Coincidentally, the creator of the online section, 68.114.58.35, added ChessManiac.com ref to a chess article, similarly promotional, four days later.

Talk:Metapontum

message: In the history section the article claims that Metapontum took the side of Hannibal 'till the end of the war. The source "The Rise of the Roman Empire" Polybius, Ian Scott-Kilvert, Frank William Walbank, claims that Metapontum offerred key assistance to Rome:
After these preparations for the siege had been completed, the Romans received reinforcements by sea from Metapontum. This measure of relief did something to restore their spirits; the made a night attack on the siege-works, and succeeded in destroying all of Hannibal's machines and apparatus

Talk:American Birding Association

message: I think that superlatives like "birding's highest award" and "most prestigious" are better applied to the Ludlow Griscom Award during the period 1980-1999 when it was the only regularly-granted award by the ABA.  According to Davis (1994), Dean of the Birdwatchers: A Biography of Ludlow Griscom, when the award was initiated it recognized "outstanding contributions to excellence in field birding."  (p. 198)  With the introduction of the Robbins award for Education/Conservation, the Ridgway award for publications, the Peterson award for "promoting the cause of birding," and the Wilds award for distinguished service to ABA, there is a widening of the scope of accomplishments that ABA wants to recognize as good birding; at the same time, the Griscom award is rededicated more narrowly as recognition for excellence in regional ornithology.  Certainly the ABA's web site does not give priority to the Griscom award, although it is the only one with "outstanding" in its full title.
No doubt the news media will continue to echo the superlatives for the Griscom award.  Here is a more recent example:

thread_title: Dates

message: Hi. There is a serious discrepancy in dates based on the assigned dates for the life and reign of Ashoka the Great, and the introduction of Buddhism into the island. Currently, Tissa is credited with the introduction of Buddhism from Ashoka, when, in fact, Tissa died a year after Ashoka took power. The discrepancies in the dating of Devanampiya Tissa's reign are well noted above by User:G41rn8. Either the earlier possible dates that have been assigned for Tissa's rule are incorrect, or Tissa is incorrectly associated with the adoption of Buddhism through the influence of Ashoka, as it would have been prior to Ashoka's contacts with the island of Sri Lanka...

Talk:American Wigeon

message: WP:TX says "Use this [image2] sparingly, and only when the article is long enough and it makes sense to include the second image here and not later in the article. Camel is a good example (a genus with two well-known representatives)." Consequently, I replaced the two images in the taxobox with a single image that shows both male and female, even though this image is a bit lower in resolution than :Image:American Wigeon.jpg and much lower than :Image:Anas-americana-004.jpg, a featured image. Since the new image, :Image:Anas americana 03828.JPG, is mine, I'd like to know if the other editors agree. Walter Siegmund (talk) 21:03, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sexually dimorphic species like this need two images.  But since one image now has both, then there is only a need for one image, not two.  Any further images need to be justified by arguments founded on undeniable biology, for example molt (consider the Long-tailed Duck), age (many larids exhibit wildly different appearances as they age), social/mating/foraging behaviors, and so on.  And it goes without saying that such images need to be directly commented on by in-article text derived from the published literature.  So I have removed all the gratuitous imagery here, as they contribute zero further information.  I strongly encourage other editors to be equally ruthless in related articles.  mdf 13:37, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Damaru

message: In February 2016, user Tusharkulkarni95 deleted a whole section (nearly -1900) on skull damaru and added a poorly written section about damaru's needing no metronome and mentioning that skulls crack during Hindu cremation and therefore cannot be used in the construction of damaru. Admittedly, the section on skull damaru had no citation and needs some work, but I contend that  it deserves to remain in the article. Whether or not Hindu skulls crack during cremation is irrelevant to the fact that skulls are DEFINITELY used in the construction of damarus in the Vajrayana (Tibetan Buddhist) tradition, and possibly in others. This information is easily verifiable by simply googling "skull damaru." 
For this reason, I reinstated the entire section on Skull Damarus under the heading of Tibetan Buddhism. I also deleted the poorly-written section about damarus not needing metronomes and references to Hindu cremation practices. Granted, this is my first WP edit so am not very good at this WP editing gig. My edits may need to be cleaned up, but I felt strongly enough about reversing Tusharkulkarni95 edits that I made an account and typed out this argument in the spirit of consensus.
Any further attempts to delete sections regarding skull damarus, or to argue over their pertinence to this article should be discussed here.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Technovajra (talk • contribs) 05:31, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
