Talk:Nguyễn lords

message: , could you please provide a source for this edit? Even the false academic source where the myth surrounding this flag is originally from claims that it was invented in 1802, so what source do you have for this flag? --Donald Trung (talk)  13:07, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Flag?! 

message: The current article calls it a "Duchy", but the more comment translation seems to be "Lordship", but the actual Classical Chinese title seems to be "Kingdom". I am not sure if we should even use of these terms, it might be best to describe it as "a vassal state within the Revival Lê Dynasty" than "a Duchy of the Revival Lê Dynasty" as I can't ever remember having seen this term used in any book about Vietnamese history to describe the Nguyễn Lords. --Donald Trung (talk)  10:55, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Trịnh lords

message: I already rewrote the end of the Trịnh part to be more historically accurate, but man, this article is bad with many inaccuracies. However what prevents me from rewriting it is that there are very few English realiable sources regarding the Trịnh lords (and even then, some of them are quite incorrect as English-language research on Vietnamese history pre Nguyễn dynasty is still in its infancy), so I will have to relies almost exclusively on Vietnamese sources.
Edit: Now that I examine it, this current article barely has any source to begin with. So I'll rewrite it with Vietnamese sources. --KomradeRice (talk) 17:55, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  This article needs a significant rewrite 

message: I know that the Tĩnh Đô vương tỷ (靖都王璽) was the seal of Lord Trịnh Sâm but it wasn't the Heirloom Seal of the Trịnh as the title of Tĩnh Đô vương (靖都王) was the exclusive title of Lord Trịnh Sâm. This is the reason why I didn't add that seal to the infobox as it's highly likely that every other Lord also had his own personal seal like this. I have read about the Trịnh having an Heirloom Seal while researching the Nguyễn Lords one, but I haven't been able to actually locate an image or even an inscription of it. I am sure that a print of this seal is "hiding" somewhere on documents, but I wouldn't advise using the personal seal of a single lord in the infobox of this entire period. --Donald Trung (talk)  21:16, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Sting and Lex Luger

message: do "Sting and Lex Luger" really diserve it's only article?  They already have their own personalized articles.  Numerous single wrestlers have at times paired up with another wrestler, but that doesn't necessarily mean that a completely seperate article is necessary.  If their team ups are mentioned in the main article for both individual wrestlers, why does it need it's own entry?

I suspect that there won't be much else in the way of reference material for this entity (Clipper) because it was almost certainly created for only one purpose, which is to facilitate one real estate purchase.  That's likely to be all there is to know about it: who owns it, what it owns, and when the transaction happened.  The only reason it's interesting is that the scale of the deal is exceptionally large. -- Paul (User:Lpgeffen) 15:47, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Reflections on the Guillotine

message: I've added section headings, internal links and a source to help Wikify the page.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'unbalanced'. The article is about the views of Albert Camus which obviously are unbalanced but everything I have written is based on his essay and is not my opinion. The only part which can be considered my opinion is that his views on the death penalty are similar to that of De Sade (see internal link). If you still think something I wrote is unbalanced then let me know and I'll see if I can sort it out.
Shane.Bell 14:19, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Certainly, when giving the views of someone else, the requirement for balance is alleviated, but there should at least be a nod to the *presence* of dissenting viewpoints.  If the essay has not generated enough criticism for a section devoted to dissenting views, then at least a "see also" or some such can direct the reader to alternate viewpoints.  I never asserted that any of it was your opinion, so that's moot. Deranged bulbasaur 14:31, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel

message: I am dubious as to the relevance of the second paragraph of the lede to this article. The paragraph is as follows:
In April 2017, an extremist drove up to a parked police van and opened fire on three police officers. The attack took place along the Champs-Elysees, between the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel and the Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile. One officer died and the other two were injured. The attacker ( a French citizen ) was shot dead by other officers at the scene. [2]

message: The entry "Christian Special Forces"... Is this a joke? Google shows 14 hits, all out of context, or said in jest.
I just can't imagine a team of eight people, crucifix in the right hand, Holy Bible in the left, raiding a house of an evolutionist for a just cause. Reverend kicks the door down. Steps inside. Dust falling slowly down around him, silhouetted by the descending sun behind him. He takes a step inside the house, his team waiting around the door with little jesus-shaped microphones in their helmets. Suddently, a sound. A rabid evolutionist throws himself at the reverend. He falls over, trying to isert the spiked end of the crucifix into his heart, but it is deflected by a rib. The evolutionist pulls out Principia Mathematica, and attacks the reverend; he goes straight for the head. Suddently.. okay I took this too far. Although it would make a great movie. Sorry.

message: George Stephenson was a mechanical engineer, not a civils one, He could do a basic survey of levels, but he did not possess the skills and education for a structure of this magnitude. In a paper "Innovative or derivative? The design of the bridge structures on the
world’s first intercity railway between Liverpool and Manchester" By Mike Chrimes of the ICE Panel for Historical Engineering Works, 2018. He finds that while George Stephenson did make rough sketches, his young team, including Thomas Longridge Gooch and Joseph Locke would translate those sketches into full drawings in the evening, but the Directors of the Railway were not convinced and brought in Jesse Hartly (of Liverpool's Docks fame) and he revised the plans, as he did with many of the bridges along the line, as some of Harley's and his father's techniques are present in many of the bridges including the Rainhill Skew Bridge. Mike Chrimes concludes that the design of the bridges should be credited to all those involved, but surely without the expertise of Hartley, we would not still be enjoying them today?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by LMRT (talk • contribs) 14:58, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
