message: I don't think it is because everyone knows what an elbow looks like from the outside, and the article focuses on the muscular and skeletal aspect of the elbow.  The picture doesn't add anything to the article (an elbow image with a caption that says "elbow", whee!).  And, I don't see that many other anatomy articles with unnecessary pictures like this (see knee joint and shoulder joint, for example.  But Wrist joint needs to be fixed too, I guess).

thread_title: What about licking it?

message: I was looking in this article for some confirmation that women's elbows tend much more often to be able to bend backward, i.e., the arm opens up from the elbow over 180 degrees.  I think maybe the sentence about carrying angles addresses this, but it's too technical, if someone could put it in plainer English it would be helpful. --Iritscen 19:13, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The carrying angle referred to does not relate to the angle through which the elbow bends, it's the angle between the upper arm (humerus) and lower arm (forearm) when the elbow is straight.  If you hold your arm straight, with the humerus directly in front of you and perpendicular to the coronal plane of the body, the forearm of a woman, statistically, is more likely to deviate to the left (if it's the left arm) or right (if the right).  S'not related to the bending of the elbow, sorry!  In my experience, which is personal and therefore useless, men and women both can straighten past 180.  I'll have a go at the carrying angle to see if I can make it clearer.  WLU 19:26, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you.  That is clearer.  And it's nice to see that I wasn't imagining things re the difference in women.  --Iritscen 17:15, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Oestriminis

message: *The depiction of the Oestrymmi as part of the Prehistory of what is now Portugal cannot avoid to have deep nationalistic overtones, since the Finisterrae is not in what it is now Portugal but in ancient Gallaecia, just above of what is now Portugal. This inclusion of this tribe as part of ancient Lusitannia seems ludricrous from a Geographic point of view.The Finisterrae cape, North West of Galicia and just in front of the British Isles as referred by Avienus has been called like that to this day. Anglo-saxon contributors should be aware that Portuguese scholars have not yet got rid of the nineteenth century view of historians as legitimizers of the national indentity. Wherenever Oestrymmi are from they can only be considered as inhabitants of both modern Galicia and Portuguese lands, and that being very generous of the use of the concept of finisterrae. Patrimonialisation of ancient feats by current political issues should be out of place. 
*There is no reason to think that they should be "the first native people of Atlantic western Iberia, from modern Galicia to the Algarve" of whom Rufus Avienus Festus could not be aware.
*The following speculation is unwarranted: "This ancient narrative has led many authors to identify the Oestrimni as being among the original inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula, those who first made their way there coming from what is today Southern France in the 30th millennium BC, during the Paleolithic (a geneticaly homogenous population, caracterized by the M173 mutation in the Y chromosome, that developed the M343 mutation, giving rise to the R1b Haplogroup, still dominant in Western Europe)."
 
*The following connection has been more soberly noted in the article: "The invasion of serpents recalled by Avienus is probably related to the Saephe or Ophis ("People of the Serpents") and the Dragani ("People of the Dragons") that came to that lands and formed what was known by the Greeks as Ophiussa, as it is stated also in Ora Maritima. This probably refers to the first wave of migrations into Iberia by the Urnfield culture (speakers of the Proto-Celtic language)." \

Talk:Horsemen of the Esophagus

message: Notability: Released on April 25, as of April 27 there are 8 articles in Google News.  From Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_%28books%29#Note_on_notability_criteria
::Nonetheless there is no dictum against any book that is reasonably spread or otherwise well-known or remarkable. Ask yourself if several libraries or bookshops, or a no-subscription website have a copy of the book, so that other wikipedians can easily consult the book, or at least have access to on-line or press-published reviews of the book.
::Usually, books with an ISBN-number and/or availability in a couple dozen of libraries and/or a Project Gutenberg type website, and with a notability above that of an average cookbook or programmers manual would qualify.
If you want to insist the book is not notable today and send the article to AfD that is your right, but this is a topic of significant public interest (see Morgan Spurlock) and I would be very much surprised not to see this book on the NYT bestseller list in a couple of weeks.

thread_title:  "Can be caused by STATINS!" 

message: After what doctors characterize as a 10 year delay in recognizing Simvastatin myopathological effects, the FDA today is headlined in national press warning for these possible effects of Simvastatin use. (It apparently is widely used, and in Sweden is the first choice statin in general practice).
See further http://healthland.time.com/2011/06/09/fda-restricts-use-of-high-doses-of-cholesterol-lowering-drug-zocor/?xid=healthland-daily
This, I feel is a major matter:
1) Compared to the frequency, I presume, of congenital and acquired myopathy, this is a widely used drug by large population groups, and thus may be a major health concern.  Thus it is in the public interest that this need for information be met.
2)  While no connection is described in the FDA notice, one can from a layman's POV
regard with suspicion Simvastatin's possible effect vis-a-vis cardiomyopathy.  Which is of course a problem with mortality links, compared to skelett-musculopathy.
(On an episodic level, I stopped using it for 8 years ago after six months incapacitating
use, due to pain when standing, etc.  Have used Atorvastatin since with no side effects and better effect on cholesterol levels.) -- Idealist707 (talk) 21:25, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Infobox conversion

message: I have completed the B class checklist and believe that this article is a Start class article as it fails to meet B class criteria 1 and 2. I believe that the article could be improved by addressing the following issues:
* Referencing: the addition of inline citations would help improve the verifiability of the information in the article. For a successful B class review the article requires at least one in line citation per paragraph or block of information (more if multiple sources were used);
* Coverage: there are large sections in complete which need to be finished before it can be assessed properly. Additionally, the article does not seem to indicate when the Division was disbanded, or what its fate was after WWI. Was it disbanded, if so was it ever re-raised?
Just a few ideas. If you would like more comprehensive comments regarding the article you might like to submit it for peer review by going to WP:MHPR, but I suggest waiting until the article has been completed before doing this. Also once you feel it requires re-assessment, please add it to the list at WP:MHA. Hope this helps. AustralianRupert (talk) 06:36, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:The Sissy Duckling

message: Nowhere in this book does it state that the Sissy Duckling is gay.  The fact that Harvey Fierstein is gay does not establish that his literary character is, too.
This is true but i believe it should be included in the category due to that many children gay or straight are harrassed in school for their perceiving sexuality, gay kids get mocked and could find solace in this work. Sissy in this book is perceived by the other charicters, just as it is perceived by other children at school. And sissy is a synonym for gay, whether or not the sissy duckling is gay or not should not preclude it from belonging the in Childrens Books on Homosexuality category since perceived sexuality is included in the larger picture.

Talk:Port Townsend High School

message: While I don't have a firm grasp on what a template for a high school page should look like, I'm pretty sure that extensive paragraphs on past school plays and cheer/cross-country rosters are not encyclopedic.  I don't mean to be critical and can see that you have put a great deal of work into the information.
Would you be interested in finding some sample wiki entries for high schools and comming up with a standardized format?  I am familiar with King Co mostly, but have a fair knowledge of other schools throughout the state and am thinking of making a page for each high school.  Things off the top of my head that would be good to have would be:
*School district
*Grades covered (9-12 v. 10-12 or in some cases 1-12)
*School opening date
*School population
*School demographics
*Prominent graduates (ie. listed in Wikipedia)
*Trivia (like a school that appeared in a film...)
It's a big project, kind of dreary; involves more researching school web sites more that actually having attended the school.  I am looking at knocking out all of the high schools in Washington.  This means ensuring that all of the high schools are on the list, then creating a basic page for each.  Once the page is created, it will encourage someone with better knowledge (as in they attended it) to contribute to the base page.  Interested?  --Geneb1955Talk/CVU 04:20, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
