message: I have reverted recent edits for the following reasons. I ask that editors review the Wikipedia policies and guidelines I provide below.
*Wikipedia is not a directory -- the school's main address is provided in the info box -- detailed addresses, phone numbers, fax numbers (who uses faxes anymore?) and bus routes for each building are not appropriate.
*See WP:HEAD and WP:BOLDFACE for information on formatting and capitalization of headings, and appropriate use of boldfacing.

thread_title: Spoiler request

message: I've fleshed out the article greatly and in the process, I think I've found enough to justify this passing notability guidelines. Much of the best coverage looks to be for the TV adaptation, but I have found some general coverage as a whole. I think that this serves as a good landing page of sorts for anyone looking for information on the various adaptations. The coverage for the individual pieces are all kind of weak, but I think that as a whole there's just enough. Kind of surprised at what I dug up, as I legit wasn't feeling optimistic about finding enough to warrant removing the PROD, based on my initial search.

message: A diagram would give me some idea of what is being talked about. I'm sorry and i'm not at all being rude when i say that, as a land lubber, after reading this article i was left no wiser than before. This has happened to me now on many sailing articles i have accessed and i always come to the same conclusion that a few well placed diagrams and drawings would do the trick. After all, most of us have seen pictures and films showing various sailing craft, we just don't know a lot of the actual terminology. Diagrams would just complete the picture!

thread_title:  Dead ref links 

message: Certain parts of the article contains biased information. The language sounds harsh towards the school faculty. For example, the sentence "The school also has a gym that students aren't allowed to use because it 'belongs' to the country" sounds sarcastic and does not adhere to the objective tone of an encyclopedia. Large sections of the article cite no sources and sound as if it was written by a student who goes to this school (which it probably is). This leads to an informal-sounding article.
Also, some parts may be outdated. Teachers come and go. New buildings are built. The article does not speak about the new building put into use this year, Zhengtao Building. The "Campus" section only mentions three buildings for academic use, while it ignores other buildings in the school.

replies: text: Why do you think this school is non-notable? Don't forget that in communist countries middle schools are the equivalent of secondary schools/high schools elsewhere. There are only a handful of Chinese schools with articles on Wikipedia, especially in proportion to the size of the population. (Just look at the thousands and thousands of American school articles in comparison, the vast majority of which are probably far less notable than this school.) We should really be encouraging all efforts at creating these articles to counter the inherent systemic bias. Dahliarose (talk) 20:41, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't, but merge/re-direct is a fair compromise against deletion, particularly as I have doubts this article would survive AfD. If the school is equivalent to a high school it may well be notable, so should ideally be kept on the WP:POTENTIAL principle, but Wikipedia guidelines and many editors demand evidence of passing WP:N, and there does not seem to be much evidence available at the moment to do this and make sure the article is kept unfortunately. Camaron | Chris (talk) 21:03, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

text: I would like to resolve the notability tag one way or the other. I would expect that the number of schools just like this one is enormous. Without some additional material and sources, there is no way to measure the notability. If a middle school in China is equivalent to a high school in North America, then it could be considered notable on that basis. The article probably remains as we now see it. --Stormbay (talk) 21:36, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:List of In the Heat of the Night episodes

message: All of the episodes of this series fail the notability guidelines for television episodes. The way for these articles to be improved is through the inclusion of real-world information from reliable sources to assert notability. That is unlikely to happen, and these only contain overly long plot summaries, trivia, and quotes. Per that, they need to be a small part of this list. If there are no objections, these will be redirected soon. TTN 23:50, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Swietenia humilis

message: I had problems with scientific names in series even though I followed the Taxonavigation section and Help:Contents. In essence I attempted to replace the existing stub with my edit. Hopefully my second edit will make clear what I tried to say on the first edit.
My edit now has a discussion section. Let us move to a wider picture. Because of the widespread use of mahogany, and interest in from many angles, each of the three species of True Mahogany needs to be mentioned in Wikipedia's overall mahogany section. Then an obvious link to Wikipedia's existing three species of True Mahogany should be indicated in the overall mahogany section. Following that, an obvious link in each of the three Wikipedia True Mahogany sections should be made to the corresponding Wikispecies sections. I think the botanical aspects (anatomy, reproduction, etc.) should be moved from Wikipedia to the three Wikispecies sections. However, the horticultural material should remain in Wikipedia because of horticultural warnings I will submit later. The botanical features are dry and tough going where they are now placed. Since non English terminology used to describe anatomy and physiological happenings are sprinkled through the text, brief explanations need to be inserted. The general reader following through the system will benefit as well as the specialist who has to reach for a 300 page dictionary of biological names and terms to understand a meaning. A good number will not admit the need. For example, with the Pacific Coast Mahogany (the subject of my latest submission) I would modify as follows: Young brances glabrous (smooth), slender with small roundish, brown lenticles (pores through which exchanges of gasses occurs). Comments please. Clyde A. Hill  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clyde A. Hill (talk • contribs) 18:53, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

What does the bark look like (yes, I see the photo, but that appears to be a fully mature tree - juveniles may appear differently)? What diameter does the trunk achieve? Does the trunk buttress? Are any of the roots exposed? What is the spread and over-all shape of a mature tree? What does the grain of sawn wood look like? Please provide details.

Talk:Ockbrook School

message: This article was suggested for deletion on the grounds of notability.
While it is certainly a stub and could be greatly improved, the school meets several of the criteria for notability.  In particular, several books about it have been published and it has been mentioned in many more.  I do not have references to hand but will attempt to provide them in due course.
More generally, it has been educating young women continuously for over two hundred years and, because of its connection with the adjacent Moravian Church, has an interesting and unusual history.
The prod+ has been accordingly removed.

Talk:History of Arabs in Afghanistan

message: Khurasan is the ancient/middle evil name of Afghanistan. The first time when it was mentioned was by Parthians in the 2/3 century. Khurasan is taken from middle-persian words Khurshid or Khur and san, land where the sun arise. It was part of Iran-Shahr, greater Iran. The Sassanian king Yezdegard was the last who used the name Khurasan where he was seek to find companians to fight the Arabs. Abu Muslim Khurasani was the men who threw the Arabs out of modern Afghanistan and most of central asia. But the arabs became vasalls of the persian Saffarids who pushed them to modern Pakistan and India where they became governeurs and the new rulers. The name Khurasan is even mentioned in the Panjtchantra, the indian history book as the country of Tajis (the kinglike people) and the kambujis and sassanians.
