15:46 Z
:I think this page should redirect to Incendiary device and have a separate disambuiguation page. "Incendiary" is a very common contraction of "incendiary bomb" (or bullet, or shell), which is far more notable than the other uses listed. Cyclopaedic (talk) 09:57, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Sōjutsu

message: Nothing could be more wrong.

replies: text: I have to agree, the spear was incredibly popular amongst the Samurai and the Ashigaru soldiers, who themselves used it to great effect before and during the Sengoku Jidai. Oda Nobunaga for instance used them /widely/.

thread_title:  "never particularly popular with Japanese warriors?" 

message: Can someone get confirmation that it was the yari that was used to form the Japanese islands? I've seen several depictions showing a naginata, and a couple of translations with "halberd", which is typically an (inaccurate) translation of naginata.
Also, in the "Use and Popularity" section, the article focuses on use by ashigaru, in conjunction with firearms. The yari was a popular weapon even before firearms were common. I'm not sure why "requiring less training" would be cited in an article about what is essentially yari training. It also ignores the popularity of yari with samurai, who often used it mounted. Sources can be produced for this; the best would be the book that was used in the article on the yari itself.  --Longpatrol42 (talk) 17:26, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Laudir de Oliveira

message: For once and for all, folks, "camel case" names do not exist in Portuguese - take the word of an educated Brazilian, hence a native speaker of Portuguese, but if you can understand the language you can also check the official documents on-line at the Brazilian Academy of Letters or the Lisbon Academy of Sciences, the officially responsible institutions that regulate Portuguese spelling and grammar, respectively in Brazil and in Portugal. I assure you that there is no such thing as "DeOliveira" or "DaSilva."
"De" is the preposition "of" in Portuguese; the variations "do" and "da" are combinations with the definite article (respectively before masculine- and feminine-gendered nouns), so they both mean "of the" in English. Therefore, DeOliveira is as grotesque as writing Port OfSpain or Lake OfTheWoods in English, Simone DeBeauvoir in French, María DeLosAngeles in Spanish, Johannes VanDerWaals in Dutch, or Claus VonBülow in German.
De is also never capitalized, except when starting a sentence or in an all-caps phrase (as in a warning sign), so "Laudir Soares De Oliveira" is also incorrect, just as "Rio De Janeiro" also is. "Laudir de Oliveira," "Laudir Soares de Oliveira" and "Rio de Janeiro," all with lowercase "de," are correct.
I am going to correct the article and move it to the right name.

message: I just reverted an attempt to add Canada to the list of combatants.  Canada is not discussed in the article at all.  So first of all a citation is needed for that.  The citation needs to not only verify that Canada was in conflict with the Sioux, but that that conflict formed part of the same conflict in the United States.  Secondly, there needs to be some addition to the body of the article before it can legitimately be mentioned in the lead or infobox. SpinningSpark 16:35, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

message: The lead describes a bardiche as a "glaive polearm". A glaive consisted of a sword-like blade socketed to the end of a pole, whereas the bardiche is an axe-like blade socketed alongside a pole, like a voulge or Lochaber axe.

Talk:Reuleaux tetrahedron

message: Would I be correct in surmising that there woukd be an equivalent Reuleaux and Meissner shape for each the other four platonic solids?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.121.1.13 (talk) 01:10, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Uh, no? There is also no Reuleaux square in the plane. You can make constant-width curves in the plane, using the same idea as the Reuleaux triangle, for polygons with an odd number of sides, and some of these are used as coins. But this works because the odd polygons always have a vertex opposite each side that can be used as the center of each circular arc. In 3d, the tetrahedron has a vertex opposite each face, and the Reuleaux tetrahedron uses a sphere centered at that vertex. But none of the other regular polyhedra have vertices opposite their faces; instead they have a face opposite each face. You can still make shapes that look like cubes (say) with spherical patches as its faces instead of flat faces, but there's no particular reason to call them "Reuleaux", just like rounded triangles whose edges are arcs centered at other places than the opposite vertex are rounded triangles but are not Reuleaux traingles. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:49, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

message: I am very impressed with the terrific idea that has been founded in Wikipedia.  I have read a great deal already over many topics and nowhere have I been IMMEDIATELY STRUCK by the qualifictaions and judgements made about the subject matter (Lee Michaels).  It is glib, which is a passive aggressive tactic in most cases.  Of course I disagee with this person's drift:  he/she is probably a music critic; professional (those people should stay out of here) and full of trite and horrible jargon.  That's my view.

message: As far as I know the only drummer of the Jefferson Airplane was Spencer Dryden. As I'm not a total expert on the Airplane, I can't say that Johny Barbata (who apparently worked with Lee Michaels and who this article currently mentions as the Airplane's  drummer)  never was their drummer at any point, he might have filled in for Dryden or something. But then shouldn't it say he filled in for him or replaced him or something like that? It makes it sound like Barbata was the Airplane's only drummer!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.206.183.152 (talk) 03:49, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Since the mention is in relation to the bands Barbata had been a part of there is no easy way to notate what you're asking. Barbata was the Airplane's final drummer playing on the Long John Silver and 30 Seconds Over Winterland albums - the band's last 2 before morphing into Starship. Dryden was not the group's only drummer. Jerry Peloquin and Skip Spence both played drums for the group. Dryden was Spence's replacement in 1966 when Skip left the group after their first album was released.THX1136 (talk) 23:51, 3 August 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Lemuel Smith

message: Hello,
I was trying to find sources to add references to this article, and came across the book "The World Encyclopedia of Serial Killers", which Google Books offers a preview of. It is evident from this preview that a significant part of this article was copied verbatim from the book, see this link for example: https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_World_Encyclopedia_of_Serial_Killers/JnQyEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&pg=PT413&printsec=frontcover.
Most of the "Freedom and serial murders" section can be found in this book, with sentences copied without any changes. As explained in WP:COPYPASTE: "In most cases, you may not copy text from other sources into Wikipedia. Doing so is a copyright violation. Always write the articles in your own words and cite the sources of the article." and "Wikipedia articles must be written in the author's own words" (in bold on that page).
It seems to me that this section and maybe more of the article needs to be rewritten to remove the copyrighted material. Nffwp (talk) 15:28, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
