Conroy was born in a Welsh-speaking area, so his 'native language' might be presumed to be Welsh. Presumably he was brought up speaking English, however, but in what way was this of 'value' to the Duchess who did not? I have deleted this unexplained and badly expressed gibberish.

Talk:Chinese New Year Spectacular

message: Wikipedia's a non-biased source of information. 
I just watched the Chinese New Year Spectacular in Vancouver, Canada, and it was a waste of my $80 ticket. The entire show was riddled with obvious and hidden politically-motivated Falun Gong messages. 
I hope to let the public know what this show's really about.
Can someone add in that this show is politically motivated, and attempts to spread the teaching of Falun Gong, and their advertising it as a "traditional Chinese New Year celebration" is essentially false advertisement, and protect the article from being reverted by Falun Gong cultists? Thanks. 75.11.163.127 08:48, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Asocena

message: I removed  the assertion that RA8485 makes consumption of dog meat illegal in the Philippines. That assertion is not confirmed by the cited supporting source and, in fact, RA8485 has nothing whatever to do with the consumption of dog meat (or any other kind of meat) -- it is concerned with supervising and regulating the establishment and operations of facilities utilized for breeding, maintaining, keeping, treating or training of animals..
While I was at it, I imported some supporting cites from the Dog meat article for countries mentioned as eaters of dog meat. I removed mention of Cambodia because that article doesn't mention it (or, of course, cite a source which would support that mention).

Talk:102nd meridian west

message: On 1850-09-28, the United States officially adopted the Prime Meridian of Greenwich for all nautical and international use, but also adopted the Washington Meridian (based upon the old United States Naval Observatory) for astronomical and official domestic use.  Although the Greenwich Meridian was widely employed, the United States retained the Washington Meridian for official domestic use until the Greenwich Meridian was officially adopted for all uses on 1912-08-22.  The borders of most western territories were defined during this period.  Since the old United States Naval Observatory is 2.76 miles (4.44 kilometers) west of the meridian 77° west of Greenwich, most western states have borders 2.0 to 3.5 miles (3.2 to 5.6 kilometers) west of their Greenwich-based meridians.
The Enabling Act of the Territory of Colorado dated February 28, 1861, states that the extent of the territory (and the future state) shall be defined by the metes and bounds "commencing on the thirty-seventh parallel of north latitude, where the twenty-fifth meridian of longitude west from Washington crosses the same; thence north on said meridian to the forty-first parallel of north latitude; thence along and parallel west to the thirty-second meridian of longitude west from Washington; thence south on said meridian to the northern line of New Mexico; thence along the thirty-seventh parallel of north latitude to the place of beginning."
The actual state boundaries are defined by government surveys which deviate from the theoretical borders by small distances.  The most recent National Geodetic Survey measurement of the Four Corners Monument places the monument at 36°59'56.31532"N 109°02'42.62019"W, about 114 meters (375 feet) south of the 37th parallel north and about 4.0 kilometers (2.5 miles) west of the 109th meridian west.

thread_title: Interesting image found on commons

message: This article says specifically that it's about furniture. Certainly a nice article could be developed on the history and construction of actual round tables.
The 'round table' as a discussion would obviously not fit in the category 'furniture.' There would be a brief explanation that the use of such physical round tables led to a metaphorical usage, with (if needed) referrals to the appropriate article(s). A person seeking an explanation of an academic round table, for instance (my current need), doesn't need an article on furniture making. My feeling is that Round table (discussion) ought to redirect to a subhead under Academic conferences; not sure it needs its own page. Cynwolfe (talk) 16:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

*The article claims that the title is sometimes spelled "The Stakeout".  Source, please.

*It would be nice to see the 16.2 ratings in millions of viewers.
*"featuring Elaine and Jerry"—do you mean "featuring Louis-Dreyfus and Seinfeld"?
*"Reviews at the time gave were almost all positive"—Oh, really?  Source, please.  Or at least more than one positive review versus two negative reviews.

I'm guessing that someone misheard the name & it snowballed from there.  There is a web site called SeinfeldScripts.com that has all the scripts, but they're not official scripts; they're transcribed by someone not affiliated with the show, and they used Sagman, which I believe is where the error originated and all persons who use Sagman are simply quoting the misquote.PhilOSophocle (talk) 21:59, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

:Thanks. The photos are lovely, but I'm not convinced they're appropriate for this article. The problem I see is that in none of the photos is there enough context to understand what's going on, and how things fit together. In most of the images there's a mix of in & out of focus, which is fine for many purposes but probably not fine for illustrating a mostly technical article. Other people, of course, may disagree with me. Finally, wikipedia is always looking for images - don;t let me views put you off. I'd be delighted if wikipedia could benefit from some of your images ... please keep looking for opportunities to illustrate an article with your work. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

thread_title:  Historic piano actions 

message: I came here requesting more information on the escapement mechanism of piano actions. I'm listening to a recording on clavichord right now, and I find it interesting that the clavichord has no escapement, whereas the piano and even the tangent piano have escapements. The tangent piano article erroneously links to Escapement. The escapement of pianos and that of clocks and watches are alike only in that both are called "escapements." I'm wondering if typewriters also have a mechanism that is called an escapement by analogy with a piano escapement.

Talk:Utopia, Northern Territory

message: This article was one long section. I re-arranged the text somewhat to get it into sections, and left the wording as is but put in some fundamental links (eg: Indigenous Australian). I am not sure what the usual language in the area is but generally on Wikipedia there is no middle ground between "indigenous Australian" and the name of the local tribal/clan/family group (Alyawarra and Anmatjirra people from my reading of things but I am not sure if the language group and the name of the community group is the same thing here?)
