message: Why was this article delisted? It had no NPOV issues, was well-written, well-balanced and said all it had to say.
Also, why are all nomination from this is messedrocker from FA material. These articles don't really need to have a stable revision because they are on everybody's watchlist and they are reverted in seconds. What this project should aim at are articles that aren't on people's watchlist that are well-written and need to be stable in order to prevent the readers to see the vandalism.

Talk:Taiwan Sign Language

message: The 82,558 number given for the population in this article is actually the number of deaf and hard-of-hearing population in Taiwan given by the Ministry of the Interior in 2001.  There is no guarantee that this corresponds to the number of people who sign Taiwanese Sign Language. Any thoughts on what to do about this discrepancy? 
I hope to add information about the syntax and morphology of TSL at some point. 
Any additional description of dialectal differences would be great.  Huteson (2003) says that Tainan school TSL was based off of Osaka dialect of JSL while Taipei school TSL was based off of the Tokyo dialect.  I only have limited experience around Taichung which was very mixed.  It would be great to elucidate the main differences.  
Is there any information about sign language users in the Pescadores, Matzu or Quemoy?  Do they use TSL? --WilliamDParker 09:51, 2006 September 6‎
:Unless deaf people return to those islands after being educated in one of the deaf schools, there would presumably only be homesign there.
:Hurlbut reports that Hong Kong SL is closer lexically to TSL than to CSL, and claims that all three belong to the same family. Someone is wrong here. Maybe Tainan SL is of the Chinese family (Shanghainese started a school in Kaohsiung in the 1920s) and Taipei SL is of the JSL family? — kwami (talk) 02:06, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Kevin Siembieda

message: The claim that Palladium "became the first commercially successful attempt to create an all-encompassing, "megaversal" role-playing system" seems like a canard because "commercially successful" is pretty subjective. GURPS could make this claim, as could Hero System. And while Palladium uses a single system for all its sourcebooks, unlike GURPS it wasn't initially designed with a single sourcebook to encompass multiple genres. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Steveg99 (talk • contribs) 04:19, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

message: "On August 15, 2008, Erick was awarded an ENnie (Gen Con EN World RPG Awards) for Lifetime Achievement. Erick was presented with the award in January 2008 by Kevin Siembieda in front of family and friends before he died." Theres clearly an error in this timeline, but no idea where to go to find out more. 74.128.56.194 (talk) 20:09, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: There would seem to be an error, but it is one of inept phrasing (apologies to the original author), not mistaken chronology. Since their inception in 2001, the ENnies have been given out during a ceremony at Gen Con, traditionally held in early August. In general, the eligibility period for candidate submissions ends in April and nominees are announced in July. Although I cannot find very much information about it on their website, I reason that the Lifetime Achievement award must be a special honor granted at the discretion of EN World, rather than conferred by popular vote, as is the case with other award categories. To date, only three individuals have received it: Dave Arneson, Gary Gygax, and Erick Wujcik, all of whom were recognised in 2008. Gygax died on March 4, and Wujcik on June 7, so obviously neither of them were able to accept their awards in person at that year's official ceremony on August 15. Being aware of his diagnosis and uncertain of his prognosis, EN World decided instead to present Wujcik with the award earlier than usual, at his birthday party on January 6, 2008. - Apo-kalypso (talk) 04:09, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
