Talk:Robert Gerhard

message: Is this the same Roberto Gerhard of Catalan that was briefly an exile in 1949?
If he is that same individual, why was he an exile from Catalan, and how did he earn a living between 1949 and 1951?   216.99.201.10 (talk) 04:23, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible ambiguity 

message: On 27 February 2012, the title of this article was changed by User:Deskford from "Robert Gerhard" to "Roberto Gerhard", with the edit summary "This is the name by which the composer is predominantly known". I see that, today, this change to the usual form of his name outside of Catalonia has been reverted, but I fail to find the expected discussion and change of consensus here on the talk page. The usual rule on English Wikipedia is that the form of name most commonly used in English sources is the one that should be adopted. I am not aware that this policy has been changed recently, and I notice that Pablo Casals has not been changed (at least, not yet) to "Pau Casals".—Jerome Kohl (talk) 19:39, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Rocco Valenti

message: This article is completely, totally, wrong.  Rocco Valenti and Umberto Valenti were TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE!  I don't know where this writer got his misinformation from, but there is a lot of it in the internet.  It does not appear that the writer actually read the books cited since Critchley and Dash did not conflate the two people.  I don't know about Sifakis, but he is not a serious researcher like the other two.
Rocco Valenti was the one who was connected with the Camorra gangsters and lived in Troy, New York.  He was not Sicilian, and was not a significant member of the Camorra.  Umberto Valenti, on the other hand, was Sicilian and was a member of Salvatore D'Aquila's outfit.  After Valenti tried to kill Joe Masseria and missed a meeting was arranged two days later.  Valenti was ambushed and killed while standing on the running board of his car in lower Manhattan in 1922.  Rocco Valenti continued his life elsewhere, probably in Troy.RickW7x2 (talk) 20:34, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

message: I remember seeing last month that there was a period (I believe from 1867) up through 1868 where his ability to act as a congressman had been suspended by the House due to allegations it seems related to electoral fraud or something on his part.

Talk:Gipsy Smith

message: Sonnie Gibbard who lost his father young as in WW2 his father had refused to surrender to the Japanese and was killed. Sonnie who was the eldest son had to provide for his family became stuntman for Burt Lanchester at approx' 16 yrs of age. After a few years made enough income to provide for his family so he decided to joined the army where the recruiting office was just across the road from where he lived at the time 
He went on to fight in the Korean War where I believe he was bombed by the Americans in friendly fire. Repaired from this he carried on serving in the army where he was recruited into the SAS special forces. During patrol in Burma with his sergent and a team of Gurkhas they were ambushed by gorilla terrorists and were gunned down. Sonnie being shot up and thought dead by his attackers with the will to survive managed to crawl miles through jungle carrying his dead sergent with him back to camp. He could not remember the journey due to loss of blood etc but upon coming to in hospital was able to lay a reaf on his sergents grave. whilst doing so he had a feeling that this is where his father was buried. Sure enough upon looking it up he was also able to lay a reef for his father.
When coming out of the army he had seen so much action that the goverment decided him not fit for public life and pinned a murder on him. Whilst in prison he found Christianity which changed his life and ways and he in time was release into public life where he serves God. He is now also the president of the Gypsy council where he represent travellers for educateion and better rights etc. He also travels around Europe speading the Gospel.
I understand that Sonnie is the Grandson of Rodney Smith and I have heard him say it but who was his Mother? obviously his Mother was a daughter of Rodney.
:Sonnie Gibbard cannot be a grandson of 'Gipsy' Smith, who had only one daughter, Rhoda Zillah Smith, who married a man called Lean. Hence her children, the grandchildren of 'Gipsy', were also called Lean. I am going to remove this claim from the article until it is substantiated with references and sources. Jack1956 (talk) 09:15, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Likewise I have removed this: "A descendant of 'Gipsy' Smith is Reverend David Roualeyn Findlater Bain (or Reverend Roly Bain), who is a "liturgical clown for all seasons." He travels extensively every year, sharing the Gospel in his own unique way." as it is unreferenced. If anyone has a reference and can explain how Bain is related to Smith it can go back.

thread_title: Untitled

message: I'm not sure this Cesaire section is appropriate here. Cesaire's reading of Caillois is deliberately tendentious, misquoting him frequently as an avatar for a politics that Caillois didn't have and was not arguing in the Illusion a Rebours essay. It is notable that Caillois is mentioned in such an important book, but while he's singled out for special mention, it's for a few pages out of a longer essay. Here is an article discussing Cesaire's polemical use and abuse of Caillois' essay. "Civilization" and the Self-Critical Tradition, by Daniel Gordon I can imagine a fruitful paragraph that has a balance of perspectives on Cesaire's reading, but that would take up even more of this article. Given the implication the section suggests for Caillois' work in general, I think it should be removed. Infocidal (talk) 21:56, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

message: Who is to say that Bell didn't do what Private Eye alleged? Jeffrey Archer committed perjury at his 1987 libel trial, and John Major sued Scallywag magazine for saying he had been having an affair with Claire Latimer. In fact, it was Edwina Currie he had an affair with! They named the wrong person! This occurred when the press and public were more deferential about politicians.... or at least when scandals didn't come out in the open as much as now...— Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.102.31.178 (talk) 10:06, 4 February 2010
He died at about 2.00 pm, after chairing a meeting in Methodist Central Hall where Enoch Powell had been speaking and was hurrying to catch a train at Marylebone Station where he had arranged to meet a member of his family. He would not have been late. There was no liaison with a mistress, had she existed. Private Eye had no sources at all.....just conjecture because an MP had been in Westminster on a Saturday!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.174.191.83 (talk) 00:11, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The tale that he died whilst having sex with his mistress resurfaced in the papers again today.
