Talk:LP

message: What is this page about? It's a bit confusing!?
:It looks like it discusses LPs of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which links here. That material should probably get moved to the HHGG page. This could probably redirect to some other record page. -- Merphant
:I'm going to redirect this page to vinyl record and just delete the content, since it's pov and imo not very useful. -- Merphant 10:57 Dec 5, 2002 (UTC)

thread_title: Extra entry

message: Found my way here via WikiProject_Disambiguation.  It seems to me that the vast majority of links to this disabmig page mean to find studio album.  Does anyone else like the idea of making this page go automatially to Album with a "for other uses of LP see LP (Disambiguation)" line at the top? Theheadhunter 10:35, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I will agree that most links will go to Album, but I have also seen a significant number of links that rightfully belong to Gramophone record, like when the format is specifically mentioned.  It all depends on context.  For instance, in a single information box, LP as Format seems to indicate that the link should go to Gramophone record.  The same goes for when there is talk about CD, DVD and MC formats.  So, in short, I think it's best kept the way it is. --Pekaje 21:22, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Leopold Bloom

message: For one of the most significant characters in the history of literature, I feel like this article could use a bit of expansion. For God's sake, the page on Edward Cullen is longer. Here are a few possible themes or directions that we can take this page:
* Bloom as Odysseus (yes, this is mentioned, but in no way expounded upon).
* Bloom as "Leo" the lion of Christ, to be killed and resurrected.
* Bloom as the Jewish diaspora, in some ways alienated and far away from his place of origin (like Odysseus). 
* Bloom as a foil for Dedalus (e.g. concerned with earthly rather than cerebral matters).
The list goes on and on, but underscores one important point: this page contains almost no substantive information on the character or literary significance of Leopold Bloom.

thread_title:  Add the image of the character in the article accordingly please.... 

message: Early in the page, there is a claim that Bloom is not a Jew, but merely mistaken for one.  Although he has technically converted and been baptized in the Catholic church, he clearly still identifies as Jewish.  Near the end of the Cyclops chapter, he says "And the Savior was a jew and his father was a jew.  Your God."  Not "my God" but "your God."  A few lines later, he says "Your God was a jew.  Christ was a jew like me."  (my italics)
Admittedly, he's not much of a practicing Jew - he's a rather secular fellow, after all - but saying that he's "mistaken" for a jew seems a bit strong.

message: Local legend where I live states that the Ledger was first run in a round field near Firbeck, (near Maltby, Rotherham) (which is where a St Ledger or St Ledgers lived). Such a field exists. Not been able, as of yet, to back this up with any meaty evidence bar the field and word of mouth. Anyone know any real detail about the history of the race? -Nommo
: says it was founded by a Lieutenant Colonel Anthony St Leger (note: no D in the middle of the name) in 1776, and run for its first three years in Cantley (near Doncaster) before moving to Doncaster itself in 1779. This is the best I've come up with, but I'll try to track down something more definite in the library or something. --Camembert
::Best to ignore my spellings... An A.B. St Leger Esq. lived at Park Hill, Firbeck. I see also that the local CAMRA branch make passing reference to the story. But so far I can't find anything more substancial than gossip. -Nommo
Hello! I'm sorry, but not very well write in English. I love sports and the history of the sport, regardless of its type. I am fond of statistics and was searching for information about the early tournaments. At first I thought it was very wrong, but then found more errors. So, in the same page STAKES St Leger winner for 1784 appears jokkey John Kirton, but the source - Racing calendar 1784, page 111 - Set Mr. Coates and he did not owner. Assuming you're right, then why do you call jockeys from this source such as the Great Subscription Purses or Doncaster Cup? I in this case I do not understand anything. Or explain or have to redo a lot of information. Thank you.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by V.Shreiter71 (talk • contribs) 13:09, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

2005: 2000 Guineas - 116; 1000 Guineas - 113; Derby - 125; Oaks - 115; St Leger - 117
2004: 2000 Guineas - 122; 1000 Guineas - 115; Derby - 122; Oaks - 120; St Leger - 120

message: I, for one, have noticed a significant increase in the use of lower-case letters on TV and print adverts as well as labels on brand named products. For example: American Movie Classics or AMC changed their logo and advertising to all lower-case. If you walk through a supermarket you'll notice it, too. I'm not sure if there should be anything about this in the Lower-Case article, but I'll leave it to someone else (perhaps in the advertising industry who can explain the reason for it) to add it.

message: Currently, the article claims that "...the Disney character Winnie the Pooh is systematically removed on the Chinese Internet," and that "all films, TV series, or toys related to Winnie the Pooh have been banned in China." These are quite bold claims, but they seem poorly sourced. The latter claim is sourced with an article from the South China Morning Post, but the article itself makes no mention of Pooh media or toys being banned, only memes comparing the character to Xi Jinping. The only other source for the claim that everything Winnie the Pooh-related is banned in China is from Businesstoday.in; the article is quite vague, and the source itself seems somewhat tabloid-y. Are there other sources that corroborate these claims?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ithinkiplaygames (talk • contribs) 06:58, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

The language doesn't seem appropriate for a Wikipedia article, and is simply confusing in some places.

message: When a person is primarily known for one of their works, usually the redirect is towards that work. It's awkward that it's the other way around here. Almost the entirety of the article is about the book. As examples: The ==Jayne's Theory== section starts "In his book[...]", the beginning to ==Reception and influence== is "The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind, and the entirety of ==Controversy and criticism== is about the book. (Similarly, Bicameralism (psychology) could be merged in; it too is almost entirely about the book).

text: Yes, definitely. This person is not notable in any way beyond that single publication, so the bio material should be summarized and merged to the book article. The vast majority of this "bio" is actually about the book and its content and reactions to it, so it's a WP:CFORK. It actually leans strongly toward being an outright WP:POVFORK representing the viewpoint of his fan club, since it disguises almost all controversy (though our article on the book is hiding a lot of that, too, including the fact that modern cognitive science, evolutionary psychology, and related fields do not support Jaynes' claims at all).  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  13:36, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move to [[The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind]]? 

message: *Oppose merge. Jaynes is notable, the book is notable, and bicameral mind is notable. Merging is not the needed solution, rather removing material in excess of summary style would be the indicated course of action. As it is, there really is not a lot of duplication, most of the material in the biographical article is biographical. Most of the material in the article about the book is an overview of content and book reviews. Most of the details of the hypothesis are in the correct article. There isn't actually a problem here, and if you think there is, you should tag the parts of each article you believe are problematic. Keeping the articles separate is most compatible with how our category system is designed to work, with the person in people categories, the book in book categories, and the hypothesis article also with the appropriate categories for its content. Your proposal would have just the author's name showing up in non-people categories, or the book article showing up in people categories, which is ugly and confusing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If it can be fixed without merging, don't merge. Skyerise (talk) 18:05, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

message: There is a portion of the page that references the definition for the Sikh as defined by the SGPC.
At the time of writing, this is the definition:
The Definition of Sikh is any human being who faithfully believes in:
I. One Immortal Being,
II. Ten Gurus, from Guru Nanak Sahib to Guru Gobind Singh Sahib,
III. The Guru Granth Sahib,
IV. The utterances and teachings of the ten Gurus and,
V. The baptism bequeathed by the tenth Guru, and who does not owe allegiance to any other religion, is a Sikh.
However, this definition is restrictive because there are other Sikh sects who do not technically fit this definition, so I propose that this portion of the text be removed from the page because it's technically inaccurate.
This is not to comment on the SGPC in any way, rather to make sure that the Sikhism Wikipedia article is the most accurate when it comes to all Sikhs, not just the majority.
