thread_title:  [[Retreat mining]] vs. [[Room and pillar]] mining 

message: I'm more familiar with the evocative phrase "Robbing the pillars" in reference to historical practices, and this is used in the Coal mining article as an apparent synonym for "retreat mining".  Are these actually the same, or does the new term reflect some change in practices? Mike Serfas 20:06, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Robbing the pillars" 

message: I propose that Retreat mining be merged into Room and pillar. As far as I can tell from the present article retreat mining, retreat mining is just a stage of the room and pillar system. As it is, both articles are also short enough that they could be served by a merger. If anyone knews anything that would change this impression, please say so.
I've already moved some details over from retreat mining to room and pillar. Retreat mining was already listed as a 'see also', without being mentioned in the article itself, so I figured it would be good to elaborate on the subject. The material is an edited version of information from the room and pillar article.

Talk:Trevor Donovan

message: Has anybody got a sufficiently reliable date of birth for Donovan? IMDB is not sufficient for this purpose. —C.Fred (talk) 05:03, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I hate birth date challenges. It's always so hard to find what are normally considered reliable sources for them. Usually, the dates just go unchallenged, and no one seems to mind. However, I found two sources for the 10/11/78 date, one an interview with Donovan in which he says his birth day is October 11, and another a local Southern California newspaper that says 10/11/78. I've updated the article accordingly. I hope that satisfies everyone.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:08, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, a new editor changed the date to 1980, so I was at a loss which date was valid—that's the reason I deleted it altogether. The newspaper date is perfect, from a RS standpoint. Thank you for finding it! —C.Fred (talk) 16:51, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I wasn't criticizing your removal of the date. I just find these sorts of issues frustrating on Wikipedia, but I understood why you did it. Just so you know, I believe the new editor who changed the date didn't do it for any good reason.  As far as I can tell, there is no source that indicates 1980 (IMDb says 1978). The only conflict I found was whether the month/day was October 11 or October 7, which is why I was happy to find the interview with Donovan that actually specified the day of the month.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:14, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

message: Should some of the subcategories under this one be moved to a new category for LGBT-related works? I notice the description at :Category:Mass media distinguishes "creative works" from "media".
I mainly ask because of :Category:LGBT-related media by decade. While film, television, and literature are all currently included under :Category:LGBT-related media, maintaining consistency within the "by decade" category would require categorizing :Category:1680s LGBT literature as "1680s LGBT-related media", which seems wrong.

text: It's good for those of us versed in complexity theory.  I also think OP is correct about the difficulty -- it seems about right for Mathworld, but daunting to the usual Wikipedia reader.  I think the same is true of most of the topics posted here about complexity theory, whether jargon-tagged or not.  I may try to come back to this, but only after figuring out how to improve all of the related articles.  For one thing, I am not sure how much introductory material should be repeated in all the articles; they are hard enough that there should be at least some common stuff.  I don't like the idea of just linking to a general intro.  Perhaps the general preamble suggested above should be completed and inserted in all or most of the related topics. kogorman (talk) 15:45, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

text: Correct me if I am wrong, but mathematicians and computer scientists are the ones who probably access this page the most.  Is linking jargon to relevant articles not sufficient?  Otherwise, the explanations would be intrusive.  I think we should mention some specific examples of clarifications here and make them, otherwise remove the tags.  Looks like it was tagged as early as 2009 and is still tagged, which suggests that if changes were needed, they would have been made by now. Alejandro Erickson (talk) 14:46, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
Category talk:American LGBT musicians

message: Is there any point to a list which groups such a diverse (in both musical style and in level of public exposure) group of musicians based only on the strength of their sexual preference?
The worry of course, being that users unfamiliar with american music, may be confused into thinking that these completely unrelated musicians have anything to do with each other.
Secondly from a completely personal perspective I find the idea of roll-call based on an entirely personal preference entirely distasteful, as may many readers - not to mention the artists themselves.
Is there some other way of better presenting this information so that information concerning those artists on the list who actively promote LGBT issues are somewhat seperate from those whose choices are entirely personal and have nothing to do with the content of their work.
Thank you

thread_title:  American Citizenship Controversy 

message: Regarding the section of the article that purports to discuss Demographics of Alaska and Hawaii with respect to Samoan Americans (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Samoan_Americans&action=edit§ion=9), I think a more neutral way of referring to the proportion of individuals in a given community should be used in this article. Also, perhaps linking to the 2020 US Census data would be appropriate. In July of 2020, the demographic category that was captured into which Samoan Americans would be coded was "Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone or in combination with one or more other races", and the total count in the state of Alaska was 18,668 out of 733,391 people in the state. For the ZIP code 99723, those numbers were 4,934 and 407. The implication of "rife with" would mean a large percentage, but 407 / 4934 * 100 = 8.2% is not a large percentage. Perhaps an indication of a growing proportion of the population would be appropriate, in which case one could refer to the 2010 Census and comment upon the change between the two.  The original author used 2021 Census data, but did not compare it to show any trend over time.

Category talk:LGBT writers

message: Unfortunately the category of LGBT writers was deleted in the greek wikipedia as all the administrators there considered it racist. There was even an admin who claimed that Kavafis or Lorka were not gays and their homosexuality cannot be proved. Most of them claimed that the categorization of an author as gay is racist and that only their work can be classified like that. Of course after deleting the category no one cared to create a new category with Gay works.
 
Its sad...and the saddest of all is that these people are admins in a whole wikipedia. 
I wish there was someone that could do something to change the situation in greek wikipedia before all articles r damaged by nationalist racist admins. Its a disgrace. There is no argument in deleting an article that exists already in other wikipedias and especially the english one because the current racist admins of greek wikipedia dont want it. 
I ve decided never to write in greek wikipedia again as long as these ppl do whatever they want to promote their racism and sexism. I hope any admin of english wikipedia who cares to look after that serious issue. Thank u in advance. Blue cave (talk) 16:50, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

I suggest there could be two new categories created:

I also suggest that merely donating to one side or the other of the debate, or having a statement buried in page 50 of a political platform does not make a notable supporter or opponent.
