message: Hello, everyone; I am the first writer of the article on AAADT. Should anyone wish to give feedback on this article, or edit/expand it, that would be more than appreciated. Thank you! Emmegan 00:44, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure that the company first performed with only black dancers? I realize the Ailey site says that, but I have some doubts. I don't have access to my books right now.
Perhaps say the company "now" has "about" 30 dancers, since the phrase follows immediately after the 1958 date?
Otherwise, Wikipedia shouldn't really be in the business of copying the official web site's information. 
who runs the company now? or did i just miss where it said that..   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.69.194.127 (talk) 17:39, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: re:30 dancers vs. 1958.  If you pay attention to the tense of the sentences, it should be clear.  Intro paragraphs often have disparate information to give the reader a broad understanding of the article. Dkreisst (talk) 10:10, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

message: These two sentences are confusing:
"Many arts organizations have experienced stresses upon the death of their founding artistic director. Many others have also contributed to the success of AAADT, but the work of Michael Kaiser, the Executive Director from 1990 to 1993, is often cited [1] [2] [3] as a model of successful nonprofit performing arts management."
The reason is that by staring with "Many arts ..." and then having the next sentence be "Many others", we immediate expect a parallel construction and think that this means "Many other arts organization", when in reality the subject has shifted to "many other people".  I will make that change.

Talk:Lake Tear of the Clouds

message: Because there's no mention of it in the Bartleby article linked to, and geographically, it must be questioned. There's a historical marker at the Rt 28 lodge where Roosevelt got the telegram and it is a few miles east of Newcomb, NY, while Long Lake is off to the west of Newcomb.

Talk:Seventh Air Force

message: The portion of the article (wiki)  on the Seventh Air Force in World War II  fails to clarify that when the 11th Bomb Group returned  to the Central Pacific, it again became a part of the Seventh Air Force and together with the 30th Bomb Group engaged in operations in the Central Pacific .
The wiki also completely fails to mention the 494th Bomb Group, which flew  B24 liberators and was a  part of the Seventh Air Force. The 494th operated from Anguar in the Palau islands and later from Okinawa. This group's B-24s were the first B-24s to bomb the Japanese home islands.
The wiki is also missing the most important reference source for the 7th Air Force-the official history of the Seventh Air Force, a 1946 book called One Damned Island After Another: The Saga of the Seventh Air Force in World War II by Clive Howard .

Talk:List of cities in New York

message: Is incorrect, the city of NY was first incorporated as a city not even a few months before the city of Albany was. Both recieved charters from Gov. Dongan. In a purely technical point the current city of NY was chartered in 1898 since it is distinct from the NYC that preceded it.24.182.142.254 (talk) 22:07, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

message: I counted.  There are only 595 municipalities in this list, not 596.  I went to the Census Bureau's 2022 Population Estimates of Municipalities of New York.  They have 14 municipalities starting with "T" while this list has only 13.  The extra entry at the Census website is a "Tuxedo village" with a 2022 population of 3128.  But I searched and found no evidence that the "Village of Tuxedo" exists.  There is a Town of Tuxedo in Orange County, NY, that has a Village of Tuxedo Park, but that is a different village from "Tuxedo".  In fact, the 3128 population the Census lists is the balance if you subtract the 2022 population estimate of the Village of Tuxedo Park from the 2022 population estimate of the Town of Tuxedo.  I searched again:  there is no evidence that the rest of the Town of Tuxedo ever incorporated to form this "Village of Tuxedo" separate from the Village of Tuxedo Park.  So I think the Census Bureau made a mistake; I wrote to them about it already.Inkan1969 (talk) 20:21, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

message: I was living there until December 1971, (as a child, so my perspective is limited by that). However, I think the end date should be more like 1973. I know the base did not close with our departure, and people (military families) that left in 1973 were in a transition period. It could be that certain functions ceased in 1971, but it was still operated by the Air Force in 1973 under the command of an Air Force officer.

Talk:New Zealand red admiral

message: Regarding the NZ Red Admiral, I am with the Monarch Butterfly NZ Trust, an organisation which is very concerned about phone calls from New Zealanders that love the Monarch, to the effect that they (callers) don't see as many Monarchs as they used to. Then, in conversation, they would add that they don't see as many of NZ's other butterflies as they once did. Accordingly the MBNZ Trust is embarking on two surveys this summer - transects of NZ butterflies/diurnal moths and also tagging of Monarch butterflies.
More reports come in every day that there are concerns about the loss of butterflies (pollinators) worldwide - so it seems that our project is timely. We welcome inquiries from other people in NZ who would like to become involved, more information on www.monarch.org.nz.
In our presentations and workshops, we have been describing the Red Admiral (NZ) as Vanessa gonerilla gonerilla - but today were advised by a prominent Landcare entomologist that it is correctly named Bassaris gonerilla - which is correct? We dont want to "mislead" people that we're trying to educate!
Comments welcome - here or by email to the MBNZT. Madambutterfly 01:42, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
