Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Gordon James Klingenschmitt

message: Read the interesting Checkuser report confirming the identities of the Vandals.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/USMC_Padre 
Thank God that decent admins finally prevailed to halt posting of his private information, and stop the repeated disparaging comments (with foul language) against this subject of a biography of a living person, repeatedly defamed by members who claimed to be Naval officers (and chaplains?) sadly defending their anti-Christian persecution of his faith.  This checkuser report offers more sad proof of rampant dishonesty in the Navy Chaplain Corps, and more evidence that Klingenschmitt was right all along.
ChaplainReferee 20:42, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The fact that vandals (and, frankly, for what they did: criminals) attacked him does not vindicate his position in any way.  In fact, I strongly suspect he does not want an article on his case largely because any objective take on the subject shows that his accusations were false and he was justly convicted. 76.189.206.11 19:23, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Baumkuchen

message: The information on who invented the Baumkuchen is highly disputed, I feel that it is wrong to attribute it to one person in particular. Traditionally the Baumkuchen is associated with the town of Salzwedel, not with Berlin.

message: It is a common misconception that the name 'Baumkuchen' comes from the rings. Instead, the name comes from being made on a 'Baum' which is the name for the rotating tube that the doug is baked on.

Talk:Leveling seat

message: The method is not unique for Norway. I am a Swede, and incidently know that it is used in Sweden, too, since 1970.
I suspect, but do not know, that it is used elsewhere, too.  Now, here in en:wikipedia some people seem to try to separate theoretical models (which they classify within the :Category:Voting systems or its subcategories) on the one hand, and actual implementations placed under :Category:Electoral systems) on the other.  I am not sure this be good or even tenable; but if it is to be upheld, one probably must distinguish more clearly between the method in itself, and its various applications.
The most closely related theoretic concept I found by browsing was the article Additional Member System.  I provided cross-linking with that. However, that article seems to assume that the vote necessarily is split into two more or less independent votes, one for persons and one for parties. This is not quite the way the leveling seats system works in Scandinavia; at least not in Sweden.  I personally suspect that the Additional Member System article is fairly influenced by some "actual details of implementation" in some other countries, and that this is the reason for this description.  If so, that article needs a bit globalisation, before a merge with the "theoretical part" of thuis article is possible.
However, perhaps the Mixed member proportional representation is a better candidate. There seems to be some confusion whether or not these terms are synonymous, though. I'll add cross-links for this, too.-JoergenB 21:00, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Salt lamp

message: I started to remove the bad science from this article, but if I continue this process to its logical conclusion then there will be nothing left but the first sentence. The stuff about humidity doesn't make sense. First the lamp attracts moisture - fair enough - but then it evaporates it again, so the net humidity in the room doesn't change*. So actually this lamp does nothing but glow, like any other lamp. I'm not arguing for deletion, but does anyone object if I take an axe to the article? --Heron (talk) 19:08, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding the statement, but any Himalayan Salt Lamp would be from the Himalayan Salt... I haven't really seen any other type of salt lamps before. Maybe all of this needs to be moved to a different article as Himalayan Salt Lamp, otherwise, I think it's more implied. As far as the color, the natural color is covered in the salt article. Burleigh2 (talk) 21:23, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: What I'm saying is that we need references for even the very basics, or at least the information in this article should be consistent with the articles that it links to.  Salt lamps from Poland are being marketed as European Salt Lamps.  Salt from Poland is not being marketed as Himalayan Salt.  Maybe we should just get rid of the article, adding a bit about salt lamps to Himalayan salt?  --Ronz (talk) 00:53, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

text: No arguments? Great! So, how do we move it into another article aside from just copy/pasting? Or is that the only option?

replies: text: That's what I was wondering how (or what the proper redirect option was since it was being added to another section). When I looked at the "move" link, it said not to delete it for the reasons that you said, but I didn't know how to redirect it when it was being added into another section instead of changing to a different name. Now that someone else said it and I thought about how to redirect it, redirecting to the Him. Salt category makes just as much sense (especially since it can't be redirected to a section in that page, which is what I wasn't sure about). Thanks, Ronz!

message: I would say, since there are sources to support the tales of strange plant mutations in the forest, such as tree branches growing the wrong way and plants showing gigantish, the tales of a "forest of wonders" aren't really "unsubstantiated".

message: Surely these are examples of the zero indefinite article:
:She is in hospital. 
:He was taken to prison.
as they mean the same as
:She is in a hospital.
:He was taken to a prison.
i.e. an unspecified hospital/prison rather than a particular (known or previously identified) one. Ben Finn 21:15, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

message: 1) Removed language that talked directly to reader using "you".
2) Reworded sentence about "the" disappearing, per Petitphoque.
3) Removed third example "We went to bed" since it means neither "We went to the bed" nor "We went to a bed", but uses "bed" in the sense of "sleep".
4) I agree with Ben Finn that the first (now two) examples are sentences where an indefinite article is replaced, not a definite article. However I did not rework the article to that point.

However, at the time Geneva was an independent Republic, founded by John Calvin (Republic : 1541 - 1798), then it was part of France (1798 - 1813) and only became a Swiss canton in 1815, 11 years after Jacques Necker's death.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.199.59.154 (talk) 16:22, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
