replies: text: Three years later it's still incorrect.  I'd change it myself except the last time I tried to rename a page I made a bit of a mess out of it.  In any case, rating is very different from rank.  A SM1 (Signalman First Class) is the same rank as a BM1 (Bosuns Mate First Class) although different rates (Signalman vs Bosuns Mate).  Likewise a SM1 is the same rate as an SM3 (Signalman Third Class) but a different rank. Nibios (talk) 17:20, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:James Renshaw Cox

message: There is an inconsistency here.  Under Andrew Mellon's biography, it says that he resigned to avoid impeachment, by taking the ambassadorship to the U.K.  But on this page, it says that Mellon's funding of Cox's army was the pretext for Hoover to remove Mellon from office.  Well, Hoover did not remove him from office, he must have appointed him ambassador.  Was it a pretext for the impeachment of Mellon?  Anyway, these two articles should be made consistent.

message: The narrative concerning Admiral Apodaca is likely wrong. As a child in Trinidad, my history books always taught that Apodaca committed suicide soon after burning his ships. He was dead by the time the British forces took control of Trinidad.

message: There's a nice table in Nigerian_Federal_Ministry_of_Commerce that lists the Ministries, Ministers, and also includes the Ministers of State where they exist.  Would anyone object if I moved that table to this page, to replace the other two existing tables?
Second question: is it necessary to include the "term" of the ministers?  It seems a bit redundant, because all of the ministers listed in this table should be the current ministers, and at least some of the individual Ministry/Minister pages have a list of previous ministers and terms, for example: Foreign_Minister_of_Nigeria.  Perhaps the table could list "Date Appointed" instead, like this: 
Ministry                              	Minister    	Date Appointed	Minister(s) of State

message: I'm not very knowledgeable on how Wikipedia editing works or what guidelines to follow, so I'll refrain from actually editing anything on the page. However, I saw that the term "upecist" goes unexplained and needs clarification. I did some Googling because I didn't know what the word meant and I found an article from a "professor of history at the University of Ottawa" at the link https://www.academia.edu/1069940/Cameroonian_Nationalists_Go_Global_From_Forest_Maquis_to_a_Pan_African_Accra. On page 3 of the actual article, it explains the the term "upécistes" was used by UPC members to describe themselves. I don't know if this qualifies as a source or is credible enough to be used, but it'd be nice if someone who knew better than me could use this somehow. 149.19.42.28 (talk) 14:54, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

message: It reads:
"Dupanloup was born at Saint-Félix, in Haute-Savoie"'
The use of the words: "Haute-Savoie" (which bytheway, should rightly be hight: Upper Savoy on English wiki pages) is a gutless way of making out that Dupanloup was born in France - HE WAS NOT!
Think about, it the truth was allowed to overcome the NWO-blessed French nationalist spiking of English wiki pages, then one could then be allowed to wonder why (for instance) was the said Felix Dupanloup somehowe such a Joan of Arc loving French nationalist despite being from Savoy itself to end up getting oppressed by France. Felix Dupanloup would of hated an 'Maid of Savoy'. Not all is meeting the eye anent this fellow.

Talk:José Vicente Cuadra

message: The entire page for José Vicente Cuadra reads more like an obituary than an honest biography. Only one in-text citation is given, from Nicaragua's Ministry of Education website, and the whole thing is suspiciously positive. There are also weird lines like, "The biggest failure of his administration was the inability to deal with the Miskito tribal nation in the eastern region of Nicaragua." What does this mean? There is no context for why he would have to "deal with" the Miskito. One possible answer is this: the Wikipedia page on the Miskito mentions a conflict between them and Hondurans, saying that one of those parties enslaved people, but that section is not clear on who was taking slaves, and the source for it is one book by an American archeologist, Ephraim George Squier, who seemed to have been motivated to make the Mosquito Coast look dire to discourage English claims to it.
It seems to me like the only source this article uses isn't even reliable, and there should at least be some kind of notice declaring that. 2604:3D08:5A7B:9E00:A1CF:100A:709E:44F (talk) 22:24, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Talk:José Vicente de Freitas

message: In an edit today, I removed some content about the reasons for Salazar's appointment as Finance Minister.  I didn't want to guess what "attempt to different countries the party" might mean, the source I was reading didn't offer a similar explanation, and perhaps it isn't too relevant inasmuch as it seems to have little to do with Freitas himself - attempts to enlist Salazar had already been made, before Freitas.
I also made the explanation of the demise of the Freitas government quite a bit shorter.  It could certainly be elaborated, but the previous material was unclear.  Look for "portaria dos sinos" for material relevant to the church edicts.  See "Lei da Separação do Estado das Igrejas";  I have the impression that the Évora edict implemented this, and the Salazar faction opposed some or all of it, but am unclear on the history beyond that.

replies: text: This posting in and of itself is actually a good example of the issue I've had with your edits.  Despite references being made and additional links being provided, you are still insisting on a level of citation that is simply practically impossible to provide.  I have said it before, but I will continue to post the concept of assuming good faith on the part of Wiki contributors and not be so quick to judge or act tempermental when someone does not aggree with your strict view of Wiki guidelines.  Ultimately the Wiki is a collaborative environment, and the way you are going about these requests bellie the concept of cooperation and seem to be a tad "power hungry" more than anything else.

Talk:Company of Masters

message: This article is on a subject of some interest to me, and I would certainly like to see it expanded. Firstly, the article needs citations for material currently in place, as well as for any future material added. I would also like to see more information on the manner with which the members advanced, the role of Prize Playing, and even information (if available) about the relative ease of advancement (did almost everyone who tried for Provost fail? 70%? 50%?). It would also be nice to see important individuals within the organization, perhaps names for the four "senior Masters". Also, a section on the societal impact of the organization would not be undue, as the role of judicial and non-judicial duelling was (I believe) a relatively important element of this society, with such a school providing an individual the means with which to win his life. Also, I think with the upswing in historical martial arts reconstruction, it may be worth to note that a very similar system of rank has come into use by the Association for Renaissance Martial Arts. --Xiliquiern 14:23, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

I don't believe this is the case... the masters of defence were actually quite at odds with Italian fencing instructors in England at the time (Rocco Bonnetti and Vincentio Saviolo, for instance). Furthermore, the only good source we have for a member of the company teaching rapier (Swetnam) does not support the idea that they were teaching it "as taught in the Italian school."

It has led to speculation that the title of this song could be a parody of "20th Century Boy", however, it is worth noting that the progressive rock band King Crimson has a song called "21st Century Schizoid Man", which contains lyrics featured in Bad Religion's original song, possibly as homage."
Aside from being likely irrelevant in a page about 20th Century Boy, that passage implies that KC's song uses lyrics from "Bad Religion's original song, possibly as a homage"... when KC's song predated BR's song by over 20 years.
