Talk:Veratrum album

message: That's a fairly non-specific reference? The book referred to is just an essay, "A medical historical dissertation on the helleborism of the ancients", which appears in "Lesser Writings of Samuel Hahneman" see eg . Para 114 of the essay (which cites Pliny and Strabo) most closely corresponds to the text here. Also, Hahneman said he he didn't know what the oval seeds came from, but suggests erigeron (seaside daisy) or senecio (ragwort) - he makes no mention of reseda. It looks like that suggestion comes from another reference or is unsourced? Anyway it would improve this reference to just cite the Hahneman article in translation and/or directly cite eg Pliny. It would probably be better to mention that this is a strong emetic too, since thats what SH actually says. Bazzargh (talk) 00:11, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

message: The upcoming production version of the Beat is being called the Chevrolet Spark, but there is already a model of the same name currently being sold around the world (China, India, eastern Europe, parts of Latin America) as a rebadged Daewoo Matiz.  While we should continue to redirect it for that reason, it makes no sense to redirect the next-gen Spark to Daewoo Matiz, as it's being globally marketed as the Spark, and may or may not be Daewoo-based.  So should "Chevrolet Spark" be a disambiguation page, and if so, should the second page be something like "Chevrolet Spark (2010)", or should it still be Chevrolet Beat? --Vossanova o< 19:51, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Veratrum nigrum

message: There is no need to provide multiple citations for every single fact! It detracts from the readability of the article. A good rule-of-thumb is to provide ONE citation for each paragraph, plus one for any notable or potentially controversial statement. In such a short article there is no need to repetitiously reference the same source 5 or 6 times.
Also, this article has a long bibliography including several general works. I would say that a bibliography is usually unnecessary if you are citing so many sources inline. The impression is that you are trying to bulk it out, to make it more noteworthy!  Unfortunately it has the opposite effect. Darorcilmir (talk) 13:31, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Fit-fit

message: I've also seen a tomato (timatim?) fit-fit which resembled a salad: chopped tomatoes, onions and jalapenos mixed with lemon juice, oil and injera pieces.  Additionally there is yebeg (lamb) fit-fit in which chunks of lamb are mixed with injera pieces and broth.

message: I've removed the following sentence: "In Ethiopia, fit-fit is made without berbere while fir-fir is made with berbere." This is incorrect (or at the very least, it lacks a source). I've removed it from the article.  I would suggest instead that with fir-fir, the injera (or kitcha etc.) is cooked along with the sauce, whereas with fit-fit they are simply mixed together.

message: Does anybody know what is under the train platform at the Boyds MARC train station?  A friend and I went down in the tunnel to pass from one side of the platform to the other and there was a boarded up doorway down there.

message: To call the machine in this photograph a steam whistle is a laughable offense to the engineering institution that owns it. This, my dear friends, is a double-expansion steam engine.

message: I just removed a lot of external links that were scattered throughout this article and listed in a big section at the end.  Since it makes a big difference to the appearence of the page I wanted to let editors who are not used to Wikipedia's style know why.  We have some guidelines on external links which make the listing of links to lots of related organizations inappropriate (this is also covered by our what wikipedia is not policy).  Also, when we talk about references, we mean reliable sources that verify particular assertions in the article - they shouldn't simply be websites of the organizations mentioned.

The only third party gives a different name for the lieutenant involved (Stoneman). Probably a good idea to look for more reliable sources than those currently used.

Talk:Atheism/reasons

message: Here's the translation you asked for. However, I would advise being very cautious about using German Wikipedia as a source. German Wikipedia has a culture opposed to citing sources, so there's absolutely no way of finding out what's original research, what's simply fabricated, and what's real. This is true even of their featured articles. I have stopped editing German Wikipedia since I discovered that there, if you object to a FAC on the grounds that it doesn't cite its sources, rather than tracking down the sources and adding them, they rationalize why they shouldn't have to, and other people come along and support the FAC with no reason other than "to counteract the absurd suggestion that sources should be added". And indeed looking at :de:Atheismus I see a distinct paucity of sources, including for this section (which cited none at all before it was removed). I really don't think using either an old version or the current version of the German article will solve the weasel-word problem. </rant> Here's the translation:
:Radical-scientistic atheism: While for normal-scientistic atheists, only gods are unreasonable to talk about, their radical associates accept the existence only of things that are scientifically provable by intersubjective examination. Since this is not the case for gods and other transcendental ideas, the radical-scientistic position holds that they cannot exist.
