On the same note, one video actually appears to be missing...I don't remember the artist or name of the video, but it's that famous song that goes "Bad, bad, bad, bad boys, they make me feel so good..." I saw it on a recent episode, which semmed odd since I didn't remember seeing it the first time I saw it...Maybe it was a correction/change or something...

message: The article states, "Rossio mentioned how Disney was hit with at least six plagiarism lawsuits for the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie for supposedly stealing elements of the Monkey Island video game and stuff from the On Stranger Tides novel, despite there being a ride at Disneyland and also a first draft screenplay by other writers."
But the cited source by Rossio says, "For the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Disney was hit with no less than six plagiarism suits. All writers claiming we stole their work. (Not to mention we supposedly lifted elements of the video game Monkey Island, also stuff from the novel On Stranger Tides. Add that there was a first draft screenplay by other writers, and also a ride at Disneyland. With all that, why, the script practically wrote itself!)"
Rossio is clearly saying that the Disney was hit by six lawsuits *and* people said ("not to mention") they ripped off Monkey Island and On Stranger Tides. Not that they were sued over Monkey Island and On Stranger Tides. -- 65.32.168.88 (talk) 19:01, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Russian Orthodox Diocese of Sourozh/Canon 28 Debate

message: Dear Dn Damick,
I appreciate your latest contribution, which I take to be positively constructive.
For my part though, I don't consider grand-scale rhetoric to be 'stooping'; nor do I find it necessary to seek moral high-ground. As I said previously, such rhetoric is entirely in line with the modes of discourse of the Fathers, and, following their example, I am quite comfortable with such registers.
I think there are two issues here: (a) the need to point to the issue of the significance of the move from the Russian Orthodox Diocese of Sourozh to the Paris Exarchate of Churches of 'Russian tradition'; and (b) how best to structure the presentation of this issue in the article. I think they're best tackled one at a time. Below, I've stated my overall understanding of the situation in response to your comments above. This is intended as a first step to resolving the disputed paragraph.
I am, as always, very happy to work towards a rephrasing of the paragraph. Clearly it is not yet well-put, given your objection to it.
Maxim662 16:21, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you honestly think that the sort of rhetoric appropriate to defending the faith against heretics who are seeking to destroy the Church is also appropriate for doing editorial work on an Internet encyclopedia article with someone who shares the same faith?  The Fathers use many kind of rhetoric, not all of it polemic.  Polemics are for a polemos, a war.  On Wikipedia, the standard is instead to assume good faith.  —A.S.

message: Again from the introduction:
:The Dutch retained possession of West New Guinea from 1945, but upon reaching Java 4,000 km away in Asia, they were shocked to find that four years of propaganda had turned many Javanese against the Netherlands.
This paragraph suggests that the Indonesian independence was the brainchild of the administration of the Japanese occupation.  This is not correct:  the movement towards independence was already established as early as the 1920's, with various political and study groups forming, many of which leaders eventually became the leaders of Indonesia upon the declaration of independence in 1945.  It is more accurate to write the paragraph as:
:The Dutch retained possession of West New Guinea from 1945, but upon reaching Java 4,000 km away in Asia, they were shocked to not find similar levels of support from the population of Java.
If there are no objections, I will make the change.  It is true that there are allegations of Sukarno being an accomplice of Japanese rule at the time, but the fact that there was already an independence movement preceding the Japanese rule - and that it was already steadily growing in number and influence since the 1920s independently of the Japanese - means that the above original paragraph is inaccurate.

thread_title: Hoax

message: This article discusses two pretty discrete topics, "defatting" as a process of removing fat from food (either by trimming or skimming), and "defatting" as a biochemical process with medical implications. There really isn't much overlap except in the name and the literal implications contained in the meaning of the name. So I figure it should be split up. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 14:08, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Though I agree that a split should be done, I'm not convinced the food process should be called 'defatting' at all. 'Degreasing' is a much more common term, it pulls 580,000 odd results on google, 'defatting' pulls less than 100,000 and that includes the medical use as well. I propose, the content about the food process be moved to degreasing (currently a redirect), the medical/ biochemical content be moved to defatting (medical) or defatting (biochemical), and this page become a disambiguation page, linking to the other two articles. I'll carry this out shortly if there are no objections. -France3470 (talk) 16:33, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
