Talk:Back to Mono (1958–1969)

message: First paragraph: the only exception to what?   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.176.103.74 (talk) 00:35, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Unless I've missed it, the article doesn't currently state if all tracks on this compilation are in fact mono mixes as the name implies. Obviously practically all single releases before the 70s would have been mono mixes and Spector produced many of his early recordings in the expectation that only mono mixes would be needed. However, River Deep, Mountain High has an original stereo studio mix which is the one normally used in compilations, and I suspect this is true of most of the late 60s stuff.
Unfortunately I don't own this box set so can't just listen to it to find out. Is there a WP:RS review somewhere which sheds light on this? --Ef80 (talk) 20:56, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Beale Street

message: Beale street is not parallel to Front. It intersects with it.
There is much to Beale Street's history that's neglected here, especiallyt he politicla uses of urban renewal to destroy a black cultural center (albeit one with plenty of rough edges) & remake it as a tourist destination.  While it's a fun place in it's new guise, it is also pretty much a mickey mouse version of what it once was.  I don't have time to correct it now but will try to return and do so over the holidays.
Whoever is doing it, please stop adding incorrect information. Beale Street was NOT named after Edward Fitzgerald Beale!! EF Beale graduated from Naval School in 1842. Beale Avenue was named in 1841. This is not difficult math to understand here, Edward Fitzgerald Beale was not notable enough at the time to get a street named after him! I've seen plenty of places on the web saying this incorrect information, and all of them use Wikipedia as a source for it. But, IT'S WRONG, so stop adding it back! Otto42 13:56, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't think that there needs to be all these links to software such as Copy+ and links to places to buy sky boxes -completely irrelevant in my opinion.  I'll remove these in the near future unless I get plausible arguments to the contrary.  Wikipedia is not an advertisement vehicle, neither is it the location to find ways to tamper with the firmware of electronics.

I'm just hearing it at someone else's house because I don't have Sky+ at home. They can't hear it, but that's cause it's so high. I fear it's causing tinnitus as I can still hear this horrible noise when I go outside.

Talk:The Island of the Day Before

message: Since Umberto Eco is considered firstly a semiotic author, one can argue that he must be read in his own language (as opposed to English) to truly grasp the "signs" he wants the reader to grasp and then to consider the relationships between them.
This is pure opinion, and not even a very well informed one, let alone well-written.  Eco is a perfectly capable fiction writer as well as a semiotician, and had he somehow intended regardless to somehow encode messages into the text, he would certainly be capable of doing so with more than the mere syntax of Italian.  Next time I stumble across this article, I'm deleting this item of "trivia" (that's the section it's under) unless someone else beats me to it. Chuck Adams (talk) 18:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Frank Miller (disambiguation)

message: Re Disambiguation pages with links project: Can I suggest making Frank Miller redirect to Frank Miller (comics)? I've scanned the entire "What links here" list for links that suggest anyone other than the writer and artist of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Sin City. I only found one, and I fixed it. Most don't even warrant checking because they are pages like History of Batman and 2006 in comics. Frank Miller (politician) has a substantial article but he was only "briefly Premier of Ontario in 1985", and, again, nobody's linking to him. The other two Frank Miller articles are brief stubs. --The Famous Movie Director 11:32, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  Well, the argument is that almost every current reference in Wikipedia of Frank Miller is to the comic book guy, and there are a large number (currently about 212) links that are simply Frank Miller in articles that come to this disambiguation page, and this is seen as undesirable.  Please see Disambiguation pages with links if you're not already familiar with it.  Having considered it, I now support creating Frank Miller (disambiguation) with the content of this page, and redirecting the plain Frank Miller page to Frank Miller (comics) --Estarriol talk 16:54, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Now that we know that everything that links to the disambiguation page is referring to comics (good job Mr. Snow), a redirect would sure save a lot of work. A user called Natalya on the Disambiguation pages with links talk page says that the comics Frank Miller doesn't seem much more noteworthy than the politician. But I doubt this is true; we're talking about a dead man who was briefly a premier in 1985 versus one of the most important people in the entertainment industry right now. Secondly, Wikipedians are a worldwide network of nerds, with an intense interest in topics like comics (for a nice illustration, compare the Gorilla Grodd article to the one on, say, Leopold Bloom). The people who write intensely detailed articles about comics are going to keep linking to the disambiguation page forever. We could solve that entire problem with one redirect (and, of course, a header on the Frank Miller (comics) page, directing people who are looking for other Frank Millers elsewhere). --The Famous Movie Director 05:02, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
