Talk:Les Reed (football manager)

message: Do we have any more detail on Reed as a Watford player? The Watford Who's Who doesn't hold any mention of him. There is, though, a possibility that he was sgned with us and didn't play, as I believe the book doesn't include them. HornetMike 15:16, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't want to do all the wading myself, but there seems to be a fair few articles on him here, most of which are oldish, and may contain some mention. Or maybe he's just one of those types who was unremarkable as a player, such as our old friend José Mário dos Santos Mourinho Félix. :) --Dreaded Walrus 15:34, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In an attempt to find out his date of birth (to fill in the gap in List of English Football League managers by date of appointment) I checked my copy of The PFA Premier & Football League Players' Records 1946-1998, but there is no mention of any Les Reed playing League football (nor any other Reed playing for the three clubs involved). So I can only conclude that while he might have been on the clubs' books he never actually played a League match for them. Qwghlm 13:03, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I've removed Eggman from the nicknames, simply because a Google search comes up with a mere 3 unique sites (excluding Wikipedia mirrors and things not to do with this Les Reed). So while it may be used, I don't personally feel it is widespread enough for inclusion, I would say. Especially when compared to the seemingly comparatively high number of results for the newly-added Uncle Les --Dreaded Walrus 19:11, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Eggman" nickname 

message: The article said: "the FA still owe Reed £700,000 on his contract in a dispute that has not been resolved, as of November 2006." citing
:
That's now a dead link, and 5 years is too long to let it stand without bringing it up to date, so I've deleted it from the article. --Stfg (talk) 14:59, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Owed 700K by FA? 

message: The article had a footnote saying "In December 2006 Reed's age was stated as being 53, so it is likely he was born in 1953." citing
:
But the article dates from 2 December and Reed's birthday was 12 December. In the UK, people are not usually considered to reach an age until the relevant birthday, so it is actually highly unlikely that he was born in 1953. I've removed the footnote. It was WP:ORIGINALSYN anyway. --Stfg (talk) 14:59, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

message: The last record presses ever made are said to be those built and supplied by Alpha Toolex to Melodiya Records (USSR) in the mid 80s.
So are all the record presses in use today of 1980s or earlier vintage? 217.155.20.163 10:28, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:IV Corps (United Kingdom)

message: :I separated this article from IV Corps (India) to distinguish the formations of the British Indian Army from the post-independence Indian Army. In part this was because editors were deleting the names of World War II commanders and adding those of officers who currently command the corps. The article on the post-independence IV Corps could certainly do with some editing and improvement, but I do not have the sources to do this. I would strongly oppose a re-merger of the articles. HLGallon (talk) 16:00, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem with any merger is that these are two different corps. The British WWI and WW2 corps. Then the Indian corps post 1947. As it stands this the British Corps article with a question mark is the Indian corps notable ? If we remove the British Corps detail (as we should being two different armies) there is not much left  --Jim Sweeney (talk) 16:03, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Indian Order of Merit

message: The IOM was the highest decoration that a native member of the British Indian Army could receive, therefore it was higher than the George Cross to a British Soldier and you will see in List of George Cross recipients that many of the people listed do not have their own pages. The same applies to the George Medal, a second level award, see List of recipients of the George Medal. If you do not want a list on this page, fine, create a new page being a list. I would have thought that a recipient of the IOM had done enough to be notable, especially if they had a second or first. Can we please have these names reinstated.

message: I understand that this show came on PBS. Was it PBS KIDS, or just plain PBS? I think it might have came on PBS, because I see that it's a BIT mature, if I am wrong please correct me. 
-Just wondering, Anonymous reader 16:44, 30 December, 2007
Yeah, it was just plain PBS and there was NOTHING mature about it AT ALL! There was no blood, no anything. This was a waste of money. If you want to do a Redwall tv show, please put the blood and the violence in it! The books wheren't made for three year old kids, ya know. The took out EVERYTHING for the little kid that strays into the room. God, I hated this show.
warriormartin December 3. 2007
That is true, showing blood and gore will cause a problem. They had to tone down it violent to make it suited for young kids, not to mention that series is suppose to educate kids. (mich (talk) 19:20, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Are there any reviews or sources?  The three seasons each have a different 'founder' of Redwall; the first follows the books more closely and has human-sized buildings and the rats' cart but these elements never show again.

replies: text: I recently found a reference, for the part about a 4th season. And as for the rats' hay cart and the human sized buildings, these are real-world elements unique to the first book. After which the author, Brian Jacques, never had those human references again. Oh, and Season One does NOT follow the book properly; there are lots of events that weren't in the book.

message: I removed the statement which said that lawn tennis was invented in Four Crosses, because it seemed like a rather large claim to be left unsourced. Communisthamster 15:25, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The claim which as described you were right to delete probably arose from the fact that the acclaimed inventor of lawn tennis, Major Walter Clopton Wingfield, had his country home in Rhysnant Hall nearby which has been demolished since his lifetime. However as he lived largely in London after 1870 he probably did not spend time enough to do much here. Nantclwyd Hall, Denbighshire, has claim to being first place his game was demonstrated.Cloptonson (talk) 09:08, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

message: I edited the article to acknowledge the uncertainty of his birth year.  We had different dates in the lead para and the infobox.  Better to be consistently wrong than giving 2 versions and confusing our readers.  Better still to say that we don’t actually know for certain when he was born.  Many sources say he was born 1901; many others say 1902.   Yet others give both dates without appearing to be aware of their inconsistency.  We need a definite birth year.  Is there an authoritative source? --  JackofOz (talk) 08:13, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
