Talk:Dramarama (band)

message: No discussion on the lack of NPOV here, but the page as initially posted was obviously by a fanboy.  (And hey, I am, or was, a fanboy too!)
I've tried to clean it up and wikify it, but have really only started the process.  The text needs to be broken out into categories some more, with a clear introduction (at least!) added to the beginning.
Anyone want to join in?  :)

Talk:Scandium oxide

message: I wanted to know more about the structure, and looked at Ref 1 in my library. Ref 1 is a 1000 page book, and Scandium isn't in the index.

Talk:John Hampden

message: This and similar content has now been debated on various occasions, so my apologies for using bold letters but I'm out of ideas on how to get you to listen. 
(a) Wikipedia clearly states "No original research'. That point has been made over and over and over again. This alleged controversy does not appear in (a) his ODNB entry; (b) his History of Parliament entry; or (c) any of the other Sources I've looked at. 
(b) I did you the courtesy of reading what you wrote; it says Edward Clough doesn't exist and Nugent made him up. Great. Since the article does not contain a single one of the claims made by Nugent you describe as inaccurate, what is its relevance here? ie in an article on John Hampden? And I've referenced Nugent's biography elsewhere in the article ("inaccurate" and "hagiographic" pretty much covers it). 
(c) It is relevant to Nugent's article, where I think you've included it (I'm not entirely sure because its hard to tell) I've made no attempt to remove or "censor" it. 
(d) You've accused me of censorship and asked 'the administrators' to 'reinstate your content' on numerous occasions; they haven't. What does that tell you?
I strongly suggest you now take this to arbitration; if they agree 'this content is relevant to this article, then posterity will thank you. if they don't, then maybe you should reconsider your approach. Robinvp11 (talk) 19:41, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

message: Hampden is described as being a "less complex figure than Cromwell or Pym" due to his early death, and yet Pym's death was the same year as Hampden's. 82.20.109.75 (talk) 13:21, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The point here is not the date of death but that Pym has tended to be seen as a clever, if slightly unscrupulous, politician, while Cromwell was tainted by the execution of Charles I, his record in Ireland etc. Because Hampden died in battle in 1643, he escaped involvement in the political infighting and compromises that took place later in the war, hence it is much easier to view him as a simple patriot. I'll look at the wording and see if I can make it clearer. Robinvp11 (talk) 17:45, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Comparison of user interface markup languages

message: In what sense is the "Development Environment" column meant to be used here?  I ask because XAML can be produced with a text editor (just as almost every other language).  Visual Studio obviously provides some accelerators and hooks for the dev process, but it certainly isn't necessary.  XAML is compiled down into binary XAML (BAML) by either the VS compiler or MSBuild; in that sense, it needs MS products but only for compilation.  XAML can also be generated by the new forms part of VS or by Sparkle.--Calebbell 20:27, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Canopus, Egypt

message: I may as well start this talk page.
The only things I really know about Canopus are the following:
1.    It is the name for the first part of the 3-stone Series, in the Rosetta Stone Series.   One really has to know, or study all three to get a clue to the Rosetta Stone  Import.   Most people do not 'know' that Ptolemy V, his   4th, and 5th Greek names  were Epiphany, Eucharistos,  both words now used in the Catholic church. (Epiphanous was put on Greek coins of the time).  And the Rosetta stone uses the word "Cathedra", and the Canopus Stone uses the word  "Synagogue...".(See the "Decree of Canopus" web link, 50 % down at "rise of the Nile" (and "gather the fruit"(Not Mentioned)); gather is the word "syngoge", sungoge, =(Hebrew, i.e. Greek synogogue); in hieroglyphs the "fruit" glyph is next to it.)Mmcannis 19:26, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Webland

message: Someone hyping their own site claimed:
:Webland was a term used frequently during the dot com boom of the late 90's to describe what was essentially a fantasy world where teenagers were becoming millionaires by the dozen and intelligent business people were taking advice from new graduates.
OK, a) I don't remember it being frequently used, but if that's the claim OK I forwarded it to the WWW article. If it was a frequently used term, the next bit doesn;t make any sense at all:
:Webland is copyrighted and trademarked by Marshall Capital corporation for use by their incubator Webland Inc.
OK, first up, words cannot be copyrighted, so that claim is obviously nuts. Secondly, if it was popularly used as a generic term, it can;t be trademarked within the field it was being used generically in. (Marshall Capital Corporation was another spam article created by the same user).
I decided to redirect on the theory that the person was right that it was used frequently to refer to the dot com bubble. If he's wrong then it technically should be deleted. Just thought a long vote on this nonsense would waste everyone's time wading through red tape.

Talk:Rotuma

message: There's a relatively recent addition to the page that Tahitians were the first inhabitants on the island. I'm confused what the sub-section headed 'Linguistic evidence' is providing evidence for. If the evidence is for the Tahitian arrival argument, then the sub-section does not appear to provide linguistic evidence in support of this theory. There is, however, scant mention of Polynesian loanwords being the result of later invasions, but there's work on that (see Schmidt 2001). Other work also talk about there being an aboriginal substratum of the language (see Churchward 1940, Schmidt 2001), but there hasn't been any linguistic research that points to Tahitian being that substratum. 
On organization, the way that the 'History' section is organized is strange. As of now, 'Linguistic evidence' precedes 'Origins per linguistic evidence and history'. It would make sense to introduce the competing oral histories on (the first) settlement and then in a later sub-section provide the evidence, or write them simultaneously -- but not introduce the evidence first and then the theories in separate sub-sections. 
I'd also caution against treating only a few similar words (Tagroa, Tagaroa, Siria) between Tahitian and Rotuman as linguistic evidence, especially if they have not been subjected to rigorous linguistic analysis. GrinIcrave (talk) 03:16, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
