Hi! It's a fair question. The answer is that that editor/those editors (don't know if there's one or two, but it looks like one with two names) not only spammed about a hundred links to the Getty archive, but in almost every case copied the archive description verbatim from that source (please follow the link I left in my edit summary for confirmation). That is the copyvio. If you want to add the Getty link back the article please feel free to do so; but please remove the copyvio which you have (inadvertently) restored. I've not opened a CCI about this so far, but if you feel that my judgement should receive some "official" scrutiny, I'm more than happy to do so.

Good evening Martin!
I apologize for misusing the NPOV template. I thought I had posted my explanation on the talk page, but when I went back there were no comments from me there, which makes it look like a drive by. I must have gotten distracted and not finished.
I will post a detailed commentary later this week.
I know and respect Dr. Healy, but I think the article needs to reflect that his point of view is not universally accepted, and I'm concerned that his opinions and value judgments are being presented as undisputed facts throughout the article.
In many ways my argument is a simple one: WP:NPOV requires that the article weigh different points of view according to the extent to which they are adhered to by experts in the field. If Dr. Healy's point of view were universally accepted or even a majority viewpoint, the world would be a very different place and he would be part of the establishment rather than an outside critic of the system. Thus I think other points of view need to be represented in the article.
I look forward to an enjoyable and intellectually stimulating discussion.

So it seems that he was born in Southowram, or at least was baptised there. So is it also true to say he was born in Halifax. The Southowram article itself says that it is east of Halifax and not in it. I guess this was also true in 1832. I'm not surprised if Halifax wishes to claim him as an important son.

Sir Galahad, a typical hero Hero is in general importance an admirable person who perform great deeds, and thus gaining great honour and glory. In Greek mythology called the heroes heroes (ἥρωι), from where many languages had his word for hero, as well as Swedish words heroic and heroism (heroism). The Greek heroerna often had divine descent, which is common even among heroes in other mythologies.
Literary significance[editing wikitext]
The main character in a narrative literary work is the character whose actions and destiny in her administration's red thread. Originally, there was no contradiction with the general definition, but then the aesthetics changed notably since the term realism has also been repealed failed people, people in tragic circumstances, evil people, and even people who don't do anything at all and not have anything fancy. Among works with such heroes include Kafka's the process, Louise Boije af Gennäs clean house, Samuel Beckett's waiting for Godot, Tolstoy's Anna Karenina .

Hello Martin, I can see that you have an interest in the New Boots and Panties!! article. :-) I hope you don't feel I've been treading on your toes with my edits – I'm just trying to organise the article along the lines of the Wikipedia album article style guide, with the objective of getting it up to good article status at some point. I'd like to get as many as possible of the classic British punk/postpunk/new wave/synthpop albums from 1977 to 1985 up to (or at least close to) GA status, as this is obviously a musical time and place that Wikipedia doesn't cover very well at all, as it's hard to get hold of a lot of the original articles, interviews and reviews.
I must admit I'm not entirely sure about using block quotes in the album review section, but maybe that's just my personal preference – if the article ever goes up for GA nomination we'll see what the other reviewers think. When I'm back in the UK over the summer I'll try and head down to the British Library and dig out the original reviews of the album from the music press, at least to try and put critics' names and dates to the reviews. I should also get hold of the Ian Dury biographies at some point so the references can be more accurately quoted with page numbers, etc. Cheers. Richard3120 ( talk) 17:50, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

I know the instinct is to praise someone after they have died but Rik Mayall wasnt universally loved.

Hi Ceoil ( talk) 20:26, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
Sorry I prematurely undid your change to the 2014 FIFA World Cup#Cooling breaks section. I read it too fast and thought you removed it altogether. I still think stating the temperature at the start of the game (which is below 32°) appears to be a contradiction of the rule and think it's important to state the criteria that went into making the decision. I also thin the AP article is overstating the the fact the the breaks are "supposed to occur in the 30th and 75th minutes". The way I read your FIFA sourced article, the breaks could take place "anytime after" the 30th and 75th minute. I'm still looking for a better source that will include all of this information.

