Talk:Faith (song)

message: #REDIRECT Talk:Faith (disambiguation)
I believe that the organ solo at the beginning of this song is an instrumental version of "Freedom" (the Wham song, not "Freedom 90".)
The article Faith (Limp Bizkit single) should be merged with this one (as per the present merge request). Practically all other cover's are mentioned in the original song's article, why treat this song any differently?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.107.138.63 (talk) 18:46, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Talk:The War of Souls

message: This edit removed lots of in-universe content. I link to them here per WP:PRESERVE in case someone wants to reuse it. Diego (talk) 11:37, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the big problem with this article is that "War of Souls" is both a book trilogy, and a fictional war described therein, and instead of sticking with one it tries to address both simultaneously.  Lots of other similar situations deal with each separately, and maybe they should have been split instead.  For now, the AFD may swing towards a keep, and if so they can be split apart afterwards.

thread_title: Calling experts

message: I have an old Urvan as a farm vehicle, though we have had it since new back in the 1980s. The exterior is silver with a mostly purple/blue decal/pinstripe running the length of the body. It seats nine (in 3 rows of 3), and has the original tan fabric interior.  It looks nothing like any of the Nissan Caravans featured in the Nissan Caravan article.
When we bought it the dealership was changing over from being called Datsun, to  Nissan, but the vehicle is badged as a Nissan Urvan.
I have found these three other articles (Datsun Urvan, Nissan Vanette and Nissan Van C22 (Vanette)), but I am unsure of the connections between the different car models.  The latter two articles are up for merge.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, in clearing up the confusion/making the articles clearer.

I have a 1989 moden with the E24 body shape and a sort of PTO off the back of the gearbox which drives the front wheels.
Front suspension is by torsion bars instead of coil springs, I think the front end may be similar to the Navara
Can anyone give me more details?

message: I'd actually like to see it turned into "Nonwovens".  Its more often used as the noun  form to describe these types of fabrics and while Nonwoven can be a noun its usually an adjective.

Talk:Chad Allen

message: One of the sentences in the article says " His first dramatic work came at age six, in a pilot for a television series that never went into production, Cutter to Houston."
The pilot for "Cutter to Houston," according to two websites was in 1983.  Chad Allen was born in 1974.  Subtracting 1974 from 1983 = 9 years.  So there is no way he could have been 6 when he did that pilot, right? He was nine.  Incidently, it doesn't mention him on the IMDB entry for "Cutter to Houston" either. /shrug  --Naha|(talk) 04:32, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: *Sometimes a show has gone a while between pilot and series so maybe it's possible he filmed the "Cutter to Houston" pilot when he was 6. (The first pilot for "All in the Family" was filmed in 1969, but the show didn't make it to air until 1971, having changed its title, some of the cast, the character names, and its network between the first pilot and first airdate.) However, "Cutter to Houston" did go into production and was shown as a series, even if not for a long time, so the sentence doesn't make sense either way. --Metropolitan90 03:03, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Photopsin

message: This article, like all literature on the subject, treats the -opsins in terms of wavelength. But is it wavelength they are sensitive to, or frequency?

Talk:Rabbit's foot

message: I recall hearing that at one time in Europe, a foot was left on skinned rabbits for sale, so that the buyer could be sure he was not getting a cat.  Both animals look similar when skinned if the heads are missing.  I don't have any source for this other than oral folklore, so I'm not adding it to the article yet, but I thought it should be mentioned here. Rooster613 14:08, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Also European tradition?

message: I copy this from another site because it keeps me from a lot of unnecessary explaining...
--------------------------------- cut/paste ----------------------------
Superstitions, such as a rabbit's foot being considered lucky, grow out of man's attempts to explain the unknown. When man disproves the old belief, and some still cling to the belief, it becomes a superstition, such as in the instant case. In Western Europe, prior to 600 B.C., man considered rabbits to be sacred, because of their belief that spirits inhabited the bodies of animals, and also because of their belief that man directly descended from a select few of these animals.
Later, the ancient European Celts adopted portions of the older belief, that rabbits were sacred, and that spirits inhabited their bodies. The Celts, based upon the fact that these animals spent an inordinate amount of time in their underground burrows, held the belief that the rabbits' bodies were inhabited by numina, underground spirits with whom they communicated at very close proximity!
Another reason the Celts held the rabbit to be sacred, was because of their prowess in the field of reproduction. They believed that the numina intended for rabbits to be put upon pedestals and revered as symbols of procreation, reproduction with a high turnover rate, of health, and of prosperity.
Since the rabbit itself was considered to be lucky, it follows that any of its body parts would also be considered lucky. People selected the rabbit's foot to tote around for good luck, because of its capacity to dry quickly and its small size.
--------------------------------- end cut/paste ----------------------------
This article is therefore narrow in it's view and needs to include other groups that considered the rabbit foot lucky. Weblo (talk) 23:33, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  I agree on the European tradition 

message: I'm considering removing this section as there is no evidence for it, not even any from folklore or even folkmagic. The use of a rabbit's foot, as well as parts from other animals, is not done because it is a substitute for a human bone or the bones of a witch. It is done because the animal itself has a symbolic meaning to humans. Rabbits breed fast and much, giving them the symbolism of prosperity. There is a long trend of equating sex with luck, hence the phrase "Getting lucky tonight" to reference having sex.BoyintheMachine (talk) 17:27, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article name 

message: Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:
#WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information."  As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.  
#As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced. 
# WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article. 
#Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.
If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable.  Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 03:11, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
