message: Hello.  I added the listing for Freedom as the last album dated 2004.  I don't know the proper order of release and thought the end of 2004 the best place.  It was released by Nextar, UPC 6-38812-72242-3.  --EarthPerson 16:21, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

message: 124.101.212.246, what was your reasoning behind deleting information about former members of the group in your recent edit? I think it's useful information to have in the article (compare, for example to Morning Musume, which rotates members regularly), and you didn't give any rationale.
I plan to undo your edit unless you can give some sort of reasoning for why you deleted the information. Coach Z Ale 14:19, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Former Members 

message: The article seems either incorrect or out of date on one point where it describes the group as "a music group with thirteen women artists, always appearing as twelve on stage."
I'm going to try to find something I can cite for this, but having seen them live last night, I can say that - at least in this performance - they always had all thirteen members on stage at all times, not twelve.  Obviously "I just saw them live" is not a citable source, so I'm not going to edit the page yet, but if anyone can find another source showing that they now sometimes (or always) have all 13 girls on stage, we might want to then edit how that description is phrased, just for accuracy's sake. I'll look and see if I can find anything in a review or something. Dexeron 15:12, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Number of members on Stage 

message: Since late April of 2009 there appear to have been some major changes with this Band. Apparently, under the Auspices of the Original producers the Band has split into to a total of Three (3) Bands adding members and moving some of the original members to the other two bands. What little Information I have been able to glean is from 12Tongtech Site (http://www.youtube.com/user/12tongtech) on YouTube and a Japanese site I cannot translate very well (http://blog.livedoor.jp/blog_12girlsband/archives/51286823.html)
the Three bands are Twelve Girls Band, Graceful Triangle, & V12 Band. If anyone can find out information and update appropriately it would be nice

replies: text:  Neither of the separate articles were about 'plugs' in the sense you describe, though. The two articles,  stopper and bung, were each little more than stubs. The merger, therefore, I think was justified. HOWEVER, I also think the editor that performed the merge picked the wrong title: the objection raised here, that was then ignored, was that a bung describes a SPECIFIC KIND of stopper. Therefore, I have moved the entire article back to stopper, and clarified in the article for what applications is bung used Firejuggler86 (talk) 04:14, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

His concert in London was word and note perfect... suggesting to me at least that his talent is still very much alive... There are enough articles dwelling on the so-called damaged Roky.
User:BAH
I took it out because it's completely untrue (or in the least, outdated). He has a manager, a tour manager, and plays multiple shows every year. I also noted his recovery from his "mental illness". He's not crazy, people...

message: Why is this article in :Category:Outsider music?
According to the (fairly vague) article it seems to be "music by social outsiders".
Was Roky one, during his productive periods?
(And if so, weren't most rock musicians at one point or another: no place to live,
drug addiction, messed up and so on?  Aren't Jagger, Bowie, Lou Reed, Lemmy, Nick Cave and thousands
others "outsider musicians", too?)

Talk:Camille Chamoun

message: Several references to soviet/communist involvement in 1958 have been removed as these are not accurate.
Overall, this article needs a re-write. It doesn't cover Chamoun's involvement in corruption and his role in the events causing the Lebanese Civil War, nor his role in precipitating the crisis of 1958 by rigging elections.

You've removed a lot of names form the category of cold war people, and rightly so, but Chamoun was a key figure, if not the key figure, in the Lebanon Crisis of 1958, which Eisenhower of the USA blamed (rightly or wrongly) on Communist interference.  The Cold War did have something to do with it, as least as regards America's decision to back Chamoun by sending marines. David Cannon 00:06, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Cicuta virosa

message: There seems to be some debate as to whether Socrates was killed by poison hemlock or water hemlock.  Both are of course deadly, but water hemlock appears to cause nausea, which wasn't reported by Plato (see quote in poison hemlock).
Whilst I'd believe that multiple doses of poison hemlock were necessary I'd be very surpised if you'd need multiple doses of water hemlock.  It would appear that a single bite of the root would be sufficient.  See  for more information about the pathophysiology of the two.
As a result I'm going to leave in my new section about Socrates in the poison hemlock page and update this one to make it more interesting.
----
If you get to the rest of the article on the emedicine page (registration may be required), then it does list nausea and vomiting as one of the symptoms of both poison hemlock and water hemlock ingestion.  Water hemlock appears to be more likely to produce nausea as its initial effects are those of gastro-intestinal poisoning.
Water hemlock definitely appears to be the most deadly of the two.  If my understanding of the material is correct, water hemlock is more likely to result in seizures and convulsions, whereas poison hemlock results in paralysis and respiratory arrest.  The quote from Plato would suggest tha latter.

Talk:Lyke-Wake Dirge

message: I have had a long interest in the Lyke Wake Dirge, since first hearing the Young Tradition sing it in the 1960s. Despite the obvious Christian references in the song, it has been suggested that the dirge is originally pre-christian, and the Christian bits have been added at a later date. My recollection is that when Pentangle sang it, they introduced it by saying something along those lines. The idea that various sequential states are arrived at after death by donning clothing, consuming food and acquiring money which had been given to others in life does not seem to align with conventional Christian theology. I am familiar with Matthew "For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in" etc, but that is not really what is described in the dirge. Has anything definitive been written on this subject? Bluewave 14:38, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Manuscripts? Date? 

message: The word Lyke in the title shouldn't be called obsolete. While the word wake is today mostly used for the watch over a dead, it has, and more importantly had, other meanings in different contextes. The essential meaning of "wake" is "not sleeping", alive still in the word "awake". Most of the times it would have been sth like "at guard". Guarding a lyke therefore is a defined event, a wake alone wouldn't have been. The german word, btw, is "Leichenwache" (or Totenwache, with Toter being a synonym of Leiche), and Wache is still a pretty versatile and common word, mostly referring to a guard.
