replies: text: You won't find any because they aren't and never were.  Each site listed was totally independent from the Naval Base, which for most of the period during which the sites existed was a Royal Dockyard.  The confusion arises partly because people misunderstand that the Naval Base isn't part of the Royal Navy command structure (it's part of the Defence Equipment & Support organisation), even though significant parts of the RN Command were however accommodated with the Naval Base site --Ralabaf (talk) 16:17, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

message: In the lede, para 6, it says that '17,200 people' are employed at the base. But in the 'Functioning base' section, para 2, there are 17,300. 
Which is correct?
In the information for the picture showing the Alimirante Cochrane, someone has written in the edit page: "HMS Norfolk was given to Chilean Navy". "Given"?! Shurely shome mistake. "Sold" perhaps, "leased" - possibly, but "given"? I don't think so.  RASAM (talk) 21:51, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Multiple galleries? 

message: I suggest the inclusion of Detention Quarters (DQ's/Deeks). Discipline for many is at the heart of the Royal Navy and it is known that breeches of discipline were treated severely. 
It would be good to have the history of discipline and punishments within the naval base and on vessels attached to the base. 
it would be interesting to have a timeline of when DQ's were formally introduced into the naval base, what the took over from, what crimes and misdemeanors got you into DQ's, sentence limits, what DQ's looked like, when they wer built and when they closed as well as the current use of the facility. 217.144.243.100 (talk) 12:26, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Germans of Hungary

message: There is a merge tag at the beginning of the article, but there is no relevant section about it on this Talk page. In my opinion, the topic of the Danube Swabians article is neither a subset nor a superset of the topic of this article: (1) the Danube Swabians article does not only talk about Swabians who lives/lived in Hungary (or the Kingdom of Hungary), but also about Swabians of other countries; moreover, (2) not all Germans who lives/lived in Hungary are/were Swabians. For example, the Zipsers are Germans, but they are not Swabians. So, I do not think that a merge is appropriate. KœrteFa {ταλκ} 14:15, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

message: I believe Luis' family, meaning well, is adding the personal details of his childhood, like his his favorite song, and that he had a dog named Shrimp, (he did.) This is probably my fault for directing people to contribute to the Wikipedia article from the fernandezdelareguera.com web site. I have changed the wording on that site, explaining that Wikipedia isn't the place to post personal anecdotes, and I will give friends and family a forum to tell more personal stories in the bio section of fernandezdelareguera.com.

What I am actually doing is merging the material on heart defects (that is to say, pretty much the entire article), to the congenital heart defect article.

message: Does this mean that it would be a good idea to alter "congenital heart disease" when it occurs in articles to "congenital heart defect"?

Talk:Berlin Botanical Garden and Botanical Museum

message: I have tagged most sections with ; some sentences with ; some ambiguous statements (e.g., "today", "now") with  and similar; cleaned up and edited some prose; added  per MOS:FOREIGNITALIC, MOS:LANG, MOS:ROMANIZATION, and MOS:ACCESSIBILITY (proper nouns use lang template but do not italicize, unless in something that normally would be; not added to citation templates as it will mess up COINs data);  tags in the lead. The article needs cleanup; it appears to have been written from a source or sources, but it is not clear what those are. It appears to have been started as as a translation from the Czech article in 2006 with the following reference (uncited):
*Christiane Borgelt, Regina Jost, Florian Bolk: "Botanisches Museum & Gewächshäuser der Freien Universität Berlin",  Stadtwandel Verlag 2004, Berlin, ISBN 3-933123-10-5
Much information was added in March 2011 by IP 217.92.214.17 (special contributions) who seems to have added the majority of the sections with no references. If this information was a translation from another Wiki, that is not stated. Thus, I am not sure where the sources are in order to cite references which is why, unfortunately, I tagged. The other option would be to delete everything and start over with sources, or to try to find them if they are cited in another Wiki. The German article is rated FA, so they could be in that list; however, there are very few individual citations in that article as well.

Talk:William Baker

message: Let me be clear. The excessive and piped redlinks were a problem. I also changed the template at the bottom of the page to be more exact. The defense of a bad situation by Nihonjoe was bad enough, but the sloppy wholesale revert of my edit went too far. Redlinks exist for the same reason internal links do: to highlight something notible/relavent. However, they can also be overused just like internal links, especially on disambiguation pages. The criteria for redlinking, as I understand, is notiblity and a high probability of an article being created; "Why wait till it's orphaned?" and such. However, few if any of these links met the latter requirement. The assertion that these people are even notible is a dubious one. (The fact that most of them are dead decreases the likelihood of future articles as well.) Now, the piping while well intended, is against dab style policy. I get that the titles would be redundant, and therein lies another reason to remove the link. An existing article title is one thing, but these people are just sort of...there. Besides, on the off chance an article were created, I'm sure it would be linked back here anyway. Finally, the outright removal of a few WBs was simply because I not only doubted their notiblity, but their existence. As far as I am concerned, their listing here was either pointless or violated WP:VAIN. ACS (Wikipedian); Talk to the Ace. See what I've edited. 03:17, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: While I can understand removing the pipes (which I should have done when I reverted your edit), removing all the redlinks is absurd. There are several of those which will likely have articles at some point. WP:MOSDAB certainly allows for redlinks that are likely to have articles at some point. If they are important enough to be listed on this page at all, they are important enough to be redlinked if no article currently exists. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 10:05, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: And I insist that their very listing on this page is suspect. Still, this is disambiguation page. It doesn't have to limit itself to people with articles and it doesn't. The issue is whether or not these people without articles will get them. How, exactly, do you know they will? How's the Kansas politician going to get someone's attention within...say...the next year? A few redlinks in an article in fine. Every name on a dab page wikified when only four have articles is a cleanup issue. Defending such status is the absurdity. ACS (Wikipedian); Talk to the Ace. See what I've edited. 16:20, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, but you removed all of them, not leaving even those most likely to get articles. That's my main objection. You've gone from one extreme to the other. As I already indicated, the WP:MOSDAB allows for redlinks, and so I'm adding back the ones I think most likely to receive articles. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 09:03, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Airport Parkway (Ottawa)

message: Since when is the Airport Parkway a freeway? I've cycled on it numerous times as there is no prohibition against bicycles, which is sort of a fundamental requirement for it to be a freeway (or as the British more honestly call them, motorways). Nor is it an expressway as it is not a dual carriageway for much of its length. It might just be able to claim to be a "2 lane expressway", if such a concept exists.
