Talk:Eugène Ionesco

message: Newport, I don't have Encyclopaedia Iudaica in front of me, but I have an article on Eugene Ionesco from Lettre Internationale - Romanian Edition (51/2004). Matei Călinescu writes on Eugene Ionesco: "simte «evreu», sau are tendinţa să devină ceea ce aş numi un «evreu imaginar». Întâlnirea cu Sebastian e aici semnificativă: mărturisindu-i originea posibilă a mamei sale lui Sebastian, el ţine să adauge că a făcut pentru ea ceea ce se cuvenea creştineşte la moartea ei." or in English: he "feels «Jew», or has the tendency to become what I'd call an «imaginary Jew». His meeting with Sebastian (my note: a Jewish writer) is significant: testifying the possible origin of his mother to Sebastian, he likes to add he fulfilled the Christian duties on her death (as you can see from the article she was a Christian)".
As such, taking from an less reliable source (an encyclopedia) a testimony of his (why don't you quote him if he really said that?) and using that reference to add him as Jewish writer in the "List of Romanian Jews" it seems to be an outstretch and a blatant POV. And we already have the testimony of his daughter that this alleged Jewish origin would eventually come from a great-grandmother which would mean at best 1/8 of his genetic ancestry. Cheers.

Talk:Murga

message: There is a lot to say about murga and I will get to the basics at some point. Mona-Lynn 11:51, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Actually I personally do not think that Murgas are derived from the artistic style of the Chirigotas in Cadiz. The style of Murgas has eveolved over many years. Street performances with some elements of murga were common in Montevideo in the late 19th century. The reason why some people believe that at least the name "murga" comes from Cadiz is because a travelling artistic show named "Murga la gaditana" visited Montevideo in the early 2oth century. They did a show and did not do so well with the public. Left stranded here with no money, they decided to take their show to the streets to collect money in order to return home. 
Personally I believe that the style of murga and the name come from murgas de las islas Canarias, in Spain. Having talked to people involved in murgas, they have told me that it is the closest (in rythm, arrangements, etc.) to our murga. If anybody has a chance, look for murga "los Mamelucos" for example. You will be able to see that it is almost identical to what is done here in Uruguay. Many of our inmigrants came from Islas Canarias, perhaps when they came over they brought the seeds of our murga.
I also believe that this phrase "Staging is sparse with minimal use of props." is not entirely correct. The staging is sparse when the murgas act in small tablados. When they compete in el Teatro de verano for la liguilla, setting up the stage can take up to half an hour. 
I am just learning out the basics of contributing to wikipedia, but I will try to upload some pictures soon. Thank you.--201.217.128.151 16:04, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

message: What the heck is that? I think I know what the author meant, that the computational relativistic mechanics might be applied, as oppose to relativity theory.  I dont think it fits with the other headings. Can someone suggest an alternative, otherwise perhaps we should delete. Other than that the article is quite good, although I would argue that it is a stub. Billlion 13:18, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a certain camp of applied mathematicians, perhaps mainly in certain universities in the UK, who think that Applied Mathematics consists only of mechanics and fluid dynamics, even some who think that asymptotic methods in fluid dynamics is the entirety of applied mathematics.

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Fact and Reference Check

message: Hello all, this project appears to be functionally dead. In the last few years (Archive), it looks like half the posts have concerned marking the page historical, while the other half have been random requests which were gently guided to article talk pages.

thread_title:  Mark project as historical 

message: I propose to merge Wikipedia:WikiProject Fact and Reference Check (WP:FACT) into Wikipedia:WikiProject Reliability (WP:WPRE). Both projects overlap significantly in scope, with a shared goal of improving the reliability of citations in Wikipedia articles.
WP:FACT's project pages are more comprehensive and better designed than WP:WPRE's pages, and the combined WikiProject should use WP:FACT's pages as a base with WP:WPRE's content merged in. I prefer the name WikiProject Reliability, but other suggestions for the combined WikiProject's name are welcome.
WikiProject Reliability was formerly known as  (also an inactive project) until I reactivated it and moved it to its current name yesterday. If I had been aware of WikiProject Fact and Reference Check, I would have reactivated this project instead.
Hopefully, this merger will help transform two inactive WikiProjects into a single active one. — Newslinger talk 15:17, 5 January 2019 (UTC)

message: Tadhg doesn't mean "Irish". It is, in fact, a common Irish name. It is often used in the same sense as "Joe" (i.e. "the average Joe on the street"). "Tadhg na sráide" translates as "Tadhg of the street". It was from this that "Taig" came from. --Tadhg 02:04, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: I feel the article fails to make clear that this term is largely restricted to Northern Ireland, and to a lesser extent the West of Scotland, and even there is only used by Protestant bigots. English people would never use this term to refer to an Irish person, even pejoratively (they would say 'bloody Micks' or 'bloody Paddies'). It is a religious sectarian slur, and there is little anti-Catholic bigotry as such in England, where the Irish are generally popular though sometimes patronised. --80.176.142.11 (talk) 15:25, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Mitteleuropa

message: the last paragraph does not match the map: Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Poland liberated themselves, after the collapse of Imperial Germany and Austria-Hungary at the end of World War I. Soon they gained international recognition and participated in signing of the Versailles Treaty as members of the Entente. The other two (Belarus and Ukraine) were taken over by Russian SFSR and became Republics of the Soviet Union.  The map does not match this as it does not highlight any of what would be the USSR (except the Kaliningrad Oblast).  Should we not contain this article to mitteleuropa and not the territories of Brest-Litovsk?

thread_title:  Updated and expanded 

message: Recently you've been reverting the article to a version by yourself, complete with POV comments on sources mentioned in the article itself. Your own source, Mitteleurope by Naumann state that he wants both economic and military union, in contrary to one of your claims. Now, some of these sources used may be biased, but the correct response is not to inject more bias into the article, but for a reasoned discussion. Notable, famous historians, such as Fritz Fischer have wrote about Mitteleuropa in compelling depth from the perspective of time, and these are the sorts we should probably cite. You mention Devastated Poland wa sproduced during World War One, but so was Naumann's book. Now, the version of the article not affected by your edits, whilst possibly biased, seems to be superior to its current state. Thus, I revert it, and hope it gets locked before returning to its current state. I will trawl through JSTOR in the coming days to see what pops up on mitteleuropa, and see what comes up, because it is an interesting topic.Compoundinterestisboring (talk) 14:11, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
