thread_title:  Priorities 

message: Hersch was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Jewish parents. He began playing the piano at the age of four (under the tutelage of Jeanne Kirstein) and began to compose music by eight five. He won national piano competitions starting at the age of ten.
Hersch first became interested in jazz while at Grinnell College in Iowa. He dropped out of school and started playing jazz in Cincinnati. He continued his studies at the New England Conservatory under Jaki Byard, attracting attention from the press – “a fine showcase for Fred Hersch” – in a college recital."the third stream" (Jan 20, 1977)  Bay State Banner, Boston Upon graduation, he became a jazz piano instructor at the college the conservatory."Jazzman on Classic Path To Wider Audience: Pianist Fred Hersch" (July 9, 1989) San Francisco Chronicle p. 42
In his 2017 autobiography, Good Things Happen Slowly: A Life In and Out of Jazz, Hersch talks about seeing Sun Ra and his Intergalactic Arkestra at Gilly’s a now-closed jazz club in Dayton, Ohio. Hersch recalls being in the audience when bandleader Art Pepper kicked the pianist hired for the occasion off the stand and asked if there was anyone in the audience who could sit in, an offer that Fred took up which essentially launched his career.
Hersch has taught at the New England Conservatory, The Juilliard School, The New School, and The Manhattan School of Music and has given master classes around the world. He holds Honorary Doctorate degrees from Grinnell College and Northern Kentucky University.
This is an example of one of the reverted changes. Contains citations and notable information about the individual's music career.

message: I changed the class rating to C class, i believe it meets all the qualifications.P0PP4B34R732 (talk) 20:43, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: C-Class Article Grading

message: A review of multiple statements in the Biography section are needed for relevance and Peacock. Additionally, Jim Doyle has not been the Governor of Wisconsin since 03-Jan-2011 making the final sentence out-of-date as it currently stands. Finally, if his philanthropic efforts mentioned in the final paragraph are considered noteworthy and relevant, they should likely be moved to a Personal Life section, see Bart Starr. 
Vernand Morency grew up in Miami, Florida, where his parents, immigrants from Haiti, had him working in their family real estate business from the age of 5. This experience impacted him tremendously and helped shape a strong, disciplined work ethic which translated into successful careers in both professional baseball and football.
His love for real estate never went away and in 2006-07, Vernand was part of a syndicate group led by T Boone Pickens to develop the $250+ million Boone Pickens Stadium at his alma mater, Oklahoma State University. In 2007 and 2008, Vernand was twice competitively selected to participate in the prestigious NFL Business Management and Entrepreneurship Program at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.
Today, in addition to being an accomplished professional baseball and football player, Vernand invests, owns and manages properties across the country and is involved in several different non-profit initiatives, including work with Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle and his Wisconsin Covenant initiative promising all eighth-graders affordable higher education upon academic success. 24.22.162.235 (talk) 04:25, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Fred J. Eckert

message: This article has serious NPOV problems. It is written in a way that suggests its author has a close connection to the subject. It is not written in an objective style. It alleges that he as an obscure upstate senator from a backwater was "singlehandedly" responsible for "major" reforms and that when *he* left the legislature, pension problems began. That is highly dubious b/c of how government and NY state politics work. No one person is that instrumental in any legislation in this state. Furthermore the writing style is far too laudatory for an encyclopedic entry. There is no quality control at all and an obscure one-term Representative from upstate NY claims to be friends with everyone from the then-President Ronald Reagan to Milton Freeman to Bruce Catton to Michael Dell. The article is tedious in length and could easily be halved. Finally there are no workable links. All links are to supposed print articles, which means very little of what is written (even if it was NPOV--it is not--) is actually verifiable by other users. I request an editorial arbitration to seriously rework this article or I will start chopping it down to its subject's one-term size. 66.67.32.161 (talk) 02:19, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Sovereign Press

message: I'm pretty sure that Sovereign Press had morphed into Margaret Weis Productions by the time that it had the Battlestar Galactica licence.
I'm currently pushing for the Margaret Weis Productions, Ltd article to be demerged from Margaret Weis. But I think that (considering that Sovereign Press ceased to exist when Margaret Weis Productions came into existance) this article should be merged into the recreated Margaret Weis Productions, Ltd article. I think the MWP article, should be written in a style that allows for a Sovereign Press, Inc section that shows what was created before the company transformed.

thread_title:  Battlestar Galactica licence - isn't that an MWP thing? 

message: The history of this company is a bit muddled with the history of Margaret Weis Productions, Ltd. So I have requested help on the Dragonlance Forums. I'm hoping that some of the experts that hang out on that forum, can identify some good secondary sources that can be used to improve this article.
One thing that needs investigating is the current status of SP. I was under the impression that the company was somehow merged into or replaced by MWP. This needs investigation, as a merger of this article (into the recently restored MWP article) might be appropriate. However, as I do not have accurate information (yet) I am not going to tag this article for merger. Big Mac (talk) 15:33, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

It has historical significance as it is still standing today and it was originally the saloon for the railroad workers.

There has been modernization in siding and such, but even the door handles in the former brothel still remain.  They are porcelain.  I just have been having trouble finding online references.

Talk:Sechele I

message: When someone writes the politically charged words "a group of Bahurutshe people who were slaves of the Boers escaped and fled to the Kwêna for protection", then they need to bring evidence. If the London Missionary Society was the source of that statement, then reveal it. The London Missionary Society of Britain used that charge over and over and over, but when the British annexed the old South African Republic in 1877, they could not find a single slave to free. The historian Theal also comments on that. As far back as the Black Circuit Court debacle of the early 1800s the judges lambasted that particular organisation for its lying. The hatred of the Society for the Boers was legendary and one can find it all over their writings. That accusation was repeatedly abused by the British Colonial Office as a pretext to extend their territory by force. They used it to take Natal, they used it again to take Griekwaland West, and kept up that accusation as cloak for their territorial intentions.
So, bring evidence or change the words. They detract from the article.
