Talk:Falcon International Reservoir

message: Oppose, a giant body of water currently a battlefield for the Mexican marines and Los Zetas pirates (see Piracy in Falcon Lake) is certainly notable enough to have it's own page. Maybe the dam article could be merged here, just a though.--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 06:34, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think so, one article for the piracy, and one for the lake. Piracy in Somalia and  Piracy in Nigeria (as well as other areas) all have their own articles, these pirate incidents should have one too. Especially since it is a significant campaign/event in the Mexican Drug War and piratical/military events involving the lake are almost certain to continue, thus allowing for the expansion of the page (a battle occurred on the lake just a few days ago leaving 13 people dead). Heck the piracy on Falcon Lake is more notable than the lake itself, so it would seem. Thanks for responding so soon though.--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 11:20, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Interestingly, there isn't a mention of Falcon lake in the Mexican Drug War article. I am not saying that to refute its notability but surely it deserves a sentence or two. I believe the person who tagged the article wanted to merge the dam article into the reservoir one though. That I am opposed to.--NortyNort  (Holla) 22:09, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Rationale for the merger: The same body of water has 2 separate articles: Falcon dam vs. Falcon reservoir. Exact same place. Exact same subject. What is your rationale for not merging them?  Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 01:47, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The article on the dam is primarily on a structure, not a body of water. A reservoir is a product of a dam and has different functions and purposes. As such the articles are different. In a dam article, you discuss the structure, background, history, etc.  In the reservoir article, you discuss reservoir-related aspects such as geography, recreation, biology, shoreline, fishing, etc. There are many instances on Wikipedia where a dam and the reservoir it creates have seperate articles. Such as Hoover Dam, Pensacola Dam, Davis Dam, Don Pedro Dam, Shasta Dam, Oroville Dam, New Melones Dam, Smith Mountain Dam, etc. There are not two articles in every case; when both can be substantial, there can be two. In this particular case, the dam article is substantial enough to be stand-alone. I see no reason to merge it into the reservoir article.--NortyNort  (Holla) 04:00, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

message: There have been a few edits trying bring the Australian firearms ban into this. To be included in this article, there needs to be a  reliable source that connects the two events, and there needs to be info in the article on who is claiming the link. Here's an example of how it could be written ("Though police gave no official explanation of Ansell's behaviour, some, including John Doe of the Australian Broadcasting Channel[1], have theorized that Ansell attacked police because he believed they were coming to confiscate his firearms, which were banned in Australia in 1996.[2]")--Nonpareility 18:49, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

message: There has been a disagreement about how Adler should be described in the lead of the article. My view is that, per WP:BLP, and given that no-one has suggested he has been a career criminal, that the lead should describe him as a businessman who was jailed. The lead should not use the phrase "...is a criminal", given that the sentence has been served and no-one issuggesting he is currently engaged in, or charged with, criminal activities. hamiltonstone (talk) 23:39, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Peter James Knight was an anti-abortion activist who committed a violent murder. How is this category not appropriate? I don't understand what you are trying to say regarding terrorism implication in your edit summary.

thread_title:  Category:Anti-abortion violence 

message: The AP recommends using the terms 'anti-abortion' and 'abortion rights' to describe sides of the Abortion debate without using political framing techniques. There is some contention with these terms, with anti-abortion side of the debate not wanting to be labelled as 'anti'. See United States pro-life movement#Controversies over terminology
Currently there are 4 articles:
* Anti-abortion movements
* United States pro-life movement
* Abortion-rights movements
* United States pro-choice movement
It seems that for articles referring to the United States, the 'pro-life' and 'pro-choice' terms are preferred, while international discussion more commonly uses the terms 'anti-abortion' and 'abortion rights'.
I've changed a link from pro-life to Anti-abortion movements as I think this reflects the AP terminology, which I think is correct for an article about Australia. If this is opposed, please discuss this on the talk page, don't just get into an edit war.
-- Aronzak (talk) 08:02, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Both "pro-life" and "pro-choice" are weaselly bunny-hugging terms designed to be difficult to disagree with. "Abortion rights" is a little weaselly, because I figure if it's good enough to describe one side as anti-, then it should be good enough to describe the other simply as pro-. Naming one side as a "-rights" movement immediately positions your opponents as oppressors. But it is an improvement, and if that's the current state of play on Wiki then I guess it will stay that way.

Quite a bit of detail on how Dunn bribed police, fled to Honduras and was tracked down by Sixty Minutes. 
http://www.miaminewtimes.com/1997-12-04/news/sherlock-holmes-meet-melanie-morningstar/
The Central American country has no extradition treaty with either Australia or the United States, so Honduran immigration authorities took a different tack. They decided to detain Dunn and then expel him as an "undesirable person." Because many international flights out of Tegucigalpa land in Miami as either a destination or connecting point, it made sense for Dunn to be sent to the United States, which does have an extradition treaty with Australia. The only possible problem: Honduran immigration officers by law couldn't hold Dunn longer than 24 hours, so they had to time their arrest in a way that would ensure he was promptly put on a plane to Miami.
