message: I have removed the protection and included the statement already on Antichrist, as seems to be the consensus above. This is my first involvement with this article.

thread_title: removed protection

message: I just found a pre-SqueakBox reference to this wikipedia article on a forum page, and thought people might be interested in reading it. It is the second entry here. What intrigues me is the reference to Solana having too much power; what I have elsewhere described as the megalomania thesis. This reader has taken it very seriously. In my opinion Solana having too much power is a POV, as was written by Cumbey, though a balanced NPOV and more profound analysis of the power he has may well be appropriate. This reference is a reminder that people do read and believe what they read at wikipedia, which is why it is so vital for us to give a balanced account of Solana here. --SqueakBox 01:57, Apr 15, 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Uptown Houston/Archive 1

message: The popular "water wall" located adjacent to Williams Tower is worth a walk even in the hot weather. During the evening, it is lit from the bottom and is quite beautiful.
If you stand on the "inside" of the semicircle, the falling water and lack of other visible reference creates a very amusing optical illusion which I won't spoil by describing here.

message: Hello all. I have begun to attempt to implement the English IPL rules into several of the conflict of laws pages. Some, Characterisation one in particular, needs a lot of work. I wondered your thoughts on consolidating Characterisation with the conflicts choice of law article. Characterisation, at least in its English use, is a technique used to determine the application of choice of law rules.Per Dicey & Morris, cf Rule 2 It is unclear whether it warrants a page entirely on its own seeing as how, English law uses it as a technique to 'characterise' causes of actions - and subsequently apply choice of law rules to those characterised actions. It was pioneered under MacMillan v Bishopsgate (No 3), which, to those unfamiliar, may warrant a read. I am of the opinion that it would be better to be under its own heading within choice of law, alongside a concerted effort to expand the Brussels and Rome Regulation exploration within this article (as it operates a crucial and primary tenant of EU Conflict of laws rules, especially relating to commercial and civil matters. Particularly the Rome Regulations, which are themselves mandatory rules which determine English (and EU more generally) rules of characterisation. 
I'd be happy to hear other's thoughts on this matter and am willing to provide further reasoning for my proposal

Talk:Sareena

message: I removed a disambig that linked to SaRenna Lee.  If anyone would like to put forth why it should be put back, please explain but personally I think it's silly- 99.999% of people looking on here for SaRenna Lee will use her full name (I wouldn't search for the world's richest man by looking for "Bill") and, aside from much else, the two names aren't even spelled the same way.  --L T Dangerous 16:29, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I'd say Sareena is a common way to misspell it, but I agree with the last-name logic. On the other hand, if someone searched for Sareena and misspelled it as Sarenna, there's no way for them to get to the MK articles - perhaps a DAB is in order? Virogtheconq 17:14, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree about the disambig link, but I'd had negative dealings with the editor in the past and was concerned that it would be seen as an attack, so I left it. I think a disambig page for Sarenna would be a good idea. EVula 20:05, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: SaRenna is frequeltly referred to simply by her first name by her fans. Easily mistyped Sareena plus those less familiar with her work often assume her name is actually spelled Sareena. Thus, to avoid such confusion, I say we heep the hatnote, which complies with wikipedia policy on hatnotes. Alternately, there is definitely an argument out there that a common female name should not be monopolized by a video game character...perhaps we should create a disambig for Sareena and include a list of notable Sareenas (and notable prople with names spelled like Sareena, like Sarenna Lee.Justinpwilsonadvocate 03:56, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, there aren't any other pages about people with the name Sareena, and it's silly to have a disambig. page with only one link in it (there might be a WP policy on that?) - IMO, go ahead and reinsert the hatnote, but don't move the page. Virogtheconq 06:05, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds good to me -- just keeping the harnote seems like a good compromise, though a disambig may be justified by the fact that there are notable people with similarly spelled names and a user may confusedly type in "Sareena"...but I am more than happy to let this issue rest of the hatnote remains.

Talk:Extreme sport

message: The “morality” section on this page does not contain any mention of morality. It simply reiterates that 1. Extreme sports involve a degree of danger and 2. That danger is part of the appeal of extreme sports. This could be the start of a substantive discussion of moral arguments for and against extreme sports, but right now it is not. This section should either be deleted or majorly elaborated upon. 2601:184:4A7F:86D0:C465:ED2D:3300:4E1 (talk) 06:21, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Roger Goldsworthy

message: Some other information that probably should be included in the article in order to ensure completeness:
In 1886 The Australian Race by E. M. Curr was published.  It included the vocabularies of various Aboriginal tribes [sic].  Three of these vocabularies were attributed to Goldsworthy:
* Vocabulary no.14, The Eaw tribe, pp.314-315 in E.M. Curr,The Australian race, Vol.1.
100 words.
* Vocabulary no.15, The Champion Bay tribe, pp.316-317 in E.M. Curr, The Australian race, Vol.1.
111 words.
* Vocabulary no.30, Mount Stirling: Kokar tribe, pp.384-385 in E.M. Curr, The Australian race, Vol.1.  100 words.
From an anthopological point of view, these early records are extremely important resources.  The apparent fact that Goldsworthy took the trouble to record the vocabularies of the indigenous peoples of Western Australia gives a fresh insight into the man.  On the other hand, a number of other contributors to Curr's book also served as Colonial Secretary of Western Australia, so perhaps these entries are merely extracts from the records of the office of Colonial Secretary.  Goldsworthy had left Australia six years before the publication of the book, so I think the latter is more likely.

Talk:Sheyenne River

message: Whoever redirected Sheyenne River in North Dakota to Cheyenne River in Wyoming needs to check their facts.   There are two different rivers, two different spelling and two different states.
Further, they are not even in the same watershed.  The Cheyenne River in Wyoming empties into the Platte River in the Mississippi watershed, eventually flowing south into the Gulf of Mexico.   The Sheyenne River in North Dakota empties into the Red River watershed which eventually flows north into Hudson's Bay.

Presumbably, the statutes of most states have similar authority.
Spelling
American law tends to spell the term "cy pres", with no hyphen or accent grave.  This is the usage in Black's and the Phillips case discussed in the main article.  I'm inclined to change the spelling unless someone points out a reason not to.

message: I have read the decision (), and corrected an error in the lead.
Francis Jackson's will, so it turns out, has two bequests: a $10,000 bequest for the propagation of abolitionism, and a $200 one for the benefit of fugitive slaves. Both bequests were at issue in this case, but the court applied cy-pres slightly differently. The first bequest was changed to "paid by them from time to time to an association already established, to promote the education, support and interests of the freedmen, lately slaves, in those states in which slavery had been so abolished, to be expended for that object"; while the second bequest was changed to, due to its smaller amount, "the use of necessitous persons of African descent in the city of Boston and its vicinity, preference being given to such as had escaped from slavery."--Samuel di Curtisi di Salvadori 21:33, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

: There are three meanings for "K-12" or "K12". The K-12 article refers to the U.S. educational meaning, but includes a disambig line at the start to help with other meanings; such as the mountain. The reverse is also true; i.e. this article (K12) includes a link to the same disambig page. If there are more than two distinct meanings for a term (or similar terms) and the subject discussed in the article may not be the one that is being searched for, the standard action is to include a link to the disambig page where the user can decide which one they wanted.
