message: I have moved this paragraph here from the article.
:Abra is Spanish for a not wide bay, but the Dictionary of Royal Spanish Academy derives it from French havre, a cognate for "haven". It names the Abra bay on the Bilbao Estuary.
The fact that Abra looks vaguely like Aber is no reason for inclusion here.  Do you have a reference to a scholar who disagrees with the Spanish Academy and sees them as connected?  Despite the fact that there was once such a thing as Celtiberian, I would be very surprised to find Celtic forms in Spanish. --Doric Loon 12:26, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Gümüşhacıköy

message: The connection between Gümüşhacıköy and the ancient Etonia is outmoded. E. Olshausen and J. Biller in their Historisch-geographische Aspekte der Geschichte des Pontischen und Armenischen Reiches (Wiesbaden, 1984) tentatively identify Gümüşhacıköy with an ancient settlement called Diakopa (vol 1, p. 126). The Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World (Princeton, 2000) follows their identification (map 87). Olshausen and and Biller do not attempt to connect Etonia with any modern place (p. 127). Though Etonia remains effectively unlocated, Turkish language sources and no doubt local tourist literature continue to associate Gümüşhacıköy and Etonia. The attribution ought to be avoided in this article. I shall remove Etonia from the lead and the sentences about Roman Gümüşhacıköy from the article. Gümüshbazar (talk) 21:17, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

One point that you should think about is the name of the article. Please consider renaming it to "Sung Siew Secondary School" or "Sung Siew Secondary School (Sandaken)" in order that you don't have to change it later when other schools arrive.

Talk:Matt Bielby

message: This is the first page I've contributed to Wikipedia and within minutes of posting it's been marked for deletion due to not reaching the required 'notability guideline'. I'd be interested to know why... my suspicion is that the person who marked the page simply doesn't know anything about/has no interest of the UK magazine industry. But I really don't think ignorance is a valid enough reason.
I added the page because several pages on Wikipedia reference Matt Bielby with red broken links (Amiga Power,
SFX magazine, Zero (magazine) - plus dozens of other pages make unlinked references), and also because he's launching a new magazine, Death Ray (for which I've also added an entry), that is seriously big news to fans of science fiction - especially as the magazine is launching as a direct competitor to the legendary SFX, which was also launched by Bielby. In addition, he's behind some of the UK's best-loved computer and videogames magazines and his influence has been felt far beyond the titles he's worked on as other publications have adopted the irreverent style he helped pioneer. Basically, if you grew up with videogames in the UK, from the ZX Spectrum to PlayStation 2, and have any kind of passion for magazines, you'll know who this guy is.
I admit that my entry probably needs a bit of tidying up - as I say, this is my first time posting anything on Wikipedia, and the formatting of articles takes a bit of getting used to. But I thought the whole point of Wikipedia was for users to contribute pages and others to refine them – though if all the effort that takes gets trashed because some 22-year-old from Hicksville isn't interested, then I don't really see the point in bothering.

replies: text: Bialorus.pl is the portal of Belarusian minority of Poland, co-financed by Polish Ministry of Internal Affairs. The same article is also available here. Both are online versions of the article published in „Białoruskie Zeszyty Historyczne” (НА СТАРОНКАХ КАМУНІКАТУ, Biełaruski histaryczny zbornik) 20 (2003), p. 186-188. This is a publication by Białoruskie Towarzystwo Historyczne (Bielorusian Historical Society) in Białystok.  See also . Polish ministry lists the organization and the publication as 'one of the biggest Belarusian organizations/publications' in Poland.  The publication itself also receives financial aid from Polish government.

thread_title:  An example of normal recent usage? 

message: Kodály did not invent tonic sol-fa; state that he did is simply incorrect. Any standard reference (e.g. Grove Online) will clearly explain that it was developed by Curwen, based on Glover.
Kodaly also did not invent the hand signs. Curwen had a full system of hand signs. the Kodaly method adopted this entirely from Curwen, though some of the individual signs are different.
Furthermore, as the Wikipedia article "Kodály Method" makes clear, the Kodály method was developed at Kodály's instigation, but the actual development and elaboration of the pedagogical method was accomplished by his disciples.
Tonic sol-fa notation uses its own system of rhythmic notation, which ought to be explained in this article, and which was NOT carried over into the Kodály method.
It is a major misreprentation to identify tonic sol-fa with the moveable-do solfège of the Kodály method. Tonic sol-fa uses moveable-do solfège as one of its components; it was responsible for popularizing moveable-do solfège, but it was neither the first nor the only development it this direction.

thread_title:  Distinction 

message: Hello!
For my English project, I have to edit and/oror add to a Wikipedia page, and this is the one that I have chosen! I'm pretty sure it's recommended to tell the talk page what I plan to change and/or add, so that's what this is. I found a piece of writing (possibly considered a short book) written by the beloved Sol-faist John Curwen. It goes into a lot of detail about the notation and teaching of Tonic sol-fa. I won't go into the teaching method, but I was planning on adding to, and perhaps changing a little bit, the current notation section on this Wikipedia page.
I haven't gone through the act of citing the source yet (even though I know it is a simple task), but once I do, I will add it to the list of references on the actual Wikipedia page, and I will edit this post and add it on here too.
