message: This article has been moved from its French name to its Catalan name by a newly registered user who so far seems only to edit Catalonia-related articles.

Talk:Minority criticisms of The Lord of the Rings

message: These are specifically minor criticisms with no mention of notability. It specifically says it's views of a minority of people, which goes against its notability. To me, the subject seems like it's breaking NPOV by being specifically minority criticisms aimed to disparage the subject. The article subject also seems like a soapbox with propaganda. Finally, even though the claims are referenced, the references aren't necessarily notable, particularly about the idea that LotR is racist, when the referenced material argues the opposite. The idea of the phallic symbols is farfetched as well, mentioning that anything longer than it is wide can be thought of as a phallic symbol. I will concede, however, that Alex Ross is notable.
While I'm not dismissing these claims, I feel they only deserve a sentence (with the same sources) in the main LotR article without much elaboration, since they really are minor views. --Wirbelwindヴィルヴェルヴィント (talk) 04:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The article became more neutral in terms of presenting both sides of the argument since Uthanc's edit. I further edited it a bit more to make it more neutral, to remove what seemed to me like propaganda. However, this article still does not mention why it is notable, save for it's minor criticisms of a well-known work. --Wirbelwindヴィルヴェルヴィント (talk) 17:47, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The criticisms discussed in this article are only held by a minority, but this is a significant minority. While I do not agree with any of them, I've heard the racism accusations made often enough by prominent enough people to believe that they deserve more than a passing reference, no matter how silly the accusations are. (There used to be a whole article about the racism accusations, but it appears to have been deleted, which it shouldn't have been.) The accusations of plagiarism from Wagner managed to get the attention of Tolkien, to the degree that he felt it was necessary to issue a defence on his behalf (the "both rings were round" quote). I completely agree with you that the phallic symbolism criticisms are utterly ridiculous. I found the text at the talk page of the LOTR article, and included it only because I found it amusing in its absurdity. I wouldn't really object if the text were removed from this article as well. However, I will defend the sections on racism and plagiarism if they are threatened with removal. Kindest regards, Sauron's Mightiest Orc 20:34, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Separate article 

message: I find it inappropriate that the article for Sundei Ujong has been subsumed under Seremban. Seremban refers to the city (as stated originally callled Sungei Ujong), and this article ONLY discusses the city. There should be a separate article on the state of Sungei Ujong which existed long before the city, and which was one of the original nine negeri making up Negeri Sembilan. Nor do I find any significant mention of the state in this article. In the article on Negeri Sembilan, there is brief mention of the names of the nine states, and of some of their history (very brief) it is only enough to tantalized - and clicking "Sungei Ujong" brings me straight to Seremban...

Talk:Mamey, Meurthe-et-Moselle

message: Is the French commune really the primary topic of Mamey in English?  I don't see any results for the commune in the first few pages of Google results (which are overwhelmingly about the fruits).  There are a massive number of France related incoming links, but most of them appear to due to a template; there are also a substantial number of incoming links regarding Latin American topics, which certainly intend the fruit. This article is little more than a stub, and the disambiguating hatnotes contain more text than the body of the article. I'd like move this page to Mamey, Meurthe-et-Moselle, and use the Mamey article as a disambiguation for the commune and the fruits.Plantdrew (talk) 23:27, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: There is also Mamey (Guaynabo), in Puerto Rico, and redirects exist from Mameyes and Mameyes Landslide. The last two would have to be in a "See also" section to placate the deletionists, but a disambiguation page sounds good, and perhaps this one can be renamed to, perhaps Mamey (Meurthe-et-Moselle). I'm not sure how geographic page names are normally handled, though, perhaps that isn't the approved form. Richmond, for example, has pages such as Richmond, Virginia and Richmond, London.

For example, the amount of instructors and students at each location, notable celebrity apperances at various locations, and the history of each. I do not have time to provide this right now. Trickrick1985 04:26, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: First of all, indent your responses please. Your edits reflect that you're more interested in your opinion than letting anything take its course. The first time you posted that, you should have contacted me, the author, first. This was true ESPECIALLY after it was removed the first time. A yoga club is not a specific notable institution, and the United Methodist Church can be assumed to exist in almost any populous location in the US, it does not bear enumerating. The Kabbalah Centre, however, has tens of thousands of members which must seek out its locations and even move in order to be near them. They are certainly notable. If there was one in every city, this wouldn't be the case. I DO AGREE that each location needs to have an abundance of information added to it, so that it's not simply a list of cities. Just because the article is under developed does not mean it should be deleted. Trickrick1985 05:58, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Apostle (Islam)

message: The article states that the five are Ismael, Daud, Musa, Isa, and Mohammad, but the citation that it uses from USC states Nuh and Ibrahim as Messengers and does not include Ismael and Daud. The lists do not coincide with with other. Also, the problem with the former (wikipedia) list is that it does not include Ibrahim; In the Qur'an it menions in 87:19 and 53:36-37 the scrolls of Abrahim which makes him a Rasul. The problem with latter list is that it doesn't include Daud, which the Qur'an attributes the Zabur to in 4:163, 17:55, and 21:105 again making him another Messenger, and not just Nabi/prophet. Also, I have not seen in the Qur'an verses referring to neither Ismael nor Nuh as being Rasul or having books revealed to them. I will take out Ismael and put Ibrahim instead going along with both the USC citation and the verses that I gave. I will leave out Ismael and Nuh (although the latter does conflict with the citation) until someone can give a verse from the Qur'an referring to one or both of them as being a Rasul or as having a book or devine law revealed to him/them.
