Talk:Fran Rubel Kuzui

message: I have undone the revert of my edit adding mention of the reboot.  New editor  removed the addition with the edit summary "[t]he references provided do not mention Kuzui's involvement in the reboot" – this is incorrect.  According to the first reference: "Midnight, Texas creator Monica Owusu-Breen has been tapped as writer, executive producer and showrunner of the new Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with the original series’ creator and showrunner Whedon set to executive produce alongside original series’ exec producers Gail Berman, Fran Kazui and Kaz Kazui as well as Joe Earley from Berman’s Jackal Group" (bolding added).  According to the second reference: "Gail Berman, Joe Earley, Fran Kazui and Kaz Kazui will also executive produce."  Diehlwithit, I assume this was an error on your part, but FYI in future, a post here on the talk page asking me where / how the references supported my edit would be a better approach rather than just undoing (so long as the edit is not vandalism or a BLP violation, etc).

Talk:Francis Ford (actor)

message: This is saying that it was grocery store but pretended to be a saloon, or else that it was a grocery story store that pretended to be front for a saloon (which I guess would be for ironic-hipster or else retro-hipster reasons). It seems unlikely that a person would pretend to go to a saloon in order to sneak in some grocery shopping, or that hipsterism, either ironic or retro, was current in 1878. So I assumed it's just a malformation, and that the establishment was actually a saloon, and changed it, hoping this is correct. Herostratus (talk) 17:10, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

message: Wikipedia gives Frank E. Powell; LC authority file gives Frank L.

Talk:Frank Wead

message: Shouldn't there be some explanation as to the genesis of his unusual nickname "Spig"?  (I suppose it's pretty clear how he picked up "Sparrow", which is, I believe, NOT mentioned in "Wings of Eagles".)
And since the film makes such a big deal about the "jeep" carrier innovation--though it was never clear to me, despite several viewings of the flick over the decades, why this was such a strategic coup for the American Navy--shouldn't it be at least mentioned in passing?  I'd also like to see some discussion as to whether the jeep carriers were an ad hoc policy merely in place during the latter stages of  WWII, or whether it remains part of the Pentagon's strategy or tactics today.
I'm also curious, incidentally, as to Wead's height (which isn't evident in the photographs provided), to compare it to Wayne's 6'4" stature.  [signed] FLORIDA BRYAN  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.153.105.108 (talk) 05:24, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Good questions. "Jeep carriers" were used during the War but. as I read the record, Wead may not have been as involved in the concept as the the movie suggested; if you know of a reliable source to the contrary, jump in. Officially, they're called "Escort carriers." To my knowledge, the concept did not survive the War. I'll leave the peculiarities of Hollywood casting to someone who understand them.--Jim in Georgia Contribs Talk  13:53, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Albany, New Zealand

message: I added much new information, reorganized sections, didn't take out much. I'm somewhat skeptical about the population growth number -- one SNZ statistic suggests the growth number is different, but I didn't trust the SNZ number, but kept the current one. I think this article needs more pictures. Also, I'm not a New Zealander, but I'm wondering whether some of the development projects in the article are duplicated in the "commercial activity" zone -- I worked quickly and it's possible I confused one or more developments; suggest someone check this.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 15:59, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

But I did a bit more reading, and it appears that there is a frame drum that is typically spelled Ghaval or Qaval and mentioned in [this article on Azeri instruments](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azerbaijani_musical_instruments), so perhaps it should be re-included under a different spelling sans link.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 4and3and2and1 (talk • contribs) 17:39, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Lady Julia Percy Island

message: Location is given as "12 km SSW of Yambuk, and 22 km SW of Port Fairy". However, the map alongside doesn't show Yambuk, but it does show Portland: therefore either add Yambuk to the map (and remove Portland?), or replace the reference to Yambuk with Portland (i.e. "35 km ESE of Portland").
The scale on the map appears to be wrong: the scaled distance of LJPI from Port Fairy is close to 32 km, not 22 km as stated, and the scaled distance to Yambuk is 20 km, not 12 km as stated. Scaling off my Atlas of Australia (1:1000000) gives these distances as 20 km and 12 km respectively, which are in good agreement with the stated distances. If the 20 km bar on the map showed 15 km the scaled and stated distances would be in better agreement.
The direction of LJPI from Port Fairy is not SW as stated, but closer to SSW.

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Braxton Hicks (band)

message: Hi there,
I'm in the midst of editing the page, and yes, there is some confusion over the 2 Hicks'.  Our little band was first, back in the 90's - you can find more at www.allmusic.com - just type in "braxton hicks."  You can also see our last CD here: http://cdbaby.com/cd/braxtonhicks
We were formed back in '94 (formally) - the other BH is quite new.
So, hope that helps, and please don't delete us!  I'll finish it this week.
Thanks,
Rod
:Please have a look at the notability guidelines under WP:BAND.  Does your band meet these guidelines?  If so, you should make it your top priority in editing the article to add some text that explains how your band meets the guidelines.  Do that absolutely as soon as possible.

Talk:Gabriele Muccino

message: Overall I think this article looks really good!  I think one change it might benefit from is to split the "Life and Career" section into two separate sections.  As it is, it is a very long section that focuses mostly on career anyways, so I think making a separate "Life" section with more detail about Gabriele outside of his work in film could be helpful to make a more well-rounded article.  Maybe include any details about places he has lived, gone to school, and his family in the new section.
On a separate note, I also noticed that 5 of the 6 listed references are the same, it mght be a good idea to re-use the same citation for each time you have an in-text citation rather than creating a new one each time if it is the same reference being used.  This will just help to clean up the look of the reference section.
Again like I said, I think overall it is really good.  The writing is easy to follow and pleasant to read, job well done. Get1432 (talk) 04:52, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Blech

message: Hi all,  I got to this page from hot plate, never hearing of a blech before.  While reading through this page I started wondering if "Sabbath mode" that I've seen on some modern stoves was created to be a modern equivalent to a Blech.  Sabbath mode does link back to Blech as a see also so maybe someone with more knowledge of the subject might write up a couple of sentences about Sabbath mode and link back to that page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfhound668 (talk • contribs) 13:19, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

Even the same picture is used on both pages.

This genus was originally established by Lorenz Oken in 1817 for the species within this genus at that time known as Hemidactylus tuberculosus. That name Hemidactylus tuberculosus is nowadays considered to refer to the Tropical House Gecko which is properly known now as Hemidactylus mabouia.[1]
