Talk:U.S. National Whitewater Center

message: Once again someone at USNWC has tried to turn this article into an advertising brochure.  I am tempted to simply revert all the changes, but I will look at them first.  In the meantime, I am restoring the whitewater course infobox.  HowardMorland (talk) 19:17, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I noticed that as well. The "Guests can enjoy" sentence is definitely just taken from http://usnwc.org/about/, for example. But it sounds like you have knowledge of and interest in this subject and this article (whereas I just stumbled upon this when researching Charlotte, North Carolina), so I'll leave fixing it to you :) BreakfastJr (talk) 06:30, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I restored the article to an earlier version.  I would request that people at the U.S. National Whitewater Center stop trying to change this article into an advertising brochure.  As it is now, it follows the style of articles about other artificial whitewater facilities, such as those in Europe and elsewhere that are used for canoe slalom training and competition, as is this one.  I understand that in this country, where canoe slalom is not as popular as it is in Europe, artificial whitewater channels are not supported by the government or sponsored by industry.  Consequently, the Charlotte facility must make a living as a multi-purpose family theme park.  However, the thing that makes it different from a Busch Gardens park or a Six Flags park is the pump-powered water channel.  And the article does contain a comprehensive list of the non-whitewater features.  HowardMorland (talk) 13:15, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:UNC Health Care

message: This article is about the heathcare system in general, but has a hospital infobox for their flagship hospital. The hospital infobox should be moved to UNC Medical Center or UNC Hospitals (unclear what the most appropriate name would be, since they both represent entities of UNC Health) and a more appropriate infobox should be added here.

Talk:Valle Crucis, North Carolina

message: When this article was originally written and later sectioned off, William West Skiles was the name given as the founder of  Valle Crucis and the Episcopal Church there. The article continued referring to Skiles and his accomplishments. Then in 2012 the name was changed from Skiles to Levi Ives but leaving everything else the same.
As it stands now, Ives spent the rest of his life in the area. He didn't. Following sentences refer to Skiles, not Ives and William W. Skiles is never reintroduced.  Furthermore, none of this information has source citations. Various sources have different accounts of the history. Web pages seem to copy/paste information that appears to be in conflict with memoirs of the principles and early 20th Century historians.  It will probably take some digging to sort it out.

Talk:W. Kerr Scott

message: I recall shaking hands with the Governor in 1952 at the age of 5. I looked him in the eye and he looked me in the eye but I do not recall what he said. However, Concern about GMO and nutrition continues to be a major part of my life as well as technologies which can help anyone get to the bottom of an issue and completely understand it. I am also deeply committed to equality among races perhaps because my own race has the benefit of 4,000 years of cultural evolution which is not always shared but withheld from those who might improve it. I am truly a better person and  fortunate that my uncle introduced me to Gov. Scott. 23:57, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Wake Forest, North Carolina

message: Whoever put The Wake Weekly newspaper in the "print only" section must favor the "online only" Destination Wake Forest. For that matter Destination is unlikely even the most popular online source of news in Wake Forest, which I'd guess is The Wake Forest Gazette. Since neither of those websites is registered with the press association, it's difficult to say which is more widely read. However, the statement that The Wake Weekly is print only is belied by the link to the newspaper's website. While primarily a print product, The Wake Weekly has a web page with a breaking news function and staff posts regular updates on Facebook. As for the dubious inclusion of the self-promoting Destination Wake Forest, which subsists almost entirely on submitted content and borrowed links and can hardly be considered a news source, I'll leave that up to the Wiki editors. 69.134.180.125 (talk) 04:33, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

