Talk:William A. Egan

message: One of the above templates contains the following source text:
(B-Class checklist
(2. It reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain major omissions or inaccuracies.
(B-Class-2=yes
Two glaring omissions are as follows:
1) Egan spent his first four months as governor back in 1959 gravely ill in a Seattle hospital:
2) Egan lost his re-election bid to Wally Hickel in 1966.  There is LOTS which could be written about that.  One very important factor was the fact that the very first Alaska Federation of Natives convention was held 14 days before the election.  Many Alaska Natives used the Egan-Hickel race as a test of their newly-found political power and/or whether or not they were going to be taken seriously by the white political establishment in Juneau.
And one minor point: Sarah Palin was hung out to dry for leaving Juneau's Senate seat vacant for a considerable amount of time during the middle of the legislative session last year.  Well, Egan did the same thing when faced with making a Republican appointment to Juneau's Senate seat in 1963.
Just thought I'd bring that up.  This will likely require more research effort that just a simple Google search, so good luck.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by RadioKAOS (talk • contribs) 05:23, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

The information sheets on the hill (I have just climbed it) relate it to Bodach and make no mention of this. Thinking of the Old Man of Hoy, it seems to me like the old man motif needs no other explanation, so there have to be good reasons for saying it is a corruption - ergo, a citation is absolutely necessary.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.168.123.108 (talk) 21:20, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

message: I know that Mike Stepovich doesn't have the star power of Shirley Temple or Sid Caesar, but how about it?  News stories in the wake of his death have pointed out that his political career was brief, pretty much over after losing to Gruening then Egan.  What may require further examination is that while territorial governor, he was a national political celebrity on a similar plane to what we all came to witness with Sarah Palin a half century later.  Also, the distinction of being the last surviving pre-statehood governor in the United States is not likely to be surpassed anytime soon, if ever.

Perhaps there is a case to be made for using Gaelic place-names for majority Gaelic areas.   However, I'm not aware of any such policy at present.

Talk:Mt. Edgecumbe High School

message: The name of the page is "Mount Edgecumbe High School" but the school is strictly referred to as "Mt. Edgecumbe High School." This is a big deal for alumni of the school and its current students. The page's name should be changed to Mt. Edgecumbe to be more correct. I do not have a online reference but I do currently attend Mt. Edgecumbe and have spoken with some of the original staff and students and they often make it perfectly clear that Mt. is the absolutely preferred label in all contexts. I am not sure as to the spelling or preference of the the Mt. Edgecumbe Volcano but regardless I am certain of the school's name.

thread_title: Opera type

message: The Seven Little Fortunes article basically contains a trimmed down version of the information from the Peking Opera School article. If Seven Little Fortunes were to become a sub-section of the Peking Opera School article, we'd have one slightly stronger article rather than two slightly weaker, overlapping ones.
I believe that if any additional information is found that can improve the Seven Little Fortunes article, it would be equally beneficial and relevant in the Peking Opera School article, so why have separate, but substantially similar, articles? It seems unlikely that some specific information about the Seven Little Fortunes would not also be of interest in the other article.
I therefore propose that the two articles be merged, with the narrower subject, Seven Little Fortunes, being absorbed into the wider-ranging subject, Peking Opera School, as a sub-section of that article. Gram123 (talk) 16:23, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Proposed Merge

message: This article seems to promote people from Hong Kong which are of some notability but valid references as to their having undergone traditional Peking opera training and publicly performed Peking opera are yet to be brought forth. For example, can we find but one instance of Jackie Chan performing Peking opera in character?  Indeed this article should perhaps, more appropriately, be entitled Hong Kong Drama School. In any case, valid references from non-Cantonese sources should definitely be sought after. What is more, the core of Peking opera authorities being in Beijing, we must without question  have their corroboration, through references from Beijing, of the facts mentioned in this article.Iswearius (talk) 05:34, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Pan-Asianism

message: "The word has a long and varied history." I took this out, but would be happy to see it re-inserted if someone can supply some evidence for it. It seems to me that Asia ia a European concept and that pan-asianism was very much influenced by german romantic thinking - an element I intend to work into the article. Like Pan-Africanism, although this can be traced back to the late eighteenth century amongst Africans of the diaspora, it became fomalised as Pan-Africanism precisely by people influenced by German historiography.

thread_title: Untitled

message: I strongly feel that the title of this article would be misleading to those whom do not know this topic in detail. It seems that most of this article is dedicated to pre-World War II ideas of Japanese Pan Asianism, the concept of アジア主義. The problem is, this topic now also refers to modern concepts such as ASEAN and East Asian economic ties, and therefore I am wondering whether a re-direct or re-naming of the page would be appropriate, or a further expansion on the topic to provide modern and historic perspectives.

First of all, Asüna is not considered a failure of the proportions of Edsel. I mean come on... Asüna was a blip on the radar. There were few financial ramifications as a result of its creation and quick disbanding: it cost very little money to rebadge a few pre-existing cars that were already sold in the Canadian market. I can't recall any advertizing money being spent whatsoever. Second of all, how is Asüna "Canada's last automobile brand"? The brand was concocted to sell imported vehicles by GM.

message: In this Wikipedia article it states that Wilber S Nye met Peta Nocona. This needs a citation because Wilber Nye was not posted to Fort Sill until the 20th century well after even the adjusted date of Peta’s death. He most assuredly met with his son Quannah because he met with all the surviving veterans of the Comanche and Kiowa who lived near the post. I have read all of Nye’s books and this proposed meeting with the father is not mentioned. According to the alleged date of the fathers death it was circa 1865 or 1867 and Nye would have been a child at that time. So the citation is probably of a meeting with the son Quannah. 47.24.111.156 (talk) 00:31, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
