Talk:Gun Hill Road (road)

message: Where are the reliable secondary sources with nontrivial coverage? The sources listed seem to be primarily maps, subway schedules, and a gazetteer of place names, rather than anything in-depth about this particular road. Which is fine for a basic level of Wikipedia coverage, I guess, but is it really enough to support a good article nomination? —David Eppstein 18:57, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Good Article review

message: This article is nowhere close to being a GA, despite being listed. Do you think that this article should be reassessed? Thanks.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 12:20, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: , I agree. This and East 233rd Street (Bronx) might need reassessment, since the history sections of both articles lack a lot of information. Currently, these articles are structured similarly to good articles about rural roads, but the difference is that rural roads do not have a lot of history and are relatively straightforward, unlike these two pages. epicgenius (talk) 13:48, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Motor Torpedo Boat Squadron Three

message: User Graphic3211 has been objecting to the mention of the destroyers "Peary or Pillsbury" contending they had left the area on 26 December 1941. The reference, written by Captain Robert J. Bulkley (not Bulkeley), Jr. USNR (Retired), Jr. USNR (Retired) and published by the Naval History Division is found on page 6 under the heading "4. THE FLEET WITHDRAWS" and clearly covers actions based out of Sisiman Bay on the the Bataan Peninsula after the withdrawal from Cavite and before those destroyers withdrew. The section opens with actions out of Sisiman Bay and closes with descriptions of the state after the fleet withdraws. The exact text is with my emphasis:
:The first few weeks at Sisiman Bay were discouraging. The squadron took over a small fishing dock and a few native nipa huts ashore. Each morning John Bulkeley visited headquarters to receive orders for the night's operations. The boats made routine, nonproductive patrols of the Bataan coast north of Manila Bay, and along the Batangas Peninsula to the south, as far as Verde Island. Doctrine demanded that PT's patrol in two- or three-boat sections, so that if one boat should find itself in trouble, there would be another at hand to give assistance. But because there were so few boats, so few spares, so little gasoline, prudence had to make concessions. Seldom could more than one PT be spared for a patrol. Often one PT was accompanied by a YP, a small patrol vessel, either the Maryanne, the Perry, or the Fisheries II, or, until they departed from the area, one of two four-stack destroyers, the Pillsbury and the Peary. As the Japanese closed their net, nerves became tense and there were false reports of sightings along the Bataan coast. Many fruitless PT searches resulted.
The cited reference is quite clear. Palmeira (talk) 16:02, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Sett

message: It says:
"They may also be excavated using man-made structures like roofs, building foundations, concrete sidewalks, and paved roadways which can lead to damage of such structures including subsidence."
The word "using" makes it sound as if the sett is excavated "by using" man-made structures.
Would this clearer if it said:
"They may also be excavated under man-made structures like roofs, building foundations, concrete sidewalks, and paved roadways which can lead to damage of such structures including subsidence."
If so, that leads to a second problem: how can a badger excavate under a roof? Foundations, sidewalks, and roads make sense, but not roofs.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.16.140.25 (talk) 19:28, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

message: Hi, posting here for some opinions. The controversial article for the Epstein didn't kill himself meme states: "Australian rapper Matthew Lambert of Hilltop Hoods, after winning the 2019 ARIA Music Award for Best Australian Live Act, included the phrase in his acceptance speech." providing a reference by Newsweekhttps://www.newsweek.com/australian-rappers-says-epstein-didnt-kill-himself-1474397 to back it up.

Should this statement also be included in the Perspectives section of this article? Seems worthy of mentioning that he included the phrase "Epstein didn't kill himself" in his award speech as a perspective.

Module talk:Location map/data/CanadaGeo

message: 06-Nov-2007: The map definition "Template:Location map CanadaGeo" was created November 5, 2007, to allow placing markers over similar maps of Canada.  It was created for using the new mapping procedure Template:Location_map_polarx, which can position markers/labels at coordinates skewed to match locations on polar-projection maps. An example using that new template is included to show markers placed on the geopolitical map of Canada.  -Wikid77 20:21, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Created

message: 21-Feb-2008: I have recalibrated the map settings to re-align markers onto precise locations for 8 points: Vancouver (west), Edmonton (west), Quebec City (east), Yellowknife (northwest), Churchill (Manitoba/center), Winnipeg (center), Alert (top), and the arctic circle (latitude 66.5 N). The new settings reduce the top/bottom distance, and lower the skew factors, with:
::* top=91.1, bottom=41.3, skew=0.00005, and lat_skew=1.275.
::* the longitude shift (from -90.0 degrees) is set as lon_shift=4.1.
All 8 aligned markers are shown, to verify placement, in the updated examples on the doc subpage for the map-spec template: Template:Location_map_CanadaGeo/doc. Recalibration was based upon initial alignment of Churchill (Manitoba/center), Winnipeg (center), and the arctic circle, followed by adding outer cities while adjusting skew=0.00005, and lat_skew=1.275. -Wikid77 (talk) 18:25, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

message: The current map, :File:Canada geopolitical map trim.jpg is based on :File:Geopolitical map of Canada.png. To me, the latter map seems to be a better choice for two reasons:
# it is less crowded (no coat of arms and flag, however nice those may look by themselves, clutter the map fringes)
# it does not have any incongruous fonts (the serif caption for the coat of arms and the miles added to the scale bar do not look very good).

Talk:Free funk

message: I am not sure this genre truly exists outside of Allmusic's categorization scheme (same with "Modern Creative", "Early Creative" etc.)  This article cites the Allmusic page about the genre, in addition to two other sources that I am not sure make a strong case that it's an actual genre:
# I do not believe the Daniel Wichert piece qualifies as a reliable source for this article.  The text is in German, but that isn't my biggest concern.  I understand a little German, enough to to ascertain that the title page indicates this was written for a school (presumably as an assignment), and that the document itself is hosted within an online collection of student papers.
# As for the second source, the book Jazz: a Regional Exploration, Scott Yanow does mention the term "free funk", however he also writes for Allmusic and so I still question whether this genre is (notably) used outside of Allmusic and/or its contributors.
