Talk:SM Sultan

message: Pending additional verification, I've removed the statement, "He was declared the Man of Asia in 1982 by University of Cambridge." 
The earliest source I've found for this is a 2005 bdnews24 article, which states "Cambridge University conferred him on [sic] the 'Man of Asia' in 1982." () A 2008 article in The Daily Star gives a different name for the honor, "In 1982, he was conferred the 'Man of Achievement' award by the Cambridge University." ()
I'm concerned that these sources may not be reliable on this point. Tertiary sources like Banglapedia and the Historical Dictionary of the Bengalis that list his other awards don't mention this one. I've not found any source at the University of Cambridge, or in the United Kingdom, or any more contemporaneous source from anywhere that says Cambridge awarded SM Sultan anything or that they ever conferred "Man of Asia" or "Man of Achievement" on anyone. There is a company, International Biographical Center, that bills itself as being "of Cambridge" and that issues "Man of Achievement" awards. Could they have issued one to SM Sultan, and could the newspapers have misunderstood that? 
Can anyone provide a more reliable reference, especially one that predates the 2005 article and the "Man of Asia" statement being published in Wikipedia?

Talk:Queen Charlotte Sound (Canada)

message: Only 26km wide?  Are there boundaries given anywhere?

thread_title: 26km wide??

message: I just made a map showing Queen Charlotte Sound, as well as Hecate Strait and Dixon Entrance, as defined by BCGNIS (and by the A-B Line for Dixon Entrance). I'm not sure whether the map couldn't be better, so am only adding it here for now. Any thoughts? The text seems readable, but could perhaps be made a bit larger. Perhaps a focus on just Queen Charlotte Sound and Hecate Strait would be clearer, leaving Dixon Entrance for another map -- after all the international boundary and A-B Line add complexity to both the map and the caption that doesn't serve much purpose on the Queen Charlotte Sound page. In any case, I thought I'd add it to this page, since the map that was here didn't show Queen Charlotte Sound well at all, and see what kind of feedback I get -- and think about it a bit myself.

Talk:Thioamide

message: I am confused, all reference texts I have found about thioamides use the spelling "thionamide". Perhaps this is an English spelling vs. US spelling, but I feel it should be checked and factored into the article. thanks
(responding to above)
I'm not sure where you're from, but I've never before seen thionamide in the US.  I did a quick search of ACS article titles, and "thionamide" appears in a title only once, in 1970, whereas "thioamide" appears over 30 times.  Thinking maybe it was a British spelling/pronunciation, I checked the British journals.  Searching RSC article titles showed no instances of "thionamide", but 24 of "thioamide".

message: I will be replacing images on the various map projection pages. Presently many are on a satellite composite image from NASA that, while realistic, poorly demonstrates the projections because of dark color and low contrast. I have created a stylization of the same data with much brighter water areas and a light graticule to contrast. See the thumbnail of the example from another article. Some images on some pages are acceptable but differ stylistically from most articles; I will replace these also.
The images will be high resolution and antialiased, with 15° graticules for world projections, red, translucent equator, red tropics, and blue polar circles.
