Talk:Grey December

message: I really don't see that this article is justified as a break away from the main one about the bushfire season.  Neither is of sufficient length to justify two articles.  This is the only place I have heard the term "Grey December" and I note someone else has called for a citation.--Golden Wattle  talk 00:54, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree with all points, merge into 2006-07 Australian bushfire season. -- Longhair\talk 01:08, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds fair enough to me. If some sort of name for these fires does emerge, we can think about splitting them later. Rebecca 04:51, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It think it would be useful to merge the two articles for now, especially as the information is constantly being added to and it's useful to have the information all together during its development phase rather than split the effort. I think a split could still occur down the track, but would be best left until the bushfire season is concluded to see everything in perspective. A separate issue is the name of this article which is creative but appears to be not based on anything that can be referenced to a source in the media or elsewhere.--Melburnian 05:52, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

text: This is an embarrassing neologism - I never one heard the term used in the Australian media during December, did the original author invent it? Also there is no requirement to notify anyone when an article is listed for deletion. --Peta 02:07, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Cybertext

message: I don't have the heart to remove the photo of the phone from the infobox without finding an appropriate replacement, but it is pretty hilarious to illustrate cybertext with a stock image of a phone with a recipe for stew on it! Maybe somebody can find a better illustration? Lijil (talk) 11:21, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Photo of phone with recipe for stew

message: Can somebody help clarify the last sentence, about how an encyclopedia is clearly a "cybertext"? I'm just not seeing it. I'm taking the term to refer to a work that actually changes depending on the reader and the precise way they read or "operate" it, and aside from a possible vague reference to WP itself, an encyclopedia is generally just a bunch of books, isn't it?  Ahh, unless it's referring to a CD/DVD-based encyclopedia...  I'll go add that. --Arvedui 01:00, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No, I've changed my mind, even that doesn't quite make it a proper cybertext to my understanding of the term. I'm taking it out instead. If someone can figure out in what sense "Clearly, an encyclopedia is a cybertext according to this definition, as well as hypertext." is obviously true, please put it back in with a short explanation! --Arvedui 07:55, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Bevagna

message: This photo doesn't represent the town at all well; and I'm even suspecting it might not be Bevagna.... If it is, it's a historical photograph, though; and suggests that the place is an awful dump, which it isn't: some splendid (and huge) medieval churchs, very clean, etc. Bill 01:05, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the picture is indeed misleading. But it is not rare to find in Italy semi-abandoned houses side to side with freshly restored ones. Especially after earthquakes, this is typical. The citizens do not care or have no money, the comune officers are lazy or have no money, and the buildings perish. This said, I can print the picture and ask a beanate next time I go there :-) --Cantalamessa 01:05, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Yes, such non- or anti-Marxist organizations as the Iraqi Islamic Party and, most notably, The Republicans (France) (as well as its Gaullist predecessors the Union for a Popular Movement, the Rally for the Republic, and the Union of Democrats for the Republic, etc.) have, or have had, a political bureau. There needs to be a separate article for political bureau as opposed to politburo -- or at least a link to a broader term, such as national executive, executive committee, or a combination of the two. -- Picapica (talk) 20:03, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  This should go 

message: At a February 7, 2007 taping of "The Colbert Report," Colbert said that the P.K. stands for Percy Kittens, which was Tim Meadow's name on "Strangers With Candy." I wasn't sure if I should just put it in the first paragraph, or start a subtitle for it. The latter seemed excessive, so I went with the former. Two problems: one, I'm not sure if this can be added to Wikipedia. I was in the audience so I heard it from Colbert directly (as to authenticity), but I don't know if that counts as hearsay or not. Two, I'm not sure if I put it in the right place in this article, but debate is more than open on this. HelloAnnyong 23:37, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Looking up the 2008 academic book cited - which appears to be the main justification for this page's notability -
the book's author does *not* assert that the phrase "The Sick Man of Asia" has been widely used to refer to China. Rather, David Scott
the author is using the phrase rather to make a comparison *himself*. There is only one other source for the phrase in the book, a 2004 use by another

Talk:Cheshire Plain

message: I think a project or a sub-project (within the UK geography project) dealing with the whole of Cheshire would be a good idea.
I have taken as a precedent the project about Cornwall, which any project dealing with Cheshire could hope to aspire to, since this project has constructed Featured Articles about Cornwall-related things. So, I've listed a proposed project concerning Cheshire on Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals. I think it can easily co-exist with Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography. I would not want to diminish or withdraw from this other project. If you are interested in contributing to this proposed project, please add your name to list at the appropriate place. If you think it might be better placed as a sub-project of the existing UK Geography Project, please say so on that project's talk page, here, and let us discuss it.

Talk:Symphony No. 93 (Haydn)

message: The bassoon at the end of the second movement is clearly a "Haydn joke" and one of the better ones at that.  At the point when the music had been getting more and more "pretty", the bassoon simply sounds very "flatulent".  The flatulence is actually played up memorably in some recordings (e.g. Szell/Sony).  Steinberg says "Haydn points out rudely - very rudely - that there is such a thing as being too dreamy."  Its difficult to mention a joke of this nature without sounding "unencylopedic" and the phrase getting "fixed" by someone who doesn't want a great work of Haydn somehow trivialized as some sort of farce. So, I'll leave this on the discussion page for now.  When there is more analysis of the full work then this comic detail might be better explained.  At the moment, its the only thing mentioned about the music.  DavidRF 01:58, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
