Talk:History of cremation in Singapore

message: This is an article on the history of the cremation scene in Singapore. It does not present any new ideas: many quotations to reliable sources will prove this point. It is unbiased, and does not support any stand or present any original thesis. It merely surveys and compiles the history of the cremation scene in Singapore, and is thus fit to be added onto an encyclopedia. No new ideas and points of view are presented, just existing knowledge.Jonkwok 17:53, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Question: This article appears to have been copied from another source. Was this some sort of research project for a school class? The inclusion of the USF logo would tend to imply such. If that is the case, then that qualifies as original research which, as good as it might be, is simply not allowed by Wikipedia policy. I noticed that a lot of the articles that were apparently created by USF students were subsequently deleted, which does not bode well for your cause. Realkyhick 19:04, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

text: Even if it were a research project for a class, the article isn't really doing original research.  It is stating facts based on references provided.  I don't see any synthesis of facts to advance a position. -- Whpq 20:59, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Head (musician)

message: This page was moved, and the "musician" label used as a disambiguation. Trouble is, there is another Michael Head (musician), who is more precisely described as a composer. The DAB page for Michael Head describes the other one as a "composer", and describes this one as an "English singer-songwriter". So the "musician" label fails as a disambiguation. No-one presented a coherent argument why "Michael Head (musician)" was better than "Michael Head (singer-songwriter)"; I don't want to start a move battle, but request suggestions. I thought at minimum of a "See also" note at the top, but cannot see quite how to word it. "For the composer, see Michael Head (composer)" doesn't seem quite right, because after all, a singer-songwriter is a sort of composer. "For the Michael Head musician who is not a singer-songwriter..." is even worse. Imaginatorium (talk) 15:22, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

I was reluctant to pull it, (really enjoyed it actually) but it looks to me like not in the spirit of neutral point of view policies. Mark, if you read this, wikipedia is specifically not for contributions of personal knowledge or "original research." Everything here (in theory) should be information publicly available from other sources like magazines, newspapers, other reference works... outside, "authoritative" sources. I'd welcome suggestions from other folks of places for Mark to publish material like what he contributed. And I encourage Mark to keep it up, and to contribute more to wikipedia, of the sort of material wikipedia was meant for. Cheers!--Natcase (talk) 03:31, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

I suggested this in my edit summary but was immediately reverted here with the edit summary "To quote the third paragraph of the Irish Traveller article "Although they are often incorrectly referred to as "Gypsies", Irish Travellers are not genetically related to the Romani people." sources 9 and 10 of the article back it up".

Professional musicians have the opinion that even when Milton Banana lacked formal musical education, he undoubtely had a large dose of talent.  They feel his handling of drum rim percussion was outstanding among Samba and Bossa-Nova drummers, not limiting to snare drum rim, but including Tom-toms and other drums too. And point out that the recordings on which he performs, he never seems to play above the rest of the band, as he respected the work of his colleages.

If you put on a play, and use a songclip from the CD of a particular artist, i don't believe this qualifies for a mention.  For example, to the best of my knowledge, the CBC is allowed to play an artist's material for a certain length of time before having to produce royalties, usually this isn't worth a mention either.
