Talk:1504

message: "* February 14 – King Ferdinand V of Castile contracts with Juan de la Cosa to finance an expedition to the Pearl Islands." - I doubt the veracity of this entry even if we have the same assertion in our article on Juan de la Cosa. The Pearl Islands lie in the Gulf of Panama i.e. off the Pacific coast. Vasco Núñez de Balboa will only discover the Pacific in 1513, nine years after the de la Cosa expedition. Actually, our article on de la Cosa states that this expedition was to go to the Pearl Islands and the Gulf of Urabá to found settlements there; the Gulf of Urabá is on the Atlantic coast of Panama and an expedition there makes perfect sense. Now, the Spanish Wikipedia states that the expedition went to the Isla de Margarita (Margarita Island off Venezuela, discovered by Columbus in 1498) and the Gulf of Urabá and our article on Margarita Island says: "The coast of the island was abundant in pearls, which represented almost a third of all New World tribute to the Spanish Crown" though not explicitly saying that the island was called Pearl Island. Nevertheless, this strongly suggests to me that we have a mix-up here and that it actually should read here (and in Juan de la Cosa "Margarita Island" instead of "Pearl Islands".

Talk:Power Without Glory

message: The article tells us "Abbotsford was known as Carringbush in the 19th century." There is no reference for this and I don't believe it to be true. I believe Hardy simply fictionalised the name Colling-wood to Carring-bush. All references I can find support that view. HiLo48 (talk) 07:14, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Carringbush?

message: To say the novel is set during World War I - as the article currently does, and in those words - is extremely misleading. The earlier events of the novel are set prior to Australian Federation in 1901, and the final pages of the novel are set in the period following World War II. Key portions of Power Without Glory are set during Australia's involvement in World War I, but substantial amounts of it are set before and after that period. Incidentally, the description of the book in the information sidebar as being of the "thriller" genre is very strange. It's not part of that genre any more than the movie Citizen Kane is. Despite the comparatively conventional linear structure of Power Without Glory next to that film, in content and approach it has a great deal more in common with Citizen Kane than it does with any conventions of the 'thriller' genre.

thread_title:  Power Without Glory: Racing the Big-twin Cooper 

message: I have done some work to improve this article:
Changes I have made:
* merging duplicate sections (e.g. no need to have two lists of characters, or two sections on the ABC TV adaptation)
* removing some interesting but un-encyclopedic discussion, particularly in the court case section
* reducing complexity of some multi-clause sentences, to make the article more readable
* refining the plot section into a chronological order, to help make the article serve its purpose
* most notably, I have reduced the extensive character list, which claimed to link characters in the novel with their real-life counterparts. Undeniably the novel is a Roman à clef but no source is given for these allegations, and indeed the page openly states that some of the connections may be vague rather than intentional on the part of the author. 
I have removed only the real-life names that did not have a Wikipedia page, and thus must be considered non-notable from an encyclopedic perspective. But it's possible the whole list should go?
To be clear, I think this list would do really well in a footnoted edition of the novel, or on a fan page. (And I am a fan!) But it's not what Wikipedia is for.
