Talk:Illuminati: New World Order

message: There's a reference to "Boy Sprouts" on the article that seems like it should be "Boy Scouts".  What's this?  It seems to have been pretty old and has survived several revisions, so I'm reluctant to change it to Boy Scouts. Almkglor 10:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "Boy Sprouts" is correct.  The Illuminati games feature a variety of organizations which are parodies of or poking fun at real companies or organizations.  In many cases the names are close to, but different from, the real names.  Presumably the desire to avoid a lawsuit and to claim that all such references are purely fictional motivates this. --Slordak 15:26, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Boy Sprouts

message: This article states the game was released in 1995, but the list of collectible card games says the game was released December 1994. Which is right? If possible please include a link here to a source that states which for sure. Mathman1550 (talk) 21:40, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The official website claims "Origins Award for Best Card Game of 1994".  However, the actual Origin Awards pages (both on Wikipedia and at the official Origins site) make no mention of the title.  Nonetheless, it seems reasonable to suspect, based on this, that it came out at the end of 1994.  --Slordak (talk) 17:43, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Release date

message: Unfortunately I don't find the source anymore, but I read somewhere long ago that Steve Jackson took all kinds of conspiracy theories and such for his cards. My explanation would be: While not explicitly mentioning the Terrorist Nuke card there, imagery of a destroyed World Trade Center was popular in pop culture already in the mid-1990s, so it seems less like a coincidence and more like Steve Jackson and the real terrorists both drawing their inspiration from those "archetypical" ideas. One website that collected a few images (at least three from before INWO) with similar imagery and other that now could look like premonitions is here: http://www.darkroastedblend.com/2007/09/september-11-premonitions.html - however, if one looks for superhero comics etc, essentially the WTC became a replacement of the Empire State Building as a NYC landmark that could be destroyed by whatever hazard. --Constructor 15:22, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Khloy

message: *Oppose merge with khlui.  These are two different instruments from two different countries (though similar in construction, the repertoires and tunings are different).  Badagnani 20:02, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge

message: These intrsuments are almost the same, if not identical to each other. It's less than the difference between a violin and a fiddle. In fact, Khloy is the Khmer pronunciation and Khlui (Khluy) is the Thai pronunciation of the same word. --Hecktor 07:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The article already says that they are very similar (although, as mentioned above, their tunings, repertoire, and playing styles are different).  However, it is not the same word, because the two words are in two unrelated languages with different scripts, and the Thai word has a rising tone, while the Khmer word has no tone.

Talk:Procedural democracy

message: The following sentences appear to be POV:
Procedural democracy is an "imperfect" minimal democracy.
Sadly, It is common that the elites use electoral procedures to maintain themselves in power against the best interests of the people, thus thwarting the establishment of real democracy.''
It is important to note that the assisting nations influence the election and the elected government, upsetting the true functioning of democracy. 
:Agreed. Emotive words such as 'sadly' should not appear in an encyclopedic article. However perhaps 'imperfect' is unavoidable.
::'Imperfect' is definitely POV, as the definition of a 'perfect' democracy is very much in the eye of the beholder. I've attempted to de-POV it some. Please add your thoughts if you don't agree with my edits. Joffeloff 17:13, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: It's not just wildly incomplete, it's confused and in a place or two just incorrect. E.g., nothing about procedural democracy requires that it be representative in form.

Talk:J. M. Dent

message: What about a listing of titles produced by J M Dent?
Would that be feasible or not?
Why is there no mention of Le Morte Darthur (illustrated by Aubrey Beardsley in 1892/93) which Dent published in 1893?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.95.59.130 (talk) 11:49, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Listing of titles 

