Talk:Union Square (Baltimore)

message: Hello, all -
After all these months, I got the feedback I had been waiting for regarding this entry. Here is what the note said:
This article or section is not written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article.
I'm not sure what to do next. Can anyone help or offer some suggestions as to what makes for a more formal tone?
My intent, with this article, was to describe Union Square for those who had never been here - but at the same time, to let residents know a little more about thier own historic neighborhood. 
If you read it, you can see I dug up a lot of history, got pictures and images about the neighborhood. I attempted to chronicle the festivals, events; and I included an assortment of interesting details. I added structure and organized the material into sections - then I formatted everything with the tools available in Wikipedia.
As I mentioned when I began this project, any comments are most welcome.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Talk:Alexandre Koyré

message: It is unclear to what extent Koyre influenced Husserl in his understanding of Galileo and the mathematization of nature.  Husserl had worked on this topic well before the conversation (the contents of which no one knows) between Koyre and Husserl leading up to the publication of The Crisis of the European Sciences.  This line in the article is, therefore, a bit misleading.  At the very least, there ought to be a citation in support of this view.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.100.254.156 (talk) 21:06, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Flow of influence between Husserl and Koyre 

message: In my experience, the name is nearly always pronounced koy-ray, not kwa-ray -- at least by professionals in Koyre's field of history of science (which I have been for five decades).  The vowel in the first syllable thus approximates the Russian pronunciation, rather than reflecting French orthography.  Someone who knows how to express this in the phonetic symbols may want to correct the given pronunciation, which is currently written kwa-ray.Ajrocke (talk) 20:33, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Amir Iqbal Cheema Shaheed

message: Huh... Is this supposed to be an article in an encyclopedia?? 
1. There are grammatical errors from the first line
2. The references are totally irrelevant
3. The page presents blatantly wrong information
4. Cheema probably hanged himself. And he did go to prison. There is no proof to suggest that he was killed by police in an encounter.
5. The ample religious annotations clearly demonstrate the propoganda being spread through this page.
—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nebulasam (talk • contribs).
: I've created a redirect to a page that is dealing with these issues, rewritten and with grammar cleanup. If you know Urdu, could you add a brief summary of what each article says (you don't have to include your own opinion)? This would be very helpful.  I've removed a few of the references to someone who died in 1935, since these applied to the political polemic (which doesn't belong on Wikipedia rather than the issue of the article. The German and Pakistani authorities say that he hanged himself, his family claim otherwise, but haven't offered any proof either. If there's an inquest, we repeat what that says.

message: I'd like to nominate this article for GA. It's got all of that wonderful francophobic propaganda we love on WP. Upon reading this, the Germans are portrayed as poor little sheeps in the hands of the nasty Frenchmen who were out to "frenchify", "starve", and "exploit" them. Perfect! We should also mention that the holocaust was a French idea, and realization. I know that's not exactly true, but I count on you Wikipedian brothers to find an appropriate way to formulate this claim into plausible terms, as well as to come up with the seasonal francophobic literature on the subject.

thread_title:  GA Nomination 

message: The Monnet Plan is known formally as the French “Modernization and Re-equipment Plan.”  It was a plan to guide the country in its economic recovery and reconstruction following World War II.   This page would be improved if it had more description of the implementation, goals, and impact of the Plan.  The current text focuses on French foreign policy toward Germany after the war.  This discussion would, perhaps, be better placed on a Wikipedia page on French or German postwar history.  For example, “The Saar Area” section discusses a referendum in the Saar area in 1955, while the Monnet Plan ended in 1952.
Also, the page would be improved if there were more citations.  One of Wikipedia’s core content policies is that information posted needs to be verifiable, based on reliable published sources.

thread_title:  Name of church building 

message: Ok I tried to update the history but hit a snag I don't have a source to hand for. Paragraph 2 of the section says:
The "reverted to" would imply that Jeffreys took the church with him when he left the Elim movement, which makes sense as he bought it and very possibly retained title (part of his problem with Elim was the "hold centrally/pay locally" system so he may have declined to pass on the deeds - although as was pointed out at the time, he did write the rules! Sorry, I have no written sources for any of this parenthetical comment!). After the split he went to Nottingham with his Bible Pattern Fellowship. Problems are: (1) the source implies the name change was in 1935 but the split was 1939 as I recall. (2) we don't mention the split so it is not clear to the reader why the church left. I think we need to explain that. There are electronic copies of the Elim Evangel from the period, but they talk a lot about Jeffreys amicably without seeming to mention he was no longer part of Elim. -- Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 13:05, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

First off, why is this article scheduled for deletion? Please explain in detail, for, frankly, I couldn't really understand what it said at the project page...
Second, how can this article be saved? If it needs to be cleaned up, that can be taken care of. If the context of the character needs to be explained in greater detail, that will be done. If the character's life must be more detailed, I'm sure my friend, Dzsedi, will take care of it, as soon as his schedule permits.

replies: text: If you're going to include this in the article, you'll need to also point to news sources with some knowledgeable authority that could definitely point to the incident as the reasons for the moves. Anyway, how would one know whether this reason was the true reason that caused residents to move away? People move for many reasons, including reasons having to do with job relocation, changes in family makeup (e.g., marriages, divorces), financial considerations and so on. The subdivision where I live (Charles County, MD) had racial incidents involving vandalism to houses (yes...the vandals scrawled racist graffiti on the homes) and cars (flatten tires), and another about 2 miles away, where vandals actually burned down half million dollar homes that were to be bought by black families. Although a number of people moved away in my subdivision, I would never know why, and the news coverage didn't mention anything about the reasons for the moves. That would be speculation at best to say that people moved because of the racial incidents. →Lwalt ♦ talk 07:01, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
