message: I'm not aware of any country adopting the D'Hont method as it was initially conceived. They all use a "variant" that fundamentally changes the intent and outcome of the method, so IMHO we can't really say these countries really adopted the method, even if they really claim to. Therefore I suggest we change the sentence "The method has been adopted by a number of countries, including" to "Variants of the method have been adopted by a number of countries, including". IMHO even calling that a "variant" is an insult to the original method.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.203.55.82 (talk) 10:02, 14 June 2014 (UTC)

message: I am not convinced that the death date (30 May 1902) is correct, despite the photo of the grave. All books that I found say D'Hondt died in 1901. For example this biographical volume from 1913:

message: What evidence is there justifying to call D'Hondt a mathematician?  
I know of none.  Being a professor of fiscal law, D'Hondt occasionally may have dealt with fiscal numbers.  
D'Hondt is famous for having devised his method for the allocation of seats in proportional representation systems - which also deals with numbers of course.  
However, his dealing with numbers is not enough to qualify him as a mathematician.  I propose to remove the "mathematician".  Or does somebody know of persuasive evidence?

This is English Wikipedia and the articles should have English names, like: General of the Army (PLA), General (PLA), Lieutenant General (PLA).

thread_title:  Did these ranks exist? 

message: I've come across two different dates for the adoption of the current enlisted ranks and insignia.  The articles on the Chinese Wikipedia, presumably written or checked by people likeliest to have first hand knowledge, give the date as 1998.  However, The International Encyclopedia of Uniform and Rank Insignia around the World gives 2000 as the date.  I'm inclined to think that the collectors might not have become aware of the change until 2000, so I used the 1998 date in the article, but I'd like conformation.  Especially since an alternate explanation, that the change was approved in 1998 but implementation was delayed until 2000 is equally plausible.  Caerwine Caer’s whines 23:08, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Arthur Griffith-Boscawen

message: I removed the claim that Griffith-Boscawen was defeated by James Chuter Ede at the Mitcham by-election because in Maurice Cowling's The impact of Labour it says Griffith-Boscawen was defeated by an unamed Independent Conservative. The page on James Chuter Ede claims he entered Parliament in 1923 for South Shields.
:The introduction to Chuter Ede's wartime diaries suggests otherwise. The Times guide to the Commons states that South Shields was a Labour gain in 1929 and that Ede had previously sat for Mitcham. I think Cowling is mistaken or mixing up the elections (remember Griffith-Boscawen was defeated three times in three years). Timrollpickering 08:47, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

In this case h goes to infinity (correct?). However, if the heat flux is very small compared to the conductivity a lumped capacity analysis ought to work.

Talk:Battle of Tippermuir

message: I have removed the references to archers. They are based on Wishart's use of the the term 'saggitarii', which, though it does strictly mean 'archers' would be more accurately translated as 'irregular' infantry. Had the Roayalist army really deployed archers it would be remarkable that no-one - apart from Wishart - took notice. I would be perfectly happy to see the term 'archers' restored if better evidence for their employment can be produced.

thread_title: Archers

message: The archers also appear in a dispatch sent to Ormonde by an Irish officer of Colkitto's brigade ("the Lord Kilpunt commanding the bow-men" ), and in Gordon of Ruthven ("the Atholl and Banzenoch men had swordes, bowes, and fyreockes" ). The references are to the troops who were the left and right wings, respectively.
The comments on cavalry numbers in the current version of the article, however, seem to be based on a misunderstanding: in England, Montrose had command of a cavalry force including some "Northern Horse", (English royalist cavalry) lent by the Marquis of Newcastle; these troopers were left in England, and Montrose had no cavalry at all at Tippermuir (something agreed on by all the primary sources); after the battle, he made a rendezvous with a completely different force of "northern" horse (Scottish royalist cavalry), who provided a new cavalry contingent at the Battle of Aberdeen.

Talk:Battle of Inverlochy (1645)

message: The existing account of this battle fails to pay sufficient attention to the role in the whole campaign played by Alasdair MacColla, who appears, at best, in an auxiliary capacity.  This battle has to be seen as the centre-piece of particular kind of Highland war, which overlapped, but did not coincide with that being pursued by Montrose.  MacColla and Montrose had seperate strategic visions which came together-or were forced together-at Inverlochy.  These visions came apart after Kilsyth, with the result that Montrose's own war ended in disaster at Philiphaugh.

Talk:Battle of Adairsville

message: Some of Johnston's Confederate troops briefly held a blocking position at Adairsville on May 17. The actual confrontation was near Cassville on May 19, where Johnston planned to attack Sherman's left wing with two of his three corps. This plan mismarried when two Union cavalry divisions appeared unexpectedly in the Confederate right rear. The Confederates then withdrew a short distance to a defensive position which turned out to be vulnerable to artillery fire. That night, they began to retreat south of the Etowah River.
