thread_title: Outline removed

message: What exactly differentiates a "Webquest" from normal internet research?  I just transfered to a school which uses them as solitary exercises.  They seem, to me, to merely be an elaborate method of presenting a research topic.  One which, I might add, seems to invariably ignore the suggested links and go straight to Wikipedia. 75.105.183.113 (talk) 10:33, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Clarification

message: This wiki page is missing a standing definition. The typical format is Definition, Table of Content, Content. This page does a good job of explaining how to use webquests - but doesn't really explain what a webquest is. I've never used them, so I cannot add this information, but perhaps some one more familiar with them could add a working definition and description at the top of the page to make this wiki page more clear and more useful.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.36.53.239 (talk) 13:56, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Working definition? 

message: The use in education section is a combination of promoting WebQuests and how-to. It also gives examples of how teachers do use the WebQuest model. This last point is what I think the focus should be; the first two aspects should be removed.
At a minimum, the unbalanced nature of the coverage needs to go. The section reads like a listing of the advantages of web-quests. Additionally, subjective adjectives like "fluid and dynamic" sound too much like hype and not enough like an encyclopedia for me.
A section on limitations and applicability that mentions that WebQuests are not good for mastering rote knowledge of facts would be good.

message: As noted above in 2005 by @Slac, this page "should be limited to information on parties and political history, with a cursory overview of the mechanism of government; the constitutional nitty-gritty should be at [ Queensland Government]".

Utterly redundant with :Category:Powell and Pressburger films - David Gerard 22:09, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Looking at the recent (10 March 2016) changes by 188.39.129.146, I can see where they're going with this, but is it worth it? Some of the films listed as Quota Quickies aren't quickie films (in terms of production time, budget or in content) and they certainly aren't quota films, films like The Red Ensign or The Love Test. Not all of his films made before The Edge of the World were Quota Quickies. And what about Powell's TV work like the episodes of The Nurses, The Defenders and Espionage? And what about Return to the Edge of the World? -- SteveCrook (talk) 14:10, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I've reverted these edits.  Too problematic.  There is long-standing consensus not to include cast and crew in navboxes normally, but these additions were a pretty incoherent bunch.  Also, we should only link to WP:EXISTING articles, and if TV episodes are to be included, the links should be to the individual episodes, not the series as a whole.  --Rob Sinden (talk) 12:43, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Aerial bombing 

message: There was a renaming/deletion discussion that proposed the deletion of this cateogry (see above). There was no consensus, but it would seem useful to restrict the articles here to those with the word massacre in the title. My idea is that the other synonyms (see Massacre) could be categorised separately by whatever they are called (the redirects could also be categorised this way), and then all of them grouped together under a more neutral title. This would be a preliminary reorganisation to see if any order can be brought to the category. Does this sound OK? Carcharoth 09:42, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: disagree. if reliable sources attest to the branding of something as a massacre, then the categorization is encyclopedic.Bakaman 01:39, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Coneflower

message: There seems to be a problem with this article. What does it describe? A genus or a species? If it is a species, what is its Latin name?
The taxobox is that of a genus. 
In the List of Asteraceae genera it is listed as the genus Dracopis. The article text mentions a member of Rudbeckia or Echinacea. That's 3 genera. The words 'a member of' suggests it is a species.
TeunSpaans 13:36, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Coneflower is a common name used by two (or three is you also take Dracopis) different genera. Dracopis is a monotypic genus with Dracopis amplexicaulis, the accepted name of the synonym Rudbeckia amplexicaulis  JoJan 16:01, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Good edit - now it's clear we are dealing with a genus, not with a species. Could you also included a bit on the Dracopis in the article? Else visitors coming from List of Asteraceae genera are a bit lost as to why they have been redirected here. TeunSpaans 18:12, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: I strongly suggest we split this article up into 3 separate articles, each one dealing with one and only one genus. As for the term Coneflower, it deserves a disambiguation page which points to different genera in different articles (plus a few explanation for the origine of the term perhaps). Moreover, a cleanup is necessary and taxon names used in this article are very messy (coneflowers, black-eyed susan...). What do you think ?Qwertzy2 1 July 2005 18:45 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Countdown deletion/The single-author requirement

message: Based on the objections below that were raised to the single-author requirement, it has been removed from the proposal.
===Should it go?===
If no one but the original author edits the page, it is automatically deleted. Frankly, some subjects are too obscure for other Wikipedians to get involved with, but they are still encyclopedic. For example, I've written a number of biographies of New Zealand scientists. I think they're worthy of including in Wikipedia, but the chances are that no other current Wikipedian is knowledgable about the history of mycology in New Zealand. I'd be happy to defend them on VfD, but under your proposal, they'd be indefensible unless I could find someone else to make a contribution to the articles. 
Perhaps, if the article has been substantially changed even by the original author in the first seven days, it should be voted on.-gadfium 02:13, 8 Nov 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: As it stands, the provision on single-user editing would probably hurt more than it would help. In the "worst case", all that happens is a vote that might have been unnecessary. Countdown votes would still go far quicker than VfD votes. We should toss the provision out. JRM 08:57, 2004 Nov 8 (UTC)
===How do we deal with dynamic IPs?===
If an anonymous user is on dial-up, then each edit they make may be with a different IP address, without them attempting to circumvent the rules. If they get an account part way through the process, then they have both the original edits, and signed edits.-gadfium 02:13, 8 Nov 2004 (UTC)
