Talk:Rubin Carter

message: For the section, "In popular culture"
Under, "Carter's story inspired:" 
Add the following:
The Patti Smith Group song, Pumping (my heart), from the 1976 album Radio Ethiopia also deals with the incarceration of Rubin "Hurricane" Carter. In a May 6, 2021, post on her Substack blog, Patti Smith shared the following anecdote about her and Bob Dylan's songs about Carter: "One early summer evening in 1975, I was walking down the street in Greenwich Village, scribbling down some lyrics on an envelope, when I bumped into Bob Dylan.  He asked me what I was writing and I told him a song to a boxer.  He seemed taken aback and said he had just written one too. Afraid that he might be annoyed, I said yours is probably better, and he laughed.  At the time he was writing the songs for the album Desire and was on his way to a loft to play some of them and asked me to come along. I can still picture him with his acoustic guitar in that dimly lit place with only a handful of people at his feet. That night he played many of the songs he was soon to record...He also sang Hurricane about the boxer Rubin “Hurricane” Carter, who was serving time in a New Jersey prison for a murder he didn’t commit."

thread_title:  New "Sexuality" section 

message: A short film made for the BBC’s topical magazine Tonight, Song of the Valley [1957] is not strictly a documentary. Showing a man’s reminiscences of home as he is escorted to prison, it is set to Dorothy Squires’ ‘Song of the Valley’ and though it is dramatised, it portrays a working-class Yorkshire community in much the same style as documentaries being produced by directors like Denis Mitchell in this period.
The use of the streets and landscapes of Yorkshire certainly correspond to John Grierson’s oft-used definition of documentary as a “creative treatment of actuality” and in this pioneering period experimental formats were regularly used with little attention to distinctions between genres. What Song of the Valley best shows is the kind of short, beautifully made film that was regularly being produced for magazine style programmes. Schlesinger of course would later make the transition from television to film, where he would become one of Britain’s most well-known directors.
Song of the Valley is included on the forthcoming DVD box set Visions of Change Volume 1: BBC 1951-1967. cassandra  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cassandrathesceptic (talk • contribs) 12:37, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Prince Johnson

message: I don't think Johnson ever claimed to "be a prince" of any monarchy or royal house. It may well have been his first given name, or maybe a nickname acquired later, in any case it was used as an ordinary name, and therefore does belong in the title. In fact the most common form is simply "Prince Johnson" rather than "Prince Yormie Johnson" (let alone just "Yormie Johnson").

Talk:The Guess Who

message: Canadian content regulations were not enacted until 1972, long after The Guess Who were an established band with many hits.  Prior to that, it was difficult (though obviously not impossible) for Canadian bands to break through on Canadian radio, as the Canadian music distribution system was largely controlled by American record companies promoting American or British acts. Canadian bands also had to obtain work visas to tour in the US or the UK, which made things a little more complicated in terms of getting one's international career off the ground. (Partly because work visas would only be granted to musicians of a certain professional stature -- and because it was difficult to get a career started in Canada, it was hard to achieve that stature...)  
So yes, being a in Canadian rock band in the 60s put one at somewhat of a disadvantage career-wise. That the Guess Who succeeded and thrived in this environment is a testament to both their work ethic, and to the quality of their music. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.137.89.6 (talk) 21:52, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

The syntax here is incoherent. 
'This could have been due to...' - what does 'this' refer to? 
'the codex' - what codex? No codex has been mentioned so far.
'by the architect Giacomo della Porta' - the preposition 'by' makes no sense here at all.
The whole of this 'History' section needs to be rewritten coherently by someone genuinely familiar with the subject.

Talk:Bubble tea

message: # So in the section of Popularity#United States, it mentioned this; "A massive shipping and supply chain crisis on the U.S. West coast, coupled with the obstruction of the Suez Canal in March 2021, caused a shortage of tapioca pearls for bubble tea shops in the U.S. and Canada. Most of the tapioca consumed in the U.S. is imported from Asia, since the critical ingredient, tapioca starch, is mostly grown in Asia." So it is mainly grown in Asia, does it come from South America or Asia? In addition to that, can we add a footnote about the production of tapioca starch in Asia and South America? Also, can we add the section for the popularity in Canada? I have proof that it is from South America:http://www.berkeleyinternational.net/tapioca_introduction.htm#:~:text=Tapioca%20is%20a%20root%20crop,%2C%20Guatemala%2C%20Honduras%20and%20Brazil.
# So in the section of Popularity#Taiwan, it also mentioned this; "Bubble tea is used to represent Taiwan in the context of the Milk Tea Alliance." Since the Milk Tea Alliance consists of Taiwan, Hong Kong(which also has a section), Thailand, and Myanmar/Burma. Can we add a section for Thailand and Myanmer/Burma?
