Talk:Marie-Thérèse Assiga Ahanda

message: Hi! I'm planning on adding a substantial amount of information to this article (~1800-2000 words) as an assignment for a class I am currently in. I may reword some sentences in the stub so it flows better with the personal life section or vice versa. Once I add this, please feel free to add or remove anything you see fit! Looking forward to collaborating!

Talk:Oliver Franks, Baron Franks

message: Come on, the sole source for this claim begins the paragraph by saying, "There is a wonderful story, which may or may not be true, but is worth telling anyway, about a similar litany of desires. According to urban legend..." and yet it's written here as if it were an attested fact.

Talk:Paul White, Baron Hanningfield

message: Why is this guy called Right Honourable, an appellation that goes along with being a member of the Privy Council, if he is not a Privy Councillor?
:All peers have this prefix. Margaret Thatcher was - strictly speaking - The Right Hon The Baroness Kesteven.  Privy Councillors also use this prefix, but it isn't unique. The Parson's Cat (talk) 15:17, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Really?? Margaret Thatcher was a long-standing member of the Privy Council long before she was a Baroness, so your example is worthless, and I suspect you're wrong anyway. Harfarhs (talk) 22:04, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: You're absolutely right about Margaret Thatcher - bad example.  I think I was probably wrong about her being Baroness Kesteven too - it would have been Baroness Thatcher of Kesteven.  (I've since learned that peers' titles depend on how they appeared in The London Gazette.)  However, I do believe I was right about the prefix 'The Right Honourable'.  I was taking what I got from A&C Black's Titles and Forms of Address, but I've found some very convincing evidence in the form of a Hansard article Use of "Right Honourable" dated 21 July 1989.  I know this is a late response, but I hope it will be useful in future. The Parson's Cat (talk) 19:19, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Bruriah

message: I believe that this story is not actually in the Talmud, but rather is in medieval commentaries that date from centuries later. Rashi mentions the story. By that time, Beruriah had become something of a legend. The stories that circulated about her in the Middle Ages have more the flavor of Medieval France than of the Talmudic period. These stores were, in effect, a way of questioning the wisdom and propriety of letting a woman become educated. I notice that some contemporary commentaries about her simply omit this material, apparently because it was nothing more than a scandalous legend that served a purpose at a later time in history. --Metzenberg 23:00, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's been suggested that certain more embarrassing stories were edited out of the Talmud during the Geonic period (can't remember where I saw it). I would hardly think Rashi made it up, more likely he had the text of some medrash. And there are numerous women mentioned in the Talmud in some capacity as a sage just usually not by name (again can't remember of hand but try the end of the sixth perek of Brachot).Wolf2191 01:23, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Birthplace? 

message: I removed the bit about her playing French horn on an album for a few reasons, which I'd like to detail here.  I'm open to serious discussion about this, but please note - I removed it because it was completely unsourced and it was re-added by someone with a clear agenda of stalking my edits and insulting me.  There is good reason to believe that this is a well-known usual suspect who has been obsessed with me and my family for years.  Please don't restore his work without having a very good reason to do so.
Now, regarding the tidbit that I removed.  It was originally unsourced and was added originally way back in 2008 in this edit.  Because it is a "cute factoid" we should be cautious about later casual mentions of it in otherwise reliable sources due to the well-known problem of "citogenesis".  So let's examine the 4 sources.  The most impressive is perhaps the original research of actually linking to the liner notes which doesn't actually support the claim - the name given there is different..    Another is a very dubious and tabloidy listicle called "11 of the Hottest Female Writers in the World" from a website called "TheRichest" - not the sort of thing that we would normally consider a reliable source - and the writeup there reads like a regurgitation of the Wikipedia entry.  The date of the article, it should be noted, is significantly after the unsourced 2008 addition to Wikipedia.  The archived link to The Daily Beast returns a page that doesn't even mention this factoid at all, and so hardly counts as a source.    And finally we have the only source that would in any way seem to support the claim, here: .  The main problem with this one is that the factoid is mentioned as an aside in a list of facts easily culled from Google/Wikipedia and so there is good reason to be concerned again about citogenesis.
In my judgment, in a quality encyclopedia, none of this rises to the level that we should insert it.  It doesn't seem particularly important to her biography, although it is as as I say a "cute" fact that adds color.  As we know, such facts tend to be repeated endlessly in the media whether true or not.  We don't have to go along with it and should wait until there is a more thoughtful confirmation.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 19:13, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
