Talk:LandAmerica Financial Group

message: I added the names of the subsidiaries and the history of the name LandAmerica, which is probably more interest to the average reader than the factoid of the corporation now bearing that name having been incorporated in 1991, when Commonwealth, Transnation and Lawyers Title were three separate operations.  I'm reluctant to add much more at this stage, as there may not be much left to say about LandAmerica once Fidelity National finishes gobbling them up.  [I'm assuming that given LandAmerica's abysmal figures from recent quarters, regulators will indeed approve the acquisition, notwithstanding its significant impact on market share.]  Xrlq (talk) 16:55, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Lance Inc.

message: Part of this article sounded like it was written by Lance and trying to make exclusive use of the term "Nabs."  The term originated with Nabisco (note that "Nabs" is just a short variation of "Nabisco").  In my area, it is certainly used as a term for any company's snack crackers.  Definitely not just Lance.  If anything, when I hear the term I associate it with Nabisco, just like I think of Xerox when somebody refers to a Ricoh copier as a "xerox machine."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.66.239.141 (talk) 16:01, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

Links to this or that name can make up the difference, such as LaSalle Bank Building would probably then link to B.O.A. Building page!   Probably doesn't matter which way and you can prob find examples on Wiki of the opposite as well.   Good Article, though!  Thanks!  And Locking-Up will forever be a Wiki dilema, too!

message: In March 2009 Consumer Reports magazine tested the Kymco People 150, Yamaha Vino 125 and Vespa LX 150 in the 125-150 cc class, as well as the Honda Rebel, Kawasaki Ninja 250 in the 250 cc class and the Honda Ruckus and Motorino Allegro int the 50 cc class. The lead of the 125-150 section was, "The 150cc Kymco People and Vespa LX 150 were the best overall scooters."<P>While Consumer Reports is a credible source, this was their first ever attempt at testing any two wheeled vehicles. They made mistakes like choosing only a 3,600 foot track, which is why they never got above 86 mph with the Ninja 250. But the main issue is the tiny handful of scooters and motorcycles they tested. This makes claims such as that the Kymco tied for first place a little absurd; it tied for 1st out of only 3 scooters.<P>Individual data points from the CR test are probably reliable, but their overall conclusions are dubious, especially when many other media offer more comprehensive and rigorous reviews. --Dbratland (talk) 22:30, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Article (publishing)

message: I'm adding "Subheading and Section Header" to the main page. I love Wikipedia and when Wikipedia pages are not complete, it is shameful. If someone doesn't like my edit, fine. Then fix it and make it better. --MikeWest (talk) 18:20, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  I'm adding "Subheading and Section Header" to the main page. (Update: It was deleted.) 

message: Some articles will have several bold words at the beginning of multiple paragraphs and these bold words are called subheadings or section headers. Subheadings not only help the reader to quickly glance through an article and get an idea of what the article is about, but subheadings also simply help the reader, to read a long article. If a long article has no subheadings, it can be tedious for the reader, to read the article because multiple paragraphs, one after the other, can make it difficult to read. That is, subheadings, for people like myself (and others), make a long article more manageable to read. In fact, the words, Headline, Byline, Lead, Body or running text, Subheadings or Section headers and Conclusion on the main "Article (publishing)" Wikipedia page are all subheadings of this Wikipedia web page.
----
I hope this helps some writers around the world. I know that after a 15 to 25 minute Google search to figure out the name, subheading, that it is very important that this Wikipedia page should list that "subheadings," can be part of any article. If this Wikipedia page already had "Subheading" as part of this Wikipedia page, I would not have had wasted another 1/2 hour to an hour, trying to get the main "Article" Wikipedia page revised. Of course, due to the short sightedness of some of the staff of Wikipedia and to making it worse for Wikipedia users, this revision did not take place.

and paragraphs like this breach so many guidelines:
In 2014, Morrison published parts of an epic polemical poem-in-progress, Odour of Devon Violet. The poem -attributed to 'Ivor Mortise', a fictitious alter-ego- satirises contemporary austerity culture using the leitmotiv of Devon Violet, a cheap perfume particularly popular during the Thirties and Forties, as an olfactory metaphor for the retro-rhetoric, and synthetic nostalgia (a sort of austerity nostalgia or 'nosterity'/ 'austalgia', as Morrison refers to it) for a pre-welfare state Britain, promulgated by politicians. The work draws on the period polemical works of Christopher Caudwell (Illusion and Reality, Studies in a Dying Culture etc.), Edmund Wilson (To the Finland Station) and Cyril Connolly (Enemies of Promise), as well as focusing on other key cultural figures of the inter-war years, such as W.H. Auden and George Orwell.
