Talk:Equus Survival Trust

message: The term "endangered breed" is used through the conservation breeders community, as evidenced by the multiple sources used to source this article.  While at the moment, the word "endangered" redirects to the endangered species article, and clearly a breed is not a species, the word "endangered" can have more meanings - endangered breed, endangered health, endangered habitat, yada, yada, yada.  Thus, the solution is not to remove the word "endangered," but perhaps instead to fix the dab and the redirect so they are more appropriate to the word used. Having now taken this issue to talk, I invite the other editor to discuss, without insults and to AGF. Montanabw(talk) 15:01, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Do not threaten me, I have done a compromise edit that incorporates both phrases.  You will do far better to provide reasoned arguments.  The term "endangered breed" is used extensively, and no one is arguing that a breed is a species.  Other than the redirect going to the endangered species article, I see no logic for your (redundant) "wrong, incorrect" and "lazy."  See, e.g. these:  , (mission statement) and and a formal definition from the European Environment Agency  So, I question your "incorrect" assertion.  Please provide better reasoning for your actions other than  WP:IDONTLIKEIT.  Montanabw(talk) 21:44, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Tetragammataon as a name for Yahweh

message: I think, perhaps, this page should be removed.  Either that or it needs some additional description and pruning in order to be more than nonsense.
If the page is intended to be contain names of gods, then it doesn't do a very good job of it and I'm sure there are more complete lists.  If it is intended to contain a list of names of a certain god, then it doesn't do a good job because it contains the names of different gods (for instance, Amaterasu is certainly not a name for Yahweh).
The only interpretation under which it seems to make any sense is if the author is intending to imply that all religions of the world worship the same god under different names.  While this is a perfectly decent opinion to make a page about (if a movement representing that idea exists), it is inappropriate to present the view as fact.

replies: text: Yes, but they aren't reliable and they are in fact, wrong.  Breed promotion sites tend to want to claim that their breed is the most ancient and such.  But this theory has been disproven.  Montanabw(talk) 03:25, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Star Wars sequel trilogy

message: I don't think Marcia's thoughts on the sequel trilogy are particularly useful here. She says "that Kennedy and Abrams "don't get" the franchise" which would be more useful if she didn't complain about the prequels in the same conversation. Based on the comments she didn't like any Star Wars project for which she wasn't involved. She's not a critic. She's an editor who worked on the first trilogy. - Nemov (talk) 14:56, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Pinging  as this was their addition to the article. I can see where you're coming from, but in any case the fact that she worked on the films and isn't a critic is the exact reason why, like George and J.J, she is included in this section on filmmakers (although it might be a stretch to label her as such). Wikibenboy94 (talk) 18:30, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It isn't even a stretch; her contributions to the OT form a major part of story-affecting decisions relevant to the entire saga. Having Obi-Wan die in the first film, making Han's return at the end of Ep IV a heroic moment, etc., are due to her direct influence. UpdateNerd (talk) 06:59, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  To address Nemov's thoughts though, you're happy with keeping this in, even if she criticized the prequels as well? Wikibenboy94 (talk) 10:27, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes I'm happy with keeping it as-is. This isn't the prequel trilogy article. UpdateNerd (talk) 10:33, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  She's not a critic. That's the biggest issue. I mention the prequels because she also implied they were bad. Why is her opinion relevant? I don't downplay her involvement in the original trilogy, but the only reason her opinion received coverage was because of her relationship to Lucas and than she was an editor on a Star Wars film 35+ year ago. Certainly there's real critics out there that would be better to use than the ex-wife of George Lucas. - Nemov (talk) 12:53, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  As Wikibenboy94 already pointed out, the subsection is for criticism of notable contributors to Star Wars films. The rest of the (parent) section is that for critics. UpdateNerd (talk) 13:11, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a stretch to call her a notable contributor. Abrams and Lucas I understand, but she's just not on that level with no film credits since 1983. I won't beat the dead horse further, but I find the justification for inclusion pretty weak. Thanks for responding though. Nemov (talk) 14:16, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

message: It appears that a major amount of the content on this article is a direct copy and paste from the reference links in the article.  Unless the text can be rewritten, this article will probably end up being deleted as a copyright violation.

message: Wikipedia is an international encyclopedia. This article refers to a company that 
presumably operates only in a single region, country or state. I am guessing that 
the country in question is the US. I make this guess because people from the US
seem to frequently the think that the world begins and ends there and forget that 
the rest of the world exists. However it is not acceptable for an article in wikipedia
to omit such basic information or to assume the US is the default counrty for everything
it talks about. ~~  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.217.240.32 (talk) 00:27, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Garron

message: Nigel Tranter is normally spot-on with historical details and the description of garrons as "larger war horses used by knights wearing heavy armour" seems unlikely, unless this is just in comparison to an even smaller horse and heavy armour was not very heavy in that period. I wonder if this is a misinterpretation of the book. His usage of the term in other books seems more conventional (e.g. "the shaggy short-legged garron" in Black Douglas). I've only ever heard birlinn (or birlin/birling) used for a type of galley or large rowing boat. Mutt Lunker (talk) 11:24, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

"While it was never released as a single ..."
- so which was it ? -- Beardo (talk) 01:31, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The infobox still lists it as a single, even claiming a song as its B-side. An obvious contradiction remains. Patricia Meadows (talk) 00:48, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's also listed as a single in the Steely Dan navbox and on Katy Lied. A search of Gemm and Ebay also shows copies, though the results are strikingly few, suggesting that it may have been a promo-only release. Certainly that would explain its absence from the charts despite being one of the band's most well-played songs. However, that is purely conjecture; that it was released as a single is certainty, so I'm going to remove that bit.--Martin IIIa (talk) 18:28, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Siege of Gaza (332 BCE)

message: I think that we have to change the "Macedonian victory" into "Greek" as Macedon was part of Greece, Macedonians were basically Greeks. There were not only Macedonians against Persian empire but also other Greeks. A. Katechis Mpourtoulis (talk) 07:27, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Macedonia was the leader of the Hellenic League, but this naming thing you are trying to PUSH is more conected to the "Macedonia naming dispute" than to actual facts. We already discussed this here, and if i remember right, you resorted to racial slurs. In any case, there is plenty of sources in the article to back up what's already there. Macedonia was part of what today we consider to be "Greece", but this is up for debate. For instance, greeks called Philip II and the macedonians back at that time "barbarians". There were part of what historians called "ancient greece", mostly due to cultural similarities, but again, there is too much debate on this. And since the historians debate, why should Wikipedia pretend there is a consensus when in fact there is none? Plus, i don't think you are here to "correct mistakes", but to WP:POINT, plain and simple.
