Talk:Holless Wilbur Allen

message: Okay, so, while the findagrave source listed before does indeed say 1865-1965, this seems inconsistent with the information on here (and other sources) that say he was granted the patent in 1969 (or in a few sources, 1967), and *then* became a manufacturer. (I found one source talking about Allen granting licenses to manufacture, unfortunately, it's totally OR to say that means he was alive after 1969, even if it's obviously so. Unfortunately, the fact that my dad took some photographs for an archery magazine of Allen and his wife, probably in the late 70s or so, are also OR.) Anyway, that's why I've removed the listed DOB/DOD there - it seems completely inconsistent. umrguy42 22:07, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Hi there . Thank you for your edit, however, I had to revert it as I believe it violates several Wikipedia guidelines. First of all, your reference is from 1911 and thus outdated (WP:AGEMATTERS). Secondly, who are its authors? What are their degrees, notability, etc.? (WP:RS) Secondly, where exactly does the 1911 ref discredit that what the modern historian Giorgio Riota says in the reference from the year 2000? The excerpt you linked certainly does not as far as I can see. You'll really need a proper modern source that specifically discredits the statement by Rota if we were to discuss this any further I'm afraid. Best, - LouisAragon (talk) 18:26, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Origin

message: it is well known that the Mamluks brought many Armenian slaves to egypt, since Armenians had more interaction with the Mamluks it is more probable for Rustam to have been Armenian than Georgian. Rustam even asked Armenian merchants to bring his Mother to france, therefor he knew to speak Armenian.

http://www.armeniens.culture.fr/article133.html  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.168.56.242 (talk) 16:17, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The source that Rota uses is La jeunesse mouvementée de Roustam ou comment le Géorgien devint le Mameluk de Napoléon (Bedi Kartlisa, Paris, 1976). So it seems to have been published by a journal that wanted to emphasize a Georgian background. However, important Napoleon historians such as J. Christopher Herold and Jonathan North wrote that he was Armenian. From reading Roustam's memoirs, he clearly considered himself Armenian and even claimed Armenians are braver than Georgians and Mingrelians. And though he was born in Tbilisi, he grew up in Askeran, which he called his homeland and is where his father was from. So there seems to be a stronger weight that Roustam considered himself Armenian. I also removed the "Razmadze" name because I could not find a source for it. --KhndzorUtogh (talk) 00:15, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
