replies: text: A couple of years ago I put the lowercase template into the title metadata.  This is because the album is titled fear, not Fear.

message: It seems to me that the links in the table headed “list of Winter Olympics games” should link to the pages for the respective Games, rather than to the host city pages.         The geographical cities would be the appropriate link if the table were a list of host cities, but it isn’t, and most visitors to such a table will be looking for information about the Winter Olympics.

thread_title: Table links

message: the medal table contains three times Germany. One is for West-Germany, one for East-Germany and one for the united Germany since 1990. It makes no sense to count it not alltogether, Olympics should not be about past politics. Both  East and West Germany is Germany. The medal winners were Germans. If an East German athlet won a medal it was a German. After 1990 the same athlet was a citizen of Germany. If a West German won a medal he did not change his citizenship, he did not even need to get a new passport! In This medal table you count him on the West German list. All what is now Germany has been completely West- or East Germany. This medal table here needs to be fairly corrected. If You count all german medals in the Germany list, then it is apparent that Germany is number one of all nations in the winter Olympics. This should correctly be shown on this medal table. The same correction needs the summer Olympic medal table.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by RomanNies (talk • contribs) 23:21, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It is factually incorrect that a single German team won all the medals that three separate teams won. The IOC used three different abbreviations; FRG, DDR, and the modern GER. The US team does not include the Puerto Rico team even though Puerto Rico is a US territory; we don't combine them. The same goes for Germany.

Talk:M*A*S*H (film)

message: An editor has been attempting to add an extensive sentence about the use of "fuck" in non-mainstream films.  As this is an article about a mainstream film, and the entire point is that the use of "fuck" in M*A*S*H was the first occasions of its use in a mainstream film, I have been reverting.  However, as the information is interesting, if not directly relevant, I have converted it to a footnote.
This is, after all, not an article about the language of films in general, or one about non-mainstream films, or one about the use of "fuck" in general society, but an article about one specific film and its use of the word as a first-time incident in a specific medium.

message: The article says "With help from Radar, the Swampmen sneak a microphone into a tent where the couple are making love and broadcast their passion over the camp's PA system, embarrassing them badly and earning Houlihan the nickname "Hot Lips."
Ok, it's 2023 now. Do people still say "making love" when it really should be something like "having sex"? "making love" is a euphemism for "having sex" of even "fucking" that seems archaic and perhaps even Victorian. Why not change it to "having sex"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.233.56.35 (talk) 18:26, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:The Catcher in the Rye

message: I think it would be beneficial to add a themes section to the article as the themes discussed in the book are incredibly important to why the book has been so successful.  The themes are currently discussed in the plot section, but I believe they would be better suited in their own section.  If someone were looking for an explanation of the themes of the book they would find them difficult to locate without reading through the entire plot.  Therefore, in an effort to make the information more easily accessible to readers, there should be a separate themes section for the article.

message: Billy, I have restored the  tag that you removed.
The plot summary section of the article is far too long at 1,136 words, greatly in excess of the 400 to 700 words recommended by the MOS:PLOTLENGTH and WP:NOVELPLOT policies. Plot summaries are precisely that – summaries of limited length for the convenience of the reader. Summaries of excessive length burden the reader looking for the gist of the book.
Dragging Taylor Swift into it in your edit summary is irrelevant (even assuming for the benefit of the doubt that there really are longer "plot" summaries of her songs at Wikipedia – I won't waste my time checking your claim). Songs don't have "plots" but if descriptions of her songs truly exceed 1,136 words, as you claim, then you have the option of trimming them.
Please do not remove the tag from the article again as this is an inarguable example of Wikipedia policy being ignored. It is why the  template was created. Spideog (talk) 17:53, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Original research? 

message: I hope that I will remember to come back here to check up on this, as it seems that Tolkien Scholarship is taking up more and more of my time, despite the fact that I am trying to become a Cognitive Scientist and Cyberneticist (although, I already am an Art Historian, and managed to study with Joseph Campbell for three months in 1985).
I just wanted to point out regarding Campbell and Tolkien's work.
Joseph Campbell makes a point of saying that Mytho-History does not need to be consistent, that there are many truths, and that they often contradict the factual history upon which the myths have been founded (And I have seen experimental demonstrations of this where myths arise concerning events that have a deep impact upon our psyche). Take 9-11, for instance. There are many stories that contradict each other. Yet there is surely an actual history, which may not be known by any one person, or by any persons at all.
So, research on the History of Tolkien's Canon should include everything that he has written on Middle-earth, contradictory or not.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthew R Bailey (talk • contribs) 03:59, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Emotion

message: How common is it to distinguish between "protein hormones" (such as follicle-stimulating hormone, parathyroid hormone, prolactin and thyroid-stimulating hormone) and "peptide hormones" depending on the length of the amino acid chain? As the article is written now (and many others, and :Category:Peptide hormones), "peptide hormones" more or less seems to cover all amino acid chains with hormonal activity regardless of length. If this is indeed the case, it would be helpful to point out in the article that some peptide hormones aren't peptides in the narrow sense. If the reverse is true, a clearer distinction should be made in this article (although I guess both could still be described in the same article) and the category renamed to "Peptide and protein hormones" or somesuch. //Essin (talk) 20:44, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Peptide hormones or protein hormones? 

message: Right now the article states this:
"When a peptide hormone binds to a receptor on the surface of the cell, a second messenger appears in the cytoplasm, which triggers signal transduction leading to the cellular responses."
But this makes it sound as if the second messenger magically just "appears" in the cytoplasma. This can not possibly be. Biology does not magically conjure molecules out of nowhere.
So I suggest it should be reworded, e. g. briefly mention HOW the second messenger is effected within the signal cascade - be it release from some depot, or some enzyme that acts and so forth, rather than
assuming magic here. 2A02:8388:1641:4980:480D:4D4E:3D5F:4D8C (talk) 13:09, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

There are OTHER lists in Wikipedia that would need to be copied to or merged with this page. Will do it when I have time. 
Also seemed like a good idea to put date of actress's first film -- maybe also last if the actress has passed away and hence last film is known for sure. 
May also be a good idea to have lists of superstars, or superstars by decade, discussion of how actress ideals changed decade by decade, that sort of thing. This page could use a LOT of work.