Hi Martinevans123. In response to your recent edit summary on the article Béla Bartók, I really have no idea of the number of articles that use parenthetical referencing (I assume your question is directed at this general style, rather than the particular dialect of it found in the Bartók article). Certainly not as many as those using either of the other two main classes of references (full footnotes and shortened footnotes), but a substantial number, especially on 20th-century-music and music-theory topics. A few important articles in these areas using parenthetical referencing are Tonality, Atonality, Timbre, Mode (music), Serialism, Neoclassicism (music), Musique concrète, Experimental music, New Simplicity; Milton Babbitt, Frank Bridge, Mauricio Kagel, Luigi Nono, Arnold Schoenberg, Karlheinz Stockhausen; Antony and Cleopatra (opera), Capricorn Concerto, Klang (Stockhausen) (and most of the other articles on specific works by this composer), Le marteau sans maître, Octet (Stravinsky), Piano sonatas (Boulez), List of string quartets by Béla Bartók, Symphony No. 3 (Harris), Symphony No. 1 (Davies) (and the other nine Davies Symphony articles), Quatre études de rythme, Wind Quintet (Schoenberg).— Jerome Kohl ( talk) 23:25, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

One of the pieces of trivia about Tommy is that John Lennon has a cameo role in it. Some people have insisted that he is an occupant of one of the cars in I'm Free (YouTube video here, screenshot of 1:36 here). On closer examination it probably isn't him, but more importantly, Lennon is not known to have left the USA during the early 1970s, as he was worried that if he did, he would not be granted a visa to get back in again. [68] Lennon was finally granted a Green card in 1976. The seaside and holiday camp scenes in Tommy were filmed in the Portsmouth area in the summer of 1974. It is almost inconceivable that Lennon could have turned up on the set of the film with no-one remembering it. See also Talk:Tommy_(1975_film)#John_Lennon.3F.-- ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 11:53, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
If GabeMc hadn't retired, I could have pulled him in here and got him to dig out at least three reliable sources that stated Lennon left for New York in 1971 and never returned to Britain.

You're forgiven. But there's little point in this conversation. As a Wikipedian, I kinda have to say, yeah, children are just people. As a father, well, children are very special people and it breaks my heart to think of these ones (and the ones in Gaza, and everywhere else). A Dutch reporter listed in de Volkskrant what all objects he found there. One object was a little notebook; the child had practiced writing "ananas" ("pineapple"). Another thing he found in a field was a little bright orange shirt with, you guessed it, graphics from the Dutch football team on it. I imagine it was a bright orange football shirt very much like the bright orange football shirt my boy was wearing when we were watching the Netherlands against Argentina. He's not even two, so he doesn't know when to cheer and for whom, but he's learning. Just humans, but special ones. Drmies ( talk) 23:00, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
FL330 is approximately 33,000 ft above mean sea level and not exactly because it is set relative to a standard barometric pressure and is not relative to the ground. This is to ensure that all aircraft in an area agree on their altitude even though the local pressure would indicate otherwise. When an aircraft drops out of the flight levels the altimeter is set to the local pressure and indicates the actual height above Mean Sea Level. FL330 will only equal 33,000 ft above sea level when the local air pressure at sea level happens to be exactly 1013.25 hPa and, furthermore, will only equal the height above ground when a pressure is set at the airfield that causes the altimeter to then read zero.

Hello M. I hope that you are well and that the summer season was good to you. I read the section header but not the paragraph. My bad and I am glad you were there to catch it. OTOH I am always leery of "similar" statements as they often aren't. The source provided makes no mention of Linder being inspired by Chaplin though. I came upon it when an IP moved the item from the beginning to the end of the paragraph but, since CC's film was made first do you think we should move it back? I think that The Floorwalker is on one of my other Chaplin DVDs - if so I will try and watch it and make any changes as needed. Also, if you are a fan of DS I would highly recommend a read of this book if you have the time and inclination.

