message: I didn't merge the specific countries we get oil from, because I couldn't figure out what source verified it, and it would be excessive detail in that other article anyway.  I also didn't merge the quote about Saudi Arabia, as it's not very definitive and it's really about US-Saudi Arabia diplomatic relations, not about energy policy.  Someone may want to move that quotation (or a summary of it) to some other article.  Qwyrxian (talk) 00:32, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Cliff Dapper

message: There is a reason that some persons played in the Major Leagues only during the Second World War.  The really good players were drafted or enlisted, and fought in the war, while the 4-F players stayed home to play baseball.  When the good players returned after the war, the 4-F players were not needed.  This aspect of playing careers should be explored, if the article is ever expanded into a full-length biography.  130.13.1.200 (talk) 03:08, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Removal of "needs infobox" tag 

message: Al Stump, who provided the source material for this film, has been shown in recent years to have been a forger and petty criminal living off phony Cobb items including a diary. He even sold a gun he claimed had been used to kill Cobb's father. It would seem to be relivant to mention controversy about the film and its source for the account of the life of Cobb. 70.234.227.209 (talk) 21:49, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Most of the "documentation" your talking about goes back to Al Stump. The worst stories, like those in the film which have Cobb shooting up nightclubs and raping women, don't have any other source but Stump. Without Stump, we have the Alexander book and a few other sources. But they don't tell a consistant story. He was supposed to be a pathologically violent racist and yet later in life he spoke and wrote in favor of integration in baseball. The only thing true I think is that the film is a cartoon version of Cobb's life. But anyway, telling the truth about Stump doesn't make Cobb the person any better or worse. 75.20.229.120 (talk) 23:52, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

“During the 2008 All-Star game, Hart approached the plate to the song "Sunglasses At Night" by the artist of the same name 20 years his senior, Corey Hart."
While I know him pretty well as a Brewers player and can personally vouch for the second and third claim, I couldn't find reliable sources for any of them, and are therefore putting them in here until somebody can do just that.

Talk:Cuban X-Giants

message: User 74.73.239.125 added the following edit: "Edward B. Lamar, Jr. was the manager of a team which included 2B Sol White and pitcher George Stovey. (James A. Riley's Biographical Encyclopedia of the Negro Leagues states that former Giants manager Cos Govern returned as manager, but this does not appear to be correct.)"  Because the editor did not cite a source for this information, while the information saying the Govern returned as manager does come from a source (Riley, p. 329), I've reverted the edit. I'm certainly aware of the possibility that Riley may be incorrect, but we need to see a citation to the source of the information in order to correct a sourced statement.

Talk:Rocky Nelson

message: With Mickey Mantle on first and Gil McDougald on third, one out, Pirates winning 9-8 in the top of the ninth of game 7, Yogi Berra hit a hot smash to Nelson. All Nelson had to do for the Pirates to win the World Series was throw to second and take the return throw to get the slow-running Berra. Instead, he stepped on first to get Berra (taking the force off Mantle), but for some bizarre reason I'd like to see explained in this article, Mantle never broke for second and instead dived immediately back into first base. The Yankees soon tied it 9-9, but of course Mazeroski led off the bottom of the ninth. If Nelson ever explained why he didn't make the easy double-play and why Mantle never broke for second, it would add a lot of interest to this article.RustyGriswold (talk) 16:39, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Conservation (genetics)

message: what should we do with conservation should we keep it or get rid of it?
Comment: I think that conservation is absolutely an important concept and should be kept. I use Wikipedia as a source for nursing science, which increasingly addresses genetic topics, and I'm happy to see more and more issues of cell biology appearing here. I know that the degree of conservation in a sequence is an important indicator of the significance it's had--I imagine that as more information about specific proteins comes onto wikipedia, an article on genetic conservation would be a useful "hub." The articles on conservation (genetics) and conserved sequences probably ought to be merged, because the materials on these pages seem to compliment each other. My favorite title for it would be "genetic conservation."--Paul bryner 07:20, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Intermetallic

message: The opening paragraph of this article says: "Intermetallics are alloys of two or more metals in a certain proportion, thereby forming a new chemical compound (emphasis mine)."
The last sentence of that paragraph cites cementite, or Fe3C, as a commonly used example of an intermetallic.  I suggest a different example, or at least an explanation, as this seems to conflict with the opening statement (since carbon is not a metal).
Cheeg 19:11, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If Fe3C (cementite) is a solid solution, why does it form a phase boundary with elemental Fe?  I would posit that it is, in fact, a distinct crystal structure, in line with XRD & thermodynamic evidence.  FYI, Au can dissolve in Cu to some extent, in the same way that there's limited solubility of C in Fe.  The fact that C isn't a metal is a point well taken, though, and probably reason enough to change the article.  Be bold!  --Joel 00:03, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
