message: This was left by an IP user:
:A believed theory for this bizarre behaviour is that Orr was secretly trying to increase the amount of air he could hold in his cheeks (via crabapples; also goes along with Orr being last out of plane during the crash he went "missing") and the shape of his palms/hands (for easier swimming/paddling after he brought his plane down).

thread_title: Crabapples

message: Do we really need this as a section unto itself? Couldn't it just go before all the other sections proper? Most other articles don't have an introduction section, and the sectionless bit up the top looks a bit thin. I haven't looked at other character pages with the page template you've using, but I'm guessing the introductions don't need a heading saying "Introduction": it's a bit self-explanatory. Artiste-extraordinaire 15:50, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Initially I was going to disagree - but your version looks must better - so yeah lets get rid of the character introduction - you will find it on about 10 other character pages - just remove it and condense it as you have done here. If anyone else find them please do the same. You may want to mention it over at WP:NOVELS as your suggestion probably goes for all novels, so maybe the template should be changed.

thread_title:  Character Introduction 

message: The article incorrectly states that the Swedish name for the black grouse (Tetrao tetrix / Lyrurus tetrix) is Orr, when the correct term in Swedish is Orre (with emphasis on the e). While Heller could have picked up a dialectical name (Orr'n or somesuch) or ancient pronounciation (Urr), it is all tings considered quite unlikely, in any case it is not standard Swedish.
If there is biographical support for a Swedish connection to the name, one might also add that Orre as in the bird is the second definition of the substantive in the authoritative SAOB: the primary definition is related to a mythological person, King Orre (Kung Orre), who was as far as I can tell named in various old sayings and jokes, the name seems to be connected to gambling and general adventurism that in the end pays off. This connection is suggestive, but also quite strained.
I'm not a registered user so I won't edit the main article, but this is probably something to edit out as far as I can tell.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.102.122.57 (talk) 17:51, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

message: What is the name of the specific British legislation involved here? The naming convention for UK Acts of Parliament is different from that in the US (where it is common to refer to legislation by reference to its sponsor).

message: This sentence doesn't make sense as written: "By 1928, the Stevenson Act was repealed, but not after expanding Dutch rubber plantations had successfully captured most of the rubber market in the United States. "

replies: text: Terry Pepper's well-documented data bases say the tower height is 107 feet, and the focal plane is 106 feet.  Maybe we should go with those numbers.  As noted in the article, there is a discrepancy with other sources.

Talk:Kidulthood

message: I think the last three sentences of the introduction should be revised or removed. They focus on the law-breaking aspects of the film and basically imply that the film is only, or nearly only, about these topics. It also has other major themes such as inequality, racial discrimination etc., which are not mentioned in the intro. The last sentence is particularly bad ("The film also showcases how the characters engage in recreational drug taking and some sexual behaviour"). I would suggest that these three sentences are replaced with a single sentence to the effect of:
"The film is notable for its candid portrayal of social deprivation including economic inequality, racism, antisocial behaviour, gang culture and drug use "

Talk:Siege of Takehana

message: I located an article, :ja:竹ヶ鼻城, which discusses a siege of Takegahana Castle by Hideyoshi in 1584. The castle is in Hashima, Gifu. Is that a different castle, or are these the same? Fg2 00:58, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've looked through it, and it does appear to be the same castle and the same siege. My book says "Takehana." Do you think I should move this article, or just provide an alternate name in the text? Thanks for the sleuthwork. LordAmeth 03:28, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmmm, that's not the matter I was thinking of, so I don't have a ready suggestion. Quite possibly both have been used. But the location is what struck me: Ise Province or Gifu Prefecture? I usually associate Ise Province with Mie Prefecture, and Gifu Prefecture with Mino Province, but I don't know the geography in enough detail to rule out the possibility that a corner of present-day Gifu might have once been in Ise rather than Mino. So, maybe Ise is correct? Fg2 04:47, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it appears that Mie Prefecture is considerably smaller than Ise province, and since Takehana/Takegahana was in the far north of Ise, it seems reasonable that it'd be in today's Gifu prefecture. I don't know much about Japanese geography, but based on the other information, such as the year it was sieged and the battles of Komaki & Nagakute which are related, I see no reason to think these are different castles. LordAmeth 11:57, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

"His obituaries ran from his native Wales to his adopted Provo, through every other place of literary prominence in between. His poetic voice was pure, authentic, and deceptively simple. He was great in a land of great poets. He was also a primary school teacher. And a headmaster. Though he went on to publicly prestigious things, he remained a teacher. He taught the most gifted creative writing students at BYU and helped launch their careers; he also read his stories and poems to countless school children."
