Talk:Communist Party of India

message: Name[edit]
Communist Party of India (Marxist)
AKG Bhavan, the CPI(M) national headquarters in Delhi 28°37′53.6″N 77°12′17.9″E
CPI(M) is officially known as भारत की कम्युनिस्ट पार्टी मार्क्सवादी (Bharat ki Kamyunist Party Marksvadi) in Hindi, but it is often known as मार्क्सवादी कम्युनिस्ट पार्टी (Marksvadi Kamyunist Party, abbreviated MaKaPa) in press and media circles. During its initial years after the split, the party was often referred to by different names such as 'Left Communist Party' or 'Communist Party of India (Left)'. The party has used the name 'Left' because CPI people were dubbed as a rightist in nature for their support of the Congress-Nehru regime. During the Kerala Legislative Assembly elections of 1965, the party adopted the name 'Communist Party of India (Marxist)' and applied to obtain its election symbol from the Election Commission of India.[8]

"ESN sections were founded in various European universities. With financial support from the EC, Christian Schoenberg and Mads Stenbæk, both students at the University of Copenhagen, organized and hosted a meeting for the official founding of ESN International in Copenhagen, Denmark in October 1990. The organizers invited 49 representatives from almost all the Erasmus-program member states. ESN International became a legal association and Desiree Majoor from Utrecht, Netherlands[4] became its first president."
Rationale: I just realized that neither I nor my co-founder and co-organizer Mads Stenbæk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/madsstenbk) are recognized anywhere in the materials relating to the founding of the ESN. We spent almost an entire year organizing the event and the first AGM.

Although the article is about the franchise, not the heroine in particular, I prefer this name to Alisa's Adventures used in Russian.

The article is rewritten accordingly. The plot of a single book is removed, and overview of the series written instead.

message: A user added the following to my talk page, but it seems more appropriate to put it here.
I've been reading some on Agee. Apparently, he wrote an article for The Nation, May 19, 1945, which criticized films by US Signal Corps showing Nazi atrocities in Hitler's death camps. Agee questioned the veracity of the films & called them "propaganda." I did not want to edit the page without getting the original Nation article or finding a scholarly analysis. Does anyone have any handy references to verify whether Agee was a Holocaust denier? Here is the Nation summary: 
Abstract
Films
Agee, James | May 19, 1945 issue
add to cart   close window
In this article, the author presents information on some recently released films which show Nazi atrocities. He describes that these films show that Nazi atrocities are only part of what is rather clearly an ordered and successful effort to condition the people of Germany. The simple method is to show thing; more frightful than most American civilians have ever otherwise seen, and to pin the guilt for these atrocities on the whole German people. According to the author, in their full immediate force and expression, these films are in some respects irrelevant to moral inquiry.

Talk:Pravic

message: Is there a possibility that Ursula Le Guin might have borrowed these words from the Breton language? Her husband, Charles Le Guin, is a frenchman of Breton origins (see interview here). The right spelling in Breton language would be "mamm" and "tad" (which respectively mean "mother" and "father").
--HerveGourmelon 15:28, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Possible origins of "mamme" and "tadde"

message: I am not sure that the "Modes" are part of the language, like mood in natural ("real") languages. I felt these to be more like a mixture of a certain type of rhetorics (argumentation) and a continued reference to a specific conceptual domain. E.g. when reading Einstein, Shevek notices that he carefully avoided the religious or even the ethical mode in his explanation of relativity. Shevek was reading Einstein in Iotic translation, so he could not have seen an absence of a linguistic aspect of Pravic in the text. It can be argued that even if these "modes" are more than language, each could involve specific grammatical, lexical or stylistic conventions (e.g. written English scientific discourse uses some specific, though not exclusive grammar, vocabulary and rhetorics), but even so, one could not assert with any certainty that this is something that could be considered purely (or mainly) linguistic. All in all, there is just too little information to put the "Modes" as a feature of Pravic in the main article.symbolt (talk) 20:58, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  The "modes" as something grammaticalized 

message: The article says:
: The word ammar is used for "brother" (or "sister" -- the language is completely neutral as to gender)

Talk:Gerald Wellesley, 7th Duke of Wellington

message: Shouldn't it be that the 7th Duke of Wellington succeeded his NEPHEW Henry? As far as I understand the 5th duke only had two children, one son and one daughter. Additionally Gerald Wellesley was born significantly earlier than Henry, making it almost impossible to be his brother, as he then would have been heir presumptive.

I adjusted some information here to better reflect that article, but I am not great at non-copyediting work. The section is quite biased towards the white colonial viewpoint. It largely ignores Xhosa viewpoints, motivations, and victories. While a small degree of skewing of focus could arguably make sense given the article topic, the removal of things that makes the Boers and the whites in general seem bad doesn't - for example, the killing of King Hintsa ka Khawuta. It's also pretty important that the Boers have been described as the instigators of the wars. If someone could balance it out a bit, that'd be wonderful. --Xurizuri (talk) 02:33, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
