Talk:Eastern box turtle

message: In the description, there are constant references to "in some species".  This article is about a specific species of turtle...so why does this phrase appear?  It sounds as if the text was copied from a source discussing turtles in general, not this specific turtle.  Example: "In some species the front and back of the plastron are connected by flexible points or hinges."  This is actually a characteristic of this species. ++Arx Fortis 19:58, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

message: In the Distribution and habitat section, the source cited does not contain all of the given information. For example, the section states the elevation preferences of the eastern box turtle, but that information is not found in the source that was cited. I would also recommend using a source that has clearer ties to the scientific community. 
The Behavior and Diet and the In Captivity sections do not contain any citations at all. They are long sections that contain abundant information, so it is suspect that there are no sources given.

Even that said, Pocket ¢hange shows up with the proper 'cent' symbol; I don't know why it was changed from that.

All other "cheating" is noted in the general pricing games article. This is because, in terms of the history of a game, this was just one playing where the person screwed up how to play. It happens all the time (eg, in ten chances, check game, etc.). Just because this lady was mildly aided in this one playing because she didn't how to play (arguably. One might argue that she did it intentionally, but I don't see it that way). It's simply not notable unless you want to list every time a contestant misunderstood how to play a game.

This does not add up. It says there is eleven of each the C,A,and R. which is 33 then 2 more which is 35. but it only has 30 cards. What I am thinking is that there are 9 of each C A R and 3 CAR cards. I will email CBS studios and see what i can find out. Till Then, good day.

I'm not an expert on ketubot or anything, but if the Liberman Clause requires that the divorcing couple see a rabbinic court, how does that run afoul with the Establishment Clause?

message: This entry is biased to the extent that it cannot be viewed as anything but a piece of political propaganda. ZSMS and LDS never pursued genuinely liberal policies. This fact is easy to demonstrate, anti-liberal policies of the LDS have been observed and documented by Slovenian and international experts. When the LDS was in power, it indulged in censorship of the media, state intervention in the economy, it supported massive redistribution, kept increasing personal income taxes (e.g. the highest marginal tax rate on labor income reached 70 percent during the LDS rule) and prevented the central bank from operating independently.
In addition, Tone Rop and Janez Drnovšek are not liberal leaders. The above listed anti-liberal were pursued under their leadership. It would be honest to call those policies socialist or even statist. I suggest that this entry be edited by removing the paragraphs From ZSMS-Liberal Party to Liberal Democracy of Slovenia and From Slovenian Democratic League to Democratic Party.
