Talk:The Inspector Lynley Mysteries

message: I contacted the BBC and asked whether it was true that the BBC was planning to stop producing "The Inspector Lynley Mysteries" or not. According to BBC information,  no official decision has been made regarding the future of "The Inspector Lynley Mysteries". In this Wikipedia article it is stated that the BBC in August 2007 "announced its intention to no longer make episodes of "The Inspector Lynley Mysteries." How can this be if the BBC's press office in an e-mail dated 24.10.2007 states that "no official decision has been made regarding the future of the series"? Can someone please back up the original statement in this article with a source or a quote? ~ Anne  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.235.192 (talk) 15:11, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The PBS webpage, when discussing the seventh season, intimates this is the end of the series by stating "An old, unsolved and very personal case, and a new one involving the possibility of a serial killer in suburban London draw Lynley and Havers into action one last time." The Wall Street Journal also noted in a recent article the series was ending; however, that article is not available in their free section online. 71.175.28.241 (talk) 11:22, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Samuel Sprigg

message: Did Samuel Sprigg attend Princeton University (then the College of New Jersey)? He appears on Wikipedia's list of Princeton University people, but most biographies I've found of him mention no college at all. This article (warning: large PDF) in the Princeton University Library Chronicle about someone else says in a footnote (pp. 2-3) that he went there, as does this encyclopedia article. Neither cites a source. It's plausible that the Chronicle author is mistaken and the encyclopedia editor got it from her. Lagrange613 (talk) 05:21, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Sandra Bussin

message: I came to her page hoping to learn which way she tends to lean on issues; to the right, the left, or more central.
Is she a supporter of the Mayor?
When she worked at Queen's Park, which party did she work for?
These are all things I would have wanted to know coming to her page on Wikipedia.
Can someone in the know please fill in the blanks?
Thanks  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.103.221.52 (talk) 14:06, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Which way does she lean? 

message: The original text for this section suffered from badly skewed POV language. However, the tersely summarized single sentence goes too far in removing the substance of the issues. I propose that the section begin with something like "In 2009-2010 three zoning disputes were highlighted in the local media..." followed by three short summaries. The one that I already reworded is perhaps still too long so I am open to suggestions. EncyclopediaUpdaticus (talk) 15:09, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Zoning controversies 

message: While I can sympathize with the above poster who would like to see the sordid details of at least one of the controversies dragged out in an encyclopedia article, the length of this article will simply not bear the detail: When describing living people, we do not host attack pages, even if the substance of the criticisms is true.  We do not place WP:UNDUE weight on minor controversies.
If someone has a burning desire to expand the criticism section again, the proper way to do so is in detailing additional positive aspects of Ms. Bussin's career.  This article is about the political career of a particular Toronto politician--it is neither to be a puff-piece written by supporters, nor a collection of every controversy assembled by her detractors. Right now, it has become a little less unbalanced.  Efforts to move it back towards an attack page on Ms. Bussin are not appropriate. Jclemens (talk) 08:19, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Posting only 'positive' aspects is in itself a type of POV. When I add text I strive to report the facts of the matter which also involves reporting both sides of an issue in a neutral manner. Reporting only the 'positive' side creates an imbalance. I think you have gone too far in this case. EncyclopediaUpdaticus (talk) 15:13, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You are allowed your opinion, and if you want to seek broader consensus to restore this article to a hatchet-job on Ms. Bussin, WP:BLP/N would be the appropriate place to do so.  Again, if you would like to include the details which I find trivial that you believe to be meaningful and worthy of inclusion, feel free to increase the positive coverage of Ms. Bussin throughout the article such that the net result is an article where the criticisms do not outweigh the rest of the article's contents.

replies: text: It doesn't discuss it in the article, but the infobox on the right states that Nosaka was born in Hagi, Yamaguchi. He had a wife name "Ryu". Because the rest of his family is never mentioned in any articles about him that I have found, I believe that the couple was childless.Ferox Seneca (talk) 03:21, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Saul Anuzis

message: Why would a chairperson of a state's party have a Wiki entry if they've done nothing of note-- besides the Ron Paul incident, that is....?   A quick look around finds that other non-notable state chairpersons do not have Wikipedia articles.  This article is filled with personal information rather than professional achievements that would merit a Wikipedia entry.--Gloriamarie 15:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Please do not imply that I have "something personal against the article."  The article is unsourced, is not written in an encyclopedic tone and contains nothing that as of now would make this person notable for a Wikipedia entry.  I simply made a request on the talk page so that someone could come along and establish notability.  Feel free to do so if you can-- that is why the notability tag is inserted.  I do not think simply being the chair of a party in a state makes you inherently notable under Wikipedia guidelines.  Looking at most of the articles above, some are only a few sentences long, some are actually only one sentence long, containing nothing beyond the person's name and their position as chairman/chairwoman.  Some are longer but contain nothing establishing notability.  All are almost completely unsourced and not written in an encyclopedic tone.  They are not good articles.  I'm inclined to say they should all go with the exception of Michael Madigan, who is a well-known politician in Illinois, and Joseph Cryan and Chris Redfern, who are elected general assembly members.  Many of the articles appear to be perhaps be written by the members themselves.  Robert T. Bennett seems to have had many accomplishments as party chairman, accomplishments which these other articles do not include if their subjects have had similar accomplishments. Arthur Torres' article even goes to the level of detail that he attended a rally in October 2006 on a college campus.  Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a biography site-- see WP:NOT.  I'll put notability tags on the ones that do not show it.  Also, the argument "there are many article less notable than these people" does not hold weight according to the Pokémon test-- inclusion should be based on the individual article's merit alone.--Gloriamarie 00:36, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

text: The other state chairs don't need to go, but they could be expanded.  If they can't be expanded then they should probably be merged with their party's page.  I tried to create and expand former state chairs, but I couldn't find enough info to create a decent article.  I figured you'd defend Madigan (since you're from Illinois), and I think he has every right to have an article just as any state chair, just as I was saying before the state chairs are just as notable in the state as national chairs are to the nation.  Of course, with your point, are they notable enough to create an article?  I'm sure they must have some notoriety to become a state chair.  Of course the information would mostly be in the state they represent, which I think should be gathered before creating a tiny one sentence articles. Jjmillerhistorian 16:21, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Scott Wilson (judge)

message: What do people here think about turning this page into a disambiguation page between the current subject of this article, the Scottish footballer and the Scottish civil engineering company  and any other notable Scott Wilsons that turn up. To my mind, none of them is obviously a more primary meaning than any of the others (it is, after all, a name). What do folk think? Am I being hopelessly biased towards Scotland in thinking that the judge doesn't seem to have done anything hugely notable, save being a high-ranking judge? --Scott Wilson 02:51, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I suppose that User:Scott Wilson has standing to raise this issue. I am an American and write judicial biography articles, but I wouldn't say that Judge Wilson is astonishingly noteworthy. On the other hand, I'm not in a position to say much about the Scottish footballer. There will probably be relatively few users in a position with knowledge of both to do the weighing. :) As for the engineering company, if this does become a disambiguation page I have no objection to mentioning it, but I don't think it should be a factor in this decision unless and until the company has an article of its own.
