text: All things listed on this article about Smith come from newspapers sources.  If you believe the newspapers are lying, you should write the newspaper and get them retract their statements.  The interpol statement has been removed as it was hearsay by an interviewee.  Would you also like to contact the people of Osoyoos, Armstrong, Barrhead River, Oliver, New Westminster, etc... and their bus companies... and arena managers... and town council-people and tell them they just don't understand either?

text: What DMighton said: since we can only report what has been reported by the newspapers or other reliable sources, if you have a problem with that, your only recourse is to write those newspapers and attempt to rebut them.  As far as whether we are "ruining" Ricky Smith's life by printing published reports of his many deeds, I suggest that he did more harm to himself by doing them than by other people reporting them.

Talk:Prolative case

message: Trask's A Dictionary of Grammatical Terms in Linguistics says that "prolative" is a synonym for "benefactive", and describes the perlative case as meaning "by way of" and showing path of motion. Who's right? — Gwalla | Talk 07:25, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've always been using prolative for 'by way of', which is at least how it's used in Uralic language literature, whereas benefactive is for the person who benefits from an action.  These are not synonymous in my mind.  Its possible Trask made some mistakes though.  --Ryan 04:23, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:CADASIL

message: There are several Notch 3 abnormalities identified with CADASIL occurrences.
 There are a number of forms of DYSPLASIA associated with abnormal Notch 3 structure in a number of organisms including man.
Sometime ago while taking transmission electron micrographs of human blood vessels to identify CADASIL lesions it was noticed occasionally that striated fibre bundles with resemblance to ill-formed skeletal muscle bundles were seen in the smooth muscle endothelial cells of small blood vessels.
 When once asked to take pictures of skeletal muscle-tendon-bone "junctions" views similar to those in CADASIL cases external to the muscle cells, entering muscle cells with similar appearance to the Granular Osmiophilic dense deposits of the CADASIL lesion - the muscle fibre striation of course being here well formed.
 {i had tried to interest people in examining the possibility that the blood vessel fault induced by the pathological Notch 3 gene was DYSPLASTIC - smooth muscle tending to skeletal, but since i worked in a diagnostic, non-research area i was unsuccessful}
 Tendered, with apologies if this seems ridiculous, thanks, Julian Ophel, julo@pax.apana.org.au.

message: The article would be better labeled just 'CADASIL' as it is not just a syndrome, but a clearly identifiable disease, with known genetic mutations.
199.231.28.148 (talk) 17:58, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: This was a fair point to consider in the case of this particular entity, because actual usage in the medical literature uses "CADASIL" more than "CADASIL syndrome" (as seen in skimming article titles at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=CADASIL%5BTitle%5D&cmd=DetailsSearch). Plus, looking at most of the related DB pages shows the same thing (OMIM 125310, DiseasesDB 2161, MeSH D046589, Orphanet 136). For various other entities, the argument would not apply, because as explained at article "Syndrome" and at section "Disease § Terminology", long-established usage sometimes persists after the nosology and pathophysiology become better understood. This is why, for example, Down syndrome is still commonly called "Down syndrome" even though it is long since a distinct disease entity with known etiology. But in this instance, WP:Common name supports the suggestion, so I did a WP:MOVE accordingly. Quercus solaris (talk) 02:01, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: Because he converted to Islam. Wikipedia is extremely bad on religious issues or mentioning the religious histories of people. Because of that it failing to mention his conversion doesn't mean much. If you need sources on his conversion see the following links.

Talk:Madeleine Carroll

message: Just a couple of comments/questions about the headers.  Firstly, was she ever actually called "English Rose"?  If so, it needs to mentioned, and attributed to a source within the text rather than only in the header.  Using it just in the header suggests that the term has been coined by Wikipedia.  If this is the case it should be removed.  It should only be used, I believe, if it was a genuine tag given to her during her career, that she was well known by.  Examples of this are "The It Girl" (Clara Bow) and "The Oomph Girl" (Ann Sheridan).  These names were coined for publicity, but they stuck.  Is "English Rose" the same?  I don't know much about Madeleine Carroll, but I've not read it before.  
Secondly, the next header is about her becoming a Hitchcock blonde, which to me is a too-specific header that is only addressed by the first paragraph of the text that follows.  If this is a work in progress I won't interfere by changing it, but if the Hitchcock reference is not going to be expanded upon considerably, the header should be changed to something more generic such as "Career".

message: The second paragraph of the article, making an unjustified use of the passive voice, says that the "vision" of Dwight Moody founded the subject firm.
Indeed?  How did that "vision" found anything?  Did Moody himself found it?  Or did someone else do so with the encouragement or inspiration of Dwight?
The attached page is supposed to be an article in an encyclopedia, not a piece of marketing fluff containing dreamy expressions and fuzzy generalities.
Already I have enough items on my do list, and I'm not intensely interested in the Moody world, so I prefer not to start researching that matter myself.
However, since others do care about that subject, I strongly encourage one of you or them to find out and fill in.
Also I likewise strongly encourage the use of the active voice, following a simple template: "Blank founded blank by ...."
Please recall that the active voice is usually much more preferable than the passive voice.
