Talk:C. B. Macpherson

message: This article does not take a detached point of view. See, e.g., the following comment, which sides with Macpherson against Fukuyama: "Macpherson's work can be used to study whether or not there is any benefit by using the socialist tradition to assess contemporary society, despite what Fukuyama says." 
Even more questionable is the following sentence in the opening paragraph: "He [Macpherson] is regarded, along with Harold Innis and Marshall McLuhan, as one of the most influential academics in the university's history." Macpherson was not nearly as influential as Nobel Laureate Frederick Banting, the co-discoverer of insulin, nor was he as influential as the literary critic Northrop Frye. Macpherson was indeed well known in his field during his lifetime, but his name would barely register among the younger generation of political theorists (except the Marxist theorists, who are now a very small minority in their field of study). At least in terms of "name recognition," one can think of many University of Toronto professors whose influence was greater than that of Macpherson: Ursula Franklin, John Polanyi, Allan Bloom, and Robertson Davies, among others.
In short, this article is overly biased in favour of its subject and needs to be cleaned up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.173.222.175 (talk) 22:15, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is ironic that the call to clean up the article due to perceived bias is at least as biased in its assessment. The claims regarding MacPherson's influence are certainly accurate, as he is still studied by political science students today. Additionally, he edited and prepared many wide read texts on political philosophy, such as Hobbes' Leviathan.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rampagingbeaver (talk • contribs) 22:06, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Anglic dab 

message: As has already been discussed, there are different levels of recognition between the Scots language and Scottish Standard English (and English too perhaps). To demonstrate the difference, I think the addition of examples demonstrating the difference may be a useful addition to the article (although where I don't know). I've taken an existing examplehttp://archive.is/l5T51 and added a Scots translation.
 Examples of grammatical and lexeme differences between English, Scottish Standard English and Scots
English                     	Scottish Standard English	Scots
May I come too?             	Can I come too?          	Can a come ana?
I should, if I were you.    	I would, if I was you.   	A wid, if a wis ye.
My hair needs/wants washing.	My hair needs washed.    	Ma hares needin washen/washt.
He won't do that.           	He'll not do that.       	He'll no dae that.
Does anyone know?           	Does anybody know?       	Dis onybody ken?
Gàidhlig could be added too, but I don't possess those translation skills.2A02:C7F:8ECF:9900:4D76:7050:F803:2D47 (talk) 10:54, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Correspondence to the Moon 

message: I notice this entry is a bit loose with referencing how Mahasthamaprapta is regarded by different schools of Buddhism. For example, the very first sentence introduces the Bodhisattva in context of the Pure Land School. I suggest editing the page to introduce Mahasthamaprapta generally, and then use sub-topics to explain how he is referenced (1) in different sutras,  (2) in different countries & (3) in different schools. One expects some cross-referencing in the sub-topics, of course. Lotuslaw (talk) 17:07, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Assessment Report 

message: Hi. You might have noticed that I have made two edits to this article removing the majority of the content. I will not be making a third edit of this nature, as I do not wish to fall foul of the three revert rule. However, I believe that it is important that we resolve the issues I have with the article.
At the moment, I would suggest that much of the article is not notable, not verifiable and not written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia.
The best way to show that my concerns are unfounded would be to provide some references from non-trivial sources for the information in the article. If references cannot be found, then the information does not have a place on Wikipedia, as WP:V states.
There is definate potential in some of this article, and I hope that by working together we are able to improve it to a level that makes it appropriate for Wikipedia. Ollie 17:40, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
