Talk:Clay Aiken/Archive 11

message: Here are two more proposals, since it appears mediation was unsuccessful:
===With Paulus===
Due to speculation that he is gay, Aiken has been the subject of gay jokes by Conan O'Brien, Kathy Griffin, and Mad TV, among others. While a few communities among his internet fan sites speculate about his sexual orientation , many do not. Aiken denied being gay to Rolling Stone in June 2003, and, when he appeared as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live on February 7, 2004 , he lampooned such speculation in the opening monologue, which featured him as a member of a gay men's chorus.  
One of the most prominent examples of this gossip occurred in January 2006 when ex-green beret turned gay porn actor John Paulus told the National Enquirer and Howard Stern about an alleged sexual encounter he had with Aiken. To date, neither Aiken nor his representatives have acknowledged Paulus' claims, and have instead declined to comment.
===Without===

Talk:Tangela

message: It looks like one of those mcdonalds things, with the sneakers. You know? Ikeepmakingj's, Homfrog 00:39, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I don't think Tangela is any more likely to receive an evolution (or pre-evolution) than Lickitung or Farfetch'd, . In fact even less likely than those two.  Nintendo has previously given pre-evolutions to popular, humanoid, or cute pokemon, such as Pikachu and Clefairy, and new evolutions to Pokemon without establish niches.  For example, the Rock/Ground type Onix, was far less less poopular than Golem until it had the steel element to it. 
However, Tangela already has a niche of being one of the only potent pure-grass types, especially compared to dismal Sunflora.  That is why I delted the speculations that it could have a future evolution.  If you disagree, feel free to tell me so, but if that speculation is re-added without any reasoning whatsoever, I will delete it again. Almighty Rajah 19:30, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:.tar.gz.gpg

message: I wouldn't consider the proposed deletion of this article to be noncontroversial; in fact, I find this relatively useful. I didn't even know that .tar.gz.gpg. is apparently a commonly used "format". If, however, this article overstates the prominence of GPG-ing (?) .tar.gz files, then perhaps it should not exist. Bring this to an AfD vote if necessary. Ardric47 00:52, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: I corrected some errors, removed some minor POV, and added references to the article.  My main qualm is that .tar.gz.gpg is not a file format, it's a file extension.  A .tar.gz.gpg file would be a gpg file format, as only the part after the last period pertains to its current state (assuming that one actually used the utility on that file and didn't just append ".tar, .gz, or .gpg" arbitrarily).

Talk:Eldon, Missouri

message: I just stopped by this Wikipedia entry because the Shady Rest Hotel of Hooterville sitcom fame was based an apparently-defunct Eldon hotel (plus the fact that I happen to be a native Missourian, having been raised in suburban St. Louis).  When I noted that the entire town doesn't even comprise four square miles and has a total population of under 5,000, I was imagining a sort of place that us big-city folk often dismiss as having not much going for it.
Then I read it has not one but TWO newspapers, and THEN I started going through the list of current-as-of-2014 businesses, and was simply floored.  For the list is seemingly endless, with even no less than three concerns that start with Z!  So business is BOOMING in Eldon, apparently!  Thus my apologies to every Eldoner (Eldonite?  Eldonion?) for having assumed otherwise!  [signed] FLORIDA BRYAN  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:3:1000:5B1:9227:E4FF:FEF0:BBDE (talk) 08:05, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Julia Drusi Caesaris

message: I would like to know why the page "Julia Drusi Caesaris" is constantly redirected to the page "Julia Caesar". The daughter of Drusus the Younger was named Julia and was referred to in inscriptions as "Iulia Drusi filia" or "Iulia Drusi Caesaris filia". The name "Julia Caesar" is completely false. The cognomen "Caesar" was worn by the MALE members of the Imperial household. It was never worn by any woman. I just don't know who made up that name of "Julia Caesar". If one wishes to ascertain what I say, just look in the Prosopographia Imperii Romani (PIR) or any other serious and reliable source of information. 
I noticed that many other wikipedia entries concerning members of the Julio-Claudian dynasty contain a lot of false or erroneous information (for instance, Antonia the Elder's full name was NOT Julia (???) Antonia Cretica (???) Major but just Antonia Major; Agrippina the Younger's full name was not Julia VIPSANIA (????) Agrippina Minor and she's called Agrippinilla only in Robert Graves' novels; Domitia Lepida's sister is not named Domitia Lepida Major but just Domitia, etc.).
I suspect some fellow to just make up information about Julio-Claudian family members. It's very sad, because this makes wikipedia a not very reliable source of information on the Web.
209.226.97.4
I couldn't agree more. All the things described above are simply harmful to Wikipedia's credibility as a source. And what a struggle it was removing the fictitious name "HELEN" (taken seemingly from Robert Graves).
81.190.70.164.
Regarding the move... Copy-pasting the content is not a way to move an article. The [move] button is. This way the history of edits won't get lost. But since the target article already exists, I believe only an admin can do it. You can request such a move on WP:RM. For now, I'm reverting; hopefully for the last time. --Misza13 T C 12:10, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

message: LVS does not necessarily merge transistors. I think it depends on the rules, but certain kits provide rules where even the fingering is checked as opposed to the total width only (if I'm reading correctly what was written). However, I do not think that this example is necessary, to be honest. More interesting would be pointers to some algorithms for LVS, if someone decides to take up on writing a proper LVS tool since every and each one of them I had a misfortune to be using was, plainly put, almost useless and pretty poorly written ... hard, deep stare is very often more useful than LVS ...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.62.30.17 (talk) 16:41, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

message: The changes to the article include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:
# Added the  information box along with citations for some of the content in the information box.
# Added a  template for the statement about the game demos.
# Added citations, and improved the citations for certain existing statements.
# Added information about the story of the PoG game.
# Added information about the role of the PoG game and the confirmation of the game-making capabilities of the Coldstone game engine.
# Removed the statement about the game likely being abandoned - this statement sounds too much like an opinion.
# Added hyperlinks for an Ambrosia Software FAQ and related Ambrosia Software Web boards to the External links section.
# Changed certain names to be like adjectives.
# Made certain grammatical changes, such as adding "the" before certain names.
Possible improvements for the article:
* For the statement about game demos being available, would it please be possible to find a reference that does not raise copyright issues?
* For the statement about the sale of game licenses, might it be possible to find a better reference?

Talk:Fear of Pop

message: There's no reason for "Fear of Pop" and "Fear of Pop Volume 1" to be two different articles.  "Fear of Pop" is not a band or grouping of musicians, it is a Ben Folds solo album.
"Fear of Pop Volume 1" is considered his first solo album and all the other musicians are merely guests. Folds' name appears nowhere on the cover or spine but that is either an example of creative crediting (such as the many other albums such as Led Zeppelin's fourth album) or it suggests that "Fear of Pop" is a psuedonym.
Totally disagree with this merge.  It's ridiculous to merge a band and an album's entry because they've only released one album at this point in time.  Nowhere, anywhere, EVER is it stated that Fear of Pop is a Ben Folds solo project.  Period.  If anything, it's a Caleb Southern/Ben Folds effort. I'm taking off the merge label, as it is unwarranted.
