Talk:Queets River

message: This article reads a heck of a lot more like a tourist guide than an encyclopedia. It needs sections, and should have info on the course of the river, it's ecology, and geology. Murderbike (talk) 23:32, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep. I've just made a quick stab at improving it. I added sections, but it could still use more content on the course. The geology I don't know much about, but I've read interesting things about its ecology and hydrology... like things to do with its high winter flood surges and log jams. Apparently its log jams are studied to learn about how many rivers in the region, especially the Puget Sound region, historically behaved, before forest clearing and river channelization, etc. I don't have time to look up this stuff now, I'll try later. I removed some of the recreational details, like those having to do with trail and campground access, "news" now more than two years old. I also removed the claim that the river's discharge "occasionally exceeds that of the Columbia". The max discharge according to the USGS was 91,100 cfs. The Columbia's average discharge is 265,000 cfs. I also removed the claim that the Queets River is mentioned in the Treaty of Olympia. The treaty text is online here and elsewhere, and I see no mention of the Queets. Pfly (talk) 06:11, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm a bit concerned that this profusion has taken place without much discussion from editors who work on these articles. Some articles could conceivably be tagged with 3 or 4 of these templates: indeed, Wicca already has three. I mean no criticism of the creators of the templates - but I suggest that this should be discussed centrally so that there is a degree of uniformity in articles within the same family.

Talk:Zed Seselja

message: The comment about Zed's early life (first added here ) - that he recalls from childhood being called black - has been removed for a second time  and it should remain unmentioned in the article. 
While the comment is sourced to this Canberra Times article, the article does not make an observation about Zed Seselja's appearance like "relatively swarthy complexion" -- this is not neutral comment. Given this and the statement's general relevance (not much -- its a one-liner from a newspiece and not generally relevant to his biography or the surrounding statements in the wiki article), it should stay removed.
I support re-adding the children's ages as they are sourced, but generally caution against including too many (although sourced) factual tidbits about Mr Seselja's parents unless the article finds a way to weave their relevance to Mr Seselja more aptly. Remember that the article is about him and while a detailed work history for him may be relevant, one for his parents maybe not so.

Talk:Architectural engineer (PE)

message: I am not aware of the profession being represented in Europe. However, comparing to CIAT's definition of a Chartered Architectural Technologist MCIAT, I find many similarities with the Architectural Engineer in the United States.
It seems that the US have architectural engineering technologists, but the article claims that this profession is limited to a draughtsperson responsibility. If so, it does not represent the role of a MCIAT who has a statute similar to the architect with an approach focussed on science and technology rather than aesthetics.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Christophe Krief (talk • contribs) 00:33, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Noon Meem Danish

message: :
:"Noor Mohammed, more commonly known as Noon Meem Danish or N.M. Danish born in 1958 in Karachi, Pakistan, is a Pakistani poet of African and Baloch descent. He was raised in a working class family in Lyari, a largely Baloch neighbourhood, which he describes as "Karachi's Harlem".
:He did his early education at the Okhai Memon School in Kharadar, and began writing poetry in 1974. His African appearance often led people around him to assume he was a foreigner; he describes being asked frequently where he was from and why he spoke Urdu so well. After receiving his master's degree in Urdu from the University of Karachi in 1984, he began teaching at the Urdu College.
:Bachay, Titli, Phool, his first collection of poems, was published in 1997. He quickly garnered recognition for the anger he expressed through his works, in which he often made reference to his experiences as a member of the African diaspora; his work attracted the attention of leading Urdu critic Shamsur Rahman Farooqi, who had them published in Indian literary journal Shabkhoon."

Also, a point about the regional operator templates (i.e the ones like this). The London Buses routes one was proposed for deletion as all the links linked to different part of one article. We'd have to be careful if the regional templates did this, as the London Buses one has now turned into some humongous monstrosity that just gets in the way of everything and defeats the purpose of it (to put it mildly!).

Given that Slott didn't start his career in comics until years after Kraven's Last Hunt was published, I don't see how he could have firsthand knowledge of its writing. Moreover, the tone of his post is noticeably argumentative (he opens the section in which he makes the claim with "That's a very flowery, over-the-top retelling of what actually happened."), and in my experience people arguing on message boards have a tendency to stretch the truth.

Template talk:PD-Italy

message: The page currently reads in part:
:it is not under United States copyright if it was first published between January 1, 1923 to 1977 and ...
First, this is ungrammatical: it's from/to or between/end.  Also, if 1923 is set off by a comma, it needs one after it as well (alternatively, another date format could be used).
Second, it doesn't make sense to quote the start date as a day and the end date only as a year.  Is it meant to mean January 1, 1977 (repeating the date already given), or December 31, 1977 (implying that the whole year is included)?  Are the dates meant to be inclusive or exclusive, or one of each?
Third, I don't know why the start date is being given anyway. Isn't everything that was published before 1923 public domain in the US in any case?
I'm not touching this, as it is a legal notice and I'm not suitably qualified.  But someone who knows the relevant law needs to fix it so it clearly says the right thing.
