Talk:Robert Adams (science fiction writer)

message: I added the United States Science Fiction Author Stub tag to this article. I don't think a single sentence followed by a bibliography qualifies as a full article, a little more biographical data would be nice. Maybe even what the man died of (I think it was Cancer). I also wonder whether someone could add a bit about how this is a classic example of a fan-base being left wanting by the death of an author who had several uncompleted plot-lines running. -Elipongo 14:06, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Mondego River

message: The article Mondego was recently moved to Mondego River, making way for a disambiguation page. The other articles on this disambiguation page are Baixo Mondego Subregion, Metro Mondego and several redlinked articles. Both are clearly named after the river Mondego, and are meaningless without their disambiguator (resp. Baixa and Metro). I think the disambiguation page should be moved to Mondego (disambiguation), and the river back to Mondego, as primary use. Markussep Talk 10:10, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Father Murphy

message: Please help me with...
Can I get help w/a MoS question concerning commas?
 
Wikipedia's MoS says this about commas: "In geographical references that include multiple levels of subordinate divisions (e.g., city, state/province, country), a comma separates each element and follows the last element unless followed by other punctuation. Dates in month–day–year format require a comma after the day, as well as after the year, unless followed by other punctuation. In both cases, the last element is treated as parenthetical. Incorrect: He set October 1, 2011 as the deadline for Chattanooga, Oklahoma to meet his demands. Correct: He set October 1, 2011, as the deadline for Chattanooga, Oklahoma, to meet his demands."
 
Concerning the commas in dates in month-day-year formet, using this example from the Father Murphy page, "Father Murphy is an American western drama series that aired on the NBC network from November 3, 1981 to September 18, 1983."
 The MoS says a comma is required after the year 1981:
 
"Father Murphy is an American western drama series that aired on the NBC network from November 3, 1981, to September 18, 1983."
 
Chicago, AP, APA & AMA all say says the same thing, in particular to dates written in the d-m-y format. All reputable sources agree - it's not ambiguous at all.
 
So why was my change reverted? It doesn't seem as if this is an optional comma; MoS says it's required; no exceptions are noted. What gives? 2605:E000:35C6:C200:C522:44A:E109:F43F (talk) 07:35, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Here Come the Brides

message: At the end of the story, Spock discovers that Stempel is one of his mother's ancestors, which ties in nicely, since Mark Lenard also played Spock's father Sarek in episodes of the original Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation, as well as several of the Star Trek movies.Cute, except it hardly makes sense for one of Amanda's ancestors to resemble Sarek.
:Agreed. IIRC from when I read it, nothing of the kind was said. However, the novel does offer a resolution of Jason and Aaron's bet in line with the terms as actually set in the pilot, and repeated several times over the first season: All the women will have married locals by the end of one year, not merely still be in Seattle. The producers idiotically failed to realize initially how much that would cramp the show, but they certainly did when second season script development began, and opened that season with the Bolts celebrating Jason's winning the bet, albeit specifying other terms, those described in the article. In the novel, Aaron and Biddie had fallen in love, and rather than let Jason marry her to keep from losing the bet, Stempel proposed and effectively forfeited it, not knowing that she had already turned the oldest Bolt down because of her love for Aaron. BTW, nowhere in the book can one find any legal acknowledgement to HCTB 's owners. Is this one Star Trek novel that went out of print fairly quickly? All of the above I submit is relevant to the article, especially the changing of the terms of the bet which happened in the series itself (forget about my admittedly speculation as to what happened behind the scenes). The content of the novel is surely attributable to that publication itself. Almost forgot: there were one other recurring character, the schoolmarm Miss Essie, played by Mitzi Hoag (no, I have no idea who she was teaching!). In fact, it was Big Swede's near-molestation of her in the pilot that prompted the "brides" arrangement/bet. They married near the end of the first season, and Hoag turned up well into the second season in a completely different role, as a nun! --Tbrittreid (talk) 22:12, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
