Talk:Bronze-winged jacana

message: I have added a 5 references and a few paragraphs detailing the mating systems of the Bronze Winged Jacana. Njoymusic2 (talk) 06:15, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Edits

message: The Bronze-winged jacana is described by Hugh Whistler as having a frontal lappet that is "livid" in colour. Livid is bluish-grey and that is what almost any photograph shows. Rasmussen & Anderton (2005) have it as red which seems to be in error - as only the base of the upper mandible is red. HBW has seen the problem and seems to have decided that the lappet turns red during courtship - and there is no photograph or description that has this. I urge anyone to make careful observations and read the literature carefully and to not add these doubtful descriptions into the article for now. Shyamal (talk) 11:50, 27 March 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Bosnia Vilayet

message: Whilst I recognise, of course, that Bosnia was to all intents and purposes an Austro-Hungarian possession after 1878 and before 1908, nonetheless it still recognised Ottoman sovereignty. I've noticed his was quite a widespread phenomenon with the territories agitating for freedom from Ottoman Domination: with Serbia and Romania having tributary status until 1878, Bulgaria until 1908, and Egypt and Sudan were technically parts of the Ottoman Empire until 1914, and Cyprus and Bosnia were de jure Ottoman Provinces until 1914 and 1908 respectively, despite their de facto control by Britain and Austria, respectively, not to mention places like the Principality of Samos and the Khediviate of Egypt.
What I'm wondering is, why was this done, and why was it so widespread? Why was de facto control of these places preferred to de jure annexation, which would have happened in most other situations. Why was there so much trouble taken to not only accomodate the Ottoman Sultan, but to seemingly not offend him?JWULTRABLIZZARD (talk) 21:10, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

message: Would be good to reuse the images from Candlestick chart with some (visual) explanation Natebailey 11:19, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Why are these separate articles?  There's nothing in Candle line that isn't already in Candlestick chart—if there is, it should go in the larger article anyway.  In fact, Candlestick chart says far more about the various kinds of candle lines than Candle line does. This is like having an article on Bar chart bar in addition to Bar chart:
: A bar chart bar is a rectangle in a bar chart with length proportional to the value it represents. The bar can be horizontally or vertically oriented, and is sometimes colored to represent an additional feature.
Candle line  is similarly superfluous. —johndburger 14:54, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Brehon B. Somervell

message: This article appears to have far too little criticism of Somervell, far too little about abuses in military spending, and cost overruns associated with the construction of military housing and with the Canol Project. Somervell appeared repeatedly in front of the Truman Committee, and as a result had the construction of housing taken away from him, given to the Army engineers. He was seen as a "martinet", quick to remind people of the fact that he had highly placed political protection in Harry Hopkins and George Marshall. Somervell went outside the chain of command to amass a fiefdom. He insulted Truman on the phone, saying "Mr. Senator, as far as I'm concerned you can go piss up a rope." Somervell had a "mania for publicity", according to Steve Vogel quoting Leslie Groves. Binksternet (talk) 21:54, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Al HaMishmar

message: While I certainly am impressed by Zero's knowledge of Hebrew, I wonder whether they should be the one to decide the name of the paper in English. An official press card issued to the paper's music critic specifically calls it "The Daily Guardian." Comments, anyone?--Geewhiz (talk) 12:21, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: It wasn't me who decided what the translation of the name is, it was the excellent source that you added. However, I agree that there is more going on as the newspaper wrote "The Daily Guardian" in its masthead. The question is whether the start of the article should give a verbatim translation of the real (Hebrew) name of the newspaper, or should use the slightly different English name it used itself. Or both. Zerotalk 13:39, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

text: The publication permit TA/32 dated May 4, 1943 calls it, in English, "Mishmar". For the record, so I don't have to search again, the initial publisher was Mr. Lazar Wilder of Kibutz Merhavya, the printer Achdut Printing Press at 6 Mikve Israel Street, Tel Aviv, and the editor Mr. Mordechai Bentov. Zerotalk 13:54, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The answer is not straightforward, as you say, but I think a reasonable way to handle it is to put the official English name of the paper at the top, and add (in the history) a literal translation of each version of the name in parentheses -  Mishmar (lit. "Sentinel") and then Al Hamishmar (Lit. "On Guard"). In most English sources, the name of the paper is simply transliterated, as Mishmar and Al Hamishmar (or Al HaMishmar).--Geewhiz (talk) 15:35, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Black stilt

message: I've added quite a bit to the article and tried to improve the citations. The current kakī management plan (2011) is listed on the DOC website as in use but not published, so I've replaced the single reference to it. It would be good to have more information here on the captive breeding programme, perhaps under the Breeding section.
I have a pers. comm. from Nicola Toki of DOC on current black stilt numbers, sent 21 April 2016: "A minimum of 77 wild adult kaki, 43 sub-adults and 18 juveniles were known to be alive during the mark-recapture survey at the end of February 2015." Because I don't think this has been published we can't include it until we find a reference, though she did use the 77 figure in her radio interview, so I've mentioned that.

Talk:Sprott Shaw College

message: I looked at "what links here" as "there is a campus of Sprott Shaw College located in FOO" in various wordings across a host of town and city articles.  The sole purpose of these, to me, would indicate spam. Same as if there were sentences like "there are six MacDonald's Restaurants in FOO" or "XXX gas stations in FOO".  The use of corporate-franchise articles in this way strikes me as more than a bit spammish.96.48.61.209 (talk) 05:58, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed.  Mentioning Sprott on the communities' pages is OK, as long as they actually have a presence in the town, and as long as there is no undue emphasis on their school.

message: I'm not sure if this would be considered relevant enough to add:
:Repercussions of the explosion in Egypt were felt the following day on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. (The Israeli trading week begins on Sunday.) Shares of energy stocks soared on heavy volume, particularly those of partners in the Tamar 1 offshore natural gas field. Senior officials in the Israeli Ministry of Finance urged Yitzhak Tshuva, leading shareholder of Delek Group LTD (TASE:DLEKG), to expedite the development of the Tamar 1 gas field. Tshuva responded, "Whenever we are needed because of problems with the Egyptian gas supplier, we do our duty without asking questions, and this is the thanks we get."
