thread_title:  Setting up WikiProject Silverware? 

message: In July 2015 the business of statutory jewellery assaying, now apparently branded  as Assay Office Birmingham, moved to a newly built site. The Victorian building will no doubt be forever known to architectural historians as Birmingham Assay Office. I have created a second building Infobox to reflect this so as to preserve the architectural details of the original. I am unsure of the viability of maintaining business and historical information in the one article.   Oosoom Talk  15:52, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Stanley Maude

message: My Great Uncle served under Maude (indeed my family still possesses a haggle toothed bayonet, taken from a dead Turkish soldier during Maude's Mesopotamian campaign in Kut el Amara). The story my Uncle told was that Maude was a harsh leader who ultimately met an untimely end.
After a long days march, an 18 year old soldier serving with a regiment close to Maude (possibly the Somersets?) during this campaign fell asleep on sentry duty. Maude had him executed. The regiment was indignant about this and Maude's habitual cup of evening milk was laced with Cholera infected material by the regimental cooks. This is of course all hearsay...but if true provides an interesting lesson to all in positions of authority....

replies: text: I recall (some 30 yrs ago) reading in a microfilmed Times (of London) archive a story published not long after Maude's death that is worth checking out. The suspected fatal cup of milk had been given him to drink by local Arab chiefs he was meeting. I recall it said he decided not to refuse it because he did not want to appear discourteous to hosts who were happily drinking it themselves and whose people the British wanted to win over in the effort against the Ottomans. Thus leaving me with impression he died through a sense of diplomatic protocol.Cloptonson (talk) 21:11, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Alexander Cobbe

message: According to a war report from the UK Parliment. Cobbe and Plunkett are listed as Colonels during the 1903 April disaster mentioned in the further campaigning section. I'm pretty sure it's temporary rank for Cobbe. He's regimental captain at this point if the rest of wiki is true. The Victoria cross summary list him as Lieutenant-Colonel in October 1902. This also appears to be a temporary rank. In September of 1904 he's promoted to brevet lieutenant colonel after he becomes a regimental major. Rimraz65.28.50.86 (talk) 07:15, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

Talk:John Y. Brown Sr.

message: There are four John Y Browns in Kentucky Political History.  Some call it a dynasty, but it is not as big of one.  The eldest of the name is unrelated to the other three.  The subject of this article was named after him.  The modern reader is perhaps most familiar with the son of the subject of this article.

Talk:Ray Fosse

message: Rose knocked Fosse bum over teakettle, Fosse’s shoulder was significantly injured as a result, and Rose was criticized for playing too roughly.  We’re smart enough to grasp that, and the fact that it was an unfortunate incident, without extra details.  Talking about Fosse “writhing in pain” while the National League players supposedly ignored him while celebrating (I’ve seen the footage several times, and it looks like the players, including Rose, at least look at him.  There was certainly callousness among the NL players, but they weren’t entirely unconcerned by any means) is unnecessary and makes it sound like a civil case rather than an article.  You don’t go to the Lou Piniella article and see something like “Piniella argued with the umpire while the grounds crew looked on in concern and terror.”  Just keep it straight and to the point.  Like I said, we’re smart enough to grasp what happened without extra details.  We’re not a bunch of idiots who sit around in the back yard drooling and eating crickets. Evernut (talk) 13:20, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That was the way they played the game in those days. Also, the NL players really took the All-Star Game seriously back then. Nowadays a player of Rose's stature would be subbed out in the 5th inning. Back then, (the 60's & 70's) guys like Rose, Joe Morgan or Wille Mays often played the whole game. Back in '65 Juan Marichal started and pitched 3 full innings. That doesn't happen anymore. Missaeagle (talk) 22:07, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
