Talk:Aloha Station Trust

message: This article implies that these stations are on the block.  Industry observers suggest that the purpose of the trust is to speed FCC approval of the going-private transaction (which counts as a "transfer of control" for FCC purposes), and many of these stations will be transferred back to Clear Channel once the private equity buyers have closed and the Commission approves assignment to the new owenrs of those stations which are actually intended to be sold.  The reason for this is that a transfer of control terminates the grandfathering of clusters which are over the ownership limits under current rules.  (I don't think this is spelled out explicitly in the rules, but the Commission's rationale in adopting Note 4 of Galaxy Broadcasting would apply a fortiori to a transfer of control.)  At least some of the stations being transferred to Aloha are in markets Clear Channel is expected to hold on to, and the exact lineup of stations they will keep in the formerly-grandfathered markets obviously depends on deals which have yet to be negotiated.  See, for example,  under "New York" and  under "Connecticut".  121a0012 02:34, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Lennard-Jones was a brilliant and important theorist, but Douglas Hartree was the first person to do computational chemistry (in 1933) by at least five years, and arguably Hartree is the single most important computational chemist in history. It makes no sense to refer to Lennard-Jones as "the initiator of modern computational chemistry." It would make sense to refer to him as "one of the most important early computational chemists."

Talk:John Logan Campbell

message: [Moved here from Schwede66's talk page]
Hi Schwede66, I have never ever heard him referred to as just "Logan Campbell", but always  as "John Logan Campbell". He is very famous under that name as "the father of Auckland". I would change the title to John Logan Campbell.Rick570 (talk) 21:13, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: From his DNZB bio: "So did John Logan, or Logan as he was more generally known, and he like his father studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh." I've never come across a case where DNZB hasn't got this right, and hence I didn't go through a formal move request, but boldly went ahead with renaming the article. I see that there is a Logan Campbell Room in The Northern Club. Schwede66 21:41, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Nevertheless, if you referring to him as such in Auckland, the name would probably generally be "corrected" to "John Logan Campbell" or there would be some question as to who was meant. Others would be more expert on this than me.Rick570 (talk) 23:34, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Feel free to put it up as a formal move request. Do you know how to do that? It can't simply be moved back; the system wouldn't allow you to.  And by what you say, it should probably be formally discussed anyway. Schwede66 23:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

message: I get that there's no established way to romanize the dialect, so it's understandable we fall back on IPA, but [səu55 ʦøʏ55-21 ɦᴇ13 ɦo31-33]? Surely a language that only has 3 tones is easier to describe than this ASCII mess.

Probably worth mentioning the other name of the dialect, though. — LlywelynII 05:03, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Talk:John Meyendorff

message: previous paragraph of the intro 
:Fr John Meyendorff retired as Dean of St Vladimir's Seminary on June 30, 1992, planning to dedicate more time to teaching and writing. Unfortunately, his creative plans were cut short when he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, to which he succumbed on July 22, 1992.
Creative plans cut short? Was he really diagnosed less than two months before his death, or was he rather retiring in the knowledge of his diagnosis? In my opinion this original intro would require some sort of reference. As the "unfortunately" isn't neutral anyways, I've rephrased it into:

Talk:Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation

message: As this is Wikipedia, the article needs sources in every section. This is very confusing; it is unclear as to whether one or more editors have tried to present the history of many Ojibwe people here, with references to numerous treaties and the War of 1812, or to those people most tied to the Turtle Mountain Reservation. The larger history is covered elsewhere, but the articles related to the Turtle Mountain Band, their history and reservations should be aligned and integrated so they support each other, rather than appearing to work at cross purposes.Parkwells (talk) 13:33, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Article needs sources

message: The Iroquois were unlikely to be the reference for Seven Nations, as previously noted here, as they were not Anishinaabe, and were competitors over time. The Six Nations of the Iroquois at the conclusion of the American Revolutionary War were given a reserve in Canada, as well as keeping their previously established reserves, such as the mostly Mohawk reserves of Kahnawake, Kanesatake, and Akwesasne.Parkwells (talk) 13:33, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Seven nations

message: I decided to be bold and removed the section of the article on Sitting Bull's possible grave site, which had been unsourced for years and years. Plenty of it is dubious at best, some claims are obviously false (Sitting Bull was not Anishinaabe!), it's poorly written and unclear in places, meanders over a bunch of random claims that have nothing to do with the actual subject, and bizarrely uses an Ojibwe title (Ogima = ogimaa "chief") for a Lakota chief. On a more fundamental level, it grants a large amount of space to what may or may not be a fringe theory among Hunkpapa people (it's surely fringe among historians) in an article that has nothing to do with that theory in the first place, since the theory claims Sitting Bull was buried on the Canadian side of the border, not anywhere on the Turtle Mountain Reservation!! (The source, as far as I can tell, is this article from 2007, but it's behind a paywall for me so I can't read the whole thing. But even ignoring everything else, if the source for this is just, "this one Lakota guy told a newspaper that Sitting Bull isn't buried where everyone thinks!", that should not count as a reliable source.) If much stronger and more reliable sources can be found and someone is willing to rewrite the material to be accurate, concise, and ... well-written, then maybe it could be included in the article on Sitting Bull himself, but as noted is still entirely inappropriate here. --73.166.134.151 (talk) 02:04, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