message: Notes of JM Dent from Jonathan Rose (2001) J.M.Dent b.1849 was another working class autodidact. He saw the canonic ’great works’ as a body of knowledge that anyone could acquire given cheap editions. This realisation occurred when he was part of the Toynbee Hall Shakespeare Society. People were reading from wildly varied editions… He set out to publish 40 standardised volumes of the Temple Shakespeare (1894 - 96) edited by Israel Gollancz and designed to be read aloud. p.132. He followed the success of this with the Temple Classics - 300 of which were published by 1918. He then went on to publish the ground-breaking Everyman Library of English literature with Ernest Rhys as editor launched in 1906. It reached volume 1000 in 1956 with Aristotle’s Metaphysics. In that 50 years the canon of great literature had shifted. Most of this 1000 were out of copyright, though not all.
Also the copyright act of 1911 extended author rights for 50 years after their death. This held up the Everyman edition of Middlemarch until 1930.
The House of Dent also published proletarian writers (p.135) Thomas Okey, F.C. Boden, Roger Dataller, Rowland Kenney, James Griffiths, Harry Snell.
“By 1975 more than 60 million copies of 1,239 Everyman vols had been sold worldwide.” p.135
Certain commercial laws of price and scale helped this success as they favoured books with a long standing reputation and perhaps also some glamour of being classics of the literary class. This was bolstered by the widespread idea that (English) literature could “abolish classes and establish world peace.”
Dent certainly seems worthy of a more detailed entry.

Talk:Martín Fierro (magazine)

message: For an exploration of Jorge Luis Borges' critique of Martin Fierro, see Lonie, T. C. "Magic Causality" PhD. Thesis, Murdoch University, Perth Western Australia, 1997
For one thing, this was presumably not used as a source, so if it is at all relevant, it would belong in a separate Further reading section. But:
#What use is it to tell people to "see" an unpublished doctoral thesis?
#Is this even on topic? I doubt that it refers to a Borges critique of the magazine Martín Fierro; it presumably relates to his book about the poem Martín Fierro.

Talk:Swedish Police Service

message: The Name Swedish National Police Board or (Rikspolisstyrelsen) is a organizational level (the top level) of an organization known to the public as the police (Polisen). But there are other levels, like the county police, the sea police, police aviation unit, mountain police, security police, border police etc. The most logical thing would be to call a comprehensive article by a collective name, such as Swedish Police or Sweden's Police or Police (Sweden).--Oden 20:14, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Does the "Platform(s)" field of the Infobox really need to specify both "AmigaOS 4 (PowerPC)" and "AmigaOS (68k)"?
The " Supported platforms" section of the  Vgclegend template only distinguishes between "Amiga (AMI)" and "Amiga CD32 (AMI32)".
ProResearcher (talk) 08:34, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Without doing research, I would guess that the editor saw the difference between OS 4 (PowerPC) and OS (68k) as similar to the difference between Windows XP and Windows 7, and I believe that we do differentiate between different versions of Windows. I would side with him unless you know enough about Amiga operating systems to explain the difference. Larrythefunkyferret (talk) 06:38, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Amiga port of Heretic II requires AmigaOS 3.0 or higher (68k CPU) and PowerPC CPU (see PowerUP_(accelerator) for more informations). It can work on AmigaOS 4 (PowerPC CPU only), but was not directly ported to it.

Talk:Annazids

message: This name is a simple mis-reading of Ayyarid. The name of the dynasty was Ayyrid and the founder was also Muhammad the Ayyar, not Annaz. In Arabic orthography, the two names are written identically, but for two dots. The reading "Annazid" should be at once discarded. The Banu Annaza were and are an Arab tribe found in upper Arabia and Iraq. However, the Ayyarids were Kurds and took their name from "Ayar/Ayyar"--a name given to the adherents of the native religion of Yarisanism/Ahl-i Haqq. The following article, therefore, needs to be amended and rewritten to reflect this.
Kurdish Historian, Sharaf al-Din Bitlisi in the 16th century correctly records the name as Ayyar and gives a relatively detailed history of the dynasty. See my translation of Bitlisi's work, The Sharafnama, vol. 1., 2005.

Talk:General Jackson (riverboat)

message: This article was proposed for deletion on the grounds that the article did nor assert notability. Another editor removed the prod tag almost immediately, before I even got a chance to respond. But here's my response: At this point in American history, riverboats — even reproductions like the General Jackson that use deisel power instead of the traditional steam engines — are a rarity. (Casino boats are another mater, but since most every casino in North America has its own article, that's really another issue, beside the fact that many riverboat casinos are docked all the time and don't even resemble riverboats anymore.) Pretty much any vintage style riverboat that sails today is notable for that very reason. Additionally, the boat is the last major attraction from the now-defunct Opryland USA theme park, which was notable in its own right. It also regularly cruises away from its home port to such events as Tall Stacks. The General Jackson is certainly notable enough for a short article. Realkyhick 20:34, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
