message: People who remove "unsubstantiated" information on his family and or ethnicity are out of line, as a member of his family I know this information to be true and it should be left alone. It has been stated previously that a member of the family added the information so it should be left untouched. Other members of his family have had success in various forms and it deserves to be recognized in the article, when other people have successful family members it is almost always included in their articles to recognize that success of the whole family.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Richstevefuture (talk • contribs) 07:21, 21 December 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Companion (Firefly)

message: The AFD closure as Redirect→Firefly (TV series) appears to have not been the consensus outcome.  In fact, it appears that there was no clearcut consensus due to low turnout in the discussion and the question of whether to redirect to the series article or Inara Serra was unresolved at closure.  I don't want to take this to DRV, though, as I think it is not worth the effort at this time from my point of view.  For another closer to this article set, though, it might be well worth the time. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 17:44, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Sorry, but I'd really like to see a bit more effort made here to preserve this information.  The "redirect" discards it all, which seems like a very poor way to treat the work done on this article.  Can we leave this article up until we can find a home for all the info that is otherwise lost?  Also - I have to agree with the above poster - there really wasn't a strong consensus one way or another to make this change.  (Three people offering mild opinions - one of them, citing a proposed guideline - does not a consensus make.)  In any case, I think it's better for an project whose stated vision  includes collecting and preserving "the sum of all knowledge" to be so careless in tossing knowledge away.

* recognized words faster
* saw mistakes quicker
* recalled the words better after a period of time
* could apply letter blends better to similar words, e.g. night, light, might
* had improved skills in encoding (spelling) and decoding (reading) unfamiliar words

Talk:I Get Wet

message: ----
"To achieve the effect, W. K. struck himself several times in the face with a doorknob during the photo shoot, then added pig's blood to produce a satisfactory amount of blood."
-Does anyone have a reference for this?  And is this what the artist/label has told us was done to achieve the cover photo, or what some objective third party reported?  To play the skeptic, he's either a great shot with a doorknob and doesn't bruise easily - or this isn't what was done.  It also sounds little too "metal cliche" to be accurate, IMHO.  Either way, a citation would be nice.

Also, I think it might be pertinent to mention that the cover of the album was concealed in the US as well, obscured by a black bar/sticker that didn't reveal the lower half of his face until the outer wrapper was removed. 75.2.26.73 21:44, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Nykvist blamed himself, because his job took him away from his family for three or four months at a time and he said he
had been a bad, inattentive father. In old age he said that the loss of his child was the worse thing that had happened, 
and he carried the weight of it "like lead in his heart" to the end. Because this event affected Nykvist so deeply, it should be 
mentioned in the article.

Talk:Michael V. Ciresi

message: The article asserts, without citation, that Ciresi's fee was not negotiated with the plaintiff (the state of Minnesota).  I consider that highly unlikely and probably misleading.  I'm removing the statement pursuant to WP:BLP.
In several states, the pattern was this: The lawyers representing a state negotiated a contingent fee with the state before bringing the case.  When the case was settled, the court intervened in the fee arrangement.  The lawyers ended up getting far less than they were entitled to under their pre-existing fee agreements with their clients.
If that's what happened in Minnesota, it might be technically accurate to say that Ciresi's actual fee wasn't based on his negotiated agreement with his client, but the whole tone of the discussion is to paint him as a greedy s.o.b. who made a lot of money.  In that context, the statement implies that he went behind his client's back to gouge a higher fee, which is probably the opposite of what happened. JamesMLane t c 04:11, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
