Talk:Jack Zuta

message: Zuta is listed on List of Jewish American mobsters, but Jack Zuta doesn't say anything about his being Jewish. If he is Jewish, we should say so and include a Reliable Source. If we don't say that he is Jewish in his own article, he should be stripped from List of Jewish American mobsters. —Anomalocaris (talk) 18:45, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Jewish (?) 

message: It's a waste of Wikipedia's resources to have the same conversation on every talk page, which is why there is a series of guidelines, such as the Manual of Style, where such elucidating entries as MOS:HYPOCORISM can be pointed out to and curious (and long-time) editors who can read what the actual policy is instead of edit-war and sanctimoniously hide behind bad-faith calls to BRD as an excuse to edit-war. Jack is a common hypocorism for John, this hypocorism is listed on the common nicknames page, and they are listed on the Wikipedia pages for each other as a common nickname derivation. Ergo, as my edit summarysaid, "common hypocorism readily apparent from birth name, unneeded per MOS" and the page should say "John U. Zuta" in the lede which is what is explicitly called for in the MOS. JesseRafe (talk) 13:05, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I draw your attention to WP:AVOIDYOU. Whilst traditionally Jack was traditionally one of the diminutives of John in England, it is not elsewhere, such as in Scotland where Jock is used. In Australia, Jack is a name in its own right and more common than John. (see Jack (given name)). To avoid confusion for some part of the English speaking world, "John U. Zuta" is not enough. Using the format of some of the examples given in MOS:HYPOCORISM, "John U. Zuta (February 15, 1888 – August 1, 1930) (commonly known as Jack Zuta)" is unambiguous. --John B123 (talk) 16:17, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Site A

message: The article says the marker has been damaged by chiseling off the word "NO" on the marker, but the article doesn't show that the word "NO" actually occurred on the marker.  The closest word is "NOT" in "DO NOT DIG".
Can someone find out what was really on the marker, what was chiseled off, and correct this?  It reads as very incoherent.

thread_title:  When were the granite markers put up? 

message: Site A is more notable as the site of a Metallurgical Laboratory research facility and reactor than it as as part of the subsequent disposal-grounds of that facility and reactor.  'Site A' should be the principal topic and title of this article, with the history of the site disposal included in the article as a sub-section, or sub-sections.   I understand that 'Site A/Plot M Disposal Site' is the name of the two sites considered together as a disposal site, but that is subsidiary to the main topic of Site A as the location of a research facility.  'Site A/Plot M Disposal Site' should not be the article title.  I'm not making a formal move proposal today.  I also note that Red Gate Woods is not notable other than as the location of Site A, and the material currently in that Red Gate Woods article also belongs in this page.  I intend at some point to formally propose that Red Gate Woods be merged into this Site A/Plot M Disposal Site article, which should in turn be renamed to just 'Site A'. - Crosbie 03:59, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Chicago Picasso

message: Whn I was in my teens visiting kin in Chicago in the mid 1970s, I heard some family members (natives of Chicago) discussing the sculpture as a example of Picasso's school-boy humor. They alleged the sculpture (when seen straight on) represented a woman's labia and clitoris. I got the impression that this interpretation was not unique to them, but had been a bit of a scandal when the sculpture was originally installed: giant downtown vulva! If this was a common perception, it should be mentioned,, but I have no idea how one would confirm it. I would be very surprised if any of the local papers would mention it. Has anyone else heard of this story, and how would anyone be able to document it? 165.91.64.125 (talk) 02:56, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:LaSalle Street Tunnel

message: I work in the Reid Murdoch Center at 325 N. LaSalle. The old road access to the north end of the tunnel is in front of the building, but the tunnel is now sealed off.  The Reid Murdoch Center's sub-basement lies over a portion of the tunnel, and a construction superintendent for the landlord described an inadvertent breach into the tunnel.  During a flood in the sub-basement workers jackhammered a hole through the basement slab to drain the water, presumably into the river.  Instead they found the tunnel which was filled with gravel and, acting as a sump, drained the basement very quickly.
The ramp which provided access to the tunnel is still used to get to Carroll Street and grade-level entrances to several buildings in the area. (This part of the city is built up about 25' above grade) There is an abandoned rail spur running along Carroll which goes west under the Merchandise Mart to the old rail bridge at the river, and east beyond Clark Street to regions I have not explored.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.200.133.130 (talk) 18:59, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Streetcar tunnels in Chicago

replies: text: Well, it's been almost four years without comment, soooo...
LaSalle Street Tunnel, this, and Washington Street Tunnel (Chicago) are lame, are rarely edited, and have no views. Obscure subjects badly named. I have combined them here and plan to rename this.
I have edited information from all three into here (again). I left some details out, politics and who contracted what for how many 1888 $$$ type stuff. Anyone who cares more will get one of the refs anyway. I tried to focus on the physical and balance all three tunnels. Somebody worked on "Plans for subways" so I left it intact and moved the refs below in the order they appear in the text. There's a bunch of them.
I think this should be re-named "Cable car tunnels in Chicago". I think more people might be interested in cable cars than tunnels named for Chicago streets. I already made Cable cars in Chicago and think they would probably show up together.
I'll probably work on refs. Sammy D III (talk) 17:13, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  2 August 2013 reword 

message: Cable-car tunnels seems too specific. The article does cover streetcar service, which would be more common? The two other articles (LaSalle Street Tunnel and Washington Street Tunnel (Chicago)) left with their street names get more hits (still very lame) than this does.

Reboyras is developer-friendly. Even if he is in fact developer-friendly, this isn't a citation that demonstrates it. This entry should be composed of cited facts, not someone's opinion. If you want to put in that he is developer-friendly, then cite to something that shows that he has mostly sided with developers and against constituents when making zoning decisions.

message: , what's the intention here? It seems you set up a duplicate article at Asplenium gracillimum. We certainly don't want two articles about the same taxon under two different names, nor would we want one for a subspecies (which generally are treated in the species article, unless particularly distinct / well covered). Could you clarify which epithet is to be regarded as the accepted name? The other name should then be a redirect there, no more. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 15:48, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Nah, not my area at all, so I'll be happy to let you figure that out. But you will notice that, among other things, there are about a dozen redirects from variations of "hen and chicken fern" to Asplenium bulbiferum, so claiming that name (and the Te Reo names) for Asplenium gracillimum will at minimum require a lot of redirect changes. So I'd suggest being sure that this reclassification is sticking before setting up a new article. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 02:51, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
