Talk:Starflight: The Plane That Couldn't Land

message: * Deleted scene?
A friend once referenced a scene in this movie where the old lady (whose name I cannot remember,) set the connecting tube ablaze by lighting a cigarette while halfway through and not as described here (or seen in the VHS copy of the film, titled Starflight One.)  Can anyone confirm this? Jkp1187 02:39, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

message: How do you cite NASA using one tank over another without pictures? ANYONE over 30 who ever watched shuttle launches might have noticed, or might not. 
The other "citation needed" can only be answered by WATCHING THE FILM itself. How do you cite that? Have someone illegally copy that part of the movie onto YouTube and link to it? Violation of Copyright, non? Oui.
wikipolice are a little overzealous in the "citation needed" dept. and use it the way Pee Wee Herman used "I know you are, but what am I?" or the way little kids use "Are we there yet?" or "Why?" It's damned annoying and accomplishes nothing.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.179.22.132 (talk) 05:32, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: citation needed overuse thereof

message: If this movie had enough of a following to be remastered (probably not), they could replace or repair some of the scenes:
* Columbia being launched with unpainted booster tanks
* The XU-5 being shown in motion and Starflight staying still during the line-up for reentry
* The astronaut emerging from the payload bay with the refueling line
* The Columbia landing on a concrete runway with the Thornwall facilities in the background
* Freddie's satellite being launched on a more modern rocket than an Apollo assembly
* The debris coming straight at Starflight rather than at a right angle
* Pete and the airlock tunnel not disappearing into utter black (unless they're just about to go into sunset along their orbit)

COMPANY SEEKS PAYMENT ON MIDWAY AIRLINES LOAN Byline:    FROM STAFF REPORTS A company that loaned $7 million to Midway Airlines is demanding repayment unless a new loan agreement is approved, giving it exclusive options to buy some of the bankrupt carrier's assets. 
Wexford Capital, based in Greenwich, Conn., had agreed to lend Midway $15 million, but had only paid about half that amount by the day after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, when the airline said it would cease operations. 
Wexford declared the note in default and wants the money...
Wexford Capital, a private equity firm involved with Midway Airlines and currently a primary controlling share holder of Republic Airways Holdings, also contributed large sums to this reincarnated airline venture.

I don't get the idea of "adding from" something.
I also don't get "new articles".  Are they recently created, to be created, or ideas added to a list of proposals for articles?
I understand the idea of a queue having a beginning and an end, but not a top or bottom.  "Bottom" must refer to "the bottom of the page", not "the queue in the bottom".  The articles probably aren't removed, just their mention in a list.  To what should they be added?

thread_title: Geology Section

message: I've been working on finding some public domain photos of the river; however, it seems almost impossible to find freely available photos from Nahanni.  I did contact someone on a forum I'm a member of who responded positively to providing photos that could be licensed under the GPDL; however, I have yet to hear back from him.  Anyway, I was thinking that a photo of Virginia Falls would be ideal for the main graphic in the infobox.  A photo of the tufa mounds might be handy for the geology section.  Lastly, I think a photo of one of the canyons, ideally First Canyon with Pulpit Rock, would be also be a suitable photo for the article.  If we could get that photo with some people canoeing or rafting down the river in the photo, it would be a good addition to the Economy section when it is completed.  The rafters/canoers would also provide a good sense of scale to the canyon.
For the course section, a map of the river and its watershed would be handy.  I have seen maps that also show the boundaries of the Park overlayed on the watershed, which I found to be a useful illustration.  I might be able to get my sister to produce some illustrations of some of the geological processes that went into forming some of the distinctive features of the river; although, I suspect they would be more useful in detailed articles on that particular topic.

Talk:Valletta F.C.

message: The article on Valletta F.C. is useful and informative - thanks go to the author for the contribution. However, the standard of English used to write it is very poor throughout and is confusing, misleading and at times incomprehensible. It would be appropriate for the article to be overhauled from top to bottom, perhaps by the author her/himself or someone known by/acceptable to the author with a better command of the language.
As it is, unfortunately, it reads like an amateur piece by a Valletta enthusiast rather than the neutral, authoritative piece on this grand old club that it could and should be.

Talk:Hersey–Blanchard situational theory

message: :A good situational leader is one who can quickly change leadership styles as the situation changes. Most of us attempt to do this in our dealings with people: we try not to get angry with a new employee, and we remind forgetful people. The model doesn't apply only to people in leadership or management positions, all people lead others at work, at play, and at home.
It seems to me that the first sentence assumes that the reader believes this theory. Some people might think that a good leader is one who controls the situation enough to never have to change his or her style. The second sentence assumes that most people try not to get angry with new employees, and that most people remind forgetful people. I think statements like "most" need sources, if I understand Wikipedia well enough. Furthermore, the last statement that "all people lead others" is contrary to many different philosophies on the subject of human choice and it's existence or non-existence.
I'm not sure how I'd like this to read, since I'm not an expert on this subject, but I think there might be some room for improvement along those lines.
This doesnt help me in what i am looking for. I am looing for an article on Situational and inerationist theory based on the theories by- Lewin  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.66.126.13 (talk) 10:46, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

I can persnally vouch for this as I was personally involved in the collecting and removing these items.  The problem is that our museum never did a press release on this project as a couple of bigger things were in progress.  The only reference I can cite is the AFIP Annual Report for CY 2008.  I can also provide photographs of the items, although I don't think that is worth including on the article.
