Talk:Shield (Archie Comics)

message: How about adding something about The Legend of the Shield by DC under its !mpact logo?  (If that's listed elsewhere, someone needs to link to that article & correct the link in the Impact Comics article.) I would, but (a) I don't have the time right now, and (b) I've forgotten more about the 3 Impact Shield's than I remember. --Joe Sewell 18:28, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Possible refs 

message: Current article text reads:
"In 1999, Joe Simon and the Kirby estate regained ownership of the character by terminating their shares of the copyright. The character is currently available for licensing - something which no one took advantage of as of this writing."
What can this possibly mean? Do they own the character, or have they no share in its copyright? What?

message: In no way, shape or form should the minor, 2015 version of the character go in the infobox, the guidelines for which specify the most longstanding and usual version of the character.

Talk:Li'l Jinx

message: I removed this:
:In the first story, a father needs a little girl, and finds himself an artist to paint her one. With one spritz from a bottle of water of life, the painting springs to life with the words "Hi, I'm Li'l Jinx!".
because it said that that story appeared in Pep Comics #62. I just read the Li'l Jinx story in Pep #62, and nothing like this happens. There's also no indication in Pep #62 that this is her first appearance, so maybe this story (and her first appearance) was somewhere else? She's not in Pep #60 or #61, though.—Chowbok ☠ 13:09, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Red River War

message: This article has a good image, fair length, and some detail, but lacks an infobox. I also wonder if there isn't more to be said. It's just not that long of an article, and it would actually look even shorter if the image were removed. LordAmeth 11:28, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: WP:MilHist Assessment

message: The article contains little military information about the actual conduct of the war, just as it glosses over numerous transgressions on the Indian side. On the other hand it is positively briming with mercilessly repetituos, demagogically ahistorical and stylistically inane propaganda against the settlers and the army. No doubt some American Indian editors of the `Eternal feud` school of `thought` - perhaps along with some non-Indian sympathisers - see it as an opportunity to vent. While some of their grievences may have historical foundation, as others surely do not, the affect of their propagandistic zeal on the article is rgrettable and destructive. As my knowledge on the period is limited to information gleaned from other internet sites I do not at this point feel able to rewrite it myself. However I urge those better versed to execute a rescue Soz101 (talk) 21:44, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Obgectivity and information sorely needed

message: This article is not only totally uncited, it is also biased and rather unencyclopedic.  Examples:
*"Euro-Americans homesteaders, hungry for land, began to pressure the Federal Government to take military action against the Indians." As though "Euro-Americans" were a monolithic block; this is also not a common term.  "Hungry for land" is inflammatory language, and the claim about pressuring the government is totally unsourced.
*"But the treaty was a failure."  It's one thing to say that certain groups ignored the treaty (which is true, but needs citation), but it is original research to deem the treaty a failure.  At most, you can say "So-and-so historians have called the treaty a failure" if you provide sources.
*"The hunters killed the animals by the thousands [...] and the U.S. government did nothing to stop them."  Unsourced, and "did nothing to stop them" is condemning, POV language.
*"Cattlemen [...] caused enormous environmental disruption."  POV and unsourced.
*"A good number of the cowboys treated all Indians as 'hostile.'"  Unsourced.
*"The Native Americans, with a hunting tradition that stretched back to time beyond memory..."  Romantic, unencyclopedic language.
*"The promises made by the U.S. government [...] proved largely empty. Food was inadequate and of poor quality."  Unsourced.
*"The restrictions on personal movement, trade, and worship were all but impossible for the Indians, who were used to roaming over the plains at will, to tolerate."  Complete original research, totally POV, and over-romantic.

Talk:Provirus

message: thumb|300px|Another, in most of the country (IMO) more representable MAV-START trainWhen I look at the pictures of the trains in this article, I get the impression that MAV mostly has modern and comfortable trains, while my experience is that these trains can mainly be found between Austria and Budapest and around the big lake where most of the tourists go. When I was in Hungry this summer I went to the east and the southwest of the country and traveled mostly by train. The train that took me from Kecskemet to Nagykanitza was one as shown on this picture here, with "modern" facilities like electrical light on dynamo and windows that could be opened and closed by the passengers. The outside doors don't close when the train took off unless you close them yourself. Trains like these drive all over the country, they have some fancy new modern trains but most of the trains in Hungry would actually not even be allowed anymore in Western Europe since they do not meet the security regulations.

message: The term "riad" is associated with Morocco but isn't unique to Morocco, and most books just use the word "riad" without having to specify "Moroccan".

replies: text: Addendum: I take that back, partly. I was certain that I had tried searching for "riad" and that it redirected me here, but I now see that "riad" is in fact a disambiguation page. Not sure why I missed that. So maybe instead the question should be whether to change the title of the page to something like "riad (garden)" or similar to that... if it's worth it.
