Talk:Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg

message: There appears to be some disagreement with the names of his wives.  Most sources (see independent.co.uk, elmundo.es and abd.es) say:
*Second marriage to the actress Jocelyn Lane.
*Third marriage to Marilys Haynes
...but several geneological & peerage sites (see: thepeerage.com, Landersgen.com and geneall.net) say:
*Second marriage to the actress Jacqueline Lane.
*Third marriage to Marilys Healing
So which is it: reliable, presumably fact-checked news sources, or geneological and peerage site who have an interest in getting such details correct?  Astronaut (talk) 15:37, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Hello, there is someone (or a group of people) who obviously has some interest in hemp. This person is trying to impose his interpretation of the painting "Germania" on Wikipedia. This has already happened in several Wikipedia language versions.
Factual background: The painting from 1848 shows a female figure holding an olive branch. Which plant it is, I personally dare not judge. But the specialist literature says: olive branch. Nothing else. This is also the common symbolism in such paintings. (Symbol of peace.)
The "hemp vandal", on the other hand, wants to spread the opinion that the plant is a hemp plant. Among others, the hemp museum ("Hanfmuseum") in Berlin is cited as a source. Other sources are also questionable.
Particularly problematic: The Hemp Vandal has also falsified an original quote. The art historian Rainer Schoch described the plant as an olive branch. (I had the article in hand myself and added the quote to Wikipedia in German). The hemp vandal single-handedly turned it into a "hemp plant", as if Schoch himself had written it that way. 
In Wikipedia in German, the article "Germania" was protected for a long time. Now, however, a hemp friend is active again. (I don't know if it's the same person; sometimes it's an IP, sometimes a user name).
Please stay alert, in Wikipedia in English and elsewhere. Ziko (talk) 18:24, 23 September 2023 (UTC)

message: Isn't that paragraph a little out of place. The heart of the article is, I take it, the German sense of belonging to a Heimat. What International law doctrines are attached to the word "Homeland" or "Heimat" 
seems a little off topic. 88888 23:07, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: International law

message: The part on Heimat being a concept which rejects all things foreign and thus being susceptible to the Nazis needs to be removed and changed.  Look at Celia Applegate's analysis of how the Nazis manipulated Heimat (Nation of Provincials).  She argues, that Nazis essentially forced regions to be outward looking (in line with Nazi ideology).  Thus the inward looking orientation and experiencing of the local was made impossible.  Thus, the Nazi experience didn't win over the concept of Heimat, they took over the concept and drained it of all of its previous meaning.  It is also worth pointing out that regional separatists were put into concentration camps.  Afterwards, Heimat and regional identity would be used ot try to cut regions away from the national idea.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.245.10.179 (talk) 02:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nazis 

message: The section on 'Nazis' was written by a German speaker (comma before 'that' is fairly common among German speakers). There is a reasonable body of literature that has attempted to deal with the Nazi manipulation of Heimat (Google: Heimat und Nazionalismus), which the anonymous writer might to do well to consult.
'Heimat' has a set of meanings for German speakers, largely because it is a German word. 'Home' has a set of meanings for English speakers, largely because it is an English word. After twenty years of living in Germany, I can no longer describe Liverpool, my birth place, as 'home' except in an historically emotional sense. My 'home' is Germany because my family lives here, I work here and, more importantly, I pay taxes here. Pamour (talk) 22:15, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Schützenverein

message: Hi there, this is my first comment ever in Wikipedia, so forgive if I made a mistake. However, I noticed a heavy mistake in the introduction to this Article: The part "Schützen" of the name is translated with "to protect", which is not exactly correct. "To protect" in German is "schützen" with a small "s", but with a capital "S" (as in "Schützen") it translates to gunner or shooter, which also is the German meaning of that term. I'd translated the word literally as Shooter's Club... Thanks. - NovaColonel  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.49.40.204 (talk) 11:03, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Untitled 

message: I'm surprised to find no article on the distinctive "Schützen" rifles so often seen from the 19th century era. Not even a redirect or mention on the disambiguation page. I assume they are related to these organizations, because they were brought to the US by German immigrants. They are very distinctive, with single-shot barrels, fancy iron sights, and long metal prongs on the butt to help keep the gun located on the shoulder. They are fired standing, offhand, and I think maybe one handed, or with the left hand held very close to the firing hand, with a very short fore end and an exposed barrel. That would explain the need for the metal prongs to keep the gun held horizontal.

Talk:Ludovico Racaniello

message: I added this template despite the fact I have identified the source as the Italian Wikipedia, from which I translated the article. 
However, the article there cites no sources and I have been unable to discover anything about Racaniello outside of Wikipedia and its mirrors. 
Despite the fact that a duchy (ducato) of Racaniello is mentioned in the text—implying that Ludovico is a duke—there is nothing on the Racaniello family at the genealogical site http://www.sardimpex.com/ – not even a Racaniello marrying into another family. Indeed the Giulia Albizzi named as his wife and and the daughter of Maso, doesn’t appear as one of the latter’s children on the page http://www.sardimpex.com/degli%20Albizzi/Albizzi7.htm.
Odd. It is possible that the article is a spoof. Or that it is exaggerating Ludovico’s importance. —Ian Spackman 06:54, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Konditorei

message: This section (not just this page) is a complete mess. I've just translated a Polish text about desserts and confectionaries, and by following the Polish Cukiernia link I wind up here. My basic problem is that the topic is not covered properly in the English section, so writing a page about German cake shops is insane. Maybe Konditorei is used in other languages but it's certainly not in common parlance in the English language. Perhaps we should also have a separate article about Swedish cake shops or maybe Armenian ones too? The simplest solution to this problem is to dump this page and merge the pages about patisseries and cake shops into one sensible article. After that maybe we can talk about having a Konditorei section on the corrected page. 78.11.154.119 (talk) 00:44, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: This article is so poorly written, therefore it makes it easy to be missing the larger cultural importance of the Konditorei. Firstly, Konditorei exists in many different countries (something you would not know by reading the article in it's current state. Secondly, this isn't just merely a "German cake shop" in many places in the world (beside Germany) a Konditorei is part of a larger cultural event of breakfast and was an early example of a "coffee house". I have heard Konditorei's influenced the development coffee culture in places outside of Europe (Starbucks, etc.) but I have yet to find a citation for that.
