--Would be fun to see a mention of his run-in with Sheriff Buford Pusser of Walking Tall fame. I've heard Buffett mention this during concerts.
--No mention of the Coconut Telegraph newsletter that ran (I THINK it's now defunct) for several years; I used to subscribe.
--Would be great to see a brief mention of JB's affinity with the Navy, such as his doing survival training at a Navy facility and his friendship with some naval officers, and his public service award granted by, I believe, either the Superintendent of the Naval Academy or maybe it was the Chief of Naval Operations.

Talk:Lake Biwa

message: The article says the lake was designated a "World Heritage site".  This seems to refer to Unesco's list of heritage sites but it does not appear on List_of_World_Heritage_Sites_in_Asia_and_Australasia#Japan.  Ramsar sites are usually referred to as "Ramsar sites".
Also, I removed reference to the Ramsar Convention's 1971 conference, because it duplicates existing information not directly related to the lake, and more importantly, as given the date appeared to be the date of designation as a Ramsar site.  That's apparently not the case.

thread_title:  Delegate in politics

message: The text indicates "proportional representation" for the Democrats, but is immediately followed by a 15% threshold.  Those statements can both be true only if the total delegates are reduced by the percentage of votes going to candidates with <15%, or some other apportionment is applied to the residual (<15%) votes.  (i.e., are the proportions of the whole divided among candidates with >15%?)  I presume the answer is all regular delegates are divided proportionally among candidates with >15%.

thread_title:  Clarification requested 

message: Under both the Democrat and Republican section it says they are "...chosen/elected at the state or local level". By whom are they elected? Popular vote? How long do they stay "in office"? And most importantly, who are they? Isn't there one of those WP-typical "List of ... delegates" as with so many things? All in all I find this article (and the Super Tuesday one) to be rather chaotic and difficult to understand.  200.29.216.132 (talk) 18:23, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: They are mostly (except the "party leaders and elected officials" category with the Democrats and the three RNC members per state with the Republicans) non-notable average Joeys who engage themselves in their party on grass-root level (although I admitt that a certain percentage of delegates is made up by lobbyists, but it doesn't change that they are mainly almost all non-notable). It wouldn't make sense to make a list of them (and their names aren't even all published). Important are the numbers of them and, as you said, how they are selected. The thing is, as always in the US, every state decides itself who is allowed to participate, but usually it's party members with the possibillity of same-day registration, so de facto it's open to anyone (except that most states don't allow to vote in more than one party's primary). The voting/selection method is also different in any state, although nowadays it's popular vote almost anywhere (but when a party has a sitting president, democracy is often heavily reduced and many state parties use the possibility to switch to whatever selection method they want in order to best protect the sitting president, and some of them even select their candidate just by e. g. a party committee vote, without any participation of other voters). --SamWinchester000 (talk) 23:59, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

*D If known good article must should more write well.  Chris 01:33, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: this article refers to Natsume Inc. (USA) as a subsidiary of Natsume Co., Ltd (Japan, now Natsume Atari) and treats them pretty much as the same entity, but they currently aren't, and apparently haven't been for quite some time:
Interview with Natsume Inc. CEO Hiro Maekawa
"Natsume Inc. acts independently of Natsume Co. Ltd. There is a relationship between both companies but Natsume Inc. is not a subsidiary of Natsume Co. Ltd. Natsume Inc. is free to develop and license titles from any partners we see fit. Thus, all decision making starts and ends with the office in the U.S."
I recall reading somewhere that Natsume Inc was founded as a subsidiary of Natsume Co., Ltd but they became independent sometime in the mid-90s, but I can't find the source of this - but at a guess it's probably the 1994 date Maekawa took over the company or the 1995 date it was "re-organised" as per Maekawa's interview. 82.11.93.218 (talk) 22:30, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Needs distinction between Natsume Inc. and Natsume Co., Ltd 

message: This article is basically trying to cover two completely separate game companies, and the fact that their names are so similar and that they've changed their names as well just adds to the confusion, splitting it into 2 articles would be better in my opinion.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.37.33.132 (talk) 08:14, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that the article should be split. These companies were once directly related, but it's been nearly 25 years since that stopped being true.

