thread_title:  July 2010 Spedy Deletion 

message: In an attempt to clear up when Square D introduced the QO breaker line, I can tell you that my parents' house, built in 1957, originally had a 100-amp split-bus QO panel. So 1955 would be a likely date for their introduction. 
The split-bus (offered by most manufacturers) was a much-less-desirable design. When my parents had this panel replaced and the service upgraded, a 150-amp main-breaker QO panel was used. The installing electrician, the late John Gamber of Bel Air, MD, re-used the existing QO breakers since he was convinced of their durability and reliability. All these years later, they perform flawlessly when called upon to trip. 
I am a heating contractor now, but we pay attention to what supplies the equipment we install. If we find a Square D or Cutler-Hammer panel, for example, there's no cause for worry. But if we find a Federal Pacific panel, we won't hook up to it, and we advise the customer to have it replaced.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.246.91.49 (talk) 19:41, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Talk:SportsDirect.com

message: Sports Direct wikipedia talk
It is an insult on the collective intelligence of 1 billion people who rely
on wikipedia as a source of information to educate them on global matters, if wikipedia pages are being used
for self promotion by businesses. This page should not serve as an advertisement platform for SportsDirect and
its businesses, but as an educative platform for the over one billion people who make reference to wikipedia.
The origianal article as composed, denies readers the chance of understanding, debating and discussing the
principal factors that define and identify Sportsdirect as a brand. Hence, the article can best be described as incomplete, inaccurate, intentionally misleading and not upto date.
Sports Direct is a brand that identifies with discounts, Sports Direct Official website, About Us page
selling discounted products all year round. Readers need to be aware of the issues related to the choice they make when they
shop with sports direct. This page is not a page to promote sportsDirect as a business, 
but to inform and educate readers on the identity of SportsDirect.
SportsDirect business identity and practices reflects all that is wrong with the world as it today with regards to []child labour and deprived childhood.
Capitalist tendencies that promotes the cheap production of goods and services. There are many dangers associated with SportsDirect's business identity and what the company stands for. 
Discounted and cheap products are the end results of a long chain of negative inactions that defy any sense of justice and fairness in the world that we live in.
Through this article page, we are able to educate persons on the choices that they make and the direct consequences of this choice. Cheap and discounted products from cheap labour sources in third world countries
imply underpaid children workers, deprived of their childhood ,fundamental liberty and a beffiting future. 
The sports direct article should reflect the choices that people make by patronising these businesses, in the hope that millions would be delivered from capitalism induced child slavery.

Talk:Speed Queen

message: The Song "Speed Queen" from the band Cycle Sluts from Hell is mainly about (female) bikers, but contains the lines "...in your washing machine" and "Baby if you want to use my washing machine first you gotta buy the detergent" which are probably tongue-in-cheek references to this company.

message: I think that this tag refers to the vitriol of Schlussel's words.  I'm not sure how it should be dealt with.  I know that "He said, she said" is not what we mean by NPOV, but for now I've just added a section from Schlussel's article about claims of her being "anti-muslim".

I would agree that almost every published piece of information should fit somewhere on Wikipedia, but there are many, many levels of detail. You cannot add every tiny detail in every context. I argue that the information about football clubs from 1930s are too detailed for an article about the city, especially if they're not balanced with information about current state of affairs.

Talk:Čačak

message: The infobox for Čačak says 
: Etymology: Mud (sr. blato)
Google Translate confirms that blato is Serbian for "mud", and offers no equivalent even remotely resembling čačak. And
§ Middle Ages includes the sentence
: The town's name was changed from Gradac to the current Čačak, Ottoman Turkish for 'mud'. 
Now,
Google Translate gives çamur as Turkish for "mud". That's somewhat similar to Čačak, which would be spelled Çaçak in Turkish (Turkish ç and Serbian č are both pronounced like English ch as in "church"), but it's not close enough to be a convincing etymon. In the absence of any other suggestions, I am deleting this implausible etymology from both the infobox and the text.
History of the "etymology": Forgivenday, whose edits are all in articles related to Serbia and whose English is obviously not native, originally   this (15:27, 17 September 2012) as part of a larger edit:
: Word čačak means mad in turkish language. Turks came here in 1459. Church became mosque. Suleiman the Magnificent, Catib Çelebi and Evliya Çelebi in 16th century and 17th century were talked about Čačak as main place in qadi. 
 Ivacc   (20:09, 27 January 2013) "mad" to "mud", and has made no other edits before or since. My best guess is that Forgivenday, unfamiliar with Turkish or etymological analysis or both, thought that çamur was close enough to Čačak to be its source, but typoed "mad" for "mud",

Talk:Specialized System Consultants

message: Specialized Systems Consultants appears to be defunct.  They used to have a post office box address in Seattle, Washington, and a Web site at http://www.ssc.com.  However, when I visited the URL today, it comes up with a Chinese online casino site.  The company used to publish a line of "SSC Pocket Tutorial" reference cards and pamphlets for Unix-like systems.  Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble still show the products at their sites, but with utterly ridiculous prices.  For example, B&N offers the VI Tutorial for about $750 used, implying these products are out-of-print collector items.  (These tutorials used to be available in bookstores for less than $5.)  A visit to the Wayback Machine shows the site existed through the end of 2006 as Specialized Systems Consultants. In 2007 it became a redirect to LinuxJournal.com.  In 2012 it became just a placeholder page and finally in 2013 it became the Chinese online casino site.In view of the company no longer existing, I propose merging this information into the Linux Journal article and making Specialized Systems Consultants a redirect to Linux Journal. — QuicksilverT @ 17:15, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Leskovac

message: Not that I'm belittling the plight of Muhajir, it's an important one that deserves attention, but I believe my section succinctly addresses this period. Further information can be found on the link provided. The recently added contribution is a blatant cut-and-paste, and way too lengthy and biased. 
Furthermore, I would insist on all Albanian irredentists, Neo-Ottoman revisionist and keyboard jihadie's that have hijacked the article of a small, southern Serbian town to air their grievances elsewhere.. perhaps working on the poorly edited and unfocused 
"Expulsion of the Albanians, 1877–1878" and "Persecution of Muslims during the Ottoman contraction" instead.
For the record I'm a Leskovčanin, my family is from Leskovac, with heritage also from Vlasotince, Milanovo and Rudare. So no need to lecture on what "sources discuss as important for the region". I am from the region. Also have Muslim and Albanian friends, so don't think of calling me a Serbian chauvinist.

The slaves in the British colonies weren't fully emancipated until 1840 (from 1833 to then they were "free" but forced to work as "apprentices".....), so wouldn't they, e.g., still be entitled to compensation for abuse while enslaved? ~ L 🌸 (talk) 02:16, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Southwest Gas

message: Earlier, I reverted some pretty startling unsourced claims about Southwest Gas Corporation (SGC), and those claims were put into the "Safety and Efficiency" section. I did this because they were serious accusations of deliberate violations of safety procedures, and I felt that such claims needed to be sourced, in a manner similar to the Wikipedia policy on biographies of living people. However, reading it now, it seems like that section doesn't do much other than highlight what a good job SGC is doing in being safe and efficient. While I still think that the unsourced claims should be kept out until sources are found to support them, I do have a question:
Should the "Safety and Efficiency" section have a flag on it denoting a potential lack of neutrality?
Also, I just noticed that both sources for the current page are material produced by SGC, which explains, somewhat, the rosy tone of the page's description of SGC... Anyway, Should there be a notice about neutrality? and Other sources need to be found, even if they say the same thing as the SGC web pages.EricWesBrown (Talk) 20:55, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
