Talk:Patulin

message: During WW2, some British researchers put forward patulin as a treatment for the common cold (http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,791191,00.html?iid=chix-sphere).  
Subsequent research indicated that such treatment was ineffective (http://ije.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/33/2/243)Bustter 16:27, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pybba of Mercia

message: Wouldn't the P in Pybba just be a very bad rendering of the Old english letter Wynn? Considering he's called Pybba/Pibba AND Wybba/Wibba... 
Then it sounds strange to me that the name with the 'P' is considered the official name... 
Compare it to 'ye (olde English/shoppe)' which is just a really bad rendering of the letter th thorn  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.197.115.157 (talk) 17:32, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:William Henry Holmes

message: I have read that William Henry Holmes reported on cannabis residues in clay pipes in Hopewell mounds. Is this true? 
I know that he reported on cannabis sativa fabric in this book of his:
*Prehistoric Textile Art of Eastern United States by William Henry Holmes. Click the top HTML link and search the page for "cannabis". 
:"As if to convey to the curious investigator of modern times a complete knowledge of their weavers' art, the friends of the dead deposited with the body not only the fabrics worn during life but a number of skeins of the fiber from which the fabrics were probably made. This fiber has been identified as that of the Cannabis sativa, or wild hemp. Two of the skeins are shown in plate V."

thread_title:  spelling 

message: I have mentioned the burial of Sæberht, King of the East Saxons, in Westminster Abbey, and have provided source material for this. I have seen the tomb myself and have discussed the history of the tomb with one of the Abbey guides. The source material provided by Walter Thornbury (1878) would appear to be correct, in that King Henry III had the remains of this East Saxon king translated with his wife to Westminster Abbey when the Abbey was rebuilt.Ds1994 (talk) 15:34, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I can't vouch for the knowledge of the Abbey guides, but a 130 year-old reference seemed a bit dated to me. I had a search myself, and every scholar who seems to discuss this in any length seems agreed that the tomb is a medieval fabrication, a bit like the discovery of King Arthur's tomb at Glastonbury Abbey. I've added a couple of references to modern textbooks. Pasicles (talk) 21:08, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be nice to have a picture of Sæberth's tomb to add to the article. There doesn't seem to be any on Wikimedia Commons at the moment, however.

Talk:William Bizzell

message: I am writing to request that the Bizzell Memorial Library be added to the Wikipedia page for William Bennett Bizzell. The library is a major part of Bizzell's legacy, serving as the main library for the University of Oklahoma and providing countless resources for students, faculty, and staff. Given Bizzell's significant role in the library's development, I believe it is appropriate to include it on his Wikipedia page.
I have noticed that the library is currently not mentioned on Bizzell's page, and I think it would greatly enhance the article to include a brief section on the library's history and its connection to Bizzell. I suggest that the section could include information about the library's founding, Bizzell's involvement in its development, and any other relevant details.
Thank you for considering my request. I believe that adding information about the Bizzell Memorial Library to William Bennett Bizzell's Wikipedia page would be a valuable addition and enhance the page's overall quality. Gavinhighberger (talk) 03:23, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Sexræd and Sæward of Essex

message: As discovered in the latest AfD, the reliable sources say very little about the subject, containing only passing mentions. The subject does not thus pass WP:GNG/WP:NBASIC. As per WP:BIOSPECIAL (Part of WP:NBIO), articles that fail WP:GNG/WP:NBASIC but pass one of the "additional criteria" (here, WP:NPOL) must be .

