Talk:Pitigrilli

message: I noticed that Hohenloh removed a section that I added to the entry on Pitigrilli. The section referred to Pitigrilli's role as an informant of the Fascist secret police OVRA. My edit includes a reference to a book by Alexander Stille, with a link to the corresponding entry on Google books.  This "dark side" of Pitigrilli is supported by several other documents (accurately reported in Stille's text) and is also carefully described in the Italian entry of the Wikepedia for Pitigrilli ( http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitigrilli ). I did not consider this as a controversial item. Nor it affects the literary value (or lack of)  of Pitigrilli's opus. If however Hohenloh is of a different opinion, it would be  appropriate for him/her to add a different perspective. But not to erased and censor  my edit as "spam". SandroMussaIvaldi (talk) 20:41, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm very sorry, but this appears to have been an error on my part -  I see no reason to delete that paragraph. I had several pages open at that time, one of which dealt with German history, and the consensus was that the information in that (German) article was fabricated, and I must have reverted the wrong article! It's quite clear that a source for Pitigrilli was provided, so I would have had no reason whatsoever to claim it was unsourced and it is clearly not spam. Must have been working too late, please accept my apologies. Hohenloh  +   22:19, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for the rapid response. I understand the mistake was unintentional. No big deal. I am new to wiki editing and I don't seem to be able to edit directly Hohenloh's talk page so I am posting this here.

message: :quote: He translated Eve Curie's biography of her mother, Madame Curie (1939), into English.
This needs to be checked and re-expressed or corrected. The first edition was published in 1937 (at Eve Curie#Mother's biography we say simultaneously in several countries including the US). Eve Curie won the U.S. National Book Award for 1937 nonfiction. At best Sheean translated for a later edition and our statement should clearly date the translation and/or its publication. --P64 (talk) 23:21, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Definitions on page 

message: Dear Wikipedia:
I write to bring your attention to the definition of Ordinance you have posted on your webiste.  I have provided for your information the below court case that was filed on January 8, 2008 by the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania which addresses the definition of a law as opposed to an ordinance.  I am of the opinion that if Buckwalter decides to appeal this case to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, the decision of the Commonwealth Court will be overturned.  Let's hope he does that.
If perhaps you may have an avenue by which you can inform lawyers of this decision, I urge you to so inform them of it. I would be interested in reading their opinions relative to the rationale of the court in this decision.  I know that when I read this case, it made little sense to me!  It is quite difficult for me to accept the fact that, in reaching this decision, the court relied on an 1881 case?  (Baldwin v. City of Philadelphia, 99 Pa. 164 (Pa. 1881).  Blackstone says: Ordinance, a law... .  That's the definition you provide, and that's the definition I believe is accurate.  But, I'm not the judge, right?  
For me, the decision in this case (Kendrick Buckwalter v. Borough of Phoenixville) reeks of the judicial irrationality and childish egoism so prevalent in our courts today.  Judge's seem to be competing against one another for stature or something.  It is my hope that they might start acting like adults, and stop acting like schoolchildren.  
Here's the case; the LINK to it appears at the end of this message.

Talk:Chronology of the Bible

message: With Methualeh being a 900 year old human, standard biblical chronology has been disputed for several thousand years.
There are thousands of papers of people trying to correct for these differences, like dividing Methusalehs 900 years by 12 to get 75 years old.
Here is an 1 example of a proposed corrected Biblical Timeline:

thread_title:  Standard Biblical Chronology is highly disputed before David 

message: Paul was talking about covenants and their ratification (Galatians 3:15-18).  The 430 years refers to when the covenant was ratified, which happened when Israel entered Egypt, long after Abraham died.  So the 430 years agrees with Exodus 12:40-41.

Talk:Quentin S. Crisp

message: I have added that Shrike was the first I-novel in the English language to Quentin S Crisp's Wikipedia article. This is the explicit importation of a significant literary technique from Japanese into the current major world language, English, and the sort of thing that would be taken note of in the minutia of an academic text; or, to put it differently, 'the English I-novel' is itself a novel concept. That Shrike is an I-novel is easily locatable in Lisa Tuttle's introduction to it and can be independently verified by any specialist in the traditional I-novel writers with sufficiently good English. That Shrike was the first explicit I-novel in English is, I'm afraid, a bit trickier to prove, but, where there are no obvious contenders, I leave it unless someone can find an earlier-published example. I have contacted a number of academics for verification and shall update and when relevant source as replies arrive.
I shall also add some other references, such as to the Spectator article of last year mentioning the author, as well, as time (that stingy old curmudgeon) permits over the next few months.
Since all this looks more, not less, than the credentials of, e.g., many of the genre authors who have untagged pages on here and artist and author articles the tagger of this page himself created (which, and you might think I am being quite cheeky rather than completely sincere with this, I assume adhere to and demonstrate an acceptable bar of allowability), I have removed the 'notability' tag for now.
It looks like this author's page has been very poorly tended over the years. I shall do my best to trim the weeds and plant the flowers of reliable sources—again, as a busy schedule permits—over the coming months.
I hope you're all very very well. FanoftheWayfarerCycle (talk) 16:15, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Adopted a son? 

message: During the summer of 1961, a high school friend got me a job to help him in the mail room at the Eastern Steamship Corporation located on about 8th St. and Biscayne Blvd., Miami, FL. By 1962 we were entitled to our vacation and so we got onboard the ship Ariadne. A seven day cruise with stops in Jamaica, Haiti and Nassau. It was on that trip we somehow befriended  “Wally” Wanger as he was introduced to us. He was a much older stylishly dressed  man than we and accompanied by a much younger woman than he named “Holly.” Holly was a redhead and definitely a “show girl” because it turns out she was part of the nightly entertainment singing. During the seven days we socialized with them off and on in passing.
After the trip we were invited to lunch at a home where they were living or staying somewhere in Miami and that was it. It wasn’t until about 40 years later when I had the time to enjoy Turner Classic Movies, that I see his name on the screen and the TCM hosts mentioning him and I said... “Well now ain't that a kick-in the-head!”  Carlos E.
