Talk:Athar Minallah

message: This seems to be a rather dubious and poorly written and referenced article, possibly written by the subject or someone close to the subject. It contains many self-promotory words and sentences and reads like fan mail more than anything else. Also, very bizarrely, it contains more material about the purported family history/background of this subject rather than material about the subject himself. Almost all of this information is of a 'peacock' nature and totally unreferenced. I would strongly recommend that this article either be rewritten entirely in a brief, clear and objective way, with an adequate number of acceptable/reliable references; or else, simply be deleted. Thank you 39.54.207.44 (talk) 02:13, 14 June 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Peter Andrews (agricultural pioneer)

message: I placed an  tag on this page. The sources given are all very sympathetic, and the reasons for criticism and rejection of his ideas are not given. Also, re this claim:
:"Amongst his many converts are retailer Gerry Harvey and Australian Deputy Prime Minister John Anderson."
Harvey is certainly a supporter. However, based on this recent Australian current affairs program (in-browser video, November 11, 2007), John Anderson only visited once and has not shown support for Peter Andrews' work. Of course, I don't trust the current affairs program when it didn't show any substantial footage of Anderson talking about Andrews and his work, but a clear citation for this claim is needed. 
Btw, I also created a page on Appropedia (the sustainability wiki), Appropedia:Natural Sequence Farming. Appropedia is not an encyclopedia page, and does allow for discussion, comparison, questions, analysis of ideas and detailed project writeups. --Chriswaterguy talk 06:19, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Tapani incident

message: I've noticed that the English version of this article is quite short.  I've glanced over the corresponding article in Chinese, and it seems like the Chinese article is rather longer.  Unfortunately, I don't speak Chinese, much less read it, so if anyone can read Chinese, have a look if you could, and maybe transfer some of the info from Wikipedia Chinese over to Wikipedia English- that'd be smashing.

Talk:Sawar Khan

message: The birth date was inserted here unsourced in 2014, then he died in 2023 and the journalist obviously with 99% probability copied it from here, I've seen the same a thousand times. No non-primary/non-official source should ever be accepted for an information that was earlier in Wikipedia. Mewulwe (talk) 22:57, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: "the journalist obviously with 99% probability copied it from here". This is speculative. You're essentially accusing a media outlet of not checking information before publishing it. Obviously the media outlet had a source for his death in the first place, so the information in their article wasn't just "copied from Wikipedia". If you're going to come out with such outlandish accusations, you need evidence. Otherwise the source passes WP:RS and thus can be used to cite his date of birth. --Jkaharper (talk) 01:52, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't say the journalist copied his entire article; he copied the birth date, which is part of the background information separate from the news of his death. We know that journalists even in the most reputable outlets like BBC have copied from Wikipedia. Lesser sources have no idea of "checking information" from Wikipedia whatsoever, as is obvious from the fact even literal Wikipedia wordings are routinely copied, see for example this Pakistani obituary saying "Mumtaz Ali Khan Bhutto was a Pakistani politician who served as 8th Governor of Sindh..." - always a telltale sign when someone's nationality is mentioned in that very nation where this would be the default. The fact that they don't bother to even edit such a lifted sentence implies they haven't checked the facts either (and sure enough, the "8th" therein is a complete Wikipedia invention). So my "speculation" is well-founded. It would be outlandish to take the opposite default assumption in such cases, where it is impossible to prove that the information was copied from Wikipedia. This would invite citogenesis on a massive scale. Mewulwe (talk) 08:33, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Connecticut Route 229

message: This article mentions how 229 was originally to be a four lane highway, two lanes in each direction. The article mentions how this was abandoned for a standard two lane road. I'm not aware of when this was changed, however, as of December 8, 2012, the road has two lanes travelling in each direction from I-84 to at least Route 72 in Bristol. I believe the four lane road continues further north, and it does narrow to a two lane road, but I am not sure specifically where. --hmich176 07:44, 10 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  topology 

message: A quibble but the area is only non-contiguous across land. The county boundaries touch in Puget Sound so, technically, Snohomish is contiguous with Kitsap, and with Island, so there is continuity. - Brianhe (talk) 05:45, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess that depends on your definition of "contiguous". Per Contiguity#Geography, "Political or geographical land divisions that, as a group, are not interrupted by other land or water are contiguous." What definition are you using? - BilCat (talk) 06:02, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Snohomish County is not interrupted by water from Kitsap County because Puget Sound is approximately half in one county and half in the other. In other words, there is no water separating the two counties except that which is in one county or the other. There is no other land or water thus no interruption. - Brianhe (talk) 06:10, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the point of the comment is that the land doesn't touch directly. But if it's that much of an issue to you, then remove it as an unsourced claim/original research. Trying to clarify it to include the land part would only open it up for another semantic quibble yet to be thought of. - BilCat (talk) 06:30, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Lee Abrams

message: In the bio of Lee Abrams, the following is noted:
"Lee has been instrumental in the relaunch of cable channel WGN America and the newspapers owned by Tribune, convincingly demonstrating his radio producing and programming skills."
First, the general rule on Wikipedia is to refer to subjects by their last name (unless they have a better known identity, such as Elvis Costello or Enya)in second and subsequent references. "Lee" is a bit too breezy and familiar.
Second, the note that Abrams' work with Tribune is "convincingly demonstrating his radio and programming skills" is a statement that has no sourcing of proof (such as ratings or circulation numbers) and is nothing more than an empty plaudit without factual backup. And, it also wafts into the non-sequitur range; how does his work with Tribune be construed as "convincingly demonstrating" his radio skills in dealing with a cable channel and newspapers?

message: In the article, it is claimed that "He has also consulted and even managed such notable acts such as Yes, The Moody Blues, Steve Winwood, Iron Maiden, Bob Seger and EMI Records."
EMI Records is not a "notable act." It is a record label.
Furthermore, the reference given is to an article about Abrams working at XM Radio. I couldn't find any mention of any of those notable acts (including EMI) in the Wired article.
His personal biography, however, does mention that "Among his clients have been The Moody Blues, Yes, Steve Winwood, Iron Maiden, Bob Seger and EMI Records." Having these entities as "clients" is significantly different from managing them.
