First is the "Political map of Uruguay" - redundant (two other maps already present), off-topic (art. not about political divisions), second is the top "Topics of Uruguay" temp. - this duplicates the bottom navbox, and takes up space that could be used for informative images.

Talk:Bumblebee

message: Why is the phrase describing this one specific type of bee, Cuckoo Bees,  in the first section of the article? That seems like something that should be further down since it's only about one type of bee on this article with a much broader scope.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.86.200.134 (talk) 04:17, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Because there are 30 species of cuckoo bumblebees; this is a decidedly non-trivial portion of the genus, and they exhibit major differences from other bumblebee species. It would be a serious omission if the introduction suggested that all bumblebees are social, or gather pollen, etc., without acknowledging the many species that are exceptions to the norm.

thread_title:  Unnecessary advertising 

message: I don't want to veer into the realm of original research, but it occurred to me that there might be an alternate etymology worth considering for "bumble."
In trying to understand the meaning of the German word "himbeere" (raspberry), I discovered that "wimple" (relating to peach-fuzz, or short soft hairs) is a likely root for the "him" prefix .  With this in mind, it seems plausible to me, given the morphology of bumblebees, that bumble may derive not from an onomatopoeic behavior, but from the soft hairy exterior (wimple-biene -> himple-biene -> humble-biene -> bumble-biene, similarly to wimple-beere -> himple-beere -> him-beere).  Has anyone come across something similar that might be "source-able" in this regard?

thread_title:  Etymology 

message: (UNDER THE SECTION 'COMMUNICATION AND SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR')
Research at Queen Mary University of London, 'Do Bumble Bees Play?', has recently demonstrated that bumble bees exhibit behaviour associated with object play, drawing intrinsic reward from the rolling of wooden balls with no apparent incentive. As well as this, the bees showed a preference for areas they had associated with balls being available to roll, further suggesting that they draw enjoyment from this action and may have a higher sentience than first thought.

replies: text: The sentence says "in real terms", so you are correct that while the half-penny existed and refers to a smaller unit of the currency, it was worth more than our current penny at the time. That is, compared to what a today-penny buys you (e.g. one 25th of a 25p Freddo chocolate bar), the half-penny would have bought you more than that at the time when it still existed.

Talk:AIR FM Rainbow

message: FM Rainbow Channel is not exclusive to Mumbai. Rather, All India Radio has two different nomenclatures for its chain of FM Radio stations. Those FM stations which are operating in Metros i.e., Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai are called FM Gold, other FM stations which are operating in other parts of the country are called FM Rainbow.
Amruthavarshini, the first exclusive classical music channel of All India Radio is operating from Bangalore on 100.1 MHz.
The above information is not accurate.
AIR operates two FM Radio stations in Mumbai - FM Rainbow (107.1 MHz) and FM Gold (100.7 MHz)
The difference between the two stations is in its programming and content. FM Gold is solely dedicated to old songs - songs from the 70s/80s and the decades before that, while FM Rainbow does not restrict itself to any particular era. However, one may find  more contemporary songs on FM Rainbow.
FM Rainbow was earlier called FM Metro, the name was changed to FM Rainbow in 2002.
FM Rainbow transmits praograms 24 hrs a day in the all the Metros (Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Calcutta). Each Metro has its own FM Rainbow station.
FM Rainbow operates in mumbai,Kanpur, Bangalore and many other cities as well but the above information " Amruthavarshini, the first exclusive classical music channel of All India Radio is operating from Bangalore on 100.1 MHz."
I m afraid tht the information provided is incorrect it operates in bangalore with 101.3MHz. And as far as my knowledge goes this is the frequency which we can tune in to rainbow in bangalore..... Kalivd 12:04, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

text: The second map showing the confessions in Switzerland during the 18th century after the counter-reformation is now online as well. The borders refer to the confederacy of the ancien regime. The distribution of the religions changed only after 1847 because of the industrialization - people moved around more often and after the foundation of modern Switzerland the right of domicil was introduced. Thus there was significant change in the confessional landscape in industrialized regions. In the 20th century immigration of catholic workers from Italy was also a reason why the majority changed again in favor of catholicism.Sidonius 06:57, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

A high degree of overlap between these two articles seems undesirable because of the work required to maintain duplicated content. Is there a case for some rationalisation ? One possibility is to substantially trim the article Fiordland (about the region), to focus it on the boundary of the region, and relevant statistical content such as Demographics and economy.

Talk:Harald Juhnke

message: I Wonder who really "selected" this selected filmography. The article in the german wiki contains more than 120 entries in this category, but the english wiki only mentions the LEAST significant roles (except the lead in "Hauptmann von Köpenick"). Juhnke started as a full professional supporting actor, who could play everything, even the worst parts. He was reknown as "man for all occasions". This part of his career included mostly comedy, entertaining (musical) movies, some criminal movies and even movies about WWII. Most of these productions before 1975 can be considdered as "not exactly artistic" (Juhnke himself stated, that he was only interested in the money). Towards the end of the 1960s the quality of those productions improved considderably (to mention the "Lausbubengeschichten" movies, the "Pauker" movies and the "Edgar Wallace" Movies), so those productions might be comparable to more recent entertaining movies like "Police Academy" or the "Ghostbusters"/ SNL Franchise. Even though the roles of the 50s to 70s show the majority of Junkes works IN NUMBERS they can only illustrate the devellopment of the european movie during that periode not the developmet of Juhnkes work. Obviously Juhnke took his way to leading performances over the television (this might refer to his well known alcohol addiction, because of which most producers refused to rely on him, so offering him only small roles or quickly to finish TV productions). So those TV Shows should consequently be mentioned. The Article mentions the appearance in Schtonk!, why is this missing in the filmography? Also missing is Conversation with the beast and "Der Trinker" (after the novel of the same name).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.20.39.146 (talk) 14:57, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
