Talk:Search engine submission

message: This section removed
information is not correct. View is not of proper scope.
There are many types of submission types including xml transfers for site maps
tab delimited submission for product feeds, etc.  All these things fall into the cat of search engine submission.

thread_title: Removing this section entirely: Search engine submission no longer necessary

message: I removed this content:
::Many once-small search engines in China and India are getting more and more popular after 2007. For example: Baidu.com (Nasdaq:BIDU) was not well known at the beginning. It is now the most popular search engine in China, while Google is in second place. Without submitting to these search engines via search engine submission software, you may miss millions of visitors who might come to your website via these search engines. The second benefit is that, some search engine submission software not only submit your web site to search engines, but also add links to your web site from their own link pages submitted. This is very helpful in increasing your web site's ranking, because external links are one of the most important factors to a web site's ranking.
It is uncited, reads like advertising for search engine submission services, and baring evidence to the contrary, is likely just as much a scam as submissions to English websites. - SimonP (talk) 19:33, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is the section is false when it says "without submitting to these search engines via search engine submission software, you may miss millions of visitors." Baidu, like every modern search engine, runs a webcrawler that regularly scans the web. This makes manually submitting a site unnecessary. Baidu will find it with no action by the site owner. - SimonP (talk) 21:22, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you have any evidence that "at that time, Baidu's webcrawler was focusing on Chinese websites rather than English websites."  Here is an article from 2010 about Baidu and Yandex aggressively spidering English websites. I can see posts from as early as 2005 about Baidu. In the modern era any major search engine spiders everything. - SimonP (talk) 15:43, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

Talk:HMS Tracker (D24)

message: This is just for informational purposes ref HMS Tracker. In approx 1991, a close friend now deceased, found a very large ship's bell in the York River, Yorktown, Va; the name on the bell was HMS TRACKER. I have always been curious as to how this bell ever got there. I can only guess it came from the D24 since she was salvaged.Carriesmom5871 12:34, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

message: 1. In the 'History' section Tracker is "...converted into an escort carrier...", but in para one of 'Design and description', it states: "They [the ships] were also laid down as escort carriers and not converted merchant ships".
2. According to the 'Design and description' section, para three, Tracker could accommodate 24 aircraft; but in the infobox that figure changes to 16-21.

That seems to be the name of a small bridge close to the Royal Oak station, as seen on this Google maps page.

message: Hi Hqb - nice, prompt and approporiate edits to the stuff that I did earlier. Respect.
However, as far as I can work out Jacomb had been Brunel's assistant on the Great Eastern; but he was Chief Engineer on the London and South Western Railway when he got to build this bridge? I'm not at all sure about this, so don't want to simply edit back, but ...
:I believe you are right; I just wanted to add a little context, given that Jacomb doesn't have his own article yet, while most readers will have heard of Brunel. I've changed it to "former assistant", which should be clearer, especially since Brunel was long dead by the time Jacomb started working on this bridge. Hqb 19:13, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bodyline (miniseries)

message: while watching this show i have seen a few interesting quotes in 2nd last body line episode be thrown out and i am wondering if they were added for drama or where actually legitly said during the real bodyline series. so far i have been unable to find solid evidence to say yes or no. i also apologise for the below names always escape me when I stop watching things.
quotes in question:
after an australian batsman was knocked from a hit to the head and the Austrlian fans "rioted" burning a flag (i know this part did not happen). the person who said there are 2 teams out there and only 1 is playing cricket said a new quote "this isn't cricket it is war". did he really say this new quote?
also on field during a match prior to the one listed above Jardine luckily avoided being bowled and caught. when that happened an australian fielder commented he is a lucky bastard to which another said no he is just a bastard. after the innings Jardine demmanded an apology to his honor which the Aussie captian agreed was fair and called out "oy Bastards, which one of you bastards called this bastard a bastard" while i can picture an Australian saying this as a light hearted comment i really can not see it ever being used in a match let alone when someone is complaining that they were insulted. 
if anyone knows if these 2 events really occured or not would appreciate it. 152.91.9.153 (talk) 21:22, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes Woodful did say something along the lines of "there's two teams out there etc etc". See the article on the Adelaide Leak for a full account. I think the second quote is possibly more apocryphal than an exact quote. Tigerman2005 (talk) 01:10, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: From someone's imagination... Yes there are elements/incidents in the series which are fabricated or exaggerated but to dismiss the whole thing as a "ludicrous travesty of the real events" is just not true.

Possibly it warrants a chapter on the differences between film and real events but gee I've seen worse treatment of history than this. Oh I'm going to delete that sentence too.

message: After reading Wikipedia:External links and its talk page, I'm removing the link that I added, and restoring the previous order in which the other links were listed. I'm retaining my other changes to de-promotionalize this section: remove bold; standardize placement of descriptions outside of links; and consolidate 2 links for the same domain into one listing. I'm also editing one link's description to de-promotionalize it.
Regarding the link to Israeli Music Net, I find that it appears to be solely to promote the work of 
one artist or group. I plan to delete it, but will wait a few days to see if there's a contrary opinion.
I'm not sure that any of the other links is substantial enough to belong here, either, but I'll leave that issue to others more familiar with this article topic and the relevant WP guidelines.
