Talk:Administrative divisions of Saint Petersburg

message: I have been a little busy with family lately, so I just noticed the district map has been removed. I didn't really get what was wrong with it, if somebody (Ezhiki?) could elaborate what should be changed, I could try to fix it so we could get it back online. Thanks. -- Huopa 19.03.2006
:The reason I commented the map out is that recently two of the city districts (namely Lomonosovsky and Pavlovsky) were abolished.  There is a textual description of the change (in Russian, of course), but I have so far been unable to locate a new map.  Since I don't know for sure if the districts were merged with other districts wholesale, of if they were partitioned, correcting the existing map may not be all that easy.  I guy in the Russian wiki is trying, I believe, to create a new map based on the textual description.  I'll post a note here when there is more information.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) 17:22, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Robert Schlumberger von Goldeck

message: KF, on what basis is using the heading "External links" for one link a mistake? "External links" is a section and I believe using "External link" when there is one link would be just as senseless as using "Reference" on a paper that has one reference or "Footnote" on a page that has one footnote. While yes, technically one of anything should be refered to in the singular sense, when a convential heading name is used, plural is safer. Thats my take. 
If you take a look at the guidelines, one of the examples they give shows the headline "External links" and it only has one item under it.

Talk:Parmenion

message: This article is rather short, and, I feel, much marginalises this great man.  This is a man who played a major part in ensuring the success of one of the greatest military rulers of all time.  nNot only was he an unparallelled stratego, but a friend and confidante to Alexander the Great and his father, Phillip.  This is a man whose deeds surpass those of pretty much any general of that, or any, age.  Therefore he should have a more fitting testament, I feel. (anonymous)

message: According to the 1872 Swartz & Tedrowe's Indianapolis City Directory, Gatling was NOT the president of the Gatling Gun Company in that year. He didn't even appear to be living in Indianapolis.
http://books.google.com/books?id=vkPWAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA9&dq=indianapolis+city+directory&lr=&as_brr=1&cd=14#v=onepage&q=gatling&f=false
The directory lists W H Talbott, a resident of Dresden Germany, as the president and Hillary Clay, a resident of Indianapolis, as the Secretary.
An interesting side note, the 1861 & 1862 City Directories show Richard J Gatling (1862 shows RJ Gatling) as a Real Estate Agent and as a Bill & Note Broker.
The 1898 Hartford City Directory shows the integration of Colt & Gatling and that Dr. Gatling was the president of a veterans of 1840 association. I don't know what the data collection cycle of this directories was, but it's possible that he wasn't president of the company even in 1897.

message: December 12, 2018, it was suggested to merge "soil classification" with "soil type". This would mean to delete the article "soil type" and include its text into "soil classification" (the other way round would be nonsense). From a scientific point of view, this might be possible. From a didactic point of view, it is not recommendable. People who want to be briefly informed what a soil type is, can read the article soil type and don't have to browse through the long article soil classification.

replies: text: The eighteenth-century system wasn't maintained by the British Empire for very long at all after the American Revolutionary War, but rather was entirely rebuilt to take into account the many lessons learnt during the 1760s and 1770s (and to reflect the Constitutional arguments made both by the Patriots in America and the Opposition Whigs in Parliament during that time).  A couple of examples: Parliament never again attempted to impose taxation on or raise revenue from the provinces of the British Empire, and colonies were deliberately put on the path toward achieving responsible government.  Those are two really major changes that are completely at odds with the "outmoded Imperial structure" that was in place while Hutchinson was prominent in Massachusetts and that he sought to preserve.

thread_title: Bias

message: The first sentence of the Exile section reads, "Upon his arrival in London, Hutchinson was granted an audience with the king, who questioned him on affairs in North America, and he was well received by Lord Rockingham, the colonial secretary, and Lord North, the prime minister.Galvin, p. 280"  Rockingham wasn't colonial secretary at this time, or at any other time; and in fact, he was leader of the Opposition in the House of Lords for all eleven years of North's first ministry.  (Granted, because of the ambiguity introduced by the Oxford comma, this might be meant to mean "... well received by Lord Rockingham and the colonial secretary and Lord North.")  So I guess my first question is, does the Galvin reference actually describe Rockingham as colonial secretary?  And if it doesn't, then does it say that Hutchinson that Hutchinson was warmly received by Rockingham and North, or by the colonial secretary (Dartmouth at this point, I think) and North, or by all three of them?  Binabik80 (talk) 01:06, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
