Talk:Maeve Quinlan

message: There reads: Quinlan entered the professional tennis circuit at age 16, appearing in several major tournaments and eventually reaching seed position #95 in world rankings Quinlan was 95 in the WTA rankings in April 1984 earning her a main draw spot in the 1984 French Open. In May 1984 it was 105 giving her a place at Wimbledon, Us Open and Australian Open. She also was the #1 Alternate to the 1984 Olympic for the Women's US Tennis.
I don't know where that is from. While she indeed was a pro, her WTA profile page has these:
Career-high Singles  21-Dec-1986 (424) Career High Singles 1984 was 95 April/May 1984, 105 June 1984. CHECK 1984! Main Draw French Open. 
Career-high Doubles  03-Aug-1987 (501)
That #95 ranking seems to be in some sources, but the original sources do not confirm it. 82.141.126.28 (talk) 14:37, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

message: With a war on and newly married, some 'time out' was not a bad idea - but did it last 10 years?  And who persuaded her to come back?
I have just found a copy of her CD in the 'Grandi Voci alla Scala' (Fabbri Editione) series.
There is the finale to Act 1 of la Traviata, under Tansini, dated 7-Aug-40, Cetra BB25034, which is consistent with a 1941 withdrawal from performance, but there follow 6 recordings in 1949-50, all under Simonetto:
- Donde lieta usci (Boheme) and Senza mamma (Suor angelica) on 5-Dec-49
- Da quell di (Louise) and In qelle trine morbide (Lescaut) on 6-Dec 49
These are on Cetra BB 25271 and 25272
- Sola perduta abbandonata (Lescaut) and the rare Dio pietoso (Alfano - Resurrezione) on 14-Nov-50, Cetra BB 25277
Maybe Simonetto persuaded her back to the studio, before Cilea brought her back to the stage?  .John M Brear (talk) 10:51, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Magda Szabó

message: According to mokka.hu, Mondják meg Zsófikának was published in English as Tell Sally (translated by Ursula McLean, 1963), and Tündér Lala was published in English as The Gift of the Wondrous Fig Tree (translated by Noémi M. Najbauer, illustrated by Katalin Szegedi, 2008). 
I’ve also heard that Tell Sally isn’t a novel for young women in the same sense as Álarcosbál ("Masked Ball") and Születésnap ("Birthday") are: Magda Szabó wrote it primarily for adults, but in a way that young women would also be able to read it. (And it is about three girls between the fifth and sixth grade: Sally, her cousin Marianne, and their classmate Dora.) I’ve read that the novel has a separate edition for young people. --Kletta (talk) 20:59, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

message: The photo description says "Szabó in 1979". However, in 1979 she would have been 62 years old and that is clearly NOT the face of a 62 year old. Isn't it most likely a typo, 1979 instead of 1997 maybe? In 1997 she would have been 80, a lot more plausible given how she looks in the photo.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bluefairy en (talk • contribs) 18:55, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

The redirect may have been in your opinion unhelpful, it even may be that most people would regard it as wrong. But there is no way you can know that it was deliberately done out of spite or malice, or in order to damage the encyclopedia. Thus it is not vandalism.

Talk:Maggie Thompson

message: I added a link and a disambiguation feature for Maggie's husband, Don recently.  I believe that his contributions to comics fandom have been significant enough to warrant his own page, but thought I'd start it here first.
The Lupoff/Thompseon All In Color For A Dime is cited all over the place here.  I just spent a few minutes converting all the entries so that Dick Lupoff's citations linked to his article Richard A. Lupoff, and Don's to the disambiguation page.  His bio in The Comic-Book Book mentions that he was an editor for the Cleveland Press and that science-fiction author Betsy Curtis (same person as this? -- http://web2.airmail.net/tharvia/hugo_authors/curtis.html) was his mother-in-law.  He was awarded a Comicon International (San Diego Comicon at the time) Inkpot Award in 1976 (http://www.comic-con.org/cci/cci_inkpot.shtml), thus passing that part of the notability standards.
He also has an award named after him: http://www.cbgxtra.com/default.aspx?tabid=42&view=profile&uid=2536  and http://www.comicon.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=35;t=000435;p=0

message: Maggie herself has reached out to me with a request for a change here. I will not be making the change myself due to both having retired from article editing and because I have a conflict of interest when it comes to Maggie (we are friends who have hired each other on projects.)
She would like "former librarian" removed from the opening sentence. This is because:
#It is not accurate. She never had the title "librarian" nor the academic credential for same. (She was a "pre-professional assistant children's librarian".)
#It is not part of her notabiiity, just a role she had for about 2 years. Her comics- and fandom-related work are clearly the source of her notability.
#This misplaced emphasis is causing problems elsewhere, causing Google to note her for her librarianship rather than her decades of notable work (yes, I will try to deal with Google separately.)
If there is any further information I can give on this, let me know. Nat Gertler (talk) 00:05, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: Images

message: The size advantage of Uzi (depicted as an example of SMG with telescopic overhung bolt) relative to the MP40 (as an example of traditional SMG) is in most part not due to the overhung bolt construction. The MP40 is deliberately built to be a longer, carbine-like weapon, while the Uzi is purposefully miniaturized. The principal difference lies not in any single design feature but the design philosophy as a whole. 
The MP40 is also portrayed with its folding stock in the open position, the Uzi on the other hand in the retracted position. Difference in size is much less when both firearms are in their shoulder-firing configuration, and even less when both have their stocks folded(as indirectly mentioned in text).
Even though the Uzi obviously benefits from its telescopic action, an almost equally compact SMG would have been possible utilizing the basic construction of the MP40, with the pistol grip moved forward and using a shorter folding stock. Also it is not by any means necessary or very useful to have a 251-millimeter barrel if short overall length is desired.
Especially the weight difference between Uzi and MP40 has nothing to do with the benefits of said design feature. There is no reason to assume that minimizing weight was a design goal for the developers of the MP40, a traditional military weapon identical to many earlier ones in everything but cost of manufacture. There is also no reason to believe the MP40 could not have been made 500 grams lighter if desired.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.133.35.146 (talk) 00:59, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
