Talk:Randy VanWarmer

message: How does a song go #1 in Alaska?  That is also similar to a song going #1 in your neighborhood right?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.233.203 (talk) 22:49, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  #1 in Alaska? 

message: While this article does clearly cite the Drachman ("Release") interview as a source, it imports much of its wording wholesale without paraphrasing it. This is problematic from a fairness perspective and also because the point of view of the interviewer colors the wording, making it non-Wikipedia-esque. Not sure this would motivate me to rewrite the article, given that I don't know anything about the subject that I didn't read here, but maybe someone else will. - AlanUS (talk) 13:08, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Raoul Șorban

message: For those who speak Romanian, this should be quite interesting. In short, a British historian who served on the commission ivestigating the Holocaust in Romania nominates Şorban as an impostor with fascist connections, who became a Securitate agent and managed to trick Israeli authorities into believing that he had actually done something for the rescue of Jews, who did not have academic credentials to save his life, and who used his position to propel far right discourse into the mainstream, including the revisionist diversion according to which Romania's Nazi-allied regime "saved Jews". Also discussed in passing are his anti-Hungarian discourse, his association with pseudo-historians such as Ilie Ceauşescu (the brother of that Ceauşescu) and the old-time fascist Iosif Constantin Drăgan. I'll add from it later. Dahn (talk) 13:51, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Technically, radiation therapy in general is not considered a subset of nuclear medicine.  In fact, most radiation therapy has nothing to do with the nucleus of an atom (e.g. external beam therapy involves accelerated electrons and bremmstrahlung x-rays).  The specific field of nuclear medicine is a well-defined specialty considered a part of medical physics and having to do with the use of radionuclides for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Talk:Strugglers for the Unity and Freedom of al-Sham

message: It seems a bit odd to translate almost the whole of the long name for this organisation into English, but to leave out the final word "al-Sham". Such practice inevitably promotes alienation in the many readers who don't recognise the reference. Another example occurs when an American journalist who whould never include the statement "Pierre was praying to Dieu" consistently refer to Arabs praying to Allah. (For those who don't know, Arab Christians also pray to Allah; and Jesus used a close Aramaic cognate). 
The only possible justification I can see for naming the group this way is that al-Sham under some circumstances could be ambiguous, meaning either Syria or Levant. In this case however, it is unmistakeably the latter meaning, as the group indentifies itself with Syria's role in Lebanon. I therefore have in mind to change the reference. In keeping with my usual practice, I'd like to first give other readers time to react.

:I could not find any evidence that would support the notability of this subject. A murderer shot Howard Rue Sikorski, and was executed. Being the first to be executed in a particular year and in a particular state would not have happened if the subject would not have committed the one murder covered by WP:BIO1E.

message: I knew him. Sorry if this isn't a place for this, but his music was avant garde, and so amazing. My mother Ellie Roberts, née Vandermeuse, used to sing for Christmas Eve at St. Agnes by the Lake, and we got to know Ray and Glennie. Mom was the soprano for the debut performance of Gifts II, and I got to see the production and prep work. Some of his music was specifically written to her capabilities. 
His funeral was a simple, but beautiful affair. He was an avowed atheist even at the end, and yet St. Agnes embraced him as one of their own. I thought I would share my experience with Ray. Morgan Phoenix (talk) 06:24, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

Talk:New Jersey Route 109

message: Google Maps has the portion of Route 109 between Washington St. and the official so. terminus of the Garden State Pkwy. labeled as "Garden State Pkwy" and gives locations on this stretch as having addresses on the Garden State Pkwy.  The surface level photos looking north approaching the parkway show prominent signs for the left turn to continue on Route 109 to meet US 9, but no sign pointing straight ahead for the GSP, and after it's too late to turn off, a small "TOLL ROAD" sign above another small regulatory sign.

I don't know where the first reassurance sign is saying "Garden State Parkway" northbound from the southern terminus, and I haven't the patience now to take a Google sign truck trip.  I've never been farther south than the Margate exit in person.

message: I've made a start on the article, and I'm going to call it a night for now.  Wikipedia writing isn't that much different from any other research writing- we just keep to the verifiable facts and cite our sources.  I'll check back in to see if there's more I can do to help.  I don't know much about physics, so I was working from the sources I could find, and I'm sure there's a lot that needs fixing and clarifying.  There were a few specific areas where I think it still needs work...
*In the infobox, would we correctly describe his nationality as Namibian, or South African?
*I could find very little information about the exact nature of his diamond research.  What were his most significant contributions to this field?
*I know he wrote more than 300 articles, but a list of 5 or 10 of the most influential/significant ones would fit in really well.
*If the university (I gather that's where you are?) will release the rights to a good photo to us, that would be fabulous.
And of course, we'll need to clean up the style so it reads better- I think my start is pretty choppy.  I'm glad to help with coding and formatting, too, since I have a small amount of experience in those areas.

message: The article is about the concept of a "cognitive elite", i.e. individuals who exhibit higher levels of intelligence compared to the rest of a populace who supposedly have an advantage in terms of achieving success and amassing wealth. Nietzsche's concept of a "superman", on the other hand, relates to self-improvement and morality, and seems to have little (if anything) to do with innate cognitive abilities or any ruling elite in society. As such, I believe the section regarding Nietzsche should be either moved somewhere else or removed entirely.
