Talk:Genoa Economic and Financial Conference (1922)

message: "A unanimous decision was also reached concerning the monetary legality of Nazi gold, devised by Mussolini in 1921." How is this possible, when the Nazis didn't even rise to power until the 1930s?
Furthermore, how could Mussolini have "devised" its legality, if he himself did not rise to power until 30 October 1922, thus after the end of the Genoa Conference? Please amend this factual error accordingly (I do not feel competent enough to do that).

replies: text: If the SAS were extended, no it couldn't stay as a museum. The lower level at Ninth Avenue could be used. That would provide two tracks and two platforms, so it probably would be comparable to the amount of space the museum has now. The northbound local track could be walled off so yard operations at 36th-38th Street Yard are unaffected. The ends of the platforms and the tunnels could be sealed with doors like is done at Court Street. It would take quite a bit of renovation, but it could be done.

It seems to me to be correct to use "the Palestinian people" in the article as used in his quote.  I had wondered if he had simply misspoke meaning to say "Hamas", but if you replace "the Palestinian people" with "Hamas" in what he said, the first bit no longer really makes sense; and AFAICS he has never made a statement saying he misspoke and corrected himself.

In fact, "RBSD" appears to be something of a running gag at bullshido.net, with threads composing haikus to mock it and the like.

Talk:Joanna Pacitti

message: There are biased snippets that read like they're from a press package in the body of this article: 
However, most of the nation was on Pacitti's side and supported her immensely, although there is no evidence that a national poll or survey of any kind was undertaken to confirm this massive "support" for the performer. Television shows and newspaper articles were full of praises for Pacitti, except for at least one, Variety. -- This entire paragraph should be excised; contains not one shred of verified information.
Although her heart was broken and done publicly, she did her best to keep her chin up. Just like the little red headed girl she portrayed, Pacitti believed the sun would come out tomorrow. - Obviously written from a sympathetic point of view.
Yahoo just ran an article on her - http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/realityrocks/123306/is-joanna-pacitti-the-next-carly-smithson/ - Plus it talks about a Barbara Walters interview and there is a link to a youtube vid of the segment.

message: It looks like this is it:
https://web.archive.org/web/20081120005117/http://griddle.baseballtoaster.com/archives/1026661.html
Here you can see a blogpostfrom 2008 on baseballtoaster referring to the "Cycle Detection Warning System". On the sidebar of this archive, we see the referenced warnings, and in particular: "If a player needs a home run for the cycle, the level of the alert varies depending upon the determination of the Cycle Detection Warning System, which is headquartered in Thief River Falls, Minnesota."
Worth note is the fact that baseballtoaster did indeed shut down in 2009:
https://fairpole.baseballtoaster.com/archives/1204218.html
I'm guessing a fan of the blog added the reference to Cycle Detection Warning System, possibly B. Timmerman himself. It appears it was just a small baseball news section published by baseballtoaster, although I was unable to find any official "about Cycle Detection Warning System" beyond what I have linked above.
It might be worthwhile to write a short wikipedia article about Baseball Toaster, and include the Cycle Detection Warning System as a brief subsection. I am not sure if web.archive.org can be cited as a source.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.252.37.232 (talk) 21:37, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

I'm not going to take it out, but I think if we have a bunch of people agree here, then it could be removed by consensus.

Talk:Steve Brown (yo-yo player)

message: I have jsut removed a most of the article as unsourced. After a good bit of searching, I was able to find claims that the "World Yo-Yo Contest" is possibly notable, but no reliable sources showing this guy placing "fourth" in 1996. Their website doesn't list an overall "winner", rather results in five categories from 2000-2007. Results from prior to that are omitted.
Next up were the companies he supposedly worked for. Unverifiable and not notable.
Finally, there was the "Bay Area Classic Invitational" A google search of that term found 7 hits: 6 of them were this article and clones, all about Brown. Finally, there was an article in "satellite: spirituality week" about...Brown. I could find no evidence that this event exists outside of stuff about Brown.
So he (supposedly, not confirmed) won a non-notable event and (supposedly, not confirmed) placed fourth in an event that has a very weak claim to notability. I'll let this article sit for a bit, then I'll likely AfD it.

Talk:Viliami Tungī Mailefihi

message: What does Mailefihi mean? Is fihi a variant of Fisi or Fiji? Does it mean Maile who went to Fiji? 
Why Iam asking is because Maile Latamai Finau was a Tongan chief who came to Fiji with his followers in the 1700s to 1800s and settled in Sigatoka, Nadroga. The war fort that he built is called Tavuni (Tapuni). His descendants still live in the villages of Malevu, Naroro, Korotogo and Cuvu in Nadroga, Waicoba in the highlands of Navosa and Vatutu and Waqadra in Nadi. The title of their current chief is Tuipelehake. Hope someone can shed some light. There is a page I have started on Tavuni Hill Fort.
:maile: a fern, fihi: tangle. Tangled fern; to release its smell better. No relation to Fiji. But then, of course, there were so many relationships between Tonga and Fiji in the 18th and 19th century, you never know what has happened. --Tauʻolunga 05:53, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
