thread_title:  Animal behaviour 

message: Earlier this year, User:April.eye created an account and immediately started spamming WP with articles about, links to, and mentions of Scientists greater than einstein and Scienceheroes.com. All articles and files created by this SPA have since been deleted by a number of admins (see , , and ), so now I'm going through and deleting all the book references added by this editor.
The book's claims may or may not be legit; the article on the book (prior to its deletion) mentioned how the numbers were calculated in a vague fashion, but was clear that they definitely did not go through any type of peer review process. As such, and given the non-notability of the book itself as well as the nature of the edits, I figured it was better to just delete the reference. If you find a similar number from a different book (one that's more reliable), add away! Dori ❦ (Talk ❖ Contribs ❖ Review) ❦ 08:18, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Georg Schäfer (artist)

message: There's quite a lot of confusion about who painted the pictures in the Mescal book. His own people (his second wife 'Mani' and friends, including the author of the original entry here) are claiming he painted under the pseudonym Nan Cuz to emphasise the ethnic nature of the work, and maybe he did, but Nan Cuz IS a respected Guatemalan painter and there's an interview with her on German radio (where she sheds no light on the question). Her style is quite different, rather more tame and conventional -- the Mescal paintings look more like his work to my untutored eye -- but it may be that it changed later in life. Any aficionados? Sartoresartus (talk) 08:04, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Right, as I say: his later work on your website looks much more like the art in the Mescal book than Nan Cuz's own later work, but we can't make the decision here on Wikipedia. All we can say is that you 'claim' that it's the case, or maybe that you 'credibly claim' that it's the case (and that she claims otherwise). The documentation on your website also seems to bear out some of his other accounts, like the report on the wartime judgment that you reproduce -- but the picture is too small for me to read clearly, and at any rate Wiki doesn't allow us to put in what it calls 'original research'. I think we could treat your website as a reliable source, partly because there are no others, but at the moment we'll have to leave things ambiguous because of wiki rules. It's great that you've now set up the website and I hope you can put up as much documentation up as possible if you have the time. I think there IS interest, because the book is still popular, but the work has to be done elsewhere first, not in this encyclopedia. Sartoresartus (talk) 09:17, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

message: I'm having a little trouble believing that "Century" came from a 100-inch reflector the stand might have held.  Unless the "100-inch" is referring to surface area, that's a huge damned shiny board to put on a little c-stand, considering most modern reflectors are 48" or less to the side, and usually go on a much beefier stand.  I had thought that Century was the name of an early manufacturer (like "Strand Century"), but am not certain enough to change it.  Yes, I are a grip.  Rapscallion (talk) 02:31, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

:International Alert has been involved in mediation and conflict resolution in Sri Lanka, Philippines, Fiji, Sierra Leone, Burundi, Rwanda, the Caucuses region, and the Russian Federation. International Alert made a decisive intervention in the conflict in Sierra Leone, and co-facilitated the mediation process together with the Foreign Minister of the Côte D'Ivoire, the U.N. the O.A.U and the Commonwealth Secretariat. Their efforts eventually led to the Abidjan Accords. In Liberia at the request of President Carter early efforts were made to encourage dialogue between the now President Charles Taylor of Liberia and President Abacha of Nigeria. These initial dialogues eventually led to a settlement of the civil war in Liberia. In Burundi, at the request of the former Secretary General Bourtros Ghalli, International Alert was in effective collaboration with the UN Special Envoy, Ould Abdallah. This co-operation led to a major programme in Burundi and the development of an extensive network in Burundi called the Apostles of Peace. In Sri Lanka, International Alert undertook many complimentary efforts to contribute towards the resolution of the conflict there, with many problem-solving workshops including all the parties to the conflicts. Of special interest was a programme to take twenty MPs from all the political parties to learn from the experience from Northern Ireland, South Africa and the Philippines.
