Talk:Fukiya

message: One such poison, aconite, could kill the victim before he even had time to open his mouth.
This sounds very dubious to me. While aconite is quite fast-acting, the prospect of a subcutaneous dose killing or even incapaciting the victim within a couple of seconds seems rather implausible. This claim needs either cites or removal. --Calair 02:19, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Needs references

message: :This article, and Richard Longworth, are about subjects that committed multiple murders in a single night. The victims, Alexander George Hopps (age 19) and James Todd Greene (age 24) did nothing to deserve being executed yet the perpetrators have articles. There is a reason we should cover the victim(s), and not the murderer(s), and mainly because it is fundamentally wrong, unless there are "clear" instances of notability and David Rocheville does not show to be notable.
*Aside from the above these are non-referenced articles about murderers. There were apparently 98 executions in 1999, and all but four were by lethal injection, so there is nothing "worthy of note" about this article, or the other subject, that can not be covered at List of people executed in South Carolina or somewhere else if at all.

Talk:Same Old Lang Syne

message: Dan Fogleberg said that this happened in either 1975 or 1976.  I checked the weather history in the Old Farmer's Almanac website, and in Peroia, IL, it shows that it snowed on Dec. 24, 1975, but not on Dec. 24, 1976, meaning that this incident most likely took place in 1975 (which makes sense, since it was late 1975, it's understandable that he'd be confused as to whether it was 1975 or 1976).  However, the end of the song said "The snow turned into rain".  I don't know if that actually happened, or if it was metaphorical.  The history for Dec. 24, 1975 shows snow only.  However, for Dec. 24, 1974, it shows both snow and rain.  So it is possible that maybe he was a year off, and this took place in 1974 (again, maybe he confused late 1974 with 1975, perhaps combined with his memory of snow on Christmas Eve in 1975).  What does everyone think?
Regarding the summary--oy! Can it be rewritten so that it doesn't feel like such an awkward rehash of the lyrics? I mean, any summary of this song has got to rehash the lyrics, but this one does so so artlessly that we'd be better off just repeating them verbatim.Epenthesis (talk) 02:13, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That makes sense.  So (assuming the Old Farmer's Almanac weather history is accurate), the snow turning into rain was just metaphorical, while the actual snow was literal.  Plus, as I said, it makes sense for "either 1975 or 1976" to mean late 1975.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.64.197 (talk) 23:54, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

message: I agree the text should be rewritten in a way where it is not so close to the original lyrics as it is now. It could be much shorter, too. Also, the text says that the lover said she saw the narrator in a record store. I think this doesn't mean that she saw him in person (otherwise, the whole song would'nt make much sense, because she could have spoken to him then), but that she saw a record by him in a store. That's quite important because it states explicitly that the narrator is a musician which makes the song even more personal.

thread_title:  Description of the song text 

message: Took out the line describing snow as an occurance in the upper latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, located in the last section of the article. Its a bit overencyclopedical (is this a word?) for an article not titled "Snow", not to mention snow falls other places besides that, and as much as it was overkill, it should've made the connection between snow and Christmas/the holiday season. I replaced it with a line making that connection.John ISEM (talk) 21:42, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Vitriol

message: [copied from the sulfuric acid talk]
I'm re-suggesting the merging of the two articles, to a point: the information about the history and chemical composition of sulfuric acid is already covered on the sulfuric acid page. There is the point about the phrase "to hurl vitriol", but Wikipedia is not a dictionary. The vitriol page should remain, but should focus on information pertinent to the word itself, perhaps including a bit about the fake alchemy acronym, and its use in alchemy - but all the duplicated info should just be replaced with a link to sulfuric acid.

::Having an article on studying rather than redirecting to a disambig page would indeed be useful. There might possibly be a resource for this in Wikibooks, you can check. I think it can be generally assumed that regular studying will improve someone's grades, including cramming, though regular intermittant study with understanding is probably better. The pros are better knowledge and memory of the subject matter. The cons are that it can be stressful and time consuming, and might interfere with sleep. A mind should be well-rested for a test. It is still easily possible to do both though, so desire for adequate rest is not an excuse to avoid studying. Tyciol 00:52, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Category talk:Peace organizations

message: I think Anti-Iraq War groups should remain a subcategory of Peace organizations, for fairly obvious reasons.  However, I also think that, in a special-case violation of Wikipedia:Categorization guidelines, articles in this category can also be acceptably listed in the category Peace organizations, because many of them have been or are involved in a number of peace activities other than opposition to the Iraq War, and so it would be misleading to categorize them as solely Anti-Iraq War groups.  For example, Vietnam Veterans Against the War is much better known for Vietnam-era activities, so it would be strange if the only categorization on its page were as anti-Iraq War.  However, it is, in fact, now opposed to the Iraq War, so it would be equally strange to leave it off that list.  I'm just explicitly justifying apparent existing practice.
