Talk:High commissioner

message: Are High Commissioners appointed to/from Commonwealth republics which don't have the Queen as head of state? Ddye 03:21, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Nevermind, I answered my own question and clarified it in the article, though if someone has more insight into why they do in fact still appoint commissioners rather than ambassadors, they should definitely add it. Ddye 03:26, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Commonwealth republics

message: Firstly, it is a derivation from the days of the British Empire when High Commissioners were appointed to administer the British protectorates, especially Basutoland, Bechuanaland & Swaziland
Secondly, it indicates membership of the British Nations.
In the event that Ireland returns to the British Commonwealth, the
Irish Embassy in Great Britain would be retitled as the Irish High Commission in Great Britain. - (Aidan Work 01:55, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Reasons why they are titled as High Commissioners rather than as Ambassadors.

message: This article is clearly too long and full of unnecessary biographical information. These should if possible be placed in sub-pages, e.g. List of High Commissioners of Palestine. I also suggest that officials not actually known as High Commissioner, but Haut Commissaire, etc. should be dealt with more briefly in this article and in more depth in their own article, such as Haut commissaire. Andrew Yong 15:46, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Pruning

message: I suggest that the section on High Commissioners within the Commonwealth of Nations, and possibly going back to the British Empire, be split to form a separate article. This would separate what are different positions (for practical purposes, High Commissioners are ambassadors), and would allow a more direct link for all articles related to modern High Commissioners from Commonwealth members. I haven't thought of an entirely appropriate name, but something along the lines of 'High Commissioner (Commonwealth)' would suffice. Bastin 17:54, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that the British Commonwealth & Empire section should be split off. Andrew Yong 16:00, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Split section

message: It's probably worth a mention on this page the usage of "High Commissioner" with regard to the Eire. Ireland had a High Commissioner in Canada, and accepted a High Commissioner from Australia, but did when it came to Britain the title "British Representative" was used, and Ireland's man in Australia was "Minister Plenipotentiary Representative of Ireland in Australia" http://www.psa.ac.uk/publications/psd/1998/lloyd1.htm 08:09, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Frontside jump

message: This makes no sense. It contains false statements (a fakie ollie and a nollie are not the same) and its title makes no sense with respect to its contents, which seems to relate to the nollie. In addition, in skateboarding there is nothing known as a "frontside jump". There are such tricks as the frontside air and the frontside ollie, but no "frontside jump", and these do not directly relate to the description of the nollie in this article.
*Seconded. Sounds like they're trying to describe a nollie. --Jack (Cuervo) 15:50, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Jungle music

message: To anyone watching this talk page, I've moved old discussions to the subpage Archive 1, to prevent a cluttered talk page, per an EFFP request. EggRoll97 (talk)  07:57, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Archived old discussions

message: Have commenced an entire re-write of this article, taking on board some of the comments made on the talk page previously, and as the article had become disjointed and confused. This hopefully attempts to keep it concise, using existing Reynolds refs plus both Belle-Fortune and James - the three most key texts relating to jungle.
Have also tried to incorporate some sense of how the sound developed from breakbeat hardcore, darkcore, and that phase of jungle techno and hardcore jungle, include reference to the DJs, radio stations, artists and big tracks. 
Some paragraphs exist from the previous article which need work - the subsection 'Crossover with drum and bass' is unsatisfactory, and could do with some references/commentary on the relationship and development between jungle/d'n'b - where in some cases they are interchangeable, but in others clearly whole new subgenres of drum and bass and the directions that Goldie, Ed Rush, Trace, Doc Scott, Bukem, Rider, Optical, etc. went in post 94- created a distinct space between what is considered jungle and what is drum and bass. 77.86.103.78 (talk) 16:06, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed some supposedly notable example tracks that were from artists without Wikipedia pages. Binksternet (talk) 19:07, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  Fair enough, but they are notable within the genre. Notability in terms of Wikipedia (especially the criteria for getting new articles accepted and reliance on particularly mainstream media/press as sources) is always going to mean that any music/cultural scenes outside of the/less mainstream are going to be negatively impacted by that. I personally believe that makes articles all the poorer for it. 77.86.103.78 (talk) 19:12, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Re-write

message: Can i, or someone else update this section to include references to more modern jungle music? The most recent example of jungle music on this page is Chase And Status "rtn 2 jngl" or whatever, which while a fine album, is just that! one album. it would be good to include references to contemporary artists working in the style like tim reaper, coco bryce, labels like western lore and rupture london, that one lobster theremin offshoot (i forget the name), etc, regardless of whether or not they have wikipedia pages already.

