Talk:Laufakana'a

message: Regarding the article Laufakanaa - which you say might be nonsense. How about adding a comment as to why you think so on the talk page. We had major problems with other Māori and Polynesian articles started by TUF-KAT in 2002, which were copied out of the Encyclopedia Mythica. When we could trace a valid source, often there was only a shred of truth to the articles. For an example see Auraka which, if you look at the earliest versions, is said to be ""the Polynesian god of death" but which turned out to be the name of a burial cave on Mangaia in the Cook Islands. Maybe Laufakanaa should be nominated for deletion if you think there is just cause? Kahuroa 10:10, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Laufakanaa

message: The Tongan god of the underworld (Pulotu) is Hikule'o. Change the article name? Laufakanaa is doesn't make sense as a Tongan word, at least to my mediocre Tongan and my Tongan dictionary. Zora 10:22, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I am not saying they are reliable - far from it, I agree they do look dubious  - I just thought they may give someone with local knowledge like yourself clues to finding out what the real story is.  Kahuroa 00:24, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Kinderszenen

message: Would it be jejune to mention the familiar transcription of Träumerei for solo cello? --Wetman 10:21, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I wouldn't call it jejune, but we really need a thorough list of all well-known transcriptions.  Perhaps we should also mention that it was one of Vladimir Horowitz's favourite encore pieces.  JackofOz 23:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Träumerei

message: I've come to see if I can add something to this article but am puzzled to see it tagged for not having references. The article consists of a mere listing of the names of the pieces in a small collection of works for piano. What references are required? Deschreiber 14:50, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure it adds anything.  I thought of deleting it, but left it for now.  Any thoughts? DJRafe (talk) 19:16, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Section on movie refs

message: The title 'Kinderszenen' doesn't actually mean 'Scenes of/from childhood' or 'Childhood scenes'. It means 'Children's scenes'. There is a difference as 'childhood' is a different idea from 'children'. I'm not sure one should accept a common but inaccurate translation! 
There is also no reason to state that Schumann intended the pieces as 'reminiscence', unless there is clear evidence. Children's scenes occur in the present as well as the past!
--Tdent (talk) 23:36, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  'Childhood' or 'Children'? 

message: The piece of music used throughout Song of Love is Schumann's setting of an untitled Rückert poem, which Schumann dubbed Widmung (Dedication). The song is the first of 26 in the collection Myrten (Myrtles), which Schumann wrote as a wedding gift. (In Germany, myrtles are a symbol of married love.) In the context of the story, it would be difficult to make a better choice, especially as it's one of the most-popular Lieder ever written. (There are plenty of YouTube videos butchering it. I even sing it myself, when I'm in the mood.)
I could strip the reference from the article, but I'd prefer that the author correct it. WilliamSommerwerck (talk) 19:31, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: That reference was added over four years ago by User:Deschreiber who wasn't the "creator" of the article.  This particular wikipedia article doesn't have a single "author" so I would go ahead and make the change yourself.  Clara (Hepburn) does play Traumerei near the beginning of the movie  but I haven't seen the whole movie so I don't know if its the "song of love" or not.DavidRF (talk) 16:33, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Control variable

message: These three rather different terms are uncomfortable together in one article. They're too long to be different senses in a dictionary definition (where controlled variable would be a "see also"), and too short to be standalone articles. 
* The experimental sense is covered in Dependent_and_independent_variables#Other_variables.
* The programming sense is covered in Control_flow and in various articles on computer programming and programming languages.
* The control-theory sense is covered in Control theory and Perceptual control theory.
I have brought out the relationship of these three terms, but I don't know if we can find an independent RS doing that. The article probably should be deleted.Bn (talk) 16:50, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

message: "In a state ruled by atheists, Tamil Brahmins have been facing an uphill task of retaining their traditional values."

Talk:Dugald Drummond

message: I think it would be more useful to list the locomotive classes in the chronological order of their appearance. Alphabetical order, as it appears to be makes it a meaningless jumble because the class numbers only referred to works lists.  Also  NB and Caledonian designs should be added to this list. This article is about Dugald Drummond, not LSWR locomotives. What about his general locomotive policy? What about Stroudley influence?--John of Paris (talk) 12:20, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:South Carolina Canal and Railroad Company

message: Hi -- great to see an article on SCCRR. I am interested in why you wrote it "may" have been the longest in the world in 1833 -- I didn't want to edit in case you had better information. Donald Grinde writes that “When complete the Charleston to Hamburg line was the longest railroad in the world under one management." (“Building the South Carolina Railroad.” South Carolina Historical Magazine 77 (April 1976): 92). I am not sure why he put the "one management" qualifer in there. The Manchester and Liverpool would not have been anywhere close to that mileage in 1833. I can't think of any other competitors in the states, either, although the B&O would have overtaken it within a decade. Thanks. Radar1 16:47, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rail Road 

message: I'm going to suggest that the article "South Carolina Railroad" be merged into "South Carolina Canal and Railroad Company".  The RR Co. article begins by saying that RR Co. was a "direct successor" to Canal & RR Co., suggesting that at no time would these have been separate entities.  Furthermore, the RR Co. article discusses things such as the "incline plane at Aiken" which make no sense without the context set by the history of Canal & RR Co.  It would make more sense to me to present this a one history, with it stated up front that a 1843 reorganization and acquisition resulted in a name change.  I'm putting a copy of this suggestion on talk for the other article as well. -- Bdentremont (talk) 15:34, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Especially in the early days, railroads do not seem to have stuck with one version of "Rail Road" vs. "Railroad".

thread_title:  Malan 

message: The statement that "The National Party ensured that the memory of the Springbok Legion, Torch Commando and of Sailor Malan was purged from history because there was a fear that young Afrikaners in particular might want to emulate Malan' is POV, unverifiable, and most certainly false. I have read a number of accounts of Sailor Malan in apartheid era South African military magazines.

Talk:Pam Iorio

message: removed to talk page the following paragraph
"Iorio's niece Jessica Sierra, was often publicly linked with the Mayor when she was a contestant on American Idol, and doing quite well.  Since Jessica has started to experience some minor law enforcement trouble there have been public denials of the relationship from the Mayor's office."
However, if you look at the original St. Petersburg times article, it is NOT
Pam Iorio who made the original claim to be the mayor of the neice.  
Verbatim copy of the quote below from the St Petersburg times article.
"The show's publicists have described Sierra as a "niece" of Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio, but apparently the relationship is somewhat more complicated than that. Her stepmother is the daughter of Iorio's sister-in-law."
It is obviously the publicists who have claimed the connection. Therefore, this does
NOT belong in the article itself.Bayspatriot (talk) 03:12, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Removed this bit, posted by Timmyfitz161 on Nov 13, 2008: 
"She however, has been controversial, in the NFL world. She has been shown to make up or embellish stories on at least two different occasions.

In both occasions she has quoted them only to have them and their teammates vehemently deny her stories the next day in the press."
