message: This article contained a lot of time-sensitive material, for example, how many students she has trained and what societies she is president of. I fixed as much of this as I could, with references where I was able to find them.
I have removed two of the prizes because I could not find any reliable source that stated Avraham had won the award. I hope someone can provide a reference so that they can be replaced.
"Avraham has been awarded the Sir Bernard Katz Prize from the Humboldt Foundation (Germany)" . . . and the Teva Prize for Groundbreaking Research in the Field of Rare Diseases from Teva Pharmaceutical Industries.
* Katz Prize - I found a Katz Prize from the Biophysical Society, but no mention of Avraham. I also found the Humboldt Foundation, but no Katz prize or mention of Avraham.
* Teva Prize - Teva has lots of prizes, but I couldn't find Avraham's name.

message: Closer claimed "The only reason for this nomination is that it is supposedly necessary for procedural reasons, since there has supposedly been less than the necessary 5 days discussion.".  Anyone who actually read the DRV discussion would find the following reasons for holding this discussion or keeping the article stated there, which are not about time for discussion:
#Several editors objected to the close of AFD1, so there was no consensus for deletion.
#The actual consensus in the first AFD was keep.
#The arguments about BLP requiring deletion are not persuasive.
#The closer of the first AFD did not close based on their discussion, simply based on their personal opinion.
#There are multiple reliable sources referring to him as one of the most famous faces in China, so he meets WP:BIO
#The content met WP:ATT and WP:NPOV as well as WP:BIO.
#There is no BLP issue here, nor is there a 15 minutes of fame issue as the meme has lasted four years.
It seems quite obvious that the closer of this AFD intentionally avoided engaging the actual discussion again, and hence that this close is completely invalid.  GRBerry 16:54, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Tait Tower

message: I've done some research into the Tait Tower in the Mitchell Library in Glasgow and almost all the texts I've seen refer to the tower being demolished in 1939 because it might be a "beacon" for bombers. One even points out that there was a great deal of public outcry over the plans to demolish the tower which suggests that a good reason was needed although I've seen no reason given other than the "beacon" one. The referenced-text on the main page claiming it's an urban myth doesn't provide any evidence beyond "another tower wasn't demolished" and "it was demolished three months before the war began". The second is a bit contentious as evidence since the war with Germany wasn't exactly a surprise. I'm going to try and check-out the referenced text but until I've looked at all the facts (or seen some strong evidence such as the official reason for demolishing the tower) I'm going to make the info on the main page less definite. --Zagrebo 13:31, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

That would be a bit tricky for a Mauser or Springfield; those "cock-on-opening" actions are pretty stiff to open, especially when initiating extraction of a spent round.

Talk:I Shot an Arrow into the Air

message: They are at each others' throats for the sake of drama. It's a writing crutch. Which I hate to say, because the show's writing is so great overall. I guess when perfection is the near norm, mistakes leap out at me. By the time the Zone went off the air, it was easily researched that astronauts were by the early 60s being selected on the bases of ability to get along, and science aptitude. At least by the time they were beginning work on Apollo. I get weary of astronaut ego figuring so prominently into character development. Not much about this show is lame, but to see ex-pilots duking it out as if they're at a local Florida dive bar is certainly disappointing. As a taxpayer if nothing else!
