Talk:Aurelia of Strasbourg

message: I think that there is a clear confusion here of 2 quite distinct traditions. One is Aurelia von Regensburg, the 11th century Austrian who lived out her life as a recluse in a convent near Regensburg. The other is the legendary 4th century companion of St Ursula & the 11000 virgins, who is supposed to have died while passing thru Strasbourg & whose shrine there became an object of great veneration. The info here is clearly about the first person, so I propose to transfer that to a new page 'Aurelia of Regensburg' and to change this page to refer to the 4th century Strasbourg saint.Eurohatim (talk) 20:49, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Return to Mayberry

message: The article describes Thelma Lou as "newly divorced after less than two years", and later cites that her "first marriage", revealed back in 1966, lasted only 16 months. Since 16 months is "less than two years", it suggests that they could be both referring to the same marriage. But a 16-month marriage from 1966 would not leave her "newly" divorced in 1986, when the movie takes place. It would be helpful if the detail were cleared up in the article as to whether she'd had more than one marriage, or describing her as "newly" divorced is in error. (Is it possible that the movie itself is confusing on that point?) 2601:545:8202:4EA5:88ED:356E:4FF1:F00D (talk) 06:05, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Monument Metro station

message: "During construction of the station in the late 1970s, the monument was temporarily removed."
Something like this really needs a citation. While I wasn't alive at the time the station was being built, nothing I've ever read about the Metro construction or the monument itself has mentioned anything like it.
Not only that, it seems highly implausible, as the monument is so massive. I can envisage them being able to move the monument a few dozen feet if that was necessary (using rollers, as has been done for many buildings and structures), but the idea of actually removing the entire structure, and replacing it at a later date, just does not ring true at all. 217.155.20.163 20:01, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Strictly speaking, the monument is the figure of Early Grey at the top, which was indeed removed during Metro construction, along with parts of the column, as there was a lot of concern that it would fall off due to the vibrations of Metro construction amplified by the principle of leverage. Though this is not, as far as I can tell, mentioned anywhere on the internet, that hardly mean it didn't happen. If someone would like to find the exact dates, they could look it up in the Metro file at Central Library (difficult at present) or the Evening Chronicle at the time.

Talk:Kendrick School

message: The article makes the claim that the the current buildings date back to 1877.
I've no problem with the fact that the school was founded in 1877. However the original home of the school was Watlington House in Watlington Street. That building was taken over by its current owners (an independent charitable trust) in 1931, shortly after Kendrick School moved to its current site.
Admittedly, looking at the current site it seems likely that at least some of the buildings pre-date its use as a school. But it seems awfully coincidental if these buildings just happened to be built the same year as the school was founded on a different site. My suspicion is the author of the statement failed to understand this history, and simply assumed that the date of the buildings = date of foundation.
We need some hard cites to sort this out properly, so I've added a cite needed tag. -- Starbois (talk) 11:29, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
