thread_title: Untitled

message: Every single journal article I've read on Zayas (and that's a lot) refers to her in English as simply "Zayas".  Therefore, for all future writers, please avoid the very akward sounding "De Zayas".  Also, shouldn't we be actually translating the titles?  I understand that the primary English translation (actually, the only full one that I'm aware of) is Boyer's, but unless we specify that, I think as editors we should provide a literal translation, and then perhaps add a footnote or simply point out in the bibliography that the English edition was given a different title.Matthew Stuckwisch (talk) 21:58, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Vicente Espinel

message: I am a student and admirer of Vicente Espinel and of the Espinela and at the same time a student of the evolution of the guitar. Upon reading the Wikipedia entry on Vicente Espinel, I came upon the sentence, He is credited with the addition of the 5th string to the guitar.  This is a very old and familiar canard, passed along freely as fact among admirers of Espinel and his work who are not knowledgeable about the evolution of the guitar in Europe. The precise wording of the myth in the entry reflects precisely the common way the myth is worded in Spanish: A Espinel se le atribuye haberle añadido la quinta cuerda a la guitarra. 
The myth can easily be disproved, however. First, there was never a five-string guitar in Europe, but rather a 5 course guitar, consisting of between 9 and 10 strings. Second, the Spanish composer and music theorist Juan Bermudo (1510-1565) evidenced the existence of the five course guitar in 1555—in his treatise Declaración de Instrumentos Musicales—5 years before Espinel’s birth in 1550. So clearly, the popular attribution of increasing the guitar’s stringing from 4 courses to 5 to Espinel is false.
Tom and Mary Anne Evans, Guitars: From the Renaissance to Rock, London: Paddington Press, 1977, p. 24: "The first incontrovertible evidence of five-course instruments can be found in Miguel Fuenllana's Orphenica Lyre of 1554, which contains music for a vihuela de cinco ordenes. In the following year Juan Bermudo wrote in his Declaracion de Instrumentos Musicales: 'We have seen a guitar in Spain with five courses of strings.' Bermudo later mentions in the same book that 'Guitars usually have four strings,' which implies that the five-course guitar was of comparatively recent origin, and still something of an oddity." cumpiano (talk) 17:56, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Johnny Halliday cover

message: Tony Anderson, older brother of Yes singer Jon Anderson, is reported by many sources to have sang in a band called "Las Bravos". I have been trying to clarify whether this is actually Los Bravos. The italian wikipedia article :it:Los Bravos actually reports Tony Anderson as being a member of Los Bravos, but this goes unreferenced. A quoted Google search "Tony Anderson Los Bravos" reports a single link () along with the suggestion to change the search to "Tony Anderson Las Bravos". In favour of the "Tony Anderson in Los Bravos" argument, it must be mentioned that Los Bravos recorded for Decca, and Tony Anderson did as well (with The Warriors (British band)). If the bands are one and the same, it should be clarified why both names widely appear on Google (did they change name at some point of their career)? Moongateclimber (talk) 09:23, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Update: the mentioned single link for "Tony Anderson Los Bravos" mentions Tony Anderson as "Andy Anderson". A search for "Andy Anderson Los Bravos" actually return lots of Google hits. It thus seems reasonable to conclude that the italian wikipedia is right about Anderson being in Los Bravos; he must have changed its pseudonym from Tony to Andy sometimes along the way. Now the question remains if the name "Las Bravos" is altogether incorrect or a variant that the band actually used. Moongateclimber (talk) 09:30, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Name issue (Las vs Los) and Tony Anderson membership

message: For the record, I would be surprised is "Las Bravos" was ever used - the correct Spanish is "Los Bravos".
Also, note that the normal Spanish naming system is two surnames, the first is the primary surname and the second is sometimes omitted. So Jesús Glück Sarasibar might be referred to as Jesús Glück.
The Discogs site now mentions Anthony Anderson. I suspect Andy Anderson was a mistake or misunderstanding.
http://www.los-bravos.com/english/biography.html refers to Anthony Anderson.
The Spanish wikipedia lists the original members as:
*Michael Volker Kogel Sumaya "Mike Kennedy" (Berlín, 25 de abril de 1944)
*Antonio "Tony" Martínez Salas (Madrid, 3 de octubre de 1944 - Colmenar Viejo, 19 de junio de 1990)

