Talk:Haldor Halderson

message: Why is this page at "Haldor Halderson"?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.160.197.78 (talk) 18:20, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Eurohockey, HockeyReference, HockeyDB, Eliteprospects and Olympedia appear to agree to Haldor being born on January 6th, 1900.
The gravestone as picture of which is posted on his grave profile at findagrave appears to indicate the year 1899.
Where did January 7th come from? Where did 1898 come from?
I gave my best shot to looking him up in the 'Book of Icelanders' whose access is limited to Icelandic residents as far as I know but wasn't able to confirm anything.
So in regards to that, a definite source to Haldors date of birth would be nice. Lafi90 (talk) 06:32, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @Lafi90 He is not listed in Íslendingabók, most likely as he was not born in Iceland and was never an Icelandic citizen. This 2002 article in the Icelandic Morgunblaðið lists his birth date as January 6, 1899. This death notification from 1965, lists him as 66-years old at the time of his death which does concur with him being born in 1899. However, this 1930 article from the Kansas City Times states he was born on January 2, 1900. But it also wrongly states his first name is Harold, not Haldor, so its reliability can be questioned. Alvaldi (talk) 13:49, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Category talk:Dual-language series of texts

message: I can think of Classical texts published with facing translations in Swedish (Astrom Editions: Greek, Latin), and in German (Tusculum).  More than one Italian publisher does Classical texts together with modern-language texts (BUR Classici, Bompiani "Il pensiero occidentale").  Not that I think any of these is too likely to get an article soon.  Other interesting publishing ventures: Chinese/English (Classics of Chinese Thought, Library of Chinese Classics); Reformation Texts (Marquette); BYU's Middle Eastern Texts Initiative.  And I hope this category will bring some neat publishing venture to light I hadn't heard of; in particular, surely there are some good series of Medieval texts out there (I did find TEAMS Medieval German Texts, some MRTS titles).

Talk:Harry C. Myers

message: :Myers received the world's first speeding ticket in 1904, in the city of Dayton, Ohio. Police ticketed him for going twelve miles per hour on West Third Street.
The claim above that Harry C. Myers received the world's first speeding ticket has three sources but the second two actually reference the first source as their source, namely Ohio History Central, and that website makes no claim as to which "Harry Myers" this is. The third Find A Grave: Henry C Myers citation (which claims it is "Harry C. Myers the Hollywood actor") is a submitted posting by a member, not a scholarly citation, and is written Mar 12, 2009 one half year after the claim appeared in Wikipediadif, so there is a good chance that person looked it up in Wikipedia, i.e. this is a mirror.

Talk:Jarocho

message: Insofar as it has any racial connotation, the term jarocho refers more to the racial-cultural mixture which developed in the Veracruz region, which was more triracial than the biracial mestizaje in the rest of Mexico.  The third element was African, or AfroCaribbean.  The word is old Spanish for brusk or disordered which may have derived from outsiders' perceptions of some cultural temperment among the people in the vicinity, which may be derived from the ethnic mixture, and/or simply the same as is typically associated with any major port city throughout the world.  Something like what outsiders say about New Yorkers, for example. Tmangray 17:00, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Racial connotation

message: As of July 2014, the Real Academia Española in the dictionary of Spanish language (.../lema.rae.es/drae), shows two acceptions to the word "jarocho": "1) someone natural from Veracruz and 2) said of someone with brusc and somehow insolent manners."

Per WP:BASEBALL and WP:BIO, a player is notable if he played for an MLB team, and because he is related to another coach and two former players, he has more notability for those claims.

message: If anyone knows more about it, there should be a discussion of the memory buffer upgrade Why for example does doubling the memory result is more than double (from 28 to 68) the number of shots in NEF (RAW) (12-bit lossless compressed mode FX mode, but no increase at all in small JPGs (it remains at 130). I suspect this is related to the fact that small files can be shited to main memory at a rate close to the maximum frame rate of the camera, but much larger files can't be transfered as quickly. But a more detailed explanation would be useful.  MightyBig (talk) 16:24, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The artile states the upgrade would expand the camera's memory to "2GB". However, I cannot find any reliable source for this. Nikon itself does not seem to mention the actual amount of memory in their announcement, so, where does this number come from? If this is not coming from a reliable source, but from someone who snapped up something somewhere, can we be sure that "2GB" really means 2 Gigabyte here? I'm asking, because on circuit diagram level (service manual), memory chip capacities are usually given in bits, rather than bytes (for example "1G DDR2 SDRAM" is not 1 GiB, but 128 MiB). So, while this may be interesting information for the techies, if we don't find a good source for this, we should better remove the "2GB" bit, IMHO.-- 84.63.52.9 (talk) 19:53, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

message: This is a problem with this phrase:
*It was first described as a distinct species by the biologist Forsskal in 1775,
"Forsskal" is almost certainly Peter Forsskål (1732–1763), but he died before the date given. The cited source is a paper in a peer-reviewed journal, so we should not lightly reject it. It says:
*The form molestus that was originally described as a species by the Linnaean disciple Forsskål in 1775 from Egypt has since been reduced to represent a bioform (bf.) of the species Cx. pipiens.
Peter Forsskål's date of death is confirmed by various sources
, , . However, his works were publiched posthumously in 1775 (see Peter Forsskål and ). It seems almost certain that the authors of the cited paper did not realise that the Forsskål publication was posthumous. In view of this I will remove the 1775 date as it is unreliably sourced, and give Forsskål's dates to indicate the approximate date of the first description, giving this text:
