Talk:18th-century French art

message: I think an article with this title could do with an image or two.--104.247.239.237 (talk) 23:50, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Some examples? 

message: I chose this article because I wanted to find something related to France. I found this article on 18th-century French which is something I am also intrigued in learning more about. 
I felt that not everything was relevant to the article. Some information felt it was put in just to be added. I think to improve this article they could've talked more about the relevant big artist of that time. The tone is relatively neutral through out the article. There is one only citation so that causes me to believe a lot of this could've been general knowledge from the writer. The only conversation in the talk page is about how the article could use some more images to identify the 18th-century art from other centuries. Odelach (talk) Odelach

message: 'Yerrinbool' is supposed to be the Aboriginal name for Wood Duck. is this so? If it is, which Aboriginal language does it come from? The town in the Wingecarribee Shire that has this name seems to have been given it by a real estate agent, circa 1919. I doubt that Yerrinbool is, for example, a Tharawal or Gundungerra word, since the species is so widespread. Does anyone know for sure?  Bluedawe 04:02, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Illawarra escarpment

message: i think this is definitely worthy of expansion. the escarpment or scarp is a important local landmark and is recognised by many as such. it also contains a vast variety of ecosystems (such as the minnamurra rainforest), tourist destinations (bald hill, mt keira) and natural/geographical diversity. also the photos give a rather vague definition, showing but one part of the range and a view from another. Perhaps a map could be placed? That way the explanation of it's length could be shortened to include more important encyclopaedic info such as flora and fauna habitat etc.

Talk:Springthorpe Memorial

message: If the quoted inscription is exactly correct, the lady was buried on her 30th birthday, which means she was undoubtedly less than 30 years old when she died - not by much, but by enough to make the lede incorrect in saying she was 30 years old when she died. Is that worth a minor correction - somebody? anybody? . . .--Raymondwinn (talk) 21:12, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Wynona, Oklahoma

message: I really don't know why Wynona redirects to a low-priority small town in Oklahoma -- maybe a disambiguation page would make more sense (as maybe I'm looking for Wynona's Big Brown Beaver, Wynona Carr or For The Beauty of Wynona). Anoncow 16:16, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Collingwood Town Hall

message: The City of Collingwood was incorporated in 1855
The Town Hall was constructed in 1885-1887
The City of Collingwood was then divided into 3 Wards on 31 May 1887. The Ward of Collingwood, Ward of Abbotsford and Ward of Clifton Hill.
Collingwood Townhall was positioned outside of the Ward of Collingwood, but still within the City of Collingwood.
Collingwood Town Hall was never within the suburb of Collingwood, as Abbotsford was first subdivided in 1839 and such only ever existed within the City of Collingwood municipality.
In 1994 the City of Collingwood was abolished and suburbs of Abbotsford, Clifton Hill & Collingwood were incorporated into The City of Yarra Archer.mb (talk) 00:32, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Noel Counihan

message: This article does not cite any references in relation to content.  I do not dispute that the person existed but unverified content may be removed where suitable third party references are not provided.  The current reference that is present is a direct link to the website of the initial editor and breaches WP:V#SELF--VS talk 22:41, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: No references

message: As VS talk has pointed out, as the initiator of this page I inserted two external links, one of which was to a website which I published. I acknowledge this is potentially a conflict of interest. The Art the Alternative Tradition website was done for Art Historian, Robert Smith in 2001, one of the art historian authorities on the work of Noel Counihan. The website is a virtual tour of an exhibition of the works of Noel Counihan and other artists who influenced him, at Moreland Council's Counihan Gallery. I believe the link is still relevant to the article as it contains photographs of Noel Counihan's work placed within the context of his artistic peers by an acknowledged authority in this field. If you agree with this I ask for you to add the link above to the Noel Counihan article as an external link or reference. I have also added two authoritative references for the Noel Counihan article and removed the No references tag.--Takver 12:22, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Template talk:Listed Invalid ISBN

message: I recently used the template in the Infobox of the article The Crown Snatchers (no other English-language editions of this book, as far as I can tell), and I was wondering: Is there any way to modify this template so that there is an option that allows the suppression of ISBN in front of the number, in order to avoid the duplication you see in the Infobox? Or is there another way to handle this situation that would avoid the duplication?--ShelfSkewed Talk 14:51, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Stockdale paradox

message: I must disagree with User:Henrygb's decision to merge this paradox article with the main article on James Stockdale. The former is about a literary creation, resulting in a philosophy primarily discussed in relation to business. James Stockdale in fact, had very little to do with the description and development of the paradox itself. It seems to me that including this "Category::Logic" and "Category::Paradoxes" article in the biography article at James Stockdale disrupts the purpose of the latter page, which is the about the life and times of a person. --LightYear 00:52, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You can always undo my changes (just edit the previous version in the histories, e.g. ).  But it is an orphan article (i.e. it has no incoming links from other articles) and to me it is no paradox or even an argument for stoicism (Stockdale claims to have been optimistic as to the end result) and perhaps just an argument against expecting short timetables.  There is certainly no logic involved.  --Henrygb 01:46, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Rather than blindly reverting though, I'd like to suggest that this page has merit. I agree the paradox is weak from a logical point of view, but Good To Great isn't a robust work of hard-nosed philosophy. This is just a business management concept, which I originally came to Wikipedia for clarification of. In fact, as you say, the paradox might not even be an accurate description of Stockdale's philosophy, hence the inclusion of the paradox in James Stockdale is inappropriate. I think a link from Good To Great would be reasonable, thereby de-orphaning the page. I only added the Category::Logic tag because it was the parent of Category::Paradox and I was responding to the earlier uncategorised tag. --LightYear 02:05, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Durrum D-500

message: The D-500 was built in 1966 - Durrum closed nearly 20 years ago. The article was written for historical purposes to show the state of technology, computers and medicine thirty years ago. It came from a "What did you do in the war, Grandpa" type of question, so I think the artcle has merit and should be retained.
I was one of the Field Service Engineers working for Durrum, travelling worldwide and installing the D-500, so I am quite familiar with its history and technology. (I still have brochures and tech manuals!)
