message: — Assignment last updated by Leon2008cheng (talk) 07:43, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Honors World Religions

message: - Adjust and expound the lead section to cover the additional information and sections.
- Expound the section, "Interpretations of gender-based scriptures," by mentioning how translations of biblical texts may open opportunities for misinterpretation, how biblical figures themselves make sexist statements, and how attributing traits to be masculine or feminine creates sexist expectations.
- Added a new section titled "Women and their roles in Christianity" to give a general overview of the roles that women have played in the Bible even if it is not in leadership. 
- Expounded the "Reproduction, sexuality and religion" section with information about what scholars and health professionals argue about the unfairness of abortion being dealt with using a religious perspective.
- New section titled "Contemporary Christian perspectives on women" which discusses how the Christian faith affects how issues involving women are approached. It also talks about how women utilize their faith to help those around them, thus, showing how women practice their Christian faith.

Talk:Bernie Worrell

message: In the article there is a sentence stating that Bernie was once in a band called Chubby and the Turnpikes, later called The Tavares which has no entry. This should be simply Tavares -- the reference to Chubby (Tavares), the oldest brother, clued me in right away, and yes, the Tavares entry does speak of its beginnings as Chubby and the Turnpikes.

Never mind, I'm new here -- I found out how to change the link and, since it only involved removing the word "The" from The Tavares, I did it myself. -- Misterdoe 05:41, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: BLP status change

message: I think there's some question regarding the (unsourced internet article) statement that Bernie Worrell received the second Minimoog in production.
Moog Music's article on Bernie Worrell and the Minimoog (https://www.moogmusic.com/news/bernie-worrell-minimoog-model-d) does not reference this though the article does state that Bernie procured the second RMI Electra piano (after Stevie Wonder) from a music store in Detroit.  Further, the Moog Music article quotes Bootsy Collins stating that George Clinton purchased Worrell's first Minimoog. Worrell's first documented minimoog performance would have been Parliaments's 1975 Mothership Connection album. There is no evidence that he used a Minimoog (via album credits, historical interviews, or recorded audio) as early as its 1970 release. Polyhistor (talk) 07:00, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

message: "Upon the death of Zhou Enlai, a popular Chinese politician, and public dissident to Deng's reforms, the late Mao backpedaled on his appointment and carried out a program the criticise Deng Xiaoping campaign."
Mao couldn't have been late at that point, because he died after Enlai. Also, how could a late person (someone who is dead) backpedal?

Talk:Isen (Middle-earth)

message: This page is taking redirections from a page "Angren".  
Angren is the name of a province in Uzbekistan and it is linked to in the Uzbekistan page Uzbekistan.
The redirection of "Angren" to "Isen" should be removed and a separate page established for Angren as it is does not make sense for a real place name to link to a fictional reference.  --DMC-ee 05:24, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: We can't link to pages that do not exist. I agree that an actual place should take precedence over an uncommon alternate translation of a fictional one... but the fictional name takes precedence over nothing by default. Someone needs to create an 'Angren' article for the province and then this page could just be a 'hatnote' on that article. --CBD 11:26, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Rage of Angels

message: This article seems to suggest that the heroine of the novel is both an Assistant District Attorney and a Criminal Defense Attorney.  Wikipedia defines the District Attorney roles in the USA as being involved in the prosecution of cases, not defense.  So what is she?  And if the answer is that her role changes during the course of the novel, from prosecution to defense work, can the article be written in such a way as to make this clear?  I can't do this, not having read the novel - although I have long admired the title!   Solaricon (talk) 16:18, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Doug Walters

message: I made this edit removing the mention that Walters hit a century in a session in Tests three times. He did it twice - v WI at Port of Spain, 1972-73 and v England, WACA, 1974-75 - but that seems to be about it. 
The Oxford Companion to Australian Cricket does say that he did it thrice, the third one being against NZ in 1973-74 (Cricinfo might have got that info from there). I quote statistician Charles Davis, who has access to the scorebook the game : The scorebook of the Test that I have is unconventional, and lacks certain details, but it is clearly impossible for Walters to have scored 100 in a session. He came to the wicket at 11:34 and lunch was either 12:30 or 1:00. He took 158 minutes to reach 100. Walters did score 100 before lunch in one of the World XI matches in 1971/72 at Melbourne.
Charlie Wat's book "Australian First Class Cricket" (1993) lists all hundreds in a session in fcc by Australian batsmen. These are the occasions when KDW did so :
100 added to overnight score before lunch :
:*2* to 104* (127), Aus v RoW, Melbourne, 1971-2 (day 5)
100 added between lunch and tea:
:*100 (112), Aus v WI, P-o-S, 1972-73
100 added between tea and stumps :
:*100 (100*) Aus v Northern Dist, 1973-74
:*103*, Aus v Eng, Perth 1974-75.

