Talk:!!! (album)

message: For me there is a misunderstanding with the release date (currently stated as 2001-06-19).
The album, or at least its physical release, was out as early as november 2000.
It's stated on the label websitehttp://web.archive.org/web/20020410202409fw_/http://goldstandardlabs.com/gsl_releases.html (archived)
and discogshttps://www.discogs.com/release/233832, and still partly on the band's wikipediahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/!!! "The band's full-length debut record came out in 2000 as a self-titled album on the label Gold Standard Laboratories."

Talk:Quintroon

message: what's the term for a person who is 15/16 black and 1/16 white?
Gringo300 21:13, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: "Black"  These terms existed, to the best of my knowledge, only in regards to such fractions as 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 black Nik42 06:37, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: This depends partly on the country.  In the U.S., Nik42's answer is right: anything other than 1/x black was considered just "black" with no further annotations.  In Central and South America and parts of the Carribbean, however, mulattos formed a separate social/ethnic group, and included people in a various range of mixed-race ancestry.  The same is true of the Coloureds in South Africa.  --Delirium 07:48, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Decimus Junius Brutus Callaicus

message: I'm confussed at how this Brutus could be in the times that are suggested here... This is linked from the Brutus that assasinated Caesar... if this is the case than this information must be wrong...?
:Yes, the Decimus Junius Brutus who detained Mark Antony outside the Senate during Caesar's assassination was Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus; links leading here (and a quick glance indicates there are many of them) are incorrect.  This article should probably be moved to Decimus Junius Brutus Callaicus, and Decimus Junius Brutus can be turned into a disambiguation page for Albinus and Callaicus.  I can take care of that now.  Correcting the incorrect links, however, is a more in depth project.

replies: text: The now current image (grey cats) is nice, but I don't think it adds anything meaningful to the article. Decoration isn't really a good reason for including an image, so I've removed it. Images are for illustration of the article text, and since it's a sound, there's not really any good way to illustrate it visually (except with a waveform or histograph). -kotra (talk) 00:22, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Decoration is actually a great reason for including an image. It's just a bad reason for including a non-free image. Besides, its a disambiguation page, and illustrates what a cat is. It's harmless. I'm going to restore it. --Knulclunk (talk) 00:56, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Mills (surname)

message: Regarding merging from Lake Mills -- this does not seem like a very sensible idea. I can see perhaps merging persons named something Mills (e.g., Bob Mills) because persons are often referenced by last name, but Lake Mills is a place name that is rather unlikely to be referred to as simply Mills. older≠wiser 22:24, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Merging Robert Mills (disambiguation) to here doesn't make sense. However, the entries on that page should be placed here instead of the link to the disambiguation page. There is no reason why both pages cannot have them and it avoids the link to the disambiguation page.
