Talk:WMNT-CD

message: Whyever would WUPW, already a Fox affiliate, affiliate with My Network TV? I really think we need a source for this claim. I mean, hey, there's always the other six television stations in the Toledo market... why not WBGU-TV as My Network TV's affiliate? (Insert sarcasm tag here.) -- SwissCelt 01:25, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: [[My Network TV]]

message: I removed the entire section about how WNGT has "bad video quality", pixelation, Windows error messages, etc... it may or may not be true, but there's nothing supporting what's clearly a personal observation by the editor, with no supporting evidence to back it up. Wikipedia articles, if I understand policy right, are not for "this station sucks" opinions... MPWard 02:46, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Someone has restored this section. I still believe it is personal opinion, no matter if it is thought to be the "general opinion" of Toledo market viewers, but I won't fight the battle. Attribution would be nice, i.e. from a newspaper or magazine article, not just from personal observation by the Wikipedia editor. MPWard 00:33, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

text: I modified the language to remove the editorial slant. As a Toledo resident, I can vouch for the broadcasting difficulties, but to describe the station as "run on the cheap" reflects a value judgment.historymike 20:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Bad quality references removed

message: Are you sure that it is WNGT 48 that became the MNTV affiliate with call letters WMNT? If so, why is it branded "My 58" and not "My 48" or something of that sort? Thistheman 21:17, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe the station realizes that more people are watching on cable than over the air, and decided to reflect that in the rebranding for MNTV (58 is their position on the local cable system). As long as the correct call letters and city of license are displayed (or said) once an hour, the FCC will let you call your station whatever you want. --Radiofreewill 20:09, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Early modern Switzerland

message: I am unsure about this title. "Ancien Régime" is the term used in retrospect, during Restauration. Maybe a better title would be Early Modern Switzerland or similar. dab (ᛏ) 08:25, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: move?

message: THe division between "Swiss Reformation 1516-1648" and "Early Modern Switzerland 1648-1798" is rather artificial. 
The Reformation in Switzerland was essentially complete by the 1540s. 
Of course religious tensions persisted, but this is true well beyond 1648, until 1847.
The Early Modern period in Switzerland should be taken to begin as soon as the religious fault lines had been established, right after the Second War of Kappel (1531), or at least after the end of the Schmalkaldic League in 1548.
The current topical division artificially places "Science and the arts / the Renaissance under the heading of Reformation in Switzerland. --dab (𒁳) 11:40, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  CEDICT -> CC-CEDICT 

message: In revision 447275565, 219.101.245.1 removed a reference to the maintainer's religion, saying "maintainer's religion is irrelevant to the article".
The relevance I see is this: Some Bible-related words are translated into Chinese differently by different Bible-related religions.  Let's call this set of words S.  We know that CEDICT contains some Bible-related words, and it seems likely that some of CEDICT's Bible-related words belong to the set S.  If a user of the dictionary is interested in the words in set S, and if that user cares about which religion(s) were involved in their translation, and if the dictionary itself does not give this information, then the user may wish to view the dictionary maintainer's religion as the most likely candidate.
Are there any counterarguments?  Meanwhile, I will revert the edit by 219.101.245.1 and add a comment referring to this talk page.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.5.210 (talk) 10:47, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Art historical discussion about Haratin 

message: The introductory section features the sentence "The Haratin are both culturally and ethnically distinct from modern sub-Saharan Africans", however the Gast (2000) source states "the African essence has been its own for several millennia" but notes the Haratins had a distinct gene flow.

Talk:Kristin Chenoweth

message: An IP has been attempting to change the orthography, altering the established spelling of internal links to WP articles, which is probably not a good idea. Our article is called Musical theatre and there is no obvious advantage in spelling it otherwise when linking to it, especially as even the most patriotic American must agree that both "theatre" and "theater" are current American spellings, as Merriam-Webster and other dictionaries of American English confirm. If the editor demurs we can discuss the matter here. Tim riley talk 18:09, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Tim riley.  In fact, American theatre professionals (I was one) usually prefer the spelling "theatre".  This was, long ago, discussed at length at the Musical theatre article and at the musical theatre project.
