Talk:Overline

message: What does an overline do to the letter/phoneme involved? Does it serve no purpose or could at least one be listed? Hyacinth (talk) 04:27, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Purpose/Effect 

message: This article has some issues. The unicode technique listed here for macrons does not work in Word or perhaps it only works in specific fonts. "The character U+0305 ◌̅ combining overline allows an overline to be placed over any character (as with any combining character, it appears over the preceding character: for example, x̅, compared to x‾). A series of overlined characters usually results in an unbroken line, depending on the font (for example, 1̅2̅3̅)." This does not work in Arial or Arial MS Unicode.

message: [ Dave Hayer Wikipedia - original reference ] 
In 2007, Hayer received a Pravasi Bharatia Samman Award from the Government of India which is annually given to people of Indian heritage, no longer living in India, who have achieved excellence in their chosen fields of endeavour.[6] The award was presented by A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, the President of India, at a ceremony in New Delhi, India for Hayer's "active leadership in the community, his contributions to public service and for his achievements in government." Hayer was the second Canadian to be presented with this honour.[citation needed]

Today The Vancouver Sun is looking at one important community that has more than a century of history in British Columbia. South Asians with roots in India, Pakistan, Fiji, SriLanka, Uganda, Tanzania and Bangladesh number in the hundreds of thousands in B.C. and have exerted positive and energetic influence on business, community, the arts, media and political life. Those on the list are diverse and vibrant as the province itself.

message: Please be patient as I continue to improve this article, and please do not mark it for deletion. The Gormogon figure is important in the third season of the popular show "Bones," and is significant as part of a cultural tradition in secret society and serial killer themes. I have not integrated all my sources into this article yet, or fully wikified it, and I welcome any contributions to the topic. Some things I am still looking for:
*commentary from the show's creators on the Gormogon
*significant reviews from respected TV reviewers
*content related to the portrayal of secret societies, and of secret societies connected to serial killers.

replies: text: Good point. The sole source is a smear piece from a sneering, London-based "serious" newspaper that parades its right-on and politically-correct credentials when it suits them, but is quite happy to go with third rate bigoted 1970s working men's club comedy innuendo about "special schools" and somebody's lack of a sexual relationship if they think it makes a good story. They don't quite go as far as sticking their tongue in their lower lip and going "gunnnnrrrh!", but that's clearly the overall tone they're aiming for. 217.155.20.163 (talk) 00:38, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

I've redirected the article; he seems to be only notable as a member of the band, so unless the main article becomes too long, a separate article probably isn't needed. snigbrook (talk) 21:46, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: The paragraph in the "Currently" section about the viral email comparing the president to Hitler should be removed from this article.  Kaiser has publicly stated that he did not write it, and does not agree with it.  Snopes has traced its origins elsewhere.
So what we have is a false attribution, where the only connection to Kaiser is that his name was hijacked by somebody in the chain of the viral president/Hitler email.  This is a terrible reason to have something about it in this article, the biography of a living person.  We do now say that it wasn't Kaiser, but we shouldn't be talking about this non-event in his life at all.
I propose to remove it.  Anybody else have views on that?  Pechmerle (talk) 09:37, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it is better that we keep it. There are a few reliable sources that discuss this incident and also make it clear that Kaiser was a victim of somebody's false attribution.

message: This article is quite parsimonious in content compared to the influence and colorful ministry of David Epley. I have files containing copies of the old "The Good Shepherd Magazine", various letters, and a few of his books, but these are in storage where I am presently unable to access them. There is not much on the Internet about this ministry. 
If anyone has ANY information at all about David Epley and his ministry it would be highly appreciated. I am compiling a book on Pentecostal church history. Also we have a small Pentecostal Heritage museum which contains pictures, books, magazines, and recordings (both video and audio) of Pentecostal ministries. We are attempting to procure information for David Epley.
It is important that this information be acquired for posterity. Future generations should have access to ministries which pioneers of yesteryear strove to produce.

message: As someone has already noted at the head of the article, it contains far more editorializing and expression of the writer's opinion than is appropriate for an encyclopedia article.
There's also a problem with at least one of its claims of fact. The final paragraph states that the Mexican public "look[s] upon the Ambassador’s retention under the new American President as a mark of approval...." The problem is that the Mexican Revolution article says in the section about the Huerta presidency that "incoming president of the United States Woodrow Wilson refused to recognize Huerta's government.
