thread_title: Merge

message: I've had a stab at a template for racing cars (see template:Racing car) to summarise the usual data. I've used the F1 templates as a starting point and applied it to the Brabham BT46 article. If anyone's got an interest in this, please have a look at the template and modify or suggest changes as appropriate. After a few people have had a go at it and we have something we're happy with we could start to use it more widely. Note that it's not meant to be specific to F1, by the way. Cheers. take care 4u1e 10:20, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Woburn, Bedfordshire

message: In wartime there was some secret work done in Woburn, possibly connected with Bletchley Park.
I'm not sure if this is encyclopedic material, but the shops and restaurants cater more effectively for tourists than for residents. There is only one general store which sells a restricted range of goods. Many residents shop at supermarkets out of the town.
The village is served a few times a day by the number 49 bus whose termini are Woburn Sands and Leighton Buzzard. It does not run on Sundays or public holidays.
There is a school (presumably primary) and a swimming-pool. The general store is also a post-office.
:As someone who used to live in the area, I just crashed in expecting to find references to the wartime work and was surprised by the omission. istr it was radio propaganda and that Glenn Miller was involved. There will probably be loads of references online. -- John (Daytona2 · talk) 15:21, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Muck-up day

message: muck up day should be compulsory for all schools and it should be illegal to not do it
I think that that sentiment should be impressed more upon the students than the school. And really - it just adds to the fun to have to avoid any hired security! No muck up day is complete without the frantic running from security. Say rather, that it should be incumbent on the students to do their best to leave a parting "fare thee well" to their school.
That is your opinion, but other people have different opinions.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.177.70.28 (talk) 06:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  History  

message: Again, coming under the heading, "Political ideas", I think this is a bit of a misnomer, because what the subsection discusses is not Connolly ideas about feminism. He doesn't address himself to the theory or practice of feminism, but rather to its object, women's emancipation. But yes, you could say he emerges as a feminist. So leave that.
The wording suggested is summary, and I think less of a jumble that what's preceded it. Its opens with C's summary of his essential position: "opposition to the domination of nation over nation, of class over class, or of sex over sex". It then briefly list his policies/actions consistent with that: support for the Suffragette movement, his work with women in the labour movement, the admission of women on an equal basis to the ICA.
Then, para 2, his conceptualisation of women's emancipation (from The Reconquest of Ireland), tracing women's oppression to the structure of capitalist society, but seeing emancipation as a task that will be completed by women themselves:  "none so fit to break the chains as they who wear them, none so well equipped to decide what a fetter is”--surely a significant and critical statement.

Talk:Glumdalclitch

message: Actually, Gulliver does not "part company with his nurse" once the Queen of Brobdingnag buys him from the farmer, as stated in the definition, but entreats the Queen to let Glumdalclitch be "admitted into her Service," and continue to be his "Nurse and Instructor." 
The full quote from Chapter III of Part II goes as follows:
"I then said to the Queen, since I was now her Majesty's most humble Creature and Vassal, I must beg the favour, that Glumdalclitch, who had always tended me with so much care and kindness, and understood to do it so well, might be admitted into her Service, and continue to be my Nurse and Instructor. Her Majesty agreed to my Petition, and easily got the Farmer's consent, who was glad enough to have his Daughter preferred at Court: and the poor Girl herself was not able to hide her Joy: My late Master withdrew, bidding me farewell, and saying he had left me in a good Service; to which I replied not a Word, only making him a slight bow."
:True.  My fault.  I will make the change.  If you spot another case of sloppiness like that, feel free to change it yourself.  Thanks for the keen eye and the help.  (I'm upset at my drafty memory.  I shouldn't make a mistake of that magnitude.)  Geogre 13:28, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Petro Doroshenko

message: I'm removing this entire section due to factual inaccuracy:
Among his descendants are Natalia Pushkinaand the Royal Houses of Luxembourg-Nassau-Weilburg (Count of Merenberg) Great Britain (Mountbatten, Mountbatten-Windsor) and the imperial House of Russia (Romanov, Countess de Torby) by Natalia Goncharova's daughter Nathalya Pushkin, Countess of Merenberg, married to Nikolaus Wilhelm of Nassau, brother of Adolphe, Grand Duke of Luxembourg, and therefore with almost all Royal and ruling European houses.
In fact NONE of these Royal Houses descend from Natalia Puskina.  Pushkina married a minor member of the house of Nassau-Weilbury morganatically, and therefore none of her descendants (titled Counts/Countesses of Merenberg) were dynastic or Royal. The House of Nassau Weilburg itself are not her descendants. One member of the House of Merenberg did marry a Romanov, again morganatically, the descendants being non-dynastic and non-Royal, and styled Counts/Countesses de Torby.  The Imperial House of Russia does not descend from her, only this morganatic off-shoot. Both the houses of Merenberg and de Torby are today extinct.  No member of either married into any other European Royal House, therefore rather than "almost all Royal and ruling European houses", there is in fact NO Royal House in Europe descended from Puskin.  The only connection to the House of Mountbatten is the marriage of a de Torby to a non-royal family of that family.  There is no blood connection at all to the Mountbatten-Windsors (Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh is from a different branch of the Mountbattens). Indisciplined (talk) 19:59, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Chiaro < old it. claro, see Lat. clarus). We write that on our papers. In Italy, chiarissimo is the title by which you address your professor.
