message: There is no article on the Tsawwassen Indian Reserve as such, which might belong here, even though it's outside municipal jurisdition.  I took out the First Nations government links because govenrments are not neighbourhoods, and the Musqueam do not even ahve reserves in Delta, much less any community; if they were to be included so should the Kwantlen, Lummi, and Katzie, even the Tsartlip and Clallam, all of whom were active on the South Arm and this is also likely true of the Semiahmoo and Nooksack.  There are North Delta neighbourhoods yet to be article'd up anyway.  In general FNs should not be categorized within municipalities; they are not part of them and do not themselves associate with the municipality around them, in constitution/legality terms, though some work with municipalities (but not always....).Skookum1 (talk) 23:49, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Why is this article only hyperfocused on the AOL deal? It seems to be biased towards the removal of a rival and the AOL deal, but nothing about his tenures at Time and HBO (he was responsible for the national launch of the network and led the channel for nearly 20 years), his ascension to the Time Inc. board of directors, and his roles at Time Warner, including some of the decisions he was a part of, including the company's acquisition of Turner Broadcasting (probably one of the most successful business mergers of all time and one that set up the foundation of the company now known as Warner Bros Discovery to this day). It seems that this article just wants to paint Gerald Levin as some incompetent boor when the opposite is true. Nemalki (talk) 17:06, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Primordial Soup (board game)

message: Please note that this section was intentionally written without naming any game specifics, such as "Each amoeba eats 3 food cubes per turn and excrements 2 and decomposes after death into 8 in 4 player game". It should give a good impression of the game, its challanges and its flavour. The reason being that I think that a Wikipedia article should be able to convey the general idea to non-gamers. Any boardgamer will look up games on boardgamegeek.com anyway, rather than Wikipedia. Please keep that in mind when improving this article. Keep it civil for non-gamers.

I've removed the 2006 Nobel reference from Gerald Murnane's page as he didn't win and the nomination was not "official". Jenny Sinclair 11:31, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The removed text read: In October, 2006 it was reported that British  bookmaker Ladbrokes had Murnane at 33/1 for winning the 2006 Nobel Prize for Literature. and cited a news article from The Age.  I agree that the details of the odds are hardly now relevant, however it is possibly of lasting historical interest that in 2006 Murnane was regarded highly enough to be seen as a 'contender'.  I'd argue for reinstating a trimmed down version of the text. Stumps 11:41, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

text: Yeah, I was responding to the citation needed, but only now realise that the prize has already been given.  I agree though, it makes Murnane more notable than other current writers, that he was in the running for it, and so we should include this in the article.  It was also notable enough for the Age to run a story on it.  Brendanfox 13:02, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Just a warning that under WP:BLP, we need to be extremely careful not to editorialize, or to overstep the bounds of what can be properly attributed to reliable sources. By and large, the only credible allegation that's been made against Tremblay himself in the matter is that he was (willfully or otherwise) blind to corruption issues taking place under him -- there has been no credible allegation made to date that he actually had direct involvement in any of it. Anything that extends into editorializing, or that makes improperly sourced assertions about his involvement in the scandal, will be removed from the article again.

message: Valenciano removed the category "Australian Roman Catholics" on the ground that simply being catholic is not enough for inclusion.  I can understand that but have restored the category, with a promise of new info.  I have now added a ref discussing Brennan's catholic background and commitment to social justice.  That does not wholly address Valenciano's point. However, I am bearing in mind the extent to which Brennan's catholic commitment to social justice (one way of being catholic and common in Australia) shows in some of his judgments - particularly Mabo - although, in giving judgment, he could not identify his views as catholic.  This may seem a bit OR for non-Australians, but I think that within Australia it is akin to taking "judicial notice".

Talk:Gérard Latortue

message: To say that Latortue's government was "beset by violence" is highly disingenuous when the public record clearly shows that Latortue's unelected government, having been installed by a combination of paramilitary and foreign forces, was the primary contributor *to* the violence. 
Quote from article:
"Furthermore, his Government was beset with opposition from the Fanmi Lavalas political party; an ongoing flight of foreign capital and human resources (especially by the country's economic elite, which, through the Group of 184, had steadfastly supported the coup against Aristide and had contributed a significant amount of personnel to the subsequent government); and violence by and between gangs, rebels, and militants (especially in Port-au-Prince and its metropolitan area), many of whom are either former members of the Haitian Armed Forces (disbanded by Aristide) or street gang supporters of the Aristide government "Chimere"."
This leaves the impression that his government was "beset by violence" coming from outside forces: either ex-army/ex-death-squad paramilitaries who are portrayed by the article as outside of the government (rather than closely backed by his government, as was the case), or "street gang supporters of the Aristide government" whose role in the violence was mostly self-defensive anyhow (and at least pales in comparison to the scale of government violence). Under Latortue there were thousands killed and tortured by paramilitaries who worked directly with Latortue's government. I'm going to build up a more accurate picture of all this -- Peter Hallward's book, "Damming the Flood," is just one that is thick with citations on this subject -- and edit the article to be more straight forward. As is, the article is akin to the media attitude in the 80s of El Salvador where it was claimed that death squads were unconnected to the government, which (as in Haiti under Latortue) was very obviously not the case. 173.3.41.6 (talk) 02:09, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