Thanks for the visit and edits, much appreciated. I've reworded the section about the Salon Exhibition at the Louvre, because the Salon was something very specific (for which there is an article at Salon (Paris) ) and after you left, the introductory paragraph ended up with two 'as a result of's' in the same sentence, so I've changed that too. I did prefer my original 'subsequently' because I thought it conveyed the sense of a passage of time between the disaster and the filing of the claim for compensation (disaster = April 1912, compensation claims accepted from January 1913), so unless you strongly advise against it, I would like to revert that edit? Other changes I completely agree with, thanks. Kind regards. Hogarthianista ( talk) 18:23, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi Martin,
Can you please see my comment on the Talk Page over at Talk:Auregnais? The Auregnais article really needs correcting, as the mistake appears to have been there for a very long time. Sorry, I wouldn't usually ask you, but I often see errors and have no idea what the correct protocol is, beyond leaving a comment on the Talk Page. Many thanks to you. Sorry for being rude to you earlier in the year. Alrewas ( talk) 10:49, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi Martin, yes, quite possibly. I wasn't sure what to do here, perhaps I should have sought advice first. I wanted to add the section about the painting size because, all over the web, the size which appeared on the claim form (8'x 4')is stated factually as 'the size of the painting' even though it cannot possibly be. If I leave the factual parts of the paragraph (contents of claim form and sizes of extant paintings are verifiable by checking museum and public gallery sizes, etc) but leave out the final, concluding sentence (leaving readers to draw their own conclusions), would that be satisfactory? For future reference, can I say 'see talk' in the main article for minor controversies and inconsistencies, etc?
Also, since you take an interest in such things, I would be grateful for any feedback regarding the substantial updating I've done recently of the Merry-Joseph Blondel page. It is now substantially more detailed and better researched than the French page on this painter, so can I now remove the 'contains material translated from the French' label from the talk page? And what would I have to do, in your opinion, to upgrade it from a 'start' quality article? Have I achieved that with my update? Any advice will be much appreciated. regards Hogarthianista ( talk) 15:43, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Is it just me that finds this strange ? The BBC and The Times report her age at the date of death as 64. The one reference that seemingly cited 1948 as her birth year has been replaced by a (citation needed} tag, yet Wiki still has the article showing her birth year as 1948. It hardly accords with the, usually very reliable, cited references.

My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk,
Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains
One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk:
’Tis not through envy of thy happy lot,
But being too happy in thine happiness,—
That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees,
In some melodious plot
Of beechen green, and shadows numberless,
Singest of summer in full-throated ease.
First stanza of "
Ode to a Nightingale",
May 1819
My heart aches and a drowsy numbness pains
My senses, as though an anteater I'd seen ...
(panic spreads and the audience half rise)
A nasty long-nosed brute
(screams from the audience)
With furry legs and sticky darting tongue
I seem to feel its cruel jaws
Crunch crunch there go my legs
Snap snap my thorax too
(various screaming women faint)
My head's in a twain, there goes my brain
Swallow, swallow, swallow, slurp

I take your point. However, the article is badly titled in my opinion as it separates the Daily ~ from the Sunday ~ (the latter having its own article which could just as well be a section within the main Telegraph page) which is not a distinction made in the online version. The article says: "Telegraph.co.uk is the online version of the newspaper. It includes articles from the print editions of The Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Telegraph". which is an increasingly archaic way of looking at it - these days news articles are written with all the various media in mind and the printed version is likely to become a minority format (if it isn't already).

Hey Martin,
You asked in your edit summary of lunar effect "what's a "significant ordinary effect"?" What I meant by that is what the first sentence of the article says: "simply (...) variation in light levels", because that is the only real difference between a full moon and a non-full moon: it just reflects more light from the Sun. Significant, but pretty ordinary compared to the claims described in the article. Greetings, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 23:01, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Martin, How are you? I just had a small question to ask you. I saw your edits on the Mel Giedroyc Wiki page, but saw that you had removed a few commas after dates., for example instead of saying "On 14 October, it was announced" you changed it to "On 14 October it was announced". I was just curious as to why you did that as I was taught in those situations to add a comma after the date. Is it a British versus a North American thing? I have checked various web pages from the UK and Canada, where there was a comma after a date. I was just curious. 74.15.186.97 ( talk) 20:51, 18 November 2014 (UTC)samusek2

Before reverting anything, I wanted to ask the opinion of the user who did the edit in the first place.

