Talk:Ruben Reyes

message: I contributed to the expansion of this auto since I found reliable and verifiable links in the Philippine daily Inquirer, etc. about his other details. I also note that before his appointment the mystic fire burned his main office which never ever happened since the supreme court and court appeals and comelec were created, the latter 2 also were burned this year on jan 12 and march 12 where both logos and seals were burned half and 3/4 while the CA building where the 4th floor was burned had a birthday party for about 3 justices which include Justice Bienvenido Reyes, and they narrowly escaped death.
I found this mystifying related to the CA Cebu investigation on corruption.

Talk:GURPS Reign of Steel

message: On February 17 2006 and again on August 14 2007 an anonymous editor asserted that the information about the Tranquility AI is a spoiler that needs to be kept away from players, having some form of significance greater than any of the other spoiler-type information about the various Zoneminds that's in here. I own a copy of the sourcebook, I've re-read the Tranquility bits each time this came up, and it just isn't so. Tranquility's survival is described in a sidebar on page 48, presented as a factual description just like the information about the various Zoneminds is presented. There's further material on pages 124-126 providing suggestions for potential campaigns that could be based around Tranquility, but none of that material is covered in this article (IMO it would be excessive detail if it were). Please discuss the issue here next time before removing that material again. Bryan Derksen 08:23, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Anglican Papalism

message: It's got to be said, this is a poor article. It needs thorough revising. It contains no citations and is almost entirely unreferenced. It blurs the differences between Anglo Catholicism and it subject. It seems unable to separate positive and negative POV and is at times clearly polemical. It makes inaccurate generalisations. 
Worst of all, this article provides no useful information to anyone not already versed in the jargon. I have tried to improve it a bit, but it needs so much work! -- SECisek 08:00, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Slavery in India

message: I saw a refbomb about an incident affecting Puran Mal's family being enslaved; there were no less than 40 references where most seemed to be links to google books searches for "puran mal castration." I used the wikiblame tool to track it down to User:Femaseer, who seems to be a sockpuppet account. The revision I reverted was https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Slavery_in_India&diff=prev&oldid=1196329034
It seemed a strange thing for the sockpuppet to focus on, and the google books sources seemed hit-or-miss as to whether they actually supported the very specific incident, so I figured I would revert the entire paragraph about Puran Mal instead of trying to wade into what might have been a politically motivated edit.
I mention this on the talk page because I'm a new editor; I'm not trying to be intentionally destructive, and if this was not the right thing to do I would greatly appreciate feedback! Patrickpowns (talk) 07:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Thirdly, Russian CHRISTIAN ORTHODOX soldiers made a toilet out of the "christian church" Tkhabaerdi (explain me why they didn't make a public toilet in Gori churches which were under their occupation, on the contrary Russians were coming to Georgian churches to pray)? Thirdly, according to Ingush history, which was verbally passed over dozens of centuries the christians built their sculptures in the walls of the Ingush temple (not necessarily pagan).

thread_title: Status/class

message: Submitted for consideration...
As a point of reference, rusa is an Indonesian word for deer, as are menjangan and kijang, so the name "Rusa Deer" is both redundant and non-specific as there are other types of deer/ungulates in the region.  Rusa is apparently used in other languages of SE Asia, and even India (along with Sumbar), and also means deer.
Further, some references show that this animal is called menjangan in Indonesian, which is a word that is distinct from, and less commonly used than, rusa and kijang.
Some resources call this animal the "Timor(ese) Deer" and, given the scientific name (Cervis timorensis) this might be a more appropriate main appellation for the animal.
http://www.itis.gov/servlet/SingleRpt/SingleRpt?search_topic=TSN&search_value=625050 = Timor Deer, Red Deer, wapiti
http://www.animalpicturesarchive.com/view.php?tid=2&did=29372 = Timor Deer
There is also the possibility that Sunda Sambar is for a different species of deer, within  the genus Cervis, but online sources don't seem to be consistent about this animal's name.
http://www.animalpicturesarchive.com/list.php?qry=sambar%20deer
According to this website, the Red Deer is C. elaphus and the Sambar is C. unicolor.

thread_title:  The deer's name 

message: In today's copyedit I removed the following text:
:"There are two subspecies of the Rusa; the more common and larger Javan Rusa, a large stag (male deer) weighing in at around 136 kg with does(females) being much smaller tipping the scales at around 96 kg. The second species of Rusa deer is the less common and slightly smaller Mollucan Rusa which on average are 20 kg lighter than their Javan cousins."
because it's unsourced and MSW3 lists 7 subspecies. However, the descriptions seem useful, so I'm putting it here in case anyone wants to make use of it when expanding the article. --Stfg (talk) 21:29, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Refund theft

message: Unfortunately retailers not only encourage Refund theft but I believe actually helped create the crime.
Due to intense competition between supermarkets and discount department store chains, no single group was willing to take the ultimate step and say "no docket, no refunds.” 
Everyone is frightened of losing market share that they ended up creating the perfect situation for the Fraudulent Refund. Customers can very easily steal an item and then return it and obtain 100 per cent refund. What a greet racket. Some discount department stores even have their returns desk located inside the store – customers can simply select an item off the shelf, take it to the returns counter and get paid to leave it there!

However, in such source it is claimed that in 1881 Prince George of Wales  sighted a phantom ship while travelling on the Inconstant in the Pacific Ocean (so much less defined location) and on the 11th of June, while here is reported as the 11th of July.

message: I've found some ambiguity in the Earl of Clanwilliam's reported illness. We say here he got sick in Hong Kong and then was replaced by Rear Admiral Sullivan on 6 December 1881. According to contemporary sources, Clanwilliam became sick in Sydney in July 1881, but recovered. Sullivan was announced as his replacement on 6 December but the squadron was most likely at Shanghai at the time. The squadron didn't reach Hong Kong until late December and it wasn't until 3 February 1882 that he joined the squadron in Hong Kong. Whether Clanwilliam suffered a further bout of illness at Hong Kong is unclear but by then the decision had already been taken to replace him. From Hill To Shore (talk) 01:42, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
