Talk:Pigment dispersion syndrome

message: How is this diagnosed? Toby 12:06, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: note

message: Many people are left confused and frustrated when they leave the doctor's office. While patients with PDS have to realize that this disease is not all black and white, patients do have options and are entitled to learn about this disease without being left in the dark. I now have a group and it is located at the URL noted below. This group will include only members with PDS or PG. I will have reference links to useful medical information that I have found over the years all in one convenient place. But most of all, this group will consist of something that is more invaluable than any definitions or medical books can provide, other people with PDS, like you and I - stories, history, experiences.
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/pigment/
Information can only be viewed if you are a member; this is to help keep privacy wrapped up a bit tighter than open to the entire world ! :) I understand that some people are not sure if what they have is PDS or not. If you do not want to join the group, I can still be reached at  mailto:shawn@photoshawn.com  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.120.172.195 (talk) 17:17, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Hamaguchi Osachi

message: It says that his political party (in his little info box there on the side) that he was part of Rikken Seiyukai. He wasn't, he was in direct opposition to them because he was formerly part of the Kenseikai, which then merged with Seiyu Honto to make the Minseito, of which Hamaguchi became president of, and became Prime Minister of Japan with a Minseito cabinet. ...In short, I'm just going to correct this rather substantial mistake. --220.237.3.4 09:54, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rikken Seiyukai 

message: I think the Tokyo Station photo captions are incorrect.  Hamaguchi did not die on that spot, but rather lived on for another 10 months.  "scene of assassination" or "scene of shooting" would be better.  "Scene of death" makes it sound like he died immediately on that spot.  --Westwind273 (talk) 22:59, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: - I've reworded the captions in this article together with the descriptions on the original images uploaded at Wiki Commons to clarify that they show the scene of the attempted assassination and not his death. --DAJF (talk) 13:59, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

message: In cases like Ozaki Yukio and Katō Takaaki, any chance to change article title to Hamaguchi Osachi, or make a redirect? Of course, it involves a debatable subject for titles ... --Omotecho (talk) 06:18, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Commodores

thread_title:  "Zoom" 

message: I removed the phrase that said, "Richie's departure was evident after it was mentioned to the band why his distinct sound would never be a part of The Commodores". That didn't make sense to me, because Lionel Richie's sound was a part of the Commodores until he left the group. Many of their biggest hits -- "Three Times a Lady", "Still", "Easy", "Sail On", and others -- were songs that Lionel Richie wrote and sung the lead vocals on. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:24, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

message: I finally found the source for this quotation which has been floating around in this article unsupported for years. Hooray and such. (When I saw the source we had before, a self-published book from 2014, I was sure this was a case of citogenesis.) Eman235/talk 18:07, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia Signpost/2006-09-18/Citizendium

message: Is it possible to prevent Wikipedia (even though it is GFDL) to be downloaded and taken by Larry Sanger. This story is a really sad cause for Sanger. He tried for DigitalUniverse (which doesn't seem to work at all ... too complex) and now he is going to rip off wikipedia to make a citizendium, like that is a really sad attempt to stay in the wiki business. Lincher 12:19, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That depends on whether or not Citizendium will be  published under the GFDL or some other license. If it is, there's nothing to stop the project copying the database other than the fact that it'll make them appear as just another Wikipedia mirror. From the sounds of it, Sanger is trying to build up the resource from scratch. To be honest, I hope the site is under the GFDL, which'd allow us to copy their efforts back onto here (if the project actually gets off the ground, of course.)

replies: text: If Citizendium uses Wikipedia content to create a fork, it will have to be published under the GFDL due to the terms of that license: 'You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License.' -- Mithent 20:08, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: On principle, I try never to mention articles by Andrew Orlowski, because they're horribly biased.  This one referred to Bomis as "Wales' titty portal"; that's not something I would ever endorse.  Ral315 (talk) 23:25, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Media coverage 

message: It is not a threat. We have reached to this level in more than five years, and it is not easy to duplicate us very fast: wikipedia has become a habit for many of us, and a shift shall be a difficult proposition for many wikipedians, including the "experts". --Bhadani 19:23, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Well, damn me if Citizendium is not exactly what I proposed here. I'm more persuasive then I thought. Dev920 22:45, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: He's been trying different ideas based on this for a while, all fail because of no editing in them. The last one seemed to just crash when i tried to load it up. Funding problem perhaps. Either way the solution is simply to ban IPs on wikipedia, not to rely on "experts" (and just where does one draw the line at what an expert is?) If only one expert with a phD in biology is around, does that mean say, their controversial view on eugenics (made up example) would become fact because only they are expert enough to do it?