The concept of aesthetics has been the interest of philosophers such as Pluto, Hume and Cant, who understood aesthetics as something pure and searched the essence of beauty, or, the ontology of aesthetics. But it was not before the beginning of the cultural sociology of early 19th century that the question was problematized in its social context, which took the differences and changes in historical view as an important process of aesthetical thought Hafspajen ( talk) 20:57, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi Martin. I've been reading archaeology quite intensely for over fifteen years now. In this field, a "squeeze" is a very common NOUN, not a verb, as you correctly have noticed. A typical sentence: "After the Mesha Stele was shattered by its Bedouin finders, the only way of restoring it was by using the squeeze taken by Salem al-Khoury." No archaeologist will ever ask you "using the WHAT?" if you tell him that. I'm just one step away from an important graduation exam, Wikipedia is a very useful tool for me sometimes and I make amendments when I think it's very much needed, but for now I don't have the time to write articles or alike. Once I take my exam, we can see about that. It seems to me quite common that terms marked as "article non existent" work like challenges to people with more time than me, who might otherwise not stop and consider writing one. It does not harm anyone in any way, so please, let's make this our last dialogue on this specific topic, shall we? I thank you. I hope we'll both soon find an article about the technique of taking a squeeze on Wik. Or not, one can only do so much. Now back to my studies. Have a great day!

Hi Martin, Spotted your revert on Clifton Suspension Bridge - edit edit said suicide with todays date - I can't see anything on BBC news etc - it is probably just vandalism but could this be something someone is about to do - should we take it to ANI or somewhere?— Rod talk 20:23, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi! It's a fair question. The answer is that that editor/those editors (don't know if there's one or two, but it looks like one with two names) not only spammed about a hundred links to the Getty archive, but in almost every case copied the archive description verbatim from that source (please follow the link I left in my edit summary for confirmation). That is the copyvio. If you want to add the Getty link back the article please feel free to do so; but please remove the copyvio which you have (inadvertently) restored. I've not opened a CCI about this so far, but if you feel that my judgement should receive some "official" scrutiny, I'm more than happy to do so.

Good evening Martin!
I apologize for misusing the NPOV template. I thought I had posted my explanation on the talk page, but when I went back there were no comments from me there, which makes it look like a drive by. I must have gotten distracted and not finished.
I will post a detailed commentary later this week.
I know and respect Dr. Healy, but I think the article needs to reflect that his point of view is not universally accepted, and I'm concerned that his opinions and value judgments are being presented as undisputed facts throughout the article.
In many ways my argument is a simple one: WP:NPOV requires that the article weigh different points of view according to the extent to which they are adhered to by experts in the field. If Dr. Healy's point of view were universally accepted or even a majority viewpoint, the world would be a very different place and he would be part of the establishment rather than an outside critic of the system. Thus I think other points of view need to be represented in the article.
I look forward to an enjoyable and intellectually stimulating discussion.

So it seems that he was born in Southowram, or at least was baptised there. So is it also true to say he was born in Halifax. The Southowram article itself says that it is east of Halifax and not in it. I guess this was also true in 1832. I'm not surprised if Halifax wishes to claim him as an important son.

Sir Galahad, a typical hero Hero is in general importance an admirable person who perform great deeds, and thus gaining great honour and glory. In Greek mythology called the heroes heroes (ἥρωι), from where many languages had his word for hero, as well as Swedish words heroic and heroism (heroism). The Greek heroerna often had divine descent, which is common even among heroes in other mythologies.
Literary significance[editing wikitext]
The main character in a narrative literary work is the character whose actions and destiny in her administration's red thread. Originally, there was no contradiction with the general definition, but then the aesthetics changed notably since the term realism has also been repealed failed people, people in tragic circumstances, evil people, and even people who don't do anything at all and not have anything fancy. Among works with such heroes include Kafka's the process, Louise Boije af Gennäs clean house, Samuel Beckett's waiting for Godot, Tolstoy's Anna Karenina .

