Sheldon visited the country in July 2005 to the delight of his numerous committed readers here.

message: I think having a list of all the drivers included in the game is completely ridiculous, it's the sort of information you'd find on GameFAQs, but not in an encyclopedia. If the logic was applied to all articles, FIFA 07 would have a list of every player, team, and competition contained in it. Formula One 06 would also have a list of all the drivers, teams and tracks.

Talk:Sigmund Jähn

message: User Staszek Lem keeps adding a maintenance tag asking for citations but refuses to understand that this tag is no use without in-line requests for citations. He claims that he cannot add requests for citation to "every line", Well, every line doesn't require a request for citation. Anyway, if he claims that citations are missing the best thing for him to do would be to do same research work and add the citations. Unfortunately too many people in the Wikipedia, like Staszek Lem, just add maintenance tags but seem to hope they can leave the actual work to other users.

Talk:Encore (Tangerine Dream album)

message: The idea that the ending of "Monolight" is based on the adagio of the Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven seems a bit far-fetched.
The latter's famous opening theme is based on arpeggiation of the following chord sequence:
||: C#m  | C#m/B  | A   D/F#  | G#7  C#m/G#  C#sus/G#  G#7  :||
Monolight's closing section goes like this:
||:Cm  |  Ab   |  F   |  Csus/G   G   :||
If you'd transpose it up a half-step, you'd get
||:C#m  |  A   |  F#   |  C#sus/G   G#   :||
 
OK, there's a joint chord in the middle, and both sequences begin on tonic chords and end on dominant chords preceded by a suspension. So do a kajillion other chord sequences.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 132.77.4.43 (talk)

Talk:Sim Soo-bong

message: Regarding translation:
심수봉은 "당시 박정희 전 대통령을 처음 만났을 때, 미소라 히바리의 '슬픈 술'(가나시이 사케)을 첫곡으로 불렀는데 그 곡을 부른 이유는 주변의 사람들이 불러라고 권유해서 불렀던 것이다. 신문에 실린 기사에는 박 대통령이 그 노래를 듣고 '너 일본 사람이냐'며 좋아했다고 되어 있는데 사실은 그렇지 않다"고 밝혔다.
이어 심수봉은 "곡이 끝나자 박대통령은 버럭 '어디서 왜년을 데리고 왔느냐'며 화를 냈다. 이어 내가 '눈물젖은 두만강'과 '황성옛터'를 불렀더니 그제서야 한국 가수인 줄 알고 미안함을 나타내며 좋아했다"고 밝혔다.
Sim Su Bong said, "At the time when I first met president Park Chung Hee, I sang Misora Hibari's Ganasiyi Sake as the first song; the reason I sang that song is because people around suggested [or advised] that I sing it. In the newspaper article, it says that President Park heard that song and said "Are you Japanese" affably [he liked it], but that's not the truth", she revealed.
Sim Su Bong continued, "As soon as the song ended, President Park yelled [or abruptly said], "Where did you get the Japanese girl," and became angry.  When I continued with the songs [two korean songs], only then did he realize that I was a Korean singer, and showed apology [or regret], and became affable [he liked it].
Notes on translation:
좋아했다 simply means "liked" but is hard to translate in the context of the above sentences, where the affable emotion is shown at the same time as another verb action, and there is no clear object of the verb "to like".
어디(where) 서(from) 왜(Japanese) 년(girl) 을(object operator) 데리(bring) 고(and) 왔(came) 느냐(question ending): 왜 is a possibly derogatory term for Japanese, and 년 is a usually mildly derogatory term for girl or woman. However, both terms were used historically in nonderogatory ways, and 년 is not the same as "bitch." "개년" (dog woman/girl) has roughly the same meaning and vulgarity as "bitch," and not something the President is likely to have said.
The current translation implying that Park liked it when he thought Sim was Japanese, is completely wrong, and opposite of the linked article's wording.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chuniac (talk • contribs) 21:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Evergreen Nights

message: Originally the article listed Norma Jean as one of the backing vocalists on this album; however, the actual backing vocalist is Norma Jean Wright, who is listed as 'Norma Jean' on some releases, including this album, so I have corrected the article. Here are the reasons behind the edit:
- In some personal correspondence with series composer Jon Stroll, he said that some of the backing vocalists (Tawatha Agee and Brenda White-King) had worked with Luther Vandross. That would prove Norma Jean Wright is the backing vocalist here, because she also worked with Luther Vandross as well as with the other backing vocalists.
- The show's music was recorded in New York (according to Jon Stroll), where Norma Jean Wright was based, whereas Norma Jean wasn't based there. Of course, there had been singers on the soundtrack who weren't based in New York (e.g. Leo Sayer, Dottie West, Luba), but note that these were people who sang the lead vocals. For the backing vocals, they used session singers who were based in the area so they would conveniently be right there on call for when they were needed without having to travel too far, so it would make more sense for the producers to get the locally-based Norma Jean Wright to do a backing vocal session. This, along with the connection with Luther Vandross and two of the other backing vocalists, should prove that the correct backing vocalist here is Norma Jean Wright, not Norma Jean.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.45.255.101 (talk) 14:24, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
