Talk:Regulation through litigation

message: The page correctly mentions separation of powers, but just about everything else is an incorrect straw-man description.  It needs complete rewriting.  
* The phrase is also used by supporters, such as Robert Reich; it's descriptive, not derisive. 
* Nothing about arguments against regulation through litigation suggests that courts shouldn't enforce the first amendment or seek to overturn unconstitutional laws.   Indeed, many liberals complain that some conservatives would use the Privileges and Immunities Clause, Commerce Clause, or the Contracts Clause to undo popular legislation. 
* The Brookings Institution bookstore sells Regulation through Litigation; this isn't just strict constructionists.
* There's no mention of the use of litigation to achieve results regulating industry that the democratic process has rejected, the main objection to the concept.
* There's no acknowledgement of the tort reform movement or class actions.  Someone reading this would think it's purely a debate of constitutional interpretation.
* Some other sources, readily available through a google search: , , 
* Brown v. Board doesn't belong in the article at all, but I'd note also that legal historians on all sides of the debate would strongly dispute the characterization of Brown v. Board as successful judicial activism.  Cass Sunstein, no radical rightist, argues persuasively to the contrary in that right-wing rag, The New Yorker.  The schools weren't desegregated until Congress acted.

Talk:Lucie Silvas

message: "Having been in the business for almost a year, Lucie has a UK tour, a platinum album and 4 top 40 singles already under her belt..."
Hasn't she been the business for at least six years seeing she recorded her first album in 2000?
"In 2003, Lucie was signed to Mercury Records, and given a long time to write her debut album, "Breathe In." " - Does "Forget Me Not" not count then? JP Godfrey 18:18, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The dutch article sais: "Ondanks het feit dat verschillende Engelse critciti voorspelden dat dit nummer de eerste nummer 1-hit voor Lucie Silvas zou worden, kwam de single zeer teleurstellend niet hoger dan nr. 38 in de Britse charts" which means that they predicted it to be a #1 hit, but it didn't reach higher dan #38.

Talk:Bibliography of cricket

message: Since the AfD debate has now been closed, I'll comment here on something that the AfD propent mentioned in withdrawing his nomination. Presumably the "incorrect" link was to Henry Bentley (writer), which has been altered to Henry Bentley (cricketer) on the grounds that he played first-class cricket. However, since today he is far better remembered as a writer than as a player, I can't see that the change is an improvement. JH (talk page) 20:18, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It was Bentley I had in mind. I found an entry for him in Cricket Archive and a further enquiry revealed that he was both player and writer. I accept your point that he is now known for his book but in Wikipedia terms he became notable by playing first-class cricket and it may be true that he would not have become a writer if he had not first been a player. Anyway, I have used the Cricket Archive information to create a stub for him. There is another Henry Bentley so it is necessary to disambiguate. --JamesJJames (talk) 06:05, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Henry Bentley 

message: One problem with this list, that no-one mentioned in the afD debate, is that it's really the summation of two lists. One is the "history" list, of works that add importantly to our knowledge of the history of the game. These may have no literary merit, and some of the earliest are no more than compilations of scores that would otherwise have been lost. The second list is the "literary" one, of works that are notable for the quality of the writing and/or the insights which they give into the characters of the players being written about. Cardus's works fall into this category, for example. These works can even be fictional (eg de Selincourt's The Cricket Match). JH (talk page) 21:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Very true but to split them would require a subjective view. Neville Cardus also wrote historical material and that has as much literary merit as his contemporary works. It is often said that Beyond a Boundary is the greatest cricket book and I would not disagree with that, but a large proportion of the book is historical so again a literary book has a foot in the history camp. John Nyren's book is essentially historical but it has literary merit also. Arthur Haygarth is essentially a compilation of scores but he also wrote biographies and other articles which could claim some literary merit. I think it is best to keep a single list. --JamesJJames (talk) 06:17, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Typeface

message: Shouldn't there be some reference to the association with Simcha and other positive things?
IMHO, at the very least, there should be a mention of the famous quote "MiSheNichnas Adar Marbim BeSimcha".
Maybe also a hint to the fact that Adar is considered an auspicious time for the Jews, per Rav Papa in Ta'anit 29.
Finally, it would be nice to see a reference to the statement by the Lubavitcher Rebbe to the effect that, during leap years, when we have 60 days of Adar in which to increase in joy and happiness, that all the negative and unwanted things should be "nullified in sixty" ("Batel BeShishim").
