replies: text: Neutrality has its own meanings.  -- SCZenz 11:25, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

text: The fact that "neutrality" is the noun corresponding to "neutral" in English doesn't mean you can use it in all contexts where you can use the adjective.  There is no meaning to a "neutrality" alignment in D&D, a wire with "neutraility", or particle "neutrality".  And I would bet, though I don't know for sure, that the Native American group is called "Neutral" and not "Neutrality" as well.  So if I put a link to neutral in a particle physics article, and the disambig page talks about neutrality, that is silly. -- SCZenz 13:14, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: That's not my area and I don't know what is the best way to deal with these topics, but from reading the articles it seems that Indian epic poetry has a much broader scope: it subsumes not just the Itihasa but also other Sanskrit epic poetry (Mahakavya) as well as epic poetry in the traditions of other Indian languages. The whole topic area could do with some tidying up but I don't see the case for a merge. As for the redirects, that's well spotted!

Category talk:Field marshals of Nazi Germany

message: An anon operating as  or  has tried twice to get this category deleted. The first time was in May 2005 by creating :Category:Field Marshals of Germany, recategorizing all articles, and then placing a CFD on this category. It was subsequently decided to keep this category, but to sub-cat it under the new one. (See the CFD log). The second time was in September 2005 by recategorizing all articles in this category and then marking this category as a speedy deletion candidate. The ensuing deletion was undone three days later by me. Other edits this person did (e.g. , , ) clearly betray his agenda. Lupo 07:37, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

message: uh, John Saunders is Canadian, or at least he said during a Stanley Cup telecast that he was raised in Montreal.
Can someone PLEASE clean up the "Controversies" section?  The part about Tyrone Willingham can remain as notable, but the viewpoint presented here comes across as an embittered, partisan complaint -- not as objective analysis.  I see that someone did a clean-up, but this was reverted to the mess that currently remains.  I presume that the revert was by a Wikipedian who has taken this page under their wing, but I think here the cure's worse than the disease: the current version is awful.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.76.221.58 (talk) 02:48, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

message: It looks like this stub should be merged with the "keshava namas" article. There is a significant overlap between the two articles. The "keshava namas" article is a more general description of the names of Vishnu, while the "Keshava" stub is just a brief description of that name. The length of the "keshava" stub is small enough that merging wouldn't significantly change the "keshava namas" article.

replies: text: just completed a major revamp of this article; though the extent of the changes shouldn't imply any criticism of the article as it stood. It's just a subject that has held my attention for many years and I thought it deserved a lengthy treatment. I need to tidy up an image or two (eg my photo in the bridge rebuilding section - I put labels on it pointing to "pylon 19" - this needs to be revised as there is no pylon 19 anymore.) Not sure whether I've added too much about "social effects". I guess local editors will address that + other issues. GlenDillon 18:06, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: added project templates and gave article a C rating. Its the first time I've rated an article and perhaps I should be be more conservative with my assessment etc etc, still, it seems to exceed the criteria for "Start class" and has features in common with C class articles in the Australia project.

The problem is that Meikle's willows handbook doesn't mention Salix euxina, which I believe was named by Irena Belyaeva after he died. We need a good reference for this.

message: The article says Of the eleven Amtrak stations in Massachusetts, North Station was the third busiest in FY2010, behind only South Station and Back Bay Station, boarding or detraining an average of approximately 1,150 passengers daily.[4] It is one of the twenty-five busiest stations in the Amtrak system.
This is deceptive. This heavy traffic is due to the short distance commuter trips, it is not due to Amtrak usage out of this station. There is a single Amtrak itinerary leaving this station.Dogru144 (talk) 04:54, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Nope, they're correct as is. Those Amtrak passenger counts and rankings are explicitly due to Amtrak ridership only. 1150 daily is about 420,000 annually; I just updated to FY2012 numbers which is 1298 daily / 473,000 annual. Those are on the low end of the Amtrak Top 25 linked from the article.

The station was made large and ostentatious  years prior to the middle of the 20th century because of the large volume of passenger traffic, including to locales in different states and Canadian provinces.
