#. Move it an expand it.  The actual content for Battlefield Ohio is not really sufficient for its own page.  As a sub-section to Indecision 2006 (which could seperately also discuss things such as the 1hr special with Colbert Report and other segments prior to Battlefield Ohio), it would be a better fit --Forgottenlord 18:43, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Fatimah bint Husayn

message: At the time of the Battle of Karbala, Husayn had a daughter Fatima, known as Fatima Kubra (Big Fatima) or Sakina, who was about 11 years old and seems to have died in Damascus of mistreatment.  Another daughter, Fatema Sugra bint Husayn, 8 years old, was too ill to travel.  A third daughter, Ruqayya, also known as Sukayna, 4 years old, accompanied the expedition that ended at Karbala, and was taken prisoner to Damascus, where she died of mistreatment, and is buried.

replies: text: I'd have to read it again if I was to put up a detailed summary here, but sketchily it tells the story of her life, from growing up in a Methodist household with Republican parents, then waking up to the Democratic party (after starting work for the Republican party), then meeting Bill Clinton at university...Later it explains her struggle with being a first lady (the public image dilemma), her failed job at improving the health system, her struggle over her husband's affair, her rise to senatorship...It's a good read. There are also some revealing snippets about how she likes Seamus Heaney's poetry a lot, and how meeting Robert Mugabe was a most frightful experience. Zigzig20s 06:22, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Many thanks!  You can tell that I am obviously too lazy to read it myself.  I think I shall eventually though. But it's good for people to be able to have a light plot summary in the article, like most other pages on Wikipedia about books. Jamandell (d69) 15:21, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bogside railway station

message: The picture that has been taken, there's a building with a red door in the background, could this have been a station building?  It's certainly an oldish building and is close enough to the trackbed. Douglasnicol 23:52, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah the same thought crossed my mind, it's very possible. There's a photo at the RCAHMS site, taken on 1962 (and funnily enough from near enough the exact spot I took my picture), but unfortunately the area where that building is is covered with steam!

replies: text: It's very possible that it's the ticket office or station masters house, since that was the days that stations were manned and weren't glorified bus shelters.

Talk:Eluvium

message: The use in soil science in different, in that it is not focussed on weathering in place, rather it communicates a zone of depletion.  Does the following meet with consensus from the editors of this article?
Add: In geology, to: eluvium ... or accumulation. 
Add: As used in soil science, eluvium is material removed by eluviation, a process of depletion caused by soil acidification in combination with leaching.  An eluvial horizon is one in which sufficient colloids and soluble minerals have been removed to affect soil morphology.  An E soil horizon is the classic product of eluvation.  An albic horizon is an E horizon with sufficient thickness to affect soil classification under systems similar to USDA soil taxonomy. The zone in which eluvium accumulates (or illuviate) is termed the zone of illuviation.
I am fascinated by how the meaning of eluviation/eluvial/eluvium has drifted apart over the decades since soil science branched off from geology. I am not aware of any other similar ambiguations (I believe I just made up a word). -- Paleorthid 17:16, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Slept on it. Googled it. The term used in soil science is wikt:eluviation. Eluvium is not ever used in soil science, as far as I can find, so my proposed addition above no longer seems appropriate.  I'll dab the soil-related links from eluvium to wikt:eluviation. I'll add some disambiguation language to eluvium. -- Paleorthid 16:41, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Enoshima

message: This language is taken directly from the Japanese, and perhaps describes the policy more clearly than does the history section at Shinto#State Shinto. The Japanese name for the policy is 廃仏毀釈.

Talk:Furry lobster

message: If Synaxidae is in fact now considered to be nested within Palinuridae, then this article should either be merged with Palinuridae, or the taxon box classification and scope of the article altered, since this article only mentions 3 species in 2 genera. Furthermore, this page is redundant, since Palibythus has a page descending from Palinuridae. Reference to the former family Synaxidae can be made in the appropriate spots on the Palinuridae page.Animalparty (talk) 01:54, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: But the concept of the "furry lobster" still exists, even if it is not accorded a formal taxonomic rank. This page is nested within Palinuridae.

replies: text: I think the article shows a lot of promise, and is very well written and sourced, but it does not have enough content to upgrade its rating.  I think adding album pages would help (instead of linking to a 3rd party site), as well as adding more information about his band and influences.  Also, the introduction says that he is an author.  Did he write a book?  If so, I think that it should be included in the article (as long as it is reasonably important).  Good job so far.  – Heaven's Wrath   Talk  01:49, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

message: The article currently states "Gary Valentine was one of the founding members of Blondie, having joined the band as bassist in April 1975 when Fred Smith left to join Television." This statement contradicts itself. How can he be a founding member if he replaced Fred Smith?

This Rob Walker was not "Robert Bilbo Walker" born in 1937.

thread_title:  Robert Walker 

message: The Singles section currently contains a single "Fever Dog" from 1973 but this song does not appear to exist.
The song does not appear on any Stillwater albums or singles listed on discogs.com, 45cat.com, rateyourmusic.com, or allmusic.com.
The first release with this song seems to be the "Almost Famous" soundtrack where it is listed as being performed by the fictitious Stillwater band in that film.  The US CD booklet at https://www.discogs.com/Various-Almost-Famous-Music-From-The-Motion-Picture/release/1878102 has the writing credits as "Russell Hammond", the guitarist in the fictitious Stillwater band, and lists the performers as Marti Frederiksen, Mike McCready, Nancy Wilson, Jon Bayless, and Ben Smith, none of whom are in the original Stillwater band.  Also, the song is marked "(P) 2000".  The soundtrack version is clearly not by the original Stillwater.
As this seems to be a clear error, I will remove this entry instead of marking it citation needed or dubious.

replies: text: The reference was created after this article to have a method for citing the existence of this obscure game. It's really a placeholder more than anything else, because English-language information on this game is rare. At any rate, extensive information about ports and such has already been sort of kicked out of the Mario Bros. article already.

message: No-one but the Wikipedia describes exchanging letters in the mail as "asynchronous communication".
