Talk:Lance Alworth

message: It seems to me that the guardians of Wikipedia are somewhat hypocritical. "P sites like Pro Football Reference and Data Base Football, which "promote themselves" and have pop-ups and advertisement on their sites to make themselves money, are ok to be listed in every player's Infobox; yet my page on the Roster of All AFL Players is dismissed as "self promotion" even though I ask nothing of the reader, and the page offers information that is available at NO ONE PLACE anywhere else on the internet. Isn't it conceivable that a user who looks up "Bud Abell" or "Lance Alworth" would like to know where he can find a list of all AFL players in one place?
I have never been able to figure out how to make these "discussions" interactive, or to electronically sign my name. If anyone has a comment on this opinion, they can reach me at RemembertheAFL@aol.com ~ Ange Coniglio

Talk:Roxburgh College

message: I kindly request that editors refrain from blanking this page. --Clarrisani (talk) 10:57, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I have reverted your text because it is not appropriate for Wikipedia. An article should present encyclopedic information and should not use marketing jargon. Suggestion: At the bottom of the article, click an appropriate category ("High schools in Victoria (Australia)"?). That will show a list of vaguely similar colleges. Of course some of those articles will not be appropriate, but some will look like an encyclopedic article as opposed to a promotional piece that one might find on a college website. That is the kind of article that is suitable for Wikipedia. If you have a specific question, you may like to ask here. Johnuniq (talk) 11:26, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks, Arcardian. I had previously left this section alone even although I didn't agree with it (I believe I wrote the introductory bit which is more appropriate). However, as it stands it is incorrect. Our anonymous editor may be justified. The middle meningeal artery runs outside the dura, so a torn MMA causes an extradural hematoma. This is indeed extremely uncommon in infants. Extradural bleeding requires huge pressure and must therefore be arterial. Subdural bleeding requires only venous pressure and is therefore usually venous. I will rewrite. Preacherdoc 21:15, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Date of birth? 

message: This statement added on Feb 19, 2017 to the opening section reads: "he is a seminal figure in mid 20th century entertainment and an icon in the history of American rock and roll music." I initially merely requested a citation, but the more I thought about it I removed it as being a questionable summation of this subjects place in popular and entertainment culture. That he was successful as a recording artist and performer is not in doubt. That along with Annette Funicello he was an icon of the 1960's Beach Party Genre is also true. But considering he has never been considered by consensus within the entertainment industry to be on a "seminal" influential level along side the likes of those who indisputably are (such as Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, Johnny Carson, Chuck Berry, etc.), this sentence seems a gross overstatement of a singular opinion. Likewise, few historians, scholars, journalists--and even fans--consider him an icon of rock and roll. For example, in a quarter century's worth of eligibility, he's never even been a nominee for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (for whatever that may be worth.)  If a credible source can be found it may deserve to be restored, and I am willing to debate it's veracity. ShelbyMarion (talk) 19:16, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Cowboys and Angels (George Michael song)

message: "Among other things, the song is notable for being written in waltz time".  Maybe a musical expert could comment on this, as I am not one of them, but I'm pretty sure the rhythm to this song is a jazz waltz, which is not the same, or even close, to the rhythm of a traditional/classical waltz.  I think it's an important distinction because the way it reads at the moment implies that the song is notable for sounding like a waltz, such as The Blue Danube, which couldn't be further from the truth.  If by using the term 'waltz time' the original author simply wanted to imply that the song was written in 3/4 time, then I would argue that that's hardly notable.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:DA00:1400:38FF:613A:1532:20CA (talk) 10:25, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
