Talk:Juhayman al-Otaybi

message: Juhayman al-Otaybi wikipedia page having a tag Infobox criminal, we could not make changes to it. Juhayman al-Otaybi neither represented to Umm Al-Qura University nor he was student. But still Google Knowledge base result shows his education refers to Umm Al-Qura University, but has studied through Islamic University of Madinah. Our prime object is we dont want to see him in Google Knowledge base results as Notable Alumni. Please suggest how can we proceed to make the changes.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Younusm (talk • contribs) 05:24, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

::Interestingly, the National Lead Company used to send small tins of "white lead" to schools to be used in art. They were meant to be passed out to the children, along with coloring cooks and such, to encourage the children to get their parents to buy the "Dutch Boy White Lead" as a base for their paints. This continued even after it was learned that lead caused damage. Worse yet was the lead candy dishes that teachers received, along with chocolates to place in them for the kids.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.50.46.125 (talk) 07:57, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Billy J. Kramer

message: I would question the statement that "Little Children" was "allegedly about getting his girlfriend's brothers and sisters out of the way so they could make love".  Firstly, it was not written by Billy J. Kramer. Secondly, the lyrics are clear.  The singer wants to "kiss" the little children's sister.  Anything more than that is not suggested.  In the 21th century that could be presumed, but not in 1964 without a hint or a double entendre.JohnC (talk) 07:50, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

message: "Kramer's cover of "Trains and Boats and Planes" saw off Anita Harris' cover version only to find itself in direct competition with Dionne Warwick's version, which won the day."
1. Anita Harris's version released on PYE failed to reach the top 50 in the UK, and according to wikipedia PYE didn't release records in the US under their own name. According to her discography on wikipedia, the Guinness Book of British Hit Singles, and Panther Books' Rock File 4: Chart Log of American/British Top 20 Hits 1955-74, no single of this title was released by Dionne Warwick in the UK or the US. Unless anyone can prove otherwise, I intend to edit this statement to:
 
Kramer's cover of Bacharach and David's "Trains and Boats and Planes" saw off Anita Harris' version, reaching a respectable number 12, but this was the group's swansong, as all subsequent cuts missed the chart.[2]

thread_title:  Revolution in war technique 

message: Completely incomprehensible. The section seems to consist largely of some editor's learned and sophisticated elaborations, corrections and even rebuttal of some sort of 'standard view' about a 'revolution' pertaining to linear tactics apparently developed largely by one Roberts, but in his zeal the editor also seems to have deleted any and all explanations of Roberts' thesis, so we don't even understand what he is objecting to. Finally, we are left with no clear picture of what 'revolution' did, in fact, take place, if any. Besides, the description is non-neutral, since it explicitly presents Roberts as wrong and the rebuttal of his thesis is correct, and it's possibly original research, too, if these are the editor's own competent objections. 87.126.21.225 (talk) 07:15, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Bismarck High School

message: Hi, I don't understand which? Bismarck High School was original built in 1873 or 1884? Click to http://www.bismarckcafe.com/blogs/wiki/bismarck-high-school I read the BisMan Café Newspaper.
Bismarck High School has been serving Bismarck for over one hundred years. Its current facility was completed in 1935 at an initial cost of $404,000. Bismarck High was the city’s only public high school until the completion of Century High School in 1976. Its school colors are maroon and white, and its Demon mascot has been used since 1922.
Bismarck’s High School, as it was originally called, was first housed inside the North Ward School, which was built in 1884. The first graduating class, in 1887, consisted of only two students. The high school was reorganized from a two-year program to a four-year program in 1897, commissioned by William Moore.
The first designated high school building was built in 1912, and continued to serve as the high school until the completion of its current facility in 1935. The school board had considered three different sites before choosing to build the new high school adjacent to the 1912 structure, which continued to serve as the junior high until 1961.
Bismarck High School completed its largest addition in 1963, and another minor addition in 1986, at which time it also saw major renovation. Another minor renovation came in 1998.

Talk:Tibetan sky burial

message: I use "reportedly" and similar constructions a lot, which makes the text a bit wordy.
The reason for this is that I was trying to reflect the fact that I could find nothing written by actual Tibetans or participants in the ceremony, so all the information I had was third-hand and therefore somewhat suspect. 
I don't presume to know what Tibetans think about any of this, and I am cautious about non-Tibetan observers--who in most cases do not report talking with the participants at all--presuming to know what Tibetans think. 
So even though it's wordy, I want to maintain that sense--that this is a third-hand account, not an authoritative or researched account in any way--by saying "Tibetans reportedly think..." instead of "Tibetans think..." 
As always, YMMV!
