Talk:Elections in Georgia (U.S. state)

message: I added the Attention template to this page because it contains little factual information, is somewhat POV (certainly seems to over-emphasize the importance of race), cites no sources, and is in general not a good example of a WP article. Although there's little useful information here now, I don't feel it necessarily needs to be deleted; the topic is worth an article, just... not this one. I'll put in some work to bring it up to standards, but I'm not an expert and could definitely use some serious help. Thanks for taking the time to check into this. --SuperNova |T|C| 04:29, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Attention template addition

message: I am concerned about the neutrality of this article, especially the "Modern times and the shift to Republican dominance" heading. Certain inclusions seem extraneous and unsourced; for example, why does the caption of Jimmy Carter describe him as "a descendant of Confederate veterans"? (I also don't see this information at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Carter, and either way it's an odd inclusion at best.)
For completion, it would probably also be a good idea to link the inclusion of Barry Goldwater with the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy.

thread_title:  Make 2 articles? 

message: Hi, I've proposed that Two-Faced (Tankard album) be merged into this article, if anything in the unreferenced page is worth merging. It doesn't seem to meet WP:NALBUM at all:
All articles on albums, singles or other recordings must meet the basic criteria at the notability guidelines, with significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject... An album requires its own notability, and that notability is not inherited and requires independent evidence. That an album is an officially released recording by a notable musician or ensemble is not by itself reason for a standalone article. Conversely, an album does not need to be by a notable artist to require a standalone article if it meets the general notability guideline.   Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article, space permitting.

Talk:Tiffany Kelly

message: The article says:
:Tiffany Kelly is the current Miss Massachusetts USA 2006. Crowned on November 19, 2006, Kelly will be one of the youngest delegates competing for the title of Miss USA in Baltimore, MD on April 21, 2006. The eighteen-year-old comes from Braintree, MA.
All bio articles should, if possible state somebody's brithdate.  If that's no available, the approximate year of birth.  Stating the age isn't good, as it makes the article obsolete.  Ideally, articles should try to be "timeless". --Rob 04:32, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually, I believe that's how the original US stereo version sounded.  I take it you're not an American based on your use of the word "whilst."  While it may sound odd, the stereo versions in the US were made from submaster tapes, and the quality wasn't as good as the original masters from the UK.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.149.203.252 (talk) 06:23, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Removal of POV and Capitol Records Rant 

message: I don't know how long I've had this collection, but I've only just found out that I've got the defective version (with stereo-to-mono mix-downs). However, while not the greatest of things, that doesn't seem to be the worst of it. From what I can tell, the Help! album is also missing two tracks (well, four) that were on the original, and listed on the packaging: "In the Tyrol" and "The Chase". Has anyone else experienced this, or am I just crazy (and/or in possession of a really defective disc)? —Gordon P. Hemsley→✉ 07:41, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Help! 

message: The following (in blockquote code) was added Aug 5 2007 by an anonymous editor, just before the "Incorrect mono mixes" header:
CORRECTION TO ABOVE PARAGRAPH: Only the Stereo American "Rubber Soul" was released on LP in two different masterings. Original USA stereo pressings contained the original George Martin mixes. Second USA pressings from the "East Coast", (specifically those pressed at Capitol's Jacksonville, Illinos plant) contain the reverbed Dave Dexter Jr. mixes. All are all in true stereo (none are in simulated stereo as the above paragraph alleges). These 2nd "East Coast" LP pressings were in total error. However, there was no recall due to the sheer number pressed. All USA stereo pressings thereafter contain the original George Martin mixes. Since these are what Capitol originally intended for release, this is what appears on "The Capitol Albums Vol.2". An unofficial Dr. Ebbett's CD of the Dexterized "East Coast" USA "Rubber Soul" has been released. Regarding "The Capitol Albums Vol.2": Putting the 1st "error" pressing" aside, there are no USA mastering differences to be heard on "Early Beatles", "Beatles VI" or "Help", either on LP or CD, as well as either in Mono or Stereo.
Personally, not being that interested in recording techniques, I've never heard of Dave Dexter Jr. despite being a fan of the Beatles since I was a lad (circa 1982). I don't know that the above is all that pertinant to this article, or even that the existing passage about Dexter's mixes is,  but perhaps someone can incorporate the above non-encylopedic passage into the existing article?