Talk:List of naval ships of Germany

message: Two questions: 1) Wasn't "DKM" used as the prefix on all Kriegsmarine ship names, including battleships and aux cruisers? If so, why aren't we consistent about that in our link names? And 2) Is the Lützow that is listed under Pocket battleships the same as the one listed under Heavy cruisers? --Wernher 01:22, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: There were two Lützows in the Kriegsmarine. The first was a heavy cruiser of the Hipper class, sold uncompleted to the Soviet Union in 1939.  Subsequently, the former Deutschland (pocket battleship/heavy cruiser) was renamed Lützow.Cosal 02:40, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

text: This has come up a couple times - so far no one has presented any evidence or usage examples showing that "DKM" was ever official in the way that "HMS" or "USS" are. Some articles are under DKM because of ill-advised moves ( some people feel really compelled to have a ship prefix, have a hard time believing that they might not have been used :-) ). Stan 07:00, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, thanks for the clarification. One should perhaps research this a little more. Also, contrary to the "DKM" prefix, do we know for sure that the "SMS" prefix was actually used? --Wernher 22:17, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm pretty sure about that one, although now that I go look for a definitive statement in my library, I can't find one. :-) One little cheat is to go look at the German WP, presumably they tend to be more familiar with their own ships. Stan 23:21, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)

text: SMS (meaning His Majesty's Ship) was definitely used for all Imperial cruisers and capital ships.  DKM was never used on ships' names;  it is merely an occasionally used abbreviation for Deutsche Kriegsmarine.Cosal 00:48, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: SMS was the only prefix officially used in Germany, and only during the period of the Imperial Navy (i.e. up to 1919).  DKM is a western creation (presumably of English-speaking war historians), and FGS likewise is a monikor slapped down by NATO, not officially utilized internally by Germany, and not officially prefix to the name of a ship.  This is similar to the situation in France with FS.  Joshbaumgartner 17:41, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:UK Wikipedians' notice board

message: Hello all,
We are very happy to announce that the conference dedicated to minoritized languages on the Wikimedia projects will be back for its 7th edition, to be held in Waterford City, Ireland, in September 2024. The exact date will be announced as soon as possible.
Getting back to its roots, in the Celtic languages and nations, the event gathers people from communities and languages that are underrepresented on the Wikimedia projects. It is a place where people working on growing and maintaining their communities can meet, learn from each other, and support each other on topics like community growth, technical tools, or collaboration with partners. 
Celtic Knot 2024, will be an in-person event, held in Waterford, Ireland's oldest city which has an abundance of cultural heritage and history. We are currently exploring options to make conference resources (talks, panels, etc.) available to those who are unable to attend in person.
We are currently gathering input from the community to build a conference tailored to your needs: whether you attended a previous edition of the Celtic Knot or not, if you are involved in underrepresented languages on the Wikimedia Projects, please take a few minutes to fill in the community survey, and make sure to share the information with your local group. The survey is open until January 21st. Many thanks in advance!
As we are starting to build the concept and the program, we will regularly improve the existing event pages on Meta and post updates on the talk page of the event.
The core organizing team is composed of Amy O’Riordan (WCI), Sophie Fitzpatrick (WCI), Daria Cybulska (WMUK), Richard Nevell (WMUK), supported by Léa Lacroix (community engagement consultant). If you have ideas or suggestions, if you would like to get involved in the conference, feel free to contact any of us.
We’re looking forward to seeing you at the Celtic Knot! Best, Richard Nevell (WMUK) (talk) 11:41, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

message: The section lattice predictions is highly misleading. Without going into detail I have two objections. The first is that the quenched results for the glueballs may have nothing to do with observed physical states as a strong mixing with other states is expected. My second objection concerns the lattice determination of hybrid mesons. In non-exotic channels hybrid interpolating fields will also couple to standard quark antiquark states. A thorough determination has to include both the hybrids and the regular states. As no reference is given so far the claims provided in this section should not be taken serious. As a lattice theorist I would volunteer to write a new section on this but wanted to first post this to have some time for discussion. --Tarsilia (talk) 18:16, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
