Talk:Offroad racing

message: I swapped around the redirects - Off-road racing was pointing here rather than vice-versa, which I thought was peculiar, since
#"offroad" isn't a word - both Merriam-Webster Online and Dictionary.com redirect to "off-road";
#There are 24.6 million Google hits for "off-road", but only 5.3 million for "offroad".
#More importantly, there are 742,000 Google hits for "off-road racing", but only 318,000 for "offroad racing" (and a polite query from the search engine "Did you mean off road racing?").
Seems daft to redirect the grammatically correct and more popular term. Being bold, I sorted this. -- DeLarge 16:58, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Inverness East, Nairn and Lochaber (Scottish Parliament constituency)

message: I imagine this list, the east of Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch, Strathspey and Lochaber, will become somewhat historic when ward and committee area boundaries change in April 2007. And I imagine the list refers to committee areas as they were in 1999. (I believe there have been some small changes already, since the unitary council was created in 1996, but I am not clear as to when current boundaries date from.) Also, I note that Stathspey seems to include an area out side the Badenoch and Stathspey committee area, outside the council area, and outside the constituency. Laurel Bush 17:01, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

I believe what is left of the wood is now privately owned and no longer named as such, however it seems a very plausible explanation as to the origin of the name.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Naykon (talk • contribs) 16:46, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Battle of Monte Porzio

message: I have a problem with all the talk of a "Roman" army and one of the sides in the battle being "Rome."  I suppose in sense this is strictly speaking true, but it's also confusing, as it summons up images of ancient Rome -- particularly confusing when the other side in the fight is the "Holy Roman Empire".  As near as I can tell from the article, the army in question actually answered to the Pope; it would be more correct to call it a "Papal" army, I think.  This has resulted in some incoherence on the front page right now. --Jfruh (talk) 03:32, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

message: This is the only article on the English Wikipedia that refers to caesarianos, it isn't the only one that refers to Milites, but apparently they ceased to exist 700 years earlier.

replies: text: Milites was just medieval Latin for "knight". I've clarified. (There were no "Byzantines" at Monte Porzio.) As for caesarianos, I can't figure it out, but it seems to be a Biblical phrase, from the Vulgate with which every medieval writer would have been familiar, meaning "[those] belonging to Caesar", in this case referring, I presume, to the troops who owed service to the emperor (caesar) as opposed to one of the great lords, or perhaps, in contrast with milites, who were not vassals of the emperor but owed service. I have copyedited the article to clear things up. Srnec (talk) 05:52, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

message: The section below "Account of the battle from the Monumenta Germanica Historica Scriptores SS., 20." looks pretty a bias against Romans (Italians).

message: http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/world/FO_USDX.html (linked from this article) contains a factual error: The right plate in the last row is from Sembach Airbase (near Kaiserslautern, Germany), not "Spangdahlem Airbase Bitburg".

message: I could be wrong here but in the very first hulk story, the Hulk is definatly grey in colour and portrays the viscious and manipulative traits of Joe Fixit. Also his changing from Banner relied upon the moon and not upon anger.
Is this not Joe Fixit's first appearance?
the green Hulk character/rage/strength thing occured some issues later on.
Am I right?
I would say that the two incarnations are one and the same.  When 'Joe Fixit' was introduced I believe he was introduced as 'The Return of the Grey Hulk' or someting to that effect.  Of course, I could be dreaming in Technicolor (or in this case, grey) and be completly wrong, so someome would have to confirm this.--RedKnight 20:26, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Stephen Fox's Transatlantic contains a detailed report of the sinking of Arctic. This article originally listed the date of Sept. 20 (with an alternative date of Sept. 27).

thread_title:  Sinking of Arctic 

message: The original introductory paragraph of this article listed as Catherwood’s greatest accomplishment that he gave credit to the Maya for building their own monuments. The problems with this assertion are multifold, namely: 1) It was not a common assertion that someone other than the Maya built the monuments. Until Stephens and Catherwood published their epoch-making volumes, 99.99 percent of the Western World knew almost nothing about the Maya. 2) If credit needs to be awarded, it belongs to John Lloyd Stephens who wrote about his belief the Maya built the monuments in Incidents of Travel, for which Catherwood provided the illustrations. Catherwood expressed the same belief in his Views of Ancient Monuments in Central America, Chiapas and Yucatán (London and New York: self published, 1844), but as he only printed 300 copies, its influence pales in comparison to Stephens’ words, of which hundreds of thousands of copies have seen print. 3) Stephens wasn’t even the first to express this idea. Diego de Landa said the same thing in his 1566 Relacion de Cosas de Yucatán (although it was not published until the second half of the 19th century). So I have rewritten it to reflect another opinion.  CoyoteMan31 18:55, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

message: As others have pointed out here, there are many elements of Lynch's career missing from this Bio.  I also find some of the content questionable.  Currently, I would only give this article a Start or B-Class rating.
I would suggest the following changes:
* Lynch's professional background should be broadened to include director as well as musician
* The article needs an infobox
* The article should include details about his directorial career (TV and film) with filmography
* An external link should be added to his artist's page on IMDB.com
* A section on collaborative projects with other artists/artist connections could be added to give the article more insight into the artist
* Lynch's work on Sifl & Olly could be broken out into its own section, or combined in a section covering his television/film work
* The article could be fleshed out with relevant quotes (with references) from the artist
* Category info should include Directors and Musicians
*I believe that Liam mentioned on one of his podcasts his irish heritage
Questionable content: 
* Article lacks citations/references, especially for quotes and content taken from other cites (i.e. interviews with the artist regarding career and illness)
* Is "binocularity of the eyes" a disability? Or is this Lynch's humor? (All normal humans have binocular vision.)
* Much of the content on this page seems to mirror the content on this site: http://www.omegarobot.com/LL.html
I can volunteer to clean up this article - would appreciate help from any other volunteers.
