Talk:Another Stakeout

message: This article had quite a bit of defacement on it that was unfortunately marked as "citation needed" rather than being removed. For example, it said that Joel Siegel named it the "Most Important movie of the 1990s!" and that it was a "cult film" with a tattooed fan club known as "Stalkies". LOL.
In any event, a simple Google search indicates that there is a group of troublemakers on the Internet going around editing film sites or discussion boards trying to fraudulently make it seem as though the film has cult status. Take a look at the blog post http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2008/04/lets_make_another_stakeout_a_c.php
It states:
"Come join us and help us turn this movie into a giant cult hit for absolutely no good reason. Register and vote 10/10 for the movie. Get into heated trivia arguments about the movie. Quote lines, question other Stakeout heads' commitment to the movie. Let's forward this e-mail and flood the site to the point where there are Another Stakeout festivals and conventions and midnight showings with people in costume saying lines along with the movie ala Rocky Horror Pic Show. And remember, we are Another Stakeout fans. Not Stakeout fans. The first one was pretty good but like the Godfather 2 (or is the Godfather 2 like Another Stakeout?) director John Badham got it right the second time around. AS 2 forever!!".
I doubt anyone will ever read this page, but I put this here in case some sucker comes along and tries to revert it.

Talk:People (disambiguation)

message: Several recent edits (   ) have concerned styling of the lede of this of this disambiguation page.
Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Disambiguation_pages#Linking_to_a_primary_topic indicates that if there is a primary topic for a disambiguated term, the first line of the article should briefly direct users to that primary topic page, before introducing a disambiguating list. I am the one who first introduced the "People is the plural of person" phrasing as the primary-topic line (here), as I am elsewhere advocating that People should be a simple redirect to Person, or preferably that this dab page should be moved to that title, and then link to Person as the primary topic.
I introduced that change at the same time as redirecting People to here. However, that redirect has since been reverted, and for the time being the article at People is about "coherent social or ethnic groups" or the like. Thus at present, that is the primary topic for the term "People" on Wikipedia, and the lede of this article should read as in this revision. It is ironic that people are reverting my reversion of a change I myself originally instantiated; I am simply undoing myself here for consistency with having been undone elsewhere. I would like very much for the first line of this article to read "People is the plural of person" and be done with it, but for the time people that is not Wikipedia's primary topic for the term "People", and this dab page should reflect that until the situation changed. --Pfhorrest (talk) 09:15, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not lead that concerned me.  I edited so that both "People, the plural of "person" and "a People, a coherent social group" be be included and not conflated, but clearly separated.  That's all I care about.

Talk:Itzhak Katzenelson

message: I've noted that this article in its present form was translated from the German Wikipedia version. As the English, German, and French articles are quite brief (and two other language versions are stubs), I'm translating the more extensive Hebrew article into English. I'll take care to retain content from the first English version here, and will support my translation with library research (referencing the Encyclopaedia Judaica and Encyclopaedia of the Holocaust). 
Also, I advocate Yiddish:English transcription (e.g. of a poem's title) per YIVO, rather than German orthography as in the present article. Deborahjay 04:34, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article to be translated (Hebrew:English) 

message: The article's subject's name is spelled Itzhak Katzenelson in two major English-language reference works: 
"Encyclopaedia Judaica" (Jerusalem: Keter Publishing, 1972)
"Encyclopaedia of the Holocaust" (New York: MacMillan, 1990), a tandem edition to the Hebrew "Ha-entsiklopedia shel ha-Shoah", ed. Israel Gutman, published by Yad Vashem that same year.
The present spelling of the article's name appears incorrect to me; what is its basis? 
I suggest changing it (as above) and creating the necessary redirects from variant spellings. Deborahjay

replies: text: I oppose that. It seems pretty clear that the convention in literature on the subject is to use primarily the handle for identification, and Wikipedia should do the same (see also Wikipedia:Use common names). Most of the sources don't even mention a real name, and even the one you've cited apparently takes 116 pages to get around to it, while also identifying other people by handles instead of real names. --Michael Snow 16:25, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It takes 116 pages because the story is told chronologically, from the very start of Apro's career in the police force. --Thedangerouskitchen 14:55, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

If they aren't closely related, I suggest linking to makam (Assyrian) here and on the other pages (makam, maqam) and putting the relevant information there. If they are similar to the Turkish ones, then there should be information added on that page (i.e. the opening sentence should be "...in Turkish and Assyrian music..." and usages which differ should be explained in the course of the page.