Talk:Mikhail Loris-Melikov

message: The end of the second paragraph of Early work is out of order. The paragraph lists two TV series, then jumps to list later movies out of the non-chronological order in the section.

Talk:History of Åland

message: I heard there was a witch trial on Åland in 1665-68, where six people was killed. It would be interesting to read about! Perhaps it should be mentioned. --85.226.235.208 (talk) 14:46, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That was one of the most famous witch trials in Finland. There is an article on Swedish wiki: :sv:Häxprocessen på Åland. To summarize; an ordinary case of magic against the fortune teller Karin Persdotter in 1665, (normally only punished with fines), were developed in to a witch trial by the governor Nils Psilander, who was a stern witch-believer, after Karin had mentioned the Devil in her confession; he made her admit having been to the witches meeting and made her name the other she had seen there. They were arrested, the Devil's mark were found on their bodies and they were tortured to confession. Six women were executed by 1668 before the higher autorities put an end to Psilander--85.226.235.231 (talk) 14:01, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:List of kings of Sparta

message: Shouldn't this be under King of Sparta? Or maybe "List of Kings of Sparta"? Deb 17:10 27 May 2003 (UTC)
What is the "little evidence" regarding "the existence of any kings before the middle of the 6th century BC or so"? The current phrasing suggests that that there were none (or at least fewer than were recorded), and calls the accuracy of these lists into question; is this based upon contradictory records, or merely a lack of archeological evidence? If it's the latter, wouldn't it be more historically accurate to say so? Frisbeehobbit (talk) 01:34, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Yes, more or less. Others may have more information. It's not the worst possible source, but it's not a good one. It's basically self-published ruminations. This is a controversial issue, and without secondary comment that points to the KC study as being particularly significant, I would suggest we try to find a more solid source.

thread_title:  Working paper? 

message: In my opinion, the present text of the section "Causes" is structured in a not entirely appropriate way, simply listing the opinions of various, partly historical, theoretical schools, often without any citation, and ignoring distinguishing between outdated and more current views. It seems more suitable to focus on contemporary thinking on inflation causes in academic circles and central banks, presenting earlier historical debates on the matter in a subsection clearly marked as such. Also, the section lacks citations in many places, and some information, like the subsection "Profiteering under consolidation", seems to receive somewhat undue attention.

message: Camas Washington, zip code 98607, is located about 10 miles east of Vancouver Washington.
The town in on the shores of the Columbia River.  The Lake is north of the town on Ne Everett Street.
The lake is hidden from the road.  Using Google Earth, the Lat. and Long. are 45 Deg 36'03.22 N
122 Deg 24'42.94 W.  As to the mystery of the lake, It is surrounded by trees right up to the shore line.
There are just a few places the one can walk up to the lake.  The main access is on the east side.
There is a what looks like a boat ramp.  You can walk out several feet and then the ramp drops off.
You can see the bottom about 10 feet down.  When you swim out a few feet further there is another drop
off.  You cannot see the bottom anymore.  All the brave souls that I knew swam out 25 feet from shore
then dove as deep as they could no one could see the bottom.  
The lakes surroundings can look foreboding, especially at dusk. A camp fire can give way to chilling
stories of bottomless lakes, mysterious deaths and even Big Foot.  Around one such camp fire beside 
Dead Lake, as it was called when I was 12, A story was told about "Jimmy Rogers", famous
hit "Honey Comb," who's Father had a boating accident on the lake and his body was never found.
In reality, it is just a lake that has no visible fresh water feeding the lake and no water flowing out.
This has give rise to the questions, Why is the lake fresh and clean, Where does the fresh water come from?
The lake is over 100 feet above the town.  Camas is in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains range.
There are many underground rivers.  The Lake is no mystery.  Yet, is sure was fun sitting by the lake
around a camp fire telling ghost stories. There was a terrifying challenge to stay all night by the lake.
It's been done many times. Unless you get intoxicated and try to swim in the dark and drown, the morning comes
with a peaceful, tranquil beauty, unless of course its raining.