Hello Martin, I can see that you have an interest in the New Boots and Panties!! article. :-) I hope you don't feel I've been treading on your toes with my edits – I'm just trying to organise the article along the lines of the Wikipedia album article style guide, with the objective of getting it up to good article status at some point. I'd like to get as many as possible of the classic British punk/postpunk/new wave/synthpop albums from 1977 to 1985 up to (or at least close to) GA status, as this is obviously a musical time and place that Wikipedia doesn't cover very well at all, as it's hard to get hold of a lot of the original articles, interviews and reviews.
I must admit I'm not entirely sure about using block quotes in the album review section, but maybe that's just my personal preference – if the article ever goes up for GA nomination we'll see what the other reviewers think. When I'm back in the UK over the summer I'll try and head down to the British Library and dig out the original reviews of the album from the music press, at least to try and put critics' names and dates to the reviews. I should also get hold of the Ian Dury biographies at some point so the references can be more accurately quoted with page numbers, etc. Cheers. Richard3120 ( talk) 17:50, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi Ceoil ( talk) 20:26, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
Sorry I prematurely undid your change to the 2014 FIFA World Cup#Cooling breaks section. I read it too fast and thought you removed it altogether. I still think stating the temperature at the start of the game (which is below 32°) appears to be a contradiction of the rule and think it's important to state the criteria that went into making the decision. I also thin the AP article is overstating the the fact the the breaks are "supposed to occur in the 30th and 75th minutes". The way I read your FIFA sourced article, the breaks could take place "anytime after" the 30th and 75th minute. I'm still looking for a better source that will include all of this information.

Hi Martinevans123. In response to your recent edit summary on the article Béla Bartók, I really have no idea of the number of articles that use parenthetical referencing (I assume your question is directed at this general style, rather than the particular dialect of it found in the Bartók article). Certainly not as many as those using either of the other two main classes of references (full footnotes and shortened footnotes), but a substantial number, especially on 20th-century-music and music-theory topics. A few important articles in these areas using parenthetical referencing are Tonality, Atonality, Timbre, Mode (music), Serialism, Neoclassicism (music), Musique concrète, Experimental music, New Simplicity; Milton Babbitt, Frank Bridge, Mauricio Kagel, Luigi Nono, Arnold Schoenberg, Karlheinz Stockhausen; Antony and Cleopatra (opera), Capricorn Concerto, Klang (Stockhausen) (and most of the other articles on specific works by this composer), Le marteau sans maître, Octet (Stravinsky), Piano sonatas (Boulez), List of string quartets by Béla Bartók, Symphony No. 3 (Harris), Symphony No. 1 (Davies) (and the other nine Davies Symphony articles), Quatre études de rythme, Wind Quintet (Schoenberg).— Jerome Kohl ( talk) 23:25, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

One of the pieces of trivia about Tommy is that John Lennon has a cameo role in it. Some people have insisted that he is an occupant of one of the cars in I'm Free (YouTube video here, screenshot of 1:36 here). On closer examination it probably isn't him, but more importantly, Lennon is not known to have left the USA during the early 1970s, as he was worried that if he did, he would not be granted a visa to get back in again. [68] Lennon was finally granted a Green card in 1976. The seaside and holiday camp scenes in Tommy were filmed in the Portsmouth area in the summer of 1974. It is almost inconceivable that Lennon could have turned up on the set of the film with no-one remembering it. See also Talk:Tommy_(1975_film)#John_Lennon.3F.-- ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 11:53, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
If GabeMc hadn't retired, I could have pulled him in here and got him to dig out at least three reliable sources that stated Lennon left for New York in 1971 and never returned to Britain. Yoko was not a fan of the place and resented the hostility towards her (mind you, if you released Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins - what the hell did you expect?)

You're forgiven. But there's little point in this conversation. As a Wikipedian, I kinda have to say, yeah, children are just people. As a father, well, children are very special people and it breaks my heart to think of these ones (and the ones in Gaza, and everywhere else). A Dutch reporter listed in de Volkskrant what all objects he found there. One object was a little notebook; the child had practiced writing "ananas" ("pineapple"). Another thing he found in a field was a little bright orange shirt with, you guessed it, graphics from the Dutch football team on it. I imagine it was a bright orange football shirt very much like the bright orange football shirt my boy was wearing when we were watching the Netherlands against Argentina. He's not even two, so he doesn't know when to cheer and for whom, but he's learning. Just humans, but special ones. Drmies ( talk) 23:00, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
FL330 is approximately 33,000 ft above mean sea level and not exactly because it is set relative to a standard barometric pressure and is not relative to the ground. This is to ensure that all aircraft in an area agree on their altitude even though the local pressure would indicate otherwise. When an aircraft drops out of the flight levels the altimeter is set to the local pressure and indicates the actual height above Mean Sea Level. FL330 will only equal 33,000 ft above sea level when the local air pressure at sea level happens to be exactly 1013.25 hPa and, furthermore, will only equal the height above ground when a pressure is set at the airfield that causes the altimeter to then read zero.

