Talk:Cryptocracy

message: Khmer Rouge's rule can be a real life of Cryptocracy.
For the first two years of Khmer Rouge regime, most Cambodians had no idea who was running the country. The Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK), the political movement behind the Khmer Rouge, believed that secrecy was one of the best tools for controlling the population. The Cambodian people didn't even know the CPK existed. All they were told was that the country was now run by Angka.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Srinivasasha (talk • contribs) 18:49, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:A Scots Quair

message: Possibly a collection of Scottish poems used in Scottish schools around the 1950's, included 'Morte d'Arthur' by Tennyson.
What are you on about? PatGallacher 22:54, 2005 August 25 (UTC)
The template describes this trilogy as historical fiction.  This is dubious.  Although the first work, Sunset Song, contains a prologue which starts in the the 12th century, the main body starts within 30 years of the time it was written, and some of the action in the trilogy is even more recent, virtuall contemporary.

Talk:Timeline of Aesthetic Realism

message: What conceivable importance to the history of AR does the "Konica Pocket Handbook" have? It sounds like we're addig any book by an AR student that acknowledges AR. WE should restirct this timeline to events which were important to AR. -Willmcw 20:33, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
:I saw the book, a few years back, and as I recall it related various issues of photographic technique to the Siegel Theory of Opposites.  Photography is not my field--music is--so I don't have a copy of the book, so I can't immediately quote the relevant passages.  But I remember the relation being made between the philosophic ideas of Eli Siegel, and "down-to-earth" practical matters a working photographer would face.
:I'm sure there'll be photographers out there who could add to this, and quote directly from the book.   But since the issue of the relevance of this book came up, I thought I ought to comment on it.  I hope the comments are useful.  [egmusic, Nov. 6, 2005]

thread_title: Random books

message: I thought I wrote up my edits when I did them in January, but I just noticed they're not here.  Anyway, I removed several things from the article that aren't really related to Aesthetic Realism.  The AR people want to trumpet every accolade ever received by one of their members, but that's just not really related to AR itself.  I was rather conservative in my pruning -- lots more should be removed, but given my status as this group's most visible critic I felt some restraint was in order.  I'll leave further editing to other editors. Likewise, if independent editors feel that I've gone too far, they're welcome to reinstate the bits I deleted. -MichaelBluejay (talk) 06:01, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

message: This article has been almost totally unsourced since 2007. While I am personally fond of referring to simple chronologies to supplement complicated histories, timelines are not typical on Wikipedia, and this is not a complicated history. I suggest that we should move any materials which can be sourced to the AR article or Siegel bio and delete the rest.

Talk:Thousand Oaks, California

message: I'm wondering why Martin Lawrence, Will Smith, and Jada Pinckett Smith are all refered to as "African-American" actors instead of just actors.  The page doesn't call out the ethnicity of anyone else on the page, and to do so in these few cases just seems rather gratitous.  IvyMike 03:21, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: To call them "African American" actors or "Popular African-American" actors is trying to pinpoint the city has minority residents, but not a good way to represent that. Thousand Oaks is 80 percent white alike nearby Simi Valley was portrayed a bastion of conservative suburban white Americans voting in the Republican party. In relation to the issue, I do know Thousand Oaks and nearby unincorporated Oak Park have one of the highest Jewish American populations per capita in the country. 71.102.13.174 (talk) 01:21, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

:A transparently crude insertion of an irrelevant slavery-mention (as on so many other wiki pages), to justify inclusion in the 'American slave owners' category. Maryland was a slave state, so naturally a long-established plantation would have used slaves.

Any other newspaper or magazine with a per-issue circulation of 11,000 would be allowed an article, so I don't see why student newspapers should be held to a different standard.

The sentence could be tweaked to limit itself to what we can glean from the source, but I think it appropriate in an encyclopedic article.  To err on the side of extreme caution, "While working at Inner City Games, his public biography from 2005 claimed that he was married to Melissa Reis Adkison."

We have had lots of rain and my yard does tend to have standing water at times when the rain is very heavy; also, the soil is mostly clay and some other DIRT!  I had to mix some peat moss in but I don't think it was enough!  The poor things are blooming; however, the heat (no shade as yet), the rain, and the soil have all added to there stunted growth (I'm certain)!  I am not a GARDENER, I simply LOVE flowers and gardens so my hobby is planting!  These poor struggling plants have managed to bloom; however, the PEST of recent have managed to eat all of the leaves and they are now just stalks!!!!!!!!  I'm crazy with anger and don't know what in the world to do!!!  I have tried siven (? spelling) and another spray on (attach the bottle to end of hose type) pesticide was used but, nothing is working!!!  PLEASE HELP!  I can't describe them cuz I never see them; apparently, they feed at night!?!!?!
Thanks.......Cheryl michaudc@itc-2.com
:That's kind of a surprise, they being pretty toxic... If all the leaves are eaten all I can think of are deer or something. Or else the neighborhood teenagers who are smoking them.... I find these to be enormously vigorous plants. Mine are growing out of a hairline crack between two driveways, up the side of a chainlink fence, with no maintenance or agriculture, even watering, on my part; they are definitely a hot weather plant, in warm climates they are perennial, but in the north (I live in CT) they die out every winter. Being that my guys are rooted under the driveway, I can't tell whether they are the same plants coming back each year or new ones reseeding in the crack. Anyway, they love the hot weather, don't bloom until August up here, and don't  mind the drought. Sorry I can't figure out who would eat the leaves, though. Gzuckier 15:04, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
