Talk:Canadian Rockies

message: There's quite a bit of ranges missing here, mostly from the Northern Rockies - Muskwa Ranges, Hart Ranges; the ranges already listed here I've structured hierarchy listings for on Continental Ranges and its subpages, whichever may exist.Skookum1 06:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Range listing/hierarchy not complete

message: This page is a little lacking in details on how the range was exactly formed. The Canadians rockies, i believe,  were formed by the accretion of several microcontinents to the edge of north america, these mountains represent the collision between these microcontinents and NA, as i understand it.The mountains represent the old edge of north america and the lithotechtonic border between the precambrian north american craton and later added microcontinents that underlay british columbia. A subduction front in an ancient ocean basin subducted that ocean and pulled the microcontinents onto the edge of north america. This makes them of a different nature to the american rockies. The american rockies were formed most likely by an unusual subduction of the farallon oceanic plate underneath north america. Plates tend to dive into the earths crust at an angle so they n tend to not scrape along the underside of a continental plate for very far. However with the farallon plate, the plate scraped along the underside of north america pushing up the rocky mountains deep into the precambrian north american craton. This may have been due to, from what i have heard, north american being pushed on top of the oceanic plate, or a shallow angle of subduction. The edge of the american rockies are therefore not a lithotechtonic boundary but lie deep within the north american craton. Millueradfa (talk) 19:49, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

message: I've re-arranged the sections of the article, and moved the non-text parts to list articles. I'm hoping by doing this, editors can continue to broaden the article. For example, compare this article to Rocky Mountains: notice that that other article has extensive sections on Human History, Tourism, and Industrial Development. I don't have any handy reference material for such sections, but I bet other editors do. —hike395 (talk) 20:28, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Talk:John Amadu Bangura

message: There is some complete mix-up. Bangura was a military who took over from the military rule of Andrew Terence Juxon-Smith. He was never Governor-General, as those were at that time place in SL by the colonial force from Britain. He was Chairmen of the National Reform Council, just like Juxon-Smith and Ambrose Genda before him. He was then ruled-out by military man Patrick Conteh, who indeed gave the power back to the legal administration under Siaka Stevens. So basically Conteh and Bangura are mixed up. --Chtrede (talk) 08:31, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mix-up 

message: I have corrected the article. He did not die on 29 March 1970. I can't find an exact death date despite researching, all I can find is that he was executed "swiftly" following his attempted coup against Stevens on 24 March 1971 (The timing seems correct for the death date to be off by exactly one year but I'm going to leave it at just 1971 without a reliable death date source). I have also removed seemingly incorrect information and replaced it with what reliable sources say. MarkiPoli (talk) 17:13, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tennessee Children's Home Scandal 

message: I'm boldly removing this from the lead, posted 14 December 2021:
*"He allied with African American political organizers to help secure Federal funds from Republican administrations. Once Franklin Roosevelt was in power as president Crump turned on them and attacked them. He told an interviewer, "You have a bunch of niggers teaching social equality, stirring up racial hatred. I am not going to stand for it. I’ve dealt with niggers all my life, and I know how to treat them."
-- 1) Nothing like this is mentioned in the article text.
-- 2) The way it's worded, it isn't clear without close reading that Crump is referring specifically to some (not all) African American political organizers, and not to the general Black voting population - which, in my understanding, Crump was always careful to cultivate. All this is discussed in the second paragraph in the Politics section.
-- 3) The N-word: Without getting into a discussion of Wikipedia's policy on censoring, the direct quote seems unnecessary, and unnecessarily provocative. Regardless of whether Crump used the word in reference specifically to the organizers he was angry at, or to Blacks in general, at that time and place it was used in general conversation among Whites. What he said to the interviewer could pretty easily be summarized in an indirect quote - if it's felt useful to include at all.

Talk:John Chancellor (colonial administrator)

message: Someone added, probably copying from a book of Rose:
: Oliver Tweedy, a British journalist who covered the Middle East, wrote Chancellor admitted to him that he did not like the Jews, calling them "an ungrateful race".Evyatar Friesel, 'Through a Peculiar Lens: Zionism and Palestine in British Diaries, 1927-31, Middle Eastern Studies (1993), vol. 29, no. 3, pp. 419-44.
That source reports on diaries and private correspondence of Tweedy and Chancellor, but it does not appear to contain a statement that Chancellor said such a thing to Tweedy.  Tweedy described Chancellor as "stable and honest, searching for a middle way in a country where everybody tended to extremes" (p427), though I'm not sure Tweedy is notable enough for this to go into our article.  The phrase "an ungrateful race" appeared in a letter Chancellor wrote to his son Christopher (p428). Zerotalk 08:39, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Swinging Radio England

message: The article originally contained only factual material citing sources including Eric Gilder and Svenn Martinsen, but it seems to have degenerated into comments by people who had no knowledge of the station or the times during which it operated. I agree with Lee M's removal of nonsense comments, but the addition of comments about Radio Caroline is not relevant due to the fact that during the 1960s Radio Caroline was a professional commercial radio station operated by members of the British Establishment, and later it came to be a free for all operation run on a shoe string by amateurs. (Contrary to popular opinion, Ronan O'Rahilly was not the driving force behind the original Radio Caroline, he was a mere figurehead. The station was financed in 1963 by bankers, a magazine publisher and other members who would be considered to be a part of the British Establishment of the early 1960s. This included the people behind Radio Atlanta which merged with the Radio Caroline organization in 1964.) 
With regards to the twin station concept, it is not technically possible to compare what Caroline was able to do in the later 1970s and early 1980s with what SRE/BR accomplished during the 1960s, due to the fact that like everything else, things were a lot more primitive back then. This article should be based more on the continuing web site work of Svenn Martinsen of Norway who has been able to compile authentic, documented source material from various contributors involved with the stations. The Martinsen site has become the gold standard by which to judge all current articles about this subject, and unlike this article, the Martinsen article has a long list of citations and documented footnotes supporting it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.128.82.238 (talk) 03:01, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Edmund Dudley

message: Just wanted to give my thought to the year of birth of Edmund Dudley. According to wikipedia it's either 1462 or 1471-72. Well, we know that Dudley was made a privy councellor by Henry VII at the age of 23. That is well documented in contemporary sources. For Dudley to have been born in 1462 and to have joined the privy council at the young age of 23 he would've been joining the council in 1485 (1462+23) which would mean that he joined the same year as Henry VII was made king (which is highly unlikely. In Tudor times it was not, as it is today, benefitting for a person to be young. On the contrary. To get a seat at the privy council you would have to have had a very close connection to the king or to have played a major role at the war of the roses. Dudley had neither). Also, if you look at the painting of Empson, Henry VII and Dudley, Dudley seems to be quite a lot younger than the others. Maybe even as much as 20 years. I know that you can't judge age by looking at a painting especially when you have no clue as to who painted it or when, but still, I will argue that the YOB of 1462 is definitely wrong not only due to the discrepancies previously pointed out, but also because it would mean that Dudley would've been just 5 years the junior of Henry VII and that is underestimated as far as I'm concerned.
