Talk:Policosanol

message: I put a citeneeded tag on the part of the article which states that many of the positive papers are tied to a sugar-cane pushing group.

thread_title: NPOV NEEDED

message: The article is indeed a mess, also the citations are largely nonsense if you actually check them. Several are all published by the same group, and one of the ones cited as being in support of the drug working actually says that it doesn't. I'll work my way through it all later if I can be bothered. Certainly only the Cuban studies show that it works. Regardless of where their funding comes from (I'll look into it), it's not good practise to claim a drug works based on studies from only one research team, especially when as far as I can tell the only external studies conducted on it found no evidence that it worked.

If someone can find an independent trial not associated with the Cuban government (which manufactures and markets the drug), that genuinely supports Policosanol having a clinical effect, feel free to add it. Layscience (talk) 16:56, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Israel attacked Egypt before they reached the bridge and thus still in Gaza (as of by the division plan of -47):
:In May, 1948, Israel dispatched four Messerschmidt airplanes to stop the advance of the Egyptians, who had almost reached Ashdod and were proceeding towards Tel Aviv. Two of the Israeli planes were piloted by foreigners and two by natives of Palestine. Ezer Weizman was one of the latter. Our "fleet" won that battle, and there is a bridge at the farthest point of the Egyptian advance, dubbed "Ad Halom" - which means "Till Here."
http://www.uhcg.org/news/Arutz-7-News.html 
:Israeli agents negotiated the purchase of Avia S-199’s from the Czechoslovakian government in defiance of an arms embargo that Israel faced at this time. Twenty-five aircraft were obtained, and all but two were eventually delivered. The first examples arrived on May 20, 1948, six days after Israel’s declaration of independence, and five days after the commencement of hostilities by Egypt. They were assembled and sent into combat for the first time on May 29th, attacking the Egyptian Army between Isdud and the current Ad Halom Bridge, south of Tel Aviv.

Talk:Scuba

message: As this is a disambiguation page, I've removed the information about the acronym S.C.U.B.A. because it's already on the Scuba diving page. Otherwise we could end up with a circular path back to the disambiguation page.
Disambiguation pages are (I understand) supposed to be just a list of different meanings under the page heading with links to specific pages, rather than holding the information themselves.
Personally I'd like to have seen the SCUBA page as the main page for Scuba diving, but there is another meaning of SCUBA unrelated to Scuba diving, so the disambiguation page makes more sense as it is. Sound reasonable? --Andy Wade 09:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: It seems fairly obvious that scuba diving is the primary meaning of the term; scuba set is an instrument used in scuba diving, not an unrelated term; and the SCUBA acronym for the telescope instrument is, besides being derivative, a distinctly secondary and uncommon usage.

Talk:Acanthus (ornament)

message: Under the external links, I think that http://www.acanth.com/gallery/acanthus03.php is a better example for this article (the architectural aspects of acanthus ornamentation) than http://www.acanth.com/gallery/acanthus02.php (it focuses on the acanthus more as a decoration. I am the page owner, so I don't want to make the call on this.
Really, it seems to me that there should almost be two wiki pages or at least two sections in this page. Acanthus leaves are used extensively both in architectural and in decorative ways. The architectural way is most commonly associated with the Corinthian style of architecture, but it is used in more ways than just capping a column. The leaves also decorate all sorts of non-architectural items, too. That's why I have two pages (three if you count photos of the plant itself) dedicated to the acanthus.
On the other hand, these pages are already considered stubs. Maybe instead of breaking the pages apart more, it would be better to recombine the separate parts into a larger page. I'm not sure on the proper Wiki way of organizing things. It seems that articles that are too long often get cut into smaller pieces, and then the Wiki complains that there is not enough information. That seems to be the case here.

message: On 22 July 2022, a large section of this article, some 17,397 bytes, was removed from this article along with the subheading "List of some public inquiries in the UK", references and notes. The text was removed by User:DeFacto who gave the following reasons in the edit summary: "per WP:UNDUE in this general and global context article, and unsourced as a notable list anyway." The deleted section included a lengthy list of inquiries within the UK. A quick count of the editing history suggests that well over 30 different editors have contributed to the material. Another concern is that this list may contain the sole or minimal mention of certain inquiries on the entirety of the English Wikipedia, so removing the list outright, could serve to disappear or reduce any encyclopaedic reference to these inquiries. So rather than reverting the edit, I have taken the opportunity to branch off the material that related to the United Kingdom into its own dedicated article Public inquiries in the United Kingdom where the global context should no longer be a concern. The issue of the list being "unsourced as a notable list" will have to be dealt with separately as we try to tighten up the referencing. SpookiePuppy (talk) 20:00, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