message: This sentence needs a cleanup:
"Xu Fu a man from Qi was sent by the Qin emperor to find immortality near the sea of Japan he had many provisions and men even children but he disappeared he is a famous navigator sorcerer and alchemist depicted in legend and narratives in China and Japan to have become a immortal and from this it is quoted in theater and in verse."
I can't quite sort out what is meant.  It sounds like the intent is to say:
"Xu Fu a man from Qi was sent by the Qin emperor to find immortality near the Sea of Japan.  He was sent with many provisions and men, but he disappeared while on his expedition.  He is a famous navigator, sorcerer, and alchemist depicted in legends and narratives in both China and Japan.  In these narratives, he is said to have become immortal."
However, could somebody else put eyes on this to see if I got it right?  I'm worried that I'm missing something due to (1) not having access to the original translation and (2) neither reading nor speaking any dialect of Chinese. 98.166.133.174 (talk) 20:47, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Yeii

message: Okay, the previous version of this article...sucked.  There was a lot of New Age airy-fairy nonsense about "living in harmony with nature" and most of the references were to ethno-knicknack merchants (one of them in the UK!!!) who are not exactly going to challenge their target market's conception of Native Americans as paintin' with all the colors of the @#$*ing wind.  The Navajo don't live in harmony with nature as Modern Westerners understand the idea (as in, something distinct from humans); they strive to live in hozhon, which is an idea of cosmic order not unlike the Tao, or maybe the Torah or Aristotle's Golden Mean (or the Egyptian idea of Maat, perhaps) that includes every aspect of life.  The whole thing is based on an idea of moderation and obligation that essentially tosses Male and Female Lightning at every individualistic, "liberationist" Western cultural movement of the last four hundred years--hardly the theme to sell well to trendy Europeans or the holistic medicine set in America!  Or in other words, "Diné binahagha' bił doo yá'át'ééh, yá?

This article, together with several others on early English Bibles, gave the impression of depending too heavily on the Encyclopedia Britannica of 1911. Some errors seemed to have rippled through from one article to another. The articles in question include those on the Matthew Bible, Jacobus van Meteren, and Early Modern English Bible translations. (The article on the Great Bible is the least affected.)
There has been a lot of Bible research since 1911. A more reliable starting point for research in this area is Herbert's extremely detailed and careful Historical Catalogue of Printed Editions of the English Bible 1525–1961, dating from 1968. I have therefore edited the articles in question so that they at least no longer contradict Herbert, although they still contain unsourced material that is not supported by Herbert. Also it was necessary to create an article on the Coverdale Bible of 1535. 
from chloe kent.
The King was becoming impatient with the slow progress, especially in view of his conviction that the Pilgrimage of Grace had been substantially exacerbated due to the rebels' exploitation of popular religious ignorance. With the bishops showing no signs of completing their task, Cromwell gave official approval to the Matthew Bible as an interim measure in 1537, the year of its publication under the pseudonym "Thomas Matthew". The Matthew Bible combined the New Testament of William Tyndale, and as much of the Old Testament as Tyndale had been able to translate before being put to death the prior year for "heresy."
The word heresy in parens is editorializing.

Talk:Hopae

message: Hopae Sool is a Korean martial art systematized by grandmaster Seoul Taekkyun master Do Ki-Hyun, and passed down to Czech Republic Taekwon Do master Martin Zámečník. In 2018, Hopae Sool (ČSHP) was also founded and regular trainings and seminars started, with the first seminar conducted in February Prague.
Hopae were identification tags carried by Koreans during the Joseon dynasty, recording the bearer's name, place of birth, status and residence. The tags consist of the person's name, birthdate, and where they were born. The hopae system helped the government in tax collection and retrieving runaway slaves.
The Hopae itself is a flared section of flat hardwood from 5 to 12 inches in length, with a hole in the narrow end through which runs a loop of thick cotton cord. The instrument serves as a short baton when gripped around the narrow end, and may be used for parrying, striking and thrusting; and it serves as a flail when the cord is looped around the thumb and hand, wherefore it is swung with great force, or used for wrapping techniques.
Various maneuvers similar to those in Nunchaku-do may be performed, and a trademark maneuver is transitioning the instrument back and forth from club grip to a flail grip by wrapping and unwrapping the cord around one's hand during swinging. Beef Potato (talk) 06:00, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
