Talk:London Buses route 185

message: WP:NOTAGUIDE would apply if this section was trying to replicate a timetable, listing every stop, times of operation etc, but by listing the key points it provides backup for the infobox per WP:INFOBOXREF which suggests this should be replicated in the article’s body with a cite. If the article doesn't include key points like where a route goes from and to, then little point in having the article. While the cite is primary, it is acceptable to use to back up basic facts per WP:PRIMARYNOTBAD. 
If an editor still feel this should be deleted, suggest a discussion be held at WP:WikiProject London Transport to gain a consensus to change what appears to be a long accepted style, rather than applying to articles at random. Strato6 (talk) 04:17, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Archie (squid)

message: Totally non-notable and written as an advertisement for the Natural History Museum, London, an institution that hardly needs clumsy linkspam from Wikipedia. The subject of the article isn't an especially large specimen of a giant squid, nor a historically important one. It hasn't provided any unique scientific insight, and isn't the type specimen for a new species. The "Archie" name has the ring of something coined by the marketing department, and without a reference to its use by the national press is pointless. All except the first paragraph read like marketing-speak and add nothing to the value of the article. Will every stuffed bird or preserved fish deserve an article of its own on Wikipedia?

Talk:Yakkity Yak

message: The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.
*Please expand the lead to conform with guidelines at Wikipedia:Lead. The article should have an appropriate number of paragraphs as is shown on WP:LEAD, and should adequately summarize the article.See footnote
*Consider adding more links to the article; per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links) and Wikipedia:Build the web, create links to relevant articles.
*Per Wikipedia:Context and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates), months and days of the week generally should not be linked. Years, decades, and centuries can be linked if they provide context for the article.
*Per WP:MOS, avoid using words/phrases that indicate time periods relative to the current day.  See footnote
*Per Wikipedia:What is a featured article?, Images should have concise captions.See footnote
*Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings), headings generally should not repeat the title of the article. For example, if the article was Ferdinand Magellan, instead of using the heading ==Magellan's journey==, use ==Journey==.
*Watch for redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's redundancy exercises.)
**Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant -  “some”, “a variety/number/majority of”, “several”, “a few”, “many”, “any”, and “all”. For example, “All pigs are pink, so we thought of a number of ways to turn them green.”
See footnote
*The article will need references. See WP:CITE and WP:V for more information.
*Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a. See footnote

message: This article is a complete mess. I have removed the factoid section on the pickaxe handles because it was filled with the most minor details, some which were either obviously false or just plain redundant.
One such one was "A pickaxe handle is typically wood and 3 feet long" and yet another was "Pickaxe handles have been used to fend off sharks while scuba diving".
Either way the article needs a hell of a lot more work especially the beginning as it is just a bunch of sentences mentioning one off notes about the pickaxe.

Talk:Bahía Kino

message: Hi Steve,
Here is the source for those figures:
Bracamonte, A. & R. Perez.  1999.  Pesca Ribereña y Actores Socialies: Los casos de Bahía Kino y de Punta Chueca en el Municipio de Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico.  Programa Golfo de California.  Documento para discussion interna.  Presentado a Conservación Internacional A. C. Mexico.
I believe this refers to the adult population.  So that means about 3 out of 10 adult Kinenos are involved in making and selling wood carvings.  That doesn't seem too far off based on my informal walking census of businesses in 2006.  But I am eager to see someone undertake another study since Bracamonte's work is now dated.
=====
Well, then, somebody did write that. (One would have to see how they did their research.) But I have been in and out of Kino Bay for years, and living here for the for a couple of months intenstively, and there is *so* much else that is going on economically, I really see the carving industry as way down in importance. I see some for sale in front of one restaurant, but there is just too much else going one --- the crab canning factory (which I haven't located), the stores, the restaurants, the many beer expendios, the hotels, the house construction, etc., that carving seems insignificant. 
=====
Can anyone locate the following to add:
-A map of Sonora that shows the location of Bahia de Kino
-a useful map of the community

However, the lack of sourcing is the main concern. Anyway  a map like article text does not get a free pass on WP:V and WP:RS. So please add a reliable (NON WIKI) source or this map will have to be removed in order to comply with WIKIPEDIA quality standards.

message: I believe we should have some sort of notability criteria for inclusion on this list. A criterion I've argued and seen successfully implemented on other such lists, is that someone should have a Wikipedia article about them to be listed. Then we push the problem of deciding who to list and who not to down to the poor souls following AFD, and we also give more incentives for articles about notable illustrators to be written, not just listed with a name. Right now I expect many of the entries currently listed with a red link to be the names of less notable illustrators, and maybe even some listed for vanity reasons. Comments?
