Talk:Seattle Repertory Theatre

message: The history section should be in the past, not the present tense. --Lukobe 19:41, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: I've changed the tenses, eliminated most of the repetition and created more consistency but...the article still feels more like a chronology than a real "article". Complete rewrite, anyone?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.179.227.58 (talk) 02:13, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Not Really Perfect

message: From the article as it stands (uncited and I suspect uncitable): "The next year [1963] saw the beginning of the Seattle Repertory Theater ("The Rep"), under the leadership of Bagley Wright." Now, I like and respect Bagley Wright, but I think this overstates his role. It certainly suggests that his involvement was more hands-on than I believe it was. Unless I'm very mistaken, Wright (who was running Physio Control at the time) was the foremost of several prominent citizens who put up the money to start a theater group, so in that sense he was the "leader", but to the best of my knowledge he never played any role in the theater company's artistic decisions, which is usually what "leadership" implies with reference to a theater company. So I will probably rewrite that, unless someone has a citation showing I'm wrong. - Jmabel | Talk 07:16, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bagley Wright's role 

message: I've linked (in the External Links section) an article by Douglas Q. Barnett that might be a good source for some aspects of The Rep, especially the early years. - Jmabel | Talk 06:59, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Alasdair mac Mhaighstir Alasdair

message: There are two such islands in Loch Sheil, Eilean Fhianain, a small island with a burial ground at NM752683 and the larger Eilean Ghleann Fhionainn near the monument at NM904802. The former may well be the intended burial place, but it seems to me unlikely that either of them ever had a school, and certainly not one that required "him to teach at various locations throughout the island." Is there another and larger island of the same name somewhere? Ben MacDui 14:54, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a chapel on one of the Finnan Islands. My guess is that "Finnan Island" was a synecdoche for the parish of that chapel. Maproom (talk) 07:43, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Talk:The Shark Is Still Working

message: Greetings.
I am the author of the Shark is Still Working article page here, as well as the director of THE SHARK IS STILL WORKING. I am the original author of the synopsis from which I drew for the wikipedia article.  My name is Erik Hollander.  I am new to Wikipedia. so I am trying to figure out all the rules as I go.
Thanks.
:Hiya. I've been following this project and will be very happy to help on this page. The trick for a Wikipedia page is independent sources. If you get independent coverage from reliable sources (news sites, etc.), put it on here and we can use them as sources. The JPStalk to me 13:22, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The article has just appeared, and the first contributor is new to Wikipedia. I plan to have a stab at this, with a knowledge of Wikipedia's conventions. A simple google search  is promising. I have added an independent reliable source. The JPStalk to me 13:31, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Weasel words and peacock terms?

message: This article needs substantial work to flesh it out as this is one of the most important Irish poets.
Reading it Im not that sure that the essence of the man or poet can be felt.
eg Influence on later poets such as Seamus Heeney etc
fair use quotes should be added to illustrate the quality of his work.
A list of  biographies and critiques needs to be added.
Citations need to be added.
The Patrick Kavanagh Poetry award needs its own article.
ISBN numbers need to be added to publications. 
The Language section needs to be simplified and compacted as it seems ludicrous to describe his simple style in this over academic mannerr. Encylopedias are for everyman not rarified Academia.

Maybe I even put that there, but in online readings since (and quite a while ago) I came across history of coal mining in BC.  Nicola, British Columbia was one of the first coal mines in the Interior and was the object of teh railway's immediate attention; also other railways, most of which were gobbled up fairly quickly.  It happened to be convenient for the Douglas Lake Ranch that a rail line came close to their HQ; the Gang Ranch wasn't so lucky needless to say.
