Talk:Robert Nelson (insurrectionist)

message: I've just received the following correction:
:Nous avons fait erreur dans le message qui vous a été adressé le 21 janvier dernier.
La date de naissance de Robert Nelson serait le 8 août 1794 et non 1793. Nous disons "serait" car cette information ne s'appuie pas sur un document officiel mais sur un texte de Mary Soderstrom publié dans le Devoir du 8 août 1994 pour rappeler le 200e anniversaire de la naissance de Nelson. Voir ci-dessous le texte de mme Soderstrom qui s'appuie sur des documents qui sont aux archives de Trois-Rivières mais que nous n'avons pas vérifiés.

::Même Le dictionnaire de biographie canadienne prête comme date de naissance de Robert Nelson janvier 1794 et prétend que le nom de sa femme est inconnu. Pourtant, une note nécrologique écrite par son fils et une généalogie de la famille Nelson (maintenant dans les archives du Séminaire de Trois-Rivières), disent qu'il est né en août. La généalogie précise qu'il s'agirait du 8 août.

Talk:Hormesis

message: The description of the hormesis graph says,
"A low dose of a chemical agent may trigger from an organism the opposite response to a very high dose," but that's clearly not what the graph depicts.
Right? What the graph does show is a low dose and a very high dose both producing inhibition--the same response, not the opposite.

Talk:Captain Beefheart & the Magic Band

message: Captain Beefheart & the Magic Band were a revolutionary and innovative rock band, founded in the Mojave Desert area by Captain Beefheart
Did he 'found' the group there, or simply take them off there to record Troutmask? It would be interesting to have some of the stuff on the recording of Troutmask for this article, Beffheart allegedly subjected the rest of the band to sensory deprivation and virtual torture by all accounts, resulting in the wonderfl album we all know and love today... quercus robur 21:17, 20 Jan 2004 (UTC)
Talk:List of World War II infantry weapons

message: I've found this site and wondering if it's a reliable source for Polish sidearms for troops on exile
Book "Wojsko Polskie 1939-45 - Barwa i Bron" (ISBN 83-223-2550-9) seems to be legitimate source but don't know what to think about mentioned S&W and Colt revolvers in the topic
Weapon showed in the book
-Colt M1911
-Enfield No.2
-SACM 1935 A
-Star 1914
Other weapons showed on photos:
-Walther P38 (probably captured)
-Vis wz.35 (probably taken from Poland)
Somebody mentioned that somebody talked to a war veteran that said that they were issued with Smith & Wesson and Colt Revolvers in Italy but I cannot verify or deny this claim

I moved the above here as it is useless in its current state and disrupted the meaning where it is inserted. I do not know chinese but highly doubt that Materia Medica is a chinese title, but simply an english approximation of a title for a compilation of medicinal substances.

message: * I think that Battery should have the content in Battery (electricity) with a link at the top of the article to this disambiguation page. It is by far the most common usage. Also, there needs to be a disambiguation page, but some of the terms listed don't need disambiguation from "battery". The Metallica song and the band don't have articles, and Battery Park and battery farming don't have the same name as "battery". The two slang entries aren't as unnecessary, but most common things have a slang meaning, so I wouldn't make a disambiguation for them alone unless they were separate articles. -- Kjkolb 08:50, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Charles W. Pickering

message: Judge Pickering has been depicted by groups like the NAACP and People For the American Way as an enemy of civil rights. But black residents of Laurel, Miss., his hometown, say these assertions are false. Two years ago, New York Times correspondent David Firestone conducted scores of interviews with black residents of the city. He wrote that "on the streets of his small and largely black hometown, far from the bitterness of partisan agendas and position papers, Charles Pickering is a widely admired figure." Blacks praised him for helping to set up after-school programs in the city and for directing federal money to low-income areas. Black city officials praised him for persuading white-owned banks to lend money to black entrepreneurs.
Four of the five blacks on the seven- member city council favored Judge Pickering's promotion to the appeals court. Black residents pointed to the fact that, in 1967, Judge Pickering testified against Sam Bowers, a Ku Klux Klan leader on trial for the firebombing death of a local civil rights worker. They noted that, by testifying against Bowers (currently in prison for murdering another civil rights leader more than 30 years ago), Judge Pickering risked his life. "I can't believe the man they're describing in Washington is the same one I've known for years," Thaddeus Edmonson, a former president of the Laurel chapter of the NAACP, told the New York Times.

message: I reversed a lot of the changes made on 3 June 2021‎ by Croftmire for the following reasons:
*"Hogarthian" goes to "William Hogarth" anyway (I thought in such cases the Wikipedia rule was to let it automatically redirect). 
* "Company" with capital-C is used to make clear that it is the company mentioned in the title that is being referred to; ditto "Bank". 
* The UK was called Great Britain in 1710, indeed 1707–1801. 
* "Auditor of the Imprests" (with capital-I) is correct, as that was how proper-name phrases were capitalised in those days (and still perhaps today in the UK). 
* "pieces of eight" goes to "Spanish dollar" anyway. 
* It is not necessary to change "Gross Domestic Product" to "Gross domestic product" as traditional capitalisation is still used in the UK (I have changed the page to "Use British English", which seems appropriate). 
* Other minor matters of style reverted.
