Talk:Aquarius Festival

message: I do not think category:music festival alone is appropriate. It downplays the festival. Category:cultural festival is as close as a sub-category gets. I believe category:festival to be the most appropriate of the categories available.- Seasalt 00:24, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Category

message: The second sentence of this article currently reads: "The first NUAUS festival was held in Sydney ca 1966,[1] while the second, Melbourne, third in Canberra and last (Aquarius) was held in Nimbin, New South Wales in 1973."  The footnoted cite really is about the third festival, and doesn't mention the first.  I'm going to change the sentence based on my personal involvment in the first of the series of festivals.  Unfortunately, I can't find a decent cite for this on the Web.  GilesMartin1945 (talk) 19:41, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Kitkatla

message: With not enough time at the moment to tease out and add the relevant info to this page, I just added this book by Galois as "further reading". It has quite a bit of information about the early encounters between the Kitkatla and the British (and Spanish), including not only ship logs and journals but collected oral histories. Unfortunately it is ridiculously expensive, but at least some libraries have it. Bits of it are online at Google Books, and the whole 70-some page introduction is online at its UBC Press webpage. Perhaps worth a look for anyone interested in the topic. Pfly (talk) 04:01, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Qwepasdl (talk) 21:01, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Updated Copyright Image Information

message: I want it to be clear from the onset that although the current version of this article has many problems, in my opinion The Revols as a group merit this article in Wikipedia. Quite frankly, the recent edits read like a draft that someone might write in an attempt to put a book 'pitch' together for a potential publisher, in my opinion, both the tone and large portions of the current content are at present unencyclopedic. At present, the article seems very slanted toward promoting the purported influences and contributions of certain individuals and it is impossible to sort it out without proper referencing and footnotes from reliable sources included in the article. Rather than plaster it with citation request tags (which other editors may do anyway) I'd like to give the contributor a chance to do some cleanup work themselves on the article. Please don't just give up, remember even properly referenced newspaper and magazine articles are sufficient to bolster the reliability factor, there's obviously someone out there who has a wide knowledge of the circumstances surrounding this band, what's needed are reliable third party sources and a change in 'tone'. At present, as "The Hawk" might say, "this dog won't hunt". Don't give up. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 05:55, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Recent Revisions

message: An editor added Promotional, Here-say, and non historical information, and praises of the Band's Manager, and turned the article into, "More claim's to this fame" with no reference material, or published quotes added. It seems as though an agent for the Band's previous Manager, added all of these edits, as they were all about Dave Michie, whom is already credited in the article, on an historical basis, and the new edits were all about, "What a great Job" he did, and how it was "His connection" and "His Ideas" that propelled the band. This is not a neccisary edit, and I have reverted the article, back to it's much smaller, but much more "Encyclopedic" version. I'll also be adding, that the City of Stratford, will be dedicating their Band Shell, in Upper Queens Park, to it's Stratford Resident members of The Revols. Ken Kalmusky, John Till, and Richard Manuel. I will NOT however, be writing about "Who's idea it was". Qwepasdl (talk)  —Preceding undated comment was added at 03:58, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Loch Morar

message: Thanks for producing this interesting article, I was intrigued that it said the Loch was created during the Loch Lomond Readvance - a relatively short period to create this over-deepened glacial trough. An initial search, did not help my query, but The Geology of Scotland gives more detail, stating that at least 67,000 years of glacial erosion was needed. It may be that the terminal moraine at the end of the loch was created at the end of the Readvance, which may be the source of the confusion. Snippet views suggest that this altered the drainage of the lake. Maybe the article needs to separate the creation of the trough or basin in which it sits, and the formation of the lough itself...Jokulhlaup (talk) 21:08, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: There's some ambiguity about what the loch would have looked like before the most recent glacial action - all that the ref says is "have left their imprint," and I tried to reflect this in the article, although maybe "created" was too bold. Something like "The trough has been gouged out by glacial forces over many thousands of years, the most recent period of glaciation having been the Loch Lomond Stadial." might be better. I don't know much about geology, so could be wildly wrong about anything. Jamesx12345 21:37, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for responding, that ref is a bit vague, as is the 'Glaciation of the Loch Morar Area' page. My knowledge is also limited, so will do dome more searching...Jokulhlaup (talk) 16:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

That way the "External Links" section could be reduced by moving URLs into a footnotes section (ie, "References"). This would benefit the article doubly because in general, bigger "References" sections and smaller "External Links" sections both make articles less likely to be deleted.--gwc 08:39, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks a lot for doing the merge. Now for cleanup. This looks like it was someone's school paper--it has way too much detail for an encyclopedia article. If no one objects, I'm going to pare it down considerably in the next few days. For example, do we really need to know what software the newsroom uses? Most newsrooms use AP style, is this particularly notable? This is more an essay on "what a newspaper is" than an article about the Mail Tribune.