Talk:IC 342/Maffei Group

message: Regarding the distances that I just filled in, I can't tell for sure whether Perseus A is the same as Perseus 1 and Perseus B is the same as Perseus 2 (the letters being found on this page, and the numbers being found at  which identifies 1 and 2 with KKH 11 and KKH 12, respectively). Ardric47 04:46, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Perseus 1 and 2

message: I looked up the IC 342/Maffei Group at the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (using the name "IC 342 Group").  The database shows that the galactic longitude of the IC 342/Maffei Group is ~140° (i.e. it is located in almost the opposite direction from the center of the Milky Way).  The current version of the "Observing the IC 342/Maffei Group in the future" section suggests that the IC 342/Maffei Group is located at 0° (on the far side of the galaxy according to the text, or in the "obscured" region according to the diagram), which is incorrect.  I am therefore removing the section.
The reall issue with observing the IC 342/Maffei Group is that it lies within the plane of the Milky Way, so the dust within the Mily Way's disk obscured the group.  This is what should be described in the text. GeorgeJBendo 22:16, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Membership list revision

message: I have made a number of revisions to this page:
*I removed the verbose discussion of the member galaxies from the introductory paragraph.  It was redundant with the galaxy membership list.
*I revised the galaxy membership list using a refereed scientific journal article.  The older list apparently came from two websites created by amateur/ex-professional astronomers (see the following note).
*I removed the links to the seds.org and Atlas of the Universe websites.  These websites contained out-of-date information that would only confuse readers.
*I added a lengthy discussion on dust obscuration.  (One of this group's most notable attributes is that it is heavily obscured.)
Additional notes on looking up specific desginations in the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED):
*Objects labeled with "KK" may be found in NED using "[KK98]".
*Objects labeled with "KKH" may be found in NED using "kkh".
For example, a search on "KK 35" in NED should be done using "[KK98] 35".

thread_title:  Link to Category 

message: Steven Poole criticises nature writing as whimsy and borgeois escapism here and Richard Mabey refutes it here and both articles contain historical and topical references that are worth examining to make this article better. There is also this article referring to the early days of nature writing. George Monbiot could also be mentioned in this context. Just thought I'd log these so they don't get lost. I haven't, however, found much about nature writing earlier than the 18th century.  Tony Holkham (talk) 16:09, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I wonder if the last section could possibly be changed to be 'modern British nature writing' or similar. There were many great nature writers in the 20th century - including Gavin Maxwell and Henry Williamson. It seems a pity to leave them out. Some nature writing can surely be seen as a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, and later as s reaction to WW1. Just a thought.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:8003:34F0:C300:21C:B3FF:FEC6:12F7 (talk) 08:41, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Category talk:Members of the House of Commons of Canada

message: I think it would be useful to have categorisation which distinguishes present members of the House from former members.  I find this significantly more useful than the present scheme, which forces me to remember what province a current MP is from and then find them in a long (though alphabetical) list.
I'd like to get some suggestions on this before going ahead.  There are really three options:
# introduce a special subcategory for former members, and populate it with them
# introduce a special subcategory for present members, and populate it with them
# do both of the above.
For reference, I recently participated in a discussion on the French wikipedia on this subject.  Currently they implement option (1) above: there is one supercategory, :fr:Catégorie:Député fédéral canadien, and a subcat for former members, :fr:Catégorie:Ancien député fédéral canadien.
I would rule out (2), since I think we do need a category for former members.  It seems undesirable to require us to move a person up the category hierarchy when they leave office: it's losing information.
My preference would be for (3), i.e. to have both of the following subcats of  :Category:Members of the Canadian House of Commons:
*:Category:Current members of the Canadian House of Commons
*:Category:Historical members of the Canadian House of Commons
Is this overcategorisation?  Thoughts? --Saforrest 05:15, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. "Members of..." implies "current" and is misleading. For the time being I have changed the category description for Alberta and the North to read "current and former", which matches the descriptions of the other provincial categories. Which raises the question of whether this needs to be done at the provincial level too - I would think so. Outriggr 00:20, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
Talk:Winesburg, Holmes County, Ohio

message: The page for Winesburg, Ohio should probably go directly to the  novel rather than the unincorporated town. The MLA ranks it as the 24th best novel of all time, so it's slightly more notable.
Benplowman 07:54, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: But that's not the way things are usually done.  If nothing else, places seem generally to be notable inherently (we have to prove that they exist, but that's really easy), while books aren't.  The article for the "Big Apple" is New York City, but it really would be a bad idea to put the famous Sinatra song at New York, New York instead of at its current title, Theme from New York, New York.  It's the general pattern to have places at the simple name and other things with disambiguated names.  Nyttend 22:10, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: On the contrary, the actual rule is that the page should go to what people would most likely be searching for. In the case of New York, more people would be searching for the city than the song when entering in the name. In the case of Winesburg, Ohio more people would most likely be searching for the novel than the location when entering in the name, i.e. the novel in this case is actually more well known than the place.
