thread_title: Lake House

message: This article needs a lot of improvement. I will be working on updating the history section for citation, and consolidating the information as it's far too lengthy. The attractions and events section is also not of encyclopedia merit. Climate and transport sections also hold no citations. --Shumway (talk) 09:26, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Update

message: NB flagged for email due to a link from the ABS in article. Got around to editing this article further. I've consolidated the history section which went on for far too long and repeated statements in some paragraphs, and put dates into chronological order. It could do with a lot more work but good citations are hard to find. There are several sites with a lot of different dates and events regarding the town. Reduced the photos to thumbnail size. Created an economy section with references to Daylesford's economy and festivals which isn't complete and still reads too heavily like an advert. Added a transport section talking about major roads, with PT (bus routes) to be added in the future. Removed a massive section that just listed names of restaurants and hotels that had been added recently by anonymous users. Added a gallery to move one of the photos from the history section.

Every major artist needs a Gallery. Tx Billyshiverstick (talk) 05:34, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Because of how recently Basquiat was working, much of his work is still under copyright. Wikipedia is more stringent than most when it comes to exercising fair use for art, so any works we put into the article will have to have good reason. It helps if the article speaks directly about the work in question, or if the work is placed and captioned to illustrate a particular style or graphic motif of his. Because of this, I’m fairly sure galleries of non-free works are not allowed. — HTGS (talk) 04:32, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

message: Here are some references:
* Musala Peak, or Stalin Peak (mountain, Bulgaria) — articles in Encyclopædia Britannica. Unfortunately the complete text is not freely accessible.
* Přejmenování ve východní Evropě — (List of Renamed Places in Eastern Europe) 
I can add a reference to a Czech book about Balkan Mountains but I am not sure if it is desired to have such references in English Wikipedia. --pabouk 16:16, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Former name Stalin 

message: The quote from the article you have cited as the reason to include this paragraph (""the president will present the suggestion in the parliament after two weeks"") is erroneous. In fact, it refers to some political consultations between all parliamentary-represented parties and the president. The passage regarding Musala is further down and it is explained that this will be discussed first and "Saint John of Rila" is only Ataka's suggestion. The president explained that renaming decisions are taken by a commission and only after that can they be directed to the president.
In summary:
* no voting in parliament is referenced in the article
* no "official renaming" is about to take place; the name is only the idea of one opposition political party which seeks to provoke a discussion
* the president has explained to the party leader that a certain process for renaming exists and has to be followed
In my opinion, these three points make the passage you have added to the article misleading and non-notable. In the future, please peruse the source carefully and try not to alter its meaning, intentionally or not. I will be expecting your response here or the revert of your edit; else, I will remove the passage in 24 hours. Best,  — Toдor Boжinov — 10:39, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It is indeed erroneous, but the sentence should be rewritten not deleted. The suggestion for the renaming will be given to comission and if it comply with the comission's rules, the president will decide to rename the peak or not. Before you answer, I will remove at first time "voting in parliament" and "official renaming". Best. --Ceco31 (talk) 14:24, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Todor.  This passing initiative has had no follow up so far, there is no proposal by the presidential commission on place naming, and the text should be removed I believe. Apcbg (talk) 18:33, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

text:  The passage is now a correct representation of the source. However, per WP:NOT#NEWS and with Apcbg's support, I am going to remove it as non-notable.  — Toдor Boжinov — 07:47, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Peak renaming 

message: If indeed Musala means "place for pray" and comes from Arabic, it is likely that it related to مصلی (Musalla, place of prayer) from the root صلاة (Sala, prayer) and it would not have anything to do with "Allah".

thread_title:  Fishing? 

message: Perhaps I'm a bit sensitive to this, but in common parlance, "populations" usually implies humanity, unless there's a reason for saying otherwise.  
For example, we might discuss a Panda population, but it would usually only be in the context of a paucity of Pandas (or conversely, a large population of a certain animal).
Inserting "human" in the discussion of population sounds awkward.  And in the context of a racial/ethnic discussion, it seems obviously redundant.

Talk:Book of Jeremiah

message: Is it not relevant here that "Jeremiah" has become a byword for a pessimist? --DominicSayers 07:48, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: pessimist?

message: "Both versions are heavily edited and reflect the perspectives of later ages" - this appears prejudicial at least from the standpoint that there are alternative views and explanations for the differences. Since the majority of the Book of Jeremiah is preserved with about 15-17% variance in content (not order of content), to say the book is heavily edited can be misunderstood. It would be better to explain what is meant by heavily edited, and give at least a paragraph or two on why that paradigm is better than the concept that contents have been preserved. JohnRajendra (talk) 13:17, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: After reading over the source material provided for the disputed point, the word "redacted" seems to have triggered the use of "heavily edited". In checking the context of the source, the issue seems to be talking more about the problems with having two different versions of Jeremiah that, while parts of it are the same, other parts differ. I've changed the sentence to the following one in light of that information:"Scholars have had differing opinions as to how to reconstruct the historical aspects of the Book of Jeremiah due to the differences each version contains when compared with each other."That change also required the source to include p.85 in addition to p.86.If there's any problems with the edit or otherwise, please let me know. Thanks, Azureindignation (talk) 01:06, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

message: The Hebrew title of this work, according to the Hebrew Wikipedia, is ספר ירמיהו, which translates to The Book of Jeremiah in English.But, this work wasn't composed entirely in Hebrew.  As the article itself states, verse 10:11 was in Aramaic.  Yet, there is no mention here of how the work is referred to commonly in Aramaic, nor whether said title also translates to The Book of Jeremiah in English.  For that matter, there is not even a mention of this work on the Aramaic Wikipedia.allixpeeke (talk) 01:34, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

message: I have put back the attribution to Gray's anatomy which was removed for a non specified reason several years ago. There is still substantial material in the 'Variations' section which is taken verbatim from Gray's barring a few insertions. This seems to be due to an original large chunk of material incorporated and correctly attributed by Arcadian which has subsequently had the attribution stripped from it and a large chunk of the material removed, specifically all of that detailing the actual basic structure of the Latissimus dorsi muscle.

While the lats would be used to decelerate, it's still pretty strange when you could just do a bent-over row.

Talk:Strappado

message: In the "Modern Instances" section, the article states that in 2017 that form of torture was used by the Iraqi Army. There is a unique source (RT.com) which I don't think is sufficient given usual criticism against RT. Whilst I do not have better sources, I find the RT article to raise quite a few questions. In particular, I find it rather hard to believe journalist(s) managed to get such high quality photos taken with the approval of army officials and then had to sneak out of Iraq because the government would have disapproved. Are there other sources that would confirm/infirm the claim? I'm flagging the information as dubious in the meantime. (no doubt horrible things happened in Mosul but it's not the role of WP to relate unverifiable facts). This news story http://abcnews.go.com/International/deepdive/brian-ross-investigates-the-torture-tapes-47429895 is another report based on the same photos. I can't vouch for accuracy though.
