message: is he the inspiration for carlos santana in Captain Tsubasa
:I seriously doubt it. :) Raystorm 19:31, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably not, but he did inspire a Brazilian soap opera character in Brazil, back in 1995. It was called Irmãos Coragem -- something like the Bravery Brothers -- and one of the main characters was this blond guy who moved to Rio from the countryside to play football for Flamengo. 38.100.40.100 (talk) 13:09, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Zabaleen

message: Original author of the zabbaleen page here. I am about to merge the pages, keeping the bb spelling and putting a redirect from zabaleen. --Tariq Abdulla (talk) 01:28, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Zebaleen appears to be a more common transliteration in English. Both articles contain useful information, so I think care should be taken during any merge. — Zerida 00:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

text: In searching the two spellings, Zabbaleen appears more in news sotries, such as CNN and BBC, while Zabaleen is used on more coloquial pages, such as blogs and .org sites. I would therefore go with  "bb", "Zabbaleen". I agree that a careful merging is important as they both contain good, information. Jrc272 09:34, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would assess that the two spellings are used with about the same frequency online (there are similar numbers of Google results for each, etc), however I concur that the "bb" spelling is probably the better one. Unless an expert on the subject can say otherwise, I say merge the articles. ropable 02:01, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: 'Zabbaleen' corresponds more accurately to how the word is pronounced because of a feature in the language called gemination. I am not an expert on the topic itself however, so I would go with whatever is used more often in literature. — Zerida 06:11, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Seals, Georgia

message: I created this page in response to a comment from User:NE2 when I removed a red link to Seals, Georgia on the Seal page; NE2 wrote Why was this removed? It's a valid place name.
After finding a web reference indicating that it is a valid place name, I started this article, partly to turn the red link to blue (on the Seal page), and partly to give the opportunity for NE2 and others to amplify and ameliorate the article with information about Seals. (I know nothing about the place, and am finding it difficult to find any information about it on the web.) Hebrides 10:31, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Kamiakin

message: Hi.  Thanks for doing that.  Just to note the standard for Native American chief names is simply their name, e.g. Sealth (Seattle); or if there's a disambig issue Nicola (chief) (which hasn't been written yet.  So if you could, maybe change the title of the page you created to Kamiakin (chief) and I suppose Kamiakin should be a disambig; I think there's lake names or other geo features that might be ref'd is why; or Kamiakin would be the chief's page, with a thing at the top saying "for other uses, please see Kamiakin (disambiguation), or ??

Talk:Gwynfor Evans

message: I have removed the reference to Adam Price winning Carmarthen East and Dinefwr at the 2001 election.  I don't feel especially strongly about this reference one way or the other, though I would suggest that it is not directly relevant to a biography of Gwynfor Evans and would be better placed in the Carmarthen East and Dinefwr article.  Price's victory has little to do with Gwynfor Evan's later electoral record. Normalmouth 08:56, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  later electoral record 

message: I have removed the references to being born into an English speaking family and learning Welsh as an adult. His family attended a Welsh medium chapel all through his childhood, he won competitions in Welsh as a child, his sister has stated that they could all speak Welsh and did. This is hardly an 'English speaking family'! I don't know how this idea that 'he learnt welsh as an adult' started although it has been suggested that he used this claim to try to show that English speakings in Wales could learn Welsh but all of the evidence of his family, his chapel, winning competitions etc show that he did speak Welsh. It has also been claimed that his Welsh wasn't as fluent as it could be, this is likely in the sense that Welsh was a language of the Chapel and the home and he set about improving his Welsh as an adult, but he already spoke enough to be classed as a native Welsh speaker.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.104.164.93 (talk) 01:07, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  History section 

message: One example is the vowel system. Proto-Japanese had 8 vowels; this has been reduced to 5 in modern Japanese,
The 8 vowel hypothesis applies to Old Japanese. I must emphasis that it but one hypothesis. Another popular hypothesis was that the A/B distinction palalatized the consonant. There is little academic agreement on the issue. Wikipedia should not state the issue as if it is a fact.
There is more agreement that Proto-Japanese had fewer vowels than Old Japanese -- more likely 4 vowels. Refer to works by Susumu Ōno.
There is no need to evoke modern Japanese to discuss a 5 vowel system. Classical Japanese, immediately following Old Japanese, had 5 vowels.

This quote seems to misunderstand its source. First of all should this be under "Syntax" section? Second of all the section references cardinal direction, but the source mentions that this is not the system used for this particular frame of reference. A town that's south of the mountain, or the Ishigaki urban center, refers to the southern direction as "sagaru/oriru" while in Shiraho, which is south-east of the summit, refers to the south-eastern direction as "sagaru/oriru". This is clearly referencing altitude in standard Japanese, and not cardinal direction or "syntax". --Kaledomo (talk) 19:46, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

Talk:TFI Friday

message: It's possibly worth adding a section on "the mugs", which are probably quite rare/collectable now.  The producers were often asked for replicas of "the TFI Friday mug" that Evans drank from every Friday evening, but they had none.    After enough badgering someone in Ginger productions had the idea of creating a limited run on 1000 mugs, selling them for £35 each and for a limited time (through the breakfast radio show that Evans was also hosting at the time).  When the deadline was reached the remaining mugs (iirc 300 or so) were destroyed by tipping them off a high building, live, on the programme.  One mug survived the fall, and IIRC, something special was done with it.  --82.30.154.143 11:53, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't want everyone's hard work to be lost.  The template in itself is something we're still discussing, I want it to be made smaller, yes, but you must understand One Piece is a HUGE series with a lot of information to be double checked, assessed and debated on correctness.  Currently this has given me a guilt trip since I set up the Games page just because no one else took the time to set it up and before it can be improved you it got preposed for deletion.  A lot of peoples hard work could be lost.  A lot of your changes that have been purposed, note: the mergers, simply DIDN'T work when they were as one article in the first place.  There have been some arguments such as the One Piece abilities page over the value, but others, they are need to explain other important things in the storyline.

message: The article suggests that Servalan took on the alias of Sleer after a failed attempt to steal the Liberator.  In fact the attempt was successful.  The Liberator was destroyed immediately afterwards, but Servalan had successfully stolen the craft by this point.
