thread_title: Movie addaption

message: I have started to improve this article. I think the infobox and header are OK now. I've tried to make the 3 books consistent. Note that there is also the Larklight trilogy]article to consider later. It may be possible to merge the 3 book articles into that one, but I'm not sure at this point. If we can try to improve each book article, we could consider that at the end. I would suggest that the trilogy could contain a bit more generic info about the whole series, along with a summary of each book and a 'See main article' for each of the 3. But the main problem is the huge bulk of text in 'plot summary'. I suggest this is split up as per WP:BOOK guidelines, as per the following template section. Any work towards this goal would be great. I'm going to paste the relevant part of the template below - we need to fill in the gaps.
Also, does this series not count as steampunk?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Perudafourie (talk • contribs) 12:01, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

message: User:Dbachmann and an anon editor 82.113.106.200 have identified this expression as a name of God, without citing sources.

Talk:XML template engine

message: I don't feel that this article belongs in Wikipedia. The concept of "XML Template Engines" is not generally recognized in the XML community, except perhaps as a name of implementations of the XSLT language, which are covered on the XSLT page; the category and its analysis appears to be the original work of the article's author. If there's any useful content in this article that's not already present elsewhere, it belongs on the XSLT page.
(Note also that there's a lot of overlap with Template processor, and no obvious relationship with Template engine.)

replies: text: Not sure really, now it just reads as a summary of xslt and xquery. As you say, this is not a common term. XQuery is not a template engine, its a query language, so inclined to just redirect to XSLT. Justinc (talk) 16:46, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Template talk:Compass direction

message: The ordinal directions' pages are usually disambiguation pages, with no substantive information. For that reason, there's no point in linking directly to them, and links to them are disambiguated to point to articles. When a link to one of them refers to the ordinal direction, I disambuguate the link to Ordinal direction, which redirects to Cardinal direction, which covers the ordinal directions as well. I don't see much point in having a template where four of the links need to point to Ordinal direction. To put it differently, there's not much point in having a template for easier navigation when half the links don't have anything substantive to navigate to. For now, I'm disambiguating links in the template to point to Ordinal direction. --Tkynerd 15:44, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have chosen, for the time being, not to revert User:Tobias Conradi's edits made earlier today. However, I expect to see an explanation of exactly how this change makes this template (and the pages it's used on) more useful for the reader. Absent that justification, I will revert Tobias's changes soon. See also Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) and WP:DPL. Linking to dab pages is a problem, contrary to Tobias's edit summary. --Tkynerd 02:04, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: A week has gone by and no justification, so I've reverted Tobias's edits per the above. --Tkynerd 19:15, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm adding more detail about why I don't want links to the directional pages from this template. I regularly disambiguate links to Northwest to point to the correct article. There are currently four articles that legitimately link to Northwest (in mainspace, that is). If this template links directly to Northwest, every article that uses it will also link there -- "legitimately" -- and I'll have to keep track of all of them as well, after doing the analysis to figure out why the damned page links to Northwest when there's no link to that page in the article's wikitext. Grrrr. No. The same principle applies for the other ordinal directions as well, although I don't regularly disambiguate links to them. --Tkynerd 16:05, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, I hadn't read the discussion before I made my change. I can appreciate it makes life easier for editors to leave things as they are, but for readers it is just frustrating and apparently pointless. If we can't have NW, NE, SW, SE linking to distinct pages, then logically the only alternative is to remove them from the template altogether! --Dr Greg 11:31, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: See the last two sentences of my first post in this thread above. As those comments make clear, I myself find this template pointless in itself, so I'm not particularly sympathetic to any attempt to keep it usable. The compass rose at Cardinal direction (the article to which Ordinal directions redirects) does a better job of concisely conveying the compass directions. --Tkynerd 21:17, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Johnny and the Bomb

message: This is a call to arms to make the Terry Pratchett article a Featured Article. It will greatly help the cause if all the side articles that link from it are of a reasonable standard. Terry Pratchett has around 40 side articles (ie the ones relating to his work) - I don't think they are all expected to be GA (Good Article) standard for TP to become featured, but certain basic elements will be looked at for sure. 
A full list of the sub articles is here on the TP talk page: I'm posting this comment on the talk pages of each article on the list. Editors reading may also like to help with the TP article too? 
The main issue, especially with smaller articles, is often a finding reasonable amount of citations, and prose can sometimes be a little  POV too. Coverage of the topic is probably less important, but of course it needs to be reasonably good. --Matt Lewis (talk) 15:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

* 1881 – "New Testament was published"; 
* 1884 – "Old Testament" published; 
* 1894 – "Apocrypha" published.

Talk:Kalidah

message: My cousins/best friends as a young teenager used to own an ancient copy of one of the Oz books - I always thought it was The Wizard of Oz, though I also didn't realize at the time that there were more books in the series than just the one.  Weird...I don't recall the kalidah being in it at all, but I recall the book referring to "crocobears" - obviously a cross between a crocodile and a bear (looking online I find "croco-bears" under some guy named  Steve Cole, but this book was much more ancient than that probably is).  While normally I would have blew it off, the image for this article shows what happened to the crocobears as I recall in my book - they were chasing the group across a ravine on a log, and the Tin Woodman chopped it down and they fell, "dashing on the rocks below".  The pure gruesomeness of the situation at that age cemented my memory of it all.  Are the crocobears of my youth just some republishing's alteration of the kalidah?  Does anyone have any incite into this?  I don't recall the age of the book but knowing the other books of the caliber in the house I believe it was within the first 20 years of the 20th century.  -- Somarinoa (talk) 00:12, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Also, this addition (back in 2011) added a substantial amount of references for the statement , apparently supporting an early dating for the moral influence theory of atonement. Yet, all those sources merely state that the idea of moral transformation or moral example can be found in those early writings; but none of them state that the theory of moral transformation was expounded by them.
