Talk:Bulldog Drummond (novel)

message: People might think this is a modern view of British police but this is an American cop talking about them in this 1920 novel: 'Your English police know most things,' he drawled, 'but you've sort of got some peculiar laws in your country. With us, if we don't like a man— something happens. He kind o' ceases to sit up and take nourishment. But over here, the more scurrilous he is, the more he talks bloodshed and riot, the more constables does he get to guard him from catching cold.' (80.31.146.92 (talk) 18:27, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Crimson Joy

message: Already feel that the article deserves a spoiler warning. I hadn't finished reading it, though I had gotten far enough that they were considering that Spenser was considering that possibility. However, what was bothering me enough to start research was the blood type error on page 26. There is no Type C blood, but he obviously meant Type O. Extremely unusual for Parker to make such a mistake, so I researched it. First confirmed (from many sources) that it is incorrect, so I was looking for any errata page about it. Led me here, and to this suggestion that it might be worth mentioning in the article. Maybe at the top before a "Spoiler Alert"? Shanen (talk) 23:19, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

message: :Article is being redirected without discussion taking place and without justification. The usual argument from TTN is that the article has no sources. However, this article is relevant in that it was the pilot episode for a new show and is sourced well. Instead of discussing, TTN continues to redirect article.

Talk:Double Indemnity (novel)

message: I was under the impression that Double Indemnity was a novella, first appearing (in full) in the collection Three of a Kind. This article states that it is a novel. While the border between the two formats is pretty fuzzy, I was just wondering if anyone knew if the novella was expanded at all once it became a standalone title.

Talk:Microcon

message: The first Microcon was held in 1982 (not 1981, as stated in the original article) and the second in 1983 (the original organisers having left university by then). Since the numbering was up to #7 by 1987, this means there was either one year with two conventions, or the numbering jumped a digit. Unfortunately, Ansible doesn't list most of the early events. Does anyone have any further information on Microcon during the period 1983-87? Ghostwords (talk) 17:28, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

The above article lists all the crossings of the most important river in England from its source to its mouth.

message: * I have reverted an edit by  that introduced lots of unsourced material, several inappropriate in-text external links, and lots of incorrect formatting. Also the article was becoming rather promotional. This really was too much for a cleanup, hence the wholesale reversion. Before overhauling an article in this way, please familiarize yourself with WP:EL, WP:MOS, WP:V, and WP:RS. Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 13:36, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: *There are plenty of instances of incorrect formatting, just a few of the most obvious ones: too much empty lines, between sections, use of capitals in section headings, inappropriate in-text external links, etc. You are right that not all you added was unsourced, but much was and none of it was sourced to an independent source. You can use the organization's web page to source information such as who the president is, or when/where it was established. You cannot use if to say things like "their meetings generally attract 7000 people" (which, by the way, is not even true: what is correct would have been "their last meetings have attracted around 7000 people"; up till a few years ago, the figure was below 5000). You should also phrase the text in a more neutral way, because this is an encyclopedia, not a place to promote an organization. I would advice that you look for independent sources (there must be, for example, newspaper articles on the meeting, which may mention number of attendants). I would also expect some other sources, interviews with presidents, etc. You can use the organization's own website as a source, but you should do it sparingly and not for anything that could be construed as controversial/promotional (like numbers of attendants, which organizations may exaggerate). Don't add huge slabs of text in one time, go about it piecemeal so that other editors get a chance to look over your edits. Any questions or suggestions can be posted here on the talk page, that's what it is for. Hope this helps. --Randykitty (talk) 17:58, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Talk:-wich town

message: So this entire article consists of a paragraph from an old, obscure, and not very relevant book, and a number of references that don't support the primary point. Wich derives from the Anglo-Saxon for dwelling-place. That this was sometimes a site for salt production is neither here nor there. Any references that support the argument that Wich denotes brine springs or wells?--Swahilli (talk) 16:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

message: The statement - As wīċ also means "bay" in Old English, wich and wych are also used in names to denote brine springs or wells. - is unlikely to be true, the actual derivation being offered earlier in the article.

Talk:Haivrit

message: This band satisfies pretty much all of the criteria of WP:MUSIC. They released an album, they were in rotation on at least two national radio stations, they were reviewed by Israeli newspapers, and they were even nominated for a major Israeli award. The only problem is that the available sources that prove these things are in Hebrew, but anyone in :Category:User he can verify them.
The information about their early years as The Blush and Blush and Lure was available on their websites (www.theblush.com and www.blushandlure.com). They used to include press clippings from European newspapers reviewing the band. The Internet Archive is aware of the fact that these websites existed, but for some reason i can't reach the cached versions.

Talk:Logicity

message: The case to retain the Page
LogiCity is an online (or distributed) serious game, that falls within the sub-category of Global warming games.  Like the Climate Challenge Game, also listed on the Global warming game page (and which also has its own Wikipedia page), LogiCity has been publicly funded by the UK's Defra, through its Climate Challenge Programme.  The game is not a commercial venture; it is freely available to anyone to play. As such, I believe it has as much justification to a Wikipedia page as the other games linked from the Global warming game page, which apart from Climate Challenge, include V GAS, Stabilization Wedge and Keep Cool.
The first attempt to create a dedicated page for LogiCity fell foul of the need to maintain impartiality and a properly encyclopaedic approach to content.  This has now been corrected; a section on criticisms has been added, and the page has been structured in line with what I believe to be good practice.
