Talk:Obernewtyn Chronicles

message: Note that there is already far more content about this series at Isobelle Carmody than there is on this page. Unless this page is significantly expanded, it may be advisable to marge and refiret this page into Isobelle Carmody. DES (talk) 07:16, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm unsure what genre to call The Obernewtyn Chronicles. I would call them fantasy, but they're not really fantasy in the true sense of the word. But neither are they really true science fiction. Speculative fiction doesn't seem descriptive enough. Matters are further complicated because the articles for each individual book list different genres. Any opinions? Albreda 04:08, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Seems to me that they are SF with trappings that create the superficial illusion of being fantasy, kinda like McCaffrey's Pern books (which are no more fantasy than, say, Heinlein's typical juvenile).--Orange Mike 00:45, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I agree with what you're saying and I think it's right, they are essentially SF with fantasy trappings. But I'm a little reluctant to put them as SF only, because to me that conjures up images of spaceships and blazing guns (irrespective of whether or not that is what SF really is) - and that is not at all what the OberChron is about. What do you think? Can it just be left as SF/fantasy? Albreda 06:22, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Genre

message: I have listed this article as having in-universe problems.  There is a link to information about this in the infobox.  I should note that I also have concerns that the article may be unencyclopedic as it is primarily a summary only.  This is against wikipedia's official policy (linked above) which states: "Plot summaries. Wikipedia articles on works of fiction should contain real-world context and sourced analysis, offering detail on a work's achievements, impact or historical significance, not solely a summary of that work's plot. A plot summary may be appropriate as an aspect of a larger topic." 
This summary may also constitute a copyright violation as a derivative work as well as Wikipedia's Fair use policy.  I have not tagged the article yet with notices on these points as this could lead to speedy deletion without giving you much opportunity to rectify the problems.

Talk:Pokémon Trading Card Game

message: I don't understand why the only tournaments discussed under "Major tournaments" are ones that happened during 2000-2001.

message: Have removed the above. If any such template is put on a page there really should be an explanation in the talk page.

thread_title:  BLP please! 

message: It is mentioned in a lot of the coverage of John McCririck's death, and indeed in our own article about Alexandra Park Racecourse, that McCririck wanted his ashes to be scattered there. Matters arising, which are largely beyond my limited expertise but which interest me anyway, might include:
* Should we mention that McCririck was a big Ally Pally fan, saying, for example, that part of him died when it closed in 1970?
* Should we mention his wishes concerning his ashes? (Try saying that when you've had a few.)
* Can we find out whether those wishes were met (or if not, why not?) and include it with an RS?
Any comments please? Best to all, DBaK (talk) 22:18, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Characterisation (law)

message: Is the "characterisation" covered in this article sufficiently different from characterisation used in constitutional law? I'm thinking of the view of Roberts J in United States v Butler - the judiciary interprets the constitution to define the limits of the subject-matter area, and then determines whether the challenged law lies within those limits. Do we need another article characterisation (constitutional law)? --Yu Ninjie 07:40, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Thank you for your question. You seem to misjudge the subject matter of this page. This is step two in the standard PIL/Conflict process applied in every municipal law system around the world. It is entirely possible that there are constitutional issues in Australia about Conflict generally, but such public issues are almost completely irrelevant to this page except and in so far as public policy may be an issue for the forum courts. If you have particular concerns from an Australian Constitutional Law POV, I suggest that you introduce relevant material on the Private International Law page where the general relationship between Conflict and sovereignty is addressed under the headings "Status of foreign law" and "Harminisation". -David91 16:48, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Talk:William Macewen

message: I have posted this same question in Talk:Pneumonectomy
There is a clear disagreement in the sources as to who carried out the the first pneumonectomy. The NAHSTE project attributes it to William Macewen (the article doesn't give the year, but other online sources say in 1895). However PubMed in this abstract attributes it to Rudolf Nissen in 1931. 
Historical disputes over who was the first to do this-or-that are common; but usually they arise for claims that are more or less contemporary. There are 36 years between these two dates. Can anyone shed any light on this? --BillC 08:15, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Washington, My Home

message: based on the date of creation and  I'm guessing the song is still under copyright, right? In that case, wouldn't that make :File:Washington, My Home.ogg a derivative work? e.g. if we had a recording of the band of the Washington National Guard playing Bad Romance, it wouldn't qualify as public domain, even though it's a work of the US federal government.
Alternatively, if the song is in the public domain (perhaps because the copyright wasn't renewed?), then :File:"Washington, My Home".ogg would fail WP:NFCC#1, replaceability, since a free rendition of the song could be created (even if none currently exists). Colin M (talk) 18:26, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee Elections January 2006/Proposed modifications to rules

message: The discussion on the project page has been useful. In the light of it I propose having a vote on the proposal that candidates for ArbCom must be admins. No-one's really contradicted the proposition that there is only a negligible probability that the community would be willing to have someone as an Arbitrator who it wouldn't be willing to have as an admin. Some have questioned whether we need to bar non-admins from standing; however, personally I feel that the fringe candidates damaged rather than improved the last election, and that omitting them may help this time round.
The other proposal that I think should be voted on is whether we have an election in June to fill mid-year vacancies. This would be set against the alternative of putting into words the current de facto position - namely that Jimbo, in discussions with the existing Arbitrators, may, at their discretion, fill casual vacancies, with the term of Arbitrators appointed in this way lapsing at the end of the year. This will, at the very least, ensure that we have a clear guideline going forward.
I propose running these two votes from 14 September to the end of the month, with 80% being required to change from the current de facto position, but would welcome comments before launching into a vote. The other proposals do not look at though they would pass if a vote were held on them, so I do not suggest holding votes on these at this stage. That said, I note that there is some support for an enlarged ArbCom - but I think it best we leave a vote on those sort of proposals to another day, jguk 18:32, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:USS Pioneer

message: There's some confusion about exactly how many of these there are. Our article on Treaties of Velasco indicates that the frigate USS Pioneer carried General Santa Anna to Veracruz in 1837. Additionally, site lists a USS Pioneer participating in the battle of New Berne in 1862. Since the earlier Pioneer would be at least 25 years old at that point, it's very possible they are two different ships. So there might be a total of at least four.
:The USN history site lists the files of Pioneer, a bark, and a CSN submarine, Pioneer as well at . I suspect that the ship at New Berne was the submarine, captured and renamed. And the frigate, Pioneer, was really a bark. Appropriate changes made. Jinian 16:29, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
