Talk:Pyotr Masherov

message: The article claimed that "Masherov published a book in which he openly criticized Soviet leadership as arrogant and conceited. The book showcased his dedication to Marxism Leninism and his opposition to Brezhnev." While there isn't much info on it in English, its name was Sovetskaya Belorussiya (aka Soviet Belarus, confusingly also the name of a newspaper at the time) and what info I was able to find argued that the book contained a veiled criticism of Brezhnev's personality cult and consolidation of power (as opposed to the principle of collective leadership sought after Stalin died.) The basis of this speculation is because Masherov mentions "Comrade Brezhnev" relatively little and there's no passages dedicated to praising Brezhnev. It's entirely possible that was the case, but it certainly isn't open criticism nor necessarily evidence of "dedication to Marxism Leninism." Not to mention the idea that a book published in the Brezhnev-era USSR could openly denounce Brezhnev is absurd. Hence I removed the paragraph, which has no source. --Ismail (talk) 15:19, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Name Confusion
Talk:R. D. Blumenfeld

message: There are some statements about dates in the article that cannot easily be reconciled, if at all. For example, the opening paragraph states that Blumenfeld was in charge of the Daily Express from 1902 to 1932. So far, so good. But then the third paragraph of the Biography section states that his editorship lasted until 1929, when he found himself gradually marginalized. Then the fifth paragraph of the Biography section says that he became Chairman of the Board in 1932, retaining the position for the rest of his life, which would imply that he held the position until 1948. And then the final paragraph says that he retired in 1935, and was incapacitated by a stroke in 1936. 
So the reader is left wondering: was he in charge of the Daily Express until 1929, 1932, 1935, or 1948? It's hard to understand, for example, how he could have remained Chairman of the Board until 1948 if he retired in 1935 and was incapacitated by 1936. And how does one reconcile his becoming Chairman of the Board in 1932 and retaining the position for life, if, as the opening paragraph states, he was in charge of the paper only until 1932? 
It would be good if someone who understood Blumenfeld's life in detail could clarify some of these statements, which give the impression of having been added by different people at different times without reference to the statements already in the article.

Talk:Alfa Romeo G1

message: Hello, while I know that the G2 was indeed a project at Alfa Romeo after WWI, my understanding is that the commercial failure of the G1 lead to the drop of the G2 project. I visited the website mentioning the G2 as a car produced at 100 ex., but I can tell for sure that no such car is listed in the reference books such as Luigi FUSI, Tutte le Alfa Romeo dal 1910 (Emmetigrafica, Milano 1978); L. FUSI et al., Le Alfa di Merosi, Autocritica 1983; TABUCCHI M. e D'AMICO, Alfa Romeo production cars 1910-1996, NADA Ed., Milano 1996; nor any other I ever consulted. It seems to me that the reference to the G2 should be cancelled, and possibly replaced, after careful checking of the features of the planned car, with a mention of the aborted follower. I thus edited the article accordingly. Sincerely yoursSportiva (talk) 14:03, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Gray (automobile)

message: I've added a section for See also, and added a reference to the Gray Light Car.
I have done this as part of the Wikipedia Backlog Drive, in an attempt to clear up the Orphan Article banner on the Gray Light Car.
Unfortunately, the Gray Light Car article is a stub, so it does not say much.
Even more unfortunately, it gives a date of 1920 for the Gray Light Car, which is just outside the year range (1922-1926) that is given on the List of U.S. cars page.
Either one of the dates needs adjusting (on one or other of the pages), or the link that I have inserted is wrong, and needs removing again.
I am confident that the link is right... but I will leave it to one of you experts to contradict me. TheAMmollusc (talk) 08:59, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  cite to sunset provisions: 180 days from signing 

message: Recent articles are discussing a supposedly urgent debate over the passage of a permanent law by Congress to replace the sunset version.  What isn't clear to me is whether this is a political issue with any real effect.  Apparently the NSA is already trumpeting how they're losing intelligence and cooperating partners over the non-renewal of the bill.  The precedent of the crypto export restrictions (Bernstein v. United States) seems to suggest that the president can say that the failure of congress to renew a bill is an "emergency" allowing him to direct its continuation unilaterally, and to keep renewing it no matter how many times the courts may say it is unconstitutional.
I'd like to see someone nail down facts on:
*Can Bush issue an executive order (United States) decreeing that this bill be extended, without agreement from Congress?
*Could Bush already have issued a National Security Directive that the bill be extended, without the knowledge of Congress or the public?
*Can Congress override a directive they're not allowed to know about? Wnt (talk) 05:39, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
