Talk:Southern Tang

message: The box says "Convention for this kingdom only : Nan (Southern) Tang + posthumous names." but then declares that for two sovereigns the posthumous name is not used because it is too tedious and that Li Yu had no posthumous name. What gives? Is the convention ment to be "Temple name" rather than "posthumous name"? Furius (talk) 16:05, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Martinsburg High School

message: This isn't just mindless school bashing - MHS is operating at 120% of constructed capacity with a near 50% staff turnover rate over three years, including the entire guidance and Spanish departments, each in the same year. That isn't in the article, however, because I don't have reputable sources except for my own firsthand knowledge. I'm not quite sure how to do the fancy inline citation thing, but the unqualified teacher data is courtesy of the 2007 WV School report card they are legally required to distribute, and the information on the music budgets and cost of the astroturf are public knowledge and I believe were even in the newspaper. Unfortunately, citing paper sources doesn't help all that much on the internet, but be aware that I do have sources and please respect this by not reverting if you lack firsthand knowledge of the topic. Thank you.

Talk:Economic Stabilization Act of 1970

message: In 1970, Nixon floated the dollar, no longer holding to the fixed $35 gold exchange rate fiction. This had a big impact on oil economy nations which were forced to price in dollars which were quickly devalued. OPEC responded with price hikes to restore real prices. Not sure of Nixon's coupling of his actions floating the dollar and this act, but it is context. Mulp (talk) 00:34, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Connection to floating dollar 

message: I'm a little surprised that there is no mention of the fact that the Internal Revenue Service was given responsibility for receiving and investigating complaints filed by the public against any entity who raised rents, prices, etc.
I remember it well. My first government job was as a Statistical Reports Clerk for the office in Burlington, Vermont. Things happened fast enough that creation of the function brought in a very early and very cumbersome fax machine, the first one any of us had ever seen.
I can't say I know enough of the actual history of the task within the agency to write about it, except that various auditors and investigators were pulled from regular duties to staff the function.

thread_title:  IRS Involvement 

message: I see this fairly often, where a page has a certain page title, but many associated topics redirect to the page as primary reference, which are not prominently treated, and actually pretty hard to tease out. 
In a quick check for inbound redirects, I see these three which are not aliases for the main topic: 
* Economic Stabilization Program
* Pay Board and Price Commission
* U.S. Cost of Living Council
The Pay Board and the Price Commission are like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, conjoined in the mouth, entirely distinct entities on the ground. 
After finding Nixon shock (which I added to the see also section) it's clear that this page does not provide nearly enough context around Bretton Woods and the collapsing system of international currency valuation. 
With probably five distinct definitional jobs to perform, it's not such a great tactic to delegate the lead into "Background" and "Administration" as this page presently does. 
I've made a few changes to make the lead stand better alone in its multiple duties, but I'll leave the rest for the next guy or gal. — MaxEnt 23:05, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Talk:University of Houston/Archive 3

message: Prior to the "University Park" name and perhaps afterwards, many Houstonians referred to the UH campus as "Central Campus" or "University of Houston-Central Campus". I recall that this name was published on class schedules and catalogs when I attended. Should we mention this in the "Campus" section? Postoak (talk) 23:27, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I was referring to the former name in the "Campus" section.

replies: text: I agree.  This isn't appropriate for Wikipedia. Brian Reading (talk) 12:03, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The shocker has its own Wikipedia entry. if you're interested in policing what's appropriate and inappropriate for the documentation of our cultural lexicon, maybe you should start with that entry. But as it's become a nationally controversial trend, I don't see how you can defend it as "inappropriate." In this case, the hand gesture is almost exactly the same. If your school's hand gesture was the middle finger, I think there'd be some mention of its similar appearance to the more common usage of said gesture.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.249.226.23 (talk) 05:06, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not the same hand sign, flat-out.  The index and middle-fingers are specifically separate, which is not the same as the shocker.  The UH Cougar Paw pre-dates the shocker sign, and if you're going to argue about it being similar to another hand sign, you can point to The Pitchfork if anything.

Talk:Hindu Munnani

message: In early 2008, Siva (alias Sivanandam), the General Secretary of Hindu Munnani at Kadayanallur, a neighbouring town of Tenkasi was arrested by Tamil Nadu police in connection with the bomb blast at the RSS office in Tenkasi in the Tirunelveli District of Tamil Nadu. After a thorough investigation, the Tamil Nadu Police had arrested 7 persons belonging to Sangh Parivar outfits. They had confessed that they indulged in this terror act to instigate the local Hindu population against the Muslims.

Talk:La Treille

message: La Treille est un quartier périphérique de Marseille (11e arrondissement), dans les Bouches-du-Rhône en France. Il est centré sur l'ancien village de « La Treille ». Il compte 900 habitants.
Les premiers habitants de ce petit village de style provençal seraient arrivés au XVIIe siècle. L'église de la fin du XIXe siècle, au centre du village, est dédiée a saint Dominique, patron du village.
Ce quartier est célèbre pour avoir été le lieu de villégiature estivale de l'écrivain Marcel Pagnol, qui est d'ailleurs enterré au cimetière du village. C'est aussi là que l'on trouve « La Pascaline », la maison où Marcel Pagnol a commencé à écrire ses souvenirs d'enfance. Les premiers films de Pagnol eurent pour décors le village et pour acteurs ses habitants.
Le village n'a que peu changé depuis ce temps-là. Aux portes de l'église, sur la place centrale, la fontaine attire visiteurs et cinéphiles qui viennent contempler la fontaine de Manon (voir le roman Manon des sources de Pagnol).

Talk:Ontario Hydro

message: I'm curious to know exactly how Ontario Hydro handed over a $38.1 billion debt to us back on April 1st, 1999.  Should it be mentioned in the article?  Somejeff (talk) 00:37, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The provincial Progressive Conservative government of Mike Harris deemed that the debt load of Ontario Hydro (which was being financed at no direct cost to the tax payers from the electricity rates charged to customers) would be a drag on the privatization of the companies and render them unlikely to be sold at an acceptable price. So during the restructuring, the debt was reduced and assumed by a government owned body which was given the right to charge the successor companies a percentage of their revenue (in effect it was an accounting manoeuvre to take the debt off the Ontario Hydro successors' books while still charging the ratepayers for the debt). In the end privatization was abandoned leaving the situation essentially unchanged except Hydro's top management was expanded considerably to cover five successor companies instead on one large conglomerate, e.g. five CEOs instead of one, five CFOs etc. etc. and the new management wasted no time in vastly increasing their salaries compared to the old Hydro. 72.136.174.221 (talk) 01:02, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:England Made Me (novel)

message: A strong, and for its time probably unusual, theme is the suspiciously close bond between the main protagonist, the always ineffectual Anthony, and his twin sister Kate. Her life as secretary and live-in mistress to the crooked tycoon, Krogh, who is no great lover, absorbs her time and energy but leaves her emotionally unfulfilled. By getting Anthony to Stockholm and on Krogh’s payroll, she is looking for a much closer relationship with her charming, unreliable and totally broke brother. His failure to respond, and the unhappy ending, leaves her in an even worse position as Krogh’s artificial empire threatens to unravel.
