Talk:Laurence Luckinbill

message: I've expanded the lead, separated Life and Career into sections, found more than the original 3 sources, did grammatical tidying, and plumped up the text a bit because it was feeling rather stubby. Still working on it. I'm thinking of getting a St Bernard keg to wear because it seems I like to rescue sad little articles and make them better. ScarletRibbons (talk) 00:00, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

message: At some point in the last couple of weeks, a paragraph listing honors for Maroney was deleted, and replaced with a sentence about Maroney and Dillon together.

The source you added is a primary source, which means it does show that the content is true, but doesn't necessarily mean that it is notable. If you can find a secondary source which says that Robertson is notable for his votes on gay rights, then feel free to re-add. Have a look at WP:SECONDARY for more information. Otherwise we could add every single vote of his to the article. Absolutelypuremilk (talk) 19:17, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Talk:List of German films of 1919–1932

message: As I was writing the first phases of this, early yesterday morning, some one was trying to break into my house. I'm being totally serius. A guy was trying to jack the front door open, dogs started barking, a couple of police cars showed up... all the while I was working on this page. Does that mean I have misplaced priorities, or am just calm under pressure?--Dudeman5685 04:41, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Just so you know...

message: Just a question... why are the directors in bold rather than the titles of the films?  Wouldn't it make more sense for it to be the other way around?  As it is now, when I casually scroll through this list all I see is "Directed by", "Directed by", "Directed by", etc.  Surely the words "Directed by" aren't more important than the title of the film? (!) -Esn 22:40, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's not too much trouble - yes, it would be much better.  Just have two columns, one for "director" and one for "title".  This would make it a lot easier for the readers, I think, to find what they were looking for.  I'd be willing to help convert the page, if you show me how to do it (perhaps by converting just the first section - it's a big task, obviously). Esn 20:42, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, I have another idea... why not make three columns, and in the third one (which would be on the right) have a short description of the film?  Many of these films don't have pages yet, and in any case it would be helpful for the reader to get a sense of why the film was important without having to visit the article.  Esn 20:46, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for being so interested. its already been done on the companion List of films made in the Third Reich page, but I wasn't the one who tabled it. I'll have to look up how exactly to make those.--Dudeman5685 05:12, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

text: I have already "tables" years 1921-23, but had difficulty, as it always showed up at the bottem of the screeen for some reason. The problems are well documented in the History, and you can go back and copy the tabled version from the History - edit pages. I've reverted to your last change for now.

Talk:Laurent Fignon

message: This section was tagged for expansion, with the edit summary: "article lacks info about parents, siblings, education etc."
I added information about his education. I also added information on how his parents reacted to Fignon's cycling ambition. Fignon was not so open about his private life; I read on a blog that in his autobiography, he mentioned his brother only once, and his marriage and children only when necessary. I can not find any reliable source that even says he has a brother, and the names of his parents are shown nowhere.
I think that the names of his parents are not important for this article, neither is the fact that he had a brother. It did not influence the things he was notable for in any way. For that reason, I think all expansion required has been added, and I remove the expansion tag. If I am incorrect, please put the tag back, and discuss here what more is needed. --EdgeNavidad (Talk · Contribs) 09:53, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Duewag

message: My Dad used to work there until they moved.
He told me they also did a lot of work for the ICE.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.132.242.235 (talk) 02:00, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

message: first of all, these GT6 were no EMUs (Electric Multiple Units), though later some of them were modified to become such (e.g. in Heidelberg). They often carried single- or double-truck trailers.
secondly, back when 592 was built, the company still used "DÜWAG" as its short name, from "Düsseldorfer Waggonfabrik". The "UE" form was later adapted for internationalisation.
I've made the appropriate changes to the article.
Also, the pictured TW6000 (which is an EMU), is from the 6100-series, which was manufactured by LHB. DÜWAG only built the first 100 cars numbered 6000-6099.
(I didn't change that, since they are quite similar, and DÜWAG did build trams that look similar (though there are technical differences)...

thread_title:  "DUEWAG EMU 592 of the Thüringer Waldbahn" 

message: Duewag is not the anglicised name of the company, but the name it traded under from 1981 in all markets including Germany. This is evidenced by:
*its German language website
*the name of the legal entity, Siemens Duewag Schienenfahrzeuge GmbH
*its builders plates both in English and German 
Even though the company uses all capitals, as it is not an acronym, the article should be named in proper English to comply with MOS:TMRULES. Breteinder (talk) 02:33, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Other staffers such as Mark Textor have articles, so I don't think being elected is the sole criteria. Ideally, someone will come up with something additional to establish WP:N.

Talk:Laurie Lynd

message: Looking at this stub, work could be done to reorganize it on both the "big-picture" level and the sentence level. Restructuring so that the films Lynd directed come in order would be useful. (e.g. instead of starting with Lynd's second film and then jumping to the first). Additionally, the final paragraph includes awards/nominations in a way that is unclear and disrupts the general flow of writing. Are there particular guidelines to how that kind of information is best documented in an article? Graphemie (talk) 06:23, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
