Talk:Soviet war crimes

message: This article was recently moved to "Soviet crimes against humanity" with the rationale, "" This was a controversial move, that should have gone through WP:RM#CM. The rationale that was given in the edit summary is exactly right but argues *against* the move that was made, not for it. Crimes against humanity are a subset of war crimes, and may be covered in this article, or, the topic could be covered briefly in this article summary style as a parent article summary, with a separate child article about Crimes against humanity containing most of the detail. If you disagree, please follow WP:RM#CM and start a discussion proposing a new title.  Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 07:18, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

message: Crimes against humanity is a specific legal concept. In order to be included in the category, the event (s) must have been prosecuted as a crime against humanity, or at a bare minimum be described as such by most reliable sources. Most of the articles that were formerly in this category did not mention crimes against humanity at all, and the inclusion of the category was purely original research.

Talk:Salvatore Ferragamo

message: In the first paragraph, it is stated that one of Ferragamo's most noteworthy contributions to movie fashion were the ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz. However, the article on the ruby slippers credits the designer Adrian. Did Ferragamo actualy design the specific shoes, or did Adrian just use a pair of pre-existing Ferragamo heels? 
If the Wizard of Oz thing isn't correct, I would probably mention instead that Ferragamo practically invented the wedge, and reinvented the platform of the 40's.

message: cage heel is unbeknowst to me (also not in wictionary and not having its own dedicated artice in WP) but, a quick search for pictures shows it is just high heels. i dont think this one needs to be described as an unusually scientific invention, it is more along the lines of fashion. wedhe heel is a high heel essentially, but with the whole length of the sole forming a wedgeso you cant look through under the shoes. this doesnt seem either to call for scientific as a specifically announced attribute. so what about deleting the word "scientific" from the article? or it could be put in the article if it is used by a notable source saying that Salvatore Ferragamo was widely thougt of as a (fashion) designer of a "scientific approach". unless it is in a quote, i dont think scientific should be applied here. 89.134.199.32 (talk) 14:54, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: being bold i did delete "his scientific approach" from the lede, since theres nothing substantiate the claim of "scientific" approach about high heels. if ou have a quote for this, plase feel free to put it in the article as something said by someone about the designer of high heels. as an objective description however it should not be used as it is confusing. 89.134.199.32 (talk) 13:12, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Talk:The Wild Wild West

message: It is a very common phrase in Britain, not obscure, it referred to the few traditional analogue television channels rather than the many digital channels that later existed, it referred to them in that way when digital started. Now it refers to those of the all digital channels that used to be those few analogue channels before analogue broadcasting ended.

thread_title:  In answer to 'Obscure Britishism' 

message: While the the series was vaguely set during the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant (1869–77). there were episodes that gave a more precise date.
* "The Night of the Glowing Corpse" is set during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–1.
* "The Night of the Eccentrics" takes place four years after the execution in 1867 of Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico.
* In "The Night of the Brain" Artemus Gordon shows James West a newspaper dated July 12, 1872. West states, "July 12, that's an interesting date, but it happens to be tomorrow." After the events described happen they again get tomorrow's newspaper and we see the date: July 14, 1872.
* "The Night of the Lord of Limbo" takes place seven years after the end of the Civil War, making it 1872.
* "The Night of the Whirring Death" opens with the caption San Francisco 1874.
* In "The Night of the Flaming Ghost", West says, "If the real John Brown had lived he'd be almost 75 years old by now." Brown was born May 9, 1800.
* In "The Night of the Arrow", a cavalry officer resigns his commission as of April 6, 1874.
* In "The Night of the Avaricious Actuary", the heading of a letter shown on screen is dated 1875.
* In "The Night of the Underground Terror", the sadistic commandant of a POW camp is said to have escaped justice for ten years, presumably from the end of the war in 1865.
* In "The Night that Terror Stalked the Town", Loveless has a headstone prepared for West, showing his birthdate as July 2, 1842--174.99.238.22 (talk) 14:13, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Aleixo de Menezes

message: The word reunion does seem a bit controversial.  On the other hand, from what I understand, the Christians of Saint Thomas were generally, initially happy to be united to the Roman Catholic Church.  Unfortunately, Aleixo de Menezes and the Portuguese seem to have turned the whole picture around.
I think the statement "Though this is the official view among Syrian Christians who fall under Roman jurisdiction, the Syrian Christians of Eastern rites, independent of Rome, view Menezes as the harbinger of the darkest era in their history," is fairly dubious, given the fact that the 1913  Catholic Encyclopaedia recognized the errors that had been committed.  Certainly,  1913 was before the modern era of Ecumenical concessions.  So one would suspect that the strictest Catholic traditionalist would have to concede the point.
I shall give some thought to rewording the article -- truth is more important than anyone's  official view...

Talk:Tiger Shark (Marvel Comics)

message: Tiger Shark's top strength seems to fluctuate between 40 tons and 80 tons, according to different sources.  If he can only press 40 tons, this seems entirely too weak based on his underwater battles with Namor the Sub-Mariner.  However, if he can press 80 tons, he should have been much more of a challenge against Hercules and She-Hulk (who can respectively press over 100 tons and 75 tons) who defeated with with pretty much a single blow.  In the latter case, he was not underwater, but he was wearing his water-filled costume.  When his costume is ripped open, his strength sharply declines to the point where even Tigra can immobilize him.
Is it possible that his strength and/or durability significantly decrease when he is on land, regardless of his costume?  Perhaps he can only press 40 tons while on land, but can press 80 tons while underwater? Chris411 16:24, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Strength Level 

message: Re: recent edit summaries
Regarding the SHB image, Asgardian is correct. The editorial guidelines for WikiProject Comics express a preference for a full body shot of the character. Since the character has been returned to a human form, there is no need for a more recent image. The cover of Sub-Mariner #5 will suffice and better matches the guidelines.
However, Asgardian is incorrect when he states that there is a limit on how many images can accompany the article. The editorial guidelines do not specify such a limit. The only limitation is that the images must have a fair use justification. If there is a valid reason to illustrate the article with multiple images, there is no rule against doing so. That said, I am hard-pressed to imagine a fair use justification for using the Ed McGuinness image as a secondary picture for the article. --GentlemanGhost 19:59, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Defenders of the Motherland Day

message: The title of this page and all references to the day should be changed to "Defender of the Fatherland Day". 
The official title of the day in Russian, as written in the article is День защитка Отечества (Den' zashchitka Otechestva). Otechesvto is Fatherland in Russian, since it is derived from the word Otets (Father). 
Russia's Great PATRIOTIC War is called Velikaya Otechestvennaya voyna. The ajective Otechestvennaya comeadjectives from the word Otechestvo (Fatherland), which is turn comes from Otets (Father).
Also the Russians' middle name, or Patronymic (name derived from father's name), is called Ochestvo in Russian
If you look on the Wikipedia page on Fatherland, it lists Otechestvo as the Russian term for Fatherland. Yet this page lists it's meaning as motherland, which is illogical, since 1. It is Carly derived form the word Father.
2. The Russian word for Motherland is Rodina 
Calling this day "Defender of the Motherland day" is like an English book called "Paternal instinct" being translated as "Maternal instinct" in another language.
Despite all this, in the Western press they keep writing "Defender of the Motherland" day when it is clearly illogical and inaccurate.
Perhaps this could be explained on this page?
