Talk:Dentin hypersensitivity

message: Homeopathy is *not* a treatment, whatever the source may say. WP:FRINGE/PS applies. Compare with ArbCom on Pseudoscience. --2A02:8070:8883:CA00:34B7:290F:2E09:1556 (talk) 20:12, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Can't see where homeopathy is discussed. And depends what you mean by treatment. Regardless of proven efficacy or lack thereof, if enouh sources mention that some people choose to treat a condition in a certain way, then it is notable to be discussed in the encyclopedia entry. Matthew Ferguson (talk) 21:48, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It was listed as a "treatment" in the infobox, even listing the "substance" as "Propolis". The source lists "homeopathy" under "CLASSIFICATION OF DESENSITIZING AGENTS: II. On the basis of mechanism of action." But there's no further reference or discussion (just like there isn't any in the infobox). It just mentions two words. That's way too weak to meet wiki standards for medical topics. And further, it's well established scientific consensus that H. is placebo. A remedy 'not containing' "Propolis" is not a "desensitizing agent" and doesn't have a 'mechanism of action' as such. There's really no need to flesh out pseudoscientific "treatments" based on two words in a source, so the omission seems fine by me. --2A02:8070:8883:CA00:1974:D126:2D47:F7FF (talk) 03:04, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

message: It might be more pertinent to modify homosexuality as sexual orientation. Amin had many concubines , he also had sexual relations with them. In addition to homosexuality, bisexuality is also a relatively common sexual orientation. Nor can we directly say that he is homosexual or gay just because he had a love and sexual relationship with an eunuch. In terms of calling him homosexuality or bisexuality, maybe it would be more appropriate to change the title to sexual orientation? 清风与明月 (talk) 09:28, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Simon Stiles

message: If the flashback scenes in "The Friday Night Slaughter" are set in 1999, does that mean that Simon actually joined Studio 60... in 1999 rather than 2001 as stated in the body of this article? Or is the flashback unreliable as a source of "canonical" material as Matt's state of altered consciousness has conflated real and unreal, and possibly even the chronology of events? AndreasKQ 00:56, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, in addition to the problem about the reliability of the flashback, in "Friday Night Slaughter" he was just there for an audition, so it's not (yet) clear that he joined in 1999.

message: I'm concerned about the number of anonymous IP editors who are contributing to this article.

thread_title:  Anonymous editors 

message: Coming here as a result of WP:3O. The information Kenilworth Terrace has inserted about the school's operations as a subsidiary of a textbook company are properly sourced and properly described. The anon has failed to provide any sources to the contrary and so I must support Kenilworth Terrace's position. If the anon wishes to contest the information in any useful sense, a source must be provided that shows something to the contrary. Even then, the appropriate answer would be to add to Kenilworth Terrace's edit, not to erase it. Where reliable sources conflict with one another, we summarize that conflict within the article (source A says X, but source B says Y). Wikipedia functions on a standard of verifiability, not truth, so please keep that in mind: we aren't here to pass judgment on the truth or falseness of what exists in a reliable source, but rather to faithfully summarize it, as long as it complies with our other core policies here.—e. ripley\talk 16:50, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Federal Correctional Institution, Otisville

message: I'll check with my father if this is otisville FCI REX_84 concentration camp designation is true.  'No' doesn't neccesarily mean 'no' though.  People are trained to lie to protect themselves due to the obligations of their security clearance - or else they could get 20 years in prison.  My father has a top-secret clearance and worked at otisville FCI between 1980 and 1985, so he will probably know, but may lie or refuse to say. I did already cause to much of a ruckus on publishing some of his minor leaks on his time on the USS greenfish (he was an electrician and some of the greenfish stuff has been declassified).  Also, people with security clearances are often lied too far more often than common citizens, when approaching one's 'need-to-know' grey-area.--GreatInca 01:03, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Category talk:Clwyd geography stubs

message: Something really needs to be done about including the 'Conwy-geo-stub' here. The eastern part of Conwy county borough was indeed in the old Clwyd (and the traditional Denbighshire before that), but well over half of the county borough lay in former Gwynedd (Caernarfonshire before that). Llanfairfechan now comes up as a 'Clwyd geo stub' in the categories bar. Ludicrous! Like a number of other places included here it is not and never has been a part of Clwyd (or Denbighshire). Could somebody please sort this out? It would be better to remove the Conwy stub from here completely if that's not possible.

Talk:Dyke and the Blazers

message: This is the new link for the Hall of Fame reference: http://www.azmusichalloffame.org/inductees/dyke-and-the-blazers/
I don't feel confident to fix anything beyond text so I'm not changing it myself.
While I'm here, a lot of people are going to want a section on how the displaced snare drum break near the end of Funky Broadway Pt. 1 is nearly identical to James Brown's Cold Sweat, which led to I Got the Feeling and Mother Popcorn - all of which are highly relevant to hip-hop. Obviously, Dyke preceded James Brown in using the displaced snare, and James Brown was constantly quoting Funky Broadway in other songs, covered it himself later, and anecdotally said Dyke was the only guy who scared him - or some such statement of respect. Again, I'm not competent to add anything definitive, but these are the areas that could greatly benefit Wikipedia as this band is unusually important in music history.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kevintimba (talk • contribs) 19:48, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

message: According to this (and even this), there is no mention that all three were employees. In fact, it directly disputes what the Wikipedia article claims by saying there was only one former employee, but they stabbed three (or four) other employees. Also, I cannot find a reputable reference saying that the Prix closure was related to the murders, though that certainly may be the case. It still is conjecture without a statement of proof.

I've hunted around for sources, but most of them seem to be directly linked to the Vols which pretty much clobbers the "unbiased" aspect.
