Talk:Andrew Wauchope

message: At 11:52, 18 May 2019, 58.173.116.28 indicated, but did not provide a valid citation/reference, when 'reading my late father's notes written in 1949. He was Sidney Irwin an electrical engineer living then in Kimberley. Interested in Boer War history he interviewed at transport driver who told him the story.
:Wauchope was buried at first near the Magersfontein battlefield but due to a mix-up with a cable from his wife, his body was exhumed and sent to Matjiesfontein, which was a small station some 450 miles away.
His body certainly was exhumed,  but no indication as to why the movement.  There was also a battle occurring at Matjiesfontein in the same week, so both areas were battlefields.   A 1916 newspaper article does say the body was also moved erroneously, but not why it was an error. 
On the other hand, James Douglas Logan, the 'Laird of Matjiesfontein' was now a well-established Scotsman in South Africa, involved in establishing cricket in the country, and may have been connected through acquaintances known to the general's wife.  She wanted the grave in a place that she could have it moved back to the family vault in Scotland.  Q8682 (talk) 16:14, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Wisconsin Educational Communications Board

message: Notability Penlite (talk) 14:30, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

message: This topic definitely seems to me to fulfill the requirements of WP:NOTABILITY, as it covers a sizeable state government agency, the Wisconsin Educational Communications Board (ECB) with a vast influence far beyond its size -- literally reaching every corner of the state, overseeing ALL public telecommunications -- public television, public radio stations, weather radio stations, Emergency Alert and Amber Alert networks, and the state's educational programming online network -- throughout the entire state.
Few states have so vast and integrated a public telecommunications enterprise.  I've worked in public broadcasting, in public safety, and in public education, in other states (not in Wisconsin), and have never seen anything else remotely like it in scale or reach.
It literally educates or alerts almost everyone in the entire state of Wisconsin, throughout their lifetime, from kindergarten through adulthood -- an educational and public service information impact, and cultural influence,  that is probably unparalleled by any other single institution or organization in the state -- or within any other state. Extraordinary. Exceptionally "notabie."
Specifically worth noting is that the Wisconsin ECB essentially oversees many public TV and radio stations -- and Wikipedia routinely considers each of them to be sufficiently notable to merit articles about each one.  So the parent entity that rules them all, across a whole state, should then, surely also, merit a Wikipedia article. Indeed, it would be negligent to not do so, IMHO.

Talk:Filimer

message: If Filimer chased the witches that became the mothers of the Huns, how can he fit in in the late 2nd century AD? Jordanes places this guy in the very distant past, way before Pythagoras. /Pieter Kuiper 21:25, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Origin of the Huns 

message: I wonder why Pieter Kuiper removed the interesting diachronic map on this page. His argument that it is "anachronistic" does not sound very convincing since it is diachronic.--Berig 18:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Filimer is 1000 BC according to Jordanes, give or take a few centuries. The map does not have anything to do with that period. /Pieter Kuiper 18:59, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Was Berig struck with blindness? Or is this nitpicking about a few years between the defeat of Witiges and Jordanes writing the Getica?

Nope, because now there is no Star Mazda article.
Apparently the history of the Pro Mazda series goes back to 1983!
Seriously ppl, start a new article for a new series, or make it EXPLICIT and CLEAR that this is a renaming of an old one. Chaosdruid (talk) 00:00, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

So, the question is, do we move this page to reflect the change in series, or do we make a new page for Indy Pro 2000 and leave this on separate? I'd assume the former since it's still the same series with a different name, but I think it best to discuss that bit before actually doing it. --Waluigithewalrus (talk) 19:24, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Wladimir Köppen

message: The original Russian is pronounced Vladimir, so why is the transliteration Wladimir? There isn't even a w-letter in the Russian alphabet. 65.113.71.3 (talk) 20:03, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: When he wrote in other languages, he spelled his given name Wladimir. --Una Smith (talk) 18:47, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  That's the short, sweet and totally sufficient answer.  Here's a way too long one: "W" in German is pronounced like the "V" in English (e.g. Wagner), and the Russian name Владимир is transcribed (and exists independently in German) as Wladimir (see, e.g., de: Wladimir Wladimirowitsch Putin).  In English, typically, we do not transliterate names in other languages that use the Latin alphabet, and Wagner remains Wagner without becoming Vagner.  So, since Köppen lived and published and spent the bulk of his professional career in Germany in Austria, he comes to us as Wladimir. Eliezg (talk) 19:21, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Why "Wl"?

message: First, please forgive my poor English. Austria was annexed into Nazi Germany before Köppen's death. Therefore when he died, the city of Graz was part of Nazi Germany.

Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Kmweber

message: I mostly agree, but I take exception to the statement that Kmweber's actions demonstrate "disregard and disrespect for long-standing community consensus".  He explains his view on the candidate.  What more do we require of those participating in RFA?  He is giving his opinion in the relevant forum.  Yes, this opinion is unpopular, but this does not demonstrate disrespect or disregard for community consensus.  It simply demonstrates that Kmweber has an unusual view on self-nominations.  Disagreement need not mean disrespect.  Andrevan's strong words may have an unfortunate and undesirable chilling effect on minority opinion. Friday (talk) 21:43, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: His view is not a view on the candidate because he does not look at the candidate at all. He is opposing a procedure, one that is supported by the community since RfA has existed. Andre (talk) 21:46, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree.  He's not saying "self noms should not be allowed, therefore I oppose", he's saying "a self nom indicates to me that this editor is power hungry, therefore I oppose."  Perhaps a small distinction, but I see these as two very different things.  Friday (talk) 21:54, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: But he also uses the term prima facie, meaning that a self-nom by itself is reason to oppose and therefore he does not need to evaluate the candidate, and he does this on EVERY self-nomination. It's true that he's not claiming that self-noms should be disallowed, but he seems to think that self-noms disqualify candidates. Andre (talk) 21:59, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not very bothered by the "prima facie", myself.  If someone nominated themselves several times, once every few weeks, I'd call this prima facie evidence that the candidate is impatient and has poor judgment.  As I consider those undesirable qualities in an admin, it's likely I'd oppose on those grounds.  Nothing wrong with this, as far as I can see.  Friday (talk) 14:25, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not that I have a problem with prima facie reasoning in general, but that it's being used regarding a standard part of RfA procedure. A single, not particularly overeager or impatient self-nomination by anyone at any time is viewed as evidence of power-hunger, without reviewing a candidate's contributions or qualifications. This is against the entire concept of RfA. Andre (talk) 21:05, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Chifa

message: Not to be a jerk but it is not clear that this article is appropriate as is. Mind you, it's neat to see an article about something from my childhood.
What is really the topic here? In other words, the word "Chifa" does not by itself justify an article (Wikipedia is not a dictionary). There has to be a unique topic.
Is the article about the restaurants? It is not really clear that the businesses, in and of themselves, deserve a unique article. There are Chinese restaurants all over the world.
Is it about the Peruvian-Cantonese cuisine? That seems more worthwhile as far as an article. However the stub does not seem to be indicating that is really the focus. Also, can one say that Peruvian-Cantonese is unique enough that it merits a separate discussion from Cantonese cuisine? Not sure but unless somebody can offer some meaningful distinction then this should probably be dumped.
The other obvious question is whether it is more appropriate to title the article "Chifa" or "Peruvian-Cantonese cuisine". Although I hate to say it, Chifa is a very colloquial expression in Peru (and it is not really known outside Peru). It seems more appropriate to use Peruvian-Cantonese and mention Chifa as a colloquial name (and, of course, have a redirect for Chifa).
