Talk:Murder trial of O. J. Simpson

message: This appears at the end of the Bronco chase section. I see no such assertions in the cited CNN source (archive). I don't even know what it means for someone to be "sympathetic to his feelings of guilt." 2601:642:4600:D3B0:7148:A428:7894:646B (talk) 05:06, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

thread_title: "Thousands encouraged him to flee and were sympathetic to his feelings of guilt."

message: This talk discussion has been put on the talk page for "Reaction to the verdict in the O. J. Simpson criminal trial" article, so it probably fits better there already, but in footage of the reaction to the verdict that can be found, there are notably some white people celebrating the verdict; in this case, there had to be some whites who had doubts about OJ's guilt or at the very least, willing to give him the benefit of the doubt at the time, much like how vice versa, some African Americans believed in his guilt and were clearly upset over the verdict. From articles, it seems the media did not deduct this at the time. Could there be any sources to be find on this, to show how complex the reaction to the verdict varied, as if to indicate how some blacks felt OJ was guilty, some whites actually believed he was innocent (or even felt he was "covering for someone")? I'm not defending any "fringe theories" regarding the Simpson case. As a matter of fact I am pretty sure that Simpson committed the murders, and that it is likely he had no accomplices but if we're going to have to divide how people reacted to the verdict, in varying ways, it only makes sense that we should have articles detailing how people felt about the verdict and their own takes on it. 92.17.198.220 (talk) 92.17.198.220 (talk) 19:31, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

message: The article was tagged with  as "may be too long to read and navigate comfortably”.

thread_title:  Guiding 

message: Most names of countries, Greenland included, are proper nouns that do not need an article. Hence it is wrong to say *the Greenland's National Council; it's just Greenland's National Council (English would prefer an of-construction, but that's not really an option here). In the other cases, definiteness is already indicated by inflection, so inserting a whimsical the is like saying *the Folketinget, which is nonsense; it's either Folketinget or the Folketing. Please don't be arrogant.__Gamren (talk) 12:06, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been here for 11 years, you've been here (really actively) for 2 weeks. I would be careful of accusing others of arrogance if I were you. Neither Folketinget and Folketing have any meaning in English, so native English speakers (which I am and which you are not) would put a "the" in front of both of them, as being unfamiliar with Danish syntax, whereas if it were French, Spanish or German, we would generally remove the Le, El or Die and cut right to the topic, unless it was something famous like Le Morte d'Arthur, El Greco, Die Fledermaus... Since you didn't use any examples from the actual article, I will pretend I give a fuck about Danish (I don't, but I do like fighting pretentious grammar Nazis). Since I'm guessing that the -et ending is what has your panties in a wad, you could pipe it this way "the Fællesråd for Danmarks Drengespejdere". I don't know if that's correct Danish and I don't care. In summation, the "the"s stay in English, even if it makes no sense in Danish, this being the English Wikipedia after all.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 12:29, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Captagon

message: Captagon is the trademarked name of a synthetic central nervous system stimulant, Fenethylline, which is often sold in pill form. Captagon is very popular in some European countries during exam periods. Although it's very effective and by itself not dangerous, it should be used with care. Additionally, it must be noted that it is also abused as a recreational drug. It is legal in several European countries with doctor's prescription (Belgium for example) and illegal in others.

message: I have to say I find this a bizarre category: it is supposed to contain composers who have written for guitar, but would we expect similar categories for violin, flute, etc? I know that the list of composers who have written for the guitar is much smaller than that for many instruments (particularly up until the 20th century), but the number of living or recently deceased composers who have used the guitar in some way is enormous. I also notice that the composers who have been put here so far are almost all guitarist-composers. Why not rename the category 'Guitarist-composers'? Matve 13:06, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

This group, named after the Ivuna meteorite, are considered the least altered of all carbonaceous chondrites. They typically contain a high proportion of water (up to 20%), and organic matter in the form of amino acids and PAHs.

This is a poor redirect.  It seems to imply that PAHs the gene exists in carbonaceous chondrites rather than the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon.  If the gene does exist - wow - please clarify.  Thanks

message: I know nothing of Yemen, but this page makes no sense. On the Governorates of Yemen page the governorate and capital city are both listed as Al Bayda'. But the link to the page on the governorate redirects to this page, which in the first paragraph purports to be about the town of Al Bayda'. Then, in the third paragraph, it claims that "Rada" is its capital, which only makes sense if it is a governorate and not a town, and moreover contradicts the "Governorates of Yemen" page. BTW, I believe that the usual transliteration of ع is ', which would make the purported capital's name Rada' (should also not be italicized). Someone with knowledge of Yemen, please attend to this.

replies: text: Sorry, it was a frigate, not a brigantine, according to my sources (Sjálfstæði Íslands 1809 by Helgi P. Briem); but I think that may be somewhat incorrect, since most English frigates would have, at this time, been used in the Napoleonic wars. It may have been a frigate-like ship. It would have hardly classified as a sixth-rate frigate at any rate, bearing only 10 cannons - six large (12 pounders) and four wheel mounted (6 pounders). Perhaps rather in the liking of an East Indiaman? Anyway, the sail plan sounds like a frigate, so it may well have been. --Smári McCarthy 13:59, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
