thread_title: TfD nomination of [[:Template:British Latinos]]

message: This list is off-topic, and needs to be radically pruned down. It begins with the word "This list also includes British people who were born or have lived in Argentina", despite that the article is about Britons with Argentine ancestory. It then includes people that don't even fall into that, broader catagory - i.e. Argentinians with some British descent. At least one person on the list might struggle to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines anyway.  Quite a few of the pages on Britain's Latin American minorities are showing the same problems. Either the topic of the page is broadened to accomodate these individuals, or their names should be removed. Indisciplined (talk) 17:37, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

It's to do with this meme, the idea being that it's funny to add the words "Check 'Em" into an article about "Dubs".

Talk:USS General Burnside

message: Prior to writing my family history, I obtained information from several sources about the Union gunboat USS General Burnside (No.63). My g-grandfather served as a seaman on the vessel 1864-65.  The Wiki References section indicates that the article includes text from the Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships.   I have a copy of that text and it conflicts with other sources, which I believe to be correct,concerning when and where it was built. 
These sources are as follows:
1. Charles Dana Gibson and E.Kay Gibson, THE ARMY'S NAVY SERIES, Dictionary of Transports and Combatant Vessels,Steam and Sail, Employed by the Union Army, 1861-1868, (Camden Maine: Ensign Press,1995)p.125.
This source indicates that there were four vessels named General Burnside and one named General A.E. Burnside during the Civil War period. The Wiki description matches the General Burnside built at Bridgeport,Alabama by the Quartermaster Department and launched in 1864....not a vessel by that name built in 1862.
2. U.S. Naval War Records Office, Official Records of the Union and Confederate Navies in the War of the Rebellion, (Washington D.C.: Government Printing Office 1914), Series I, Vol.26.
Message on page 326 from Rear-Admiral David D. Porter USN, Commander Mississippi Squadron to Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy in 1864 that a steamer built at Chattanooga (Bridgeport) be named General Burnside. 
Another message (page 566) dated September 26,1864 from LCDR Fitch to Rear Admiral Porter at Mound City,Ill. forwarded the dimensions and tonnage of the Burnside and three sister gunboats "built at Bridgeport,Alabama".
I would urge that the article be edited to correct the error in view of the above discrepancy.

message: "By June, the Gibralter was back in the Mediterranean, serving in the navy's Egyptian campaign,"
The comma implies that in previous duty in the Mediterranean, the ship had not been serving in in that campaign. True? Otherwise, please remove the comma. Tony (talk)  08:36, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: True. The Mediterranean Campaign began in 1798 and Gibraltar was there in 1795 before having to go to England for repairs, following a storm. She was also in the Mediterranean under the Spanish flag. Fenix, as she was then, was part of a squadron of ten ships of the line sent to collect King Carlos III from Naples in 1759. She was also there, apparently, in 1779, immediately before her capture off Cape St Vincent in January 1780.--Ykraps (talk) 08:33, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Post by Peter Masson
Or was that the collision between two freight trains at Weaver Junctionon
the night of 6/7 August 1975? I travelled on the Royal Scot on the 7th, and
we were diverted (via Denton and Manchester Victoria), arriving at Glasgow
Central a tad over 2 hours down.
That was the 'Whisky and Soda' incident, on Dutton Viaduct. Customs
and Excise officers (David Hansen will, no doubt, tell us that they
were 'perverts', probably wearing the wrong shaped hat) had to be on
the scene, and there was a big job damming and draining the Weaver and
Weaver Navigation below, due to contamination issues with the soda. 94.196.175.151 (talk) 13:53, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Aberfeldy, Perth and Kinross

message: Is there some reason that the Aberfeldy distillery is not mentioned here?  I was last there in 1998 myself, so I don't know with certainty that the distillery itself is in operation (though it seems that it is), but it appears that Dewars has now renamed the (expanded?) visitors' center as "Dewar's World of Whisky".  If the distillery is still in operation and is still producing a prominent part of the Dewar's blend, then given Dewar's prominent place in whisky, it seems a mention is appropriate, although avoiding an obvious commercial plug is clearly desirable.

message: Someone wrote without citation that these mushrooms are "a bane to those concerned of their tree health", but this could easily be taken to mean they endanger trees, in every study I've seen, most trees with this mushroom were already dying or dead, the mushroom rarely spreads to healthy trees. Clearly there is more nuance required here.

thread_title: Allegation about Nielsen and Weinstein

message: I just watched it on DVD (I am in China), and the plot line about the honor killing of the sister by the younger Baraheri brother is fully intact. It is specifically stated that he killed his sister and her lover because she brought shame on the family for sleeping with a married man. Was this plot line omission only for the USA ? Was it reversed ? Did it ever exist ? Because it doesn't exist now.
It's only a rumor that the honor killing plotline was ever changed.  All the filmmakers did was remove the dialogue related to "honor" and "family honor."  Otherwise nothing else was changed, which led to Sean Penn demanding to be cut out of the film (even though he committed to the original honor killing version).

thread_title:  Honour Killing 

message: The IMDB states that the movie was filmed in May 2007. Why has it sat on the shelf for 2 years ?
 
It (often) takes up to a year to edit a film and preview it - sometimes longer.  Weinstein pushed the release date by another six months.  The film only finished production at the end of July 2007.  This happens all the time - but Crossing Over was beset with post production conflicts.  The director, Wayne Kramer, was not happy with Harvey Weinstein reediting his cut of the film (supposedly removing over 20 minutes of footage) and, at Sean Penn's request, Harvey Weinstein cut out a framing device sequence that featured Sean Penn and Alice Braga.  This necessitated a reshoot of the ending.  Ned Racine (talk) 00:30, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Let's remember that Maronite identity was pretty much blended with pan-Arabism back in 1930s, so the population figures were largely Jews vs. Arabs in Mandatory Palestine. If you look in other Middle Eastern states/territories at the time, then even Jews were not existent officially, due to their identification as "Arab Jews", who speak Arabic. A surviving law of this type is identification of Syrian Jews as "Mussawi Arabs" in the Syrian Republic, which to my best knowledge is still in tact; i would not be surprised if Maronites are identified as "Maronite Arabs" as well.GreyShark (dibra) 13:21, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Mickey O'Neil (Snatch)

message: I have reverted the article to the previous version (by myself). My reason for this is that the previous version has 3 sources which verify the facts in the article, but more importantly, it does not contain the large number of direct quotes which were subsequently added. The non-free content guidelines say that "Brief quotations of copyrighted text may be used to illustrate a point, establish context, or attribute a point of view or idea...Extensive quotation of copyrighted text is prohibited." I would say that dialog from a film is definitely copyrighted. Also, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and as such, extensive quotes don't really add anything. Featured articles on characters such as Jack Sparrow, Palpatine and Jason Voorhees don't contain block of verbatim quotes. I'd appreciate it if we could discuss before adding more quotes.
