Talk:Isis (journal)

message: I found a reference to an article published in 2004 as "ISIS Philadelphia". A cursory web search revealed that there is a current "Isis" in Chicago, but I couldn't find anything speaking to when it moved, whether it operates in two places, or whether there are 2 journals.

Talk:Steffen Freund

message: I removed the quote (and a paragraph) that were neither cited nor NPOV.  Please be sure that when something is added it represents a neutral point of view.  The quote uses the word "great" when reffereing to his being selected, and this implies that it was great for him to play.  It may be a direct quote from a magazine, but it still portrays a point of view (and just for clarification, the magazine may have intended a "large" moment, as in important, without making a judgement of goodness.
As for the paragraph, it was completely unsourced and portrayed a POV that he was a terrible midfielder who couldn't score a goal to save his life.  --jfg284 you were saying? 11:15, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  NPOV 

message: Is it relevant to add info about Freund being selected for the World Legends in a charity game against English Legends in December 2007? Surely, it should somewhat balance the impression of him being useless? He was in fact a terrific holding midfielder. Info about Legends game. In addition, World Legends goalkeeper Erik Thorstvedt singled out Freund along with Gianfranco Zola and Roberto Di Matteo as the best players on the pitch. It sounds unbelievable, but it is true.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.47.109.183 (talk) 11:25, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

What "needs of children" are these exactly?
And "adult fashions sized down" ... so when was someone first to design a fashion with children and adults equally in mind? -- Smjg 11:37, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I have removed the statement that the show was presented to look like a reality show, as this is not the case.

Talk:Political culture of Germany

message: and prevalent Green and social democratic forces? Donnerstag 12:19, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

message: Political culture is about shared beliefs, values and feelings on the political system and political life, domestic and foreign affairs of the country, which is dominant among large sections of the public and is particularly shared by political elite groups. Everyone can give an alternative definition but political culture is certainly:
*not "welfare government" but rather attitudes to government;
*not "prevalent Green and social democratic forces" but environmentalist or socialdemocratic attitude to state politics; 
*it's also not the issue of imigration but attitudes towards the issue. 
Of interest for a student of political culture is not the wealth gap between East and West per se, but if there are differing political cultures between East and West.
*It's more than obvious that political culture is also not what "some coservative politicians" do on an issue.
Most of these issues have been addressed in the literature. On Germany I can cite the works of P.J.Katzenstein and an International Organization case study by J.S.Duffield (53, 4, Autumn 1999, pp. 765–803). Drawing from Duffield, emphasis should be put on:
the dominant political orientation of antimilitarism/pacifism and multilateralism. Examples from the Iraq crisis of 2003 and citing of more recent sources would be helpful.
In my opinion an article should be reworked to focus on political culture and not individual ideologies and to make reference to the literature.
Donnerstag 11:38, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: What Political Culture is and what is not

message: I agree with Donnerstag. Here is a list of some points that should go into the article:
* A culture of public debates
* Fairly strong party affiliations among voters, more so among elected representatives
* "Wehrhafte Demokratie", i.e. a democacy that actively looks for and defends against challengers, both ideologically (using debate and information/propagande), using the legal system (outlawing of the KPD and various right-wing parties), and by maintaining a strong law enforcement apparatus.
* Cooperation of many different parts of society (unions/parties, unions/industry, parties/churches...)
* Striving for consensus
* Strong European integration and strong aversion to using the military
* The persistance of whining ;-)

Talk:Dinesh Gupta

message: Some portions of this article are similar with the articles Benoy Basu and Badal Gupta. As the last activity of the trio are the same, I think this similarity in language won't cause any copyright problem.--Dwaipayanc 12:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Similarity

message: Regarding the Scottish official killed by Dinesh Gupta and his associates, the article currently says:
"The association targeted Lt Col NS Simpson, the Inspector General of Prisons, who was infamous for the brutal oppression of the prisoners in the jails."
Is there a reference for this claim that Simpson was infamous for brutality? According to Simpson's obituary in the British Medical Journal (Dec 27, 1930), he was an official of the Indian Medical Service(IMS) and was a humane advocate of prison reform. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2452805/?page=1 Of course this may be an incorrect and partial view put forward by Simpson's British medical colleagues, but the contrary claim that he was infamous for brutality needs to have a supporting reference or else should be removed. Incidentally, the obituary also claims that the three men ran through the building firing randomly into different offices, which suggests that Simpson's killing was random and unrelated to any reputation he had.

Talk:Pictish language

message: It looks like from what I'm reading, the Picts were likely a Brittonic ruling class or overclass and the population of the regions they ruled was predominantly Gaelic-speaking. If they fled during the time of Roman occupation, it would explain why Pictish retained archaisms and resisted soundchanges in other Brittonic caused by Latin. 
It also explains why the Brittonic loanwords into Gaelic are mostly government oriented. And it explains the influence on syntax and such, the Brittonic-speakers adopted the Gaelic language. 
It would explain the gradual process of Picts adopting the Gaelic language. It would explain why there are so few Pictish placenames in the region.
The kind of language shift we're talking about otherwise would simply be unthinkable without mass conquest and genocide of Pictish regions, which archaeogenetics and archaeology and contemporary sources don't seem to document. 92.5.108.62 (talk) 15:02, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Influence On Gaelic 

message: Is there any particular reason why the element on place-names in the Pictish regions has been removed? Pictish place-names are one of the most plenteous sources of linguistic evidence for Pictish, and the article only makes a footnote on it.
The general source for this is The History of the Celtic Place-Names of Scotland by WJ Watson, 1926. Pictish Porgress (2011) is another. JoeyofScotia (talk) 08:56, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: This was removed by me when I was trimming a lot of excess material from the article.

:It should be noted that Thomas Rogers, who says "complications from throat cancer," gets his information from Robert Bloch, who knew Weinbaum. Myself, I've known people who've died from both, John Brunner's wife, Margery, who died from throat cancer, and my father, who indeed died from lung cancer. There was a period in the '50s and early '60s when all cancers seemed to become lung cancers at the moment radioiodine became a cure for thyroid cancer. Just sayin'. The first external source leads to a citation that gives "complications from throat cancer."

message: I’m not sure how to say this, but this guy is a relative of mine (by marriage).
He married my grandmother’s sister. My mom actually used to stop over at his house in Milwaukee and hang out with him. Talk to him have milk and cookies with him. She said he treated her like a real person unlike most adults, the reason that I am adding this is that he couldn’t have gone to the University of Wisconsin Madison (where I went) because he was in Milwaukee.
The other tidbit is that he was kicked out of school for taking an exam for another student.
After Weinbaum died, his wife, Marge, who was born in Waco Texas, married an Austrian born (some sources say Schwabian/Bavarian), Milwaukee physician named Eugene Kay and they had several children.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rberlow (talk • contribs) 04:08, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
