Talk:Rio Declaration on Environment and Development

message: Originally someone just listed 12 of the 27 principles, claiming that those 12 are the main ones (no source or reason). I have now listed all the principles. Some of them could be summarised better, so if anybody wants to have a look at the original and edit, feel free. Also, I originally quoted the relevant principle under the title, however Hut8.5 thinks thats not acceptable. I assume this is because it looks too much like repeating the Rio declaration itself. Some of these principles, like the precautionary approach have become very importnat, being now recognised in a number of international and national environmental law instruments, so there is a case for adding some info on those. Other principles already have a own wiki article, like Environmental Impact Assessments, so there is some linking to be done.
There are other things that can be added over time, e.g. the drafting of the Declaration, and follow-up initiatives.
Anybody interested in expanding the Article?

Talk:Exploitation of natural resources

message: I am sending this as a notification that I soon will be contributing what are aimed to be improvements to this article. Part of this contribution will include how natural resources are exploited and the environment is both positively and negatively impacted with the introduction of first world industries into developing countries. Other aspects on the problems arising from the exploitation of natural resources, such as the various effects it has on people and animals, will also be added. These edits will be implemented by the end of the month.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jshusain (talk • contribs) 29 February 2012 (UTC) 
:What is the purpose of this page? I think this page is using two conflicting definitions for "exploitation". The first sentence refers to the concept of using a resource for economic purposes, while the rest of the article mostly talks about exploitation as the improper use of resources, often for selfish reasons. One needs to be picked and run with. Since most of the assumes the second definition, I'm inclined to rewrite the opening. Is there any reason I shouldn't?

Talk:The Long Black Veil (album)

message: All the rock stars on this album get mentioned, and most of them get blue links twice over. Isn't it strange that NONE of the members of the Chieftains gets any mention at all? Does nobody have access to the sleeve notes to tell us which of them played on this one? Ogg 19:55, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: [Untitled]

message: I removed the following information that appears to have originated at U2wanderer.org:
Bono supposedly contributes vocals to the track "Long Black Veil" but in a strange twist he is not credited in the album credits.  The information about his involvment comes from various news bits over the years, and mention of this album in discographies published by those who would know, like Niall Stokes.
The lead vocals are by Mick Jagger and The Chieftens.  Originally they were performed by Bono, but were not used.  These had been recorded at Windmill Lane.  Although Bono's vocals were not used, the instrumentals from that session were supposedly used, meaning it may be possible to hear Bono way back in the mix somewhere.'''
It appears to me that this violates the source copyright and, in any case, is insufficiently sourced. -- Kyle Maxwell (talk) 17:39, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

message: I believe it would be useful to add a more elaborate definition for the lead because in order to establish a good lead the topic should be properly summarized and eloquently explained because for all we know the reader knows nothing about the topic.

replies: text: I've made some edits to the lead, thanks for pointing out some shortcomings. It's good practice to add sources to the lead as well (although not cumpulsory) and to summarise text from the main article, i.e. you should not add content that appears only in the lead but not elsewhere.

message: Is there any point including 'Young Nation' as the Party's Youth Wing, there is virtually no coverage on this Youth Wing, and as far as i can tell the only thing relevant to it is that there is a satire facebook page (thats also completely inactive) on it
I feel as if this is giving readers the false impression that the party has some sort of active youth wing, when in reality all there is, is just a business registered under One Nation called 'Young Nation'
On the topic of the infobox, @MarioBayo recently added a membership figure to the infobox, while i think its an interesting bit of information, it is (as noted by Mario) an over 10 year old source, the circumstances since then have drastically changed, the Party has seen a massive revival since then, going from being a micro party to a well established minor party across various states
Maybe instead of being in the infobox, this info could be included in the article somewhere, perhaps under "2013–2015: Hanson's return as leader[" Auspol4 (talk) 04:16, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with this. There's been a similar discussion going on in the Australian Labor Party article about whether the Women's, LGTBQI, Young Labor, etc wings should be mentioned in the infobox and my view there was that they should be removed from the infobox and that it is best addressing in the body of the article. TarnishedPathtalk 05:37, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

text: I agree with moving 'Young Nation' information to a section within the article rather than the infobox as the news citation appears to be the only source for that aspect of the party. As for the membership numbers, the cited source is the only public figure I came across, and I believe its the only number even in the public domain that has ever been published. Although I believe it to be relevant it is fairly old as mentioned. MarioBayo (talk) 16:27, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

message: The remarkable density of archaeological sites… have shown that the hinterland of Drogheda has been a settled landscape for millennia.
But then
…in his 1978 study of the history and archaeology of the town John Bradley stated that "neither the documentary nor the archaeological evidence indicates that there was any settlement at the town prior to the coming of the Normans". The results of the numerous and often large-scale excavations… in the past ten years appear to have confirmed this statement.

message: One of the fundamental concepts behind discrete time is an implied (actual or hypothetical) system clock. If one wishes one might imagine the current atomic clock to be the de facto system clock.

Talk:EMD F2

message: The original four unit F2 demonstrator #291A1, 291B1, 291B2, 291A2 was built in July 1945. The new F2 was supposed to be a 1500 horsepower machine. But EMD could not get the full 1500 horsepower rating out of the new D12 generator in the demonstrators. The F unit production line was shut down in November 1945 with the last FTs built and EMD intended to produce the new units in 1946. But EMD did not produce another F unit until July 1946 because of the problems with the D12 generator. The F2 as-built was offered by EMD as a 1350 horsepower unit with the old D8 Generator to fill the needs of a few railroads that wanted freight diesels and could not wait for EMD to work the bugs out of the D12 generator. When the D12 generator was able to be rated at 1500 horsepower the new F3 model was announced and the F2 demonstrators became F3s.     See "EMD's F2 - An Interim Model" by Warren Calloway, Dan Cupper, and Paul Withers from Diesel Era Volume 7 Number 2 March/April 1996, pages 31-46 for the complete story. --SSW9389 (talk) 13:20, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

As PD proof Wikipedia article cites http://www.worldofspectrum.org/showwrap.cgi?permit=import/DamienBurke.html#GOLLOP which is dead, although I have managed to google-search saved citation at other places (i.e. screenshots from Gollop's games) referencing this page:
"Julian Gollop has kindly agreed to this game being made Public Domain. Anyone is freely allowed to duplicate and distribute this game for use in Spectrum emulators. It is requested that the identification of Julian Gollop as the author of this software is not removed and the code not altered."
Which clearly means that Gollop haven't intended to release the game under PD or any other free license, as he disallows modification of the software. So Wikipedia can't release screenshots containing game graphics into PD.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by NikitaSadkov (talk • contribs) 09:55, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

I am one of the current residents of Atkinson, Illinois, our moto being "Where the hell IS Atkinson, Illinois" Atkinson is a small town just a half an hour from Davenport or Moline. Technically speaking, it's more of a village. We are a byway bewteen the larger towns of Geneseo and Kewanee. We have a small elementary, a former high school that serves as the community center, a Wells Fargo bank, Ford dealership and garage, and a few small locally owned businesses. The community is quiet, but a very nice place to raise a family. Stop by and see us sometime.
:Thanks for the information! :-)  If any of it is independently verifiable (say, if the town has a web site, or if the community center is mentioned in a news article, etc.) you should add it to the article to help complete our coverage.
