North Philadelphia, depending on how it is defined, has roughly 200,000 people, is around 65% African-American, 30% Hispanic (mostly Puerto Rican and Dominican American), 15% Asian (mostly Korean, Chinese, and Vietnamese) mainly in the area of Olney, and 5% non-Hispanic white.something doesn't add up here -- 65 + 30 + 15 + 5 = 115.  I know that Hispanic can conclude people of any race, according to the census bureau's definitions -- but I find it hard to believe that half the Hispanic people in North Philly are also African-American or Asian.

replies: text: You basically have to discount the Hispanic number from the total. Assuming that the numbers are census numbers, the Hispanic percentage is not included in the total percentage, but is a percentage separate form the total, it's weird but take a look at an article on a small town say like Royersford, Pennsylvania, and look under the demographics section, and you'll see what i am talking about. Basically the sentence needs to be reworded somehow, so it doesn't look like the Hispanic percentage is included in the total racial percentage breakdown. --Boothy443 |  trácht ar 06:18, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Category talk:Music genre articles by quality

message: Projects for grading the quality of articles strike me as a good idea, so I like your music genre article project. However, I think you need to take into account of the fact that some articles cover larger genres or more general categories than others. Specifically, I'm thinking of your grading Illbient as "Start-Class" articles. Keep in mind that "Illbient" and other microgenres are pretty narrow musical pigeonholes that only describe the work of a very few artists, and the genre names themselves may only be in limited use. That would imply that an extensive article on that genre simply isn't called for - the article may be short, but the subject isn't appropriate for an extensive discussion. Peter G Werner 23:38, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: yup, that's something that's been mentioned, but illbient only has a brief description of it's sound, no history of the term or style, no references, no images, only one link and no samples, so i'd definitly say it has room for improvement. --MilkMiruku 00:26, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I have completed the B class checklist and feel that this article could be improved by addressing the following issues:
* Referencing: each paragraph or block of information requires a source for verification purposes, this can be achieved by including in-line citations;
* Coverage: the article currently has a unit history section, however, there is nothing in it. If this could be completed, it would serve to balance the article and provide a comprehensive coverage of the topic;
* Supporting materials: a photograph would serve to illustrate the article more, although the infobox by itself is fine for a B class.

Talk:Those Who Must Be Kept

message: "We see, then, that Enkil is not merely Akasha's guardian and consort, but that he maintains his own will and emotions, including jealousy" I read the Queen of the Damned novel again during school today and I suddenly realized that this statement may not be entirely true. Now quoting Akasha in the chapter Lestat: In the Arms of the Goddess
"It was meant, what happened," she answered finally. "That I should pass those years growing ever more
strong. Growing so strong finally that no one ... no one can be my equal." She stopped. Just for a moment
her conviction seemed to waver. But then she grew confident again. "He was but an instrument in the end,
my poor beloved King, my companion in agony. His mind was gone, yes. And I did not destroy him, not
really. I took into myself what was left of him. And at times I had been as empty, as silent, as devoid of the
will even to dream as he was. Only for him there was no returning. He had seen his last visions. He was of
no use anymore. He has died a god's death because it only made me stronger. And it was all meant, my
prince. All meant from start to finish."
Now this got me thinking: his mind was gone and he was devoid of the will to dream. Would this not imply that Enkil had become braindead after 6000 years of sleep? That he did not even stir or rise to defend himself from Akasha's drinking of him or when she rose. Further, "what was left of him" which also got me puzzled. So, wouldn't it be more accurate to say that recently Enkil stopped showing any signs of life or a will of his own and emotions since he was implied by Akasha to be braindead?--Hackeru (talk) 13:57, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
