Talk:Wilhelm Genazino

message: Genazino doesn't seem quite German, unless his ancestors somehow preserved some ancient Germanic-Gothic form...-~Sıgehelmus♗(Tøk) 19:06, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Go ahead, find out. Many Germans come from elsewhere. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:19, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Oh certainly; I was curious because a French surname would suggest either Huguenot or Alsatian origin which is certainly common from historical context, but Genazino - considering its phonetic qualities - seems Italo-Iberian, which would be surprising since he's not Tyrolean as far as I read (although there were some Germans with Italian surnames from the confluence of Austria-Hungary's territories who married inward). I think it's fascinating, and perhaps his surname even suggests some ancient noble origin that stuck. I shall try to see, although I'm doubtful my  efforts will be fruitful in this case.-~Sıgehelmus♗(Tøk) 21:42, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title: Bumface

message: There are contradictory details about when and how he left the army. Under 'Early life' it says 'his commission was terminated in 1988', which choice of words seems to suggest he was forcibly thrown out of the army for some misdemeanor or made reduncant (it was the 90s not the 80s that saw officers and soldiers being made redundant). Quite rightly I think a 'clarification needed' is put against the statement. However, under 'Rugby career' it states he resigned from the army - therefore inferring he decided to leave - in 1987.Cloptonson (talk) 12:03, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

Talk:It's Too Late to Stop Now

message: I have added a POV tag to one section of this article.  While I actually agree that it's a magnificent album, phrases like "best compositions", "superb backing band and orchestra" and "electrifying performance" are clearly opinions, not neutral encylopedic facts.

message: Per your POV tag, I removed the "offending enthusiastic adjectives" that have been a part of the article (and not tagged)  for two years, and therefore removed the POV tag.

message: The article says: "The Appleby dialect is a diasystem of the Cumbrian dialect spoken around the Penrith and Eden district area." If the Wikipedia entry for diasystem is correct, this usage of diasystem is not correct. I'd suggest "variant" or something similar, but maybe there's a correct linguistic term for that. (I'm not a native speaker, but I can't detect any difference between the way words are used in Penrith and Appleby.

Talk:Alford, Lincolnshire

message: Hi . Regarding this edit ("Higgins and Eardley need Wikipages before adding"), the standard for inclusion in such a list is that someone is notable, not that there is a Wikipedia article about them. It seems to me that Higgins is notable - hence why I added him. See WP:CSC on this. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:29, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Not so, see lists for other towns. If you have such referenced information you can make a "stub" page for the person and bob's your uncle. Won't take you long. Entries under Notable People should not be short biographies, just one-liners with name (dates), occupation, local connection, wikilinked to the appropriate page. Other information on a person with no Wikipage could appear in a History or Heritage or whatever section if it's relevant to the town's history. Standardization may seem boring, but it's a big help to users. Bmcln1 (talk) 08:23, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

Talk:William Lloyd Webber

message: I am sorry to repeat myself (cf. Talk:Julian Lloyd Webber and Talk:Andrew Lloyd Webber#Miscellany), but as with Andrew Lloyd Webber, William's last name is Webber, not Lloyd Webber. As his son Julian states in an interview , "Lloyd" is the middle name. --FordPrefect42 20:52, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: But professionally, as stated in your reference, the family use the names Lloyd Webber.  This is also evident across the internet cf: Google Lloyd Webber as opposed to Webber - all music encyclopaedias including Grove list them under L for Lloyd Webber. While Williams middle name was Lloyd, there was obviously a move to keep Lloyd Webber as a professional surname for his sons and they are all referred to as the Lloyd Webber family. Why wikipedia should single itself out as being the only source to catagorise them under Webber I haven't got a clue. Even the Webber disambig page doesn't mention William or Julian. If you were searching for Andrew Lloyd Webber would you really look for Andrew Webber?
Read the article Andrew Lloyd Webber and count the references to Lloyd Webber did this/that...
Why haven't you changed these to Webber?
Mdcollins1984 07:50, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

text: I tried once, but I really don't have the time to watch the article at every instant and revert every attack of vandalism and/or stupidity. Call me inconsequent if you like, I would prefer to have this question settled once and for all. Concerning your Google and references arguments: "Eat shit, millions of flies can't be wrong!" Or, to put it less drastically: if a piece of malinformation is reproduced millionfold, it still is erroneous. You are wrong btw concerning the reference: it does not state the family uses the name Lloyd Webber. It rather states that William adopted the double name professionally, but there is no statement how exactly the sons have adopted the middle name. Anyway, for the moment the cited interview is the best source concerning this question. Your assertion that there was "obviously a move" is pure speculation. Convince me of the opposite, but give me good reason: give me facts! --FordPrefect42 15:29, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
