thread_title:  Using Parser Functions to merge templates 

message: Hi, I lovvvvvvve this article (haha just bookmarked it), and am often here for codes to use on Talk Page.. I am here to find a list of thumbs ups and downs plus emojis' codes .. and frown smileys too. There were other Google results other than the "Thumbs!" blank page that I'll try. I was really surprised this page has Smileys but not any Frowns. Is it permissible for the public to edit this page, and say, include thumbs ups and downs and frownies too? For use on Talk Pages not on Articles of course haha! Peace. From Peter a.k.a. Vid2vid (talk) 22:12, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

Template talk:X mark

message: Created this template to insert a X mark picture (  ) (also known as, cross mark, ballot X, etc) as a inline character, by using a short template tag (  ) instead of this big IMAGE tag (  ), which is harder to remember also. Main intention is to use this, when a real picture is needed or preferable. Though using a simple (capital) "X" letter is best, faster & common alternative. Many web browser software are still unable to display the unicode (heavy Ballot X - cross) character ✘ by using the hex html code (✘). ~ Tarikash.
: What are the accessibility implications of using this? How does this affect users of screen reader programs? 
: Before using please consider carefully if using Yes/No might be a clearer option, or otherwise expressing the same information as prose. 
: This template lacks guidance on when best to use or not use it, I hope it can be improved and that people aren't using it when maybe they should not. -- 93.107.157.52 (talk) 23:13, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
Talk:Pocahontas Middle School

message: This article reads like an advertisement for the school, and not an encyclopedia article. I think it's fine for statistics on the success rate of pupils to be published, since it's relevant, but:
"The athletic department at Pocahontas wants to ensure that students are able to express their talents. Pocahontas's athletic department has grown steadily over the years."
"Recently at the Musicale hosted by Busch Gardens, Pocahontas's jazz band took home a grand champion trophy."
The second quotation isn't as bad, since it states a fact about the school that might well be worth making, but the word "Recently" just serves to support my accusation that this page is not only redundant, but a shameless advertisement for some bloody middle school in America.
--User:Ventolin
This article's quality is so bad I'm not even going to try to fix it. It will probably require a complete rewrite to be anything near accurate or encyclopediac.

Not dismissing Lennon's occasional insensitivity to Epstein's sexual orientation, and it's not beyond the realms of possibility, given that they were spending more and more time in the studio and could do what they wanted, and there are jokes and asides in many of their songs.  However, I have analysed this track at length, I've separated out the vocals and at no point does Lennon, or indeed anyone, sing "Rich fag Jew."

Talk:Get Smart, Again!

message: I don't recall Demente's goal to be anything other than extorting money from the US Government, but I've re-written this passage to remove the ridiculous punctuation and to match the style of the rest of the paragraph.  If anyone can corroborate that Demente states his plan to ruin the weather so that people will have to buy his books (I removed the "KAOS bookstores" segment because I'm nearly positive no such thing was mentioned), please respond here.  Conversely, if you can corroborate that that was NOT his ultimate plan, please respond here or remove the passage from the article.  I may be able to see the film again sometime in the next week or so, but someone else may already have the information available. Canonblack 12:40, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Demente's master plan

message: Because 23skidoo didn't provide sources (neither did I when I created the article, I'm not judging), I can't check to see if Get Smart, Again! was really any impetus to get the FOX series produced.  The two productions had no producers in common, and are separated by a gap of six years.  It seems a bit of a stretch to say that a barely seen TV movie was instrumental in getting the series made.  If anyone has a source to verify this, please post.  Otherwise, I think it best to remove the paragraph and assume that the two are simply independent productions based on the original 1965-1972 series. Canonblack 12:47, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Coot

message: Information for incorporation: https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2019/12/coot-chicks-feathers-fancy/604234/  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.33.126.24 (talk) 16:01, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

message: Coots in the Central flyway of North America have been heard making a soft sound, the volume of humans speaking just above a whisper.  Such a voice could be heard, for example, in flocks of several hundred, while resting in lakes, between migratory movements.  This voice tends to evoke a feeling of contentment.  The sound might be the origin of the name "coot" since the human voice might speak this word to imitate this bird's voice.  This eighth-of-a-second report is repeated in the flock about 4 voices per second, creating a concert of soft musical coot voices.  This concert of Coot voices might be considered among the most enjoyable sounds in nature, and from our Avian brothers/sisters.  The quality of this music gives not only the individual bird a voice but seemingly the flock as a whole.  One might say, comparable to the effect of seeing one bird fly versus seeing the entire flock of birds flying together.  It's possible that the brief voices are designed not to over-lap one-another since a flock this size could easily generate a constant volume of collective voice.  Canada Geese, for example, are more likely to generate such a collective solid concert sound.  This submitted by Jeff S. Wolfe, (Biology, University of Central Missouri), volunteer for the US Geological Survey, Missouri, USA.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:5B0:2D43:B8F8:A82A:6E96:715:A463 (talk) 09:57, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

message: This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force in an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed.
*The lead needs to be further organised. Two solid paragraphs would be a good idea, with more information on his conflicts with the king and perhaps some coverage of his historiographical legacy.
*Sourcing. This article's biggest problem is its paucity of sources, several paragraphs are unsourced including information which perhaps should be. The sources are avaliable, they are listed at the bottom of the page. In particular the later life section.
*It would be a nice addition to see an infobox, perhaps with the shield of arms as the image if no image of the man is avaliable. This would help introduce the man.
I will check back in no less than seven days. If progress is being made and issues are being addressed, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted (such a decision may be challenged through WP:GAR). If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAN.
