Talk:John Verbruggen

message: I've removed the footnote template and pointed out inside the single reference itself — Highfill, Philip Jr, Burnim, Kalman A., and Langhans, Edward (1973–93), Biographical Dictionary of Actors, Actresses, Musicians, Dancers, Managers and Other Stage Personnel in London, 1660–1800 — that all the information comes from the "Verbruggen, John" article in it. A requirement for "inline" references doesn't make sense in such a case. Where would one even put the footnote? Repeat it at the end of each paragraph? Quite unhelpful. And just in case somebody wants to add a tag to reprove the lack of a page reference: no, there isn't a page reference for where in the biographical dictionary the Verbruggen article is; but then that isn't needed (or per MLA even desirable) for an alphabetical work such as a biographical dictionary. (I'm not trying to be difficult here — I know the page reference issue often leads to unprofitable arguments, which I don't enjoy more than anybody else. I would put in the unneeded page range if I could, just to keep everybody happy, but my library has lost the relevant volume. :-() Bishonen | talk 12:16, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Red Doors is a 2005 American film written and directed by Georgia Lee. The independent film, inspired by the directors family,  features a Chinese American family.Red Doors was Lee’s first feature film. Early drafts won the Jerome Foundation New York Media Arts Grant Award, and later wan the best narrative feature prize at the 2005 Tribeca Film Festival. The film was produced independently by Georgia Lee because Hollywood producers wanted to make the Wongs a Caucasian family for commercial purposes

Plans for the Article:
Although the article appears to have some information, it is mostly a summary of the movie's plot. As a result, I'd like to make sure the links cited in the article are working and correct. I've also noticed that some of the information has been directly copied and pasted to the article from other articles and interviews. I'd like to go in and edit the material to meet the guidelines of the cite. Additionally, I would like to add reviews of the film, more of the awards the film has won, reception the film has had, and information on Georgia Lee, the writer and director of Red Doors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Halekat3 (talk • contribs)

Talk:Siege of Citium

message: Having built the article, I now need to expand the paragraph content. Are there any external online sources for this article? Can anyone help me place this battle in the Greco-Persian Camapain box. It was a pretty significant engagement.--Arsenous Commodore 20:35, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Preliminary Phase 

message: I'm trying to improve the depth of coverage for the Greco-Persian wars across all articles, and get all of them up to at least Good Article status. However, this article (as with others) is problematic, for one main reason: the ancient sources don't have much to say about it (as evidenced by the stub nature of this article). The article can never be satisfactorily expanded, because there's nothing else to say, and no other details in the ancient sources.
Thus, I don't think it really needs a separate article.
I think that the events at Citium in 450 BC can be adequately covered at Wars of the Delian League#Siege of Citium, without needing a separate article. I suggest leaving this page as a redirect to the above article, and moving any content which is not already covered there, to Wars of the Delian League. The Greco-Persian Wars navigation box would still have "Citium" in it, but now directing to the appropriate subsection of the Wars of the Delian League article. This is the approach I have used for some other battles which are clearly not going to have a full article written about them.
Ultimately, if the consensus is that this deserves its own article, then I will not contest that. 
Having  checked briefly, it appears that are probably not many editors with a vested interest in this article. No-one has made a significant contribution to this article since Mar 2008, and they are now banned. So, I will wait one week for any opinions, and then act as described above. MinisterForBadTimes (talk) 21:33, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: MinisterForBadTimes, although I agree with what you say on the states of the ultimately ancient sources and the fact that not much has been said about this siege, I think a separate article is a good thing. My reasons are: 1. small separate article have a better chance of having a good number of external links which in good-lengthy articles would not be nice and helpful. 2. Who knows, as new publications come out, it might be possible to add more to these small articles. 3. What about adding a "for more information see Wars of the Delian League" to the top of the article?--Xashaiar (talk) 21:54, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Clearly no consensus, and no improvement (or edits) to the article in 6 months, so I have been WP:BOLD and done the redirect. If more information emerges on this battle, then we can easily re-instate it as an independent article. But for the time being, I think this is the best course of action.

thread_title: Picture

message: I've just looked at this page for the first time. Since when was Toyah a band? Toyah is a solo artist and was since her first hit single back in 1981. All her single and album covers featured just her, all the photo sessions featured just her, every magazine referred to Toyah as 'her'. I don't know enough about her career before that - but certainly the chart and reference books describe Toyah as a female singer (not a band), she won the BRIT award as a solo female artist (otherwise the award would have been for 'band'). Even her own official website doesn't refer to Toyah's music career as a band.
She may well have had a regular backing band, but then many solo artists do. To say that "Minx" is Toyah's first album as a solo artist is ridiculous. Is this one person's attempt to rewrite history? The fact that this page has been going for over 2 years astounds me (before that - the whole career was under Toyah as an individual). And why am I the only one to notice this after all this time? 
What does anyone else think?--Tuzapicabit (talk) 02:36, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

text: Absolutely - Toyah was always a band - when the band broke up she continued as a solo act under the same name, but the earlier (and best, IMNSHO) material was always from the band.

message: Are you sure you don't mean Olave not Agnes.  Olave, Lady Baden-Powell, as Chief Guide could hand out Silver Fish, Agnes I don't think could (except in very early Guiding when it was the top youth award not an award for outstanding service).  From what I've read Agnes was pushed (and pushed does seem to be the word) to the sidelines of Guiding/Scouting in the late teens.  --Erp (talk) 14:49, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, the Girl Scout's website refers to the woman who awarded her the Silver Fish as "Lady Baden-Powell", so that must be Olave, not Agnes. I'll correct the article. I apologize for confusing the two, but the history of scouting is not my area of expertise, and I had a bit of difficulty keeping the two Baden-Powells straight. My interest in the Storrows stems from Helen's connection to the abolitionist movement, and her involvement in settlement work. Thank you for alerting me to my error.

thread_title:  Agnes or Olave Baden-Powell 

message: It is tricky to decide when to use what name given that many women did change their names at least once in their lifetimes (upon marriage(s)).  I took a brief look at Elizabeth Fry born Gurney and Emma Darwin born Wedgwood.  Both are from prominent families but are best known by their married names.  Both articles try avoiding the married name before marriage (leading in one case to 'she' being perhaps overused and the other just her first name).  It is much rarer for men to change their names, off-hand there are several in the Tichborne Case (the case dealt with an inheritance, one condition of which required one Tichborne to become Doughty and several others to become Doughty-Tichborne, not to mention an impostor who claimed to be a missing Tichborne heir (though the impostor was referred to by his real name throughout the article not by either of his two adopted names)).
