Talk:Jacobite succession

message: , following your edit, I'd like to reinstate the hidden note. Here's my thinking: firstly, I don't think the IPs who keep replacing II with III have that in mind (and indeed just replacing II with III would still be inconsistent with the Mary Queen of Scots point of view). It's just a practical question of cutting down on unnecessary reverts. Secondly, I think that source is a rather idiosyncratic POV, and there might be a WP:DUE question in following it. It's always a bit murky claiming what is and isn't RS on a topic like Jacobite Succession but I haven't seen others making this point and certainly the cited source against Mary (Petrie) refers to her as II only. It may well be consistent with an ultra-legitimist Catholic POV but I don't think it's necessarily "Jacobite" to regard Elizabeth as a usurper. I'm just conscious of the repetitive mistake we get of thinking James II's sister should be in the counting, though. Would a wording that goes along the following work for you: "Do not delete "II" and replace with "III": The Jacobites did not recognise James II's sister as Mary II so did not figure in their reckoning." i.e. it adding III isn't necessarily excluded.

thread_title:  Mary II/III 

message: I remain skeptical of the form "Henry, Cardinal of York".  He was titular Duke of York, not Cardinal of York.  (Most archbishops are also cardinals, but they are not "Cardinal of [diocese]"; anyway Henry was not a bishop, afaik.)  He is very commonly called "Cardinal York", but this is the only place I've ever seen that of.
But, you know what?  If you insist on it, you're welcome to it, along with all the redundant (albeit accurate) repetition that you love so much.  You have succeeded in chasing me away from giving a shit.  Unwatching now. —Tamfang (talk) 21:22, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you. Appreciated. (In my revert I linked to the Fitzwilliam Museum page entitled Henry, Cardinal of York. Googling would have shown you how common use of the the idiosyncratic title "Cardinal of York" is including in book titles, Britannica (2nd paragraph), other RS, news media, National Gallery of Art in DC, the website of the British Parliament etc and not just for Henry Stuart either but for Thomas Wolsey too eg this and Shakespeare!. It's pretty standard stuff even if it is unfamiliar to you - I'm sorry you're so uninformed. That's what Google's for if you care to use it.) DeCausa (talk) 21:31, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

message: The article as I wrote it is a stub and need citations, reformatting, etc.  I wrote what I wrote simply to get the ball rolling.  I apologize for its briefness.
I could have sworn he had a Wikipedia article.  He clearly deserves one.  It would be easy enough to find evidence that his remasterings of pre-1948 recordings are often considered among the best ever done.  He produced the JSP versions of the Louis Armstrong Hot 5's and 7's, and appeared to have had a hand in the vastly improved Robert Johnson releases of very recent years.Sojambi Pinola 06:07, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

:Gilt bronze objects sold in the Palais Royal, Paris? --Wetman 19:56, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm unfamiliar with this term, "palais royale ormolu" but the traditional technique in all French gilding of brass/bronze during the C18 and C19 was that of mercury gilding, now banned. --Wetman 20:10, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

message: According to various dictionaries (Chambers, Dictionary.com, thefreedictionary.com) ormolu is defined primarily as an alloy of copper, zinc and sometimes tin, which may be used to imitate gold. Such an alloy is described in this article as an alternative to ormolu. It seems to me that the article ought to at least acknowledge that the term ormolu is not exclusively applied to the mercury amalgam process it primarily concerns itself with, even if said process is the original meaning and the main subject of the article.

Talk:G. Harry Stine

message: I hope someone has a link to a reliable report but G. Harry Stine was dismissed from his column at Analog late in his career, IIRC for plagiarism. That incident hardly defines his life or career but someone coming to this article knowing that fact (as I did) would expect it to be addressed. It's mentioned at least here and here. --71.174.161.183 (talk) 00:04, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Shortly before his death in 1997 Stine was accused of lifting a bunch of engineering jokes from a Scott Adams book (The Dilbert Principle, 1996) to use in his column called "Engineers Exposed!" (ANALOG, Feb. 1997).  The argument made in defense of Stine is that these were all old engineering humor that everyone knew and that Scott Adams probably first saw them in the same sources Stine did. The matter was allowed to drop when Stine suddenly died later that year. I've seen the Stine column and it does read like Scott Adams, but it also reads exactly like office humor you would have seen pinned on the bulletin board at your engineering job 20 years earlier. I had a look at the Scott Adams book, and once I flipped to the chapter about engineers I didn't have any trouble spotting some bits that are nearly identical to passages in Stine's column, e.g "Lies Engineers Tell", also the bit about the age when female engineers are most attractive. I'm not going to take the time to put them side by side and go through with a highlighter marking up the similarities, so I won't try to say whether it was just two or three old jokes that they mined from the same sources, or a clearcut case of outright plagiarism. 162.83.220.215 (talk) 17:18, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Pura Belpré Award

message: Before I put all the books in one table, there were two lists: one for winners and one for honor books.  I now think this would be a better page if there were two tables: one for narration awards and one for illustration awards.  The reason is because I think its important to list the author of the books that win illustration awards, and the reason I think that's important is because I want to take this list to the library and see if I can find these books.  These books are shelved by author (not illustrator), and it would be a lot faster if I didn't have to use the card catalogue :).  on the other hand, I really like having all the titles in one table.

thread_title:  Consistency 

message: This article needs cleaning up, particuarly it needs a non-technical intro and it needs reorganising to be logical. As an example it currently mentions that the mass of it progenitor (whatever that is) is unusual, and gives a figure for what is normal but doesn't give you any detail on this event's figures until much later.
I get the impression most of the information is in the article, somwhere, but it just needs structure and logical organisation. Thryduulf 01:53, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Intro and organistion

message: The title's needlessly confusing and misleading.  Astronomer's do not refer to this supernova as the "champagne supernova" -- that is a nickname, used in the title of a news-and-views article.  The article should be titled SNLS-03d3bb or SN 2003fg (which conforms to the IAU designation convention used for other articles on particular supernovae).
:I agree, the section of Nature this title comes from is a summary for non-Astronomers. The name used in academic papers is either SN2003fg or SNLS-03d3bb, of which the former is probably a better choice for this article name as it conforms to the naming convention set by other supernovae (SN 1987A for example). Further, this will avoid a confusion with the song. --Falcorian (talk) 00:06, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The neutrality of the article is dubious at best.
