Talk:Belden Place

message: I proposed the merger because I'm dubious that San Francisco has a "French Quarter" that's distinct from Belden Place.  It's not an entirely made-up cultural institution -- clearly there is a small history of French immigration and culture in SF and some sources on it.  But I've lived in SF for years and never heard the term "French Quarter."  The few articles I could find started with expressions like "If SF had a French Quarter it would be Belden Lane" or "San Francisco's French Quarter, the narrow one-block alley known as Belden Lane..."  So I think they are one and the same thing.  Even if there is some spillover to a small geographic area in downtown, the two articles are duplicative and if anything one should be a section within the other to avoid confusion.  I have no personal stake in this and personally love this part of town.  Thoughts?
:Nobody objected for ten days so I have gone ahead and merged the articles.  I tried to keep as much of the original material as possible but in keeping with encyclopedic tone.  Also some expansion, clean-up, sourcing, etc.  Wikidemo 01:33, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Better Picture 

message: I think these two issues are best treated in separate paragraphs (although there is of course a connection.) Gov. West was responding to a petition signed by well over half the citizens of Copperfield, and was seeking to shut down saloons that were violating the law and owned by public officials, not simply saloons per se. I think it would be fair to describe this as a governor's attempt to establish the rule of law, and of a politician's knack for grabbing a headline, as much as an indication of his fervent opposition to alcohol. -Pete (talk) 06:03, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Neahkahnie Mountain

message: I edited and added to the info about early Spanish exploration and Oregon. Specifically, I took out the claim, it is verified that Spanish ships did come to the area in the 16th and 17th centuries as the Oregon area was on the trade route between the Philippines and the Spanish settlements in North America. This is false. The trade route referenced is the Manila Galleon route, which normally reached North America in southern California. Also, the claim was footnoted and referenced to this webpage which does not back up the claim. The closest the webpage comes is saying, Spanish galleons plied Pacific waters until the 1800’s. Additional tales of beeswax and such don't convince me. The webpage is part of a site devoted to tourism, real estate, and the like, which does not inspire trust. Pfly (talk) 16:09, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the stories of beeswax are true. Blocks of it have been dug from the beach at Manzanita as early as 1814 (by Native Americans who then took it over Neahkahnie Mountain to trade with Alexander Henry, a factor in the fur trade at Astoria), & some pieces are on exhibit at the Historical Society Museum in Tillamook. I'm studying a publication by the County Historical Society about the treasure, considering how to integrate its content into this article, which would add a number of further details. (The problem is that it is amateurishly written, almost as badly as the average website -- but the contents appear to be reliable.) -- llywrch (talk) 21:20, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Heh, I had forgotten that I posted here before and expressed skepticism. I've learned a lot more about this recently and sure was wrong before. I added a short bit about it with a link to the beeswax wreck page, and good sources that go into the state of research on the topic as of 2018. The text on this page could probably be rewritten but I can't do it right now. Will try to get it it later. If that fails, the sources linked have tons of info about it.

Talk:Berkeley Daily Planet

message: References to "free-speech position" as well as stating that letters section is open to all points of view without censorship are definitively contradicted by O'Malley herself: "This week we received a particularly vicious letter attacking the Islamic religion from a correspondent who was not ashamed to sign his name and telephone number, and we’re finally fed up with this discussion. We’re not going to print it, at least not for now." Becky O'Malley, Editorial: Taking an Acrimony Break, Berkeley Daily Planet, Friday May 14, 2004.. Also, in reference to a group of pro-Israel letters that she received, she stated 
"Since most of the writers don’t seem to be Daily Planet readers, we’ve sent this stock response: 
'Thanks for your submission. We probably won’t print it, since we usually publish only letters from our local readership area, or occasionally responses to our editorials from other places.'" Becky O'Malley, Editorial: True Self Defense, Berkeley Daily Planet, Friday March 26, 2004..

Talk:Framing (visual arts)

message: The article needs to be improved in the following ways:

* The article's scope needs to be made more clear.  I believe the same concept applies at least to photography, cinematography, and painting, but someone more knowledgeable should clarify.
