message: Removed due to WP:BLP concerns.  Feel free to re-add if there are reliable sources:
:Within the landmine movement, Williams is a controversial figure. Many believe she was inappropriately awarded the Nobel and it should have been awarded to her boss at the time, Bobby Mueller of the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation. She has also drawn criticism for her brash style which is seen by many as counter productive, such as calling President Clinton a "weenie" while discussing his reluctance to sign off on the Ottawa treaty.

Talk:Against the Wind (miniseries)

message: Anyone know how to find out the syndication history? I was living in Chi. in 1980-1981 and watched the entire series on Channel 32, WFLD-TV. I suppose it's run in other markets as well... Ellsworth 20:17, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I remember the miniseries - it had a wide viewership in the Nordic countries too - and last week I picked up Robert Hughes' acclaimed book, The Fatal Shore (1986) at a thrift shop, an in-depth look at the penal colony era of early Australia and the lifelong exile system. Hughes explains in the preface that he spent a decade researching and writing the book and that he felt compelled to do it because this element in Australian history had mostly been pushed aside or swept under the rug even into the 1960s/70s, and it needed to be addressed. 
He doesn't mention the TV series in his book, of course, but arriving in 1978 I figure it must have had a substantial impact both in Australia and abroad in making this brutal period more widely known and appreciated. The article here notes that it ushered in an age of major Aussie tv miniseries, but doesn't bring out how it changed people's view of colonial Australian history. There had been nothing like it on Australian TV before, certainly not on this scale and scope, and it seems likely that it had the same kind of "spotlight impact" as the Holocaust miniseries had to popular awareness of the Nazi persecutions, around the same time. This kind of influence should be looked into and addressed in the article.188.150.64.57 (talk) 15:28, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Edward Victor Appleton

message: Someone had added an unsourced statement that Edward Victor Appleton was the "likely" source of the house name Victor Appleton, used for the Tom Swift children's books. This seems unlikely, since the first "Victor Appleton" book was published in 1910, when the real-life Appleton was only 18 years old and not yet a well-known figure. The name seems be sheer coincidence as far as I can tell, so I have removed the reference. Please do not re-add it unless you can document a connection between the two.

Talk:Nikolay Basov

message: I revertid the editor who removed the books section because ISBNs seem to be valid and referencing real published books, but I have some afterthoughts. It looks like the book references were inserted in the article as part of an apparent V. Stefan self-promotion campaign. There's little doubt that the books actually exist and have N. Basov's name on the cover. However, could somebody verify that N. Basov did in fact edited any of these books?..  Azov 09:51, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Aage Bohr

message: At least we could get the correct pronounciation of this living subject's name!  A biography of Oppenheimer I just read (American Prometheus) says Aage's first name is pronouced "Aw-ah". So the g would be as in the Spanish Agua. And that would (if I can figure it out) more or less agree with the IPA given in this Wiki. Except that several encyclopedia articles I can find on the net give the pronounciation of Aage Bohr's given name as "Ah-gah" with a hard g.  So, is the g sounded, or not? Inquiring minds want to know! SBHarris 06:13, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The g is not hard. I am not an expert on phonetics, but my best explanation of the pronounciation is this: The 'e' is silent, and the 'g' is a semivowel and sounds like 'w' in English 'cow' except that it forms a separate syllable, so your Oppenheimer-biography has it about right. The pronounciation with a hard g seems more Swedish than Danish to me. Hemmingsen 17:59, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. I'll go ahead and add that to the bio until I hear differently. BTW, there's such rich irony of history here. Neils Bohr did his Ph.D. on oscillations in liquid drops, then became famous for a semi-quantum model of the atom that wiped out the droplet-y plum pudding models. Then along come the next generation and describe the nuclear potential as a sort of short range force which results in something like a surface tension, and now again we're back to oscillating liquid drops. Pushed by Bohr's son and (among others) a native American named "Rainwater." If you wrote this as fiction, they'll call it transparent hack. SBHarris 00:13, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Shopping for Love

message: A debate has arisen in the Criticism section of SFL.
It seems phrases such as "scolded by Critics and viewers alike", "a half hour advertisement" and "cheap and tacky" are not from a neutral point of view.
The first phrase "scolded by Critics and viewers alike" is not sourced or attributed in any way. This is an opinion, not a fact. Yet it is stated as fact. 
-----
Wikipedia's own discussion on Neutral Point of View states:
"...we accept all the significant viewpoints on an issue. Instead of simply stating one perspective, we try to present all relevant viewpoints without judging which is correct. 
It's OK to state opinions in articles, but they must be presented as opinions, not as fact. Also, it's a good idea to attribute these opinions, for example "Supporters of this say that..." or "Notable commentator X believes that..."
-----
By adding ratings information, i LOVE SEXY LONG TIME
- that SFL did indeed win its timeslot across Australia - helps balances the arguement. Deleting this information makes it one sided.
Rather than deleting or reverting the text, add to it - keeping both sides of view.

message: Although it was obviously not Leyland's intention at the time the chassis codes were created, the two batches of PD2/11s supplied to Leeds Corporation in 1955 (comprising the entire production of this model) were fitted with Pneumocyclic gearboxes.
