Talk:Hoquiam, Washington

message: Moved to this talk page until this innuendo and rumor, found on the main site since May 2007, a contribution by an anonymous user, can be confirmed:
Although Hoquiam has a small town charm, the neighboring Aberdeen has the highest rate of crime in Washington state (relative to density). Aberdeen is jokingly called "Meth Capital USA" by the Hoquiam police force.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Reportersteven (talk • contribs) 16:29, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

First, the date - 1884 - is years too early. Electric railway cars of the type clearly visible did not exist at 1884. 
Second, the street railway system in Aberdeen and Hoquiam did not open to 1904.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:A1F0:BD0:B01D:ABCC:2F35:EB22 (talk) 21:40, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

message: The first line of the History segment currently reads "Montesano was first platted in 1738". I tagged this as dubious because the Washington coastline was not explored by Europeans at the time and there certainly were no overland expeditions at that time.

Talk:Herbert Gille

message: I would like to raise the issue of inclusion of 2 books in the bibliography that are not used for citations:
* 
Williamson is considered an "admirer" of Waffen-SS, who "sought to restore [its] tarnished reputation in the West and reiterate its superb fighting qualities by letting the veterans tell their stories. The results are predictably positive." . Cited to: 
I don't have a secondary source for Knights of the Reich
* 
but I believe some original research is permitted when evaluating sources for inclusion. Title speaks for itself (IMO), but here's an Amazon review: "That Gunther Fraschka is a hero worshipper, not a biographer and certainly not a scholar, is painfully evident in this collection of sketches purporting to commemorate the deeds of Hitler's greatest heroes. Worse, his writing style is atrocious (or Johnston's translation is), consisting of prose more appropriate to a high-school essay than a serious study of the essence of heroism." 
I therefore question the inclusion of these two works in the bibliography; moreover, they serve no purpose as they are not used for citations. 
I earlier had two separate discussions on this topic on other articles. Here are the discussions in question: 
*  Sources not used in citations
*  Otto Kumm document removed: comment
I would appreciate input on this matter.K.e.coffman (talk) 03:30, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Clyde Hill, Washington

message: I hadn't seen a political section| I'd like to add a section to the page for Snoqualmie, Washington, but I'm not sure how to find voting records by city. Washington is very liberal within about 25 miles of Seattle and very conservative outside that radius. Snoqualmie is on that radius, and feels pretty mixed. School bonds routinely fail, and there was surprisingly little support for a municipal swimming pool as part of the YMCA community center.

message: I actually came upon this page hoping to find out the origins of the toponym "Novelty Hill", but the thoroughly sanitized statistics and post-2000 information on the page is useless in that regard. I would welcome some information about how "Novelty Hill" got its name. "Union Hill", too, though that's of less interest to me, and is a much less "novel" name for a hill or other place, though it might be of interest to know whether the reference is to the Northern States in the Civil War of 1861-65, or to the labor-union movement, or something else. --Haruo (talk) 18:43, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Maureen Birnbaum, Barbarian Swordsperson

message: It's my reading of WP:NOR and WP:RS that every article needs clearly cited sources. I would further submit that when the topic of the article is either itself a work of literary fiction or a character within such works, basing the article on those works and not literary criticism is original research. I have not added what I strongly believe to be appropriate templates to this article a fourth time because it's clear that we're eventually going to get to violations of the three revert rule if I continue on that course and that we're going to end up having a lame edit war if we go down that path. Therefore, it's my intent to place this in talk where it won't be arbitrarily removed by any party and hope to create the sort of consensus we value in this project. If it doesn't come by itself, I may consider a third opinion or a request for comment. Erechtheus 23:13, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

* It's written in bullet points. It should be rewritten in paragraphs.
* It contains two bullet points about issues that Bo Jangeborg had with Edge. These aren't related to the game's reception, so should not appear in this section.
* The aforementioned two bullet points make claims that aren't fully substantiated. They're supported by a citation, but the citation is an interview with Bo Jangeborg himself.

thread_title:  Effective date 

message: Currently we have this article, which is not terribly edifying in its current state, plus a maze of redlinks and bad redirects for related concepts such as legal force, legal effect, force of law, and the like. Given the challenges of global articles on amorphous legal concepts, any solution to this problem is going to have problems of its own. But I would like to try to get things a little better than they are now. How an instrument comes into force/effect is a subtopic of legal force and effect in general, so I am thinking of moving this article to something like Effect (law). Most of the current content would then go into a "Coming into force" subsection (thus preserving the edit history). Currently playing around with this at User:Visviva/Force of law. I think this arrangement would be an improvement for both readers and editors. It would also bring our treatment of the topic into better alignment with non-English wikis. -- Visviva (talk) 05:28, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk:National Register of Historic Places listings in Ingham County, Michigan

message: I perfectly understood the logic of the first revert, but the second revert is ill-considered. Using Internal links to sections of other articles is useful and entirely proper is to make it easier for readers to cross-link relevant information. The reverted link was to a well-referenced section in the J.W. Knapp Company article discussing in detail the J.W. Knapp Company Building. 
If you'd rather have a separate article on the building, you are welcome to spin off that section into a new article. Be my guest. But to revert an internal link with an imperious pronouncement "We write articles on individual buildings..." is more than a bit over the top.Fladrif (talk) 20:39, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

File talk:Man In The High Castle map.PNG

message: I don't believe that this map is accurate.  In the novel, the real-world U.S. is divided as follows:
--Pacific States of America (PSA): As shown in the map, part of the Greater East Asian (or Pacific) Co-Prosperity Sphere, i.e. under effective Japanese occupation.
--Rocky Mountain States (RMS): A buffer state, politically neutral.  Frequented by agents of Japan and Germany.  Not shown on the map.
--The United States of America: the Germans leave the remainder of the country intact but under a collaborationist government à la Vichy France. Strong German diplomatic and military presence. Although Dick does mention "the South" in one passage as if it were a separate nation, he speaks elsewhere of the U.S. as if its boundaries, aside from the detachment of the PSA and RMS, remained intact.  (The genocide against African-Americans that apparently has taken place in the southern states probably has occurred at the hands of Americans enabled by Nazi racial theory, not by the Nazis themselves directly, although this is just my opinion.) 
Furthermore, Canada is not, as shown, under the control of Germany, since Bob Hope broadcasts anti-Hitler propaganda from there.
These discrepancies seem to me great enough to justify deletion of the image.  I would hope that its creator would be able to revise and re-post a corrected version (and I do appreciate his or her detailed work--what a great book!).
