Talk:150th Motor Rifle Division

message: the following contradicts writing elsewhere in the article
Red Army photographer Yevgeny Khaldei took the picture of soldiers Oleksiy Berest, Mikhail Yegorov and Meliton Kantaria of the Division's 756th Rifle Regiment hoisting the flag (called the Victory Banner) on 2 May 1945 on the roof of the Reichstag building.[1] An earlier flag had been raised the day before while the building was being fought over with remaining German soldiers. However, as the flag was raised after dusk, there was no chance to take a picture. After taking the shot with the flag Khaldei rushed back to Moscow. It was later decided that the true persons on the photo, Kovaliev and his comrade, were not politically correct. So they became Meliton Kantaria (a Georgian, like Stalin) and Mikhail Iegorev (a Russian).
as is it says kovaliev and his comrade were the true people on the photograph, but were changed to kantaria and iegorev. maybe this is true, i don't know, but it contradicts the rest of the article which says kantaria and iegorev where in the picture

thread_title:  1926 election results 

message: Article says "In the 1944 election, Canadian Forces personnel were given special ballots intended to track how they voted. Service vote results are only available for the 1st count."
This apparently was not done in any other district in the province, so that is odd.
But that appears in no standard reference of the election.
it is not mentioned in A Report on Alberta Elections nor in A Century of Democracy (Centennial series).
It is not mentioned in the official "Statement of Count of Ballots" either.
In fact armed force voters voted in separate election for one of the following: an Air force, Army or Navy rep.

Talk:Dodecenyl succinic anhydride

message: I propose to merge this article into alkenyl succinic anhydride.  Reasons:
* ASA is a collection of very similar compounds, all used for a common set of purposes (various resins, paper sizing).
* in the real world, these compounds are used as mixtures.
* Dodecenyl succinic anhydride (DSA), this article, is a mixture of isomers although it is misrepresented (not maliciously) here as a single compound.  I dont think that DSA is particularly significant.

message: I moved this section from the Burghfield article, since Omer's Gully wood is in Sulhamstead, not Burghfield. Since there is no obvious section where it belongs, I created a new one.

:"Sulhamstead's immediate neighbours toward its northern border, the A4 road, are much more populous Theale which has the nearest Theale and shops and similarly low density Ufton Nervet. Across this road is very low population and housing density Englefield."
I have been trying all day to understand the history of Sulhamstead, Sulhampstead Abbots, Sulhampstead Bannister, Grazeley and Wokefield. My particular problem is when the names changed. But I would also like to know how they all link together, and why there is not one established way to spell Sul(h)am(p)stead.

Talk:Reub Long

message: Regarding the concerns about tone on this article, I will note tht this is the primary factor with this article only being a Start class instead of B class. It starts at the beginning:
"one of Eastern Oregon’s most colorful characters. During his lifetime, he did nothing more than be himself. However, that was enough to become known throughout Oregon as a witty and wise cowboy philosopher. Even today, long after his death, Rueb Long remains the guardian spirit of Oregon's desert country"
This style is fine for a news piece in the Sunday lifestyles section, but is not the encyclopedic tone expected in Wikipedia, as Wikipedia is a encyclopedia. The rest of the article continues with this style, though here is a good example of what is expected:
"In 1938, a team of archeologists from the University of Oregon led by Luther Cressman excavated the Fort Rock Cave located on his ranch. The team found sandals made of bark and sagebrush that carbon dating proved were 9,300 to 10,500 years old. At the time, these were the oldest human artifacts ever found in North America.[3][4] The success of the Cressman dig was widely publicized, and as the team’s local host, Reub and his stories shared the spotlight." Except the struck out part, which needs some re-wording.
To quote an old TV show, just the facts ma'am. That's what Wikipedia is about, no commentary, and no points of view. Just the dry, somewhat boring facts. We let the facts speak for themselves and allow the reader to draw their own conclusions (such as Reub being a colorful character). Now, some opinions can be inserted as quotes, but otherwise let the reader decide about the subject. Also be weary of Wikipedia:Avoid peacock terms, such as guardian spirit. See FA class articles such as Elizabeth Needham, Pierre Rossier, and Charles Darwin for examples of what Wikipedia holds up as good works. I hope that helps, leave any questions here so we can keep them in one place. Aboutmovies (talk) 23:00, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:BootSkin

message: Installing BootSkin unattended is simple matter of using the /silent switch, unfortunately there does not seem to be any way of applying a skin without actually clicking the apply button in the program.
Not clear. Is this trying to say there is no way of using a skin made for installation via Bootskin without installing Bootskin? Bootskin just automates and simplifies a process you can do manually and laboriously yourself. See this discussion of startup skins.
Note that Bootskin is just the installer and switcher for the skin - you have to have created, downloaded or otherwise obtained the actual skin already. If you don't mind minor hacking about (moving and renaming system files) and don't intend to change from your new startup skin, then Bootskin is unnecessary. Centrepull (talk) 06:23, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
