message: It can't be merged because jura stublić is a croatian rock legend and he is more that Film's singer
I agree. Jura Stublić played with Johnny Štulić in first lineup of Azra, not only in Film, and he is also a very important figure in Croatian music. Article about him should be expanded, not merged! (added a stub notice to Jura Stublić) I'm definitely against merging. --Dijxtra 12:35, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Charlotte von Mahlsdorf

message: As per request by RaF at Wikipedia:German-English translation requests: -
:Could someone take a look at it, because nor English, nor German is my native language. <RaF (also user 84.84.155.128)> <Augustus 27, 2005>.
I've done a fairly substantial re-write so I hope I haven't changed any of your intentions. The re-write was mainly to make the English read better, but there were a few changes where I think the translation was a little off. There were also a couple of sentences in the German that appear to have been accidentally missed. If it was your intention to leave these out, you may like to remove them again. There was one significant mistranslation - Charlotte did not disarm her father as per the previous translation, the German text states she beat him to death with his own gun (erschlagen = strike dead).
I also tidied the formatting slightly, clarified what the external references point to and removed the Tony Awards link as it is now out-of-date - it now lists the 2005 winners not the 2004 winners. Hope this is all OK. Valiantis 22:02, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Simonside Dwarfs

message: I think we should say that the word 'duergar' comes from the Norse 'Dvergar' or may be influenced by it. Reason is that the first part of the word 'due' sounds more like the English 'dwar' (as in Dwarrow and Dwarf) and may as well be spelt 'Dwargar'  or 'Dwerger' (infact, I have seen it spelt like this in Northumberland). The end part is the same 'gar' as the Norse version.
I am not saying that it doesn't come from 'dvergar', all I am saying is that it may actually be influenced as the common Old English (Middle English and Modern English) was similar anyway. Most words that were similar to Norse words ended up being influenced rather than replaced. 
I also find it odd that the Yorkish don't have this form of 'Dwarf' in their dialect also... King Óðinn The Aesir 16:39, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Salleman is right: duergar is simply the Old Norse cognate (normalised spelling: dvergar) of Modern English dwarves/dwarfs. In manuscripts and early printed books, u and v were used interchangeably. I've just added some comments on the "talk" page to the article Dwarf which are relevant to this article and to Simonside Hills. In a nutshell, the form and spelling of duergar betray it as a modern day (19th or early 20th century) antiquarian application of the Old Norse word to beings in English folklore; if the word had been inherited from a Viking Age loan, it would have undergone the same sound changes as Old English dweorg, the ancestor of our dwarf and the obsolete dwarrrow, etc. Dependent Variable 23:19, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Discrimination based on skin tone

message: Colorism assigns privileges based on skin tone: "Your skin is white! You should get the job!" In Asia, this is definitely not the case. What we have is skin-tone preference. People prefer non-tanned skin, as tanning has historically been associated with manual labor. If your skin is inborn darker, as with Indians, we completely ignore it. For example, you would expect Indians in Malaysia to occupy the lowest structure of society if Malaysians practice "colorism" since their skin color is darker than Malays and Chinese. However, Indians are amongst the highest earners. They earn far more than Malays and boast many billionaires (Ananda Krishnan, Syed Mokhtar Albukhary, etc. see List of Malaysians of Indian descent). Singapore would also never have figures like Vivian Balakrishnan, S.R. Nathan, and Kishore Mahbubani if we judge competence based on skin color. SMH2023s (talk) 05:39, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
