Talk:John Latham (judge)

message: Hi, I was just wondering why you chose to move John Latham (Australian jurist) to John Latham (jurist). The reason I ask is that this has created some double redirects from John Latham (Australia) (the original location, and the one I prefer). --bainer 04:46, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Disambiguation language should be as succinct as possible. (Australian jurist) is too much information....unless there was a (Canadian jurist) by the same name. John Latham (Australian) doesn't sound right...he is notable for being a Jurist, not for being Australian. Therefore, John Latham (jurist) is the most succinct and logical.

Thank you very much for puffing up this article! There's only one thing I'm a bit confused about: You changed the description of Rice Krispies that they are not puffed grain.

He was great.  I had put up the initial short version of the page at Dr. Don Rose - thanks for making the page really nice.  It is certainly fine to have the page as Don Rose with a redirect page at Dr. Don Rose.  If someone else adds a page about a different Don Rose, we can add a disambig. page, change this page to Don Rose (radio), and point the Dr. Don Rose redirect page to Don Rose (radio).

thread_title: VfD debate

message: Please refer to the M7 (which stands for Motorway 7) as a MOTORWAY. In the State of New South Wales, there is  distinction between the two. A motorway is a tollroad, while a freeway has no toll (it is FREE). Mattrix18 04:01, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I must admit that I hadn't noticed the mistake in this article. I think that you'll find that all freeways and tollways in NSW are presently being referred to by the state government as motorways. Seems to be either a consistency thing or a way of de-emphasising the fact that most are tolled. Perhaps we should try to put the end dates for tolling of every tollway in the respective article? --Athol Mullen 04:36, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

text: I agree. It is definitely a motorway. Freeways do not have to have no tolls. The Sydney-Newcastle_Freeway and Southern_Freeway previously had tolls and were always freeways. The government stopped calling roads freeways somewhere in the 90's. Robotboy2008 (talk) 04:23, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Prior to being called freeways and motorways, they were all expressways.  The F3 was an expressway when it was tolled, and was renamed as a freeway after the toll was removed.

message: In the series Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, Season 2, episode 11 makes obvious (if obfuscated) references to the Riding Club as well.  Most of the episode takes place in the US desert southwest, set during the JFK administration, and features an establishment called "Thunderclap Diner".  Inside and out, it resembles the Riding Club as depicted in The Right Stuff, and there is a wall of photos behind the bar (which one presumes are deceased test pilots).  The bartender therein resembles Pancho as in the movie, as well.

message: I'd like to thank the Arbitration Committee for accepting this case. I'm open to discussion of any aspect of this case. — Davenbelle 10:03, May 14, 2005 (UTC)
*There's little that I can add in the way of evidence; so far as I can see, Davenbelle has provided everything that I'd have done (though I'll check more carefully).  I do want, though, to express my support for Davenbelle in this process.  Trey Stone has a strong point of view which he pushes (and which he admits to pushing) on the articles that he edits; he is either unable or unwilling to see the difference between what is "obvious", "common sense", etc., and what is verifiable and aceptable in Wikipedia; and he is persistent in pushing his edits (as his numerous 3RR violations indicate).  He has little or no respect for Wikipedia policy and guidelines, and does whatever he can to subvert them in order to get his own way.  I hesitate to call anyone incorrigible, and I hope that he isn't — but he certainly comes close. Mel Etitis  (Μελ Ετητης) 10:35, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