Wikipedia talk:Blocking policy/Simplified

message: It's still not very simple. Perhaps you should look at :simple:Wikipedia:Bans and blocks. It's worked well for a smaller wiki (10000 pages, 5000 registered users). Since the page title is "blocking policy", perhaps all the instruction creep that isn't part of the policy should be removed, or move to an "information about blocking". The effects of being blocked, instructions for admins, and info about dynamic IPs are just information, not policy. Angela. 12:20, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I must say, I'm in awe of the Simple Wikipedia example.  I do think this wiki is being overcome with severe instruction creep, but I doubt we could go 'that' simple all at once.  Still, the existing policy could be pruned quite a bit.  I hope my suggestion motivates others to the same conclusions.  --InkSplotch 12:44, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, I dunno. I'll give it a go! %-D - David Gerard 12:48, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

text: I've added a couple of sections from the old policy before the new version goes live tomorrow. The bits I added were about personal attacks that place users in danger (it's particularly important to stress that this includes actions performed outside Wikipedia); and the bit about posting personal details, where it's worth stressing that the details needn't be accurate and that the blocks may be indefinite. I've found it helpful on several occasions to link to this section for users who are about to be blocked under it; it has avoided blocks and stopped arguments. SlimVirgin (talk) 07:19, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Comments

message: In light of discussion on Wikipedia_talk:Blocking_policy, I looked over our version here to see if additional comments needed to be included regarding critical comments on living people (including editors).  In the spirit of simplicity, I think this version covers the basic concerns save for one small addition I just made.  Under Protection I added "Persistant personal attacks."  That's in addition to "personal attacks which cause harm," as I'd fear that phrase might be used to try an overturn NPA blocks of persistant trolls/vandals.  If anyone sees a clause elsewhere where this sort of thing is clearly covered, please remove this addition...this is intended as the anti-instruction creep version. :) --InkSplotch 18:27, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Protecting the living (BLP/NPA) 

message: I have made minor changes to above with a view to make it tighter as well as lighter for the blocking administrator, and remove the element of ambiguity. In case, it has to be reverted to earlier wording, kindly do the same. --Bhadani 15:34, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Question

message: Why are they called "The Staple Singers" if their surname is "Staples"? Badagnani 23:37, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Are you saying that they all dropped the letter 's' from their last name?   The main article could be improved by saying so explicitly, rather than just inferring it.   216.99.201.252 (talk) 00:04, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  The article says: "While the family surname is "Staples", the group used the singular form for its name, 'The Staple Singers.'" There is no singular form of a family name. They are not the plural of something shot from a staple gun. 04:12, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  "...The Pips"  or "...the Pips"? 

message: The article stated that Gladis Knight won an additional seven grammys on her own or with artist other than the Pips. In reality those seven included the three she won with the Pips, so I changed the line to reflect the correct number she won without the Pips to four. Pearl2525 (talk) 18:59, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

message: This article needs a ton of work! Although the group was only around a short period of time, anyone with even a passing interest in the history of contemporary R&B should be able to tell you their impact was major on the image and style of the modern boy band (whether that is a good or bad thing is up to you).

Talk:Symphony No. 4 (Brahms)

message: 'Lushly romantic'... is it? not in the version I grew up with ! (On big black vinyl disk - Which alas I can't now find). It's the most gritty of the Brahms symphonies I recollect, tinged with an older man's tragedy. And do either of these descriptions belong in an encyclopeadia used by many people for whom lush (or gritty) is not a word of choice. Bob aka Linuxlad 20:56, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Brahms lived 12 years after completing this symphony. I cannot access the source for this assertion, but mightn't "he was aging" be a bit more accurate?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.231.6.65 (talk) 18:57, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Strangely, that's the only statement in the article that's cited or I'd simply remove it.  I don't believe it either though.  Too often, program-note writers try to assign some sort of valedictory aura to "last" pieces by composers in a genre despite the fact that there's often no evidence that the composer had any idea that the particular piece would be his last.DavidRF (talk) 19:29, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Guy (band)

message: Aaron Hall is stated in the article as being a major influence on Charlie Wilson of the Gap Band. Considering that the Gap Band had been making records since 1979, I think that statement is exactly backwards.

message: This article is a discography for a band that is listed as a biography for two people in that band. I propose that this article be renamed to Foster & McElroy (discography).

thread_title:  Article Rename Proposal 

message: Hi I have a few have a question? My name is Denzil foster one half of a production and writing team  Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy.
 our artist name was Foster& McElroy where we but we wrote and produced under our full names. most of our work has been credited together with the exception of
a few works like Rumors by the group Timex Social Club which was produced by Me( Denzil Foster) and Jay King. The problem and question i have is with our discography
 it shows En Vogue's discography. which is a big mistake! and misleading! It is obvious  that our catalog is much more extensive than En vogue and should be treated as such.
every Artist that is mentioned and and the ones that are not most who have wiki pages and show us as writers and producers on there projects at the very least should be there.
Tony Toni Tone',Club Nouveau, Timex Social club, Madonna, Alexander O'neal, Sharon Bryant,Kathy Mathis, Con funk shun, Regina belle, Samuelle, Swing out sister,The Luniz
Puff Daddy,Jay' z, Jennifer Lopez, The Lost Boyz,etc. Im just frustrated because i would like to see our body of work which is well documented be presented the same way as others. They are much smaller catalogs presented better than ours.
 Is it possible to get our discography to be represented with the the same care as our colleagues? Like En Vogues! If there is a problem of doing so, how can we help to fix it?
 I hope to not offend anyone of my comments.I realize that this site is put together by volunteers and is a tremendous amount of work put in.I myself appreciate the work.
 I just want a fare shake as my colleagues I can provide a discography which someone had provided before but it was taken down. it also never looked like others, maybe why it was     taken down but it was accurate. Again is it possible to get our  own discography up and please take down En vogue discography from our article
