Talk:Erick Swenson

message: Much of this content was taken from the previously written entry on Erick Swenson that was Google cached: http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:0OSgHoQaopQJ:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erick_Swenson
I don't know why Swenson was deemed "non-notable." Is that a dig at Whitney Biennials or something?
Please don't delete this again. If you get into a Whitney Biennial, have a solo show at the Hammer Museum and have Charles Saatchi own your work, then you are a notable artist, no? What other criteria do you use?
I have to agree (as an ex-art-history major, for the record).  Saatchi's a major collector of contemporary art, and anybody he owns ought to be considered notable.  And the Whitney Biennial's nothing to sneeze at, either.
That said, I do think that this could stand some severe cleaning up. --User:AlbertHerring Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla! 20:55, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Sudan Liberation Movement/Army

message: Since Nogburt has chosen to delete all of the content except the lead sentence; the article has to be rebuilt using reliable sources.  I have made a first stab at that. Editor Hiddekel may say that The SLM was created in reaction to the increasingly violent, divisive, and forcefully arabo-islamist dictatorship of General Al-Bashir. is POV, but it appears to be substantiated by reliable sources.  Does it make it any better to phrase it as feelings of increased marginalization or as a perception of an increasingly violent, divisive, and forcefully arabo-islamist dictatorship?  --Bejnar (talk) 19:59, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Willoughby, New South Wales

message: "There is some conjecture as to how Willoughby was named. Some historians believe it was named after a parish, while others believe that Surveyor-General Sir Thomas Mitchell decided to commemorate Sir James Willoughby Gordon whom he had served during the Peninsular War and was the quartermaster-general in England when the First Fleet sailed to Botany Bay."
There is no mystery here.  The cadastral parishs of Willoughby and Gordon on the north shore were both named by Mitchell,  after his friend Sir James Gordon Willoughby.   The "suburb" names of Willoughby and Gordon were derived from those cadastral parish names,  much later ( long after Mitchell's death ).  The "suburb" of Gordon,   was not thus named until the 1880's ( long after Mitchell's death ).
Also,  Sir James Willoughby Gordon was not quartermaster general "when the First Fleet sailed to Botany Bay",   but about 30 years after that.Eregli bob (talk) 12:42, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Talk:News 4 New York

message: Please Merge this article with wnbc
It should be noted that when WNBC adopted the News 4 New York title in 1980, it was actually the second time the slogan was in use.  Previously, the newscasts bore the News 4 New York umbrella in 1971-72.  New York-Metro TV Guide editions of the period used this title in ads promoting the newscasts (including one with Dick Schaap in an October 1971 issue), and a 1972 New York magazine article on former Cleveland mayor Carl Stokes at the point he came to WNBC as a co-anchor of the 6 P.M. edition (with Paul Udell) showed a picture of him at the news desk and "News 4 New York" was displayed on the top of the desk. –Wbwn 23:19, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Croats

message: Respected everyone, I am of the opinion that Croats and Serbs are natives of the Balkans and that there is good literature, references, notes and sources and that Serbs and Croats, except the southern Slavs were Illyrians, and also that Serbs are Vinci and Croats Vučedol. Considering a video entitled "Arrival of Serbs and Croats and the Siege of Constantinople in 626 - The Immigration of Slavs to the Balkans" by the author of the Serbian Battle, I think we are. I have said or will say the same on hr.wiki and en.wiki. Also, apart from being Slavs, Illyrians and Vučedolci (Serbs are Illyrian as well, but Vinci) we are also a Mediterranean race as we are together with Serbs a Dinaric race.

replies: text: Definitely not. The term chūnyùn refers to the phenomenon in mainland China, where economic takeoff along the eastern coast and certain inland urban centres (e.g. Wuhan, Chongqing) has attracted people from less developed areas to work as mín'gōng in the more developed areas (what is termed mángliú). Before the Chūnjié these people take buses and trains to return to their hometowns, and after the Chūnjié they go back to work or to look for new jobs.  Hong Kong people travel during the Lunar New Year to visit their relatives and for vacation. They don't work as mín'gōng and their travelling is not mángliú. — Instantnood 21:34, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Ugandan Bush War

message: Hi, and thanks everyone for contributing!  I'm not going to be making any more reversions on this page per advise from a more experienced editor.  However I would suggest that either  or another editor consider addressing the following edit:
*Original: "The ranks of the UNLA included many ethnic Acholi and Lango, who had themselves been the victims of Amin's genocidal purges in northern Uganda.  Despite this, under Obote, the UNLA targeted civilians and subjected(this was a typo in the original, corrected here) them to abuses, reminiscent of Amin's own."
*New: "The ranks of the UNLA included many ethnic Acholi and Lango, who had themselves been the victims of Amin's genocidal purges in northern Uganda.  Despite this, the UNLA under Obote targeted and abused civilians, reminiscent of Amin's own abuses."
The two problems with the second passage, and the reason the original was a better choice of words are 
*a) The abuses to which the civilians were subjected are the things that are reminiscent of Amin's own (abuses).  The new version is grammatically incorrect.  The new version is lacking a noun that is reminiscent of Amin's own abuses.  Reminiscent is an adjective and can only modify a noun.  In the New version, that noun has been changed to the verb "to abuse" which cannot be modified by an adjective.  
*b) The same sentence contains abused and abuses, that's poor word choice.

Talk:Princely abbeys and imperial abbeys of the Holy Roman Empire

message: Only a few of the Abbots were actually Princes of the Holy Roman Empire - Fulda, Kempten, Ellwangen, Weissenburg, Berchtesgaden, Stablo, Prüm, Hersfeld, and Korvey, I believe.  The rest had only collective votes in the Council of Princes, in either the College of Prelates of the Rhine or the College of Prelates of Swabia.  The appropriate designation for them is "Prelates."  The distinction is comparable to that between secular princes and counts.  This ought to be clarified. john k 20:54, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Abbots and Prelates 

message: The foundation date should be 936, not 836; it was established by Henry I and his wife, Mathilda, shortly before the former's death.  Also, calling it a "nunnery" is a bit inaccurate; St. Servatius was a female canonry, rather than a house of Benedictine (or other) nuns per se. SGilsdorf 04:53, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Selz's foundation date is c. 991, not 968-999; although the property on which the monastery was built was given to its founder (Adelheid) by her husband Otto I in 968, she did not establish a religious community there until late in her life.
