message: I propose that Wireless modem be merged into Mobile broadband modem. I think that the content in the Wireless modem article can easily be explained in the context of Mobile broadband modem, and the MBM article is of a reasonable size in which the merging of Wireless modem will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.  Also, the term "mobile broadband" already has its own page to clearly define the subject.  Such a term is much more descriptive than "wireless modem", which can simply signify a dial-up/DSL/cable/FTTH modem with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi capabilities built in. --True Tech Talk Time (talk) 02:37, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Okanagan Lake Bridge

message: Now that the last part of this bridge is being demolished, and the new bridge has been filling this one's shoes for a while, I think that for the convenience of searchers, "Okanagan Lake Bridge" should redirect to the article on the new bridge. There can be a redirect note and link there for people who actually wanted the article on the older bridge. As part of that change, this article would need to be moved; I suggest "Old Okanagan Lake Bridge". Note that the rename is just for bookkeeping; the bolded text in the body of the article with the actual names of the bridge could stay the same.

Talk:Beauchief and Greenhill

message: I believe that Hutcliff (without the trailing 'e') is the correct spelling of the wood. This is based primarily on map evidence - both the AZ and the OS maps spell the name of the wood 'Hutcliff Wood', and the name of the road 'Hutcliffe Wood Road'. This inconsistency could reflect a mis-spelling, but the OS map is the most authoritative source we've yet found so I think we should go along with it. See discussion a few days ago at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Sheffield. I tried to link to the OS get-a-map image, but the image is only cached for a short time it seems. You'll need to search for grid reference SK337832 to retrieve it again. --VinceBowdren 11:17, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. After research, wherever there is an error in print, AtoZ does spell Hutcliff Wood without E. So regardless of Hutcliffe Wood Road, Crematorium, Cemetery, Rememberance Monument, it must be spelt without the ending E. A trip on location is needed to assertain the truth, green Council park signs should be around the place with say a more official stance on the subject.

Talk:Burngreave (ward)

message: I have removed the following text from the article:
:Pitsmoor has struggled over recent years with the perception that it is an undesirable place to live, mainly due to a couple of high-profile shootings roughly 4 years ago, and a moderate amount of drug-dealing. Residents of the area feel that the area is misrepresented, and point to the strong community spirit that still exists in Pitsmoor and Burngreave compared to other areas of Sheffield, and falling crime. South Yorkshire Police have stated that Burngreave as a whole now has a lower crime rate than the Sheffield average. The area is known for a number of ethnic food shops, and two of the most popular curry houses in Sheffield; Mangla and the Kashmir Curry Centre.
The reason that I have removed it is because it includes a number of uncited (see Wikipedia:Verifiability) and POV claims (e.g. "Residents of the area feel...", "strong community spirit... compared to other areas of Sheffield", "The area is known..."). Although some of the points covered may be worth mentioning in the article it needs to be written in the neutral point of view without weasel words and with citation of reliable sources. —JeremyA 02:12, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:StarCraft pirate militias

message: I happened to stumble on this article by clicking on "Random Article".
I'm not a gamer and know as good as nothing about video/PC games.
There is nothing in the title or first paragraph to show that this is about a game, the term "parallel universe" was a hint for me that this is fiction, but I had to scroll down to the very bottom of the article to find out that this is about a game.
I'm wondering if for other users the idea of a "parallel universe" isn't rather absurd if you haven't heard the term in context with fantasy.
What I'm saying is that I think the article assumes too much prior knowledge in the reader. I don't think it should be expected that people know that StarCraft is a game or what "parallel universe" means in this context. A clarification in the first paragraph would be helpful, IMO.

Talk:Higüey

message: Is the tourism just on the nearby beaches, or do Dominicans visit Higüey for its historic sites? I tightened up the history section, although the Caribbean is not my expertise, and I really did not understand the last bit at all (it seemed merely a retelling of the different names for the province). I wonder if Higüey had similar stories to one of the last areas of Cuba to be conquered, where a princess supposedly threw herself off a cliff. That said, I would have added a link to the Jaragua Massacre, but it seems in a different region. Does Higüey have non-church buildings from the colonial era? Is this an area of religious devotion because of miracles associated with the image, or did the friars and priests try to protect the remaining native people? Also, FYI, in Spain in the late medieval or early modern era, granting a city a charter and seal meant it achieved a degree of self-governance, from a mayor to militia or police and tax collectors, none of which are mentioned. For all I know, Higüey could be most notable for its peacefulness. The intro says both the cathedral and church of St Denis remain, but I wonder exactly when they were built or rebuilt after the earthquakes that the island's known for. I understand the area might have been used for sugar cane or banana plantations, and that period of actual or near slavery might still be controversial, but I'm sure something happened either in the city or province since Touissant L'Overture. I think readers (some of whom are or might become tourists) would appreciate learning about the city and area.
