replies: text: This article isnt subject to BLP, for ovbvious and tragic reasons.

message: There is no possible way that a sex offender lives within a mile of every person in Britain, what idiot made up that statistic?
:given that people in Britian Britain has a very high population density (one London Borough has a population density of over 15,000 people per square kilometer, and the city has an averge density of almost 4700 people per KM2), it might be close to the truth.
--perfectblue 15:35, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That would depend on the population density. With a population of 50m (approx), and 25,000 registered sex offenders, that makes  1 in 2,000 people a sex offender. Multiply the population density (from here) by the occurrence of offenders for an approximation of where they live. Not that geographical distance is a factor in any way. An be sure not to conflate sex offenders with child murderers - they tend to live in the same house as their victims. - Tiswas(t/c) 17:08, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I dont think we could safely even say a person lives within a mile of every person in Britain but anyway such a statement would have to be sourced or removed, SqueakBox 17:25, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

text: Oddly, I came across a similar statistic, but this time to do with bees and mobile phones. The statistic looks to be safe - assuming a uniform population distribution, within one mile of you are (1^2 * pi * people / mile^2) == (3.14 * 640) == 2010 people, of which one is a registered sex offender. - Tiswas(t/c) 10:21, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Organ console

message: The article states:
:: The name "Choir" is a corruption of "Chair", as this division initially came from the practice of placing a smaller, self-contained, organ at the rear of the organist's bench.
There are no sources to verify this etymology.  A quick search found  which indicates that there are multiple possible etymologies and doesn't indicate which one is believed to be correct.  agrees that "choir" (as the name of an organ division) is a corruption of "chair", but doesn't exactly support the reasoning for why it was called a "chair" organ. --Bigpeteb (talk) 17:16, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Huitzilatzin

message: I've put this on hold, but I'm seriously close to failing this one (no offence, and that applies to all I am going to say)
Problems:
* The article is 3.8KB approx., and probably about half of that is notes. In fact, I dont think it would be irrational for someone to actually mark the article as a stub. Please, expand at least probably by twice. I know size can often not be a huge factor in GA noms, but 3.8KB is just out of the ballpark.
* An obvious factor that comes with length is also more depth for the 1. information that is already there and 2.the information that is to (hopefully) come. Please, expand the article and explain as much of you can. Perhaps a 'Background' section might be possible, explaining or giving some more factual information/context/depth to the text (maybe give more information about the civilisation that he ruled?). A 'Later/Future Rulers/Successors section may also help. Adding these contexts provide a cheap disguise (for want of a better word) for the real lack of information that you have on the main subject, but can also help give some good, useful background information for readers to compare the main subject to. These contexts can lengthen an article considerably.
*While this is not an actual problem, it would certainly serve as a bonus in my mind to the article - an image or two. Images can often provide much valuable information, and are quite common is GAs.
Positives:
*Many references (although, as aforementioned, comprise about half the actual article). Try to find sources for the 'citation needed' information.
*A few categories.
*Nice use of two infoboxes.
*Many wikilinks.
Summing Up:
Most things are ok, but length is the major problem - the article is simply too short (and, if I may say, too stubbish) to be a GA at the moment, or even a B class. Also, try and work on finding some images. A bit of background information would also be appreciated, perhaps on the region, other future rulers and/or other relevent information. You have 7 days to make this GA standard, so I think you should really work on this, otherwise I'm going to have to fail this.
I hope you are able to make the necessary improvements in the allocated time.

Talk:Coleus caninus

message: The plant sold under patent in the USA under this name is in fact Plectranthus ornatus. As it in no way differs from regular P. ornatus the patent application was refused in the EU, despite the German marketers appealing the decision numerous times. As it stands it is illegal to propagate the species P. ornatus for sale in the USA (without paying the German patent-holder), but no restrictions on the species apply in the EU. See the German Wikipedia article for a full explanation. 
The cat and dog repellent qualities due to the heavy Cannabis scent as invented by the marketers is indeed highly questionable -no research into this was mentioned in the patent application.
The real P. caninus (often mislabelled in European collections as P. comosus) has narrower leaves, is less robust and has similar flowers. P. neochilus (rounder, less truncated leaves) and P. arabicus (smaller leaves & plant) are also very similar. ---Leo

– Requesting move of all the animal articles using "Galapagos" without diacritics (with the exception of fish here, which could be a bit of a different case; these are also all the articles actually related to the islands except an organisation). The page for the islands has just been moved back to the diacritics (Talk:Galápagos Islands#Requested move), after that page and some of the pages listed here were moved without discussionby. Most articles (e.g., Galápagos tortoise, Galápagos Petrel) use and have used the diacritics; diacritics definitely are very commonly used, if not more so and in more appropriately for the article as argued at the requested move for the islands. It is possible that diacritics are less commonly used for the animal species, but I would expect it to be the opposite, especially for relatively obscure species. —innotata 16:17, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

* Lyperobius tuberculatus, the type of Hadramphus tuberculatus redirects to Karocolens tuberculatus
* Canterbury knobbed weevil and Spaniard weevil, attempts to give a common name, none of which is used (which should not come as a surprise, since the little fellows went extinct, or so one presumes), all redirect to the subjective junior synonym.  Banks Peninsula speargrass weevil lacks a redirect.