Hello M. I hope that you are well and that the summer season was good to you. I read the section header but not the paragraph. My bad and I am glad you were there to catch it. OTOH I am always leery of "similar" statements as they often aren't. The source provided makes no mention of Linder being inspired by Chaplin though. I came upon it when an IP moved the item from the beginning to the end of the paragraph but, since CC's film was made first do you think we should move it back? I think that The Floorwalker is on one of my other Chaplin DVDs - if so I will try and watch it and make any changes as needed. Also, if you are a fan of DS I would highly recommend a read of this book if you have the time and inclination.

Sometimes the cows also appear in accompanied by a few decorative into the grass draped human figures such as in the "siesta" of 1860 or in the "Autumn Willow" from 1867, rarely, joke sneaks into the picture, but is it before: The famous "cow in the herb garden" of 1857/58 about looks at us with such a self-evident from the vegetables out that we must suddenly smile.

Since the Autism page is protected and its talk page as well, here is a heads up on a recent CDC whistleblower.
http://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2014/08/27/the-big-one-cdc-whistleblower-goes-public-now/ http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-1164794
William Thompson, one of the 4 authors of a 10 year old CDC study on whether vaccines cause autism, recently went public and stated that the published results were incomplete. According to him the increase in autism for boys was around 340%.
FYI: Boys are 3 times as susceptible to mercury poisoning as girls, and the ratio of autism in boys versus girls is also about 3 fold. Mercury is used as a preservative in vaccines. 71.174.141.49 ( talk) 22:56, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the visit and edits, much appreciated. I've reworded the section about the Salon Exhibition at the Louvre, because the Salon was something very specific (for which there is an article at Salon (Paris) ) and after you left, the introductory paragraph ended up with two 'as a result of's' in the same sentence, so I've changed that too. I did prefer my original 'subsequently' because I thought it conveyed the sense of a passage of time between the disaster and the filing of the claim for compensation (disaster = April 1912, compensation claims accepted from January 1913), so unless you strongly advise against it, I would like to revert that edit? Other changes I completely agree with, thanks. Kind regards. Hogarthianista ( talk) 18:23, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi Martin,
Can you please see my comment on the Talk Page over at Talk:Auregnais? The Auregnais article really needs correcting, as the mistake appears to have been there for a very long time. Sorry, I wouldn't usually ask you, but I often see errors and have no idea what the correct protocol is, beyond leaving a comment on the Talk Page. Many thanks to you. Sorry for being rude to you earlier in the year. Alrewas ( talk) 10:49, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi Martin, yes, quite possibly. I wasn't sure what to do here, perhaps I should have sought advice first. I wanted to add the section about the painting size because, all over the web, the size which appeared on the claim form (8'x 4')is stated factually as 'the size of the painting' even though it cannot possibly be. If I leave the factual parts of the paragraph (contents of claim form and sizes of extant paintings are verifiable by checking museum and public gallery sizes, etc) but leave out the final, concluding sentence (leaving readers to draw their own conclusions), would that be satisfactory? For future reference, can I say 'see talk' in the main article for minor controversies and inconsistencies, etc?
Also, since you take an interest in such things, I would be grateful for any feedback regarding the substantial updating I've done recently of the Merry-Joseph Blondel page. It is now substantially more detailed and better researched than the French page on this painter, so can I now remove the 'contains material translated from the French' label from the talk page? And what would I have to do, in your opinion, to upgrade it from a 'start' quality article? Have I achieved that with my update? Any advice will be much appreciated. regards Hogarthianista ( talk) 15:43, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Is it just me that finds this strange ? The BBC and The Times report her age at the date of death as 64. The one reference that seemingly cited 1948 as her birth year has been replaced by a (citation needed} tag, yet Wiki still has the article showing her birth year as 1948. It hardly accords with the, usually very reliable, cited references.

