thread_title:  Constitutional Union Party of 1850? 

message: Around 1856-1857, he was actually most famous in the north for his alleged remark that he would live to one day call the roll of his slaves on the Bunker Hill revolutionary war battlefield (near Boston).  There's some dispute over whether he said those words, but a lot of people in the mid-1850's thought that he had...

thread_title:  What does this mean? 

message: This really needs to be included in the article, since regardless of whether or not he ever said it, millions of people during his lifetime believed that he had said it. which means it's a highly notable and relevant issue to his biography... AnonMoos (talk) 04:06, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Calling the roll of his slaves on Bunker Hill

message: I performed a fairly major cleanup of this article, while updating a computer. I took out much of the gushing language, consolidated the info about his slaveholdings in one section, and added info about his family and final years. Frankly, the section concerning his move from unionist to secessionist needs work. It has few cites, and originally wasn't chronological either. I really don't have time to figure out the exact genealogical relationship between his wife's family and his son-in-law's family, nor is info about the deaths of his other 2 daughters readily available online.Jweaver28 (talk) 18:31, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Gingival recession

message: This is a good article to have since there could be a lot of information placed here. The name of the article should be the proper name: gingival recession.

message: The article identifies "contract city" as an American term.  Does the term have any currency outside of California?

Talk:Ancient Age (bourbon)

message: I suggest to merge Ancient Age and Ancient Age (whiskey). Both are about a whiskey with the brand name Ancient Age. Both of them list both blended whiskey and Bourbon whiskey in the list of brand expressions. Alternatively, if someone thinks they should be kept separate, the first one should perhaps be renamed to "Ancient Age (Bourbon whiskey)" and the second one to "Ancient Age (blended whiskey)", to improve clarity. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:51, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for your suggestion. I would not merge due to one is a bourbon and one is a blended whiskey. Although they are both Ancient Age, they are two different products. I do respect your suggestion, but all bourbons are whiskies but not all whiskies are bourbons. Please give me your feed back as I am new and trying to accomplish wiki. --BD (talk) 17:19, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: While I do appreciate the idea that the blended version is somewhat distinct from the straight bourbon version, the separate article strongly duplicated what was already here, and therefore didn't have enough material to warrant a separate article. I did merge in a mention of the blended version, which is consistent with other whiskey brands that include both blended and non-blended versions, such as Bushmills, or other multi-variety brands. (Truthfully, I think we need more such simplicity in articles; just because a different bottle has a different age statement on it doesn't mean that it's a distinct brand worthy of a separate article, nor a separate link in a list article.) oknazevad (talk) 04:36, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Protocol 

message: Do they have to be well-known before their death to be included on this list? Garda Robert McCallion --candle•wicke 04:09, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it is more a question of what formally constitutes a State funeral in Ireland. The funeral of soldiers who die while on service are attended by formal ceremonies. The same applies for members of the Garda Siochána. Former Old IRA veterans were entitled to an Defence Force guard of honour and firing party salute, but these were never considered State funerals, as I understand it. I had a quick look at the Dept. of the Taoiseach to find a 'definition' of what constitutes a State funeral, but without success. Maybe others will have more luck.

message: This article says:
"Following tributes from across the political spectrum, the Cosgrave family, his three children, Mary, Liam and Ciaran, were offered a State funeral.
"At their request the funeral Mass and burial will have some elements of State but it is a private service."
I don't think he should be included in the list. Maybe just a comment like the one about John A. Costello.

thread_title:  slang for pound? 

message: Squid is a gathering of SF (Science Fiction or Speculative Fiction) in a pub.  It is not a convention, as it is a smaller, less formal format.
When one is telling friends what one is doing in the future, one says "I am going to squid" or "I will be squidding".
However, the next day, when recounting what you have done in the past, the term is squud "I was out late last night: I squud".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Raistllynn (talk • contribs) 21:07, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

message: The USAF says its a USAF-photo and thereby PD . But when it appeared for the first time in the Journal of National Geographic Society in December 1960 (Vol.118, No. 6, p. 854) the caption states: […] A National Geographic camera mounted above the gondola took this remarkable photograph at 102,800 feet. HS Ektachrome © National Geographic Society . 
Magazines like GEO printed this photo with the byline Volkmar K. Wentzel/National Geographic Collection. Volkmar Wentzel is mentioned as photographer in the head of the NG-article. 
There are also pictures from a USAF-camera in this article with the byline by United States Air Force. But not this one. So, why should it be PD? --80.137.29.137 10:54, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
