Talk:Ancient Chinese coinage

message: I archived the older discussions so this wouldn't get "buried" underneath them, but according to various Chinese sources during the Zhou dynasty some kingdoms issued something called "Bridge money", should I make this into a separate article or integrate it here or in the Zhou dynasty coinage article? --Donald Trung (talk)  15:31, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Bridge money 

message: No, we don't need to gloss (Chinese: ...) in front of the Chinese text the entire way down that page; we never need (pinyin: ...) ever since it's our default romanization and goes without saying; and pinyin isn't a separate language and should be separated by a comma instead of a semicolon from the characters. The detailed Chinese forms of the main topics should use  templates on the right. The very first Chinese gloss can use  if necessary, but everything else down the rest of the page should be using (, pīnyīn) so people can see what the Chinese is, click through to Wiktionary for more details, and quickly get the pinyin if needed.
Similarly, no, you don't ever need to write pinyin (, pīnyīn). If you've italicized that first term, it's already foreign text and that's already where the tone marks should go: pīnyīn (). You generally keep the Chinese characters out of the running text but it's different if you're talking about the exact inscriptions: ...the coins are inscribed  (pīnyīn)... It's only if you have some conventional English alternative that you need to provide a romanization and then run through the rest: ... the Chuyi dynasty minted PY coins (, pīnyīn)... — LlywelynII 05:19, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Dark Fortress

message: The article, as it stands now, is in a terrible state, since the history section has seemingly been blatantly copied off from either the band's own web presence or a fan site. In no way does it constitute academic NPOV. Besides, the history section is too long and too detailed, given the fact that the band is not so notable on an absolute scale (having said that, I'm a fan of DF myself, but please...this is the Wikipedia and not a user review on the Metal Archives). When I get the time, I'll extensively rework this article, cut the history down, and see what I can find on the distinctive quality of DF's music in comparison to other black metal bands. I recall having read several reviews by trusted sources (e.g. Legacy Magazine or the Rock Hard Magazine) specifically pointing out the originality of DF. It would be better to reference this in the article instead of presenting two pages of fanboy rant... Vargher (talk) 12:09, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I have removed the incorrect claim that Guinness Book recognizes Taxila as the world's oldest university.  The Guinness book recognizes a university in Morrocco, see here, as the world's oldest.

message: Why do people feel the need to add text that is plainly not true?  The text mentioned that the Guinness book considered Taxila to be the world's oldest university.  That, however, is not true.  Next, another reference, Hartmut Scharfe's Education in Ancient India was cited as mentioning Taxila to be the world's oldest university.  I read through the relevant pages of Scharfe's book.  Nowhere does he call Taxila a university, let alone the world's oldest!  He is very careful to only refer to it as a center of learning.  Here is what he says: 
It's one thing to make a good faith mistake, but it's another to deliberately cite the Guinness Book or Scharfe's book for a claim, when there is no evidence for it in these sources.  That is falsification, plain and simple!  Fowler&fowler«Talk» 16:48, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Who performed the traditional social welfare and emergency support services that normal national Red Cross organizational performed during the 1945 - 1952 period?

message: Many sources, including the Nuremberg Doctor's Trial transcripts, indicated that Dr. Karl Gebhardt was President of the German Red Cross for part of the Nazi Period.

Talk:Sofronie of Cioara

message: The historian Keith Hitchins does not understand at all the lived Christianity in Transylvania. The people did not and even today do not live some sort of ceremonies. For them being Christian is being in communion with God itself, living in God and with God and through God, and this is a reality which cannot be transmitted as some piece of information, but it can be lived. And yes, it is ancient, but true. And you either live it, and then you can understand it, or you don't live it, but then you cannot understand it and cannot write about it. The orthodox Christianity of the Romanian people was identified with their lives, that is why nothing else counted when their belief was about to be taken away. And even if the Catholic Church with very questionable, far from Christian means managed to break the orthodox unity for about 250 years, we can see now that the orthodox life and beliefs remained. It is true that the communist power brought back the Greek Catholic Church within the Orthodox Church about 50 years ago, but now, when there is freedom of religion, very few returned to the Greek Catholic Church and preferred to remain orthodox. This fact says very much. I am myself from Transylvania and live my orthodox Christianity like many of my co-nationals, so I know what I am talking about.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.114.63.54 (talk) 20:31, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
