Talk:John Sparkes

message: The main text states that the show was only broadcast in Wales. This is incorrect (I watched the series in Australia).
:You mean the 1996 programme Barry Welsh is Coming? I assume that is meant to refer to the initial broadcast. But it's unusual for the ITV network only to broadcast something in Wales. BBC has it's own Welsh channel (BBC Wales) and does Channel 4 (S4C), but ITV Wales & West is just a franchise area. (From January 2014, the dual-region licence was split in two, with ITV Cymru Wales for Wales and ITV West Country covering the West of England). However, the Barry Welsh is Coming article does not say it was only broadcast in Wales, so I think that needs checking. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:21, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:John Weston Thomas

message: I don't feel this is suitable for the article itself, but I love this anecdote, which his wife told me a few years ago.
He wasn't very good at birthdays or anniversaries, and she said to him one year, why don't you ever give me an anniversary card?  So he gave her a card, still in its cellophane wrapper, and said "look, here's an anniversary card.  You can get it out every year on our anniversary and look at it!" And, she told me, that's just what she did.

Talk:Police Quest III: The Kindred

message: This article needs some love and care. I recently played through the game again so I will try and clean it up and expand it later. One question: While I think it's a good idea to add a note on playing it on modern computers, shouldn't it be in a different section than Development? Also I would recommend using Dosbox, the game works very well using it, and it's probably a more widely accepted solution. BeShaMo (talk) 12:56, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: What to do about this page?

message: I think the this article should have a reference to the composer of the music, Jan Hammer(of Miami Vice fame). The Police Quest III music was arguably the best soundtrack in the series. Especially if you happen to hear the soundtrack on the Roland MT-32 sound module. The entire soundtrack is available on the Quest Studios site(http://www.queststudios.com/quest/pq3digital/pq3cd.html).

Talk:Ashraf Marwan

message: shouldn't it state that he was a double agent? 69.155.134.121 20:45, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Double Agent

message: The article has it all wrong. The first sentence states that he worked for Egyptian intelligence. As others have pointed out, this is highly contested and seems more like a retroactive story invented by the Egyptians to salvage their honor. The undisputed fact is that he was working for Mossad and passed Israel invaluable information, including most famously an early and very accurate warning about the surprise Oct. 1973 war. This was first divulged by Eli Zeira (Israeli Army Intelligence Chief in the Oct. war) in the late 90s and has since been confirmed many times over. So if at all, the opening sentence should state that he worked for Mossad, and that the Egyptian intelligence claims he worked for them as well - although as pointed out towards the end of the article, in light of the information he passed on to Israel, this seems very unlikely.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.137.73.223 (talk) 15:14, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Religious tourism

message: The article at the moment is mainly about Pilgrimage, to which Spiritual tourism already redirects (rightly or wrongly: maybe it should point here instead). 'Religious tourism' could plainly also redirect there, but there seems to be an implicit distinction (which can perhaps be defended from reliable sources) between pilgrimage (travelling purely for religious reasons) and tourism (going to see the religious architecture, art, spectacle, or festival, even if one is not religious). If that is what the article is trying to do, all the pilgrimage aspects should be moved out of the article, or boldly placed in a section with a 'Main' link to 'Pilgrimage' and a brief explanation there that pilgrimage isn't tourism, though it shares some elements (travel, accommodation) with it, as its goal is entirely different. The lack of sources is, as always, a serious problem, as is the (resulting) lack of coherent narrative. The article needs a near-total rewrite. A related article, Christian tourism, suffers from the same lack of clarity: is pilgrimage tourism or not? These should probably be dealt with together.

Talk:No Country for Old Men

message: I dispute calling this film a "Western," similar to Cimarron, Unforgiven, or Dances With Wolves.
Westerns do not take place in contemporary times. Two of the above three films don't take place anywhere near the era in which they were produced. Only the very end of Cimarron takes place in the 1920s.  Most Westerns are set in the 19th Century or very shortly thereafter. No Country For Old Men takes place in 1980.

message: So, the line regarding the (presumably) US Army Military Police confiscating the film, IMO, needs a specific citation. That’s a rather bold claim, the Army confiscating something from then-civilian Huston, at a civilian establishment. It would also be an illegal action to use MPs; It was more likely CI or CID special agents. I don’t disbelieve the claim, but it is — as I mentioned — rather a bold one, and should be backed up with a specific citation. MWFwiki (talk) 12:00, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

I see your point about Mors Syphilitica being more Gothic music than Gothic Rock, however. I do disagree that Gothic music and Gothic rock are the same thing. I've been in 5 different bands over the years and feel that the more Christian Death style bands I've been involved with definately fit the rock mold, whereas the projects involving heavy usage of harpsichords, cellos and violin music didn't really sound very rock at all. But absolutely Gothic. We never really described those bands as Gothic rock. Remember, Wikipedia requires that all content be verifiable, not true. Cheers!

replies: text: We never really described those bands as Gothic rock. Correct, because they're Dark Wave bands and categorized as Ethereal or Neoclassical, not Goth.

Chicagoland, of course is not a state, just a loose metro area which happens to cross state lines, and universities run by other states, namely Indiana and Wisconsin could be used in the template box. These universities will have various cost and admission practices so the distinctions, at least in my view, are not as meaningful.
