Talk:Tres leches cake

message: There was a recent change of reckoned origin from Nicaragua to Venezuela with dubious sources. I've seen most sites mention Mexico. Where does this cake really originate from? I don't just mean a cup-cake version. Nasnema  Chat  21:52, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's contested between Mexico and Nicaragua, and Mexico usually gets credit despite most "decent" sources (aren't any good ones for this, to be honest) citing Nicaragua as having originated it. I unfortunately do not know enough history of the region regarding wars and such, but I imagine that'd be the key to finding out given the turbulent history in both regions. · AndonicO Engage. 03:14, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Origins

message: Why is there a sentence claiming potential european origins of the idea of making a cake submersed in liquid? The citation is a single poorly put together article from 2004. I don't see the point of this addition, its blatant Eurocentrism and should absolutely be removed. 
Ptn444 (talk) 03:13, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  You continue to remove the sentence, "However, the idea for creating a cake soaked in a liquid is likely of Medieval European origin, as similar cakes, such as British Trifle and rum cake, and tiramisu from Italy, use this method." Please explain why you are removing this sentence. —FormalDude(talk) 03:34, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no reason to assume, really at all, that this Concept is of "European" origin. The supplied citation does nothing to provide evidence for this. What is the motivation to establish this non-fact?

message: I've gone through and added wiki-formatted inline citations where possible through the article, using the reference list provided at the end. They can be accessed via linked footnotes in the text and the Notes section near the bottom of the page. For the time being I'll leave the original list there in case it's of use to editors, but in the long run all the entries that are cited in Notes should be removed from the References list to avoid duplication.
However this has raised two issues:
# There are very few inline sources mentioned prior to the Hydrogeology section -- could someone with better knowledge of the content perhaps add markers to show which statements are backed up by references? If they are marked simply with (surname, initials, year) I'd be happy to follow up and apply the proper formatting as I've done with the other citations so far.
# There's one reference cited which isn't in the References list at the end of the article: "Meliva et al., 1969" (mentioned in 2nd paragraph of Hydrogeology) has no corresponding entry in the reference list. Is the year 1969 a mistake, or is there an entry missing from the reference list?

thread_title: Comment

message: Hi there. I was the pilot of the mission to the bottom of the Puerto Rican trench (Victor Vescovo). My Chief Scientist on the expedition, Dr. Alan Jamieson, after consultation with his colleagues ashore and using our advanced sonar maps, determined that the deepest point was actually closer to the named "Brownson Deep" location than the Milwaukee Deep. In fact, the location of the Brownson Deep was a bit off so we have the new coordinates for it: 19° 43’ N  067° 18’ W  8376m
So, just to clarify . . . based on all of our sonar mapping and the first physical dive to it, we believe that the proper name for the deepest point in the Atlantic is the Brownson Deep, not Milwaukee, and we made this determination based on proximity of the actual deepest location.

Talk:Big Love (Fleetwood Mac song)

message: There's a statement that this is played on a "gutted Gibson Chet Atkins SST with a capo on the fourth fret and a synth pickup".  My first confusion on this was whether "gutted" mean "restrung with gut" or "disemboweled in some sense".  I gather it's the latter, i.e. the "synth pickup" replaces the stock electronics.  But it's cited with a source that provides exactly none of this. Seems likely to be true, as I see statements to that effect in WP:UGC-grade content, and it looks (to my very untrained eye and indeed ear) consistent with what he's playing in concert footage.  Or true-ish, at least:  some of the comments say it's a CEC or a CE, rather than an SST.  109.255.211.6 (talk) 16:24, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
