Talk:HMS Toronto (1799)

message: This article should probably be renamed HMS Toronto (1799) for consistency with ships with identical names leading off a  at the undisambiguated name. There was also a HMS Toronto (1834) launced as Sir Charles Adam in 1834, purchased by the RN in 1838, named Toronto in 1839, sold in 1843.

thread_title: Name

message: Hmmm.  The article on Ned Hanlan says he was born to "Irish parents" in 1855.  I checked, just in case the Hanlan's family history in Toronto really did stretch back to prior to 1811.  Since it doesn't I suggest it is a mistake for the article to say the vessel was "wrecked off Hanlan's Point in 1811".  It could say something like the vessel was "wrecked off the western tip of the Toronto Islands, near what is now known as Hanlan's Point."  
We have old maps from the period, and I have a vague recollection the western tip was then called "Gibraltar Point"
There has been a lot of landfill in the last 200 years.  The original sandbank terminated in a fan of long narrow northward pointing fingers.
The actual spot of the wreck could be considerably inland of the current Hanlan's Point.  Geo Swan (talk) 20:26, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Management of dyslexia

message: This article was previously "List of treatments for dyslexia". See old discussion page. Piechjo (talk) 11:53, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: First we need too have sections for alphabetic orthogrpahy and nonalphabetic orthography, because the causes of dyslexia are different, and therefore require different managemant systems.
Most of the currunt content refers only to aphabetic orthography so this should all go in to a new Alphabet Orthography section.
The main reason for starting this article was to move this whole topic from the main Dyslexia article so that the this the Managment of Dyslexia would be a seperate but related article which is included on the dyslexia template.

message: This article quotes the phrase "provocative marriage" with no explanation or citation for what made the marriage "provocative".  When you do a google search, at least as of May 2015, for "aldous laura huxley provocative marriage" the only references are to wikipedia and the film documenting their relationship.  My guess: it is a phrase from promotional materials for the film and was used here because it sounded neat.
I think use of this phrase, without reference or citation, is wrong.  I would move to eliminate it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.123.44.153 (talk) 17:05, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

General expansion would be good as currently the article has no section longer than a paragraph; in particular more on the campus and history is sensible. I notice that the info-box is not actually an info-box but a table, this will need to be converted to a standard info-box, see WP:SCH for the selection available.

Talk:Hellcats over the Pacific

message: Much of the history section of this article is adapted from several lengthy e-mails between Eric Parker and myself  in 2004. I was clear that the e-mails were going to be adapted into an article, which at the time I intended for my own web site, which is now static. I used the same materials to make this article instead.
So here's the question: how do you reference this? Some of the same topics were covered in another e-interview he gave in the late 1990s, so there is some overlapping confirmation, but given that the e-mails were sent to me personally, what should I do with them?

Talk:Merchant Shipping Act 1988

message: This entry needs to be improved. 
The Act was not “an Act of Parliament passed by the Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher“ for Acts of Parliament are not passed by  government. Nor is the use of the present tense appropriate, given that the Act was long ago repealed. To say that “it was aimed to prevent foreign fishing fleets from fishing in British territorial waters“ is misleading: the vast bulk of the Act had nothing to do with that issue.  Again, it is inaccurate to say that “In the Factortame case, its provisions were disapplied by the House of Lords...“. The vast bulk of the Act was unaffected by that decision and certainly was not “disapplied.“  — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThomasBabbington1950 (talk • contribs) 13:46, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  There's no Chris de Burgh cameo in "The Priest and the Beast" 

message: It seems that this article is using colours in the infobox which don't satisfy Wikipedia's accessibility guidelines. The contrast between the foreground colour and the background colour is low, which means that it may be difficult or impossible for people with visual impairments to read it.
To correct this problem, a group of editors have decided to remove support for invalid colours from Template:Infobox television season and other television season templates after 1 September 2015. If you would still like to use custom colours for the infobox and episode list in this article after that date, please ensure that the colours meet the WCAG AAA standard.
To test whether a colour combination is AAA-compliant you can use Snook's colour contrast tool. If your background colour is dark, then please test it against a foreground colour of "FFFFFF" (white). If it is light, please test it against a foreground colour of "000000" (black). The tool needs to say "YES" in the box for "WCAG 2 AAA Compliant" when you input the foreground and the background colour. You can generally make your colour compliant by adjusting the "Value (%)" fader in the middle box.
Please be sure to change the invalid colour in every place that it appears, including the infobox, the episode list, and the series overview table. If you have any questions about this, please ask on Template talk:Infobox television season. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 05:30, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Category talk:Mathematicians

message: Rwwww removed :Category:Mathematicians from its parent category :Category:Mathematical science occupations stating that people are not occupations. I'm reverting that deletion and putting the category back in its occupations parent tree. Please discuss below. 
Two major reasons: 
# For the logic categorization that Rwww mentioned -- First, not every subcategory is a logical subpart of its parent category; they may indicate other types of relationships. See WP:CAT, but basically categories are not simply logical part/subpart trees. They also indicate other kinds of relationships. 
# Related to the general principles of categorization -- if you look through wikipedia, you will see that whenever a category exemplifies or includes multiple concepts, there are parent categories for each of the individual concepts. So "people by occupation" is in both "people" and in "occupation".  Here, "mathematicians" is in "mathematical occupations" and "people by occupation". Please observe, :Category:People by occupation is located within :Category:Occupations, and in every subject-specific category, the relevant people practicing this occupation category is located within the occupation category.  The mathematicians/mathematical occupations division is the more subject-specific instance of this example.
# Most importantly, if one is browsing the occupation category, one should be able to easily get to people who practice that occupation.  Similarly if one is browsing people by an occupation one should easily get to the occupation tree.
