thread_title: Survey and discussion

message: A few comments on my 20 Aug 2006 edits:
*I removed all references to fried eggs.  This looks like it was originally a comment on the appearance of an image of this galaxy that was extended into a hypothetical name.  It simply was not appropriate here.
*NED lists NGC 7742 as a LINER/HII, not a Seyfert, so I removed all references to this being a Seyfert galaxy.
*The distance was unreferenced, so I deleted it.
*I cannot get the image to display properly.  One image was deleted.  A second image can be found through the "What links here" link on the left.  However, I had problems adding the image into the fact box.  Help would be appreciated.

Talk:Dick Mills

message: Is it accurate to describe Mills as a composer?  I know that the BBC Radiophonic Workshop's work straddles and muddies the line between music and sound, but I always thought of Mills' "special sound" as weird outer-space noises more than music.  I'm sure he used the occasional theramin and other electronic instruments, but was he a composer?  (I ask out of a desire for accuracy, not to diminish the importance or significance of the man's work.) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 20:40, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, he wrote some funeral music for Revelation of the Daleks, so he has done *some* composing... But as you say, it's not the description that immediately springs to mind. Angmering 20:53, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There's quite a few of his cuts that really couldn't be considered sound effects, especially stuff like "Adagio" and the tracks on The Soundhouse.  I guess they step away from sound effects and move into atmospheres and ambient music.  If you listen to all the material of his that's been released over the years you'd be surprised at how much of it is actually "listenable" (for want of a better word).  There's quite a lot of ambient musicians and film/tv composers out there who, from years of watching stuff like Doctor Who, unknowingly owe him a debt of gratitude for the tracks he "composed".--Thetriangleguy 19:26, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:George Kelly (playwright)

message: These sentences: "His homosexuality was a closely guarded secret inside the family.[1] The Kelly's refused to acknowledge his homosexuality." seem contradictory. If it was a secret, then nobody outside the family knew about, so nobody would be asking about it, so why would they have to refuse to acknowledge it?

thread_title:  John Ericsson 

message: I must challenge (or at least question) the claim that Stockton Street in San Francisco is named for Commodore Stockton. My understanding is that it is named for the city of Stockton (much like Sacramento Street). Since the city of Stockton is named for the Commodore, this is a very fine distinction, I realize, but important nonetheless. I will continue to research this issue, and I invite anyone who can substantiate the claim that the street was named for the man directly, rather than at one remove, to educate me.

Talk:Colman McCarthy

message: "It should be noted that he is not a teacher in the conventional sense, but rather a "guest lecturer."'  Why? This part is largely irrelevant because it only serves as mal-intentioned speculation that a school board would not find McCarthy fit for teaching. The school offers the class because it is a subject the school wants to offer, and they only have to pay a minimal extra salary to the host teacher. 208.59.171.97 21:12, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Misleading

message: I am going to agree with a previous editor and argue that this article lacks any real purpose. As far as I can tell there is no reference on the page pointing to the existence of "West Midlands English", which make sense given that the region is an artificial construct of the late 20th century. The accents or dialects of the region are in no sense unified and grouping them together is totally arbitrary. The page should be removed, or perhaps split into more meaningful pages for the actual distinct dialects that exist within the region.

Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia Signpost/2006-04-17/Focus comparison

message: Astronomer Duncan Steel [...] described his main beef with Wikipedia as being an unrelated issue, its coverage of asteroids. Specifically, he mentioned the lack of an article on Arrius, which he named for his younger son, whereas an article already existed for Elbsteel, named for his eldest son. As Steel observed, "This causes arguments at home!"
I appreciate Dr(?) Steel was joking, but I bump into people all the time who complain in all seriousness because "I am the world's foremost authority on X and I'm outraged at how little coverage of my subject there is in Wikipedia!"  Well surely, I retort, you're the natural choice to write the articles, so why don't you get to it?

Talk:Railroad electrification in the United States

message: Could we have some text on why this would be done? - Denimadept (talk) 20:37, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There's no sane reason to do that, other than a line becoming almost obsolete due to major loss of traffic, so that the costs of maintaining the system become higher than the benefits. Other than that, on a medium or highly busy line, electric railroads operate by far more efficient and economic than non-electrified ones. In Germany, the cost per kilometer of an electric train (per ton and mile) is one fifth of that of a diesel train. -- Alexey Topol (talk) 06:29, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  De-electrification 

message: This article is a stub. It only lists some isolated electrification projects, without visible order, and without giving an overall picture of the history and development, and ultimately demise, of electrification in the US. I am also missing stats as to the overall length of today's electrified tracks in the US. It used to be 22,000 miles back in the 1950s, but now it must only be a faction of that, with little miles remaining. -- Alexey Topol (talk) 06:25, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

text: I think an operational and future vs defunct organization would be more interesting to our readers. The past is worth recording but a bit monotonous: railroads experiment with electrification early in the 20th century but drop it when diesels come along. If you want, a timeline could be added to the article to provide that view of the history. Also, per your query on my talk page, I've added a source for the California High Speed Rail need.

message: The following sentences appeared as follows in the "Ownership" section of this page:
1) The Center doesn't include either an address or telephone number on its letterhead, but is believed to be headed by conservative political operative Floyd Brown.
2) In March 2009, the Center sent out an email questioning Barack Obama's citizenship.
Both had issues regarding NPOV or notability and I have revised them for the reason below:
1) I replaced "conservative political operative" with "conservative author, speaker, and political consultant" (words that are directly out of the Floyd Brown page lead. The term "political operative" is obviously a negative term and violates Wiki's WP:NPOV guidelines.
2) Sentence was deleted. It has nothing to do with "Ownership" so it has no place in this section and fails the WP:Notability test for placement within this article. One e-mail from a entity such as this isn't relevant unless someone's personal bias elevates it to that level.
