Talk:Fay Presto

message: Fay Presto's management company has dramatically increased the size of this article, adding a lot of non-neutral content in the process. (However, there may be enough good in there to warrant a major re-edit rather than just reversion.) I've added a NPOV tag and may attempt a cleanup this afternoon, but perhaps it would be better for one of the regular editors of this article to clean it up because I trust they know what is pertinent and what is not.

Talk:Lens (vertebrate anatomy)

message: This showed up recently at Cardinal point (optics)#Surface_vertices but I find no mention of it here at Lens (anatomy): 
In anatomy, the surface vertices of the eye's lens are called the anterior and posterior poles of the lens.
 Is it accurate? Is it important information that should be included here as well? Ewlyahoocom 14:32, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Not that important. With small rodent and fish lenses they are closer to spherical so the most anterior and posterior points are similar to the earths poles. In flatter lenses like humans they are often referred to as the anterior and posterior surfaces. But why get technical at all. Just call them front and back to make it clearer to the average reader.

thread_title: German and Soviet fronts

message: This campaignbox got way too long to be readable - or usable. I decided to reorganise it following the pattern used for the Battle of France. As there is the war took place all over Poland and there were no easily-identifiable fronts (as in "Eastern Front of WWI" or "Western Front in 1944"), I decided to - somewhat artbitrarily - divide the battles as follows:
# First comes the Battle for the Borders, which is probably the only universally-accepted frame
# Then comes the Baltic sea, from Westerplatte to the fall of Hel
# Then all the battles that took place between the end of the Battle for the Borders and September 10 (on that day the Polish forces were officially split onto two fronts)
# Then two sections, one for the Northern Front forces, one for the South
# and finally all the battles against the Soviets.

Talk:Boston campaign

message: That smallpox myth certainly gets mileage.  Before I deleted it the text read "The war also had incidents of biological warfare used by the British. In late 1775 and early 1776, the British Army deliberately infected thousands of American civilians and black slaves - men, women, and children - with smallpox then sent them in order to spread disease behind Continental Army lines and the inhabitants of Continental-held towns in Massachusetts. The ensuing devastation of the Continental Army and the inhabitants."  all false. In the event 500 people left Boston, of whom 3 (three) later came down with smallpox.  They did not cause any losses to the American Army.  Boston had suffered a major smallpox epidemic for the previous two years and it was kept well under control. 3 cases out of 500 people was average, not biological warfare.  (a total of 40 people died from smallpox and 28 from inoculations). click here for actual facts:  Rjensen (talk) 01:21, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Furthermore the text added to this article does not even follow its poor sources--it adds all sorts of exaggerations (three people with smallpox left Boston; the supposed text says "thousands"; the refugees were all kept in isolation far from the American troops and that worked,  As stated in Peters, Smallpox in the New World (2005) Page 42  "His[Washington's] measures seem to have worked, for smallpox did not break out among the American forces near Boston."  The rumors were rife: Washington in Dec 1775 warned a a FUTURE plot: "By recent information...General Howe is going to send out a number of the inhabitants...A sailor says that a number of these coming out have been inoculated with the design of spreading the smallpox through this...camp."  Washington said he did NOT believe the sailor's rumor but he did take precautions like isolating the refugees. see   What historians have done (see Ballard Campbell) is sift out the false rumors that were not true.

message: (Full disclosure: I started reading the book yesterday and am only abut a third of the way through.)
In the article it says:
  "... her grandfather is the Warden of Judas College (based on Merton College, Beerbohm's alma mater)."
However, from what I have read it is pretty clear that Judas College is actually either Wadham or New - at least geographically.  For example, the landau journey from the train station to Judas goes down Cornmarket and then Broad Street (passing Balliol, Trinity and the Bod).  The only two colleges at the end of Broad Street are Wadham and New.  If they had been travelling to Merton, they would not have gone down Cornmarket (and then turned into Broad Street) but from Queen Street just carried on down the High Street (and then turned into Oriel Square).

This is false Mary Gray set up her first school in 1892 (See Justice). She did so as a continuation of feeding local children for several  years. The first school in Glaschu began in 1897, and Tom Anderson did not set up his at South Side School until 1898 (See Clarion & Labour Leader)

Does anybody have access to the original text? The tense of the verb 'nourished' at the end of Verse 2 seems inconsistent. Would it not have been 'nourishes' or 'nourisheth'? I am also slightly unsure of the verb 'tried' in Verse 4. Would this maybe have been 'tries'?
