Talk:Scattered Islands in the Indian Ocean

message: I am pretty sure Rodrigues is not a SIIO. From the article: "They are collectively administered by the prefect of the département of the Réunion on behalf of the government of France, under the authority of the ministry for oversea possessions." Rodrigues is a very clear dependency of Mauritius. Dysprosia 01:40, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: Yeah, it's not an island group as a rule (it's a submerged atoll), but, as stated on the article itself, France claims it as part of SIIO, so therefore I will update the piece on it to say that. If there are any objections please let me know and I'll revert it. --Maurice45 (talk) 13:44, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Double feature

message: This is a good start and most of the information is correct. But double bill and supporting feature are used interchangeably when they are actually two different forms of distribution and exhibition. 
The main distinction was an A picture (top billed feature) was sold on a percentage basis and a B picture (supporting feature) was sold for a flat rate. The support feature was also given far less weight in advertising, especially in newspaper adds.  In contrast, a double bill was a way for a distributor to combine two features, each given equal billing in advertising, in order to sell them on a percentage basis. 
Any suggestions on how to address this with the current article?  Jonathan Wild (talk) 09:12, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

message: This is a nice short article, B Touch, but it does tend to focus disproportionately on how the advent of the double feature lead to the end of two-reel short subjects.  Perhaps some of this should be moved to short film.  It would also be good to hear a little about the decline of double features as well.  This article seems to be written from a US persepective; hopefully someone can give it a broader geographic scope.--Pharos 21:13, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a start, and it's better than nothing. I'm (frantically) working on the Our Gang article and writing articles for all fo my redlinks; most of my knowledge of double features comes from the references to it in Our Gang-related write-ups. Hopefully someone can work to expand the article; I'd like to learn about the extent of the double feature beyond America as well. --b. Touch 22:05, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Terri Schiavo case/Archive 1

message: Since assisted nutrition and hydration were not considered medical treatment when this woman collapsed, I think trying to remove it from her now is a deprivation of her rights. This case is a wake up call to everyone to put in writing the types of treatment they think they would like to continue if they become incapacitated. Don't assume you can trust someone to carry out your wishes if they include being nourished. Write it down and make sure your family and friends know.
I think this page is awfully slanted towards the 'right to life' side of the debate with authoritative and definative statments of her cognitive abilities wich are disputed and have not been proven in court. --Lazarias 01:15, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

:Heh, although that makes sense in a weird way, I'm certain that putting that in the article would cause heads to explode. So now that it's over, can people start relaxing now instead of trying to propagate ideals? Remember, this is not a discussion about what's right or wrong or who is POV. Just get the facts down as they have been stated by authorities. If some doctors have stated that she may benefit from therapy: how much do they believe she might benefit, how did they reach that conclusion (from what material)? What newspaper has speculated on "Michael Schiavo's possible monetary motives"? What newspaper has clamped down on the parents? Quote and reference, quote and reference. Do not even hint at any speculation unless some other entity of importance said it, and you can produce a reference. Otherwise it is POV by definition. fbjon ^^ 4649 20:59, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/David Gerard, Neutrality, Cyrius

message: Our social policies are not a suicide pact.  --Jimbo Wales.
This echos The Constitution is a not a suicide pact, a phrase variously ascribed to Justice Robert Jackson, Justice Arthur Goldberg, and even to Justice John Marshall himself.   It is a bit of an unfortunate turn of phrase, since in the minds of liberals such as myself it does not have an inspiring history, having been more frequently used as a justification to trample the Bill of Rights than as a call to judicial common sense.   Most recently it has been used to defend military tribunals and torture, for example.
Be that as it may, Jimbo no doubt meant it as a call to common sense.  But what does the principle mean for Wikipedia?  For one,  Jimbo isn't constrained by the "social policies".  Nobody contests that, of course.   Anybody else?  Are all administrators free to override policy at need?  Or only some?  If only some, which?  It would be nice to be able to keep out of their way, if only not to waste time protesting when they push policy aside.  --BM 20:51, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Indo-Western clothing

message: As far as I know, Indo-Western clothing is not a commonly used term. Using the prefix "Indo" could be felt as discriminatory by other South Asians. I believe that the commonest term is now South Asian, as being more inclusive. 
The mixing of modern Western and traditional Indian/South Asian styles is deserving of notice, but this article may not be the best way to notice it. It was created by the Reetriwaj linkspammer, who is trying to drum up business for his not-yet-opened shop.
I hope that there are other folks out there who have some knowledge of South Asian fashion and would be prepared to work on this article -- especially retitling it. My knowledge is purely theoretical. I tried ordering salwar suits from the web and eBay and after being disappointed multiple times, I ended up sewing my own. I have clicked through dozens of online shops and have a fair knowledge of what's offered. But that is not at all the same thing as living in India or Pakistan and seeing people on the street. Zora 00:06, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: The anon editor whom I have dubbed "the Reetriwaj linkspammer" very much objects to being characterized as such and has been editing this talk page to remove any references to his linkspamming spree. 
While articles are fair game, it is not Wikipedia custom to edit other people's contributions to talk pages. If anon editor objects to being called "the linkspammer", he can take a username and enter a dialogue with other editors. That means leaving my contribution intact, and adding a comment explaining why my characterization is inaccurate or inapt. 
He asserts that he created this article without linking to his page, and after checking the article history, I find that he's right. However, that doesn't change the fact that he was aggressively linking his page to various articles, restoring links after they had been removed. Whether or not it's fair to bring that up in the context of THIS page is a good question.
Perhaps the best way to resolve this would be for the anon editor to take a username and start making useful edits. I'd be happy to forget anything that happened earlier in that case. Frex, we could use some articles on sherwani and churidar. Also, perhaps, on bandhini, mangalsutra, zardozi, resham, and on the various styles of silk and cotton saris. Kanchipuram silks, Odam cottons, and such. I don't think there's any article on kundun work jewelry, either. Zora 05:53, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
