Talk:Helen Cutter

message: I, the creator of this article, contest this speedy deletion for the following reason:
Helen Cutter is a minor (as in does not appear much) character in Primeval, but she is an important character because she is the only person who may and is likely to hold key information about the anomolies. She has even announced to nick cutter that this is the case. I believe that it is because of this that this article should be kept. PLEASE KEEP! Stwalkerster 21:27, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps we should have a page for minor characters- while she is important, she's mostly important for reasons of plot I suppose, and we don't really know much about her character, just what she's done to an extent. Ayries 22:14, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm, for now you may be right. Perhaps she belongs in a List of Primeval minor characters article. --GracieLizzie 23:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: On second thoughts, wait until tonight- it seems to feature her extensively and might make her a more major character or give us more on her personality, which might need it's own article to fully explain as that along with the plot info might add up to quite a lot.

Talk:Yarkon River

message: This article states that the river "became increasingly polluted after the 1950s".
The article Maccabiah Games states that a collapsing bridge "plung[ed] about 100 members of the Australian delegation into the polluted waters of Yarkon River."
So when was the river polluted? And even if it's apparently not clear who polluted it (this article claims at least only rumors about a power plant) - it should probably be known what the pollutants were, i.e. what was in the water??

Talk:Gate Church of the Trinity, Kyiv Pechersk Lavra

message: I have failed this for GA status (it's been on the nomination list long enough) because I just don't get the feeling it's comprehensive enough. This church has stood for nearly a millenium ... surely it has more history than three paragraphs worth? Certainly not when the intro promises "... [it has] been reconstructed many times through its history." For an article about a building/structure it is essential to have this (see Winchester Cathedral, which at least has a little more).
I'd also like to see a citation for: "Mykola spent 36 years as a monk, and founded the Monastery Hospital of the Trinity within the Lavra." Also, "... the overall visual uplifting effect created a heightened sense of spiritual power" and "The initial ascetic appearance was replaced with an intricate and fanciful baroque style" need to be cited if they are someone's opinion, rewritten to be less subjective, or taken out entirely if they can't. We do not make such aesthetic judgements in articles, not by ourselves. Daniel Case 20:42, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Feathered hair

message: Feathered hair is the look of swept-back layers -- like Farrah's hair -- usually held in place with hairspray. Girls would 'feather' their fringe (bangs) once it got long enough. Andy Gibb feathered his hair for a while, if I remember correctly. The hairstyle described here is just long and parted in the middle, which is NOT feathered, it's someone's extremely bad description of some no-style hairstyle.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.183.51.17 (talk) 17:09, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You are correct. I remember it well, because I could never quite achieve it with my curly hair. This was before flatirons were widely available. I used to use a blowdryer and a round brush, or sometimes a curling iron, and I'd end up with a stiff cylinder of hair on each side of my face.

thread_title:  UHEP? OACP?

message: Lee also describes his work on a little squad of soldiers whose job, apparently, was to rough up those who were unsympathetic to the Republican cause. He portrays himself as not very focussed on this task, and it's evident from his tone that he didn't particularly enjoy it, but at the same time, he deflects the possibly very nasty implications of the job by treating it somewhat comically, as if he were a mere naif. This, for me, has always been the most puzzling part of the book. How could he possibly not have known that such squads were (potentially, if not actually) murder gangs? To me, this was always why it took him so long to write the book, a sense of shame at having participated in victimizing people just because some political boss told him to go an do it. The diaries were in his possession for a long time, and yet he only began to write after they were stolen; why? Because then there is only the one account of an (admitedly, that is, by himself) fallible witness, and no other account to contradict it. 
I agree with the summary of the book at the end of the article, that in general the book paints a fair portrait of his time in Spain. But that nasty little job and its implications sticks in my mind, and I wonder if there is any way to check on what actually happened.Theonemacduff (talk) 06:43, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Veronica persica

message: Looking at the Japanese version of this article, there is a blurb about the origin of the name. It is called "オオイヌノフグリ", which is literally "large dog's scrotum", not because the fruit looks like the scrotum of a large dog (it is actually more heart-shaped), but because the plant looks like a larger version of "イヌノフグリ" (dog's scrotum), which does in fact have scrotum-shaped fruit.
I would love to include this interesting information in the English article, but I'm not sure how. Is it OK to cite another language's article? Should I just cite the Japanese article's primary sources?

This was the best I could find in a quick Google: https://crafttabby.com/explore/kyoto-gyoen-flowers-spring.

thread_title: Adaptations

message: To make clear the point on Javert's religious faith, the followign quote
"It will be remembered that the fundamental point in Javert, his element, the very air he breathed, was veneration for all authority. This was impregnable, and admitted of neither objection nor restriction. In his eyes, of course, the ecclesiastical authority was the chief of all; he was religious, superficial and correct on this point as on all others. In his eyes, a priest was a mind, who never makes a mistake; a nun was a creature who never sins; they were souls walled in from this world, with a single door which never opened except to allow the truth to pass through." - Les Miserables, Book 8, Chapter 5.
