Talk:Calla

message: an exparmental band from New York City
:See Calla (band) - MPF 13:50, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The single paragraph in the "Taxonomy" section only explains that Zantedeschia aethiopica, which is commonly referred to as a Calla lilly, is no longer classified as being in the Calla genus. It doesn't say anything about the taxonomy of the flower that is the subject of the article, nor does it give the etymology of Callus palustris. It's important to note that this plant, like many other living things has been reclassified fairly recently, but shouldn't there be something about the taxonomy of this plant?

Talk:Boy in Darkness

message: I may be wrong, but I'm sure the book doesn't refer to "The Boy" as Titus at all.
:The name Titus is mentioned only once in the book. Perhaps by accident. Still it's tied closely enough to Gormenghast to be considered part of the "series". In Peake's mind it was probably all the same anyway. --Steerpike 22:12, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, there's only one mention of the name Titus (p. 28). The Boy is also referred to once as "the young earl" (p. 10). --Bennievermeer 21:43, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps it depends on the edition? In "Boy in Darkness and other stories" (published 2007), Sebastian Peake says the version included is from the first edition of the novella, which was "the one most free from the errors found in subsequent editions." The foreword to Boy in Darkness in this collection explicitly says the boy is never called Titus. --fvw<SMALL>*</SMALL> 04:01, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Infobox 

message: Soho Theatre, in June 1971 put on an adaptation of "Boy In Darkness" at The Kings Head, Islington. I understood this to have been the first time the Peake family authorised a performance of his work. The adaptation was by Paul Alexander, who also directed, and design was by Hayden Griffen; I was stage manger and set-builder etc for "a share of the profits" and my sister in law Candida Fawsitt played "The Goat". (Ref The Stage Thursday 06 May 1971 -- “Boy in Darkness by Mervyn Peaks, adapted by Paul Alexander, opening on June 15”)

Talk:USS Massey

message: User:Thewolfchild I don't understand why you have moved the image of Massey from the start of the Namesake section down to halfway. You cite mos:imgloc, but I don't see what in that guide supports your move, indeed in that section the left image of a boy with a Siberian Husky is directly below the Location header. With my layout the Massey image fits completely within the Namesake section, with yours it intrudes into the Construction and Career section which disturbs the layout.

replies: text: I take it you edit WP on a pc? I was editing on my mobile at the time and, following your edit, the text was MOS:SANDWICHed between the image of Massey and the infobox. After seeing your comment, I had a look at the page on my pc and saw what you were referring to, and made some layout changes, using both mobile and pc. The Massey image is now under the infobox, (next to WWII on pc, next to the paragraph starting of with 1942 in the namesake section on mobile, so it works both ways) The images no longer sandwich text or drop into other sections. The layout, with the construction after the lead and the added level-2 "History" header, is now more in line with the layout found on other ship articles. Other than that, the lead could use some expanding and I will work on that soon, but I think for now the immediate problems have hopefully been addressed.

I've been going along with the names given in the ATC system as a guide, as they are generally both non-proprietary and the most commonly used, and in this case, I believe Prasterone is in fact the INN.

thread_title:  Untitled 

message: This article is in great shape and would easily meet the GA criteria as it stands. I have a few suggestions for it's further development:
*I'd suggest mentioning the RAAF and US mining operations and USAAF strategic bombing raids on Balikpapan (for the former, see pp 601-602 of this, for the latter pp. 316-22 of this)
*The debates within the Australian Government over the operation could be covered in more detail. David Horner provides good coverage of this in his book High Command. MacArthur's duplicity is worth mentioning (in which he played the US Chiefs of Staff off against the Australian Government, with neither being enthusiastic about the operation but both believing that the other party was).
*It might be worth checking if the 7th Division had had the same massive turnover of personnel as the 9th had experienced before the Borneo Campaign (as veterans were demobilised or assigned to other duties).
*"Three US Navy escort carriers were also assigned to provide fighter support" - I think that this was due to concerns that Tarakan wouldn't be ready in time as a base for fighters?
*I'd suggest discussing the tactics the Allies used in this battle, where massive amounts of firepower were made available in an attempt to minimise casualties. From memory, Gavin Long commented on the massive extent to which the 7th Division was reinforced and supported.
*On the topic of Long, there might be some maps which could be used from the now-PD volume of the official history?
*" beginning a few weeks before the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki effectively ended the war." - the Soviet intervention is usually also noted as being one of the main factors as well
*"In this regard, and in light of the strategic situation which had effectively negated many of the Allies stated reasons for the operation," - I think that historians go further than this, arguing that as there was no intent to make the planned follow-on attacks into Java by the time of the landing at Balikpapan, it should never have occurred.
