Talk:1904–1905 Welsh revival

message: I came across this article whilst disambiguating links. 
I hate to do this to a nice long informative article on an important topic, but there's a bunch of stuff that is very non-neutral point of view ("no serious divine nature"; "God did work in.."). And "the wind behind his preaching": is this metaphorical, literal (wind whipping at him as he speaks?), a quote from him or an observer, or what? 
There's also some terms which are unexplained: precisely what the article means by blessing, for example! The word has different meanings and connotations across different cultures. So it would probably be an idea to provide an explanation or a link for people of other (or no) religions. 
The article also has quite a bit of first-person writing: ("we must see"; "I have painted") and an occasional typo. I can do those with reasonable confidence, and might have a go later. 
I can have a go at more extensive NPOV'ing if someone wants, but I have no idea what to do with sentences such as,
"Despite already having been ordained as a Minister it is worth noting that upon till this weekend in November 1904 Nantlais Williams himself was not a Christian, he came to conviction on the Saturday night prior to Joseph Jenkins’ arrival." So it would probably be better if someone more familiar with the details did it.

thread_title: Can this be NPOV'd a bit?

message: Argh, forgot my original question! I am disambiguating mentions of Welsh (which is a disambig page). At the top of the article is  
"the blessing amongst [Welsh] students during the 1970s": is this Welsh people in Welsh colleges; Welsh people elsewhere; or other people in Welsh colleges? I only ask because I am trying to decide between the pages Welsh people and Wales. I'm pointing it at Wales for now, but someone might want to alter it.--Telsa 07:45, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Howard Goodall

message: Was that Howard Goodall singing in 'The Blackadder' and 'Blackadder Back and Forth'?
Blackadder series one was sung by the baritone Simon Carrington, series two by the counter-tenor Jeremy Jackman (both members of The Kings' Singers), series 3 Alyson Limerick, Lyn Kieran and Ritchie Pitts. Series four, Blackadder Goes Forth, was played by the band of the 3rd Royal Anglian regiment in Colchester. The film Blackadder Back & Forth was sung by bass Giles Underwood.

message: Adj. form may be Dorian (dor'-ee-un). kwami 08:07, 2005 Jun 19 (UTC)
Confirmed. Doridian might be expected from the Greek root Δωριδ-, but there was a specific Greek adjective Δωριος, and the established English adjective is 'Dorian' (cf. Liddell & Scott). The two forms are reflected in the two Italian forms, Dori and Doride. kwami 11:55, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Exuviae

message: Since this is likely to crop up again, I'll summarize what the actual situation is with the term. Technically - and I mean, truly technically - the only legitimate form of the term is "exuviae", which, in both its literal meaning and in how it should be treated linguistically, is nearly the same as "clothes" or "clothing". That is, the term is intrinsically a plural, and there is no actual singular form that can be derived from it - you don't look at someone's shirt and call it "a cloth": it's a part of their clothing. So, a shed spider skin should technically be referred to as "the exuviae of a spider" and not "a spider exuvia" - maybe "a spider's exuviae" would work. But, virtually no one in this day and age still clings to the technically-correct usage - for better of worse, exuvia and exuvium have both come into usage. That being said, of the two, exuvia is the one that comes closest to being appropriate - i.e., if the word existed, its plural would indeed be exuviae. So, rather than annoy everyone by changing the article to "exuviae", I'll just leave this note here, so everyone can marvel at how the English language keeps evolving. Peace, Dyanega (talk) 18:38, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  singular vs. plural, etc. 

message: I'm going to place an image in the gallery on this page. It's a photo of a cicada exuvia, and it clearly shows the eye coverings, coverings for the wings, coverings for the extremities; it also clearly show setae on the legs and the face. Are these features really considered part of an exoskeleton? I think not, but I may be wrong. We need an entolmolgist or someone very knowlegeable to clarify what structures are contained in exuviae.Nickrz (talk) 18:37, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Exoskeleton 

message: The etymology section of the article is currently titled "confusing etymology", and it lives up to its name by conducting an argument with itself:
:The Latin word exuviae, meaning "that which is stripped from a body", is found only in the plural. Exuvia is a derived singular usage that is becoming more common, but in fact this is incorrect. Exuvia is the plural of Exuvium, which already can be found in the work of Propertius.Woordenboek Latijn-Nederlands, by Muller & Renkema, 6th edition 1951
So. . . is it singular "exuvia" , plural "exuviae"? Or singular "exuvium", plural "exuvia"? Both? Something else? My Latin scholarship ends at being able to identify the first pair as a feminine noun and the second pair as neuter. I see online Latin dictionaries supporting both the first and the second.
Let's discuss it. But here's the thing: let's discuss it here, on the talk page, instead of editing the article to sound like dialog from Sybil. TypoBoy (talk) 00:42, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

Talk:League of Women Voters

message: Do you have a credible source saying the LWV is a "women's rights organization"?  
From my personal experience with the LWV, I know they accept male members and put them to work in registering people to vote, observing public meetings of governmental bodies, and other non-partisan political activities.  Their membership is mostly but far from exclusively female.  
Their issues include women's rights, but that's far from their exclusive focus.  They were founded as a successor to the National American Woman Suffrage Association after women got the right to vote, but their focus today (and probably their membership) is much broader than before female suffrage in the US.  If you think this article should say something different, please provide a credible source.  
Accordingly, I'm reverting your change.  Thanks. DavidMCEddy (talk) 12:22, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: LWV originated as part of the women's rights movement and still works for women's rights, although the article should rightly point out their broad current focus. The main problem is not mentioning women's rights anywhere in the first section of the lead, while mentioning other issues such as gun control. The women's rights movement in the United States has always been liberal feminist and accepted male members. There is no contradiction in working for women's rights and accepting male members. In fact liberal/progressive men played an important role in the early women's rights and women's suffrage movement. --Mindamie (talk) 12:31, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Solovetsky Monastery

message: The above was the note to me when the following was reverted, the 2nd half (on the GULAG)
was my contribution.
"Solovetsky Monastery (Соловецкий монастырь in Russian), was the greatest citadel of Christianity in the Russian North, and was then turned into a special Soviet prison and labor camp, from 1926-1939 which served as a prototype for the GULAG system."
The statement on the GULAG is factual.  I've been inside the Monastery buildings myself
and seen evidence (at least in the form of a one room museum type display) of this.  Solzhenitsin writes about it in the "Gulag Archpeligo" and I've seen references or excerpts on this from Gorky, newspaper articles, etc.
So, I guess my only problem is that I'd like the facts included, and that this being the birthplace of the GULAG, that this fact is important enough to be put up front.
A couple minor things:
1) "has been" instead of "was" looks too much like a Soviet translation
2) There are seperate articles on "Solovki" "Solovetsky Islands" and "Solovetsky Monastery."  I'm not suggesting that right now that we merge these, but it might be proper to consider what should go where.
3) I'm trying to figure out what's the problem with putting a mention of the GULAG upfront.
So I'll put my half sentence back in and await an answer.  Smallbones 13:41, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

And if it is either of these two, then which building we are talking about, because all we see is a number of buildings there. A caption should explain a picture not confuse readers further.

I believe that as a member of the Potter’s House Christian Fellowship, wcwarren has a conflict of interest in editing this page and needs to declare his COI.
