Talk:Vince DiCola

message: I don't understand what Vince DiCola has pioneered. Rocky IV is certainly not the first use of either sequencers (e.g. Raymond Scott used sequencers in the 60s), the Fairlight CMI (Peter Gabriel used it extensively for his 1982 album), or the Synclavier II (e.g. Michael Jackson's 'Beat It' from 1982).
I think that sentence should be changed to him simply being a user of the Fairlight CMI and the Synclavier II.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jakobschmid (talk • contribs) 09:25, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

message: How could DiCola have won an Apex award for "The Touch" when that song was a Stan Bush song, originally done for a different movie, not Transformers?

Talk:Vince Hill

message: The only source given for this is the BBC biography by Pete Chambers who says that Brendan Dugan had a #1 hit in NZ with a song written by Vince Hill & Ernie Dunstall. 
This article does not give the song's title, and I can find no evidence for such a hit by Dugan. See, for example, this NZ chart achive, or Dean Scapolo's New Zealand Music Charts 1966-1996. The only charting songs by Brendan Dugan I've found are a #4 in 1975 and a #12 in 1982, and neither is a Hill-Dunstall composition.
However, a Hill-Dunstall composition "Why Or Where Or When" was a #1 hit in NZ in 1968, recorded by NZ singer Mr Lee Grant. Scapolo's New Zealand Music Charts lists it as a #1, as does the Mr Lee Grant Wikipedia article. (There are no real chart sources for NZ until 1966.)  It was also released by Vince Hill the previous year, as a B-side.
I'll edit accordingly if nothing turns up to contradict this.
More on the Mr Lee Grant song: here and here.

Talk:Vincent Simone

message: I have removed this information as I think it has been presented in a biased way- the article cited indicates there was some reason behind what happened and this is not mentioned. In addition, it doesn't seem to have gone anywhere- the article mentioned Bury Trading Standards were investigated, so what happened here? I suspect nothing happened, which suggests it isn't really noteworthy enough to be included in an article detailing the main events of Simone's career.
In addition, the User Talk page of one of the people contributing appears to me to be set up by the owner of the website(User:Ros1066), which suggests to me the contribution is an attempt to raise its profile (WP:CONFLICT?) rather than to 'report an unbiased account of historical events'.Gingernut1015 (talk) 20:06, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree - I've removed the latest version. It's possible that a wider-based section, referring to some of the problems that Vincent & Flavia's professional partnership suffered because of their personal problems, and using this as an example, might be appropriate, but even then it'd be borderline I think.

Talk:Cellular router

message: This article has a number of problems because it:
# does not conform to the neutral point-of-view, specifically there is a commercial bias in the details,
# provides an incomplete list commercial cellular routers which is an ongoing maintenance problem,
# appears to have a U.S. focus, although a particular country is not inherent in the subject matter.
Initially I had thought to propose this article for deletion because once the commercial material is removed, the article would be better suited in the Wiktionary.  
Alternately, I propose to keep the article but:
# remove the obvious marketing material associated with the product list,
# update the list of commercial cellular routers, limited to make, model, and web links in tabular form,
# remove the references to the U.S., mention cellular routers from the world over.

Talk:Basil of Ancyra

message: I believe the author of this article is confusing Basil of Ancyra, the priest, and Basil of Ancyra, the bishop of Ancyra who twice succeeded Marcellus as bishop.  I know very little about the former, other than that he was not the bishop of Ancyra.  Basil, the bishop, was a semi-Arian who supported the homoiousion doctrine; far from supporting or defending Marcellus, he wrote a book Against Marcellus (see Jerome Vir. Ill. 89).

*A new main article is now History of the Jews in the Arabian Peninsula that summarizes the Jewish histories within and connected to the areas of all the present countries in the Arabian Peninsula.
*The History of the Jews in Saudi Arabia is now part of a set of nine articles that relate to the nine countries in the present day Arabian Peninsula, as follows:
**History of the Jews in Iraq
**History of the Jews in Jordan
**History of the Jews in Bahrain
**History of the Jews in Kuwait
**History of the Jews in Oman
**History of the Jews in Qatar
**History of the Jews in Saudi Arabia
**History of the Jews in the United Arab Emirates
**Yemenite Jews

I did so because (1.) all three of these channels are relevant, because they all feature works of the artist this article is about, and (2.) all of them are the official channels of the artist/choirs, so as to my knowledge there are no copyright issues here. Then a bot automatically deleted these links. I re-added the link to Miller's official youtube channel after reading the relevant sections of the guidelines and hope this is OK. I don't know if re-adding the other two official yt channels would be OK, I don't see any copyright violations there, but the guidelines say that too many external links are unwanted and I'm unsure what is and what isn't allowed/wanted here. --Beharder (talk) 04:33, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
