Talk:Quentin Durward

message: "Although the storyline is somewhat cliché, the novel is worth reading for anyone who has an interest in Medieval history or Scottish and French culture." It's an exaggeratedly subjective comment. There may be room for it in a Lit class or a criticism book but not in an encyclopedia.

message: Got to be start as there are no references. This is very important if this is going to be a "good" article. Good quantity of information. A number of alumni - one very well known.

thread_title: Schools Assess

message: This article needs to be placed within context. For an institution that has been around since the 19th century it gives very little history of the school. The whole article reads like a cut and paste from the RCDS school brochure. Do we really need to know every single course,sport, and club the school offers? Is it necessary to give the names of all current class officers? This smacks of self-promotion. The notable alum section is largely unsourced and dubious. I've deleted the notable teachers section. The fact that Margaret Hamilton was a kindergarten teacher at RCDS is trivia at best. Mr. Tafe helped write a Latin textbook some decades ago and is hardly notable, nor is Ted Lawrence an unremarkable retired minor league baseball player who now happens to coach at RCDS.

Talk:Underlight

message: I deleted several of the old comments and most of what seemed to be issues with Oogle and previous edits. After reading the deletion thread, I think its clear that the original page lacked the Encyclopedic Nature that Wiki requires.
So from reviewing the deletion thread and communication with Koi, it appears the main issue is having reviews of the game or third party sources discussing the game's creation. Instead of personal websites. Looks like the main goals are referencing/citing the PC Gamer Mag Article; 1UP Review and Computer Gaming World as WP:VG/RS. So then the article just needs to be re-written with factual sources linking to the creation sections. 
I think a starting point is to use a comparative "approved" online game from the time period and use similar styling, that should get you to a basic starting point. (for example: EverQuest or Ultima Online)

Talk:XXXXVIII Panzer Corps

message: Any court in the World today would judge the actions of the Soviet Commissars as criminal.  Stalin admitted killing nine million non-communists when he met Churchill. I believe it was Lenin who stated he did not mind killing 90% of Russians provided the remaining 10% were communist. The Soviets were not party to any treaty regarding conduct during warfare. We are now aware that Stalin planned to invade Europe through Germany but that Hitler preempted Stalin's attack. History should be updated.

Talk:.localhost

message: IMO this needs some rewording, as for the purpose of name resolution, there is no real difference between the top-level domain localhost and the entry in the hosts file. The only difference is that a DNS query will not return the hosts entry. But there is just one name: localhost, and it should resolve to 127.0.0.1 and/or ::1, regardless of whether this is done by a resolving library consulting the hosts file, or by a DNS query where every DNS server (caching or authoritative) is supposed to return 127.0.0.1 and ::1 as well.
For comparison: I can also enter *any* other name in my local hosts file, e.g.:
192.168.0.46    com
192.168.0.47    co.uk
192.168.0.48    www.microsoft.com
and the resolver will return those IP addresses when queried. Any other names will still result in DNS queries. localhost is just another such name. The only difference is that the standards specify to what addresses localhost are supposed resolve, and that *.localhost should not be entered in the DNS system at all. *.localhost can still be entered in the hosts file though, or in a local DNS server. The following is perfectly valid:
127.0.0.1       ipv4.localhost localhost
::1             ipv6.localhost localhost
127.0.0.2       2.localhost
127.0.0.3       3.localhost
127.0.0.4       4.localhost
So, IMO, the only real confusion is the reasoning that 'localhost' and '.localhost' seem different, so they must be different.
Maybe this article should even be merged into the localhost article ? RogierA7 (talk) 12:00, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

This doesn't look right. On the one hand, the discovery was made by a grad student working under Jennifer Clack. That gives the story a lot of weight. However, it needs to be put into context. Paleontologists have been looking into this question for decades. The latest discovery is just one among hundreds of pieces of evidence (on both sides of the debate). Every tetrapod that isn't 100% terrestrial is considered to have *possibly* had a more terrestrial ancestor, but these are just possibilities unless there is compelling evidence.
