Talk:Pierrot le Fou

message: The procedure to be followed with foreign-language films which retain their original, non-English-language title when they are distributed in the English-speaking world has been discussed on previous occasions, with a majority consensus having been reached that such titles should adhere to English-language orthography (thus, "Pierrot le Fou", not "Pierrot le fou").  The specific pro and con arguments need not be rehashed here, but those wishing to survey the matter or comment further, are invited to review the July-August 2010 exchange at Talk:La Strada#Upper or Lower case—Roman Spinner (talk) 00:48, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Unclear reference to Greek Mythology 

message: Roger Vadim is called Brigitte Bardot's "svengali" in the article. But the word svengali presupposes evil intent. As I see it there are 3 options:
# It's an oblique reference to some wrong R.V. did B.B. which is assumed to be well-known but is not.
# It's a weird case of POV against R.V.
# It's a wrong choice of word by an editor.

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: I removed the surname "Récamier" from Angela and added it to Émile. My only official source is the IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0055572/ and I hope that's enough, but if you follow the dialogue you'll notice that Jean-Claude Brialy's character identifies himself as Émile Récamier when he calls Alfred's neighbor, while only their own neighbor ever calls Angela "Madame Récamier". As we hear that the lead couple's not married yet, it's unlikely she'd share his name. The logical inference is that the neighbor mistakenly assumes they're married and gets her surname wrong.

Talk:Eustace III, Count of Boulogne

message: Eustace was definitely Ida's son. The evidence comes from a charter dated 1096: "Ego Ida Boloniensis comitissa...in idipsum filiis meis Godefrido, Eustachio et Balduino mihi cooperantibus" (I, Countess Ida of Boulogne...together with my sons Godfrey, Eustace, and Baldwin). See Opera diplomatica et historica, ed. Miraeus & Foppens, Vol. I.
In a charter of Eustace III dated 1122, we find: "Ego Eustacius, Dei gratia, Boloniensium comes...matrisque mee Yde, comitisse, et fratrum meorum Godefridi, Ierosolomitani regis, atque Balduini, qui ei in regno successit". (I, Eustace, by the grace of God, Count of Boulogne...my mother countess Ida, et my brothers Godfrey, King of Jerusalem, and Baldwin, who reigned in succession.).

Talk:Ballistic nylon

message: The strap in the picture (of the diving watch) is not made from ballistic nylon. It's pretty obvious that it doesn't use a basketweave. 
Ballistic Nylon - A specific nylon developed by Dupont for the U.S. Department of Defense for use in flak jackets.  Later it was replaced by Kevlar.  The basket-weave construction helps add abrasion resistance as opposed to a plain weave.  The name is used as a marketing tool with ballistic sounding like something "bulletproof" therefore really tough.  Many motorcycle apparel companies us the word "Ballistic" when describing material.  In many cases the material's tear and abrasion strength does not meet a minimum standard for motorcycle apparel and the word is used only as a sales gimmick. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.178.8.81 (talk • contribs) 10 September 2005
1050 denier ballistic nylon is better quality than 1680, but how does 1050 compare to 2520? Is 2520 woven with a 2-ply weave like 1050 or with a thick single yarn like 1680? Does 2520 become fuzzy as easily as 1680? If 2520 is stronger than 1050, is it just as strong for its denier weight or is it only stronger because it is much heavier? —Preceding comment added by 99.232.52.30 (talk) 22:04, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
