text: Sounds fine to me.  Just because I know how our policies suggest we deal with mergeable content doesn't mean I have a strong opinion on how it's done. Jclemens (talk) 04:35, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

text: While in principle I'd prefer what seemed to be Jclemens's suggestion of a four-way merge between this and the three novel articles, in practice the novel articles are currently different enough in structure that merging them would require some dedicated work (which I for one don't have time for at the moment). So in practice, merging to Huntingtower (novel) seems the best feasible option at least for now (with any suggestions for a more general merger being taken to the talk pages for the novel articles if, as and when someone wants to do it properly). PWilkinson (talk) 22:38, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  If the three novel articles were to be merged, the new article title for them would be something like "Dickson McCunn trilogy" - i.e., pretty much this article. If that is going to happen, you'd be better keeping this article, renaming it if need be, then merging the three novel articles into it. Opera hat (talk) 22:54, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Naiqama Lalabalavu

message: This article was a long-term unreferenced BLP (tagged March 2009). I have concerns about the potentially controversial content and historical accuracy. There is no mention of the prison sentence which led to the 2005 resignation, for instance. Needs oversight, updating and references adding by someone with better knowledge of recent political history than I. I've added one reference, which takes it out of the "unreferenced" category but I feel it urgently needs more attention.

Talk:Interrupted screw

message: I suggest this article should be merged with "Breech mechanism" as the second article covers more systems and is better illustrated.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.250.59.239 (talk) 17:57, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The current content of the "Interrupted screw" article could readily be merged, but the topic is broader.  Notably, this is a common method for securing connectors to plates.  A hole with tabs is made in the place, which keeps the connector from turning and a nut can be secured on the connector without needing a tool on the connector (the plate functions as the tool).  Similar view to Rcbutcher here, I was looking for uses outside artillery. 74.104.188.4 (talk) 00:23, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

text: The concept of the interrupted screw has applications beyond locking breeches. It is an engineering concept which artillery merely borrows. Hence it should be kept separate from guns and breeches. Rcbutcher (talk) 06:19, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

message: https://gutenberg.org/ebooks/71928 -- a book on gunsmithing published in 1883 -- in its opening chapter on history quotes a patent for an interrupted screw much earlier than the one cited here: 1661, to the Marquis of Worcester. Paul Koning (talk) 23:58, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Scottish FA International Roll of Honour

message: It is now known as the Scottish FA International Roll of Honour and the portraits of each player are displayed within the Scottish Football Museum at Hampden Park. 
A new Hall of Fame, known as the 'Scottish Football Hall of Fame' also features within the museum at Hampden, and has done so since 2004. It is more representative as it features managers, and great players, like Jimmy Johnstone and Jim Baxter, who never got close to winning 50 caps for Scotland.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.139.73.83 (talk) 15:47, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with this and have moved the page, the SFA clearly self identifies this list as being a roll of honour now, with the football hall of fame being operated by the Scottish Football Museum.

My second surgery took place in Aug '09 (18 yrs sharp). My mind felt scared, but surgery was terrific. My left temporal lobe, piece of frontal, and hyppocampus were succesfully removed.
Mild Aspergers is most of it, I find now. The frontal lobe and hypothalamus, I believe, somehow need work through this condition. We lead our mind, no anxiety.

Second, the india.com article used as a source notes that the date is unverified and that she "apparently shares the same birth date" with another actress and that "if some old records are to be believed" (bolding mine).

I appreciate that he tried to update it, but seemed like just bunch of blogs. I tried to fix it, but seemed like there were too many stuff that I actually undid all his revisions, including my attempts at fixing it. I hope somebody actually fix it properly.Waltzingmogumogupeach (talk) 16:14, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing in the new edits was hagiographical. In fact it brings out the many facets of the topic of this article which is very purpose of an encyclopaedic site. By deleting all the edits it has reverted to a redundant, un updated version of the topic of the article's life, works and contributions. All the links to external blogs and Vidoes were in the manner of informative collection of works that adds value to wiki page.  Rangamandira (talk) 18:10, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Ragmandira. As i said, i appreciated the new updates but it seemed like it is very weird in how you originally edited the article, considering most of them were linked in a very unconventional way that does not usually fit the wiki's policies regarding links. Some of the links that you edited there were often just bare links in the middle of the article and it gave me a very messy impression. Also when i originally saw your version of the article, it seemed more like a blog than an article in a wikified form and from the attic did not deserve its own sectiion seperate from the works of the said person. If it was, it should be under works and legacy not in its own total section.And your subheadings are often just randomly emphasized for no reason. Most articles don't really emphasize the subheadings unless its a title. Also by the way your infobox is broken heavily when you edited. How is that not vandalism? If you gonna add it fix it properly.Also lot of just monstrous amount of redundant categories that did not exist stand out from your edits.Waltzingmogumogupeach (talk) 14:51, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

text: In that case, you are the last person who should be creating the article! Please read WP:COI, which explains why you should never create articles about yourself or your company. Mayalld 13:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Why would somebody who doesn't work for you be unable to write the article? Other articles about magazines get written without the need for an "inside job". As it stands, the only reason that nobody has done so appears to be a lack of sufficient notability for somebody to care enough to write an impartial article. I accept that you have attempted to tone down the sales puff in the article (as originally written, it was obvious that it was written by an insider) to a degree. However, it remains the case that this article seeks to "get a Wikipedia page" for a magazine that nobody outside its own staff thought sufficiently notable to add, and that is NOT what Wikipedia is for. If you want to avoid any article on your magazine getting deleted, don't write it! Sit there and hope that somebody else will write about you. Pressing on regardless of WP:COI can only result in adverse publicity for your employer. Mayalld 14:06, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

text: No rudeness is intended. However, as I believe you now appreciate, Wikipedia is under a constant deluge of people attempting to add non-encyclopedic content, which takes a good deal of time to undo, so as to maintain the standing of the project. Yes, it would be better if your reader submitted an article, as this would satisfy the WP:COI objection. The problem would however remain that there is a need for 3rd part verifiable sources to confirm notability. Without them, an article wouldn't stand a chance. Mayalld 15:07, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
