Talk:History of Dream Theater

message: What is the point of this article? I haven't had time to read it word for word, but it seems to be almost a direct copy of the history section of the main DT article. Having an article like this does neither article justice. Either we should greatly expand this article to include thing not listed in the original article, or summarize the history section of the DT article so that readers there can get the summary at this article. I personally prefer the latter option, as I think this article goes into a lot of depth, and that it could also be consisely summarized in the DT article. Dave the Red (talk) 01:36, Apr 20, 2005 (UTC)
: This page is the original, unabridged history. The history section in the main Dream Theater page is a LOT shorter than this one. It was suggested to me that it would be a good idea to move the complete history to a new article (this one) and leave only the most important aspects of it within the original, so that's what I've done. This could probably use a better introduction, but it's no different to, for example, History of the Beatles. -- plattopusis this thing on? 03:13, Apr 20, 2005 (UTC)
::I think that this article is unimportant. It would be better that the history of dream theater to remain only in their main article. --Aeternus 18:42, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't agree with this, because the quality of Dream Theater article will be lost, if the history of the band is removed. I still insist to delete this article and put all the history on the Dream Theater's main page. Thank you Aeternus 07:36, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Merge the two. This article is compltely superfluous, and there are many other metal articles with equally long history sections. XJDenton 16:45, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Let's civilly discuss these images, rather than keep on removing them and replacing them. It's frivolous. I note that NFCC has been noted, but "What counts as exempt under NFCC can be controversial, and should be established as a violation first. Consider reporting to the Wikipedia:Non-free content review noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption." In other words, if it's debated about whether something should stay, bring it up as a community member before deleting another editor's work. It's always easier to delete than to restore, especially when some images are difficult to source, such as these. The validity of these images is based on the fact that each of them indicates the respective album's cover. Each is worthy of being kept on that merit. This isn't a list, it's a collective album series, so the "list" argument doesn't stand, and finally, each of these albums has no merit being individually categorised or set up as its own article and a collective article is more appropriate, given the collective subject matter. --rm 'w avu 08:44, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

I don’t think that is true. Both ASEA and Brown, Boveri & Cie produced rolling stock (EMU:s and locomotives) right up until the merger in 1988. When it comes to ASEA, I know that products developed by ASEA (like X10-family of EMU:s and X2000) were built as ABB.

thread_title: Reason for Name Change

message: L'Enfant identified himself as "Peter Charles L'Enfant" during most of his life, while residing in the United States. (See: Bowling, Kenneth R (2002). Peter Charles L'Enfant: vision, honor, and male friendship in the early American Republic. George Washington University, Washington, D.C.)  He wrote this name on his "Plan of the city intended for the permanent seat of the government of t(he) United States ...." (Washington, D.C.) and on other legal documents. However, during the early 1900's, a French ambassador to the U.S., Jean Jules Jusserand, popularized the use of L'Enfant's birth name, "Pierre Charles L'Enfant". (See: Bowling (2002).) The National Park Service identifies L'Enfant as "Major Peter Charles L'Enfant" and as "Major Pierre (Peter) Charles L'Enfant" on its website. The United States Code states in : "(a) In General.—The purposes of this chapter shall be carried out in the District of Columbia as nearly as may be practicable in harmony with the plan of Peter Charles L'Enfant." The 2010 edition of the United States Capitol Historical Society's calendar identified L'Enfant as "Peter L'Enfant" in the legend of its picture for the month of November. For those reasons, all Wikipedia articles should identify L'Enfant as "Pierre (Peter) Charles L'Enfant", rather than as "Pierre Charles L'Enfant" or as "Pierre L'Enfant.

Talk:Meforshim

message: For my two cents: I think that the article on Bible Commentaries which is horrible and distinctly christian should be expanded. No, I just found Biblical exegesis and these two should be merged. The article on Jewish Biblical exegesis should be seriously expanded, discussing the perushim and mefar'shim on tanach, their genre and their approach, but not merely listing the authors.
I think this article, as it stands, should be merged with Rabbinic literature, with the rabbinic literature article being extended to discuss the general genres of literature, biblical exegesis being somewhat different to talmud commentaries. I do not think there should be an article called meforshim, and I do not think the content of the present article should be separate from the Rabbinic literature article.
Basically the whole thing's a mess including:
*Jewish Biblical exegesis
*Rabbinic literature
*Bible Commentaries
*Biblical exegesis
*Exegesis
and this article, many of which need to be merged and expanded.
My two cents became 50. --jnothman 14:20, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Jnothman.  The articles on Bible Commentaries,Biblical exegesis, Exegesis, and Jewish Biblical exegesis should all be merged into one article.  The article on Rabbinic literature, of course, should remain distinct.  As such, there will be some overlap, but that's Ok.  I have already moved the information from Biblical Commentaries to Biblical exegesis.  I then NPOV'ed the Biblical Exegesis entry. RK 01:31, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)
*Jewish Biblical exegesis now moved to Rabbinical literature, as that page consisted of "one line headings" and if it were ever written, it would in any case merely duplicate the "Rabbinical literature" article. IZAK 07:56, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Enlightenment in Spain

message: Reading the text I understand that Britain devastate spanish empire in America and prevent the gold shipments:
Britain elected to devastate Spain's New World empire and her gold shipments, hoping to prevent Philip from buying the Austrians into intervention; the plan succeeded
But the Wikipedia article about that war http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Spanish_War_(1727–1729)did not mention anything like that!. Indeed it says:
Britain had tried to use its naval power early in the dispute, by blockading Porto Bello in Panama but the attempt proved a disaster, in which 4,000 men were lost to disease. The main objective of the blockade had been to prevent Spanish galleons leaving and sailing for Spain, but the blockaders failed to do this - and eventually withdrew.
What plan succeed?  the devastation (like article seems to suggest) or the Treaty of Hannover to prevent Austrian aid? (No irony here, it's a real question!)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bornava (talk • contribs) 09:27, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Q 

message: I have written in the talk section twice about the problem with this article.  It is called "Enlightenment in Spain," but the first section of it is largely political history of the Bourbon monarchs through Ferdinand VII. I propose that section be made a separate article "History of Spain, 1700-1810."  There is already an article History of Spain (1810–73). In my view 1810 is a somewhat awkward date to start that article, given the complicated history between 1808 and 1814. The section section of the article here deals with ideas and practices of the Enlightenment, which is what the focus of the article should be in my assessment. I would like community input on this proposal. Amuseclio (talk) 17:15, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
