Talk:Smart People

message: The plot description for this film is problematic I think, and right now is pretty weak.  I fixed an error in it, but still don't feel that it is an informative plot.  I am unsure how to do it any better, so I want to leave it up to someone else. - 
: I prefer plot summaries short, like this one.  Which I wrote ;). But expanding the "editing guidelines" above and going to WP:FilmPlot I see 400 words is the suggested minimum and I used 232, for a fairly complex plot.  As for deleting the ending, what was the error in the timeline?  "A few weeks"?  If it was something else, note that "The events of the film do not have to be described in the order in which they appear on screen", from  WP:FilmPlot. -Colfer2 (talk) 11:20, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

This site has a lengthy, scene-by-scene retelling: http://www.themoviespoiler.com/Spoilers/smartpeople.html  and though it omits the cake on the porch, I'm convinced it is much earlier by watching clips on Youtube etc., and by the other comments here!!!

Talk:Law of Bermuda

message: Is there capital punishment in Bermuda?-I thought I read that there was, and that they were about to execute someone, but that because Bermuda is a British colony, and Britain is a member of the EU, the case got to the European Court of Human Rights (the death penalty being completely banned in the EU). So then it became a political football, and some have said Bermuda should become independent so that, among other things, it could retain capital punishment. Does anyone know anything about this?-Perhaps it was another island. 132.235.120.91 19:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

text:  As for the decision, the essay on Schools notability specifically requires the inclusion of outside sources. I don't personally find the Government source external as it is a major funder of school - It's also an essay not a guideline. Philipwhiuk (talk) 22:03, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

text:  As a former pupil, I would argue that its initially rare status as a CTC would be the main claim for notability.  The college generated a lot of politicised debate due to its funding status and was often in the local press over its pupil selection policy, "liberal" policies (such as not having detention periods) and the initial refusal of other LEA funded schools to participate in sporting fixtures due to its CTC status.  One of its members of staff (a Mr Wood) was also in the press after being prosecuted for sexual offences. SheffGruff (talk) 22:31, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk:The Captain's Doll

message: Nasnema,
As I've explained on your talk page, this all too common English usage error, has nothing at all to do with "local dialect."  Given that you are evidently British and have displayed over your history of edits here a very marked preference for your own "local dialect," I refer you to the entry for "enormity" in the highly respected (British) Compact Oxford English Dictionary:
enormity
    1 [mass noun] (the enormity of) the great or extreme scale , seriousness, or extent of something perceived as bad or morally wrong:a thorough search disclosed the full enormity of the crime
    (in neutral use) large size or scale:I began to get a sense of the enormity of the task
    2 a grave crime or sin:the enormities of war
Origin:
late Middle English: via Old French from Latin enormitas, from enormis, from e- (variant of ex-) 'out of' + norma 'pattern, standard'. The word originally meant ‘deviation from legal or moral rectitude’ and ‘transgression’. Current senses have been influenced by  enormous
Usage
Enormity traditionally means‘ the extreme scale or seriousness of something bad or morally wrong’, as in residents of the town were struggling to deal with the enormity of the crime. Today, however , a more neutral sense as a synonym for hugeness or immensity, as in he soon discovered the enormity of the task, is common. Some people regard this use as wrong, arguing that enormity in its original sense meant ‘a crime’ and should therefore continue to be used only of contexts in which a negative moral judgement is implied. Nevertheless, the sense is now broadly accepted in standard English, although it generally relates to something difficult, such as a task, challenge, or achievement
The sentence in the The Captain's Doll namepge that I'd edited did not use "enormity" to characterize "something difficult, such as a task, challenge, or achievement," so its usage to apply to an object -- "this natural wonder" (referring to the mountain) -- was incorrect as a matter of even "modern" standard English, even in its least prescriptive BRITISH application: 
The couple ascend the mountain together, and the sheer enormity of this natural wonder prompts discussion of the smallness of a human being in comparison, bringing the Captain to make megalomaniacal claims that he is indeed bigger than the mountain.
