replies: text: *It was a tree. I have found a ref and cited it. Well spotted! Baldy Bill (sharpen the razor|see my reflection) 14:43, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: OK I added that to the text for clarity, also, -  the source added suggests the tree itself has been gone for a long time; London Boroughs have only been there for 50 years, within which boundaries have remained almost completely unchanged from when they originally set. So I don't know how the tree would mark boundaries for divisions that didn't exist when the tree did. I am guessing it means a spot of ground, at the cross roads continued to be called the Vicar's Oak for a long time after the tree itself died. And the spot of ground named the Vicar's Oak was used as the boundary marker. Or feasibly as a guess the tree was a parish boundary marker, the boundaries where kept then used again for London Boroughs. I know it's straying from info about a road but I don't think the sentence is clear. I don't want to remove it because I don't necessarily think it's incorrect, just needs clarity.

message: While the article mentions her conflicts with other archaeologists, none is actually named.  I think Donald Lathrap should be named (Meggers is named in Lathrap's Wikipedia article). 73.222.96.76 (talk) 03:28, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  D. W. Lathrap 

message: "Meggers was among the first to examine environmental influences on ancient societies and to frame culture as an adaptation by humans to the environment.[6][7]". Those two references are only to two works by Meggers, not to secondary sources claiming that Meggers was a pioneer.  Actually,  Trigger's book on the history of archaeological thought, published about the same time as the Meggers items, reviews environmental concepts in archaeology, going back long before Meggers was publishing.  Also, Don Lathrap, Meggers's opponent in South American archaeology, was very big on environmental influences, having studied under the geographer Sauer.  And what about Otis Mason and Ratzel (admittedly not specifically archaeologists, but both were concerned with environmental influences on ancient societies long before Meggers) or even Herodotus.  And if Meggers is going to be labeled as one of the pioneers ,  then cite  Meggers, B.J., 1954: Environmental limitations on the development of culture, American anthropologist 56, 801–24.

Talk:Richard Beauchamp (bishop)

message: I'm not going to edit war over the additions, but I'd like to register my dislike of the section, especially the picture. The picture is utterly unrelated to the time frame of the subject of the article, and since there isn't another portrait here, gives the wrong impression of what a bishop of the time frame would have worn. Ealdgyth | Talk 22:18, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. The whole thing seems irrelevant and the picture is (a) inappropriate and (b) not being used in line with Wikipedia:Non-free content guidelines as I understand them. Angus McLellan  (Talk) 23:46, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I too concur. This reminds me of when someone kept inserting a "as seen in this war inspired video game" type section on the Wake Island page, only this may be worse. Also I do not think video games count as "culture". --Henry W. Schmitt (talk) 06:36, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Actually, it is inaccurate. Not just the picture, but the whole statement. Please note that Edward the Black Prince died in 1376. The Hundred Years' War ended in 1453. In no way could Richard Beauchamp, who was first bishop in 1448, have supported the Black Prince. It is inaccurate on time frame and on the protrayal of the man as a general. Richard Beauchamp was involved in the Wars of the Roses, a totally different time frame. Are you sure you even have the RIGHT Richard Beauchamp here? You're off by a good hundred years on the dates. Ealdgyth | Talk 20:43, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Well, there is a Richard de Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick, who fought with King Henry V of England in the Hundred Years' War. I submit that this is much more likely to be the one you're looking for than a Wars of the Roses' era bishop.  Please note that this particular Richard Beauchamp IS a bishop, of Hereford first and then Salisbury, while the other one I just pointed out was a general and knight. Ealdgyth | Talk 20:50, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: In fact, going to the Bladestorm article, I discover that someone has helpfully identified the Richard Beauchamp as the earl of warwick. On that basis, I'm removing the information, as it is not connected to THIS Richard Beauchamp. Ealdgyth | Talk 02:19, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Sipra

message: Word SIPRA used by Filipino Musicians in early 70's which means "LABEL or "MARKING"... They are using LABEL or Mark while studying the Song which they have to perform, they are using LABEL or MARKING in a sheet of Song of Lyrics to be more accurate especially in the part of Musical TRANSITION (in Tagalog >> Musician Term: mga "BAGSAKAN")  because they doesn't have full knowledge about Musical Symbols and Notes so they DEVELOPED their SKILL and TALENT in Music thru "HEARING" so their hearing are more accurate compared to other Musician Learned and Developed by reading and writing of musical theory. 
These Musicians learned by hearing called "MUSIKERO" also they called themselves a "BIYAHERO" because they TRAVELED to Japan, Indonesia, Singapore and other countries which had have an offer for an Entertainer as a group of Filipino Musicians called "BANDA" so they have an A.R.B. LICENSE ( Artist Regulatory Board License ) therefore, in their time Musician must have "ARB LISENCE"
in Early 70's Filipino Musicians use "KAPA" before they learned the word "SIPRA" ... "KAPA" means "Searching" or "Seeking" a CHORDS and RIFF of Piece use by HEARING...

Talk:Hugh de Mapenor

message: Even though it's not entirely the same thing, ought "Magister" to be linked to Magister officiorum, to give readers at least some idea of what the title implies? The title in the post-Roman west isn't actually mentioned in the Magister officiorum article other than a brief "The office was retained in Ostrogothic Italy after the fall of the Western Roman Empire", but it would at least provide some context; it's reasonable to assume that the typical reader's reaction will be "what the hell is a magister?", while those who do have a knowledge of mediaeval titles will likely assume it refers to Master of the Horse. If not linked, it probably warrants an explanatory footnote. – iridescent 15:58, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm away from my books right now, but magister here isn't anything like the office. It means that the person was educated, think Master of Arts, which is what the title evolved into. I can footnote it when I get home to the books. Ealdgyth - Talk 19:26, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
