message: Wasn't Dr. Rich a member of the RNA Tie Club?   Does anyone know what his contributions to/from the club were?  --159.178.230.36 (talk) 18:42, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: RNA Tie club

message: He was also a member of the board of directors for Profectus BioSciences.
This came to my attention as a sloppy edit, with a red link, missing a final period, and having no citation. 
A very quick Google mostly shows this claim circulating the Wikipedia echo chamber. 
Profectus BioSciences also doesn't seem like much. It does have a Linked In page, but I never visit there because of their Microsoft overlord's mandatory login policy. 
Removed the claim. Feel free to restore with citation. — MaxEnt 02:31, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Dellorusso

message: To "FCDCommunications" - you can't just paste information from his FC Dallas bio into a wikipedia article like that. Firstly, it contravenes copyright. You have to make some effort to change it. Secondly, it looks awful. You have to turn it into properly written prose, in a narrative format, with links to appropriate pages, formatted according to the WP:MOS with correct date formats, no use of leading periods (...), in chronological order. In short, it has to read like a proper article, not just a random set of stats, dates and figures. I suggest you read the numerous guides for editing before you start trying to edit pages here. Thanks. --JonBroxton (talk) 17:11, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I wasn't the person who put the tag on ... but to be fair to the person who did it, the version it was placed on was very POV. Professor Patai herself had done a lot of work on it at that stage, as shown in the history; this was incredibly useful for getting detail, so we owe her thanks, but it did mean that the article was slanted from her perspective.

Talk:John Farson

message: King originally meant for Farson to be a town. Is it possible that it was both a town and a person? This could explain the quote "He did his service to Farson". That may be referring to his service to the town Farson. Could I put this sort of speculation in the article?

Talk:Michael Young (baseball)

message: The fact that Michael Young has played a year and a half without missing a game is not notable enough to warrent inclusion in this encyclopedia.  The wiki page for MLB consecutive games played streaks only displays players with over 700 consectutive games played and this page should also adhear to that number.  4 years (162x4=648) might be a better number, but TONS of players have not missed a game in the last year and a half.

thread_title: Consectuive games played

message: What is the point of updating the stats every single day?  It seems like a waste of time.

Cacophony 15:32, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Daily updates

message: This article is poorly written. The grammatical structure of the paragraph that begins with "During the 2010-11 offseason," is laughable. And what's with that whole bit about YouTube? Sounds like a complete farce, especially when there's no citation given at all.  I'm not sure how one goes about displaying the boxes at the top of the article that say the page needs to be cleaned up to Wikipedia standards, but that sounds appropriate in this situation, in my opinion.

Talk:Chromated copper arsenate

message: From the "Chromated copper arsenate (CCA)" section:
::However some consumer outlets such as Home Depot were still reported to be selling CCA lumber long after the ban went into effect.
This should probably be cited; I've deleted it in the meantime.
From the "Limitations of Human Exposure" section:
::However, in response to the pressures at the time, the wood preservation industry in the USA and Canada volunteered not to use CCA for the treatment of residential timber.
The sentence after this one only supports that the USA is not using the chemical anymore.  A Canadian government source citation should be provided.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Antiartist (talk • contribs) 18:09, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

also, on that note, the primary source tag (BLP primary sources) has been on the page since 2015, but now he's not a living person. should that tag be removed as well since the standards of pages about the deceased are more lenient than BLP? CanoeUnlined (talk) 02:04, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Even sadder is the fact that some people seem to defend this, based on what I gleaned from the edit history. I came here via the Ernie Anastos article and guess what, no mention of his ethnicity.

Talk:Mickey Tettleton

message: Does anyone know? I mean, they're both from Oklahoma and both baseball players and Tettleton was born in 1960, when Mantle was at the peak of his career. I realize it could be a stretch and maybe it's just coincidence but don't forget that Mantle's father was such an avid baseball fan that he named his son after the Philadelphia Athletics catcher Mickey Cochrane, so maybe Tettleton was named after Mantle. I don't know for sure, that's why I'm asking. Ericster08 (talk) 04:08, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

message: I don't understand the text, "But his selective style at the plate, combined with his power hitting mentality also led to Tettleton's 1,307 career strike-outs".  How can his selective style at bat lead to 1300+ strikeouts?  It's sort of like saying a person's selective eating habits led to them weighing 400lbs.
