message: Just wanted to share this for irony's sake. I'm working through some of WP's oldest unreferenced BLPs as part of this drive, and this is one of the articles I worked on today. Looking for a citation for the claim that he reviews prog rock for Kerrang!, I turned up this interview at Critical Mass.se:
I've heard that you regularly contribute reviews of progressive metal to Kerrang!. Does it ever feel odd to review other bands when you yourself are such a prominent musical figure? Maybe it makes you understand the business better?
I used to, I don't anymore. I gave it up basically. It's really funny because that thing appears on my page on Wikipedia, that I still do it, and just like many other things on there and on the internet it's kinda accurate but not really you know (he laughs a little). What I used to do was write all kinds of different stuff for them about all kinds of different bands...
So now our article cites this interview, and the circle of texts is complete... Mr Greenway, if you ever see this, apologies. Gonzonoir (talk) 15:06, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Good heavens - if we are, I hope the user that listed them is willing to go back through the thousands of deaths in armies all over the world and add them to the project.  If there's something that makes the deaths of these particular soldiers notable - if they were undertaking some particular action that makes them stand out against the hundreds of deaths every day in armies all over the world, then this should be cited ; none of those soldiers listed for 26th March has an article written for them - are they really sufficiently notable to merit a mention? -- Zaphod Beeblebrox 08:07, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Professional Chess Association

message: The story regarding Brain Games (briefly mentioned in this article) seems to be rather complicated and contentious, based on  and  in which David Levy and Raymond Keene have it at each other.  Roughly, the dispute seems to be about whether Brain Games (and various other companies) was for real, or was an effort to raise a bunch of money by making unrealistic or untrue claims about what business ventures they would enter.  Oh, and disputes between people who had been business partners but fell out. Some of this seems like it could be sourced to (1) Private Eye (number 1093, November 14th-27th 2003), (2) the (Form 8-K) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington on June 5th 2003 (I think by RTG Ventures), (3) Private Eye number 1,044, and probably other media sources, but much of what these pages link to is (a) self-published on various chess websites, and (b) press releases (also a form of self-publication).  I don't know if a lot of reliable sources have taken it on.  There's a mention at our Raymond Keene article but that too is short on facts.  Other companies which were related one way or another to this whole area were Einstein Group plc (which on 24 January 2002 purchased assets from Intellectual Leisure Ltd which had been with Brain Games), RTG Ventures Inc, MJWC (a British Virgin Islands corporation), Mind Sports Olympiad...oh my they just keep coming.  Egads.  This is not turning out to be the simple fact-check I had in mind when I started browsing. Kingdon 15:29, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Give me a bigger number (possibly over 1000 digits) and ask me to return the number it equals when divided by itself 13 times, and I'll tell you real fast. No, I'll do you one better than that: I'll even read your mind, guess the large number you're thinking of, and give you the answer here and now. The answer is [fanfare!] one (1).

Talk:List of political families in the United Kingdom

message: I'd like to nominate the Pitts, Grenvilles and Stanhopes as one of the most complicated families to handle. There are several marriages, and within the family tree are no less than four Prime Ministers (as well as one leading minister from the pre Walpole era).

And there are far too many reuses of the same names (especially Thomas Pitt) to keep things simple.

# because I read over it, read over the Talk page, and I'm not sure there's much problem with it now. It reads pretty well to me, obviously the Faith/Buffy stuff had been removed a while ago. If anyone vehemently disagrees, go ahead and put it back, but also please outline what you feel the urgent problems are. ("This page needs attention", just like Faith, I thought. ;))
# "the legend" was copied straight from the Slayer (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) page, no need to duplicate it here. They can read that there. "powers and abilities" didn't add anything special about Faith.
# Faith's wikiquote page was VfD'd. They have an extensive page on BtVS, but I couldn't figure out how to make the link go to a Wikiquote page that had a different name to this one. Obviously if someone knows how to do that go ahead and put it back in.

Talk:Star Trek: The Original Series

message: The articles name should be „star trek“ and nothing else. That is the actual name of the series like its mentioned in the title screen. The addition „the original series“ should not be there because it is not part of the actual title mentioned in the opening. The title screen should be the only source for this, because it IS the title screen. Wikipedia should list the names of things truthfuly and not some nickname from fans or stuff like that. A mention of the addition can be done in the article text somewhere as some kind of info, but not in the article title itself.
Furthermore the article for the franchise „star trek“ should have the addition „(franchise)“ to distinguish itself from the more older series called „star trek“. 2003:C8:6F25:EE00:BF19:5A5:EBC2:68F9 (talk) 20:43, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Corporation tax

message: "Corporation tax" is the name used in a small number of jurisdictions for a company tax on profits. It should not be confused with company tax (which redirects to corporate tax). IMO, in due course, this page should become a disambiguation page offering the user a number of articles on the different taxes called "corporation tax" by various jurisdiction. At present, however, we only have an article relating to one jurisdiction, the United Kingdom. In due course, it would be nice to have, say, an Irish corporation tax page that could also be led off here. But until we have different articles to disambiguate, I suggest leaving this page as a redirect to the one article we do have, United Kingdom corporation tax, jguk 13:02, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