Talk:Smashed potatoes

message: Smashed potatoes are different from mashed potatoes.  I'd be fine with adding a bit about them in the mashed potatoes article, but the smashed potatoes article should not be a simple redirect to mashed potatoes, because they are separate dishes.
:OK. I've added a bit about them in mashed potato. However, they are definitely NOT different dishes, and it is certainly not correct to claim that "Unlike mashed potatoes, the boiled potatoes are not puréed, but slightly crushed (to yield) a rustic, chunky texture".  That supposes that mashed potato is ONLY pureed, and that is not the case. Mashed potato has ranged from chunky to smooth for centuries depending on the cooks, quite a bit longer than those things called blenders which some people use to puree (destroy?) many fruits and vegetables.

Talk:Gallen Lo

message: As well-intentioned as it may be, this article needs some cleanup specifically in the area of grammar. The article has the urge to shift back and forth from present to past tense for no particular reason. In addition, the original writer of this article (with all due respect to him/her) does not seem to grasp the English language properly, such as the word "whose", instead of "who", "enter" instead of "entered", and but not limited to, "had no any achievement" instead of "achieved little success", or "unsuccessfully" etc.
I've also noticed that there is a lack of sources supporting the original article writer(s) claim that Gallen Lo's popularity was "poorer and poorer". AWDRacer 05:27, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Sport in China

message: I see this was recently changed into a disam page, whilst this is not a problem for many of the links to this page which seem to be about recent athletes who can be linked to their correct country / part of China, there are a few problem links. 
For example:
*People's Republic of China - "China has one of the oldest sporting cultures in the world, spanning the course of several millennia"
*Football in China -  Football has been one of the most well supported sports in China ever since it was introduced in the early 1900s.
These two link to this page but they cant really be redirected to any of the articles currently on the list. As there is a general article at China i would of thought some general article on sports in china (even if it doesnt have this main article spot) would of been useful. There are probably more examples than just the two mentioned. BritishWatcher (talk) 14:21, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ending 

message: I'm glad they spelled the last name here correctly, as it's usually spelled as Raegan. In the episode, they even went so far as to have the screeching ex-wife spell it out as R-a-i-g-a-n. That may seem odd, but at the time Ronald Reagan was the president of the actor's union, and they probably wanted to make it clear they weren't referring to him. (BTW, the ex-wife is the real life mother of Sean Penn.) 
But the ending is not what it appears to be. I think. Someone needs to find a RS on this point, assuming there is one. Here's the thing. Everyone assumes that it's just as it appears, that the actor (Raigan) is having a nervous breakdown and therefore latches onto his fictional alter ego Arthur Curtis, and in desperation to "save" himself, becomes the fictional character and imagines he is living that life. But there is a huge problem with that. At the end, Serling writes that it is Curtis, not Raigan, who is escaping. That would have to mean that what really happened is that the fictional character crossed over into our real world, and just barely managed to escape back to his reality. Right? Because if it is in fact Raigan who is escaping, then the ending monologue  should have Raigan's name instead of Curis' name. Right? (Or could it be that Serling goofed and wrote the wrong character's name in the ending monologue?) So which is it?  __64.82.141.78 (talk) 02:24, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

message: The article says, "The United States was also offered two additional seats, but due to political problems (regarding which two of the 48 states would be represented), it was never acted upon." Without citing to a page number, this is sourced to Ulam's "Stalin: The Man and His Era."  At pages 606-607, the book says that after Stalin gained his extra seats, he offered, "...if the senators still raised difficulties for his American friend, he would be happy for the United States to have three seats, too."  Nothing in that part of the book indicates the US actually was offered additional seats, let alone that the deal fell apart because the US could not assign its extra seats.
