Talk:Mr. McMahon

message: This is the first page in which I have ever seen a wrestling personality differentiated between the person who portrays the character. I question if this is the right way to go about things. McMahon's entire career has been in wrestling. Even his business career. I'm not recommending deletion (yet), but I do feel this article should be combined with the article for Vince McMahon. --(Smokachu) 17:17, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: This page is a mess. Way too much mundane detail, original research, wandering off-topic and poor spelling and grammar. If it's supposed to be about the character, why are there two long sections about Vince McMahon the person's pre-1997 days? And buying WCW? Talking out-of-character about Benoit? This reads like an amateur fansite right now. I'd support cutting about 70% of it (non-notable stuff and wordiness) and merging it back into Vince McMahon's wrestling career section.

Talk:Gian Francesco Malipiero

message: I removed the sentence
"Even if Malipiero rarely, if ever, dealt with dodecaphony (...)"
It seemed out of context to me. Dodecaphony is not related to breaking up with traditional forms. It's merely a system for organizing the pitches, it has nothing to do with rejecting the sonata form... And dodecaphonic composers of this period usually relied on traditional structures...
I'm sorry for my English, which is really not very good.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.168.11.85 (talk) 17:34, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Leek moth

message: Hi, I peer-reviewed this article for Behavioral Ecology. Overall, I did not make any huge changes. Mostly I just corrected small grammatical things and made syntactical adjustments that I thought made the article more readable. Also, I added some internal Wikipedia links to explain concepts, and I had to look up what sacci and ductus bursae were, so I added those definitions to the page and added a source to the reference list.

replies: text: Hi, this article is very well written and I agree with the edits made. I made some minor grammar edits throughout and added to the invasive species section by giving some examples of control. I also referenced this information. Keep up the good work!

===Article Overhaul===
Hi all,
I'll be making some pretty big changes to this article for a Behavioral Ecology class I'm taking. In particular, I'm working on sections for description, distribution, life cycle, larval host plants, parental care, predators, mating, physiology, and the moth's status as an invasive species. Just wanted to let everyone know so it doesn't come as a surprise.
Cheers,

thread_title:  Good grief 

message: The composer's "compulsion", his tendency to note the dates on which he began and finished works - sometimes in connection with other events in his life - on his manuscripts - is noted by Sciannameo (see p. 47 in his article- or Footnote 53, page 21 in the Findarticles.com version.) So 1915 for Fedra, when it was completed in 1912 - and premiered in 1913? (... This might mean 1913/5 with a 1915 revision, but if so that should be written out.) The list is filled with mistakes that some searching, finding of various sources, ... could fix... I probably made most of them myself when I created the initial stub, I know, but they've stayed there since then and the article now has mirrors of its mirrors like everything of its age on Wikipedia, which should concern anyone who's bothered a bit by that Mark Twain dictum and wants to help the truth tie its shoes faster, even truths that are, mostly, accuracy and not more critical...

Talk:Nicola Porpora

message: I find the article about Porpora to be almost an abomination. To describe him as a Baroque opera composer means to forget an important of his achievements as a composer of other musical forms (oratorio, psalms settings, antiphons, etc.)
The criticism on the bottom of the page only refers to ONE of his operas and criticizes his composition skills from a very superficial point of view. In my opinion, it is clear that the person who wrote that section doesn't really know Porpora's music to be able to write a well-founded opinion about him. Taking the wrong work from any composer can show him of his bad side, even if it is Handel, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert or any other great composer. I hope this page is not taken as basis for Wikipedia articles about Porpora in other languages. 141.54.152.17 (talk) 01:31, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I suppose to psychoanalysts, Little Hans is the greater "contribution" of Graf.  But to the cultural world, Graf is known as an innovative opera director.  When you contemplate it, "Little Hans" was not a creation of Graf, it was a creation of Freud.  I think the entire section belongs in the article under Freud, with a small sentence or paragraph in the biography. - kosboot (talk) 18:29, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

message: Dmenditto 07:20, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi all! I am a student at Rice University and I am currently working on revising the Sex workers' rights page some more to include more information about the history of the movement and mobilization of the people involved in the movement since that is one of the areas that the current page is lacking in. I have found some information about some of the celebratory days that advocates of the movement have set aside worldwide but I am looking for some more scholarly information about some major sex workers' rights organizations that operate internationally. So far I have information from a website about the international celebratory days such as www.december17.org and 	http://thesocietypages.org/sexuality/2010/03/03/international-sex-workers-rights-day/ but these sources are not very scholarly and do not address the mobilization efforts that I was looking to include on the page.

Talk:Festspiel Baden-Baden

message: I am not aware that there actually exists a “Festspiel Baden-Baden”. (The designation is in fact unused on the Festspielhaus website.) The Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, which operates without government subsidy, maintains no performing ensemble (orchestra, chorus, troupe, or ballet) and does not produce a full opera or concert season, but puts up a year-round programme of festivals, gala concerts, residencies, and tour concerts. So the “series of festivals” is in fact the bulk of what the Festspielhaus does. This page seems to me to have very little editorial relevance in parallel with that of the Festspielhaus, and should better be merged into Festspielhaus Baden-Baden#Programme.

Talk:Opera Theatre of Saint Louis

message: The article indicates OTSL presented the world premiere of Leoncavallo's La Boheme, but that can't be right--according to the Wikipedia article about this opera, it received its premiere at la Fenice in 1897, and Caruso, at least, recorded arias from it.
