message: This really needs work. What does Song of the Year mean? Most would assume the Grammy award, but it certainly did not win over Bridge Over Troubled Water in 1971. (Nor was it or the group nominated for a Grammy in 1971.)
Many of the entries in the column "Award" are poorly vague.  
Suggestion: add a column, like other wiki award sections, rather than cobble organization names [incompletely] in the Award column.  
I feel bad criticizing without offering to do the task, but I'm not an authority. I did examine all the Grammy Award winners for 1969-1973 before barking here FWIW.2600:6C56:6600:1ECF:5876:61D1:AD70:7B9F (talk) 00:26, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

message: Should the WCAG Samurai links be maintained?  Or should they be frozen to an archive from 2008 or so?
The WCAG Samurai site seems to have been hijacked. The content is still there, but it's now hidden behind a load of SEO sales content - which isn't even accessible.
Given the poor achievement of the WCAG generally, I'd like to see the role of the Samurai much expanded here (WCAG itself is not a good goal for reaching accesibility), but not at the cost of plugging whoever is now running the site. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:08, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: WCAG 2 is the current standard. Levels A and AA even have been integrated into the European standard EN 301 549. WCAG Samurai was one person's crusade and isn't more than a historical footnote now. Even Joe Clark no longer maintains it. ChristopheS (talk) 09:31, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

message: I am a Wikipedia editor, I am also a co-author of WCAG3 and the creator of the APCA. It was brought to my attention that there was an entry on this page that did not accurately reflect the draft status of WCAG3. I updated the entry to correctly reflect the current status, which is a working draft in development and not an official recommendation.
The concerns raised by those who brought the issue to my attention was that the way the entry had been written appeared to sound as if WCAG3 was the current recommendation.  Myndex talk   20:01, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Jody Weiner

message: A tag has been placed on :Jody Weiner, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. 
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

replies: text: But we need some independent, reliable sources like book reviews or interviews in a newspaper, magazine or something similar. The sources you have are just links to his book's web site, his publisher, or a club he belongs to (that link is broken, by the way). We need evidence that someone who isn't directly connected to him finds him notable. Realkyhick 21:41, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've cleaned this up a bit, and added some links and sources. It is clear that this is a legit published author, who has gotten soem notice, but nothing like bestseller status. Whether thsi subject is notabel enough might be debated. There don't seem to be more useful sources findable via a google search. If anyone knows of print sources, citatiosn would be very useful. DES (talk) 17:15, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: A Google search comes up pretty empty, at least for relevant results. Notability is still very much in question. I'll give this a few more days, but if we can't come up with some more, it may be time for an AfD nomination. It's certainly beyond speedy-delete criteria at this point, though.

thread_title:  Possible link to Giuseppe Moscati's items on “Himetop – The History of medicine topographical database” 

message: "His scientific research notwithstanding, Moscati remained true to his faith his entire life."  Another way of writing this could be "Despite his Catholic faith, he engaged in scientific research".  I hope this indicates the problem I see in the text.  If the word "notwithstanding" is meant to imply that there is an inherent contradiction between the Catholic faith and scientific research, it is not true, and an unnecessary provocation.  If it is not meant to imply that, could the original writer find a way to state it to  make his or her point more clearly without the other implication?  --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 14:00, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Free agent (disambiguation)

message: Any one know if someone says free agent any one knows what it means?
---------------------------------------------------
3/3/09 - It's something to do with a sports term, but in England I've known people to use it meaning single.
Also, although this is only a slight change, I wanted to explain my reasons for it. I've search for "Free Agents" twice in the past week looking for the recent British sitcom of that name, and after being redirected to the "free agent" sports article I thought the disambiguation page was more appropriate than the automatic redirect. I hope this is acceptable.
