Cleaned up, and removed the cleaned up tag. FatherGuidoSarducci 08:17, May 5, 2005 (UTC)
I know the discussion page isn't for discussing the topic, I must say, I absolutely loathe this show. I only came here to see if the article pointed out the fact that the main character encourages people to think of horrible torture situations to put their 'enemy' in. Star Rating: 0/10 Should not be viewed by anyone. Roxybudgy 09:24, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Erm, just because the main character does it doesn't mean that everyone else on the planet should. It's not encouraging unless you twist reality to a point where you take everything on tv as "encouraging."--Claude 04:27, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The cartoon admittedly isn't for everyone but fans of the show would LIKE this page I am sure. It's written quite well and seems to capture the flavor of the characters, although I have never seen it. I have taken out some of the adolescent feel of the text but left enough to satisfy the younger fans. In a page like this I would think that a bit of 'fan feeling' should be left in, no? --Byron Bell (talk) 17:21, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I have gone through the article completely, removed many of the unnecessary plot descriptions, removed many expressions of opinion, such as "apparently", "as a result", etc., and added several links to words and terms that a younger reader might not know. At this point, I think the article is fine, keeping in mind it's explaining a cartoon program aimed at children.

Talk:Rook (chess)

message: Just thought I'd mention that in "Wizard Chess", as played in the Harry Potter stories, the pieces are always called "castles", never "rooks". I don't know whether JK Rowling made a deliberate decision to do this, or whether she calls them "castles" in regular chess as well. 86.143.51.72 14:15, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hopefully she uses 'castle' not 'castles' which would be more ambiguous as it refers to the special action of castling. The use of castle by JK Rowling would make a lot of sense however as in a book you are trying to paint a picture with words, and a rook certainly looks like a castle.

thread_title:  Use of "castle" 

message: Hello again,
A few months ago I asked about the book "The history of chess" by Forber (1860) as a realible source and you guys told me it wasn't. Well, I bought Murray (1913) book and it state at page 79-81 that the piece with rook's move was called elephant in some variants. The most notable is chaturaji (four handed chess) (p.58) where the piece with rook's move stand close to the king. I think you should put this in this article. Regards, OTAVIO1981 (talk) 12:59, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't follow the earlier discussion.  What you say is true, but that is in a variation that was played 1,000 years ago, and it was not a predecessor of modern chess (i.e. it was a different branch in the lineage).  Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 15:40, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Category talk:Nymphs

message: :"Articles on specific nymphs should be added only to this category, whereas articles on nymphs in general should be added both to this category and to the Greek mythology article."
I'd disagree with that; as this category is already a subcategory of Greek mythology, this just creates redundancy. Plus, what do we do with articles where the name applies to both an individual nymph and a classification? -Sean Curtin 01:32, 5 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Heh. I'd just remembered to come by and fix that myself. When I first wrote it, categories were brand spanking new and the guidelines for dealing with such redundancies were in flux; I left that note simply to describe how I'd been handling the situation myself at that point so that there'd be consistency. I've since fallen firmly in line with the official avoid-redundancy camp. :) Bryan 20:49, 5 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Southeast Asia

message: I believe the current lead does not appropriately sum up the history of the region. It focusses disproportionately on the region's interaction with foreign powers (Mongols, Europeans, Japanese) and also on more recent events.

Talk:Günter Schabowski

message: What exactly was the "misunderstanding" mentioned in the article? --Furrykef 03:19, 5 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I think, he was supposed to announce that the travel restrictions (which forbid East Germans to travel to Western countries) were reduced, but he instead announced that they were completely abandoned. (But, personally, I wonder whether this misunderstanding was really an accident or maybe intended... At least, only a year earlier, the border guards certainly wouldn't have opened the gates without an official command by their superior but just because of a TV broadcast of a rather low-ranking politician.) Simon A. 14:58, 25 Sep 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: According to this statement by Schabowski himself the reason was that he announced the law before it was actually enacted. --MrBurns (talk) 00:40, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

message: I feel this article is biased in favor of Schabowski.  In the last paragraph, it says "Because he accepted his moral guilt and renounced the GDR he was sentenced to only 3 years in prison."  His acceptance (whether genuine or not) of moral guilt does not justify a shorter prison term.  Rather, the shorter term and the following pardon should be recognized as political acts.
I am not directly involved with this article, but only came to read it because of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.  I hope other people who have a stake in the truth will come forth and fix this article.  For years, East German guards fired on their citizens trying to cross over to West Berlin, and it would be an injustice to those people killed/wounded/captured for this article to show Schabowski as someone other than who he really is.  I visited West Berlin in 1980 and due to travel restrictions, had to first land in East Berlin, and then travel with bus to West Berlin.  I can tell you that I was thorougly spooked going through the East Berlin airport and being checked for documents by the East Berlin police.  And I only had to live through that for what, an hour?  People like Schabowski deserve no sympathy.
Todd (talk) 22:37, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as this Wikipedia article is concerned, it is irrelevant whether or not Schabowski was sincerely contrite or whether his sentence reduction was or was not a "political act". What matters is only what was officially avowed. Everything else is merely the subjective opinion of Wikipedia editors. 64.134.32.112 (talk) 14:54, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Title spelling 

message: Two items. There is a redirect for cecal to go to the cecum article. In this case, cecal is used as an adjective, e.g., cecal carcinoid tumor. It's also used in ileocecal. But the user should really be given the choice to also choose Cecotrope.  A hatnote could be used (rather than disambiguation) since there are only 2 relevant articles.  In the disambiguation help file, it says to choose a Primary Topic. For the cecum article, the cecal term is used as a adjective. For the cecotrope article, it's a noun & cecal is another name for cecotrope so I was wondering if the cecotrope article should be the Primary Topic. 
Item two; caecal also redirects to cecum, but that word is not used in the article. It's an alternative spelling to cecal but since it's not in the article, should it be a redirect to the Cecotrope article (which does contain the word caecal)?
