Talk:Vlado Milunić

message: Vlado Milunic is a Czech architect born in Zagreb (capital of now independent Croatia) on 3.3.1941. 
Milunic's own web site, however, states the place of birth as Zagreb, Yugoslavia. At the time of his birth Croatia was not independent, but a part of larger Yugoslavia. Not sure about Wikipedia policy on how the place of birth in such cases should be defined, but I think the issue here is not geography but ethnicity!
The point is, Milunic is not a Croatian architect! He is not a Croatian architect because his architectural work has no connection to Croatia. Also, he is not Croatian by birth: country he was born in was called Yugoslavia and there is no evidence that he is an ethnic Croat. Even if he was an ethnic Croat, he would still be a Czech architect of Croat origin. However, his ethnic origin (which I found to be Montenegrin) has no bearing on his work so should not be included unless clear evidence is found.
Only connection Milunic has with Croatia is the place of birth, Zagreb, which at the time of his birth was in Yugoslavia. This is not sufficient to justify Croatian reference. Therefore, inclusion of 'Croatian architects' 'Croatian people' 'Croatian people stubs' is wrong and misleading.
Unless some contrary evidence is given, I will make amendments accordingly. Croatian stub references will be removed.Brit Riot Device 06:04, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree, precisely because it is not about ethnicity. If he was a Croatian citizen, then he is a Croatian architect - as simple as that. GregorB (talk) 11:48, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: origin

message: The quote regarding his nationality was, according to this source, translated very misleadingly.
Jsem československý architekt, protože mám československé vzdělání a cítím se Jugoslávcem na protest proti primitivnímu nacionalismu, přestože ani Československo ani Jugoslávie už neexistují. Žiji v Praze, na půl cesty mezi Jadranem, kde jsem prožil dětství a Dráždany, kde mám část předků...
I make that, word to word:
I'm a Czechoslovak architect because I have Czechoslovak education, and I feel Yugoslavian as a protest against primitive nationalism, despite the fact that neither Czechoslovakia nor Yugoslavia still exist. I live in Prague, halfway between the Adriatic, where I spent my childhood, and Dresden, where I have some ancestral roots." 
Nowhere does he say "Prague is my home" or that he is "Czech". - filelakeshoe 12:44, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Track Listing 

message: Hi Angeldeb. Regarding your recent edits to the reception section of the article, you've increased the number of reviews in the table from 12 to 28. Don't you think that's just a tad superfluous? The guidelines recommend about 5-6 as a base, and if you look around at various VG FAs, you won't find many with more than 10 or so. Similarly, when adding custom reviews to a table, you can only add a maximum of 10. Having a review table with 28 reviews is a little over-the-top. Wikipedia is not a repository for reviews. People can go to Metacritic or GameRankings for that, both of which are linked in the article. I don't really want to simply undo everything you've done, but the table as it stands at the moment is pretty crazy. Bertaut (talk) 01:19, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: To note - every score and its reference included within a score table must be used in the prose of the reception section, otherwise you are just loaded the table with data without importance. We include the aggregators so that people can look across all the scores for a game themselves; our tables should only be about 5-10 entries to give enough flavor to the scores and to connect with the prose. --MASEM (t) 15:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: View

message: In the History section: "Camp Curry celebrated its 100th anniversary in 1999 and it still offers park visitors lodging in the shadow of Glacier Point and Half Dome."
Mentioning Half Dome here amounts to topological namedropping. Curry Village is WSW of Half Dome and far away and therefore not in its shadow. Maybe briefly, in the very early morning in midsummer, but even this is speculative. Yes, "in the shadow of . . ." is sometimes used figuratively. However, it shouldn't be used that way in this sentence, because Curry Village is literally in the shadow of the Glacier Point wall some of the time, and following Glacier Point with Half Dome implies that the Half Dome reference is literal as well.

Talk:Little Plum

message: The article claims that 'In British English slang, a plum is a common word for someone who acts like a fool. '    I know that the word can be used in phrases like 'a plum job', meaning a highly desirable one, or 'he's got a plum in his mouth', meaning an affected 'upper class' accent of British English.  Those are backed up by the Oxford English Dictionary. But I have never heard of plum being used to describe someone who acts like a fool, and neither has the OED.  Admittedly 'prune' (dried plum) is used to describe somebody who is disliked or foolish, but that's a stretch; if that's the closest and nobody else can explain otherwise, maybe the comment should be deleted.

Talk:Nina Temple

message: My deletion of the following section was reverted:
The Democratic Left continued through the 1990s, becoming more and more obviously pro-New Labour in its political tone. This is perhaps best symbolised by the promotion of so-called 'syntegrity' as a mode for running political meetings.
To one member - and perhaps many other members - of Democratic Left, this was the straw which broke the camel's back, especially after Nina Temple increasingly stressed an affiliation to the ideas of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe in this context. This member, Brian Precious, thought that this amounted to a trivialization and misrepresentation of the ideas of the latter, and so he organised a meeting featuring Laclau and Hilary Wainwright in November 1996, at which the ideas of Ernesto and Chantal were placed in a much better context, without seeming to give any credence to the obviously opportunistic posturing of so many New Labour politicians.
Let me explain again my objections to this section.
(1) It is biased, as shown by the way in which "syntegrity" is discussed", and also in the tendentious phraseology ("placed in a much better context", "opportunistic posturing").
(2) It appears to elevate a single member of the organisation who is not well known and is of no importance.  In effect the views of a single member, Brian Precious, are given two paragraphs in a relatively short article - is he a substantial enough figure to merit that?  It seems not. 09:16, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
