Talk:Bob Boozer

message: Bob Boozer's ability as a player were never in question. Boozer was an agile 6'8 230-pounder with good shooting range who could have an impact at either end of the floor.
He played for the AAU Peoria Caterpillars to remain eligible for the 1960 U.S. Olympic team. Politics got a number of questionable non-NCAA players on that all-amateur team. But Boozer wasn't one of them. He belonged legitimately.
The Cincinnati Royals had a strong interest in that Olympic team, and in regional stars, with Boozer playing AAU ball in Illinois. Other Olympians on that team were Oscar Robertson, of Indiana and U. of Cincinnati, Jerry Lucas from Ohio State, Adrian Smith, who played at Kentucky, and Jay Arnette, an Olympian from Texas. 
Boozer wan an integral part of the 1962-63 Royals team that took the Boston Celtics a full seven games in the East Final. All that team needed was a little more help to become NBA champions.
When Jerry Lucas arrived the following year, the Royals were nearly there. But then the Royals inexplicably traded Boozer away to New York, ending their own title threat. In Oscar Robertson's bio ' The Big O ', the trade is shown as part of a string of misguided moves by the team. Lucas felt the trade robbed the Royals a chance to be one of the great NBA teams. Boozer had claimed not unhappy in his reserve role and did not seek the trade.
Being black was at root in Boozer's moves about the league, first to expansion Chicago, then expansion Milwaukee. When he ended up in Milwaukee, former Royals Wayne Embry and Oscar Robertson had sought him out. Another former Royal, Jon McGlocklin, also joined the Bucks, who won the 1971 NBA title. 
It wasn't the career the good but not great NBA forward could have had. But he did get his ring. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jerjets11 (talk • contribs) 05:40, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

The portrait accompanying the list of battle of the Genovese galleys is also of the elder Doria, so its relevance is qustionable.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.67.88.218 (talk) 15:15, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Opposition/Peckham 

message: I came across this page whilst looking at a number of pages about public transport in London and was struck by "in London, UK,".  As well as being clumsy the "UK" is not necessary as when you say London the vast majority of people will think of the capital of England.
So I removed it saying "The UK is rather redundant as this is [the] London that most readers will think of".  As evidence of this London points to the capital of England.  All the others Londons are qualified but this one is not.
 Ground_Zero reverted my change saying "this provides clarity for the minority that think of one of the other Londons around the world" 
I don't think that such a major city needs to be qualified and this is not done in other cases and is even omitted in some, e.g Baker_Street_and_Waterloo_Railway, Bakerloo_line, Bakerloo_line_extension_to_Camberwell, Crossrail.  Similarly  PATH assumes the user knows where New York is.
If anyone is unsure which London is being talked about then all they need to do is click on the link although the context (reference to London Underground, various places, moderately well known people such as Ken Livingstone and Boris Johnson) will make that unnecessary in all but a few cases.

message: I may have asked this before, but was the game officially licenced from the film? I understand that it borrows the name, theme tune, and general idea, and that Ocean/Imagine later specialised in film licences, but I was always under the impression that this game was not an official movie tie-in. The article is ambiguous. I don't have the packaging to hand, to check. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk)
:The cassette inlay does not credit United Artists anywhere, just Ocean and Denton. However, various magazines at the time did claim it was a licence (Your Computer issue 8610, Computer Gamer issue 22, for example) Without the film company being credited in the game or game inlay, I suspect this is actually just an "inspired by". I'll investigate further - perhaps there is a "making of" article somewhere. Marasmusine (talk) 08:11, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Query on the naming of this page:
Various forms of the name had been used in the articles on the Hussite Wars; given the  Naming Conventions, should this be "Čeněk von Wartenberg" or "Čeněk of Wartenberg"?
Each part of the name seems to have slight variations:
Čeněk  (Appropriate diacriticals for Czech)
Cenek  (sans diacriticals)
von    (German?)
of     (English, but it's not really an English name...)
from   (presumably a lit. trans. of the German)
(I haven't seen it, but I believe that 'z' would be the appropriate Czech for this part of the name)
Wartenberg   (most common spelling I have seen)
Wartemberk   (quite unusual spelling)
Wartenburg   (less unusual spelling)
(Again, I assume there's a different Czech spelling of the name of the town, but I haven't come across it)
