thread_title:  there are 2 pieces of this article which are the exact same 

message: The photo of the standard AK-74M is of an airsoft gun.
Compare the folding stock button at the rear of the receiver to the one in the photo of the '74M with the underbarrel grenade launcher-- on the airsoft gun its corners are squared off rather than rounded, and it lacks the hole drilled out, this is because airsoft versions of this part are typically cast from cheap zinc alloy, these modifications make the part (slightly) stronger.
The pistol grip is also much fatter than a real AK grip, and the grip is set at a more acute angle. The magazine lacks a manufacturers' mark. The top cover is stamped, as on a standard AK-74, rather than smooth, as on the real '74M. It also has a different finish from the receiver, unlike on the real gun. The release/retainer button for the top cover has an additional vertical pin that must be depressed before the top cover can be removed, this is absent on the airsoft gun.
Someone find a photo of a real one please.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:A000:7FC0:6:D4D2:AA67:6F75:7E0D (talk) 03:03, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

They're not there in the original on Commons (and it has a transparent background). Not sure if it's something wrong in the article or a bug in Commons. It looks the same in multiple browsers so I don't think it's an issue at my end.

Talk:Womb

message: I restored the redirect on this page to uterus.  It is not useful to have two pages with identical content.  I noticed that the only difference in the "womb" article was that the word "uterus" was swapped out for "womb".  
If it is important to be using both words, then it is useful to do that in a unified article.  Having duplicated articles in more than one location causes problems.
The way it is set-up now makes sense, I think.
# people entering "womb" OR "uterus" as a search term will find what they want
# the existing article at uterus also uses the word "womb" so it is unlikely anybody will be confused by the language used in the article.

thread_title:  Dutch 

message: Source [4] - van Heuven & Genet (2002) - is no longer available.
Source [5] - Verhoeven (2005), p. 245. - has no indication of the presence of /ɵ/ in any variation of Dutch, at least that I found. Further this article seems to have a too small sample size to actually speak of a standard form of Dutch, it seems to actually highlight the significant variance that is frequently found.
Given that I also don't recall having heard this - [ɦɵt] - pronunciation of "hut" I'd like to petition to strike this from the article. The presence of /ɵ/ in Dutch seems likely to me, but only as a regional variant, not as the standard form.
Further, I'd like to remove both references, as neither one shows what is claimed in any regard. IDon'tFindAName (talk) 13:03, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

If he was born in 1982 wouldn’t he have to be either twelve or thirteen if signed in 1995? If he was eleven when signed it would have to be between 9/27/93 and 9/26/94. Either the date or his age is incorrect. 2601:41:C07F:DA50:906B:A02A:FE44:C26D (talk) 04:37, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

message: I believe there is a cultural difference between continental Europe and Anglo-Saxon countries concerning political endorsements by newspapers. If I am right, American newspapers explicitly endorse candidates in election campaigns. In continental Europe, this is regarded as inappropriate for independent journalism. I don't know how this is seen in Britain. I think this would be an interesting point for the article.
Also, the importance of political endorsements by various groups for electoral success might be discussed.

Talk:Julio Dinero

message: Rather than indulging in edit wars, I will make a discussion here. I believe the correct spelling of this person's name is "Brian Wall" (not "Brian Wohl") which is sourced from 4 references:
1. An interview he personally conducted with SLAM! Sports, link here: http://www.canoe.ca/SlamWrestlingBiosD/dinero_00dec-can.html
2. An appearance he made in WCW under his real name (WCW Saturday Night, August 5th 1995), screenshot here: http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/7499/wallvp.jpg
3. An article from a newspaper in his home state, which mentions him and his real name, link here - http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/articles/28503/the-tights-stuff
4. A profile page by respected wrestling journalist Steve Gerweck, link here - http://www.gerweck.net/2009/10/23/julio-dinero
I believe all these references are very reliable. While there are many internet hits on Google saying "Brian Wohl", most of these pages are sourced from from large "database" wrestling websites such as Online World Of Wrestling, Cagematch.de, Internet Wrestling Database, etc. which, while useful in many respects, do contain a lot of inaccurate information and are compiled from multiple unspecified (and therefore unverifiable) sources. I believe the 4 sources stated above are reliable evidence that "Brian Wall" is the correct spelling. Wf.the.assassin.wf (talk) 16:32, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Talk:David Spade

message: The "Early Life" section says that Spade attended "Scottsdale Community College before transferring to Arizona State University and dropping out shortly thereafter since he was making a decent living doing stand-up." The referenced WSJ article quotes Spade saying he attended Community College for one year and was then accepted to ASU but dropped out in 1985. The "Early Career" section starts with the statement, "Spade began performing stand-up comedy after graduating college." The statement appears wrong based on the cited references in a couple of ways: 1) he began performing stand-up while still attending college, and 2) he never graduated. Either the latter statement should be corrected or a sufficient reference added.

Talk:South Asian American

message: Why is this article even here?  There is no East Asian Americans or Southeast Asian Americans article.  I think some Pak just wanted to associate their group with Indians.  --Dangerous-Boy
There are a fair number of cultural commonalities (between North Indians and Pakistanis with regards to language (the mutually intelligible Hindi and Urdu, and  Punjabi, culture, and cuisine), or between Indian Bengalis and Bangladeshis, or between Indian and Sri Lankan Tamil speakers.
And then there's the Desi identity.
A South Asian identity in America, whether you like it or not, certainly exists.

:Still, you could have just added this info to the Asian American article. --Dangerous-Boy
While all asian cultures have some similarity, the arbitrarily designated south asian ones on the indian subcontinent have considerably more solidarity due to geographic boundaries. I think, more importantly, we should merge the Indian american article into this, and start talking about the subtleties of different parts of the subcontinent -- ie. nepalese, paki, sri lankan, bengali vs bangladeshi, etc etc. Chantoke 09:55, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:John Dennis (dramatist)

message: This article stinks.  This is what you get for reprinting the 1911 Britanica.  Since 1911, scholars have realized a lot more about Dennis's importance.  The man nearly invented literary criticism in English, at least in the sense of a reviewer.  His remarks are clever, intelligent, and, although of course limited by his time and place, usually perceptive.  Yes, he has been subsumed in the figure of the Dunce, and Pope's battle with him (which Pope started) in Essay on Criticism onward has made it difficult to see Dennis for his own merits, but he has plenty of merits.  Even more unbelievably, this article doesn't even have Dennis's most famous statement, upon the failure of his play, when he said, of the next performance (Macbeth) in 1709, "See!  This is how they use me!  They dash my play, but they will steal my thunder!"  (He had invented a technique for creating the sound effect of thunder that, in fact, became the standard.  It was stolen without payment or attribution.)  He is the source of the phrase "steal your thunder."  Before you ask why I don't fix it, I am living between nowhere and noplace and have access to nothing but web sources.  Anyone with access to a DNB could make this article shine.
