message: Someone who doesn't know the film is going to be confused by the fact that the pic is captioned "hair-gel scene" but there's no mention of it in the text. No use having a pic with a caption only aimed at people who already know the movie. 81.158.1.233 (talk) 03:43, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hair-gel pic 

message: The infamous "hair-gel" scene is not mentioned anywhere in the plot description, reception, etc. Far from being a fan, I've never seen the movie, precisely because that one scene turned me off so badly. So the idea that it has been totally omitted from an encyclopedic presentation of the key details about the film seems strange and seems a way in which we fail our mission: to tell people the basics they need to know about each topic.

Talk:Love Among the Ruins (film)

message: Great. Interesting addition.
I found out only the other day that Love Among the Ruins is also a novel by Warwick Deeping, and I knew it was also a novel by Evelyn Waugh.
I suggest creating a disambiguation page. Would Love Among the Ruins (TV movie) be okay?
All the best, <KF> 18:56, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
*Yikes.  Definitely should have a disambig, then.  Your proposal sounds fine to me.  Let me know if you'd like me to create the disambig page. Katefan0 19:49, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
**Small poinot, but here it is.  Once someone is made a British peer, one is no longer addressed or referred to as "Sir" (first name), but as "Lord" (title, in the case of a baron, almost always the same as his last name).  Olivier probably deliberately set out to become Britian's first theaterical lord and most would agree that he earned that distinction.67.52.199.50 (talk) 09:10, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Custer Battles

message: I've been conducting significant research for a graduate paper on this topic, and have added some new information and changed some factual inaccuracies as well as straightened out some bias on both sides. There is so much to this case it's hard to capture it in one page, but the new changes make it a bit more complete. I've also taken out at least one link that was no longer valid or didn't work. Like a lot of other Wikepedia entries, the controversial ones start out based mostly on newsclips which are fairly biased, then evolve into a more centered approach based on primary sources. My goal in the coming weeks is to add some to the bibliography of this company, including several of the books that have featured their alleged fraud. It's a fascinating topic, as I've yet to meet one person who wasn't strongly on one side or the other regarding this company. I'm always interested if anyone has any first hand information about this company. Jpreston2008 03:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Is "creeping myrtle" just another name for periwinkle? The myrtle article makes no mention of anything called "creeping myrtle", nor does the picture look anything like periwinkle. Seems odd that there's no mention of it in either article. --Birdhombre 20:11, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: Can anybody confirm this section for the genus Vinca? I know that Catharanthus roseus (sometimes also known as Vinca or Periwinkle) has pharmacological uses and perhaps this information belongs in that article instead. MrDarwin 13:48, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The names (vinblastine, etc.) imply derivation from Vinca, but could have been named before Catharanthus was split from Vinca. It would need checking in pharmacological literature. - MPF 09:31, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Pharmacological uses?

message: The title "Periwinkle (plant)" is misleading as "periwinkle" is also used as a common name for Catharanthus roseus (and possibly other plants).  "Vinca (plant)" would be a much better title; "periwinkle" should disambig to Vinca and Catharanthus. MrDarwin 13:57, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

They are the equivalents of prince/princess, duke/duchess, etc. The down link bellow redirects to the page of the council of minister in Oman on the official website of the Omani news agency (ONA).

Talk:Contextualization

message: The sociolinguistic sense of contextualization seems totally unrelated to its use in religious contexts. If it were not for the fact that both sections are so short, I would say they should be separate pages (perhaps with a disambiguation page).Cnilep (talk) 17:51, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The first sentence in the Philosophy and worldview section is "Heisenberg admired Eastern philosophy and saw parallels between it and quantum mechanics, describing himself as in "complete agreement" with the book The Tao of Physics." 
The source for the claim that Heisenberg described himself as in "complete agreement" with the book The Tao of Physics is from the author of the book.

thread_title: Copyvio

message: I added some See Alsos and wikilinks to articles I had to scan in order to understand this one. In the Lead, the explanation that "a species evolves to use a preexisting structure" needs to be expanded/clarified. E.g. What is a 'structure'? What are some "pre-existing" structures (e.g. vestigial, cryptic variation, hitchhiker, so-far-unexpressed mutation, ????) which might be brought into play? The phrase "potentially unrelated function" is vague/abstruse. Please concretize more. Fascinating topic, and understanding evolves, for "lay" readers like me, when ideas are more bodied out.

Talk:List of stereotypical characters in the world of drama

message: If we do a merge (and it's probably a good idea), then this article should be merged into Stock character rather than vice versa.  The latter is more thorough and is general enough to cover written fiction as well as drama. --Jim Henry | Talk 17:05, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Nikolaus Gerhaert

message: Make only links relevant to the context. Too many links makes the article distracting and difficult to read. Just because it can be linked, doesnt mean it should be. The assumption is the reader is intelligent and allready knows what "wood" and "German" and "history" means. Linking to Holland is redundant since the town in Holland is allready linked too, the reader can click the town name and from there get more information. The dates should not be linked since they are not major events. There should be no links inside the title of a work. Stbalbach 23:12, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: :Well, that's your opinion. Mine, and that of most others, is different. Linking the countries and to the dates adds valuable context and is appropriate.  I like to see what else was happening in a given year. And I much prefer being able to get a direct link rather than having to do it indirectly.  Besides, in many contexts this indirect linking doesn't work.  Think for example of all the Polish towns that were formerly German, or Ukrainian places that were formerly Polish.  Your model breaks down.  The article is hardly over-wikified.  OK, maybe "wood" is too much.  Moreover, Dutch and Holland link to different things, and give a different perspective.  I'm not going to go over the three revert limit, but I'm not there yet.  I'm reverting. Just because you started the article does not mean it is yours.  Fawcett5 23:25, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I propose we consider using primary disambiguation, that is, to move Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding here (OAEP).

From personal experience replacing the hard drive, I am certain that it used SCSI for both internal hard disks and external peripherals.  In fact, the conversion to IDE happened in later models.  Does anyone know when that conversion actually occurred? Bouncey 23:23, 2005 Mar 7 (UTC)

message: I could swear anywhere else I've seen info on the LC, its non-upgraded resolutions have been listed as 512x384 in 8-bit, and 640x480 in 4-bit (plus, presumably, 560x384 in 4-bit...). You only need 150kb for 16-colour VGA after all. Is it not the monitor that's the limiting factor in that case (using repurposed EGA circuitry, perhaps, just with analogue colour - hence the limited line count?

replies: text: Further to this, are we entirely certain about the software incompatibility? 512x384 was one of the first standard colour modes, introduced with the Mac II, and it was the only mode that the 12" monitor (which long predates the LC line) was compatible with. If you made software that wouldn't run on an LC because its monitor was too small/too low rez, you'd also be freezing out all the Mac II owners who hadn't stumped up for a 13" (or larger) monitor and enough VRAM to use it. 146.90.85.13 (talk) 01:42, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
