message: La Ciotat is referred to as a "city". Why? Is there a formal French definition? Is there a cathedral (a commonly used indicator). Or has the name just been used as correct? La Ciota's own website refers to "ville". I notice that the language style seems to be US, where the term "city" is much more widely applied than normal in Europe.

message: USSR created 6x6 truck - ZIS-36 - before war, but hadn't enough time to develop it and begin mass production, so Studebaker was indeed first mass 6x6 truck. Also, USSR wanted to produce diesel engine for truck, but had no enough time and decided to build licensied Detroit Diesel 71 series engines, but Winter War led to trade embargo. During WWII USSR imported most technologies of this engines, but Cold War stopped this process and soviet engineers developed this engine for mass production by themselves. GM 4-71 and 6-71 became base for YaAZ-204 and 206 respectively which were produced in 1947-1993 Ходок (talk) 14:06, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Template talk:Canada provinces map

message: I think there should be more like it for other national subdivision articles, although I wonder about exactly where the map template should be placed - at the bottom like a navigational template (since it serves as a navigational aid), or the top like an infobox (since most map pictures are placed in infoboxes). Any ideas? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Toussaint (talk • contribs) 15:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Innovative template! 

message: At Provinces and territories of Canada this was used in the "See also" section, in a way that breaks up the list (contrary to MOS:LISTGAP). It looks strange because it's floating right, instead of clearing the margins like an ordinary image does on narrow screens. I moved it before the list so the list isn't broken up, but this squeezes the article text into a very narrow space, making it hard to read. If it's put below the portal links instead, the second entry in the list (which is a sublist of the first entry) is placed below the image, which looks even worse. This issue can't be fixed at the article level because the necessary CSS can't be specified there. Hairy Dude (talk) 11:28, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Harry "Skip" Brandon

message: I'm new to editing wikipedia articles, though I have some small experience working on another smaller wiki project set up by some friends.  Anyway, this article concerns my father, who is also one of my bosses at the moment. Neither he, nor anyone at our company, have had anything to do with this particular article, and we agree it does read like a resume, which isn't helpful to anyone, including us, as it just makes it look like we're ineptly trying to promote him and the company. (We suspect it was altered to the current state by a PR person trying to promote Skip ahead of an interview or speech).  So I'm going to be trying over the next few days and weeks to try to clean up this article so it consists only of verifiable information, and doesn't read like a promotion or resume, but I'm fairly new to wikipedia so I'm hoping to get some help.  I'm trying to give full disclosure of my relationship and all in hopes that it won't appear that I'm doing anything untoward, I'm just trying to fix up this article!
Would it be appropriate, at least for the moment, to roll it back to the January 17 2007 version?  That seems to have been the last version before it was altered to it's current, resume-like state. I'd then like to work to improve it and flesh it out a bit, but that seems like a pretty good starting place. Brandonshire (talk) 17:08, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sure, go ahead.  It is currently prodded (proposed for deletion), but this procedure, designed for uncontroversial deletions, can be forestalled by removing the tag.

Talk:Punt

message: as a verb (derived from the American football meaning) can colloquially mean the conscious act of ignoring responsibilities for class assignments or work, as in, "I punted on my homework last night," or "I'm punting the study group for the exam." It also means to do something without proper preparation or planning by making it up on the spot, as in "We'll just punt." Similar usage is common in U.S. business, industry, and engineering circles as in declining to tackle a problem or giving others (perhaps better qualified, more ambitious or merely needing the work) the opportunity to shine or fail.

thread_title: Pop 100

message: Pass: The article meets the requirements, but doesn't read like a very pleasant article. It's very nice the way it is, but I offer several suggestions that are based on personal preference:
* Streamline your writing, make some compound sentences alongside shorter statements. The way it is now makes it seem as if each fact was extracted from the reference separately, and makes for very choppy reading. Also, iterations of the title could still be reduced, though it's obvious you did a good job the first time around. 
* I'm not sure if this is standard in these articles, but details like chord progressions and what specific notes the song reach are totally necessary. "Music and structure" delves into too much detail,  and possibly could be merged with the preceding section.
* In "chart performance," make clear a separation between international and domestic results. Use a conjunction (probably "However") or make it a new paragraph. Also, any information on why it was such a failure? 
* Muller seems significant enough to warrant a parenthetical clause describing her profession. (...Muller, a prominent British music video director.)
That's all, I don't have much to say because the article is very good. I think the sections are short, but not void of content, meaning I think the two chart sections could be merged somehow, the aforementioned detail could be cut, and overall the writing could use a massage (but that's always the case).

Talk:St Stephens, Hertfordshire

message: Does this page really need to exist? It describes a "former village" which is now a suburb of St Albans. If that's all that can be said about it, I don't think it's notable enough to deserve its own page.
And how does St Stephens relate to the nearby St Stephen, Hertfordshire? --David Edgar 17:53, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: St Stephen is the ancient parish. It was partly within the borough of St Albans and mostly outside. In 1894 the part within the borough ceased to be part of the parish. As an added complication the former part of the parish in the borough appears to be known as St Stephen's. This is a small area and probably doesn't require its own article. It should be covered in the St Albans article unless there is more to say that will fit there. MRSC (talk) 13:03, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
