message: The phrasing and choice of presentation of facts in the lead paragraph borders on Holocaust denial. The first sentence, which serves as the summary on a Google search: "Herberts Cukurs was a Latvian aviator". Really?? That's the sentence summing up this individual? That's the Wikipedia takeaway? Surely his one-sentence infamy is that he committed war-time atrocities as a leader of a Latvian Auxiliary Police unit (German Sonderkommando), as attested to by multiple contemporary witnesses.

Talk:Hjalmar Siilasvuo

message: The article infobox currently states that Siilasvuo was given the rank Gruppenführer in 1916 from the Imperial German Army. I'm having some trouble with this claim. 
First, the linked article Gruppenführer discusses the paramilitary rank of the Nazi party, so on its face at least the link here is wrong: how could a person have obtained, in 1916, a rank created in 1925? 
Second, the claim is completely unsourced both here and in fi:Hjalmar Siilasvuo. 
Third, the relevant claim in the Finnish article, translated, is as follows: "He obtained the rank of a Gruppenführer, or squad leader". I can't quite figure out whether this is a case of him having been given the exact rank "Gruppenführer", or whether he was put into the position of a group/squad leader, and this then being potentially translated back-and-forth between Finnish and German. For what it's worth, Military ranks of the German Empire does not indicate the existence of such a rank. 
I'll remove the linking for now, as it's rather clearly pointing to the wrong place, but I'd appreciate any sources on this to help figure out whether "Gruppenführer" refers to an actual rank or a position.

Talk:Horace Holley (Baháʼí)

message: I believe that the correct information is that Horace Holley was the Editor of World Order Magazine, not World Unity Magazine. He was much more than that. He was the Secretary of the U.S. National Spiritual Assembly for many of its formative years. He authored the book "Religion for Mankind", a series of well-written essays addressed to an intellectual readership.  He compiled and published an early volume of Baha'i Writings known as "Baha'i Scriptures."  He was selected by Shoghi Effendi to author the summary of activities throughout the worldwide Baha'i community which was published in the "Baha'i World" volumes, as attested by Ruhiyyih Khanum: "[Horace Holley] whom he himself [Shoghi Effendi] had chosen as the most gifted and informed person to write the International Survey of Current Bahá'í Activities, to which he [Shoghi Effendi] attached great importance."  (Ruhiyyih Khanum, The Guardian of the Baha'i Faith, p. 90). Note by Brent Poirier, a Baha'i.  Nov. 12, 2008.24.63.162.219 (talk) 03:38, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Trivial to the subject of the article he is editing, not trivial in general. It's the equivalent of starting a protracted edit war and argument over Global warming (non-trivial to world as whole) on a page because it quotes Al Gore once, despite the article and the quote both having nothing at all to do with global warming (therefore trivial to article). --tjstrf talk  23:54, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Accuracy should be a paramount goal for all articles, let alone this high profile article due to its high sleeze/gossip factor. As far as i can tell Quackguru has a point and consensus should never trump accuracy. If the founder issue is so trivial to the article then remove it.  It takes two parties to edit war and taking the moral high ground because you have more buddies to form a consensus is not going to produce a better article. David D. (Talk) 07:30, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The "co-founder issue" is not the issue. The issue is behaviour across multiple articles, at least some of which do not involve this little syllable. Risker 15:18, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

text: Not to get into the dispute here, but "cofounder" is not fact, because what is or is not a founder is all about perspective. It's just a label, one possible way to describe someone's involvement. Someone even pointed out that you don't call founding fathers of the US, like Washington, a "cofounder". We repeatedly suggested even using alternative wording altogether, avoiding using the word founder at all, but instead Quack made it an issue. So, no, this has nothing to do with facts. -- Ned Scott 02:09, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Han tu 

message: This article previously stated that followers call him Phật Thầy (Buddha Master), but a cursory look on Hoa Hao websites in Vietnamese shows that this title is attributed to a past Buddhist master named Đoàn Minh Huyên instead.  Đoàn Minh Huyên started the Bửu Sơn Kỳ Hương movement, which Huynh carried on through Hoa Hao Buddhism as far as I can tell, and in his own writings refers to Đoàn Minh Huyên as the Buddha, not himself.  Further Hoa Hao websites in Vietnamese keep referring to Huynh as Đức Thầy or Đức Huỳnh Giáo Chủ.  I have provided as good a translation of these phrases in the article as best I could, but I would appreciate someone making updates or improvements if possible.
I may still be wrong, but information on Hoa Hao Buddhism is so scant in English, and my Vietnamese is pretty poor.  Hoping someone with better linguistic skills can correct me.

Both phrases lend to the theory that the degrees were honorary, however, the usage of "D.D." as a suffix was used in a few citations I looked at, which is somewhat suggestive of the legitimacy of the former.

I think it would benefit the profession for someone to take an official stand on the meaning of our name. Are we "beside the doctor," "beyond the doctor," or simply "similar to a doctor."
