Category talk:Pages needing expert attention

message: The reasons for and against the use of this template should be clearly stated. If a page is in "need of an expert", is it because of ..
*the need of an expert opinion in an encyclopedia where opinions are discouraged,
*incoherent content that needs to be represented in a way agreeable to experts in the field,
*the need to define the topic so as to set guidelines for further editing, 
*accuracy dispute or similar (if so, why is the relevant template not used?) ..

message: This category has grown large enough that it may be worth splitting.  As someone who can claim some expertise in a few areas, I'd be willing to go through a list of articles in those areas and see if I can provide assistance.  However it's pretty hard to find the ones in my areas of expertise from a huge list of every article in any field that needs expert attention. --Delirium 20:54, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  I concur as well.  I came onto the talk page to make exactly that point.  It gets exasperating searching for articles one can help on.  Even just splitting them into 8 or 10 "big" categories would massively reduce the amount of searching. However, sorting through these old ones and categorising them would be a pain.

thread_title: Split

message: I looked at some items in this category and found some of them were also tagged with (or could be tagged with) .  There is no way you can claim you need expert when the article is not even sourced!  Actually sourcing the article will probably clear up most problems.  I would like to suggest that a bot go through and remove the expert tag from all articles also tagged with .  Then we can go through what is left and replace the expert tag with  for any other articles lacking sources.  If that is done I think the category will be more managable.--Birgitte§β ʈ Talk 18:51, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Certainly there are cases where we don't need to have the expert tag. In those cases, by all means remove it. I'd advise against making  and  mutually exclusive though, as occassionally there are sources needed, but the article also needs the eye of an expert. --Brad Beattie (talk) 12:29, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Category talk:DC Comics titles

message: I realize that no one has asked for this input, and acknowledge that up front.  However, it seems to me that if anyone coming to this page, or any of the similar pages about characters, creators, titles, etc., of other publishers, sees that their own favorite title is either not listed or does not have a page alreaady, that there is a very good chance that they will create one, and perhaps subsequently cause some measure of disagreement about whether or not it qualifies as "significant."  On that basis, I would suggest that should there be any titles, characters, creators, whatever, which are found to not have sufficient "significance" to qualify for a separate page, that the skeleton data on that subject be included on the main page or a separate page on minor charcters, creators, titles, whatever, probably along with an indication that it has already been determined to not merit its own page.  The Bibliography of Batman Titles page already has several entries in it which do this.  After all, we can never tell when a creator decides to turn a character who had been a virtual nonentity, like Black Orchid, into a character with their own title.  Also, clearly for minor groups which do not qualify as "significant", a slightly longer skeleton entry, listing the title and creator information as well as possibly one or two clause entries on the individual members, might well be sufficient information for any potential future enquiries.  Thank you for having read this statement.Badbilltucker 15:38, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

A musical mass for the dead usually featuring vocalists, chorus and orchestra. Sometimes the word is preceded by the word 'solemn': Solemn Requiem. Sometimes the word is preceded by 'high': High Requiem--which only indicates that portions of the service will be sung or chanted. A High Requiem Mass is a funeral service with communion and singing of parts of the service.

message: Hi - The line in para. 2 about Henry Dearborn is factually incorrect.  Dearborn did serve as a captain in the 1st NH Regiment in 1776, however Cilley was not in command. Begining in 1777 Dearborn was appointed as the major for the newly recruited 3rd NH Regiment and was promoted after the Saratoga Battles to lieutenant colonel. As a staff officer in 1776, Cilley represented John Stark's command.  I Recommend removing this sentence as even if it were true, it would contribute nothing useful about Cilley.