message: The anonymous IP 216.77.41.249 has been used to vandalize or do disruptive edits to several articles lately. Therefore all current edits are suspect. I have reverted a recent edit in which the IP changed the number of rehabilitation beds under the WakeMed Raleigh Campus subsection from 68 to 78. If this edit is in good faith and can be confirmed as a legitimate correction, please feel free to put it back. But due to the nature of other current edits from this IP, I had to revert this out of due course. If the person using the IP 216.77.41.249 to edit this article is trying to do so in good faith, I strongly recommend registering for an account as IP addresses are often considered suspect, especially when used by multiple editors, some of whom only want to cause trouble. 23skidoo (talk) 02:10, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Diversity

message: It is inaccurate to say Williams High School "transitioned to a Grades 10-12 format" in the early 1970's.  The school had three grades at least from the time that Turrentine Junior High School opened as a Grade 7-9 school in 1962 until the end of the experiment of using the Jordan Sellars campus as a ninth grade school in the late 1970s.  It is also inaccurate to state that Jordan Sellars "closed its doors in 1970, at which time all of its students were integrated into the student body at Williams."  In 1970 Jordan Sellars remained open as a voc-tech campus for the city's high schools, and later became the Sellars Gunn Junior High School, housing all of the city's ninth graders.  Also, while Jordan Sellars' rising seniors were all transferred to Williams High School in 1970, and, with all the city's white seniors comprised the school's largest graduating class of 600, the rising juniors and sophomores were divided along the same district lines as Turrentine and Broadview Junior High Schools, between Williams and the newly opened Cummings High School, which contained only the 10th and 11th grades in its first year.  It was in this year of the completion of the racial integration of Burlington's high schools that Sports Illustrated assigned a free-lance writer, Pat Jordan, to cover the school's football team, a predominantly white team coached by Jerome Evans, who had been moved over from Jordan Sellars and became the subject of Jordan's book, "Black Coach".

message: Pinknews reports the victim as "murdered gay barman Jody Dobrowski" but this article goes to pains to claim that it was prejudice of the men assuming he was homosexual. Presumably the murderers were after anyone cottaging on the common - an act which would pretty much indicate the person was homosexual to some extent. However some apparent original research "He left friends at around 10.15pm and was a ten minute walk from Clapham Common." claims he was not near the common either - this was not reported in any of the newspapers. A link to the reports of the trial would be good too. I'll delete the original research if it can't be supported with evidence. 89.242.29.155 (talk) 13:40, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Joe Adamov

message: Joe was actually educated in England. He always spoke of England in a friendly manner. He also often made the point of informing the audience that he was present in England for the Queens Silver Jubilee, (something Joe seemed very proud of). He was towards the end of his life working on an Autobiography that his Mail Bag listeners were always telling him to write. Joe was not a Communist and never joined that Party in Russia, 'To be a communist you have to state that you do not believe in God', said Joe. Joe's wife was in the siege of Stalingrad and vividly recalled the hardships she endured there one time when Joe interviewed her. Joe never once spoke with animosity about the American people. He spoke highly of Americans as hard working patriotic people. Joe often had to respond to belligerent letter from listeners in the U.S. threatening to bomb the U.S.S.R. "who is threatening who?", Joe responded to one such letter; "you surround our country with missile bases, sail ships off our shores with missile on aimed at us, and you complain when we build rockets to defend ourselves". Joe was in fact Jewish, but was pretty restrained in his treatment of 'Jewish Jokes' (never referring to any) before the end of the U.S.S.R. But after the end of Communism Joe often told some pretty (you can only call offensive) Jewish Jokes on his programme, (some so bad the Station Producer often cut him off). Never a bitter man, Joe at times lamented his poor salary in Post U.S.S.R. Russia. "The T.V. Newsreader for a T.V. Station here in Moscow gets paid a thousand times more than I do" he once lamented. Joe also lamented the Health Care for the elderly like himself in Post U.S.S.R. Russia. Talking of a stay in a Hospital he said; "what was it like in the Hospital"? "well there was piss all over the the floor and the food disgusting, that was if you got any food". Asked where he lived in Moscow Joe said; "I live with my dear wife in a modest apartment here in Moscow. What do I do all day? Well I research material for my show and I listen to the Radio.
