<<His book, In Whose Name? The Islamic World after 9/11 (Thames and Hudson 2009), is a seven years quest within 16 countries : opposed by governments who hunt them mercilessly, the jihadists lose many battles, but are they not winning the war to control the mind of the people, with the "creeping islamisation" of all Muslim societies?>> 
needs to be rewritten in a more encyclopedic way that moves to a detached voice for the second part, rather than sounding like an opinion of the writer.

Talk:Abbey Simon

message: He toured Australia many times (I was lucky to catch some of his concerts) and he was always billed as a "master pianist".  No other pianists ever got this particular epithet, afaik.  Is this some technical term that has a particular meaning, or is it just his agent's spin?  --  JackofOz (talk) 07:42, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: "Master pianist"

message: I made this edit, which has been undone by an anon.  My reasons were:
* Abbey Simon has been hailed as a super-virtuoso whose appearances in the concert halls of the world are eagerly anticipated not only buy music lovers, but also by professional musicians who some to hear him spin his own particular magic.
:* This contains at least 2 spelling errors
::* buy > by
::* some > come.
:*But the main issue is that it's a piece of advertising puffery.  I’m not denying he’s a fabulous pianist, but it’s over the top and POV in terms of praise ("his own particular magic").  
* I also linked Carnaval, hardly a contentious action.
* Discs/disks – I can live with either spelling.  I'm restoring the rest of my edit. --  JackofOz (talk) 08:32, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Recent edit undone

message: The article as it formerly stood showed Simon's birth date as January 8, 1922, and a significant majority of sources listed in a Google search support 1922 as his birth year.  However, sources that give his birth year as 1920, although admittedly smaller by proportion, generally seem more reliable, if not indisputable.  These include Simon's published autobiography, Inner Voices, which states or implies 1920 consistently throughout; the 1930 U.S. Census (showing his age as 10); the 1940 U.S. Census (age 20); and a quoted review from The New York Times. Presumably, an agent or publicist subtracted two years from Simon's age when he was a youth (a common practice to make prodigies appear even more precocious), and the revised date was reprinted in publicity, short bios, encyclopedia entries, etc., repeatedly. 24.243.2.93 (talk) 20:44, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

message: Sorry to refute the main article, but in January 2000 while I was a financial advisor for MorganStanleyDeanWitter, Ms. Cohen appeared on the Louis Rukeyser's Business Report TV Show. At this time, the NASDAQ was still "raging" like a "rocket ship." When asked where she would invest at that time, she said only REITS and bonds. I couldn't believe it. However, she was correct, and DID accurately predict the subsequent crash of the equity market, which began 2 months later.

Talk:Abd Al Aziz Awda

message: I have made a large edit to the article adding various details about Awda's life. There are some areas that I do think need expanding or revising, but I do not have the skills to do so.
# His life after 2000: It seems that most sources about Awda's life after 2000 are in Arabic, which I cannot read, speak, or understand. I don't want to put misinformation in an article because Google Translate is bad (and it definitely didn't seem good based on how it rendered the Arabic Wikipedia article on Awda). It would probably be a good thing to include materials about his life after 2000 aside from the indictments (which isn't really "his life").
# Expert revision: I am probably about as knowledgeable on the Middle East and especially Palestinian history as the average Wikipedian, which is far below expert. I do not know for certain who are and are not the best authorities to cite aside being confident that Skare, Abu-Amr, and Hatina are "good". Obviously someone who knows their stuff about this topic will be able to more easily sort the wheat from the chaff, and if there is chaff, find some wheat to replace it or revise the article accordingly.
# Arabic transliteration of his name: As mentioned before I cannot read Arabic and I do not know how to render his name in IPA or in the manner in which most biographical articles do. I also have no idea if the alternate bolded names are actually the alternate spellings he is well-known by (they were there before the edit). The sources give a ton of different spellings aside from Awda: Auda (the spelling Abu-Amr uses), Odeh, Uda, etc.

message: This article previously claimed that "The words were written by Harold Spiro" on a record released in 1976, sourced to a dead reference on streaming site popmusic4synch.com, which looks like it would have been just showing the metadata from wherever it got its information.
I've updated the source to https://www.discogs.com/release/6444425-Hoagy-The-Terrace-Choir-The-Last-Football-Song, which says 1984 and has a photo of a label showing that year, as well as crediting the song to "(P.D.)

Talk:Abdel Aziz El Mubarak

message: This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it.  Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed.  I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy.  In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright.  If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed, feel free to ask me on my talk page and I'll review it personally.  Thanks. ---J.S (t|c) 07:18, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Hero of the Day

message: I believe the description of the video is incorrect in the part where it says that the protagonist and his girlfriend "later have sex". They don't, that is the point of the video: the protagonist couldn't have an arousal. It is obvious at 2:58 mark of the video (the version which is featured on the official Metallica YouTube channel, see here), where it can be seen that the protagonist takes a look at his crotch, lifting up the rim of his pants, as if to see whether his penis is aroused; then he leans back in the bed, visually disappointed (). Also note that his pants are on, and his girlfriend's underwear is also still on; then she quickly gets dressed and leaves, and the protagonist, feeling down and confused, keeps on drinking liquor, takes some pills, and passes out. 
I strongly believe that this scene is crucial exactly because it touches upon the protagonist's impotence, which can be seen as the culmination of the first part of the video; then the strange robotic creatures leave his head, which can be seen as a departure of the bad thoughts and addictions, the source of his misery, leaving him a true "hero of the day".
Hence I propose to change that part of the description of the video "Music video" section which tells about them "having sex" in such way that it would incorporate the changes described by me above. Ronniesafarov (talk) 22:48, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
