Bay of Fundy

OK, I've spent a few minutes reviewing the articles, my knowledge of Polio, and Franklin D. Roosevelt's paralytic illness (a very poorly sourced article). There is no way that a fall into the Bay of Fundy led to polio, if that is in fact what the man had. Polio is a virus transmitted from person-to-person, not a fall into chilly water. The sources in the article do not indicate that fall was causal, because it couldn't be (unless the Bay is filled with polio virus, which is improbable). So, I stand by my reversion, and now will have to clean up the FDR article, which I guess is a good thing. OrangeMarlin Talk• Contributions 22:02, 2 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Qais al-khonji

Hi Escape Orbit:

I saw your talk page note. Anyone that busy dating, marrying, advising the wealthy, and so on, is too busy and probably too exhausted to edit Wikipedia.

It seems you were editing over the top of me whilst I was further reverting the anon users edit. Nearly gave me Palpitations when my save page did not work, I will adjust my edit and try again. :o) Richard Harvey (talk) 15:14, 8 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Vandalisam

Were you montioring my user page for vandalism?  :-) I saw that someone posted the threat, but hadn't had time to look into it. Thanks for removing! Wallstreethotrod (talk) 19:45, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Er...

Are you sure that User talk:KesslerRonald is THE Ronald Kessler, and not just someone registered as such? I'd take it to UAA, but I figgered since you've edited his article several times, you might know...

Mariah Carey

I removed the fact tags, because in the REFERENCES list is a source for all the statements!!!Reidlos (talk) 22:14, 18 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I cited the sources like you wanted it, but the fact tags for the sentences about the top five position of I Know What You Want and the chart position for U Make Me Wanna are senseless, because in the reference list are thousand sites, where you can easily look them up.Reidlos (talk) 15:02, 19 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

How can this page have been edited so much, yet not have a single cite?

Answer: Most of the edits are vandalism and reversion of vandalism. Such usually tends to preserve inferior versions of articles as everyone is in defence rather than development mode. Good work on the changes btw :) Orderinchaos 20:12, 21 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Another One Bites The Dust - Rocky 3

I googled this stuff and I came up with a couple possible verifications: http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/united-artists/rocky-iii-790755.html?r=RSS - This one is from a newspaper & http://www.jimpeterik.com/btseot2006.htm - This one is from Jim Peterik's website (he is the songwriter of eye of the tiger) Here are the blurbs from each website respectively if you don't want to skim through all the articles.

  1. Before settling on the film's signature song of "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor, Sylvester Stallone wanted to use the already hit song "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen.#
  2. We were immediately knocked out by the power of the quick-cut visuals. We were also struck with how well the action worked with the temp music they had supplied - "Another One Bites The Dust" by Queen. I remember shaking my head and saying, "How are we ever going to beat that one?"#

If you think this is enough information please cite these as references and add them to the articles. Alas, I don't know how to cite facts myself. By the way, thanks for checking on this regularly. 78.69.235.75 (talk) 17:39, 22 March 2008 (UTC)Jerry Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Another_One_Bites_the_Dust" Categories: Start-Class Queen articles | High-importance Queen articles | WikiProject Songs articles | Start-

I've already posted this on the Another One Bites the Dust Discussion page but you haven't checked it out. What do you think about this? This is from Jerry (I can't find those wavy things on this computer).

sensored info on cassie (singer) disc page

WP:BLP

You asked for help on this. One of the first lines of WP:BLP states;

Editors must take particular care adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page.

Note the emphasis on any. I don't know the content of the removed material, but if it fails WP:BLP, it shouldn't be on a talk page the same as it shouldn't be on an article page. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 17:08, 1 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank You. The content doesnt fail. The contest was various things: [redacted] info on her risque oral sex inuendo music vid ( she did ). So why is sensoring this true info allowed? 70.108.103.64 (talk) 17:12, 1 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
You have no idea what that word even means. None of the redacted content was sourced. Find verifiable references from reliable sources and you can replace it, no problem. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 17:24, 1 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

freckles in culture (short version)

Don't be so strict about finding references in that issue about freckles in culture. The attitude towards freckles really has changed in the last 30-40 years. (I would refer you to german music about freckles (sommersprossen) but I guess that wouldn't help. - I don't have any english examples for it, though.)

Why is it bad to refer to Luci Lu - I thought it was a nice example (not mine originally, though)Gerriet42 (talk) 13:15, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

It's bad because it is uncited and your (or some-one's) personal opinion. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 15:53, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Kate Craig-Wood inclusion in list of transgendered

I had not finished submitting the detailed page, which is perhaps why you removed the entry.

It may seem a little arrogant to add oneself, but a quick google for "kate craig-wood" will show that I fit the criteria for a listing on that page. I am listed on Lynn Conway's TS successes page as well if that is any help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Khcw77 (talkcontribs) 21:19, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
