Talk:Messianic Seal of Jerusalem

message: Per much discussion elsewhere, such as Holiest sites in Islam, tour-guide type websites are usually not considered reliable sources. It should not be too hard to find better sources. Sorry. -- Avi 05:55, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Tour websites 

message: The recent additions to the article are inappropriate for a number of reasons:
#They are based on sources that do not meet wikipedia's requirements for verifiability and reliability. For example, all of the following have issues with acceptability, as they are all self-published blog-like sources:
#*http://www.goodnewsforisrael.org/
#*http://www.gnfi.org
#*http://www.threemacs.org/
#*http://www.biblediscoveries.com/
#*http://tsiyon.org/
#The additions were all copyright violation cut-and-pastes of various websites
#The additions were all patently unencyclopedic in tone
#There is enough criticism that the seal is a hoax that any additions, pro or con, need ironclad sources.
#*http://www.imja.com/Gershon2.html
#*http://fp.thebeers.f9.co.uk/messianic_seal.htm

thread_title:  low importance 

message: This was left on my user page: Why did you delete my edit on the Delco County Christian website? Do you feel that Dan Visser is not a significant alum? Even if you are not a fan of athletics, I feel that you should have let my edit there. Thank you. 
This was presumably in reference to my removing the following: One famous athletic alum of DC is Daniel Visser. He went onto win 3 consecutive NCAA division 3 national championships with Messiah College. In his final season, he was placed on the All-Region team. He was then planning to play with the Harrisburg City Islanders, a professional soccer team in the USL Division 2 until he tore his ACL.
My general policy on including notable people in school and locality articles is that the person should either already have their own article here, or else be clearly notable as shown by a reference to a reliable source - see WP:NN for the notability guidelines. I also note that WP:BLP says unsources material on living persons can be removed by anyone. This is unsourced, the person has no article here, and the level of detail seems excessive - what does a torn ACL have to do with this school? I also think that the person (who is probably a great guy and very nice) is not notable enough as an athlete to have an article here (I am also not notable enough for my own article).
If anyone wants to write a well-sourced article on him and then add him in as a notable alum, feel free to do so. Until then, he stays out, hope this makes it clearer Ruhrfisch  ><>°° 04:42, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ethnicity of Samuel German? 

message: From the article: "It owes its name to an English-American chocolate maker named Samuel German, who developed a formulation of dark baking chocolate that came to be used in the cake recipe. Sweet baking chocolate is traditionally used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake, but few recipes call for it today."
This is hard to understand.  The original recipe calls specifically for "Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate"  http://www.yesterdish.com/2013/03/11/germans-chocolate-cake/  and when I google for "german chocolate cake recipe", a majority of the first results call for either "Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate", "German's Sweet Chocolate" or "Sweet Baking Chocolate".  
The wording from the article seems to say that few of the recipes today call for sweet baking chocolate, when in fact most of them do.  I think the author was trying to say that the original recipe called for German's brand, but many recipes today do not state a brand and just say "sweet baking chocolate".

thread_title: Needle Tatting

message: Let's not be too dogmatic or 'precious' about the early use of needles in tatting. Needles were used with a similar motion to that of shuttles - tatting 'with' a needle. [The C20th contemporary process of making loops directly onto even-shanked needles - tatting 'on' a needle.] A shuttle is only a convenient implement for storing many metres of thread, so why be preoccupied with the shuttle?
Tatters still use sewing/tapestry needles on occasions to tat. To de Haan-van Beek illustrates tatting 'with' a needle in her book (Eng.trans.) 'New Dimensions in Tatting'. Elgiva Nicholls quotes Mlle Riego regarding using a netting needle when making early picot joins. (Tatting: technique & history, 1984 repub, p. 27). The use of a sewing needle is illustrated on p. 3 of 'Frivolitatenarbeit' by Brigitta Hochfelden.
I know you want chapter and verse for every quote about tatting, but sometimes reading very old patterns will give you clues as well.
