Although the article might need some NPOV work, the politics behind this writing is lovely. --Yonghokim 23:58, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: I think there's reason for concern that the statements made about Susanne Brink in this article -- specifically the unsourced allegations, presented as fact, that "the accusations of abuse and racism in the movie to are false" {sic} and that Brink "has been neglecting and abusing her own daughter" -- might fall under Wikipedia's "Biographies of living persons" category (see Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons).  Accusations of child abuse are a very serious matter.  Can someone provide a specific source for these statements? Cactus Wren 11:31, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I don't understand why you would just go ahead and change KAD to SKIAD. First at all KAD is an abbreviation that is being used by many Korean adoptees. Secondly there are no adoptees from North Korea, which means that it's automatically clear who you are referring to in case of using KAD. I will change back the abbreviation to KAD.

thread_title:  References are needed and NPOV 

message: This article is strongly biased and to say the least, misleading. It needs an overhaul. E.g. the use of Korean Adoptee, should be changed into Korean International Adoptee etc.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kibeco (talk • contribs) 16:36, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Strongly Biased

message: So I took out the PoV and another person couldn't understand why I took out the PoV statements because they were referenced. It's because not all KADs feel the same way. I also put in a global perspective and it was taken out. I bothered to reference that. Sorry, but this is NOT just international adoptions. There are also domestic KADs too. KAD does NOT just refer to international adoptees. So stop effing up the article and putting back PoV statements and taking out that the Korean government has been encouraging domestic adoption. Stop navelgazing. Because not all KADs feel the same way. So that's why I took those opinions out. Because I don't feel that way. Because others don't 100% feel that way. And maybe it's not about whiteness. Because you're ignoring people like GOWE, who is a Korean adopted to Chinese parents. Stop making sweeping statements that are untrue.--Hitsuji Kinno (talk) 18:43, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

message: I think that the right margin time line diagram could be slightly misleading, and is a bit inconsistent with other geological era diagrams.
#. The picture at a quick glance tends to give the reader the impression that the proterozoic era started approximately 1100 Ma ago.
#. This time scale has the oldest times on top, and the more recent below.  Others are turned the other way around.
Unhappily, I'm not good at graphical illustrations, and do not know how to fix this myself. JoergenB (talk) 08:43, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  The time line illustration 

message: The Snowball Earth wikipedia page itself says "Proponents of the hypothesis argue that it best explains sedimentary deposits generally regarded as of glacial origin at tropical paleolatitudes, and other otherwise enigmatic features in the geological record."
But "whole-Earth glaciation would result in a biota with a noticeably different diversity and composition. This change in diversity and composition has not yet been observed– in fact, the organisms which should be most susceptible to climatic variation emerge unscathed from the snowball Earth."
I'm probably missing something here, but as far as the biota and wikipedia says, it was a geological hypothesis which doesn't pan out.FourLights (talk) 18:03, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

It seems a pretty major movement, compared to some of the minor movements that do have articles on them. I shall try and add some more info but it aint my area really. I dont know if this is the ideal title for it, alternatives

message: It is stated in your article that a Gray Whale calf drinks 130-150 gallons of milk per day. This is incorrect, they drink only 50 gallons of their mother's milk per day.2600:1702:4360:E540:6091:8424:868A:4E0E (talk) 06:55, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  incorrect info on baby Gray Whale 

message: I have visited Ojo de Liebre Lagoon & seen this. What the article does not indicate is that when the boats park themselves, some whales will head away, some will approach, & most will ignore the boats. Still, to have several gray whales approach your boat & surface close enough for you to pet them is pretty special, even with getting sprayed from a blow hole. I believe that the Mexican government puts limits on the number of boats that can go out, & requires the boat captains to have annual training.

The article also links to this NOAA page that I do not think has been used in the article as of this comment.

thread_title:  Misleading Title 

message: German paratroops were part of the Luftwaffe, not the Wehrmacht.  Also, the Flieger Corps used gliders to transport the troops.  That is how they made the attack on the Belgian Fort Eban Emael.  Gliders carrying the commandos with weapons, landing silently, penetrate area rapidly, land ready for combat with weapons, etc.  It was a combined operation, not just airborne troops dropping from the sky.  Hitler never allowed the information about the use of the gliders to be publicized because he wanted to keep it secret and give the impression that he military had some special awesome skill in overtaking Eban Emael, and others. I have several books on this and I will added material and fill-in where citations are needed.Malke 2010 (talk) 03:16, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Not 1st Battalion but 1st Coy was dropped at Narvik on 14 May 1940. The rest of 1st Battalion was still stuck in the Netherlands, whilst 1st Coy had been liberated from the Norvegian army and rebuilt to be dropped at Narvik. Correction as such been incorporated. 
The section on the Belgian and Dutch theatre has been modified considerably. It was poorly addressed. The division of theatres has been added and the old myth that the prime objective of the airlanding in Holland would have been to seize the Dutch crown and parliament. The operational around the Hague was self sustaining and had nothing to do with the other airlanding operation around Rotterdam.
