What about universities out in the vast Canadian hinterland?
Far away from the Quebec-Windsor urban corridor?
There are far too many endowments being given to Southern Ontario / Southern Quebec universities, and not enough to those out in the vast hinterland of Canada that makes up 98% of its land mass.
Such as the West Coast, or the Prairies, or the Canadian Shield, or the Maritimes, or Newfoundland, or the Territories.
We need to stop investing so much into Upper and Lower Canada's post-secondary education system, and, instead, invest more into that of the rest of Canada.
We need to be more like the United States of America.

Just look at "hospital row". It's not about what's needed, is it? These articles -- and our societies -- are sycophants when wealth is involved.

Talk:George W. S. Trow

message: I first met George Trow in 1976. He was very close to the sister of a very good friend. Besides being very smart and very funny George was also very kind and generous to me when I was a confused fledgling writer. I remember him with great joy, as I greet his passing with great sadness. As to the reference to George W. S. Trow angily leaving The New Yorker over Tina Brown 'inviting Rosanne Barr to "contribute" to the special women's issue', I think it must be explained and clarified that that is very wrong in fact, while accurate in substance. A "contribution" would have been fine, George would have not blinked an eye at that. But Barr was asked by Brown to be the editor of the issue, to have control over the content of an important issue of The New Yorker magazine, an institution to which he'd given much of three decades of his life; and that is very much another thing. This has been reported in the general press, and not having that factual distiction clear and present hurts your otherwise excellent rememberance of George and makes him sound like a foolish stuffed shirt, which he most manifestly and throughly wasn't. Thank you very much.
Yours Truly,
Stanley W. White

message: The page needs a section on Trow's writing style, a link to Wikiquotes (which I'll try to get around to creating), and information on his plays and screenplays.

message: In the lede, don't we need to add mention in that Wein is also a musician (piano)?  I think that the quote saying "non-player" in misleading—shouldn't we remove that silly thing?  Certainly he is mainly known as an impresario, not as a player, but he's still a musician.  Perhaps also, the lead section also mention some of the other major festivals that he has been instrumental with, such as Newport Folk and New Orleans Jazz and Heritage(?)  And though he is unquestionably one of the greatest jazz impresarios along with names such as Norman Granz and probably also John Hammond, the articles for Wein and Grantz claim their topic as the most important (in the ledes).  Maybe we could tweak that too (in both articles) to something like "..one of the most important impresarios"? What do you think?  I thought I'd ask for a little bit of advice, , , ,  .

Talk:Jane March

message: There are some contradictions between this article and the one for The Lover, which states March was 17 when she filmed most of the movie, but the sexual scenes were filmed after turned 18. This differs from this article which suggests a body double and that March was 2 years older than reported. The stories need to be straightened out so maybe someone more familiar with March and her work can do so. I removed a comment regarding child porn re: The Lover as this is not notable; numerous mainstream films have had nudity and/or sexual scenes involving underage actors (at least underage by US standards), including acclaimed films such as American Beauty, Pretty Baby, Thirteen and Pretty Persuasion to name a few. There's some legal loophole that prevents them from being lumped in with porn. 23skidoo 20:55, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Airplane II

message: Hello all,
I'm heavily involved with the Wikipedia article List of Tau Kappa Epsilon brothers, and I wanted to get some other people involved that may know more about George's college years. There is a source claiming that George was a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon (https://www.thrillist.com/lifestyle/nation/best-fraternities-and-sororities-famous-greek-members), but I can't find any other sources claiming that fact. I also do not see his name on the member directory for Rockhurst University (http://www.tkekappanu.com/member-directory).
There could be several explanations that would still substantiate George as a Teke, such as the notion that he could have pledged the fraternity without ever getting initiated or that he was a member (perhaps an honorary member) at a different college.
Any insight into this? Thanks! Jmnbqb (talk) 21:49, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

message: I will revert an edit by User:Barliner. A person who was married to an RC was not necessarily excluded. A spouse can always convert to Catholiscism after the marriage, like in the case of the Duchess of Kent. The spouse needed only to be RC at the time of the wedding for exclusion to have taken place.

There are actually scads of people excluded from the line of succession for this reason, above all the whole Jacobite succession, against whom the act was directed. I'm not quite sure how to phrase the idea intended: perhaps "the nearest relative to Queen Elizabeth excluded from the line of succession for being a Roman Catholic under the Act of Settlement 1701"?

Talk:Schützenpanzer SPz 11-2 Kurz

message: Article says:
The only armament for the SPz 11-2 was the 20 mm Hispano-Suiza 820/L35 cannon. The cannon has a 15x15 periscopic sight. 500 rounds of 20 mm ammunition were carried. Three smoke grenade launchers are provided for tactical and emergency concealment.
Infobox on the other side says: 1 x 20 mm Hispano-Suiza 820/L85 Cannon 
So are there 2 different version and L35 is the original gun and L85 is a upgrade done later or an error?!

replies: text: I regret to have to disagree.  George Winterton was a fine scholar and a fine man, but this is an encyclopaedia entry, not a biography.  It should be comparable with other WP articles about a scholar, which, even for the most renowned, list only their principal publications.  I think the list need not be confined to books, but could include other publications that made a notable impact. Nor, however, might every book merit inclusion.   I can't find specific guidance on this, but for a living scholar full information about their publications is ordinarily provided through a link to their homepage;  compare George Williams (lawyer).  So I would prefer to return here to a single article listing only books, possibly with the addition of any other publications that made a notable impact. Wikiain (talk) 00:29, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
