The following discussions are requested to have community-wide attention:

Talk:ExxonMobil

This article used to have a heading "Support for climate change denialism" which was removed or changed in this extensive edit. Should a heading called "Support for climate change denialism" be restored in the article?

Note that there has been discussion of this issue with involved editors above on this talk page. Note also that we're not looking so much for votes here, as for in-depth comments on the content issues, and possible proposals of how the content should read. The RfC is posed as a question, but we welcome comments and new ideas as per the above section.

Template talk:IPAc-en

The current mouseover for the IPA symbol "i:" in the IPAc-en template offers the word "bead" as a pronunciation guide word. Might not the word "seed" be a less ambiguous word? KDS4444Talk 15:20, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

Talk:The Smashing Pumpkins

Should the title of the article be "Smashing Pumpkins" or "The Smashing Pumpkins"? 22:21, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Political correctness

Is the term political correctness primarily or generally a pejorative — or something else outside the binary option?

Edit: note that the earlier discussion was about whether it was to be mainly described as a pejorative at all. The current matter is about the following edit: the swap. --Mr. Magoo and McBarker (talk) 14:21, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
