Talk:Harry Midgley

message: Someone claiming to be Midgley's grandson posted to the wikien-l today, saying that Midgley was anti-Franco, and citing The Politics of Frustration: Harry Midgley and the failure of Labour in Northern Ireland, Graham Walker, Manchester University Press.  It seems extremely unlikely to me that a politician from the labour movement (especially a Northern Irish unionist, who I assume was a protestant) would have supported Franco.  Nationalist parties in Catholic countries tended to support Franco, which would make it more likely that the Nationalist Party stood against him because of his opposition to Franco.  Since I don't have the book to check, I've just removed all mention of Franco.  --ajn (talk) 08:05, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Reference desk/FAQ

message: This was asked for several times, lastly at Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Miscellaneous#FAQ (19 september 2006), so I have made a start, Googling 'asked before' on the ref desk archive, resulting in 26 hits . I have gone through them all, and included most. Others could try variations of this, like 'asked here before', 'some time ago', 'previous thread' or whatever (think how yo might phrase that). I didn't analyse them yet, though, just gave the raw links, to make a start. And most importantly, I didn't search for other answers to the questions if a link was not given. Its a start, though. Funny thing is, I am frequently the one who points out that a question has been asked before. No wonder I started this faq page. :) DirkvdM 08:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Year 

message: The plot in the John Wyndham book makes clear that triffids were an experimental species raised on earth; an early prediction of genetic engineering. Though their sting was deadly, they were not carnivorous.
A meteor shower blinded everyone on earth - or at least, everyone in this Britain-set novel - save the hero, who was in hospital undergoing eye-surgery; he therefore did not see the meteors.
The triffids escaped from the research station, bred quickly, and were uncontrollable by and deadly to the sightless human population.
If this plot was modified for the movie version, perhaps it should be noted in this article. 'The Day of the Triffids' novel was  not a 'monsters from outer space' story. It had a graver lesson to teach. Bluedawe 21:13, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Failed GA Criteria 

message: I have read the article and have found problems with it, they are listed below:
* Needs more references
* The wording throughout the article is bad for an example the introduction states “The Chrysler Sunbeam was a small supermini 3-door hatchback…” we already known that it is a small car, that is why it is called a super mini.
* Try to become more accurate with the years and times throughout the article, instead of just saying “in the mid 1970’s……”.
* The article desperately needs more info about the dimensions of the car.
* Fix the grammar and wording.
Try looking at the Ford BA Falcon article, it is not a good article yet but it will be soon. The article is better than yours and can be used as an idea of what needs to be fixed in your article. Once the problems have been addressed then you can re nominate your article.SenatorsTalk | Contribs 00:02, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:NicVAX

message: As of , the article during this review, I failed this article for Good Article status. The major reason is that the article is still a stub article; thus it is not yet ready for GA. The scope of the subject is not broad enough. For instances, how is the clinical development of the drug? How the drug works? Please also expand more about its side effects. The article only shows the studies of the drug during some experimental trials, what is the current status? Is it already approved to be used clinically? How effective is the drug? .... and many many more. So, when the article is ready, you can renominate it again. As always, if you feel disagree about this review, you may ask for another re-review. — Indon (reply) — 16:01, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Proposed 1893 Constitution of the Hawaiian Kingdom

message: I propose to remove the word "reportedly" from the following sentence in the Background section:
:::The Queen received petitions, reportedly in the thousands, to issue a new constitution as Kamehameha V had done in 1864 (the Constitution of 1864).
It is followed by an inline citation that reads: 
:::Liliuokalani (2016) [1898]. Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen. Arcadia Ebooks. Chapter 38, "Hawaiians Plead for a New Constitution". It was estimated by those in position to know, that ... six thousand five hundred ... had signed these petitions.

Talk:Birmingham Civic Society

message: The style of Wikipedia suggests that the definite article The should rarely appear at the start of an article name (Wikipedia:Naming conventions (definite and indefinite articles at beginning of name)). While the formal name of the society is The Birmingham Civic Society this is not the form used on the society's web site, nor on its blue plaques. In ordinary usage the The is dropped. In running text the capitalisation of The looks clumsy. Should the article be renamed to drop the initial definite article? Oosoom Talk to me 09:24, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Derry Senior Football Championship

message: In 1982 Ballinderry and Dungiven met in the fianl of te Derry Championship.
Ballinderry won the game,after a replay and extra time, but there a field fight at the game and consequently the Derry County Board sripped Ballinderry of 1982's champioonship (shortly afterwards).
However earlier this year (late June) the County Board held a vote and awarded Ballinderry the 1982 Senior Championship, therfore they have 8 county Championships.

thread_title: Slogan

message: I believe the Power FM Wikipedia page should be a disambiguation page, as for many Australians, Power FM refers to their local hit music station and not England's or Canary Islands.  Therefore an English radio station can not hold priority over the name.
How do we go about moving the Power FM article to something like Power FM England or something like that?

thread_title: Opinion

message: The first sentence of the article asserts that Tolstoy’s work was "…on the subject of melancholia…." This statement may result in a reader having the notion that the book is about a mere passing subjective mood. As a result, it would be dismissive and would trivialize Tolstoy’s words. On the contrary, Tolstoy’s writing may be a rare, profound, objective insight into the essence of life. Wittgenstein, for one, thought it to be so.

Talk:Kayako Saeki

message: Does anyone have a source that Kayako is an Onryō? My understanding from the film (and the opening text) was that Kayako isn't any kind of ghost or spirit, but rather a manifestation of the rage left behind when the Saeki family was killed that acts as a curse. The appearance of Kayako, her son, and (at one point) even her husband are all part of the Ju-on curse.
The Onryō claim seems like an assumption and western misunderstanding of the film. But granted, I have only seen Ju-on: The Curse 1-2 and Ju-on: The Grudge 1-2, so maybe there's a retcon I'm not aware of. Darkknight2149 22:12, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