thread_title:  Century in a session 

message: Re , I am not for or against calling him that in the lead, but the article on Walters in Oxford Companion to Australian Cricket ends :  "Walters, more than any other Australian cricketer of 1970s, epitomised popular "ocker" ideals". (Oxford Companion to Australian Cricketers, ed. Cashman, Franks, Maxwell, Stoddart, Weaver and Webster, Oxford Univerity Press, 1996, p.562) Tintin (talk) 02:56, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If he's ocker then he's ocker, but ocker is different from larrikin. One does not necessarily or even often have to be both. The Macquarie dictionary defines an ocker as an uncultivated Australian working man, who may or may not be boorish, uncouth and chauvinistic. There is currently a useless redirect on the Ocker page, I will have to start a proper entry on it. Grumpyyoungman01 06:52, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

message: A user misplaced an objection to this copyright violation on the main page:
:Actually that is also my article so there is no question about copy right. please put that article. i mean first i wrote that for wikipedia,then for wm-talk thanks salimswati
The URL of the copyvio is a forum post by a user with the same username as the creator of this article. Assuming good faith, I am inclined to believe that this is true, and seeing that the article is now apparently expanded and otherwise different from what was originally a forum post by an unlikely named user, I don't think there is a copyright problem. —Centrx→talk • 05:47, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

message: An editor has twice redirected Stony Creek-Thimble Islands Historic District to this article, which would bring in other material about the portion (no one yet knows how big) of the district that is in the Stony Creek mainland area, not part of the Thimble Islands.  I don't think this is likely to be a good idea, but is there support here for merging this Thimble Islands article into the Stony Creek article, or vice versa?  I guess for discussion sake I will make a merger proposal.  I am indifferent about it actually.  If that merger is done, then further it could be discussed whether merging the NRHP HD article into that merged geo article would make sense. doncram (talk) 02:15, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Good grief! Why would an article about a group of islands be merged with an article about an adjacent mainland area with a different name? OPPOSE. --Orlady (talk) 02:53, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, maybe someone wants to make one combo article, first, which then could be argued as being the appropriate target to merge the NRHP HD into.  I don't really buy either step, but logically I think you need the combo article.  Or maybe this should be a three-way merger proposal, to cover both possible mergers at once. doncram (talk) 04:38, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

text: This discussion seems to have been inspired (at least in part) by the mistaken information (due to an error in a source) that the historic district has an area of 14,000 acres, which would make it bigger than all of Stony Creek and the Thimble Islands (and nearly as big as the entire Town of Branford), and may have led to a perception that both Stony Creek and the Thimble Islands were minor parts of a large and significant HD. In fact, it appears that it the HD is only about 1,400 acres. I've changed the information in the HD article. --Orlady (talk) 16:29, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Master of the Game (novel)

message: Fails on 
*(1a) Needs copyediting.
*(1b) The last three sections are bulleted lists, not prose.
*(1b) I'm not sure what purpose the "Historical references" section serves. Any of this information that is important should be mentioning when discussing the relevant plot or themes of the novel.
*(2b) "Background" section makes no sense - "background" to what? What kind of "background"? I thought it was going to be background to the writing of the novel itself. There are no details here whatsoever. Moreover, we cannot take Sheldon's word on this issue. We need independent verification.
*(3a) There are no sections on the "Themes" of the novel or the writing style used in the novel.
*(3a) Try turning the "Awards and nominations" section into a "Reception" section and describe what critics said in paragraph form.
*(3b) This page is almost entirely plot summary. The summary needs to be severely cut down. See WP:NOT#INFO. Awadewit | talk 20:28, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:English Baroque architecture

message: ----
As I expand the coverage of Baroque architecture, I think it reasonable to spin off national varieties into separate articles. Just check how many articles link here; they formerly referred to the generic article Baroque. I believe an expert like Giano could expand this stub. We should explain our readers what is English Baroque, in the first place. Most often the word is used to refer to Vanbrugh, Hawksmoor, Archer - but quite frequently it is applied to Wren's Classicism as well. So an introduction on the nomenclature and uses of the term would be quite welcome. --Ghirla -трёп- 06:21, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Since the above comment was made in July 2006, the article has been almost completely rewritten, yet I still only consider it to be a Start class article because the lack of reliable sources means the statements made in the article cannot be verified. Because this article documents the circumstances leading to the death of a young person it should be treated like it was a biography of a living person and cite its sources. A strict reading of Wikipedia BLP policy would suggest this article should be shortened to the single sentence that is cited, though that would not be needed if sources for the the rest of the article can be cited. Consequently, this article needs attention to add citations as soon as possible. Also, the article needs to clearly explain why the death is considered a manslaughter. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 09:28, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: Quality

message: While the perpetrators were initially charged with manslaughter, their manslaughter related convictions were overturned on appeal and only the poisoning convictions were upheld. It would seem more probable than not this is a case of manslaughter, though it was also found beyond reasonable doubt to be a case of poisoning. Should the charges laid or the outcome upon appeal be used? The reason it makes a difference is that the subject is described as a victim of manslaughter, yet the perpetrators were ultimately only convicted of poisoning. What standard should be applied here for the victim? How is this victimization classified? Is the subject best described as a manslaughter or a poisoning victim? - Cameron Dewe (talk) 10:47, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Excellent point.  I totally overlooked the fact that the first sentence identifies her as a "Date-rape victim."  While GHB is often called the "Date-rape drug," there were no rape charges, nor any sources suggesting that any of the involved men had sex with her that night. Poisoning is appropriate since it was the cause of death and the crime that the perpetrators were convicted of. 23mason (talk) 16:54, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
