replies: text: What does it mean "In 1948 his parents were deported to Siberia because of their connections to the partisans, he has three adult brothers and sisters that were able to escape the ethnic cleansing" Soviet repressions in the Baltic States were not of an ethnic nature, they were expelled for political and class reasons , for example, many Russian, Polish, German and Jewish residents of the Baltic states were also expelled, it was approximately the same in other Soviet territories like western Ukraine and Belarus and Moldova with Bukovina and Bessarabia, and what serious evidence is there for such facts (except for his personal unsubstantiated statements ), like the fact that his parents were expelled for communication with the partisans, or that at the age of fifteen he was allegedly expelled from school for anti-Soviet statements, if he was expelled, then how did he finish his studies and be able to become an officer and commander of the sea barge MBSS-136150 Цйфыву (talk) 14:26, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Grabow

message: "Grabow was originally settled, together with Blumenthal, in what was then the Prignitz, in the early 13th century by the Counts von Plotho using their vassal by Nikolaus von Blumenthal, of Blumenthal and Grabow (after which the new settlement was named) in the diocese of Magdeburg, as Locator."
Surely, as the Slavonic origin of its name testifies, it would have been originally settled several centuries earlier, by the Polabian/Pomeranian Slavs?

However if you can find an ORICON (or other verifiable news article) article that published total sales (Example B'z single data article: http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/ranking/19236/) then that can be used.

replies: text: I don't know about the first question, but I wondered about the second one myself, and discovered a possible answer at Template talk:ISSN-needed.  User SimonP notes that because the template is directed at editors instead of readers, it belongs on the talk page. Reasonable-sounding advice, but I'm curious about the distinction. This particular template is listed at Wikipedia:Template messages/Maintenance, where in the bottom table a column titled "Where it goes" indicates placement. As far as I can tell, while almost all notice-type templates are indeed directed at editors, they also serve to notify readers with no interest in editing that a particular article may not be up to WP standards. However, if anyone knows of a more articulate rationale for the distinction, I'd be interested in reading it. -Tobogganoggin talk 06:07, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Talk page?

message: Newspaper infobox and magazine ones and so on should do this too, but as noted above, addition of an OCLC should also suffice, one way or another. My suggestion would be to have a "none" value that can be added to the ISSN parameter and not displayed, which will also remove it from this category. There are numerous articles on newspapers and such that predate the existence of ISSNs, and they should not be categorized here. — Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ  Contribs.</span> 00:05, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Doubt it. The Welsh yn Arberth ("in Arberth") was probably mis-analysed by English speakers as i' Narberth. The same process gives us 'nuncle' (from 'mine uncle' → 'my nuncle') in some English dialects, just as the reverse process gives us standard English 'adder' ('a nadder' → 'an adder').

Talk:Abercych

message: After discussion with locals, the following things appear to be true:
# Pont Treseli is the original name of what is now called Pontselli.
# Pont Treseli/Pontselli is a hamlet that is not part of Abercych village.
Confirmation of this can be had by finding house names around Pont Treseli and looking up their postcodes.  Both SA37 0LG and SA37 0LQ are Pontselli, Boncath not Abercych, Boncath (as houses in Penrhiw, Forge Cych and Pont Hercws are).
Google Streetview shows the road sign for Abercych to the north of the Nag's Head Inn, which firmly excludes Pontselli.  https://goo.gl/maps/UHbZhxTzL3HrDjTQ6.
Somewhat rambling supporting testimony from locals is in this Facebook thread https://www.facebook.com/groups/770352783006587/permalink/4223284967713334/.

It likely referred to the former Church in Wales subdivision, as that was more recent, and "community" is already here, equivalent to the English civil parishes.
