Talk:Washingtonia robusta

message: How close to a house can you plant this palm wihout causing a foundation or some other sort of problem for the house when it is full grown?
Pretty close, however one might not want to plant within 6 ft of buried sewer lines
as the great weight of the tree and eventual wide trunk/roots could cause problems.
Avoid near power lines since someone likely will have to climb the tree to prune.
The leaf thorns are extremely sharp and when dead can scratch cars when falling from 
those great heights. Leaf debris in windy early fall is common without bi-annual pruning.
Mine is 80 feet and only 45 years old in Santa Cruz.  At five feet from the driveway
has not caused conrete problems, but did ruin/crack a too close sewer line.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.61.115.3 (talk) 23:23, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Policy Advocacy and Disability

message: The quote below obtained from: Dangerous Palms - Dave's Garden (davesgarden.com) does not specify Washingtonia robustus as one of the types of palms that loses spines as it gets older but the experience of palm tree trimmers like the pros at Trimming Arizona have 36 years of trimming Washingtonia robusta's and verify it to be the case that the thorns deplete to zero as the tree becomes taller, typically above 30-40 feet.
Examples of palms with spines are many, though most seriously spiny palms are truly tropical in nature and I do not have any of these in my yard. Some of these palms are primarily spiny when young, possibly to give them some defense against predation while still small enough to be considered food, and losing the spines at maturity when, as trees, are less interesting to herbivores. However, other palms are so spiny, even in adulthood as to have spines on nearly every surface and structure. These palms tend to have the most vicious spines and should really be avoided, or planted far from walkways. Trimming Arizona (talk) 14:00, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Hamburg School of Astrology

message: It was probably a mistake to have merged Hamburg School of Astrology and Uranian Astrology (eliminating the entry for Uranian Astrology and merging the entries in ways that sometimes don't make sense), since Uranian often developed on a course substantially removed from the Hamburg School, especially outside Germany... even though the roots of Uranian Astrology were in the Hamburg School -- as were the roots of Cosmobiology, which, following the same logic, could be considered a subset of Hamburg School Astrology.  These are issues that have tossed around and disagreed upon for years, and it seems that the best solution is to provide entries for all 3 (Hamburg, Uranian, Cosmo) and then specify how they overlap and how they differ.  This was the case originally, but someone apparently force-merged them all into one 'box', and cut and pasted components from separate articles into one, in ways that often look illogical and inconsistent... thus making the very subject itself look illogical and incoherent.  Which is great fuel for astrology-bashers.  Argument of the classification of the 3 variants, and which label should be 'dominant' has been an ongoing issue for decades, and it's not likely to change despite efforts to cram them all into one category, even if they did have common origins.
My sources are a number of books studied over a period of about 35 years, in English and German, some of which are still listed in the articles that remain posted.

Talk:Katarche

message: I don't agree on the merge.  The katarchic astrology entry is in basic disagreement with the  definition given here of katarche, and that is that katarche is the basis of all Western and Vedic horary astrology, but unfortunately, Mr. Brennan prefers a relatively new position about this which I do not personally agree with.  No one has proved that the horary references in Dorotheus are specious; in fact, the later citations of these portions of Dorotheus by fourth-century astrologers (obviously before the Arabs) seems to refute the idea.  In any case, it remains to be seen.  However, I think there should be a reference to the practice of katarche apart from astrology, in any case.  NaySay 17:06, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Pingree edited both Dorotheus and Hephaistio and his statements over the past decade are pretty explicit that the sparse horary references in the Arabic version of Dorotheus are interpolations.  So it is inaccurate to say that this is a relatively new position, or that no one has proven that they are interpolations.

thread_title: Untitled

message: I removed the references to Wolfgang Grams as a terrorist. There are several reasons. Firstly, we only use the word terrorist sparingly on wikipedia, it's a word to avoid. Secondly, no cite was provided for the claim he was a terrorist either here or in the Wolfgang Grams article. Thirdly, the WG article doesn't call him a terrorist. However the main reason why I removed it is because there is no evidence provided that he even did anything which would make him a terrorist. Neither here, nor the WG article nor the RAF article. From the WG article, the worst thing he appears to have done is to murder a police officer trying to arrest him. While this is a very serious crime, it doesn't fit most definitions of terrorism. He was associated with the RAF group but being associated with a group widely considered a terrorist group doesn't automatically make you a terrorist IMHO (and this is supported by most precendents on wikipedia). If he had aided any activities considered acts of terrorism then perhaps. But there is no evidence provided for his crimes on wikipedia other then the murder and the fact he was associated with the RAF. Nil Einne 15:57, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Terrorist? 

message: I removed the claims that WG death remains a mystery. The WG article provides a quote (sadly not sourced) of an eyewitness account. It also claims that officially it has been concluded he did not commited suicide (sadly this isn't directly sourced either). It appears that there was a coverup since people resigned. The RAF article also mentioned the fact that there was a coverup and the resignations (none of this is cited either). [I updated the RAF article to include the claim it was officially concluded Grams did not commit suicide.] There are several Germans sources on the WG article which may provide some help. But sadly, as it stands now nothing is directly sourced. However given the evidence, it seems to suggest that there was a coverup and he didn't commit suicide is most likely correct Nil Einne 15:57, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Assuming Slovakia has a similar award (I'm unsure if it's also called the Golden Stick; numerous European coutries have them), there would be no reason to merge it with one rather than the other.

Of course, most of the Czechoslovak players (and almost all the award winners) were Czech, so you could merge them on that basis, I suppose.

Talk:Bulgarian royal family

message: What justification there is to allege in the box that their nationality is German?
Their citizenship seems to have been Spanish since asylum and marriage. On the other  hand their citizenship and nationality is Bulgarian. Simeon became its Prime Minister, a feeat not available to others than Bulgarian citizens.
If someone means their ethnical composition, either Simeon's or Ferdinand I's, German is a too long shot.
Simeon was born as Bulgarian national, of an Italian mother and a Bulgarian father. His language is and was officielly Bulgarian. Mother's tongue is Italian. Father's tongue was Bulgarian. (Father's mother was Italian...)
Ferdinand I was born in Vienna, as a child of a French mother. His mother's tongue was French. Which was, at that time, general language of aristocracy. No doubt that was the language Ferdie learned firtest and mostest.
Ferdinand's father's nationality then was Hungarian. As was the father's mother's tongue. They resided in Vienna, as the father served in Austro-Hungarian army.
The biggest part of the ethnicity of Simeon's is actually Italian. A fourth or almost however from Montenegro, a Southern Slavic area. Some drops, perhaps as mmuch as a fourth, French. Very little drops from Germany, and at least as much from Hungary.
You have to go back to Ferdinand's father's father before you find any who was any sort of German. That means that Simeon's grandfather's grandfather was the most recent properly German in the pedigree. The nationality should be corrected, or the whole nationality-entry erased away.
