thread_title: Don't delete without an explanation

message: I wonder if the Greek name for the town should be left as it is, as an alternate official name. I doubt that anywhere in the official Bulgarian administrative registers there is such entry at present. Historically, in the town there was a sizeable Greek population which left in 1913 but in Thessaloniki there was a sizeable Bulgarian population, too, which called the town Солун. And yet Солун is listed way down only as historic name. If we go tit-for-tat, Μελένικο should also go down only as a historic name. --Lantonov (talk) 14:54, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I have nothing against having the Greek name in the intro: it's relevant, and the place is not reserved only for official names: see Szentendre or something like that.

Talk:Zheng Enchong

message: Has he been sentenced to five years', or three years' imprisonment? I can only find references to the latter.
Zheng Enchong was tried behind closed doors on 28 August 2003. His family were barred from the trial on the grounds that the case involved ‘state secrets’. More than 100 people, to most of whom Zheng had given legal help, protested outside the court. He was found guilty and on 28 October 2003 was sentenced to three years in prison.
Zheng Enchong, aged 54, was sentenced to three years in prison on 28 October 2003 by Shanghai No. 2 Intermediate People’s Court on charges of “supplying state secrets to foreign entities”. Amnesty International is concerned that his detention and eventual sentencing were politically motivated to prevent him from defending people’s right to adequate housing.

Talk:Darryl McDaniels

message: This whole page seems to be a paraphrase of the VH-1 special about his adoption. Past the early days of Run-DMC and talking about his voice disorder, it's almost scene-by-scene. I visited the page while watching the special hoping for some more information on Darryl and... well, I wasn't exactly satisfied with the information here.
It does discuss the early days of Run-DMC and Darryl's involvement there, but then it skips to 1997 and then sounds like record company copy, or something. This is not, in any sense of the word, a reliable biography of Darryl McDaniels.

I rewrote the article. Hope everyone finds it satisfactory.

Research-oriented, creative and student-based education, which does not dictate knowledge, but teaches the ways to reach information, gives importance to team work, tries to keep student-staff interaction at high levels.
*What kind of Student? Intellectual individuals with developed communication skills, who use their mind, don’t hesitate to ask questions, dream and think, and are hardworking, productive and creative, sensitive to social problems, respectful to their essential values.
*What kind of Society? A powerful society composed of individuals who protect their Republic supporting secularist and social state devoted to rule of law and is conscious of its values in the light of rationality and science and can use these values for production, has very strong and active university-industry-society interaction, have common interests for the independence and eternity of the country.

message: I think the history section in this article is missing a huge gap in time between World War II and the time that Sylvester Stallone re-popularized the brand. From my own original research Panerai made small batches of watches in the 30's and 40's with Rolex and Angelus movements and then went bankrupt. Nothing happened with the brand until 1972 when they changed the name to Oficine Panerai following the death of Giusepe Panerai. Then in 1993 the company started up again - Stallone stumbled across them in Florence and they've been successful ever since. The article is really light on this type of information - is there a reliable source for Panerai history that anyone knows about?--Yankees76 Talk 20:39, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

message: I noticed in ComicVine:
:"Devil's Due Publishing was formed in 1999 as a comic book imprint within Image comics before breaking away in 2003."
Also from YoJoe on DD:
:In 2001, Devil's Due Press, initially using Image Comics to distribute their titles, revived the G.I. Joe property in comic book form
And YoJoe on IC:
:Devil's Due Studios acquired the rights to produce the G.I. Joe A Real American Hero comic series in 2001, starting with a four issue, bi-monthly series published through Image Comics. With issue five, the series went to a monthly shipping schedule. This series sometimes considered Volume 2 continued the story of the characters created in the Marvel run by Larry Hama. This universe was informally known as the "Hamaverse". In January of 2004, issue #26, Devil's Due left Image Comics and began publishing independently as Devil's Due Publishing (DDP).
I got looking into this because of this 2012 edit to its titles which had it listed as a subset of Image Comics.
There is no mention of Image in the company's history section though, nor in this article. If it is the case they have a past affiliation with Image, this is worth mentioning, but it needs to be supported by references.
