"According to the testimonies we have gathered, the rebels have used chemical weapons, making use of sarin gas," del Ponte, a former war crimes prosecutor, said in an interview with Swiss radio late on Sunday.
"We still have to deepen our investigation, verify and confirm (the findings) through new witness testimony, but according to what we have established so far, it is at the moment opponents of the regime who are using sarin gas," she added.

message: Can somebody throw light on one particular overlooked fact: Del Ponte became prosecutor at ICTY in 1999. The ICTY is a UN product and subsequently its personnel (judge, jury, preosecutors, security officers, clerks, translators et al) are deployed by the participating governments, appointed by their foreign offices. Del Ponte is Swiss and prior to 2002, Switzerland was not a member of the UN. Del Ponte was at all times paid the Swiss tax payer but in 1999, the country had no representation in the UN as this was a period when it boasted neutrality.

Talk:Honkin' Down the Highway

message: A slightly edited version was released on a single, in which the drum machine intro is cut off. The same version erroneously appeared on the 1991 cassette and CD reissue of 'The Beach Boys Love You' on the Caribou label.
Glad to see an explanation for why I liked this song so much better when I had the cassette!  Not only is the drum intro cut out, but it's a different mix.  The lead vocals are slightly lower in the mix, creating a more even sound, like a regular rock 'n' roll record instead of a home demo, which is what the album version (as heard on the Capitol two-fer with 15 Big Ones) sounds like.  Mixing a lead vocal too loud is such an amateurish and tragic mistake;  it really eats up the "head room" and shrinks the music!  But I guess this would be Original Research if I added it to the article, so I'm mentioning it here.

thread_title:  Ah! 

message: @ILIL Hi, the US/Canada single mix (RPS 1389) also runs 2:31 with the same cut as the German single, I'm quite new to Wikipedia editing and wasn't sure how to clarify the extent of the single edit. I used the German single over others for no particular reason. As far as I can tell, the US, Canadian, German singles run at 2:31 and have the same instrumental bridge cut. I would be able to cite the US single but am unsure if it should be appended to the existing citation, or replace it completely.
Just as clarification, I am not indirectly citing Discogs with this, that former edit was a mistake on my part as I'm still trying to figure out citing poorly recorded information.
Though I assume not valid for citation, there exists also a vinyl rip of the single mix on YouTube. FutureFlowsLoveYou (talk) 13:26, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Good Article 

message: The Otis Redding page says this: 
Carla Thomas/In March 1967, Stax released King & Queen, an album of duets between Redding and Carla Thomas, which became a certified gold record. It was Jim Stewart's idea to produce a duet album, as he expected that "[Redding's] rawness and [Thomas's] sophistication would work".[46] The album was recorded in January 1967, while Thomas was earning her M.A. in English at Howard University. Six out of ten songs were cut during their joint session; the rest were overdubbed by Redding in the days following, because of his concert obligations. Three singles were lifted from the album: "Tramp" was released in April, followed by "Knock on Wood" and "Lovey Dovey". All three reached at least the top 60 on both the R&B and Pop charts.[46] The album charted at number 5 and 36 on the Billboard Pop and R&B charts, respectively.[29]
That a 1960's US Black woman singer also earned a MA in English seems notable in their biography. Is anybody able to confirm this? Brunswicknic (talk) 13:50, 26 September 2017 (UTC)

message: The Korean war section goes into detail on the war which may be unnecessary and only tangentially related to Johnson. The fact of the US military being under-equipped and under-trained due to budget cuts and atomic doctrine could be said in fewer words, I think.
:Actually, the initial setbacks in the Korean War and the excessive losses sustained by American forces in an attempt to fight much more heavily armed enemy forces is a direct consequence of Johnson's decision to slash armed forces budgetary requirements, particularly the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps.  There are literally hundreds of reports by servicemen who experienced the Johnson years of inadequate budgets resulting in critical shortages of serviceable weapons, equipment, ammunition, spare parts, and other vital supplies.Dellant (talk) 18:44, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

message: In copy-editing I have Wikified: compacted text,  removed any weasel words, loaded terms, and blogese. 
There were many unsubstantiated claims, some that were highly contentious that should not have been added without citations to evidence from reliable sources. There is still much to be referenced... I have added cite requests and a BLP template. 
I have restructured the sections for a better read, and text has been put in more or less chronological order, but in this, facts, such as they seem, may have been mis-aligned and dates skewed - this shows how confusing the article was. Could an editor with good knowledge of Alazraki’s life and career extend this article, especially his early life? - everything cited/referenced of course, and with no trivia or personal opinion.
If anything is reverted, do it with adequate linked evidence to corroborate assertions – blogs and promotional/commercial web sites are not acceptable as necessary third party original sources for inline citations.