replies: text:   If, for no other reason, because I sincerely believe that we should have individual articles on those who were quite literally the actual kings of entire nations; several at the deletion discussion also thought the same and opposed merging (they just didn't seem to find out about this discussion). But also, because Saeward passes both WP:ANYBIO and WP:NPOL, which we have historically treated as indicators and presumers of notability, even when sources can't be found due to the age and topic of the subject; additionally, the full quote that Ljleppan partially quoted is  – the part stating "a satisfying explanation" seems to imply to me that the articles passing those criteria can be kept despite a lack of sources if there's a satisfying explanation for keeping the article – being the king of an entire nation is certainly one in my opinion. Also, I'm sure there's plenty of other offline book sources, journals and other things mentioning Saeward to write something longer – we just haven't found them yet (a "satisfying explanation" as well, in my view, for a topic like the subject we've got here – there appears to be lots of results on Google Books for "Saeward"/"Sæward", many of which are offline – there's also a few like this that have details of him not in the article when prior to it being merged). One more point, if there is consensus to merge, why should the final title be Sexred and not Saeward or something else? BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:33, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The source you site includes both Sæward and Sexred together, which is an excellent argument in favour of a merge. The reliable sources we have discuss them together, and hence what is said about one often applies to the other. The formal merge reasons are hence overlap, context and short text. I absolutely agree with a move of the joint page to a joint name; either Sæward and Sexred or Sexred and Sæward would be fine, as per WP:AND; perhaps the latter, given the current structure of the article.

Talk:Sigeberht the Good

message: I've noticed that this article reads "East Anglians" a few times instead of "East Saxons":
<BR>
Bede's portrayal of the king owes much to his interest in the conversion of the East Anglians. 
<BR>
On Sigeberht's request, Oswiu dispatched missionaries to evangelise the East Anglians. 
<BR>
it was in Sigeberht's reign that a systematic (re-)conversion of the East Anglians took root.

<BR>Shouldn't "(re-)conversion" be "reconversion"?

Wikipedia talk:Featured article review/Attack on Pearl Harbor/archive1

message: This article has gotten some work done on it recently.  After a sensible discusiion by both sides, some POV comments were removed from the beginning of the article.  I disagree with the viewpoint that it lacks in Japanese comments and an explanation of their reasons for the attack.  To add more would mean to go off topic completely.  The 9/11 and Hiroshima/Nagasaki comments can be removed.  However, the idea that it is US centric is tough to dispute, since most of the contributors are going to be US citizens.  How many British featured articles don't have a strong British POV, for example?  Overall, the article is strong, and should remain a featured article, in my opinion.

thread_title:  Unreliably cited material 

message: So in the Wiki I saw some claims that are contradictory to the source I have. Could anyone provide some more evidences and proofs to support the following claims? Thx!
1. “his denigration of engineers was typical of the Luftwaffe leadership from Göring down.”
One of his long-time and closest friend von Richthofen held a doctoral degree in engineering so how was Jeschonnek denigrated of engineers?
2. “Jeschonnek was a member of the Nazi Party, along with several others in the higher echelons of the Luftwaffe which earned it a reputation as a Nazi service.”
I know he’s a fanboy of Hitler’s and therefore expressed opinions in favor of the Nazi party as early as 1932 but that along wasn’t enough to proof that he was actually a party member. On the contrary, Suchenwirth has explicitly described Jeschonnek to be “never a Nazi”. Any direct proof of this subject? Airakale (talk) 15:06, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I checked your claim about Suchenwirth - he does not say he wasn't a Nazi. He says he didn't assume a simultaneous allegiance to Hitler and the party. Thus it tallies with the Overy source that he eventually became a member of the party. Not that these two acadmeics need to explain themselves to us; they are both acknwoledged experts.  Dapi89 (talk) 09:24, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

text: It isn't on the same page, it is in a foot note, tucked away with the references. A claim by his secretary isn't reliable or worth mentioning. Probably why Suchenwirth saw fit not to include it in the text. The fact remains, evidence exists he was a member of the party, and adored Hitler. No further discussion is required. Dapi89 (talk) 19:41, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, why ignore Von Seidel's opinion? He " calls Jeschonnek a 100-percent Nazi who had taken a personal oath to Hitler.” Given in the same footnote. Dapi89 (talk) 19:57, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

message: "According to the adjutant, he did not hear the shot, despite being only 10 metres (33 ft) from Jeschonnek's office."
That's not what the source says. Suchenwirth is quoting the secretary (Lotte Kersten), and it's she who says she didn't hear the shot. 2A02:AA1:1025:9D11:196E:E9A4:1E:B742 (talk) 00:33, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