My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk,
Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains
One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk:
’Tis not through envy of thy happy lot,
But being too happy in thine happiness,—
That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees,
In some melodious plot
Of beechen green, and shadows numberless,
Singest of summer in full-throated ease.
First stanza of "
Ode to a Nightingale",
May 1819
My heart aches and a drowsy numbness pains
My senses, as though an anteater I'd seen ...
(panic spreads and the audience half rise)
A nasty long-nosed brute
(screams from the audience)
With furry legs and sticky darting tongue
I seem to feel its cruel jaws
Crunch crunch there go my legs
Snap snap my thorax too
(various screaming women faint)
My head's in a twain, there goes my brain
Swallow, swallow, swallow, slurp

I take your point. However, the article is badly titled in my opinion as it separates the Daily ~ from the Sunday ~ (the latter having its own article which could just as well be a section within the main Telegraph page) which is not a distinction made in the online version. The article says: "Telegraph.co.uk is the online version of the newspaper. It includes articles from the print editions of The Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Telegraph". which is an increasingly archaic way of looking at it - these days news articles are written with all the various media in mind and the printed version is likely to become a minority format (if it isn't already).

Hey Martin,
You asked in your edit summary of lunar effect "what's a "significant ordinary effect"?" What I meant by that is what the first sentence of the article says: "simply (...) variation in light levels", because that is the only real difference between a full moon and a non-full moon: it just reflects more light from the Sun. Significant, but pretty ordinary compared to the claims described in the article. Greetings, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 23:01, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Martin, How are you? I just had a small question to ask you. I saw your edits on the Mel Giedroyc Wiki page, but saw that you had removed a few commas after dates., for example instead of saying "On 14 October, it was announced" you changed it to "On 14 October it was announced". I was just curious as to why you did that as I was taught in those situations to add a comma after the date. Is it a British versus a North American thing? I have checked various web pages from the UK and Canada, where there was a comma after a date. I was just curious. 74.15.186.97 ( talk) 20:51, 18 November 2014 (UTC)samusek2

Before reverting anything, I wanted to ask the opinion of the user who did the edit in the first place.

The concept of aesthetics has been the interest of philosophers such as Pluto, Hume and Cant, who understood aesthetics as something pure and searched the essence of beauty, or, the ontology of aesthetics. But it was not before the beginning of the cultural sociology of early 19th century that the question was problematized in its social context, which took the differences and changes in historical view as an important process of aesthetical thought Hafspajen ( talk) 20:57, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi Martin. I've been reading archaeology quite intensely for over fifteen years now. In this field, a "squeeze" is a very common NOUN, not a verb, as you correctly have noticed. A typical sentence: "After the Mesha Stele was shattered by its Bedouin finders, the only way of restoring it was by using the squeeze taken by Salem al-Khoury." No archaeologist will ever ask you "using the WHAT?" if you tell him that. I'm just one step away from an important graduation exam, Wikipedia is a very useful tool for me sometimes and I make amendments when I think it's very much needed, but for now I don't have the time to write articles or alike. Once I take my exam, we can see about that. It seems to me quite common that terms marked as "article non existent" work like challenges to people with more time than me, who might otherwise not stop and consider writing one. It does not harm anyone in any way, so please, let's make this our last dialogue on this specific topic, shall we? I thank you. I hope we'll both soon find an article about the technique of taking a squeeze on Wik. Or not, one can only do so much. Now back to my studies. Have a great day!

Hey I'm Annoyingbot II. Thank you for your contributions on Wikipedia! Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Viking , you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Monday I'm just telling you that I was going to tell you something but then I don't know what. If I've made any errors, tell my Operator. Thanks Annoyingbot ( Annoy) 22:39, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
Martinevans123,
Have a prosperous, productive and enjoyable
New Year, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Hi Martin, Spotted your revert on Clifton Suspension Bridge - edit edit said suicide with todays date - I can't see anything on BBC news etc - it is probably just vandalism but could this be something someone is about to do - should we take it to ANI or somewhere?— Rod talk 20:23, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
I see the post on the article has been suppressed, but I've not had nay feedback about whether what we did was appropriate - hopefully a positive outcome.— Rod talk 07:40, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
