replies: text: I doubt that that information exists. All of the published data I've seen subsumes Cubans into wider regional groups (because there are so few of them in the UK). That's the case with the IPPR/BBC Born Abroad data, for example, and the ONS's Neighbourhood Statistics. All we really have from the census on Cuban-born people is the total number from the OECD spreadsheet referenced in the article. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:03, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  ballerinas vs. prima ballerinas vs. prima ballerina assolutas 

message: I have a few problems with this page:
1.  When a ballerina is added to Wikipedia and the category:ballerina is used, the name is added to this list... which is great... except it does not alphabetize the name correctly!  So when the page "Genia Melikova" was created and included the category:ballerina, the name was added under "G" for Genia rather than "M" for Melikova.  It seems like the name should be used as "Genia Melikova" so that it links with other references which use the same arrangement - such as The Juilliard School List of faculty.  There seem to be a number of names out of alphabetical order on the page.  Does anyone know how to fix this...  I am very new here so this edit is beyond my technical level!
FIXED:  By adding  to the Genia Melikova page, her name is now properly alphabetized on the List of Ballerinas.  (I found this code while checking out some other pages.)  Seamanjg  
2.  Some ballerinas who have attained the status of "Prima" or "Prima Absoluta" are already on this page - I assume because of the use of catgory:ballerina.  
3.  I think it is an excellent idea to combine the three pages - Ballerinas / Prima Ballerinas / Prima Ballerinas Absoluta - into a single list.  Naturally, each ballerina's full status should be documented.
Another user suggested this but then wrote a confusing message later. 
I think it is valuable to avoid redundancy whenever possible.  Combining the three pages would address this.
Thoughts? Help?  Ideas?  Thanks!

thread_title:  Problems with this page 

message: There are a number of female ballet dancers who are categorized as "Ballerina" but appear to have been merely in the corp de ballet.  Others, like Twyla Tharp, are female dancers but I find it hard to refer to them as "Ballerina's".
According to the article on Wikipedia:  "Although the term ballerina is commonly used informally to describe any female ballet dancer, it was a rank given only to the most exceptional female soloists. "
Anyone concerned about this?  Thanks.

Talk:KAOC

message: Per the WP:Disambig page, "If only a primary topic and one other topic require disambiguation, then disambiguation links are sufficient, and a disambiguation page is unnecessary." Since the radio station call letters are the primary identification and the ICAO code reference to an airport is a secondary identification, a hat note is sufficient and requires no more steps than would a disambiguation page for people seeking the airport. It's not about which subject is more famous, just that the radio station is primarily identified by this name while the airport is primarily identified by its full name with the ICAO code only a secondary reference to that airport. - Dravecky (talk) 21:50, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Line officer

message: General Line Officer and general line (military) are missing. I attempted to do something, but my expertise was sufficient only for disambiguation of general line. Dzied Bulbash (talk) 00:36, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[General Line Officer]] 

message: A much more probable origin of the term "line officer" is the drawn up lines of opposing armies of 18th century and earlier Europe. Officers commanding infantry and artillery units in the battle lines were "officers of the line", as opposed to officers serving in support functions who did not have direct contact with the enemy.   Allan Akbar (talk) 11:59, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  '''History''' 

message: In discussing line officers in the Navy, this article states: "Line officers wear an inverted gold star above their rank stripes on their dress blue uniforms and, in the case of Captains and below, on their shoulder boards in whites. Line officer admirals will wear solid gold shoulder boards with a silver metallic thread anchor and one, two, three or four silver metallic thread stars below the anchor. When wearing khakis or utility/working uniforms, they wear their rank insignia on both collar points. The Navy refers to non-line officers as Staff Corps officers. Both Line and Staff Corps officers may be assigned as "staff officers" serving on the staff of a senior officer. Staff Corps officers wear their corps insignia, rather than the line officer's star, placed over their sleeve/shoulder board stripes on blues and whites and on their left collar point on khakis and utility/working uniforms in lieu of matching pin-on rank insignia on the right collar point." Is half of the section devoted to the uniform of line officers really necessary?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.158.48.16 (talk) 12:17, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clothing Makes the Man...er, Officer

message: It appears no one has taken a look at this page in quite some time. I would like to point out that the term "Line Officer" is and was in broader use than strictly the United States Military. There are exhaustive uses of it throughout several (predominantly European, though not exclusively) militaries. Not to mention, it has been used as a rank in some intelligence services. The article ought to be updates to reflect this, but I don't know what a major overhaul like that would look like. Uhtregorn (talk) 05:25, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
