Talk:The Yale Book of Quotations

message: I removed the warnings as to sourcing and tone.  I believe the sourcing warning was not well-taken in the first place, as it should be clear that the article is primarily based on The Yale Book of Quotations, an authoritative reference book itself.  For the NPOV concern, I added a comparison to Bartlett's to show that its coverage of traditional literary quotations is more extensive than Yale's.  John M Baker 00:08, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

However, the article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanstaafl
states that: "The earliest known occurrence of the full phrase, in the form "There ain’t no such thing as free lunch", appears as the punchline of a joke related in an article in the El Paso Herald-Post of June 27, 1938, entitled "Economics in Eight Words".[8]"

Talk:International Feminist Journal of Politics

message: Hi
I'm the Managing Editor for the International Feminist Journal of Politics. The current information on the journal's Wikipedia page is out of date, so I would be grateful if it could be amended as follows.
1. Please change this:
The current editors-in-chief are Heidi Hudson (University of the Free State), Laura Sjoberg (University of Florida), and Cynthia Weber (University of Sussex).
To this:
The current editors-in-chief are Brooke A. Ackerly (Vanderbilt University), Elisabeth Jay Friedman (University of San Francisco), Meenakshi Gopinath (Women in Security Conflict Management and Peace, WISCOMP) and Marysia Zalewski (Cardiff University).
This also needs amending in the sidebar.
2. Please change this:
According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2015 impact factor of 0.970, ranking it 67th out of 161 journals in the category "Political Science" and 19th out of 40 journals in the category "Women's Studies".
To this:
According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2017 impact factor of 1.031, ranking it 100th out of 169 journals in the category "Political Science" and 19th out of 42 journals in the category "Women's Studies".
The corresponding reference should be changed to: "Journals Ranked by Impact: Political Science". 2017 Journal Citation Reports. Clarivate Analytics. 2018.
The impact factor details also need to be amended in the sidebar.
3. While the journal's pages on the Taylor & Francis website are still active (and so the links to that are fine), it would also be great if the Wikipedia page could also include a link to the journal's own site: www.ifjpglobal.org.
If anything is unclear, please do contact me.
Thanks

Talk:Absolutego

message: Yesterday I deleted the part of the article that said that Absolutego was the only non-collaboration C.D. to be "one long song," stating my reasoning for doing so that the Boris album flood is also one long song, which is what the article says. But according to user Olliegrind Flood is divided into four parts. Who is correct? Olliegrind or the person who first made the Flood article? Additionally, it should be noted that only the original edition of Absolutego is one long song, the re-release on Southern Lord contains a bonus track completely unrelated to the long song. Furthermore, the Boris album Boris At Last: -Feedbacker- is also one long song, and the article for this album even states that two other albums before it, Absolutego and Flood, consisted of singular long songs. What is the deal? Julian Maestas 22:50, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: While Absolutego, Flood, Sun Baked Snow Cave and Feedbacker are all albums that contain 1 long song, both Flood and Feedbacker have the song broken up into different tracks. The person who made the Flood article most likely used the track listing printed on the CD, which states only 1 track (but in reality is incorrect since it is broken up into 4 tracks). The only 2 albums which contain only 1 song and 1 track are Absolutego and Sun Baked Snow Cave. Olliegrind 11:17, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't understand the edit warring over putting in a state football championship for either 1964 or 1965. St. Joe did not win a state football championship in either of those years, I promise you. Why? Because Indiana didn't even have a state football championship tournement until 1974. If by chance you are trying to say they were "top-ranked", which would be the closest equivilent, that would need to be referenced. And IMHO, it wouldn't qualify as equal to a championship unless St. Joe was ranked #1 in both the AP and the UPI polls. John from Idegon (talk) 18:06, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

message: A map to show where it is on the surface of the earth.  How many square kilometers of outcrop are there?  How many years ago did it form, is there a finer subdivision than "Triassic"?
A micrographic cross section.
Where is it quarried now?
There should be more description of the grain size, how the beds may vary, what is above and below in the stratigraphic sequence. (there is mention, but not very clear)  What is the type location and is there a formal definition?  What is the context? eg delta on the  east coast of Gondwana with passive oceanic margin.
Does this contain oil or gas, mines, minerals or fossils? Is there a soil analysis showing that nutrients are poorer than elsewhere. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:12, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I take your point about the need for more on the geology. I still have quite a bit to do on the changing attitudes to the use of the stone as well as the section about quarrying it but I will add more to the geology where I can. The detailed science is outside my field of expertise. More should be added to that part and maybe someone can do it. There is a link in it already to Sydney basin where it is found. The way that this stone has influenced the character of the city takes the article beyond the strict geology and so I think that the link to Hummelstown brownstone was legitimate. As a reader of the article, I found it helpful. Whiteghost.ink 01:27, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Hummelstown brownstone could be linked if there was a statement in the article about why it is related, as there would be hundreds of building stone types around. I will add some more on detailed geology later! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 03:08, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

:"Blatant advertising. Pages which exclusively promote a company, product, group, service, or person and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Note that simply having a company, product, group, service, or person as its subject does not qualify an article for this criterion; an article that is blatant advertising should have inappropriate content as well. If a page has previously gone through a deletion process and was not deleted, it should not be speedily deleted under this criterion.
