Second sentence states they were built in response to what the Japanese were building "at the time", but no years are mentioned until a full paragraph later, and no direct explicit mention either of World War II, Pacific War, etc. "Building in response to the Japanese" implies the timing quite strongly, as does the style & quality of the photo, but this sort of thing needs to be explicit.

message: If possible, I would like to see the section on the aborted follow-up album expanded. To my mind, it's surprising that, given the success of the first album, no follow-up album was released. "One-hit wonders" are hardly a new phenomenon, but usually there is at least an attempt to repeat the success. While Wikipedia is about facts, not narrative per se, it seems like there must be more of a story there. --GentlemanGhost (converse) 19:46, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Talk:James Bradley

message: Superslum read the following words in the New International Encyclopedia.  
:Aberration was discovered by James Bradley in 1725.  Hooke had reported the discovery of large parallax in the case of the star γ Draconis, and accordingly, in 1725, Bradley undertook a series of measurements on the star with a zenith sector for the purpose of verifying Hooke's observation.  He found that the latitude of the star underwent small periodic variations during the course of the year, and, moreover, that the displacement was greatest when the parallactic displacement should have been zero.  He therefore abandoned all attempts to explain the phenomenon as due to parallax, although its annual recurrence led him to infer that it was in some way connected the motion of the earth about the sun.  It is said that the true explanation was suggested to him in 1728 while sailing on the Thames.  He observed that the wind seemed to shift whenever the boat was put about, and was told, on questioning the boatman, that the direction of the wind vane at the head of the mast was due to the motion of the boat as well as to the direction of the wind.  This gave him the desired clue, and shortly after, in 1729, he announced his discovery to the Royal Society.

Talk:Scooby-Doo! Pirates Ahoy!

message: I was watching this movie on Cartoon Network and at the end of the movie, I saw the Hanna-Barbera logo. It was the one that was used in the late 1960s through the early 1970s (except without that Taft division notice). Why did the movie use that logo when it was Warner Bros. Animation that animated the movie? Was it to honor Scooby-Doo, Where are You! (the first in twelve animated series that were about Scooby-Doo) and Hanna-Barbera (the studio that created Scooby-Doo in the first place)?

Dith Pran is quoted on Loung Ung's website: "Loung has written an eloquent and powerful narrative as a young witness to the Khmer Rouge atrocities. This is an important story that will have a dramatic impact on today’s readers and inform generations to come."  The book he is referring to is First They Killed My Father.
#This looks like trivia and is even labeled as trivia. Something purporting to be an encyclopedia does not need trivia.

Talk:Murder of Peter Porco

message: Before I make my comments, let me say that the idea that this article should be deleted is nonsense.  The event in itself is well known, and for that reason alone there should be an article about it.  The fact that the murderer and/or his victims were not well known is irrelevant.  The same set of circumstances existed for the Lizzie Borden murders, and yet that murder is very noteworthy.  The outrageous circumstances of a crime are what make a crime noteworthy.  (Why are there so many editors on Wikipedia who just want to delete things?)
The article doesn't detail the actual murder.  It doesn't say which end of the axe was used, or which victim was attacked first.  The article just assumes that the reader will figure it out.  Of course, many details may not be known; but whatever details are known (or surmised) should be reported.  The murder is, after all, what the title says the article is about.
