Talk:Alaska Commercial Company

message: I lived in Dutch Harbor twenty-five years ago; the store was then known as Alaska Commercial Co., contrary to what the article currently says.

replies: text: I'd also have to look for the sources to confirm this, but I'm pretty sure that the company sold its holdings there to Carl Moses back in the 1960s.  The NC Company of old had largely divested of its holdings during the 1960s and 1970s.  The only present-day business which is regarded as being a lineal successor is NC Machinery, which is Alaska's Caterpillar dealer (as the old NC had been for many decades).  The store you're referring to may have been operated under that name by a(n unrelated) successor entity. RadioKAOS  –  Talk to me, Billy  07:32, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: Removal of all uncited material was tried before, and I think it really rather made the page seem restricted, if not partisan anti-Teach First. While secondary, rather than primary sources should be preferred, most of what I re-added of the unsourced material can be found in Wigdortz's book. see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Teach_First&oldid=665238431 for such a version, I think in the absence of good sources for everything, a position of seeing the page as a work in progress should be maintained. As for my recent edits, I apologise if they don't meet your criteria for what should constitute an edit. For (a/b) the article to me does make a clear link that Teach First has been cited as a reason for the "London effect", whether it uses a press release rather than full article quite frankly means it's a Sunday evening and I'm not especially into looking very deeply into it. Secondly I was merely looking for a citation to remove a citation needed template, feel free to polish it as you see fit. Thirdly, clearly you have much more stringent ideas of what should be used as source material, and in what capacity than I (In this case, I don't really see why independence matters in this instance).Lacunae (talk) 20:00, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Abruptum

message: The band should be kept due to its significance/prominence in the Norwegian Black Metal scene, especially the member It (real name Tony Sarkka) who was involved in the Satanic Black Circle at the time of Oystein Aarseth's demise. Oystein himself has been quoted as saying that Abruptum was "the audial embodiment of Pure Black Evil [sic]"
Their albums have been reviewed by websites which cater to people who like black metal and dark ambient music. Many of their professional reviews have noted the band's commitment to pure noise and have noted their music as some of the most difficult to listen to. They are also noteworthy to be included on Allmusic (with a short biography included) and have been mentioned in Michael Moynihan's book Lords of Chaos: The Bloody Rise of the Satanic Metal Underground.
While the article is not that large, I AM currently scouring the internet for more information on the band as well as helpful links to professional reviews. --Progkeeg 06:24, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

message: This article not only sounds like an ad, it is written from the point of view of an insider (note "our" and other usage). If there is a source for the BEARS project information at the detail shown, I have not been able to find it, indicating that this may well be an "inside job". It also contains a lot of point of view words, like "spectacular." In addition, the photos are on the Web site, which makes their attribution and copyright status here somewhat suspicious. I am going to start deleting things soon on the basis of point of view and original research unless I see some citations for the information that is being placed here, as well as some PoV rewriting. If either Zooaction or 209.112.219.57 are employees (I'm guessing that these are actually the same person), then this is a conflict of interest and you should cease and desist.

Talk:Alaska Public Media

message: I reverted the following: "AK was an award winning program broadcast by APRN from 2002 to 2008".  First, AK still airs, but as a segment on the Friday edition of Alaska News Nightly.  Second, ANN has aired five days a week since 1978, or in other words, for a whole lot longer than AK.  For the latter reason alone, did it ever possibly occur to anyone that mentioning ANN would be a logical starting point in our coverage of APM, rather than yet again automatically giving undue weight to something merely because someone bothered to write an article about it and no one else has endeavored to have that article deleted?  With all the COI issues this article has had, that just might be something to think about, specifically with respect to whether our coverage of this entity leans more on the side of information or of promotion. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions  14:20, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you indeed for taking the time to explain.  Many editors do not bother.   However, sorry RadioKAOS, but I do not follow your logic. If the AK article is that bad why do you not just put it up for WP:AFD yourself.  Or, why not just add your sentence/s re ANN to the APM article yourself to provide the exact context you provide just above?  Surely it is better to have the AK article linked into the APM article so that people can find it a bit more often so that it might get attended to, rather than just people stumbling onto the orphan and thinking it is all okay?  I will state up front that I am from Canberra in Australia and freely admit to knowing almost nothing about Alaska, so subject to any advice to contrary will defer to you knowledge re anything Alaskan.  However, as a wikipedian, there is nothing in the articles to indicate that my edit was inappropriate, in fact the contrary, I strongly suggest it was a "good" wikiedit.  So unless the articles are changed to make it different, I am very inclined to put my edit back.  I see you tag yourself as an inclusionist.  I would also categorise myself that way.   I presume therefore you would prefer to keep the article, fixed, rather than have it deleted?  Looking forward to your comment/s.  Regards.  Eno Lirpa (talk) 10:57, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

message: WikiProject Biography Summer 2007 Assessment Drive
I've changed the assessment from "Start" to "B" class. "Start" is nonsense for this comprehensive, learned, and well-written article, which certainly does not need "Substantial/major editing" or to have "most material for a complete article" added, per the definition of "Start class". "B" doesn't fit that well either, as it's by no means true that "Considerable editing is still needed, including filling in some important gaps or correcting significant policy errors," but it's the closest I can do.

Over time, the Xie's were referred to as "Sese", and eventually they adopted it, also due to the "Chinese Tax" implemented in our country.  --- Laibcoms (talk | Contribs) 13:05, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Why has no one mentioned the meaning of this surname? Not all Chinese last names have a meaning, but a few do (mostly animals like "bear" or "horse": Xiong and Ma, or other well-known concepts like "field" and "hair" and "king": Tian, Mao, and Wang). This one actually means "thanks". Not only is the Pinyin the same, the character in Chinese would literally chalk your name up to be, Mr., Ms., or Mrs. Thanks... A bit freaky, but true. I am not sure how these surnames came to be. Anyway, added that definition as many other Chinese surname articles have that in there. I don't see a reason not to have it added; a language with no alphabet which has over 1.3 billion people and over 40,000 characters should be proof enough. ★Dasani★ 01:49, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Almost every Chinese surname does, according to Wiktionary, but there are only a dozen or so that happen to be this obvious.
