replies: text: I'm with Drilnoth here; this is clearly at least as notable as any of the other D&D modules, each of which has their own page.  This one has the additional notability of (1) being about an iconic D&D character and furthering its plot, (2) being one of the few modules that takes place across multiple campaign worlds, and (3) being the last officially released module for 2nd Edition (which I realise isn't mentioned in the article - this is my understanding, but I can't find citation for it right now).

replies: text: This article has been up for two VfDs before, both ended in indecision and led to the article sitting around, being neglected even moreso and allowed to run rampant.  It has so many WP:NPOV, WP:CITE, WP:Weasel, and WP:NOR violations that there is hardly any data that is rescuable.  It needs to be taken care of now.  I mean, its really the last straw.  Hesitation has already lead to its stagnation.  There is no material in this article that is not either already mentioned on the main article or could be made to effectively merge efficiently.  Any information would better be reconstructed from the ground up, where a source may be named, and NPOV can be better enforced. Unfortunately, the only viable solution, is to completely eradicate this article and start from the ground up.  I have never seen an article in a state even close to this come back to help either itself or another article.  Well, I have, but it involved a complete kill-and rebuild philosiphy, deleting an entire section, and then rebuilding it from the ground up.  Essentially so the article could still exist while being rebuilt.  In this case however that is not an option.  Time has run out for this article and it needs to be taken care of promtly.

Talk:Telekura

message: Whoever first penned this article appeared preoccupied with linking telekura with high school girls to the detriment of facts or NPOV. I've removed the ridiculous 'facts' casually thrown into the article, most notably the outlandish claim that the majority of all people who use Telekura are girls of school age, as there was no evidence to back up the information. Of course schoolgirls use terkura and merukua, but there's no evidence to suggest they do so more than any other age bracket (on the contrary according to the once source quoted). I've moved the information linking telekura to enjo kousai to the the enjo kousai article.ShizuokaSensei 06:30, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:List of Copa Libertadores top scorers

message: Is it worth doing a Top 10 All time topscorers? We'll need info about all the scorers of all the competitions though, since counting only the top scorers of each year is not enough. Mariano(t/c) 07:13, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds good, but what exactly will the list comprise? Will it count goals from all the tournaments? (e.g. Libertadores, UEFA Champions League, World Cup, Supercopa, Euro Cup etc.). If so, it will take a while to make the list but I'll be glad to help. Bruno18 14:16, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

text: Ok, I understand now. Well,in that case it won't be very hard as the RSSSF website already has an all-time top scorers list: click here (the list is on the bottom after the year-by-year topscorers). Do you want to create a complete new article for the all-time topscorers or just add the list below the year-by-year topscorers? Bruno18 19:02, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

text: I made the list Mariano. Let me know what you think about it and feel free to edit the article if you don't like the format. BTW since you're the Argentinian football expert can you confirm if Juan Carlos Sanchez is Argentinian or Bolivian? (he's last in the all-time topscoring list). CONMEBOL website says he's Argentinian but the RSSSF website says he's Bolivian. Bruno18 16:19, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

text: Luizão scored 29 goals according to CONMEBOL's Website (click for link). However, with the inclusion of Luizão to the table this no longer represents the top 10 all time scorers list. Should we delete the last entries (Acosta, Palhinha, etc.) to make this a top 10 list or leave it like it is now? In my opinion it needs to stay the way it is now. Bruno18 21:44, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: All time

message: This article seems to be going in the wrong direction. The list by year should only include THE topscorer (or whoever else is tied at #1), because that's all that really matter. Officially, the award is not called Golden Boot, and CONMEBOL does not award a Silver or Bronze boot. There is no reason to include them and is statistical overkill that goes against WP:NOTSTATS.

Category talk:Aztec

message: A check of the history of this category shows there's been a few rounds of adding, deleting then re-adding some parent categories. IMO there is a need to have this category parented to both :Category:Pre-Hispanic cultures of Mexico and :Category:Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, and not just one or the other. There are parts of 'Mexico' which are not included in the definition of 'Mesoamerica', and similarly 'Mesoamerica' includes other regions which are not in 'Mexico'. The Aztec civilization is of significance to both approaches, and one is not a "redundant supercat" of the other.
The other current parent category :Category:Former countries seems not to be an appropriate one. Apart from stretching the meaning of the word 'country', this cat:Aztec is really for a wider range of articles than just those which might possibly correspond to some former state. If there are no objections, it should be removed.--cjllw | TALK 07:27, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

There's considerable complexity involved in building a rail vehicle where the entire floor is lower than the centerline of the wheels, since there cannot be an axle.

message: La Mama Theatre (Melbourne) and La Mama Theatre, formerly two articles on the same topic, have undergone a content merge to the accompanying article's title, with the history of the contributions made under La Mama Theatre remaining under the Rdr. A history merge is called for to consolidate the history of the merged content with that content. That merge interleaves the edits in chronological order, and thus in many cases disguises which material in an edit was added by that edit, since the version the editor worked from is no longer the immediately preceding one in the history.
The following (link-free) copies of the two pre-history-merge histories provide the information needed to reconstruct the actual changes a given editor introduced.
The (typographically) annotated (link-free) copy of the post-history-merge history serves to indicate, via italics on entries derived from one of the two merged pages, which successive pairs of merged history entries correspond to edits of one or the other formerly separate article, and which correspond to no actual edit.--Jerzy•t 07:55, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Hawkman (Carter Hall)

message: The "Following Adventures" of this page is really only relegated to one story arc in the most recent series.  I'd like to slim it down, make it more stream-lined, so it makes mention of some of his other adventures.  I don't think it needs a huge biography of every adventure during Vol. 4, but a brief description of the events in the series seems better than one in-depth description of one story-arc.
Any thoughts?
