Talk:Jefferson High School (Iowa)

message: I removed the following text which seems at best more about a non-notable person than about the school, and at worst of suspect accuracy.  Essentially this is a revert to the 3 Sept 2006 version which had more informatino about the school.
The 2008 Decathlon team placed 3rd in Div. 2 and 14th overall.  Jefferson used to be Div. 1 and routinely placed in the top ten overall, often with significantly higher scores.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.19.197.30 (talk) 02:06, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

message: This is an encyclopedia article. It is not social media. It is not for the district, or its students. Encyclopedia articles do not feature information on the subject of the article, per se.

Talk:Pigsticking

message: Could please somebody correct the reference to Hungary on this page. Pig-sticking aka hog-hunting is or used to be a sport of maharajahs, it is obviously not practiced in present-day Hungary, there are no three Hungarians in one million who know the meaning of this English word, there is no Hungarian word for it. The quotation is actually a bad translation, I have checked the Hungarian version of the homepage. The author of the given homepage wanted to write pigslaughter or pig-killing (the event of butchering a pig at a farm for consuming the meat and also other parts of the animal - which prior to new, animal-rights-ridden EU-regulations used to be a feast in rural Hungary and other parts of Europe). The whole misunderstanding may be due to the fact that Országh László's Hungarian-English Dictionary (Budapest, 1985) says: "disznóölés - pigkilling or pigsticking). This is of course false, but the author has been dead for 30 years and the dictionary was printed in half a million copies :)
This is pigslaughter: http://www.elelmezesvezetok.hu/szamok/04/01/141.jpg

Talk:Snake Alley (Burlington, Iowa)

message: Out of curiosity, I just used Google Maps to compute the sinuosity of Snake Alley.  I was surprised to get a sinuosity of 1.61 (measuring from the center point of each end of the brick-paved "snake".  I would have obtained a smaller value had I measured from the center-points of the intersections at each end.  I don't know the end points used in the Travel Channel's value for San Francisco's Vermont Street of 1.56 cited in that article, so this may not be comparable, but it makes it clear, Snake Alley holds its own as a very crooked street.  This result shouldn't go in the article because it counts as original research, but those interested in numerical comparison of crooked streets ought to dig deeper into this. Douglas W.

message: btw, I just looked at the maps. All the blocks in your map seem to be on the fence or where settlements are. Obvious why they are there. I think the whole article is un-encyclopedic especially if expanded in the political fashion way.

thread_title: un-encyclopedic

message: This entry is premised on the existence of some Israeli "program of closure", and under that umbrella it juxtaposes so many details about Israeli checkpoints, the West Bank barrier, and other Israeli restrictions that are or can be covered at those entries and at others like Human rights in Israel. Furthermore, virtually every reference is to a solitary report by the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, outside of which I have not found evidence for this novel grouping. Unless someone can produce evidence this idea is acknowledged by Israel or some other body, and then make the case for why it should be covered seperately, this should be merged into the above-mentioned articles.

Talk:Iron Grip Barbell Company

message: This article looks like it could be turned into something decent. From a quick glance at their webpage, they have 24 patents and dealers in what appears to be pretty much every industrialized country in the world. If they are, as they claim to be, "the largest manufacturer of commercial free weight equipment in the world", they absolutely deserve to be here. Seems more like a case of a newbie not knowing proper Wikipedia protocol than somebody messing with the encyclopedia. Stilgar135 19:46, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Hi! I am new to Wikipedia, and Iron Grip Barbell Company is my father's company. Although I was not the one who originally started the article, I have been fixing and cleaning up the article. I have been adding citations, more external links, adding links in related articles, etc. Because I am new, I have been making a number of smaller edits instead of larger ones, and due to this (in my best guess) a bot has reverted my edits. I have re-added the edits, but if the bot does change my edits again, I ask for help on how to stop the bots if it does happen again, most likely from the admin of the bot or from an experienced editer. Thank you!
: Hi. Here's some reading that may help you: Welcome entry on your talk page, Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Editing with a conflict of interest (relevant to editing an article about a company you are involved with), Wikipedia:Introduction. The bot may have reverted your edits because you added an email address to the article (but that's just a guess). Email addresses don't belong in articles. Also, adding links to this article like Dumbell and Barbell is not really appropriate as this article is not closely related to them. As an example, it would be appropriate for Dumbell and Barbell to link to each other in their "See also" sections, as they are related pieces of equipment. However an article about a company that produces this equipment is not an appropriate link, as it is about a company, and so is on a completely different topic (even if that company produces dumbells and barbells). There's also a strong conflict of interest issue there... I'm not sure what you can do (if anything) about this article being linkless. I hope this helps. --David Scarlett(Talk) 04:31, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
